Title: It's Monday Again
Post by: wsantia1 on April 06, 2020, 06:46:02 AM
Good morning everyone. Great coffee here as it usually is. It is currently 55 degrees and supposed to go up to 65F. A similar forecast as yesterday but we hit 71 degrees yesterday. Let's see if we can beat the projections once again.

Since the weather was so nice yesterday I spent much of the day outside. I ended up paying for it in the evening with my allergies kicking in big time. The end result was 3.5 hours of sleep.

Today I have a virtual Dr's appointment at 10:30 am. I need my tramadol prescription refilled but in Delaware they make you see a doctor before they can do a refill on it.

My appointment was supposed to be for next week but the Drs. office called me to move it up. I take a 30 day supply of tramadol and try my best to stretch it out to 90 days.These days I have not been so successful.

Hi Willie, where would we be without our coffee??  Our daughter posted a long list of things people need in their lives.  You could pick only 3.  I chose coffee, cats and makeup.  I will try to find the list to post here.  Good luck with your meds. hope you get them today.

I'd like to see that list, Barb. 

I am determined to sit on my ass today since I worked it off yesterday.  I have another little project I need to get worked out completely in my head before I start it.  My chicks in the fish room are growing so fast I'm afraid they'll be jumping out of their container by the end of the week.  I need to make a small chicken yard for them that will not allow them to escape.  If there is a way out a chick will find it.

...69 > 80 and sunny today...again...!!!

...finished my cereal...it was good, but not as good as coffee which I miss...

...We're going on an uouting today...I'm taking Lucy with me and we're going to drive over to Gilbert to pick up a fx-4 Fluval canister filter...I'd love to go into this guy's house because I've seen in on a YouTube video, but I'm going to keep with the social distancing...also going to drop some plants off to another fellow while in that neighborhood...still gonna go in his home either...

...the lights aren't on in the until tonight around 6, and I can't see the Kribs with the fry yet, but all the other fish are in the left half of the 6-foot tank, so I guess Mom and Dad are still holding everyone at bay and protecting their fry!... |^|

Beautiful sunny day here.  I thinking seriously about heading south on the bike to Hocking Hills State Park.....  Great scenery and very twisty roads.

It sounds like you are enjoying life, Dennis.  Good.  I'm happy to have you as the fearless leader of our small band of different types of people that get together here.

Sitting on my ass all day has been boring but it also brought me great joy.  I know what I need to do with my chicken run.  I had everything I needed on hand except T posts.  I'm afraid I'll need 8 of them.  I had to buy 5 for the garden fence.  They're not dirt cheap.  When my neighbor came by to use my grooming equipment he mentioned that I should have asked him, that he has extra ones in the barn.  I called just now and asked if he had 8.  He said sure, he'd send his daughter along with them in a bit. He has always helped me when I got desperate but this is the first time he has offered to help me.

Nice man.

Went on a bike ride this afternoon. Was a nice day. Not too many people outside. Trying to loose some weight I gained during the winter months. Last time I saw Jon,he pointed at my belly because it was getting big. So time to loose it.... :D

I hope he didn't point meaning that he thought that you were pregnant or getting ready to spawn.  huh

Thanks Liz.  Not sure how much of a leader I am, but together we'll keep the place going.

I was definitely enjoy life today.  The roads down by the park were so curvy that my cheeks hurt from smiling too much!   |^|

Is that a new bike, Dennis?  I don't remember you having a Honda.  I could be wrong. A 550 Twin?  I'm sure it has good torque.  Is the ride nice and smooth?

I had an appointment for today  ,got a call yesterday and now it turned into a phone consultation for today.

Which is fine,only thing I wanted from him anyway was refills.   
Saved me the trip,a potential couple hour wait and the risk.

Hey Liz.  Nope, not new.  I've had this bike for 46 years now.  We have a lot of history....  back in the day I raced this bike, that's the reason for the fancy paint and lettering.  It started life as a 550cc four cylinder, but I did lots of work to it while racing and it's now 604cc, with various other internal modifications.  It does ride very nice, and it handles well also.

Hey Barb.  They are better today, thank you very much.  LOL  Check out this curvy road.  If your a fan, your cheeks would be hurting too!

Hey Joel.  It is truly a magical place.  I would have moved down to the farm in southern Ohio years ago if I could have found work.  Got big plans for many trips down south this year.

Yes, very curvy! If you ever go to Hawaii take a bike ride (rented bike of course) on Maui on the Road to Hana.  It was so curvy, 400 curves I think, I got quite carsick.  Did not feel like smiling that day!

So far I've been able to get my Tramadol by calling.  Last time I called, the virus was just getting started but I got a 3 month prescription. rather than one for just one month.
