Woke up to a migraine, took meds and went back to sleep. Now feeling OK. As I type we are seeing some heavy, much needed raindrops. It’s been a long, sunny winter without the much needed rain. This will not end the drought, but we will take whatever “Mother Nature” gives us. The temp is in the mid 60s. Rain is in the forecast for tomorrow as well. Good day for homemade soups.

I hope to visit the Farmer’s Market. I was not able to see hubby yesterday, but called in and was told our favorite aide was making his rounds. Hopefully, he will give hubby some much needed in between meal snacks. I still miss the RN who used to walk me to the car and return to work after I drove off. Another aide has quit along with a person at the reception desk.

As of two days ago, no glasses found. There is a possibility that the glasses were tossed. I doubt it. I think someone took them for the frames. Now I will need to make hubby an appointment for new frames.

By the way, did you ever try Chewy for the cat and dog food? HSN included a coupon in several of the packages. Since I do not have a dog or cat at the moment, I gave them to friends who may be able to use them.

I didn’t see hubby today. Instead, like you, had a migraine to beat the band. Still have the chills and slept most of the afternoon. I was able to put a nice dent in the kitchen. Found more for donations and an empty space for all the carry on I use for bringing hot and cold food to hubs. The cabinet above the microwave is perfect for all these essentials.

We are expecting some rain in a few hours that will last until late afternoon tomorrow. It also will mean no headaches for a few hours which is welcome news. The sap in those trees will do it every time.

Take care Sheba. Wonderful that those kitties returned for food and fuel. Wonder if they will become more friendly knowing you are watching out for them.. 50 degrees today for you. Now that’s a heat wave after suffering over a month with the below zeroes. Have a great evening. Me, I’m returning to the bed. The soup helped quite a bit. Good night. Pleasant dreams.

Shewbashew, I would go along with what Bobbie Ray Carter mentioned. An allergy to a cosmetic. She may have had a procedure that she had used prior without a problem. However, sometimes a manufacturer will change an ingredient and thus the result could be devastating. I am a person who suffers from food allergies. Consequently I need to read all labels. Something that I could eat suddenly causes my face to swell or to feel nauseous or both. The swelling to go down could take anywhere from 24 hours to a week. This is an item I could always eat without a problem. Why read the labels when you know it causes no harm. This is annoying not only to me, but the public as well who thinks my husband is abusing me. I cannot tell you how many times a policeman came to my door and arrested my husband without knowing all the facts. Unfortunately, for me, my food allergy also carries over to things I wear, soaps I use, shampoos and conditioners, cosmetics, and, yes, even towels and linens, all bedding as well. So stop bashing people when you do not know the cause. One change in an ingredient could be the cause of all evil.

Love the birds. We are starting to see some of the birds from the North. A few love climbing on our lanai screens to find bugs. They keep that up I won’t have to use the hose in a few weeks.

Hubby enjoyed Wonton Soup. It was loaded and he had no trouble downing all the goodies. I ordered a shrimp dish with veggies. I also gave some to hubby and will look at other items when I do some food shopping. He was able to eat everything. I did not cut the shrimp or the veggies into tiny pieces. He is so tired of food being pureed. He is having problems with his fingers in that he cannot use them. Consequently the muscles are starting to go. He is on iron pills, but I feel nutrients is the way to go on this one. I noticed a huge difference when I gave him all the meatballs from the grinder. Within twenty-four hours he was able to raise his hand and reach for an item on his movable tray. This is the first time in weeks. I think I will visit the Farmer’s Market tomorrow and get an idea of some food items that may help to get those vitamin levels where they should be. I am seeing more and more people saying that over-the counter vitamins are a health risk. This is getting scary. Oh yes, our pills for sinus problems just got testier as well. It may be causing dementia. Doctors should give a prescription. I’m smiling. How many prescriptions have side effects???? Enough said.

Did the kitties show for dinner tonight. I wonder if they did, if they asked for seconds……

Hi. A cool day in Florida with temps in the mid 60s. Temp will go down to somewhere in the 40s tonight. It was way too cold visiting hubby yesterday, but colder outside. Temp was in the high 40s when I left.

I am on my way to CVS for meds and then on to Chinese take out. Good day for soup for hubby and some shrimp for me. Hubby is doing OK. I managed to speak with someone yesterday on his prescription eyeglasses. All I can say is the hunt is on. I still feel that one of the aides took them, but cannot prove it. Then again, hubby has a habit of leaving them on his tray or in a shirt pocket and forgets about it. This part has been going on for years. He has a new roommate. This one loves TV and hubby is happy. Was able to watch “Two and a Half Men.” He was all smiles. I worked on a jigsaw in Kindle. And, yes, the room was icy. Even his roommate remarked. He may go home if it keeps up.

Guess spring is around the corner. See the planting season has begun. I have my eye on the multi colored butterfly plant. Checked some of the places here with no luck. Then again, it may be too early to plant. Well, now I am on my way. I hope all the kitties start showing up for food.
Wish they would like being indoors during the cold days. Have a great day. Hope your SIL is feeling OK following the treatment.
