Hope you have a good day, hiker. Sorry to hear that noises are bothering you again. I need to do some laundry also.
I visited both services at the other church today and THREE people stepped up to take on Operation Christmas Child there. I'm so thrilled!!
They took all of the boxes I had. I think I had at least 25 boxes. I will bring them more this week. So much interest. Many of them had heard of it and some had even packed boxes before. Now, we have them organized! One lady thanked me three times for coming. Go God!
Our air conditioner was struggling last night. It had run out of freon. Our neighbor is an AC repairman so he has already taken care of it.
We may need a new unit soon. Isn't THAT fun?
Hubby is going through some changes with his second show. So he's still up at church practicing. He has a show tonight with the #1 show.
Hope everyone is doing OK today! We're about to get more rain. Bring it on! I'm hoping for a pretty fall!

I hope I can get some exercise today. It's finally nice weather.
Yesterday I did some painting on a wood panel I bought a while ago. Maybe that's why I'm so tired. It's quite a job to clean up all the paint and brushes when I'm done. At least it's not as bad as when I got decoupage on a pair of pants. Instead of scrubbing out, it made holes.
I know what you mean, Hiker, about the noise. I f go back to the church I used to go to, I'll have to sit way in the back.
This is the first year our air conditioner didn't need more coolant. Last year the repair company finally found the ten leaks that were causing all the trouble.

Shucks. Wondered why I felt so hot. Am running a fever of 101.5,
My friend told me there is a virus going around. This is the second time in a week that I have been ill and I am not even teaching anymore.
Tutu--hope the severe storms pass you by. They are coming to us tomorrow.
As soon as my comfy pj's are out of the dryer I am heading to bed.

Hiker .. I think the storms will miss us. I'm keeping watch.
I hope you get to feeling better. I hate being sick!!!
Lyme248, my repairman said once they start leaking, the end is near. I wonder if he can find the leak? He said they just wear out...the copper tubing, etc.
It's about 12 years old.

Thanks for getting us started Hiker! Hope you feel better. Josh is sick from a cold or something and called out for tomorrow.
No exercise but did spend a lot of time in the kitchen. Had some frozen left over meaty prime rib bones and made a tasty chock full of veggie soup, mainly for Josh, but all 3 of us enjoyed it.
Did one load of laundry and ironed a pair of pants for Josh that my Mom repaired.
Thanks Manna for posting what your hubs does for detox. I mix chlorella in my juice and do green French clay too! Glad I'm on the right page. Also enjoyed reading how your kids help out.
Oh no TuTu! AC's are pricey! My Mom's BFF had to get a new unit a couple weeks ago and it cost around $4,000! Wonderful news about the OCC participation.
Also wouldn't surprise me if stress fractures are related to MCAS. I've had low blood sugar issues for years and see that MCAS plays a role in that also.
10 leaks L248! Hope that AC isn't on it's last legs.
Well, I'm pooped and hoping I can get a decent nights sleep.

Hi. I found you. I didn't real8ze a weekend went by. I wake up to a list and go to bed with a list and in between I do my best to cross off on the list.
Too many one steps forward two back
Today air is nice and wind off water makes perfect beach day ...its been a longtime...but I thought I should take advantage of cool ish air and mow front yard first. It was xtra high cuz of rain and I had a harder time than normal. After 3 breaks I'm lying down with Etta. Last 2 days. I slept 4 hrs during day...not sure what it is. When I'm wake up I hope I finish front lawn and get down to beach for a bit
Etta gets hair cut tomorrow and mold remediator gives me estimate wed
I'm glad to see everyone is ok. I hope hiker feels better
Up here prime rib is like $20.00 a pound. How can you afford that AK?...not to be nosy. But its killing me to buy organic at $7.00 a pound. I never spent that when i was cooking for 3 teenage boys and hubs.
I'm falling asleep. Bye

Let my fever go for 12 hours yesterday. Once it reached 102 (I am normally 97.8) I finally took Alleve to bring it down.
Touch of a fever today and very tired.
Had another window estimate (with company that will install new front doors). Going to be pricey, but cheaper than Window World. Really liked the owner who does the estimates and the work.
Went to chiropractor.
Otherwise, I took it very easy today.
Got some much needed rain, too!
Lp--Wish you could find a reliable person to do your lawn at at reasonable price. Then you would have more beach time.
Ak--what brand of chlorella do you use? Sounds like it gets blended up?

We have a special (cheaper ductless air conditioner). It was new, and it basically had problems every year. I wouldn't recommend it. Also it makes a noise like mice running in the walls (or else there's more mice than I thought). It probably wasn't installed right to begin with.
I'm not feeling good today. Maybe it's the full moon.
I was wondering why I seem to be so allergic to my cat lately, but I always see her going around with dust bunnies stuck to her whiskers, and I think that's why. Dusty places are her favorite. She likes to poke around underneath everything.

Lyme248--Sorry you don't feel well. Full moon is next Sunday.
I sure do miss my cat, but I don't miss the fur all over my clothes and furniture.
Window guy (Mike) called with estimate and he is so much cheaper than Window World that I can afford to do all the windows in my house. Yippee!

LP .. soon it will be fall and you won't have to mow!!
Lyme248 .. I hope you feel better soon. I love cats too and can't stand the fur. We only had a part time indoor cat one time. She actually belonged to the neighbors.
AK .. Yeah, the AC will be about $5,000. Not sure when we will cross that bridge.
Hiker .. The news on the windows is GREAT! I hope tomorrow you will be fever-free!
We made our trip to the dentist today. Had to go back after lunch and get a small filling in an upper tooth .. WAY in the back.
So .. we are tired.

Wow...what a day. It took forever yo finish front lawn. No beach. Too tired to cook...I should have known better but went out and bought a burger.
Had mcas attack from it. Pretty scary. Still recovering. Lots of meds in. But I'm drinking war etc and breathing but I guess I'm ok. Feels like a golf ball is stuck in my throat.
Had to go around the block the long way...officer involved shooting 1/4 mile away. The guy is dead(drugs) ...but streets are closed for investigation

LP.. MCAS attack from the ground meat, maybe? How scary. I hope your symptoms calm down soon!!!!
RE the dentist.. we go every 6 months. Hubby has to go every 3 months because his gums are not in good shape since he was not taking care of his teeth like he should. Now he uses the Water Pik every evening.

I've gotten symptoms from eating hamburger meat. I think it's because it's not just meat. They add some kind of preservative (sulfites I think) to make the meat stay red instead of oxidizing and turning brown. Meat form a local farm doesn't have preservatives, and I'm not sure if other cuts of meat do.
But if you went to a restaurant there could have been a million other things in it.
I'm feeling better today, so I hope I can get some exercise, and see how tall the lettuce is bolting and whether the relatives of the mole that got in the garage have started to dig up the garden.

I'm glad you are feeling better today, 248!
Ground meat is also high in histamine.

Ak--Are you feeling better today?
I am feeling toxic again. Rubbery legs.
So, no real exercise.
Went and used coupons for organic meat at grocery store and had a free coupon for potato chips. Decided to save it for later. Proud of myself.
Gassed up the car and then went and paid the contractor to order the windows and doors. Ouch.
Doing my usual reading.

And if you see me double posting the same thing, my computer and Lymenet are not functioning well together. Argh.
Had to edit double posts on several threads the past few days.
This is not Lyme brain. This is a computer conspiracy.

Had a late night last night. I forgot to can the salsa until bedtime.
Checked my email while I waited. Had a notice from my bank's fraud detection center. Somebody had hacked my card. I called the number right away and shut the card down.
Today I went to the bank to reorder another card. By late afternoon, one of the 3 charges was already back in my account.
I am so glad as I had just paid the utility bills by check. There is enough to cover all the checks I have sent out.
Its raining again this afternoon and hubby is complaining he's aching. He asked if its going to storm?
Have a couple peaches to peel & freeze, but I'm almost too tired to do it tonight. Had a hard time falling asleep last night. Morning came much too soon.

Tutu I did read about needing to do that but my phone turns itself off about 47% so around 50 I charge it to 90s. It never will get to 100
Thx for thinking of me tho
I am so mad. I got up early. Hustled to make house presentable for the mold estimate and 10 min b4 she was supposed to be here she canceled.
Sick so I guess I should be glad she canceled and didn't make me sick
I'm so exhausted. The fatigue from the medicines is really knocking me out. I remember trying to be happy about herxing. That's what they call it. Many of us are post Lyme and there is a reason for that. There is a relationship between these infections and Lyme. They go to get her. Its based on new studies about borrelia and nematodes. If anyone wants to read about it I can tell you what group to join. If I come across study ill post it in medical. Maybe it has already been posted
I was at beach 11 hrs yesterday. Etta got her hair cut and I bought water shoes and 2 scarves. I never wore scarves but i never got my fake books although if I could figure easy way to wear scarf so it covers where I'm flat it might be easier. Its very hard to get dressed now. Left shoulder is so bad. I'm wearing skirts and easy pullivertops or button front ones daily
I'm gonna go read what you guys have been up too. Did you see my crazy fb page. Shooting too close to home

You can probably make it gluten free, hiker. I was thinking of you and LP, who like to make zucchini bread. My mom used to make a great one. Yum.
I will contact Tom about the double posting. I have a feeling he will say he can't do anything about it. I don't know.
AK .. Get well soon!!!!
My sister in law in Houston is also sick with a stomach virus. UGH .. I so dread getting it. Hubby and I were SO sick with it in December when his dad died.
Went to Bible study today.

AK--praying you are feeling better today.
Walked 22 minutes and did about 10 minutes of yard work.
Went to get some produce at grocery store. Had a nice conversation with an elderly man who says he sees me walking in the neighborhood with my trekking poles.
Turns out he lives in the condos I would like to live in. He said it would be a long wait.
Also stopped by the library to grab a book that was on hold for me. There is a sweet corn festival this weekend in that area and I figured there would be no parking then.
I can't run out of books to read!!!
Pretty toxic again today but taking one day at a time.
See energy healer tomorrow. Praying that storms do not come as predicted as I hate driving in rain. She is about 70 minutes away.

AK .. I'm glad you are feeling a little better and that your mom made it home safely!
Hiker .. I hope tomorrow won't be worse than today!
I didn't exercise all week. Taking it easy with my foot. Hope to get back in action next week.
I went to a fiddle contest last night that was really good. I may go again tomorrow. We'll see. The finals are tomorrow. We had special guests at the show last night.
Also went to lunch in the city with the support group this afternoon.
I hope LP is doing OK. I got a text from her last night. She's not having fun, that's for sure.
