$1.80 here this morning.


Glen your phone may have a fitness tracker in it. Mine tells me how many steps and mileage. Keeps track daily. iPhone 5 has a heart ♥️ on the app icon. It was just on there, I did not add it.

Nope, maybe when the get me updated from my 3G flip phone payday.   I've been told I have to up date.   They were looking at them today and trying to get me to decide, throwing numbers, figures and other type office worker stuff at me.  Told them I was done fooling with it, payday order me one and I'll learn to use it.  Too much bullshit for me, they did promise me when the data contract runs out on my tablet they would be able to show me how to operate it through the phone so I've got a bigger picture if I want it.

I'm a dinosaur they say because I had them set me up with a new desktop with a CD/Rom thing in it for getting my dinosaur back up stuff loaded.  Got dual screens one big and one more normal, Get some extra pennies may buy another one to hang on the wall, one of them fancy flat screen TV's that are getting cheaper, small one maybe 2X4, they don't understand why, but I don't understand why they want to sit around and watch TV stuff on them, pretty much done with TV. ::)

We have a antique lap top to pay bills on - Suzanne has a antique pad she plays games on. We both use our antique iPhones for internet etc. slow but effective.  We can use them also as a remote for watching TV. We no longer use satellite. Use only YouTube TV. All local channels and many we don?t watch. Then a few we do watch. Half the price of cable or satellite. WiFi/Internet service provide by phone company. We could care less about updating phones.


Morning coffee is ready.

Was plenty warm yesterday nearly A/C time. Today calling for rain this evening.

Good for you Del. That's great news. You are on your way to a full recovery.

Just received delivery of an order I placed online from a local supermarket. For what it's worth, it went smooth. The shopper kept in touch with me via texting and we got most of what we ordered including one very critical item.

Good planning, Johnny.
If you have enough wine, then social distancing is a breeze!

Stay safe and wash your hands if you're passing that jug around . . .

Made my mile in 20 minutes today, rested 5 minutes and BP was 101 over 71 and heart rate was 88.

Came in the door and took off my coat and it was 148 over 91 with hr  of 101.  Took 2 rests of about 3 minutes and leaned on my cane.  Guess it's more of a leaning stick but it helps getting in and out of vehicles.

Just "got back" from church here, internet was cooperating this week. Wired the laptop to the big TV.

Sunshine outside, but was cool enough to need a fire this morning, haven't had one for several days this last week.

Delmonico, those numbers sound pretty good. Mine aren't that good, even with 2 meds a day for it.

Legs are killing me today, going to stay home, they got a workout they needed.

not quite that bad....yet  :-\

Oatmeal & litl' smokies for breakfast thanks for the coffee

Thanks for the coffee-

Little Smokies sound good I think we have a pack or two in freezer.


This isolation for me is not that difficult. However Suzanne still works, and is in contact with people everyday. They may go to NO cash sales, plastic only. To keep from handling cash. They are supplying gloves and hand sanitizers for them. They also gave them a dollar raise. Not sure that would justify them catching this virus.

Hope everyone here is remaining safe.

Jodi retired ( actually fed up ) with the property managing position she held a copula years ago....but just got SS last year.
She and her friend dabble in Mary Kay as a hobby, so that is on hold.

I on a furlough or layoff, they expect I'll to go back.... and I'm fine to do that , but at my age "IF" the current crap continues
into the Fall .... I may call it a career  :-\

Mean while I'm reloading Mil-Surp with Trail Boss for fun shooting
