Pitting cherries for jam
What a pain
And my fingers are red

I have a six hole pitter. I still have to check each cherry to make sure the pit clears. I'm a bit OCD about it. I've found an easier way is to freeze the cherries then defrost. They can be pitted in the bag by squishing them.

 

[Lilianna23]

Place the cherry stem-side up on the opening of a bottle. Push the pit out with a chopstick or reusable straw.

I'll try this! Thanks!

Pop the cherry in your mouth and spit out the seed. Go to the store and buy a pie...much easier.

I usually end up eating at least half the cherries I buy before I can make anything with them.

Goodnight all. Long day.

Just work. I had a consult with an oral surgeon after work. I had no root canal tooth that broke. I just saw. I left it in there, and when I went for my cleaning last week, my dentist was like, “that’s still there? Get rid of that thing!”

Set a date for August 7 with my two big project deadline dates will be passed by then.

Watched a couple episodes of Jeopardy and made the missus some salad for dinner. (of course you know that I offered to toss her salad… But was rebuffed.)

She got some of her bloodwork results in today and she definitely does have some type of Lyme. The rest of the blood panel should be done tomorrow. They put her on doxycycline.

We’ve been sleeping separately, because of her bad arm.

I'm so sorry she has Lyme. Please tell her to take ALL of the antibiotic once started. Not taking it all can open the door to bacteria mutating into antibiotic resistant organisms.

Storms woke me up...wind,rain, thunder and lightning...

I wish I could take credit for it, but I basically poach them to round out weekly themes I throw out. One of these days I’ll start posting my own shots as I fancy myself an amateur photog…

Getting ready for the big wedding this weekend. Extended family on the wife’s side so plenty of family drama to wade through with them. . I”m going to sit quietly, kiss the pretty bride, shake the handsome grooms hand, drink all the free booze and dance and embarrass as many of the uptights as I can…and probably myself. Will report back on Monday or Tuesday.

St Mary’s lake, GNP, MZ…

Hello

Hi, Quim! How are you doing?

 

[Lilianna23]

She was tested on. Monday but it was a full panel, like 10-12 seperate tests.

I have had a chronic pain thing going on all spring. (I mean my back always hurts, but this has been progressively worse).

Now I am having the same pain she is at night. Hops, IT bands, si joints. I’m gonna go to the doc in the am.

If you're having the same symptoms, you need tone tested as well.

Mrs wonderer has Lyme myalgia, which is severe muscular skeletal pain from Lyme.

Weirdly she is fine during the day, but the minute she stops moving her arm and back and hips and legs hurt.

So continued doxycycline. It’s a powerful medication.


Thanks for the tips!

I’m so sorry for your Mrs. Pain at night depriving her of sleep is miserable. She has my empathy. And so do you. Sleeping in the day is not normal but until the meds kick the Lyme, long naps may be her only relief. And as her care giver, take care of your health. Sending you both my best.

We don't get those kind of storms often. When we do, I used to wake up the hubs, rearrange the couch in the living room, and watch the storm. ️🌩

I finally caught up! It's midnight-thirty on Saturday morning. My trainer wrecked me on Tuesday but was nicer today! Or, maybe I'm becoming used to it!

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend! ️

Of course you're coming with me! G seem the type to need a double team approach! Do you wanna be the good nurse, the bad nurse, or take turns?

Oh take turns for sure...hahaha

Yep

I am awake as old dog needed to go out. Also I have been paying the price for indulging in fatty delicious food. At my favorite restaurant celebrating my GF’s birthday, I had fried Whitefish and their homemade fries Then later we had mocha ice cream- lots of it. I paid the price with indigestion last night. So I am taking it easy on fatty food today.

So good morning all. Maybe it’s oatmeal this morning?
