Every so often my son gives up coffee and he always gets terrible headaches from the caffeine withdrawal. Sounds like you're doing fine without it.
I did have awfull headaches the first week. Hmm definitly not going to start with coffee again if that is going to happen everytime.

I have NETFLIX. Movies of all kinds ( action, commedy, romantic films... and more ), starting when I push the button, without any annoying advertises.
It costs 10 Euros a month and it is better than any free TV. I can`t bear the advertising breaks any longer. But I still have to pay for the TV I am not using any more. What a shame.
We have NETFLIX here too. I just haven't joined it yet. Maybe one day.

You don`t know what you are missing. Try it.;)
I would love to get rid of cable TV. It costs me $130 a month. I was looking into Sling TV, but learned that it is a internet-based TV. I have slow internet, plus I don't want to watch TV on my computer and my TV isn't connected to the internet. Netflix is also internet-based, right? Besides, I love all the cable channels. My favorite TV watching is on cable. I wish I could find a cheaper way to see all my favorite shows. I'm not much for movies, but don't mind watching old re-runs of TV shows.

You pay a lot for your TV channels. :eek: Yes, NETFLIX is internet based. Makes no sense with a slow internet.

Time to go out and take care of the animals. Later!
LATER is the key word.
I am late, very late Yvonne, but now I am growing your seeds of love and I hope the seeds will thrive although it is late...
I totally forgot them. SORRY !
I will take some pics when the little plants come out of the soil.

Well, I spent a lot of time on the computer this a.m. looking at freezerless refrigerators, and that made me late fixing the tortoises' morning rations. Then I came back onto the forum because standing all that time preparing the food gave me a back ache and I needed to sit for a few minutes. This means it is now 10:22a (I usually feed about 7:30a or 8a), 89F (the 'F' stands for freaking) degrees and I really don't want to go outside. Besides that, I have an aching thumb. Don't know what's wrong with it - maybe carpel tunnel of the thumb from chop, chop, chopping up all those greens for baby tortoises? Can someone please give me some sympathy? :(

Good day all.

Another 90 degree plus day forecast for our region. This will be the 15th or so day above 90 this Summer...and many more on the horizon over the next fortnight. Hey it’s Summer. As long as the humidity stays “relatively” low it’s going to be a nice day.

Shed Project - all the exterior pinecone green should be done today. Might start the trim.


Ok....I’m disapointed that no punster in here picked up on the “relatively” low humidity pun...

Good evening all. A very brief visit to electronic hug anyone who's around.... I'll leave a few extra hugs in corner 4 in vase anyone needs another :)

Mark the shed is looking great and I am very jealous about hummingbirds!

The next few days are kind of busy... somehow we need to find somewhere for Son to live when he starts his job. There's not much time and a lot happening; diaries need rearranging!

And I have an all day meeting on Thursday. I got about 40% of the paperwork done today, but must complete the rest tomorrow... it's data analysis and numbs the brain :(
