Ho, Ho, Ho!


What a difference a day makes.

Wind and rain yesterday with leaves falling like sleet. Today clear, cold skies greet my eyes, and my sense of humor lurks in the corner. Yesterday humor had left the room.

I did deal with the “bill” from my medication mail-in-order place. After a great argument with a poor new customer service guy who said I had to do this, that, and this too, I got a supervisor who agreed that my meds had always gone on a credit card. Gee.

I reached the dentist too. Thinking I would get an appointment in a few weeks to remove the orts of a root left by a previous dentist that was now imperiling a major tooth, I found myself with another dizzy spell before having that root out.

Then I came home to make cookies. My kids make really good cookies. My best friend makes beautiful cookies. I made pancakes, then I made jaw breakers. My inexperience makes me a laughingstock in my own mind. They tasted good tho. I’ll cut up the chocolate chip pancakes and call them chocolate chip bars.

This morning I feel great.



  • Keeping all those on the east coast in my thoughts.

  • Himself: Bone tired after half hour at the gym Monday. Tomorrow he will try 15 minutes.

  • Herself: Vastly better today. Took 2 Aleve before bed last night.

  • Reading: Finished the latest Maisie Dobbs.

  • Balance: Reading while watching both NCIS's.




When the chips are down........
Make cookies!


Muchas Smuchas

Your cookies make me laugh. Those kinds are the ones you have to eat yourself because you're too embarrased to give the away.  [aunty EM (2)] 12/19/2012 10:31:25 AM
Very cute photo! Glad you are doing so well! Good news all around. [the_mysticalmuse] 12/19/2012 10:32:23 AM
OH I am having the same issue with my meds in the mail place. They billed me for $100+ and when I called them, I was told I have a $20 credit. Both should be impossible since they have my credit card and my authorization. Grrrr... [zipster] 12/19/2012 11:43:25 AM
A mnan in AA when he shares always used this line. His hobby is baking Brownies and he brings them to meetings.
He Says " When stressed or tempted, Bake Brownies " [ThomaS]

Your cookie cooking made me smile. I never cook biscuits -Australian for cookies - because of lack of skill and lack of willpower to prevent myself from eating them but I do know every good biscuit-producing shop in our city, for those times when I need to take a plate of biscuits somewhere. [Arbi] 12/19/2012 3:08:04 PM
Or just go for the bars in the first place. And what if brownies is your drug of choice? Your day sounds productive and I love that photo. [BonnieRose] 12/19/2012 3:08:31 PM
I like chocolate chip pancakes even hard ones. I love you [Lessa] 12/20/2012 8:20:07 AM
I used to have a good reputation as a baker ... not anymore. :/ [Tehachap] 1/8/2013 8:44:13 PM
