  1. So sorry to hear this. I hope he will go and get looked at, before it gets worse! Prayers for him and you as well.
  2. Good morning. Thanks for the Daily/Fleet report and all the contributors. I like log cabins. I don't eat catfish. A salute to bartenders and mixologists! Cute quote. I like the meal, and substitute ground turkey for ground beef a lot. I like the drink and wine. I'm making low carb chili today using ground turkey. I haven't been to Guaymas. Thanks for the pictures. It's going to be hot here today with air quality issues, so I'm inside for the day, after watering plants first thing this morning. I went to bed early last night to try to elevate my leg. My efforts all day weren't great and the leg had swelling and was painful by evening. I'd hoped to be able to put on the compression stocking today, but it's not ready for that. So I used an ace bandage for gentle compression, and have rigged up a new setup for elevating it while downstairs. Next week's injection may have to be delayed because of the infection - I need to clarify with the Rheumatologist. @StLouisCruisers Great news that DH is finally negative! Great view from your balcony. Enjoy the rest of the cruise together and try not to overdo it. @Crazy For Cats Bon Voyage! @grapau27 Love your garden room. The lunch looks yummy. Great that your knee has almost no pain now. @rafinmd Thanks for the inclusion on the Care List. @smitty34877 So exciting that Camilla is taking a few steps. Watch out, she'll be everywhere soon! @mamaofami Best wishes for DH avoiding pneumonia. Enjoy your celebrations tomorrow. @HAL Sailer So sorry to hear of Curt's mental difficulties on top of his physical injuries. Prayers for his recovery. Sad to hear that DH's sister will have to give up her lakeside house, but it seems necessary given the conditions. @TiogaCruiser Safe travels! Prayers for the Care List and Cheers for the Celebration List. Take care and stay safe everyone.
  3. @Vict0riann Thanks for the pictures. Yes, diagnosed as cellulitis, a bacterial skin infection. I have no idea why I got it. No break in the skin or bug bite. It's still somewhat painful, although less red I think. I'll probably be in bed after dinner, with pillows to prop up the leg. Excellent news on your eyes, Ray! It's an infection that's causing the symptoms. I'm not sure if the new immunosuppressant would make me susceptible that quickly. Also I have a bit of swelling in my legs, but wear my compression stockings religiously, from getting up to going to bed, even in this hot weather. @Quartzsite Cruiser Yummy looking pie!
  4. Good afternoon. Thanks for the Daily/Fleet Report. Fairies are cute. I've never eaten from a food truck. No dog or work here. Great quote. I'll pass on the meal. The drink looks good but too much sugar. I like the wine. I haven't been to today's destination. Looking forward to any photos. Well, not a good night for me. As I was going to bed around 11:30 and taking off my socks, I noticed my right lower leg was hot, red and somewhat painful! I thought probably cellulitis. Could I wait until morning? Since I am on the new immunosuppressant, I decided I should be seen. Called BFF and he picked me up around 12:30AM (bless him). I decided to go to the city hospital of my network versus the suburban one; always interesting characters there. They did bloodwork and gave me the first dose of an antibiotic. I got home just before 4:30. I managed to sleep until 9, and just picked up my prescription. I'm not a nap person, but may try later. I wish I had a recliner so I could elevate my leg; I had been thinking of getting one. And I must not stress eat, as I've been doing well with watching my intake! Always something! Hot and humid here the next few days. @kazu Safe travels. Sorry about the flight issues. I'm sure your sister and friends are happy to be there for you. Bittersweet Anniversary memories I'm sure; lovely picture of Jose. ((HUGS)) @StLouisCruisers I'm sorry to hear DH is still positive. @Sharon in AZ Happy Birthday! Ugh on the situation at Heathrow. @grapau27 Good to hear that the steroid shot is starting to help. @smitty34877 Thanks for the picture of cute Miss Camilla! Prayers for Tana. @GTVCRUISER Aww, cute picture. @1ANGELCAT Yay on the pain med working well. Boo on the long wait for the Botox request. @mamaofami I'm glad your PCR was negative. Sad that Sam can't celebrate your birthday with you. @superoma Gorgeous lavender! @durangoscots Oh my on Covid spreading at the shelter. @jimgev Safe travels and Bon Voyage! @marshhawk Take care of your diabetes; I've seen too many folks with complications that made their lives difficult. We want you around! Prayers for the Care List and Cheers for the Celebration List. Stay safe everyone.
  5. Whew, I'm pooped. At the eye doctor the uveitis was quiet, with no white cells seen in the eye. But she did see a corneal cyst. I've had this unexplained fluid collection in the right eye that no one could figure out, but I think this is separate. So I have to put in hypertonic saline gel, which will draw out the fluid. Of course it's not in stock in any drugstore around, so I have to order it from Amazon! I ran errands to 4 places after the appointment. @VMax1700 Happy Birthday! Wonderful to celebrate on a BHB. My first cruise was a birthday cruise, and another time I celebrated in China while on a river cruise. @Quartzsite Cruiser Great that DH is walking pretty well. @StLouisCruisers I hope DS does test negative and sorry his his other son tested positive. @bennybear Good advice. I need to find a dermatologist, but it's hard to get an appointment. @Cruising-along Great that DGS tested negative. @Crazy For Cats Woohoo! @Oceansaway17 Welcome home. @marshhawk I hope you get the job you want.
  6. Good morning. Thanks for the Daily/Fleet Report. It's sad when anyone becomes a widow and I pray for comfort for them. I'm trying to let it go by decluttering. I like pink and have several pink shirts. Disagree with the quote. I like the meal, but too carby for now. Pass on the drink. I like the wine. I haven't been to Jakarta. It will be nice here today. There were storms yesterday, but my area escaped without power outages or trees down. Today will be low 80's, less humid, and sunny. I'm heading out to the Ophthalmologist shortly for my uveitis check, and blood work. Then run a few errands. @rafinmd HAPPY BIRTHDAY! @Quartzsite Cruiser Good to hear the steroids helped DH and he comes home today. @mamaofami Sorry to hear Sam and the aide have tested positive. I hope the rest of the family stays ok and your test is negative. @Cruzin Terri I hope the lower dose of Prednisone works out. @bennybear Oh no on DH's melanoma diagnosis. Prayers for a successful surgery. @StLouisCruisers Prayers for a negative test for DH tomorrow. Good news about Buddy, and I hope they can get some increased nutrition for him. Happy Birthday to your DD tomorrow. @smitty34877 I hope Tana is doing a bit better today. @grapau27 Praying the steroid shot helps. That's pretty warm in your area. Prayers for the Care List and Cheers for the Celebration List. Stay safe everyone and wear your mask when needed.
  7. @kazu So sorry to hear about your phone. Did you have Apple Care on it? @Quartzsite Cruiser Oh my, on DH's mobility issues. Hopefully PT/rehab can make a big difference. @dfish It sounds like your efforts to exercise were thwarted at every turn. Especially bad about the pool takeover, with no notice to even the manager.
  8. Good afternoon. Thanks for the Daily/Fleet Report. HVAC techs are important, to keep us warm and cool. I like onion rings. Rainforests are important and need to be protected. Good quote. I'll pass on the meal, drink and wine. I've been to San Francisco on a land trip (my pics are pre-digital). Another hot day here, 91F right now. We're supposed to get strong storms this evening. @StLouisCruisers I'm glad to read you finally tested negative and are out of Covid jail! Sorry you're feeling week and tired. Take it easy! I hope DH gets out soon, and sad to hear your DS is now positive. @grapau27 Good luck with the steroid injection; it's helped my knees in the past. @dfish Same here, my downstairs AC didn't come on yesterday, but upstairs it did. @smitty34877 Good to hear the soon to be graduate had a fun evening. I'm sorry Tana is coughing; maybe the doctor can give her some cough syrup with codeine? That usually works well. @HAL Sailer Praying to see steady improvement in Curt's condition. @ottahand7 Happy Birthday to DF! @Heartgrove That's positive news about your brother. I hope you get to bring Tika to your home! @travelingbums Welcome home! Airports sounds awful these days. Prayers for the Care List and Cheers for the Celebration List. Try to stay safe everyone.
  9. Shaking my head. The news is reporting about a wrong way car crash last night around midnight. The road it happened on can be tricky even during the day and I don't go on it too often. The person going the wrong way was driving a minivan with 8 children in it, ages 1-11. 4 of the kids were unrestrained and the driver had no license! Those 9 plus 2 adults in the other car were taken to the hospital, but fortunately no fatalities. @smitty34877 Good to hear they'll be streaming the graduation ceremony. @ger_77 I'm glad you got home before roads flooded and that you're on higher ground. Good luck with the new filling.
  10. Good afternoon. Thanks for the Fleet Report and the Daily. Welcome Summer! No skateboarding for me, and I'm not flexible enough for Yoga. I like the quote. I'll pass on the carby pasta meal, and wine. I'll take the drink. I've been to Paris on a land trip, but not the port of Rouen. It's sunny and heating up here, with a high of 90 later. I've watered plants outside earlier, and will stay inside. We have an air quality alert too. @StLouisCruisers So sorry to hear you're both still positive 🥲. And it's horrible that you don't have a balcony to get fresh air! No wonder you're so stressed. Prayers for Buddy continue. @dfish Thanks for the adorable photos of the baby and of Oliver. @smitty34877 Ouch on DH's painful gout! I hope he feels better soon with the meds. I am so sorry to hear that Tana has pneumonia again; such a difficult situation. And I'm sure she's unhappy that she can't attend her son's 8th grade graduation. Prayers for your DH, Tana, and the family as well. @kazu Lovely photo of the old clock. The rhubarb strawberry jam looks delicious. @Cruzin Terri It's good to hear you felt well enough to tackle some tasks. @kochleffel Ugh on all the flight issues. It's making travel so tough. @Quartzsite Cruiser Thanks for posting Sandi's pictures. Prayers for the Care List, Ukraine and all victims of gun violence (it seems there are overnight shootings here daily). A toast to the Celebration List. Stay safe everyone.
  11. Good afternoon. Thanks for the Daily. I haven't had an ice cream soda since college. I'll salute bald eagles. We have several nests around, with cameras on 2 of them. The one that I follow just had all 3 eaglets fledge, and this couple has had 18 hatch since 2013. No cat here, and no job since retiring. I like the quote. I like the meal. I'll pass on the drink and wine (sounds good, but too pricey for me). I haven't been to Chania. Thanks for the pictures @Vict0riann @Quartzsite Cruiser @bennybear @sailingdutchy. It's our last cooler day today, although the humidity is up a bit and there's been a few sprinkles of rain. I made an early morning Aldi run. I was thinking of doing some edging of the lawn, but my hands are bothering me a bit; I may still try later. @StLouisCruisers Sorry to hear you're still testing positive. Good luck to you and DH with tomorrow's testing. @dobiemom Have fun! I haven't been to a county fair in ages. @cat shepard Good to hear that you feel well today. @aliaschief I'm glad DGD is doing fine despite the swimmer's earache. @dfish Congrats to your DS on the new DGD and a new baby in the family! @HAL Sailer Continued prayers for Curt. What a lovely sentiment about the Daily dinner table! @smitty34877 I hope DH feels better soon. Prayers for him, and for Tana. Prayers for the Care List and a Toast to the Celebration List. Stay safe everyone. The Hays Bald Eagles
  12. Good afternoon. Thanks for the Daily and Fleet Report. Happy Father's Day to all the Dads and Father Figures. I was adopted by a single woman, so didn't celebrate the day. A salute to Juneteenth. Sadly, no one here to kiss! Funny quote. I'll pass on the meal and drink. I'll take the wine. I haven't been to Sri Lanka. Thanks for the pictures. It was in the high 40's here this AM! Brrrr. But it's sunny and warming up. I'll do some yardwork later I think. 90's again later in the week. Nice to see all the Dad photos. @MISTER 67 Welcome home! I hope your DS and BIL have mild cases. @cat shepard I'm glad to hear your test remained negative. @grapau27 Thank you for posting the sermon. Great photo with you, Sarah and Pauline's Dad. @StLouisCruisers I hope the time passes quickly and tests to come are negative! Oh my on Buddy's tumors in the spine being so extensive; sadly it sounds like an aggressive diagnosis. Prayers for him and the family. @TiogaCruiser That's an interesting device to monitor water usage. @Vict0riann Good to hear you're feeling better! @HAL Sailer Sorry to hear DH's nephew needed additional surgery. Continued prayers for his recovery. @Horizon chaser 1957 What a special Father's Day for your DH and kudos to your DD! Prayers for the Care List and Ukraine and its people and allies. Cheers for the Celebration List. Stay safe everyone.
  13. Good afternoon. Thanks for the Daily. I'm not a person that fishes, although I went deep sea fishing once while in college in Boston (I caught a lobster trap!). I won't panic today, and a picnic would be nice but won't happen today. Not sure I agree with the quote. I used to love good Italian subs; now I'd eat the inside without the bread. Pass on the drink, but I'll take the wine (when my dry June is over). I haven't been to today's destination. Thanks for any pictures. The weather is lovely today. Upper 60's, sunny, a bit windy, and less humid. I may putter in the yard later, once I'm finished doing laundry. BFF and I did go out to eat yesterday and sat outside. It was quite pleasant in the covered patio. But the place was preparing for the Father's Day weekend by having large grills outside and the smoke was blowing toward the patio. They finally moved the grills. But I was coughing last evening when I got home; I think just from the smoke. I am fine today. @St. Louis Sal Good to hear from you. Sorry to hear of the Covid illnesses in the family. @cat shepard Feel better! @Sharon in AZ Thanks for the pictures. I'm sure you're sad to leave. Safe travels. @HAL Sailer Great news that DH's nephew was moved out of ICU and that help is arriving for your SIL. @kazu Flying seems so difficult these days with all the cancellations. @Heartgrove I'm glad you made it home safely through that weather. That was wonderful of the priest to come back for your sister's mass; and the playing of music so meaningful to her. Prayers for your brother. @Cruzin Terri Good to hear you slept well. @Cat in my lap Sorry to hear of the relatives with Covid. @StLouisCruisers I hope you and DH are doing ok. @Vict0riann I hope you feel better soon so that you can prepare for your trip. Prayers for the Care List and Cheers for the Celebration List. Stay safe everyone!
  14. I had a bit of redness and itching this morning, but nothing like the first shot. I had taken Benadryl before the shot on Wednesday, a Claritin yesterday and one today. Once the Claritin kicked in, the itching and redness subsided. Hopefully less reaction each time. Prayers for your DH's nephew for a good recovery. Thank goodness there were people around to help. @StLouisCruisers So sorry this is happening to you and DH. Sadie is so cute! BFF wants to go out to eat; we haven't seen each other in a while, although we text every day. He doesn't do heat well, so the likelihood of sitting outside is low; but there shouldn't be many people there at 4PM (let's hope).
  15. @durangoscots Susan, Happy Birthday!
  16. Good morning. Thanks for the Daily. I'll eat some veggies today. No road trip for now and I don't wear flip flops (no support). Great quote. I like fish and chips (about the only way I'll eat fish). Pass on the drink, but the wine sounds good. I haven't been to Manzanillo. Thanks for the pictures. It's supposed to be slightly less hot today, but less humid. Sad events here due to the heat; a 3-month old died after being left in the parents' car for hours and several dogs left outside in the heat had to be put down. I just don't understand it! @grapau27 Yummy looking fish and chips. And Pauline looks lovely as usual. @kazu I'm glad your sister was safe from the storms. Great flower pictures. @marshhawk Sorry about the phone issues; I hope you can get it stopped. @Sharon in AZ Wow, that altar is stunning! Prayers for the Care List and Ukraine and the missing soldiers. Cheers for the Celebration List. Stay safe everyone.
  17. None here either. Mainly the bad stuff passed to the south of me. But some rain would have been nice.
  18. Rhine Falls, Schaffhausen, Switzerland
  19. Yes, the rhodo has already bloomed. The past few years I've wanted to move it, before it got too big, but was lazy and didn't do it. I can wait until fall to move it. It's in-between 2 large old hydrangeas which are giving it no room, even though I cut them back quite a bit every year. Thanks for the advice.
  20. Good morning. Thanks for the Daily and to all contributors. All good days. Fresh/Frozen veggies are good for us, I love waterfalls and photographing them, and a salute to essential NAs. Interesting quote. I like the meal (with a lower carb crust) and drink. Pass on the wine. I haven't been to Lembar. Thanks in advance for any pictures. Another heat warning day, with possible severe storms tonight. I'll stay inside most of the day. Fortunately, nothing at the injection site so far. I took a Claritin this AM per my doctor's recommendation. @Heartgrove Thinking of you Jack and your family on this difficult day. @StLouisCruisers Hoping you get better sleep. Can they move you due to the noise? Sorry to hear that the issues getting food continue. Prayers for Buddy that the spinal surgery helps prevent paralysis. So sad. And prayers for you and DH. @Cruzin Terri Good that the inflammation is subsiding. I think I can tell a difference with my RA meds, after only 2 weeks. @kazu A special new avatar. Beautiful azalea. I hope you get things straightened out with the lawn people. I have a rhodo in my back yard that I want to move to the front. I hope I don't kill it when I do that! Great cruise plans. @dfish Sorry to hear the pain is back and I hope you get it figured out. @VMax1700 Thanks for taking us along on you live thread. @Sharon in AZ Thanks for sharing your time in Venice. @grapau27 Love the cute garden bunnies. Prayers for the Care List, and Ukraine. Cheers for the Celebration List. Stay safe everyone and wear a mask when needed.
  21. Good morning. Thanks for the Daily. I like photography and do some nature photography. I also like prunes in danish and use them in my German fruit bread. Smiles have power! True quote. I like the meal but won't eat it due to the carbs. Pass on the drink and wine. I haven't been to day's destination. Looking forward to any photos. I was up and out early to go to the dentist, so the new bonding is on and I hope it stays put this time. I was going to stop at Aldi's, but it was too early. We are under a heat advisory, with a heat index of 101 later. Schools are letting out early, as some have no AC, and cooling centers have opened. I just took Benadryl, in preparation for my 2nd injection of Kevzara; I had a local reaction to the first one, with itching and a hive around the site. I'll take a non-sedating antihistamine the next few days. So, I'll see if I can stay awake today! @StLouisCruisers Sorry you had a bad night's sleep. And oh no on DH being positive! Please take care. Fervent prayers for Buddy and Jen. @Heartgrove I hope your brother's procedure went well. Prayer for your family. @dfish Aldi has soybean pasta and edamame pasta which are supposedly keto friendly. I haven't tried them yet. @aliaschief Have fun with the girls! @smitty34877 Good to hear the gas lines are fixed. Nice that helped you transfer Tana back to your side. @mamaofami Beautiful picture. @ger_77 Happy Birthday to you DS! Prayers for the Care List and Cheers for the Celebration List. Stay safe everyone.
  22. @cunnorl Safe travels. @Heartgrove I'm glad you were safe from the storms. Prayers for your bother's surgery tomorrow. @StLouisCruisers So sorry to hear about Buddy having to be at the ER; prayers for him. Oh no on testing positive! 😞 Feel better. And I hope they treat you better, especially in terms of getting meals. Prayers that DH stays negative.
