Hello, Geezer coming back to this forum. Paul B

We are having a bunch of company for dinner tonight so I have been cooking and baking all day. I am making Manhattan clam chowder for the people who like (and asked) for that.

The other couple don't eat sea food, (must be Communists) so we are making them meatloaf. I also baked 2 loaves of rosemary olive oil bread Italian bread and made Bruschetta which will go on this bread after I slightly toast it.

For a side on the meatloaf I am making Rosemary, lemon potatoes.

Rice pudding for dessert

You’re making me hungry, which is odd after chemo .

You’re making me hungry, which is odd after chemo .

After a treatment, I always go get something to eat.

After a treatment, I always go get something to eat.

I hardly eat anything for two days after

Serving Time Please.

My problem is I can't sleep for two days after. Don't know which sucks more.

 

[Paul B]

As far as I know there isn't anything wrong with me....Physically except for bones, joints, ligaments, disks etc. I just can't sleep.

Sleep eludes me and if I don't take something to sleep, I am wasting my time going to bed.

 

[Vinny Kreyling]

The body still needs down time to rest.

 

[Paul B]

I wish my brain knew that.

 

[Vinny Kreyling]

It does now!

 

[Misled]

Nah, it forgot already.

This is very cool. It takes pictures and sculptures of historical figures and puts modern hairstyles and clothes on them to see how they would look today.

That is cool. The smiles added a lot to it.

Last week I mixed up 30 gallons of ASW. I am a little afraid to use NSW right now due to all the rain we had. The last time I used it, I had a produce farm.

A day after I mixed it, it had a weird chemical smell that I never noticed before. (It's Instant Ocean) After a few days, the smell dissipated so I didn't know if I should use it or not. I really don't want to crash the tank over something so silly as a water change. Not that I change so much water.

Anyway, to test it, I put a small torch coral in the new water to see if it croaks or burst into flames. It's been 15 minutes and so far the coral doesn't seem to even know it is in new water so if it looks good in an hour, I will change it.

 

[Vinny Kreyling]

Gas???

 

[Paul B]

How would I get gas in ASW? I would love to get gas from my tap. It costs a lot more than water.

Well . . .

 

[Vinny Kreyling]

Wrong kind of gas Paul.
It is after all the LOUNGE !

 

[Paul B]

I just changed the water and so far all if fine.

So I have been coughing my brains out for a week and a TV crew is coming here in 4 days so I don't want to look like I am croaking when they are here. Normally I wouldn't care but I wanted to see if a Dr. could give me something to suppress this cough at least for a couple of days. After that I could get Diphtheria, irritable Bowell or appendicitis.

In the meantime, my wife wanted me to go out and get celery keeping in mind that we are in the middle of a blizzard and are supposed to get 8" of snow.
This was early this morning when it just started.

(make believe there is a snowy picture here)

I get to the Supermarket and weave between the snow plows to get inside for celery.

The saleslady said to me, You came out on a day like this for celery? I said, yes. I am married. Do you think my Mother would send me out on a day like this for celery?

Anyway today my wife has an appointment for a MRI and the MRI place don't answer the phone so I figured I would drive the 8 miles there to see if they were open. Of course not. Bunch of Sissies. A couple of inches of snow and the world stops.

But next to the MRI place is one of those "Doc in a Box" places. You know where they advertise, no waiting, instant care and all that.

I go in and the place is pretty empty, like 2 people waiting. I go to the "nurse" at the window and ask if this is one of those "immediate care places". She says yes. But there is no doctor here and he may get here in 2 or 3 hours if he comes in at all.

I told her, that isn't exactly the "Immediate" care I am looking for...Bye.
