Good morning! Y'all have a great day!
We're heading off to Oklahoma City ... Sweetie has an appointment with the doc at the pain management clinic. They'll be talking about those shots in his back.

Good morning, all! Miss May likes to show off. She is cute. It's a sunny, warm morning ... My plan is to be outside enjoying it as much as I can today. We have torrential rain heading our way supposedly starting tomorrow & last through next Tuesday or Wednesday. We had such a nice trip to OKC yesterday. The next step for Sweetie is to see a back specialist. I sat outside in the breezy shade and read while he was in the doctor's office - he had to wait awhile to get in.
We shopped a bit - he found a nice fall jacket and bought me earrings. We had dinner at a place that serves Mexican food like you find in Mexico (not Tex-Mex). It was delicious! We had guaraches, which is a thin beef steak on a baked piece of corn dough, smothered in a green sauce. It comes with refried beans, a mixed salad, & half an avocado. Never had it before; plan to see about making it some weekend for a nice dinner.

I went for blood work this morning, triglycerides, HDL and LDL cholesterol, etc. Now I will get to see if this diet I'm on lives up to all of the hype. I'm losing weight but I don't know if everything else is improving. I'll know next Thursday after I see the doctor.

A couple of days ago I got an email from the Boston Red Sox (legit) offering me the chance to enter a drawing for the opportunity to, maybe, buy playoff tickets. I was selected! Today I went to the site at noon to, maybe, get picked early for the chance to buy tickets. I was! I entered the password I was sent and I'm in. Now I finally get to see the ticket prices. A hundred bucks for standing room. Prices rose exponentially from that for seats. I get it, everybody wants to go, but this is just price gouging. Uh, no! I'll watch from home, thank you very much. I'll make my own hotdogs that won't cost 7 bucks each.

Good morning! I went to the lab this morning to get some blood work done before my surgery next Tuesday. On the way home, I stopped and cashed in my gas points from the supermarket and was able to fill up my gas tank for $1 per gallon.

Great deal on the gas price, Mel! That was a good story on your chances for seats to see the Red Sox game, Scott. Prices are terrible. Edward and the boys drove to Norman to see a couple of OU Sooner games over a decade ago. They had fun, but ... even that was getting a bit pricey. Only pro games I've been to were a couple of times when the WVU band was invited to play the half-time shows at a Pittsburgh Steelers game and at a Washington Redskins game. Gorgeous weather still ... I was up early and cooked breakfast this morning, not something we typically do on a weekday. I've been doing paperwork since just before 6, other than to cook. Think I'll take a break & run some errands.

Good morning! Gloomy day, and the wind has come up. It may be raining soon. This is the big OU-Texas football game, typically called the Red River Shootout, but now called the Red River Showdown. PC-ness in practice. All tied up right now, with 9 minutes left in the first quarter. Jeanette, did you see that Mel uploaded your daisy in the avatar files? Hope all is well with you and your family. I need to enlarge my avatar - I like that we can have bigger avatars on this board. One thing I may do, once I find the time, is start posting some of my new favorite recipes on this board so I can find them quicker. Hope you're all having a great day! I'm doing laundry, dishes, and sorting this what-seems-to-be unending old paperwork.

Howdy! Oklahoma Sooners lost to Texas Longhorns by a mere field goal. Poor Ge'dogg slipped into the closet here in this middle bedroom I use for an office at home. These dogs like to nap in there because there's a metal shelf about a foot off the floor that has comforters and quilts stacked on it, which they can put their heads up under and it's darker. On one end of that shelf, tho', there are some shoe boxes of photos. Poor Ge', somehow, a box of photos slid off and hit him. He wasn't hurt, but it sure spooked him. So, I got busy and sorted those photos while Sweetie sorted his shoes and found a much newer sturdy shoe box I could use for those photos. After his nap, Ge' spent most of the rest of the afternoon in the backyard, playing and enjoying the weather. So far, no rain here. I'm glad. We may have rain tomorrow, but it sure was nice today.
