Hi, no I’m going back In the morning for a fasting blood test and ECG. I’m trying to eat as much as possible now lol as after 6pm can eat or drink [emoji25]
Hopefully they'll sort it. I have to do a fasting blood test annually. It is torture, but a really hearty dinner at 5.30pm sees me through as long as the appointment isn't too late next day. It's only drinking water that's the hard one!

Almost forgot! Today is Central Asian / Turkic / Kurdish New Year — the beginning of spring. Happy New Year, roommates!!! (Did you think the celebrations were over at the CDR?)

Let’s get together after dark in the Great Hall and celebrate by jumping over a bonfire. (We can burn the meerkats if we don’t find any wood or old tires) ;)
Ooh there's always an excuse for a festival in the CDR. It is good having so many different cultures in here :)

That sock pile might be good fire kindling... the wool spider (if she exists) seems to have knitted enough to supply us for decades. She may still be going thanks to Mark's pictures!

I can understand you well Lena. I am a night owl because I must not get up early.
Nice to see you at daytime my dear friend.:):<3:
I've got to stay up until 11p to watch my shows. Can't miss 'em, ya know? And then Misty and Sterling wake me up at 6a, but I snooze until 7a. But us old fogies don't need much sleep - besides that, there's always nap time!

I think Dan found it when he went on the exploration the other day. I think it was in the (or a) basement. I can't remember which corner he found the stairs in though. We might have to settle for the Pirate's best hot chocolate with marshmallows and the glow of a heap of jellyfish.

I think their batteries are fine by the way, but they sure are dusty. They all need a really good polish.

Of course!! That’s the one where you go to have conversations with yourself. The hall is so big that no one can hear what you’re saying from across the room. Sometimes it takes hours before a roommate’s voice is heard by the rest of us.
Though, I suspect, some have wandered into the Great Hall simply by mistake, not because they didn’t want anyone to hear them. I like to go there to sing. :oops:

The white patch on her leg you must observe. Unfortunately antibiotics are known to depresse the own immune system. After a treatment with antibiotics sometimes some weird fungus can develop.

My Cesur would come to purr on my chest, hugging me and kneading and occasionally clawing me. Now he does all that to someone else. Forgotten me surprisingly quickly. Which is good, of course.

Lol. They will come in handy for me when really starts to get cold.
