National Weather Service has already issued flash flood warnings in my state over the next 48 hours. Rain is supposed to start tonight.

READY THE CANOES!! D:

The rain here has been plentiful. It's like the summer rain came late because there was barely any rain during the actual summer.

If you want, you may find some over-the-counter meds such as Dramamine, Bonine, or Antivert that can help steady your balance if you get a bout of vertigo. I've had vertigo maybe twice in my life, and if I took just one of those pills each day for maybe 5 days, the vertigo would just pass. I took the lowest dose possible. I don't know what the brand name would be in Mexico, but the ingredient in all is meclizine. I hope this passes for you. Vertigo ranges from mild to fairly intense, depending upon the person.

I think we have dramamine..
I will have to check around..
thanks for the suggestions.

The Kingdom Keeper books are pretty good, I am about 200 pages from finishing the series. My husband is even reading them.

I wonder if they are good. I'm still a child at heart. My last book I read.. were of the RISE OF THE GUARDIANS creator (The Guardians of Childhood trilogy)

I keep hoping it's like that movie Defending Your Life with Albert Brooks and Meryl Streep. You get to eat whatever you want, everything is delicious, and you don't gain any weight!!

so.. like the casper live action movie?
where they eat.. it fall thru them..so no fattening?

I thought that one puzzle said "ice cold beer".

Hahaaa...!
Which I'm enjoying the last few sips of right now, actually...!!!

But, I'm out for now, gang. To say the least, it's been a long day, but, it's back to the grind tomorrow.

Pop is doing even better than they expected, and they are quite surprised. His sense of humor is crackin' up the medical staff and us, as per usual...!

Again, I can't thank you all enough for the support. You all are angels.
The sweetest of sweet dreams to each and every one of y'all...!
See y'all reeeeeaaalllllll sooooooonnnnnn...!!!

 

[Gabe1]

Oh, for goodness sake. There's no poop in heaven!! That's an "earth" thing.

Hahahahaha!!! Post of the Day.

Curious. I've always found it interesting what verses people pick to support their theology. What verse clarifies 'there is no poop in heaven?

Wish I had a glass of wine to spit at the screen.

 

[Gabe1]

Just for you, and @Gabe1, @MOXOMUMD , @catmom46 , @betty rose , and @figmentfan423 -- you can still buy these!!! (Now, all we need are big, long sweaters!)

OMG! Those look like the guys gymnastic pants! Giggle!

Did you go fall shopping yet. Those long sweaters are back again. I look back at photos of me, Big hair, Big Sweaters....ultimately in hindsight this fashion is best on tall slender women. Me, while fairly slender at least for my age, I am too freak'n short for such long sweaters and a tad too old for leggings. Thinking I am best to keep wearing my jeans though those sweaters were mighty comfy.

More Hugs for Pops and the entire family. Rest well my friend.

That's what we call the grad school students at my work - they actually will try to get food before a meeting or event sometimes!

Yep. Grad students are usually the poorest of the poor. I forget what you do, are you in education?

 

[Gabe1]

Christmas dinner at Hogwarts for only $350. Includes a special wand and butterbeer.

 

[Gabe1]

They have low sodium soups in their line as well.

Why would you want to contaminate an American staple like that, with extra veggies??!!

Ha! Actually fresh soup is one of the easiest things in the world to create. It takes little effort especially in a chock-pot. I had the best goulash soup over the summer and I am trying to find a recipe that duplicates it and I am hard pressed to find one close enough and this place isn't about to give it up. I have Hungarian Goulash stew mastered. I'm tempted to try and convert it into a soup. I'd have to try and dilute it enough without giving up the flavor which would be expensive trial by error.

Kingdom keepers is on my bucketlist. Now all I need is time.

 

[Gabe1]

We're not allowed to bring treats like these to our daughter's school.

Us either. All treats must be commercial. @Songbird76 birthday treats are beautiful. I am so lacking in any baking talent let alone decorating like that.

We can't bring any sweets, even if commercial. Must be healthy stuff.

I scrolled past on your reply and I didn't see the r in the work britches. I scrolled back really quick because I was like WhAAAAAAAAAT is going on here?!!? Guess I shouldn't read so quickly.

No, I work for a non-profit that does research and analysis of policy issues, so that is what they teach at the grad school. I don't do the actual research, I just make sure the researchers are compliant, as well as other relevant tasks.

 

[Gabe1]

Hah! That would have been an epic censor fail.

Not nearly as big of a censor filter fail as our elementary school. Oy. What images slipped through for 8-11 year old filter. Angry parents. Enlightened children. So not good. So many letters, emails, phone calls. Can I promise we will make sure the filters never fail again, No.
Oy. It isn't even Monday.

Compliant. That word just sends shivers up my spine. So many ways to unknowingly mess up even with due diligence.
