The ole glug glug method of measurement. My friend did that as well and her food was always good.
Might also be an app that didn't want to sleep whey you moved to something else.

That's how the past generations did it! Problem is, my wife tried to get some recipes from her mother before she passed and her memory was still good enough. She had no actual recipes other then what was in her head and it was a handful of this, a pinch of that and a small splash of this. There are some things she just cant duplicate like her mom did.

Good morning gang!
47° under cloudy skies, only looking for a high today 64°.
It was an unusual night last night. Got home just after six, wife had dinner ready, after eating I laid down on the bed to do some scrolling on Facebook. At some point, I fell asleep and didn’t wake up till 530 this morning. Totally zonked out.
No chores, no trains, no TV, just sleep

Good Autumn morning folks. 61°F and cloudy this morning.
All but one day has had the temperature forecast changed to the 70°F for the coming weekend. Sunday is supposed to be 81°F and besides Sunday , the next ten days are all upper 70's.
Nothing going on here today. Getting in some more rest. Feeling better every day, but the drain and cat are still in to help monitor my bladder recovery. I saw my surgeon yesterday and we talked about it and both of us agreed it was better left in place in spite of the discomfort and inconvenience.
I have another CT scan on 01OCT with dye, to check for leakage of the bladder into the abdominal cavity, and I'm closely monitoring my drain volume every 24 hrs. So far, everything looks to be healed, but since the bladder is evacuated and decompressed, there is really no way of knowing short of invasive surgery to physically inspect the bladder. The CT scan w/dye is a great indicator though.
Probably sit outside and watch Willow play later today and that is all I'm doing today. Have a great Thursday.
Servus!

Good morning all!
Mostly clear and a cool 54F. Today will be mainly sunny and 69F.
Usual stuff around the house today. Have a couple loads of laundry I will start after everyone gets out of the shower. Dishwasher needs
emptying from last nights cycle, and a quick run thru with the vacuum.
Have a volleyball game tonight at home so no travel involved.
Not much else going on.
Have a safe day everyone!

Good morning from Wisconsin. For Troy it’s 10C now and 22C is the guess for later or about 6 degrees higher that the forecast posted by the NWS yesterday. In American it’s 49 now and 71 later
Going north to put down some plaster. I’m working on the 1st deck of the entrance blob. This is the top deck
Today’s deck can seen underneath

The bridge scene has been altered since I was last there so some cardboard strips before Celluclay
Enjoy your day

I had to look that up, and you are correct sir!
And you are still correct.
Your body was telling you something.
That sounds like a great day!

Good Morning All. Clear and 75°, 24°C for Troy's sake.. High today just like yesterday, is forecast to be in the mid-90's, it was 96° yesterday. The NWS has thrown a few rain chances into the forecast during the next ten days, maybe we'll get some.
Nothing special about yesterday, didn't have to be anywhere! That means that there is still mail left in the mailbox down the road to be picked up on the way out this morning for the weekly grocery trek. Unless my wife has decided that it isn't important enough to stop until the way home. Today's will be there by then. We get daily notifications regarding what's put in there so we (she) can decide whether it's worth the trip down there or not. Today's trek is a clean one for the most part, gas for the car, post office and the weekly pharmacy stop are all in the present plan. But wifey may have other unknown destinations in mind that I haven't been made aware of yet. Whatever, there is still the dishwasher to deal with either before I go or when I return...or a little of both.
Lazy day out in the train shed yesterday. Just didn't feel like any modeling so I ran trains for about 2 hours. Switched out industries in 3 towns and ran several through trains to break up the action. Primarily ran trains with SD40-2's at the helm, except one local with GP30U's.

Louis - Why aren't you at work this morning (and yesterday)?
The late singer, Gerry Marsden of Gerry and the Pacemakers was born on this day in 1942.
Everyone have a great Thursday.

I am an eyeballer now and I am not concerned with being that precise!

Just using "F to C" is easier and you don't need to worry about spelling!

Made the trip to the grocery. Needed carrots for the shepherds pie I'm making tonight.
The jumbo-haulers were all plugged in, and I found one on GREEN charge condition. So, Awaaaaa-aaaay I went.
Started at the hardware end of the store (Meijer - like a Walmart, but different brand), so I swung into the electronics aisle. I wasn't expecting to find any, but I did!
$12.99 for a double disk set of the greatest hits of the predatory raptor band. Two disks, one low price.
And the top one is the Tragically Hip 2 disk set that I got from Amazon yesterday. Amazon says the CD Player should arrive today. So Jamming will commence once it arrives.
Not sure how much jamming

The nurse must have been busy as the eye drops scheduled for 1900 didn’t happen until 2130. Yep understand that I am low priority as compared to the other patients, so no problem. After she was done, I did my nightly ritual of grabbing 5 hot towels and commenced the towel bath and clothes change. Keep the skank down as much as I can.
Will be seeing the doc tomorrow and will get photos taken. I will see if I can get a copy. The gas bubble is continuing to raise the temperature of the earth and is now less than 1/4 left.

I was wondering if my new iPad battery was burning out already as I charge to 80% and watch it quickly go down. It is currently at 50% so I thought that I might have been charging too fast with my three amp charger. But I read online that the iPad controls the charge rate and when I looked at the battery settings, it told me that the last time I charged it to 80% was at 1500 today now it is 2230 and I’ve been watching YouTube all day long I guess the battery is fine.

Do a hard shut down and restart. then start looking for bluetooth or wifi connections that are not connecting. Sometimes it gets stuck in a searching loop that drains it fast.
Might also be an app that didn't want to sleep whey you moved to something else.
We had a first REAL Fall sunrise. It won't drop below 50, in the morning for a while, but it won't get above 75 in the afternoon either. We may actually get a little rain (finally) this afternoon and Friday.
Nicki is still making slow progress at PT. She's still in a lot of pain if she moves around too much without the walker. We see the surgeons PA on Monday. Life goes on.

Sounds like one of my packages from earlier this month. Houston held onto it for a week, then Dallas wanted it, the Houston wanted it again. Finally delivered after 20 days of playing keep-away
Check “background app refresh”, as well. You’d be surprised by all the crap running in the background. And stuff gets turned back on whenever there is an uldate, too.

A great start to your collection.

Like Louis said.
That's how the past generations did it! Problem is, my wife tried to get some recipes from her mother before she passed and her memory was still good enough. She had no actual recipes other then what was in her head and it was a handful of this, a pinch of that and a small splash of this. There are some things she just cant duplicate like her mom did.

MRI Results are back. This seems to be the pressing issue.
1. At L5-S1, there is mild degenerative disease with superimposed posterior central and left paracentral disc herniation causing moderate central canal stenosis, severe left subarticular stenosis with compression of the left S1 nerve root, and moderate to severe left neural foraminal stenosis with mild flattening of the exiting left L5 nerve root.
2. At L4-5, there is mild degenerative disc disease with mild to moderate bilateral subarticular stenosis and right neural foraminal stenosis.
3. Acute or subacute Schmorl's node of the right anterior inferior endplate of L4 with bone edema or type I Modic endplate change
Go see the Ortho professionals tomorrow.
I expect that I'll be back to PT next week.
