Thank God! I finished my paper (barely) and survived my final. My poor hand is exhausted.

Good thing I'm finished, too, because I'm suffering from what I hope is some kind of intermittent strabismus. (I hope, because from what I read, the alternatives are worse!) I'd use a " :( " face, but one of the smiley's eyes should be wandering...


I had that problem too. And it turned out to be caused by allergies and a potassium-sodium imbalance.

Remedy for me was to avoid allergens (especially chocolates) and eat more celery sticks.

That was better than drugs which the doctor wanted to prescribe. I didn't like all the side effects. I don't like meds as I am chemically sensitive.

My prayers for your full recovery

Lovingly in Christ,
Elizabeth

So, are you saying that you DIDN'T eat at Gordon Biersch today? :D

We did... Yesterday (just because our friend had a friend in town and wanted to bring other people to meet him - so we had to be social the Navy way). Today I made mac n cheese. :yum: Guess I should have fasted New Calendar as I'll be in Finland on the feast day... oh well... :sorry:

Now we're hanging blinds... almost all done with downstairs... makes a huge difference in this heat.

Matrona,
try some Gatorade. I've been feeling sluggish and weird and my eyes have been acting up the past few days. Today I had two big glasses of Gatorade and I felt 100% better.

I bought a camera that a friend of mine highly recommended. It is a Nikon, but it's the CoolPix 2500... OK for little snapshots, but anything more complicated than that and it requires too much work on photoshop!

Yeah, my 4300 Coolpix is the same way. But the Nikon 6006 SLR is an awesome semi-pro film camera. I have taken spectacular photographs with my 2 6006's!

I went into Whole Foods Market the other day, and my vision started doing a crystals thing.

I immediately polished off a 16 oz. bottle of water and my vision returned to normal. So I guess it was a combination of dehydration combined with the triple digit weather we have been experiencing.

I like the Trader Joes Lemonaid. It really hits the spot. Gatorade has too many unnatural ingredients.

That sounds like a plan! I have a huge canister of Gatorade. Thanks, Khaleas!

I just got a shipment!
A few books by Chesterton (incl. "The Everlasting Man"), a couple of books for my kids, one of which I hadn't seen for 35 years, and PEANUT BUTTER!!! :yum: :yum: 6 jars, + 2 of those mixed PB+J. Should last a month and a half, with careful rationing. Oh, wait, I've got kids - make that 2 weeks.

Mike,

Have you seen a recent edition of the Onion Dome?

I havent checked lately, but they have had a recent edition within the past few months. I think the Reader Alexis could use a bit of a pick up and some encouragement!

Don,

I wanted to rep you to get you over that three digit unmentionable number.

But, the thing says that I have to rep other people before I can rep you again.

Just wanted to let you know that I have really been enjoying your posts here and over in the Outreach.

It seems to have reverted to normal :( ie cloudy and temp is only about 57Degrees

The weekend looks a wee bit better though :)

We had some overnight rain - but it wasn't much and so far the day is very pleasant.

OH - the trees are starting to drop their leaves :( Autumn [ Fall ] must be approaching

Look forward to hearing from Emmanuel what's it's like over there .
