Nov 24, 2025 @ 13:02 Good afternoon family & friends❣️ It is a sunny day, supposed to be mild and breezy. I won't be going anywhere. And no plans. After getting up at about 11:15 I've been doing the "morning 3" and just finished that. And had my first cup of tea (which is like 2 cups as I make it in a big mug); today's combination was ginger/turmeric/cinnamon and pumpkin, sweetened with caramel pecan flavored sweetener and of course, the low carb creamer that I make which contains collagen as well. In the colder months I like creamy tea; in the hot weather I like clear fruity teas. Haven't had coffee in well over a month; though I love it, it doesn't always love me! Anyway, today will be about the same as the last few days: quiet, calm, and - no doubt - lots of sleep. I want to post something, not sure what, if I can - it will be a surprise to us all! I hope you have a great day and I will see you later❣️✝️🎹🐕‍🦺🦜🙌🍅🥩🌿🤕🚌❤️ chia.owly.net/aint-that-the-truth ~ chia.owly.net/video-of-the-day ~

Nov 23, 2025 @ 15:54 Good afternoon family & friends❣️ After an early night to bed I got up at about 13:15 this afternoon, had something to eat, and have been working on my "morning 3" (and a brief health page update) ever since; slow going today. Won't be doing any posts today, but Don's guest post is up and linked below. So not much about which to write 🤷‍♀️. I hope you are having a great weekend and I will see you tomorrow, most likely, unless something blogworthy happens that I can share later❣️✝️🎹🐕‍🦺🦜🙌🍅🥩🌿🤕🚌❤️

Nov 22, 2025 @ 18:14 Good evening family & friends. I have been in bed, mostly sleeping, since yesterday evening. I got up late this afternoon to eat something and spend a little time with the PoiBoiz but will be going back to bed shortly. I updated my health page for those interested in details but basically, I'm just doing what I can do - or not doing what I can't do. No updates of any kind today, I'm sorry, and will see you - God willing - tomorrow. ❣️🥱🤕🙏🛌

Nov 21 2025 @ 21:21 (!) Good evening family & friends❣️ Today was about as I expected...except for Maxwell...that bird 🙂‍↔️... While Pete was sleeping after his treatment and I was in the living room with the birds, Maxwell fell back behind the table upon which their cages sit, way back in the far corner. I have the table covered with a sheet, and a huge heavy tote under it that it packed full with bird cleaning supplies, foods, heavy bags of crushed walnut shell, toys and toy parts...it is heavy! And since my accident bending over - well, I just don't do it now - so when Max didn't find his own way out after a few minutes I went to get Pete to help. All told, Max was trapped for about 20 minutes, by the time Pete had moved my furniture where I sit, then the tote (slowly and carefully because he couldn't see exactly where Maxwell was). When Max did finally stumble out, he startled us both by flying straight up between us and making a circle out of the room before landing - it was so quick! Max is absolutely fine, he was a little shaky so I put him directly into his cage with a treat in his dish so I'd know when he was settled, and that was only a few minutes before he climbed off his perch to get it. Once again it struck me that if something happened to one of my PoiBoiz I would be absolutely devastated! And they'll get extra cuddles from now on. Anyway, I slept most of the afternoon and well into the evening, as expected, and will be going to bed soon again so I'll be shutting down after this and will see you in the morning, good night❣️🥱🤕🙏🛌

Nov 21, 2025 @ 11:52 Good morning family & friends❣️ I have no plans except for rest and recovery and naps after the last couple of days, and some quality T5 time if I can - similar to yesterday's if possible! Meanwhile I have slept late, updated the morning 3, posted today's Friday Funnies, and am enjoying the PoiBoiz company while Pete is back in the bedroom, all wrapped up in his space suit (he has a pressure suit he wears for an hour twice a day to help with the lymphodema he has developed; thankfully he was able to start treatment early on); he usually falls asleep during his treatment, and once it's done the machine shuts itself off and he keeps sleeping, most of the time. His sleep schedule since retirement is more like a long nap at night and a shorter one during the day. It's rare for him to sleep more than 4-6 hours at night. Anyway, I am rambling so I will end it here for now and will see you later. Have a fantabulous Friday❣️✝️🎹🐕‍🦺🦜🙌🍅🥩🌿🤕🚌❤️ chia.owly.net/aint-that-the-truth ~ chia.owly.net/video-of-the-day ~

Nov 20, 2025 @23:10 Good evening family & friends❣️ Just got back from the kids' play a little bit ago, it was quite long but thoroughly enjoyable! Also got to see Casey's BFF since childhood there which was a bonus! It was a great show, as they always are, and we were so proud of the kids❣️❣️. And now I'm ready for bed as soon as I take care of the PoiBoiz. I also had over an hour of quality time on my T5 today, something I haven't been able to do for quite a while so that made me happy. I'll be logging off as soon as I finish this but will see you in the morning, good night❣️🥱🤕🙏🛌
