- okra. Cigarette smoke, old, new, and permeating a room, wafting from a balcony, etc etc. That I have so many chronic diseases. That I take so very many meds. Being cold. Anything too loud, but specifically non-classical music and the television.
@Annb it may be late but thinking of you!
@PenguinMum my heart goes out to you for missing your son. I think here there will be many Zoom Christmas gatherings. Apparently huge Zoom Passover seders were made to work well, so that's something. Knowing he'll be alone is wrenching.
@maglil55 your rant is appreciated-- takes me out of our hideous politicized EVERYTHING going on here. When Ruth Bader Ginsberg(Supreme Court Justice known for her fight for women's rights down the decades) died recently, things became nearly unsalvageable. Our current man who would be king ... well, I will shut up!
@Annb I don't know whether to laugh or cry at your report. So sorry you will have to do the full prep! And glad your procedures were successful anyway!
@SlimLizzy ahhh now I understand re cat. I had the misconception that France would be year-round! I am sorry you'll lose him...
@Chook your poor mum! My mom had never cooked before she married either. My father was a saint, praising her every dish every blessed meal until the day he died. I grew up thinking that the only fish in the world was frozen haddock (YUK!) so I hated all fish until someone introduced me to salmon in college. She did make really good potatoes, baked, mashed, scalloped, roasted in the roast pan... her cookies were overdone until the day she stopped living independently. Her pies, OTOH.... Dad loved pie and she made many of them!
Lol @Antje77, I thought "Maartje" must be a diminutive for a "Martin" equivalent. Glad he's doing so well!
@annabell1 hugs for "starved eating" and the not feeling well!
@Rachox I am imagining you shepherding a large phd bar in shops...
@Sarbak I had the same reaction to the sprouts and blue cheese!
@MrsA2 they sound like good choices to me too! Sorry your body didn't like it. You probably only can have that meal on the third day of a waning moon in months that don't have an R in them....
Wed fudz:
Bfast avocado, pecans, 2 scrambled eggs (who used up the last boiled egg?!!!) and flax crisps/dilute soymilk.
Decided to go to work on no lunch and survived!
Supper cherry tomatoes, tin of sardines minus the water and half a sardine, which are being saved for the hideously constipated cat, to try to get some laxative into him. He threw up his entire breakfast, so in addition to being constipated, he doesn't have any arthritis med on board to make his life just a little easier.... poor poor baby. Spinach/hm dressing (had some on the sardines too-- very nice!), pecans, flax crisps etc
Good night all and good morning in a few hours!
