Injury update! Last Saturday when playing tennis I heard a pop in my calf but managed to not go down! It was a grade one tear and is going to take a few weeks without tennis to heal! BTW the wife got her work present and it's a deep tissue massage gun and wow does it help!
Was it your Achilles tendon?

I hope you make a speedy recovery, I found my IR massager good too.

Sorry to interrupt Lyn ….
But my thought is almost the same.
When you tell someone they HAVE to do something, they tell you to blow it out your……..?

BUTTTTT…or …. However……
If you ask or even politely nudge people to do something… they come to do it in MASSES!!!! ??
Very true!
I think they call it Reverse phycology!
We used to use it with the kids in school - tell they mustn't or can't do something you want them to do - and they do it!

Good morning all and Happy Thursday! Wishing everyone a fabulous day.
also want to say thank you for the Christmas cards that I have received. The smiles they brought are very special to me!
Hello Heather, haven't said hello to you in awhile. Hope all is well with you and your family.

So for a long time I ha e dealt with spray cans, glues, and caulks expiring well before they should or being way to sluggish. I used an old cabinet that I tore out of the kitchen and borrowed the RHP from my Russians outdoor enclosure to create a warming cabinet. It just takes too much energy and money to keep the whole shed warm in the winter so smaller is better. I keep it at 70 and it is awesome. The doors are almost 100 years old too! Being off from work helped too just had to go a little slower

I know what you mean. I used to buy large bottles of glue etc but the problem is they do go bad. Sometimes even inside but they are in a room I keep warmer than 70 most of the time. Now I go through my older stuff and see what I need just for the job. It doesn't help to save the money if it's just going to go bad anyway.

I finally got to try Mark's introduction to soba noodles and they're pretty darn good. They sit well on my stomach and they will be my go to instead of spaghetti. My son and I tried our hand at oriental cuisine a couple of days ago. It was good if I say so myself. Even though we aren't quite the pro chefs of stir fry yet. Practice makes perfect.?

Good morning/afternoon all, same old weather here.
Lola is still in his bed and not showing any signs of being sociable today (not that he is usually!)
I hope you're all having a good Thursday - is it really Xmas Day in 9 days time??????
We have had on/off storms all day but it’s 77f here! It’s crazy!!! I saw Toretto out cruising earlier in the rain.
I just can’t fathom Christmas yet ?
