"Mystery and Intrigue" shows? Naw I like comedy or romantic comedies when I'm not watching some hero run through 100 bad guys....but Ghosts UK hooked us on the series. The US version is playing now on CBS or paramount the next day w/o commercial. Funny as heck. Kerry watches AC and other Brit shows but I have the attention span of a gnat these days so I don't. I do like the Kathy Bates- Matlock but it's all the drama I can handle. Lol

Enjoy the day guys...beautiful here!

I tested my buddies"fix" for my bike today....finally. Ran great! I rode right to his shop. Two other "old guys that talk about motorcycles" were there and served as witnesses....i thanked him for being"right". When the other guy is right, own it and thank him. He will make you better.....but it still sucks to be wrong and have to admit it....LOL

I used to work with people who had Alzheimer's, dementia, autism, etc. And you are absolutely right about the feedback they give you.....
Now I work with cancer clients and that's not easy.....
Yes they're probably frightened and sick from the medicine. That would be difficult to know exactly the right words to give them to cheer them up. I am a firm believer in the expression that laughter is the best medicine. Except for me right now 😭 so I just hold the left side of my face and do it anyway. It only hurts when I laugh too much sooo... I'm careful.

Is the pain getting any better?

Who was the other actor who played Poirot? I tried Google and had no luck finding information. It says David Suchet was in all 13 seasons.🤷‍♂️
I think Peter Ustinov was the original Poirot, and more recently Kenneth Branagh in a remake of Murder on the Orient Express

Dear Lyn,

How's Lola? I hope he's been eating.

Natrah
He's fine thanks Natrah. He's really perked up recently, and enjoying a lot of dandies with ribwort and broadleaf plantains, and lots of clover. He still has some salad bags to bulk it out, when I can't find enough weeds in safe places.

It's weird. There's been very little pain at all. The hospital kept trying to get me to take oxycodone and then gave me paperwork on how not to get addicted 😁. I took only one tramadol when it first happened and only a few Tylenol since. The tramadol was for gp because it should have hurt. The Tylenol to help with swelling. I've been walking fine even though there's a small break in my knee cap. I'm just wearing a stabilizer to keep my leg straight so it will heal correctly. They keep telling me that smoking will interfere with my bones from healing . Yes smoking isn't good for you but so far I've slithered by once more. Maybe I'm just used to real pain with my spine and it doesn't affect me that much. I don't know.🙃 I'm thankful.

Came across a picture from a few months before the accident. Sometimes when I see a picture still with all my limbs. I get mixed feelings. I try to think of the good memories of what I was doing that day. I try not to dwell on my situation. 😁View attachment 390139

Well at least you seem to getting a reprieve from pain. That's a good thing.
