    1. [ML] Woke up with a bang
    2. Shirley Sullivan
    3. Well, we woke up with a bang, I was having cramps in the calf's of my legs, was trying to get them positioned so they wouldn't cramp, I heard this terrible sound, thought someone may have crashed out side our house, we got up, put my slippers and robe on, and ran outside, a big branch split off one of our big trees out front, broke off and was laying from where the tree stood, to half way into the street. It was still dark, we were afraid someone would run into it, so my husband moved our truck into the street, right in front of the branch that was in the street, left his light on. We called the police and they sent someone out to cut in up enough so they could pull it out of the street. My husband said he would cut up the rest of the tree for fire wood, and stack it in back. I DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S A GOOD IDEA !! HE HAS A BAD HEART, but you can't tell him anything !!! We have had a lot of wind off and on over the last two weeks, must have weakened that branch on the tree, that's all I can think for why it just snapped off. It's pretty windy right now, I can see the palm tree on the next street, and it's just going back and forth with the wind. We have also tried the up side down tomatoes, got a few little ones that's all, not worth the work !!! Marilyn, your day sounds good and fruitful, I love Pork roast, I think they have the most flavor, it make the best gravy too. I found a baby bird under one of those big trees out front yesterday, head gone, I think it was a mocking bird, heard them singing many a morning. We get blue birds, and lots of little birds, but I have never seen a Red Cardinal ever, we don't get them out here in Southern California. When we use to go RVing, we use to watch the birds around the campgrounds, having the patients to sit still and watch birds, must come with age. Yesterday, I saw the first Gardenia this year on my bush, many more buds, looks like soon I can sit out there and enjoy the fragrance, how sweet is that !!! Sully, in sunny but windy California

    1. Re: [ML] [AIF] Surgery update
    2. Doug Crim
    3. Good luck with your recovery Robert... as I have said before, I had that surgery and recovered nicely... I did go to PT a few times. The doctor also wanted me to go three times a week but I too grew weary of that. It was a pain in the butt and expensive. After a few trips, I stopped going and began doing the exercises at home. I was diligent, but did throw away the sling after a couple of weeks. Yeah. the doctor raised hell about that but such is life! I found the sling very uncomfortable... Again, good luck..

    1. [ML] Surgery update
    2. ROBERT E PATY
    3. I had my first round of physical therapy yesterday. It was more of an evaluation session but did include some movement of the shoulder. This could prove to be a lengthy recovery. I learned yesterday that my surgeon wants me to have PT three times a week for six weeks TO START WITH. Very limited movement of the shoulder during that time period. I have another session tomorrow and then every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday until the end of May. The cost may bankrupt me but I need to do the necessary thing. I will have to look into AHCCS (that's the State Health Care Cost Containment System) for possible help with the co-pay. I was on it once, several years ago, but they bounced me off when an increase in my monthly Social Security benefit put me above the income limit. Robert E Paty, Scottsdale, AZ aka Mad Hatter

    1. [ML] laugh for the day
    2. I have been in many places, but I've never been in Cahoots. Apparently, you can't go alone. You have to be in Cahoots with someone. I've also never been in Cognito . I hear no one recognizes you there. I have, however, been in Sane . They don't have an airport; you have to be driven there. I've made several trips there, thanks to children, friends, family and work. I would like to go to Conclusions , but you have to jump, and I'm not too much on physical activity anymore. I have also been in Doubt . That is a sad place to go, and I try not to visit there too often. I've been in Flexible , but only when it was very important to stand firm. Sometimes I'm in Capable, and I go there more often as I'm getting older. One of my favorite places to be is in Suspense ! It really gets the adrenalin flowing and pumps up the old heart! At my age I need all the stimuli I can get! I may have been in Continent , and I don't remember what country I was in. It's an age thing. They tell me it is very wet and damp there. ____________________________________________________________ How to Sleep Like a Rock Obey this one natural trick to fall asleep and stay asleep all night. http://thirdpartyoffers.juno.com/TGL3141/516f7d693a4397d69112fst01duc

    2. Oolong is a full bodied tea, sometimes grown in Mainland China..or my fave...Formosa oolong...I steep one tea bag in a pint of water...Remove bag, add honey, sugar, creamer and milk....Drink half hot with my breakfast crackers, the rest sometime during the day...Not really allowed caffeine ....The honey is from W TN where I was raised...and is from wildflowers, soybean and cotton blooms...I buy cases of quart jars once in awhile....Seems like it is about 4 or 5 dollars a quart...but the same honey is $10.00 in local stores over there....Closer to 20 here...GREAT on biscuits !

    3. When my neighbors grew a couple of the upside down tomato plants, they could not water them often enough. Who wants to be out watering a plant 3 - 4 times a day. I may try the 5 gallon bucket version as I have found a spot that the height would be comfortable.

    1. [ML] My Day - So Farround
    2. marilyn E B
    3. I have been up and going since before 8 this morning. Fixed my breakfast, tea and some little snack cakes as if I eat a heavy breakfast I feel slow the rest of the day. Made my bed and fed Suzy's dog. Then collected Suzy's grocery list to go along with mine and was off to Kroger's. Wednesday is Senior Citizen Day and that means 5% off your total order. I like to get there just as the meat department starts resetting their meat cases for the markdowns. Today I hit the jackpot and I wish my freezer was bigger. I have half of a boneless pork roast in the crock pot cooking for pulled pork BBQ sandwiches. (No comments from the Q boys) I had to give the other half to my neighbors as it was too big to fit in the crock pot - 5 qt and no room in the freezer. I had also found ground sweet Italian Sausage at $1.39, normally I pay $2.99 and that pork roast was $5.09, with my card it would have been $12.39 and without the card 18.89. In the freezer section I had found some closeout items that were about 1/3 their original price. All groceries are put away for both of us and the aroma filling Suzy's house is making me hungry. I have also spent time outside at both places and the birds are giving me a new education. Have you ever watched a Robin scurry around on the ground. I did not realize how fast they could travel on those two little legs. This year we have some of the reddest Cardinals I have ever seen. We do not seem to have as many Mocking Birds as usual by the way the Northern Mocking Bird is the Tennessee. Some one doing a study found a Mocking Bird that could do 300+tunes. Other birds around include Blue Jays, a Red Headed Woodpecker, who may have a home in a tree across the road from Suzy's, several sizes of different black colored birds, Sparrows, and Pigeons. Front porch sitting increases your awareness of other species in this world our Lord created. Well more to do and I hope that little patter on the roof stops soon.

    3. I did the upside down tomato thing last year - didn't get very good results. To begin with, they are enormously heavy. If you don't have someone who can hang them up for you - forget it. One thing that did work well was a smaller planter for peppers. I grow some hot peppers in that one and it works well. You could probably grow herbs in that planter too.

    1. [ML] Your home is a tent
    2. Shirley Sullivan
    3. Our son came to dinner last evening, and told us a little of what he did, and what he saw in Lebanon. On the border of Lebanon & Syria, people have traveled in much danger, to come to the camps where refugees from Syria live, one step above homeless. They call them tents, but these are not tents you buy, these are made up of cardboard, plastic sheeting, and if they were lucky, and their homes had not been completely destroyed, they might have rugs, and some clothes and bedding. Many come with the clothes on their backs, and yes there are the children, and more children, everywhere the children. I thought about all the children, most of the refugees are women and children, just a few men. The women don't really know how to prevent from having babies, so they have babies almost every year. By the time they are forty, they are worn out and look as though they could be in their sixties. They are hard working these women, my son said he had been inside some of the tents, most are very clean, considering the conditions they live in, couldn't be easy. There is one small wood burning stove in the middle of the tent, used both for cooking and heating. They must bring in their own water, in buckets, or what ever they have to carry it in. They have pallets on the floor for sleeping on, and lots of blankets, this is the cold season in Lebanon, there is still snow in the mountains. In the day the women pile the pallets up on each other, fold all the blankets and pile them up too, and the tent becomes a living area, at night all the pallets are placed on the floor, and it becomes one big bedroom. Our son showed us photo's of the food packages they deliver to the refugees, they are made up of Rice, Beans, lentils, cooking oil, caned vegetables, can chicken and surprisingly ham, they put in there too shampoo, bar soap, detergent for washing clothes and toilet paper. This food must last a tent two weeks, the tents have as many as 16 to 20 people, or as little as 12, the parents of many of the children are dead, killed in the civil war. The tents can be by tribe, or by family, also some times it's just people from the same town. Now let me tell you about the bathrooms, the corp. of engineers come in with equipment and digs big holes, covers the top with concrete, and leaves a hole on top, and that my ladies is your toilet. You have to squat over the hole to do your business, if you have trouble squatting, your in trouble !!!! There is also no privacy, a sheet of corrugated steel covers you from view on one side, but it doesn't surround the hole in the ground, left open at one end. So I guess you have to be quick, do you business, and get out fast. So don't complain about your bathroom being to small, or you don't like the color of your toilet, because at least you have a seat to sit on, and door that closes. Many of these Syrian refugees had beautiful homes, good jobs at one time, before the Syrian army came in and bombed their houses, destroyed all they owned, and in all the families many of their loved ones were killed. My son said the children are clean, the girls hair combed, and even have bows and pretty little things in their hair. Many of them are Muslims, but are now coming to bible class, at the make shift churches. The Muslims do little for their own people, all of the food packages are done by the Christian churches in Lebanon and organizations from the states, 70 % of Lebanon are Christians and the rest are Muslims and a few other religions. My son was asked to speak to the children, he had a interpreter, so he told them the story of Noah and the Ark from the Bible, their Koran also tells of Noah, but my son said he told them, when the waters started to receded, and Noah found land, that God sent a Rainbow as a promise not to ever destroy the land by flood again. The children had never heard that part of the story, and had said they had seen rainbows before, than the children sang to my son, guess what they say, "Jesus Loves me" but in their own language, he said they were very sweet. He came home with hope for those people, especially those reaching out to find out more about Christianity. The people are friendly, kind and love Americans, they asked questions about America all the time they were there. In the city of Beirut, Lebanon, they have malls just like here at home, they have McDonald's, Burger King, Pizza Hut, Starbucks, also a Disney Store, and nice restaurants. They have a lot of cars in the city of Beirut, the traffic is terrible. I saw one photo of a motorcycle, it looked like it had a magic carpet on top of the seat, all this fringe hanging off of it, looked pretty, but funny too. One of the big attractions, brings hundreds of American to Beirut every year are the Roman ruins. All through the city you will see many ruins that once were homes and other buildings the Romans built hundreds of years ago. My son said that a thousand refugees come over the Syrian board every day, but they are still in danger from the Syrian army, the week before our son got to Lebanon, a Syrian Army helicopter come over the mountains and started shooting up some buildings, what for ??? who know's because they could ??? So no matter where you live, or what kind of home you live in, give thanks to the LORD, you don't live in Syria. Well friends I need to start my day, our daughter is coming down today, I am going to take her out to lunch and maybe do a little shopping. Our granddaughter, her daughter Brooke, is receiving a special award tonight at college, so we are going to go together. Have a good day everyone, Sully, in Beautiful California !!!

    1. Re: [ML] potatoes
    2. Potting type soil is on sale now, so would be a good time to try experimenting...I would get Miracle Grow garden soil...30 lb. You can lay it on the ground...which will kill the grass, by the way...Cut slits along both sides near the bottom so excess water can drain out. Cut 3 x marks in the top, use small, sprouting potatoes or cut a large one so it has 2 or 3 'eyes' and let it dry out a few hours., Push them down into the soil, water, forget about it except to water every few days. If the potato is sprouted it should put up plants right away....When it has bloomed and begins to yellow you can 'scrabble' out your potatoes...You could also plant a tomato or cucumber plant in the middle hole...Co op's have seed potatoes in bulk, about 35c a lb..So I bought some smallish yellow potatoes to eat...Since I've waited a few days I guess I'll plant them instead...Thats cheap for spuds...I may bite the bullet and buy a cheap laundry basket just for the heck of it...Fill it full of spuds...Good luck ! When we dug a hole to plant a tomato down in the garden we dug up a potato almost as large as a baseball. It was still good and firm and we plan to cook it. Some small potatoes were replanted...I guess I told you we found one potato on top of the ground that had laid there exposed all winter....we replanted it....usually it would freeze and rot. Guess the 'suckers' originated in the Andes....
