back from wandering, did a lot of errands. mountain man hubby tried to change the sink faucet washer to get rid of a small drip (quiet!)
broke the copper fittings in one swipe. Lowe's had best prices for moen set. cat the code enforcer is watching him.....
did the jewelry appraisal to finally suck it up emotionally and get rid of parents/grandparents jewelry, army medals and unit badges, wedding rings and stuff (expensive clutter) - went to jewelers; not pawn or cash for gold places, get more value credit. like a weight has been lifted!!! got cash, wedding ring of my grand/mom/my engagement combined but stronger,
and he kept my briefcase for the rolex parts and silver/gold chains, ect.
to add up more cash later.
QUESTION: were Purple Hearts gold filled? is that just a rumor? this one is still pristine in the case with the flag ribbon and the lapel pin, every bit a WWII issue. very heavy. Out of Respect, he is gonna hook me up with someone from the VA. another reason to ask a jeweler......

Something else McCook didn't tell me- gall stones can clog up the duct, causing problems with the pancreas. Probably would not have put it off so long if I had known that. Things looked good in the CT other than the gall bladder. Gall stones don't tend to pass. Kidney stones do, and I've heard lemon juice really helps with them.
How the gall bladder gets you is if you eat something too greasy, it starts to spasm when it can't push any bile out, and the fat gasses you up. Kinda makes for a vapor lock. Then your body tells you that you hurt all over because it can't really pinpoint the cause.
If I had a spoonful of baking soda in a glass of water when I ate that fried chicken skin I probably would have been fine.
They gave me morphine for the pain, and it knocked me right out. Can't see how anyone could call that a "recreational" drug. You're not conscience so you can't recreate. Worked so quick I fell asleep in the CT machine.

was there a hospital code for big farmer left on MRI table? does a maintenance man arrive with a dolly? ahhhhhhh contemplate.....
well, back to Lowe's cause hubby needed a brass reducer fitting. good time. then while trying to call some folks, a yell! he had broken the supply before the valve........ I will not find my phone but I can make it to the basement water supply and jump the eight feet to shut off the valves in about six seconds.....

It's probably just coincidence but when I started having kidney stones I ate asparagus with lemon juice for a couple of days and they went away.
All I know is it didn't cost much and doesn't have any purported "miracle" properties attributed to it.
Don't know but the back of the one my Uncle had was buffed down pretty well and it looked like brass or copper.
You would make a lousy doper.
I feel sorry for what you have gone though and am glad you are getting it treated.

Good morning. It's a balmy 4 degrees above 0 this morning and with almost no wind, it feels like a heatwave! Amazing what effect a few degrees and no wind has on wood consumption. The OWB could have gone another couple hours before it needed to be filled, where-as yesterday it was almost out at the same time.
It is Wednesday, January 29th.
1848 - Greenwich Mean Time was adopted by Scotland.
1850 - Henry Clay introduced in the Senate a compromise bill on slavery that included the admission of California into the Union as a free state.
1861 - In America, Kansas became the 34th state of the Union.
1886 - The first successful petrol-driven motorcar, built by Karl Benz, was patented.
1916 - In World War I, Paris was bombed by German zeppelins for the first time.
1940 - The W. Atlee Burpee Seed Company displayed the first tetraploid flowers at the New York City Flower Show. (this one's for B0b)
1949 - "The Newport News" was commissioned as the first air-conditioned naval ship in Virginia.
1979 - U.S. President Carter formally welcomed Chinese Vice Premier Deng Xiaoping to the White House. The visit followed the establishment of diplomatic relations.
1985 - The Dow Jones industrial average peaked at 1,292.62.
1987 - "Physician’s Weekly" announced that the smile on the face of Leonardo DeVinci's Mona Lisa was caused by a "...facial paralysis resulting from a swollen nerve behind the ear."
1990 - Joseph Hazelwood, the former skipper of the Exxon Valdez, went on trial in Anchorage, AK, on charges that stemmed from America's worst oil spill. Hazelwood was later acquitted of all the major charges and was convicted of a misdemeanor.
1997 - America Online agreed to give refunds to frustrated customers under threat of lawsuits across the country. Customers were unable to log on after AOL offered a flat $19.95-a-month rate.
1998 - A bomb exploded at an abortion clinic in Birmingham, AL, killing an off-duty policeman and severely wounding a nurse. Eric Rudolph was charged with this bombing and three other attacks in Atlanta.
1999 - The U.S. Senate delivered subpoenas for Monica Lewinsky and two presidential advisers for private, videotaped testimony in the impeachment trial.
Today's thought:
Individually, we are one drop. Together, we are an ocean.
C0ffee & ph00 are ready. Frozen donuts is today's treat.
TOB&F please!

Good morning to the gang. Scott - - 4 degrees and you are happy??? HORRORS. It has been so long since I had to live in that kind of weather it sends shivers down me thinking about it. Our high today is slated for 62 - - cold for here. At least the low will not be bad. That nasty mess should be here tomorrow - - back to 78 by Saturday. Yeh.
I love asparagus but never did think about it medicinally until recently. Very interesting. Started watching and listening and quite amazing at the success stories about it.
Grabbing my ph00 and go get something done................

I have faith in a lot of that stuff, especially if it's natural and isn't that homeopathic dilution nonsense.

Asparagus tips look odd when strategically placed in a sleeping persons ears and nose.
My favorite way to ingest them is lightly grilled on the bbq with a sprinkle of garlic and a splash of lemon.
Looks like things are moving along smoothly with the rebuild of the basement. Adjuster was surprisingly generous with what all can be done.
I'm out the door for the last long haul road trip! So grateful!

I got all 4 of mine out of the safe and while they do feel heavy I do not think they are gold filled.
