What's everybody doing today?

[Neb]

I am doing absolutely nothing, again. My wife had a cold/flu that really knocked her for a loop. I guess she felt cmpelled to share it. I have the Queen Mother of all head colds. Yesterday I slept for 12 hours (9 to 9). Woke up for an hour and slept until 5:00 this morning. Today is better, but my nose is still running like a faucet.

I am drowning it with massive doses of water and massive doses of Vitamin C.

Ditto that!

First time I have been sick in more than 4 years. Love Nyquil for times like this.

It is legal to have chickens in city limits here. Less than 8 I believe. We don’t eat or use enough eggs for ourselves but I suppose to make money..? Probably not worth it for me at this time…maybe later. And where’s @Frodo ?

Time to dig the big snowblower out of the barn and see if I can clear the road. I need to have the road open by Friday.
We're getting close to having an emergency up here. We only have enough bacon to make it through Friday morning.

Uncle Melvins funeral today and luncheon and visiting and sooo many old photos afterwards. So sad, but so much fun to see the old stuff and all my cousins. We are wiped out now.

.....We're getting close to having an emergency up. We only have enough bacon to make it through Friday morning.

This is one of the things that drives me nuts a about prepper/survival fiction stories. Everybody gets up and eats copious amounts of bacon every morning. Not going to happen. There isn't that much bacon on a pig, and those big groups of people eating like pigs will have a a big stock pile cleaned out in days.

....Waiting for my ambition to show up... Chuckle..
I also have to say ...my git up has got up and went...

Out yesterday in the 5F cold.. Had a couple errands that had appointments.. Todays high 15F, gloomy and calm.. Took Tylenol last night and slept in big time today, bad hips, knees, ankles complaining to the max.. Predicted 6"+ snow through Saturday.. Doesn't matter, no where else to go or nothing to do..

I just went to the store a couple hours ago. Large eggs were up to 5.99, jumbo eggs were 6.49!

are they now going up by the day???? Welcome to Weimar republic...

 

[sonya123]

so I found something that made me happy:



I have been trying to figure out how to set a one minute repeat time that just bings on my phone, but can't
Should have looked at youtube long time ago for this!!

I need it for yoga timer

OK, got the snowblower out and almost immediately got it stuck. My Jeep got stuck trying to pull it out. We did a lot of digging then pulled it out with the tractor.

It was meant as a joke. If I run out of bacon we have lots of sausage. If that runs we have tons of Spam. We have well over a year of food on hand. And that's not counting all the food on the hoof running around here.

I didnt know bacon was necessary for survival! I haven't bought any in months , how much time do I have left until I starve???

And I thought we were in bad shape! You better get stocked up on bacon before your next storm moves in.

Where are they?

Not today, but yesterday. I finally got to see a neurologist after waiting over 6 months. Nice lady doctor, and I couldn't understand a word she said. Ordered an MRI and told me to come back in May.

After that we went to see some friends who have a small alpaca ranch, and got some of their comfy socks. They have several great Pyrenees dogs that guard the alpacas. They act super vicious, but if you pet them they won't let you stop. LOL I bet the three could take down an average bear.

Then had lunch at a diner on route 66, my wife's BLT was good, my patty melt reinforced why we eat at home. $30 meal that was $18 and included a shake, last time I was there.

I haven't felt well since and about 3am I started having heart arrhythmias, which are still going on, so didn't get anything done today. I have one of those Kardia EKG monitors which helps so I know if I'm going to have an heart attack. I highly recommend them, about $79 on sale. I have the upgraded 6 lead version but I don't think it's necessary.

I have an arrhythmia too but not that bad at least any more. One pill seems to do the job for the most part and keeps the blood pressure reasonably normal. Hope all is well.
