same thing and cooking class, we are making taco.

Good morning, Danish, Donuts, and Bagels in the Break Room. Drac, Birthday Cupcakes in the Break Room.

Good morning, happy day to all.

Thank you, Connie! It's cooled off here, so I'm glad to have better weather to go out and sort 7 buckets of tomatoes into boxes to continue ripening!

Aww; thanks Drac!

Hagatha, I googled the term you use, and I think a house cleaner I once had had something like it. He never used a medical term, but explained that he had a gland that 'floated'. Whenever he got a cold, his body couldn't tell the different between a cold germ and the gland. Each time it happened, he got so sick he ended up in the hospital. I told him that if he ever got sick when he was working for me, to allow the EMTs to bust down the door to get to him. Later in life he developed anemia. Unfortunately, his body attached the covid vaccine causing him to loose his life.

Don't know about you, but, most times, as long as I know what I'm dealing with or why it's happening, I can handle it.

Butteflybabe, it's an autoimmune disease, usually genetic, and yes, while the disease is active it will attack other glands. If it's left untreated it can kill you (we think my father died because of untreated Hashimoto's). It's quite treatable once it's diagnosed, but until fairly recently doctors had the mistaken belief that it was rare and refused to test for it. Apparently I'm pretty tough, since I survived decades without treatment, but I had no idea what was happening and it was fairly freaky at times.

As you say, now that I know, I can deal with the odd issue when it crops up. As inherited incurable diseases go, it's not a bad one to have, once diagnosed.

Good evening everyone ... didn't get the chance to pop in today

So...I brought a pot of Numi Dry Desert Lime tea for your pleasure this evening

Take care and sleep well

Bright, sunny and coolish this morning here in east central Missouri! Beautiful day ahead that will start quite nicely with a cup of your Bold Sumatra Reserve, soot!

Hello Boomers, hope all is well with you! So sorry to read about your kitty, oldbroad. Hugs to you.

Plodding along here as best we can.

Have a great day everyone.

Much love,

Mary

Thank you MsMercury! It is so good to see you posting!

same thing.

We managed to get the boat cleaned and serviced and back in the water today, thanks to our friends next door -- just in time for more rain, rain, rain for another week. Oh well. We'll still get more decent weather over the next few weeks.

Making a pot of lamb and chick pea stew for dinner. It's starting to smell good!

Good morning, Danish, Donuts, and Bagels in the Break Room. Good to see you Mary.

sports and chores.

Good morning, Danish, Donuts, and Bagels in the Break Room. Shopping is on the agenda today. Working the kitchen for our dinner at the Eagles tonight, Trivia to follow.

the weekend is here! Have a wonderful day everyone

Sumatra coffee and Scottish Breakfast tea in the Break Room.

Chores projects gardening music and sleep at the end of the day

Well, another cat has found us.. the problem is is that it is a boy that is not fixed and he is after Little One , our young girl... he won't leave.. he is a sweetie, likes loving, so we are going to get him , he comes to eat.. and take him to the Vet get him fixed and shots... the Vet said he would then find him a home. Our problem here is people here won't take responsibility of their animals.. cats they don't fix and dogs they let roam all over with out identification tags on them.... ridiculous!

Is you Little One not spayed yet? I got all my females spayed at 4 months - I've had way too many come up pregnant by 6 months old! He probably belongs to someone if he's friendly, but if he's not neutered, he is going to keep spreading his genes everywhere he can. We live in the same kind of area here. I've had an old tom cat hanging around here for about 7 years, but you can't get near him. I think he's truly feral. He's pretty healthy because he eats the barn cat food! But I haven't seen him for at least 3 months - won't be sorry if he finally met his end as he's a great deal of trouble sometimes attacking my spayed and neutered cats.

Mary, so good to see you

I've been in the kitchen most of the day, but I did take the time to sit down and read the entire Wall Street Journal today. G'son and hubby will handle the dishes. I smell delicious aromas from the direction of the kitchen (son is cooking), so will be enjoying dinner in a few minutes.

We have had rain for a week and will have for another one. Can't complain about the rain though as I don't enjoy when we have droughts.

We have many irresponsible pet owners in our area. Drives me nuts!

Have a great night ya'll

Yes, Drac she is spayed. She is just a real timid cat and he knows it.

Yup. That's what this feral tom does... he picks on my most timid cats and also on my very old 16 year old cat. He's an a**hole!

Good morning everyone

I brought a pot of Starbucks 'Cold Brew' this morning along with a quart of heavy cream and some sugar ... let's splurge for the day if you can ... and if you can't then just put 3 ice cubes in your cup and pour the cold brew over them and enjoy

Wishing you all a quiet Sunday ... projects and rest on my calendar for the day
