24 April - What I'm Thankful for Today

Valerie J. Routhieaux @just4him (306351) • Green Bay, Wisconsin 24 Apr

Good evening from sunny Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA. It's currently 46 F. It's been a better than good day. I'm thankful I got the sleep I needed and got up at 3:30 this morning. I'm thankful I got the laundry done this morning...

Lenore Plassman @just4him Working my writing is good brain exercise. I look it over, for instance, "Bob steered the car" could be more exciting and mind engaging if "Bob clenched the steering wheel tight, his knuckles white, avoiding a tree."

Good morning from sunny Green Bay, Wisconsin. Currently, it's 36 F and should only go up to 48 F, though Alexa said 50 F. For the most part the winds have died down. They were a bit strong last night. My elephant toppled over on...

My new food toy

Lenore Plassman @sallypup (57897) • Centralia, Washington 24 Apr

Yesterday my immersion blender and its attachments arrived. I've been having fun with it ever since. Dump stuff in and see what happens has always been my style as a cook. Today I made a fake cheese sauce for our evening meal....

This is a picture of a wolf that I've been drawing ready to paint. I think I've told you about it before, but I didn't show you a picture. I tried to draw it free hand but then I realised that I wasn't getting the proportions...

Another dream I had last night.

Sharon Elton @sharonelton (25013) • Lichfield, England 25 Apr

Last night's dream was about shopping AGAIN! First of all I went into a public toilet. I think it was in an outside toilet block, not in a store. I went in the ladies toilet. There was one lady standing by a toilet door...

Today's trip to the big Tesco.

Sharon Elton @sharonelton (25013) • Lichfield, England 24 Apr

We went to the big Tesco again today. After getting rid of the soft recycle and going up on the lift as usual, I asked my Mum if she wanted to get some stamps from the front desk, but she said she'd get them from somewhere else!...

Gayle Harrelson @just4him they don't bother us & we don't talk to them cause they are the very 1 that said they'd help us get the cabin done & hasn't done anything since I've been out of the hosp, so I have no use for them.

For the past several months I've been working with a food app that is less than ideal. Why? It doesn't give the correct calories for the food I eat. Before the food app I used Excel to track everything. With the help of a...
