Picked up some trash & my stomach is feeling a bit better but I'm back to being super hungry again. We swept up a bunch of the broken up parquet flooring in the kitchen and dumped it. I plan to keep some of the undamaged. I want to come up with a project for them. Not sure what though.
What did you do today?

We arent allowed to use a hose or wash cars here at Auckland due to having no rain and Auckland, NZs largest city is running out of water. They have just allowed the commercial house washers to start again

Maybe Will Farrel from SNL?
It wouldn't be the same show.
Sean Connery was the best contestant on the show.
Trebek was one of a kind. Loved the show even with an IQ of 10.
He made it fun.
Yeah summer was meant to start last weekend but its a bit shitty today, thunder and lightening
It better not rain tomorrow as I have a job
Nah they reckon it would really push the price of water up
We have a big river not far away where we get water from each day but the people who live in that area are complaining when Auckland wants to take more but its okay for Auckland to make beer etc etc from the water then send the beer down to them
It has been in the 70s here.
It's been high 70s here but I've been exhausted. Had a regular checkup with my doctor & found out why. My thyroid is too low again. The pharmacy changed brands on my meds & I guess the newer stuff is not as effective. I was told to take a pill & a half until I run out (which is 7 days from now). I was told to double my statins because my "good" cholesterol was too low and "bad" cholesterol was too high. My sugar was high so I need to cut back on the candy & sweets & carbs. I was told to walk for 30 minutes a day. He didn't say it had to be all at once though. I do need to walk more. I wish I still had the Wii Fit thing, I had fun with that & actually lost weight using it-- friend borrowed it & it was burned up in his house. My blood cells, liver, and kidney all seem good at least.
I'm hoping higher dose of levithyroxin will give me more energy.

I take fish pills. When I first started it dropped my cholesterol 30 points in 3 months and has kept it down since then. I can't take statins. Mine is 178.
Rusty, that's a good idea. My mom gets the krill oil vitamins. I should take some too. I hope they will fit in my pill container. Her cholesterol is pretty good. She takes all sorts of supplements-- some sort of multivitamin for women over 50, glucosomine msm + condroiten, krill oil, & some other stuff. Between her meds & her vitamins she takes about 11 pills I think.
My doctor asked if I'm still taking Tramadol & I explained that I only used that for my tooth & I stopped once I had the tooth pulled. Said they tried to push stronger narcos on me after the procedure but I didn't need it. I've had dental procedures where I wasn't completely numb before so any pain I had after the tooth was pulled was very minor.
Took Temjin (my youngest female kitty) to the vet to be spayed. Had an appointment & almost didn't make it in time. 2 trucks in front of me were going way under speed limit and riding down the middle of the road to prevent people from passing. Then there was a wreck right before the turnoff to the vet's office. I could see the vet's office but couldn't get there bc I had to wait for traffic to clear. Finally made it just in time but then had to wait 15 minutes because none of the staff were at the desk & they pretty much ignored me when they did come out. They talked to people who came in after me bc they knew them & didn't look at the list. I was trying to keep my distance from people but finally walked up & said I'd been waiting there to drop off my cat for spaying & they apologized. Had me sign paperwork & took her to the back. Swung by to see my friend on my way home. Spotted him some cash for his bills bc govt garnished over 90% of his check. He had worked overtime to be able to pay his bills only to have them take almost all of it so he couldn't pay any of his bills. He has no idea why they took that large of a portion- they have been regularly taking 50% of his check & all of a sudden they took more without any explanation. Went straight home after that & took a nap. Mom woke me right after I got into a good sleep wanting me to go back in to go to the post office. She didn't realize my brother had gone to Lafayette, had taken her car, & he could have picked up mail on his way back. He stopped to visit our friend & stayed there until dark (despite having been told by my mom that if he uses her car to go places he needs to bring it right back & not go hang out with friends). I was too tired to convey anything about my brother to her & she got mad-- stayed mad for a few hours & snapped at me when I got food for her. First I got her salad & then I made steak. She calmed down after the steak. It was supposed to be medium rare but I think it was closer to medium once it rested.
Namir (Temjin's brother) has been losing his mind & crying for her. They've never been apart for more than a few minutes & he doesn't know what happened to her so he's freaking out. Vet called to say Temjin's surgery went fine & that she's doing well. I'll be picking her up after Mom's appointment with the foot doctor. I let them know I was coming in the afternoon-- I'd normally get her in the morning but that there was an appointment conflict & I didn't want to make two trips. I was much cheaper at this vet than at my other vet for spaying. Even with tax the price is less than the base spaying price at the other vet.

Got this picture of Daris
Handsome young man.
I wish I was that old again and know what I know now. That picture is 58 years old and I was in boot camp when it was taken in 1962.
I thought that was 1862.
I was in kindergarten and during the summers I was helping grandpa install carpet. 
That is what you get for thinking. There is a picture of my son in uniform I wish could be incorporated with mine. I'm not smart enough to be able to do that. So if any takers let me know.
