When I was young and stupid, I went to a party and had no knowledge of eggnog. I drank more eggnog, then a human should. Later in the evening, it came up with a vengeance, and I can never go near that stuff again with that memory.
Bubba, I just seed my lemon Betty the other day and I got lady friends in the tent. I don’t normally grow spindley plants but I’m gonna give us one to try.
As a little kodger I snuck into the fridge and got out a half-gallon of egg-nogg and a quart of blueberry yogurt.

Snuck to the basement and consumed them in their entirety.

Shortly thereafter I was puking blueberry yogurt and egg nogg like nobody's business.

It was a year or so before I drank anymore egg nogg, and many years, over a decade, before blueberry yogurt was edible.

These days I miss egg nogg, so mix my own lower-carb version per the recipe I posted, though it's not real egg nogg. And while blueberry yogurt isn't my preferred yogurt flavor (yogurt has noteworthy carbs, by the way), I like blueberries a LOT. Just not particularly fond of them in yogurt for about 58 years now.

Get a couple of small squeezy rubber balls and keep squeezing them....lots of muscles in the hands. They can gain strength quickly. Pretty soon you'll be just like GI Joe with the kung fu grip!
That's good advice to start gaining hand strength again - my current grip strength is pretty strong - 2 years of just hanging by the arms - from a bar with my full weight has really helped - when I started it was difficult to do just 10 seconds hanging - can now do 60 seconds - and have thick calluses on my hands - because of it -

A cloudy day here, starting at 48F and predicted to reach 58F.

Yesterday was a day of stretching, heating pad, stationary bike, and walking the fat pup to calm my hips down, which worked, and I slept last night with no analgesics. OOraw! Wish that would work for my back..........

My Scandinavian ancestry was from the early 1700 and I've only experienced Dupuytren's contracture on the one finger. There was a single ~ 1" incision perpendicular to the finger, that only took four stitches and healed rapidly without incident. It still itches like crazy sometimes, but no other problems.

Dinner out last night at Tien Hong for Salt and Pepper Squid and accouterments. We've decided that in addition to our weekly breakfast out, we will add a weekly dinner out. Both for our own joy and amazement, as well as to help the local restaurants whose businesses have never recovered from the Covid shutdowns. A number of our favorite ones in fact are no longer in business................

My sister is taking Mom to the ER as I am too sick. I think she is having a stoke her right side is not working at all
Sorry sister woman, good luck with your mom and respiratory system! Sending prayers and healing thoughts.

Has it affected her speech?
They are really UGLEEE when they get that big and old. They don't like to be petted.
Or to have their gums finger massaged.

With me... Mebbe.... Hahaha

Sloops-of-War... was the answer to the last question I was asked when I was qualifying as an Enlisted Surface Warfare Specialist... Will never forget it... Much like I'll never forget that the firemain system on my first ship was comprised of 6 inch horizontal loops with 8 inch vertical risers... Or that the RHiB boat is lowered from the main deck via a single-arm, gravity davit....

So much useless info in this noggin sometimes. Was blessed with an interesting memory... But I reckon that's partially due to TBI.

Anyway... Man... I better drink some coffee and shaddap. Enough Hash for now.

No I guess it was her being very tired and sick. It the first time she has got covid. She only goes to church and no where else. Our church is small unless a kid brought it home from school. My Grand kids her Great grandkids visit daily as they live in the guest house on the same property.
