Today’s oldie appeared on New Year’s Day, 2012, however its point makes it appropriate today and any other day. It also includes, as a bonus, one of those infinity puzzlers that intrigued us so as kids: is there a picture of Arlo and Janis dancing on the cartoon on the refrigerator and a picture of Arlo and Janis dancing on the cartoon on the refrigerator on the refrigerator, etc., etc. etc., etc….

So if Ted wins the election instead of someone else, does that mean we will have 4 years of Cruz control?
I think the fish oil I was taking was some of that outer space stuff. It was prescription and I think 5000 or 50,000 ID every day. Kind of like my nonexistent Vitamin D which I was taking 50,000 units daily too.
Trapper Jean, if they haven’t done so, have your Vitamin D level checked. Even with sunlight and foods I have almost none and the over the counter stuff doesn’t raise it, so prescriptions.
10. In filling out an application, where it says, “In case of emergency, notify…” I
answered “a doctor.”

Good morning Villagers…..
And to all the cancer survivors…there is indeed power in prayer…….Amen
Jean and Jackie, that disease sounds so overwhelming, you both have my prayers, and another Amen here.
Old Bear, never had thought of answering that question that way…. too funny.
Cruz Control…… 🙂
Going in early, packer down an hour yesterday, and I have belt rolls and blocks and lotsa eggs to bring in today.
I saw that article on Accuweather also….started to read it and realized the time was getting away from me.
Ya’ll have a blessed day

Mark: Yes. Peace?
Add my 🙂 to “Cruz control”, plus one to “start with a 5K”.
Ghost Sweetie, I do indeed! Anyway, I’m not old, I’m vintage! 😉
Debbe, thanks for the prayers. I’m just learning my way around this thing and can use all the help I can get.
Part of the problem is that I’ve had bronchitis since I was a little girl, so that confused doctors for a while. What hurts is that I cough until I’m out of breath, and still have to cough. Not fun.
And yes, Jackie, I have talked to my dentist. I do drink too much coffee and tea, probably, but I also always have a glass of water nearby, and if I leave the house there’s at least one bottle of water in my bag. I will check on the Vitamin D thing, though, and see what the rheumatology doc says about that. Thanks for that tip!
Nancy, a belated wish for a very happy birthday!!
A friend who lives in a subdivision says a neighbor, who already has something of a petting zoo in his back yard, has just acquired several peafowl. My friend says they screech a lot. 🙁
Jerry,
I hope you’re right about 70. I’m less than 2 years from 80 and still no prescriptions! Is 80 the new 60? I hope so. Happy birthday to all who have had one or will have one soon.
God bless us every one.
Trapper, dentists are now being taught about Sjhogrens (see I can’t spell it) and because of the rapid teeth decay I have been on a six month appointment schedule for 20 years, now moved to four months with the beautiful and costly caps and bridges.
My mama used to gripe endlessly about the amount of water and tea I drank. It is why I am always fighting Diet Coke addiction. She carried huge hard candy containers for me to sucked on, didn’t help teeth!
Your ophthalmologist will be seeing you often too!
This is such a bizarre and unknown to public disease I just explain the cough as not sick but allergies. I am back on plaquenil but refuse to go back on steroids. There should be some new treatments for you.
Being so tired and in pain is hard to deal with but you just keep going. It beats the alternatives!
Even my Weather Channel feed is talking about Mississippi, Alabama and Florida coastal disaster. You all check in if you can, I worry about you all. Jerry, save the kitties on the top floor.
Mark I know you are inland but I think I should look at radar.
Biloxi Gulfport looked awful.
Jackie, here’s weather report for T-town:https://www.wunderground.com/weather-forecast/US/AL/Tuscaloosa.html
There is a homeless woman and her cat out in grass off side of Walmart parking lot. She did not look ok so I circled around and stopped to talk to her, gave her some money and asked if cat was ill, I would have taken them to my vet. She was worried about a kitten she had been feeding behind a closed restaurant I used to eat in. I am sure she was living around it. So, I promised to take a live trap and catch the kitten, add it to my collection.
Two or three of those adolescent cats we neutered and spayed are coming up to eat the Endless Kitty Buffet now, along with the spayed mother and her spouse. So, some are alive. We live trapped them all.
Troubling: Don’t see any tan plumage on either of the two adults at: Previous male had tan plumage on nape and some contour feathers. Peace,

Never surround a site you want to transmit with those upper case L and R arrows above the , and the . That subtracts the site from your message, at least here it does. Peace,

Nancy, I couldn’t believe I’d missed your birthday, until it was mentioned here it was originally mentioned on Buch der Gesichter and not here. That ‘splains it. So Happy Very Belated Birthday to you.
Love, Ghost
p.s. My cousin doesn’t come out of the Canyon until Saturday. I wonder what’s it like to spend two weeks with no cell phone or InterWebNet access. I think I’d be willing to find out if I were given the opportunity.
Ghost, I offered you that chance and you declined. I would let you bring your guns but I am not sure about Canadian law?
I promise, it was that remote unless you put in to shore at the two towns that had WiFi and cell phones. Just lock them in a drawer and be in remote serenity. Unfortunately since neither you nor I are skilled power boaters we might never do it alone.
My married daughter graduated from UVU this evening, plus got her teaching certificate. A very good day, though the wind outside the building was “bracing”.
Congratulations to your daughter and her parents as well.
12. You do not need a parachute to skydive. You only need a parachute to skydive twice.
Good morning Villagers….
Nancy, like GR, I missed sending you birthday greetings….so happy belated birthday. So is it your 29th?
And Jerry’s is coming up too….you already told us how old you were going to be, so I know it’s not your 29th 🙂
Congratulations on raising a find daughter TR, may she make a difference in some students’ lives.
Jean….and another Amen for you. Keep us informed, OK? Still have those flannel sundresses?
Jackie, you are so giving….thanks for helping those who need it.
The day before, we had a severe storm come through. Heard the rumbling of thunder. Next thing I knew, there was a bright flash of light and not even a fraction of a second came the thunder…loud, very loud. Ian was out in the middle of the hen house and it even lit it up. Then the hens went spastic….I don’t know what was louder, the thunder or the screeching of some 75,000 hens. It was deafening.
And it’s Friday, got another seven day paycheck coming and going.
…Old Bear, you made me have to REALLY think on that one…too early for that 🙂
Ya’ll have a blessed day.
