Good to hear your feeling better....!
Get any rain yet, to help that garden flourish before snow hits?
Hanging in there. . . One Day at a Time (high temp today 46)
Not bad, could be worse.
Not the last few days, been working my ass off....but if I wasn't working my ass off, I'd have problems.
You find something to share, in the sleep help dept?
I have been making banana tea, it's been helping me.
Take a whole organic banana wash it cut off the ends then cut in half long ways then put it in a pan with about 3 cups water then boil it for about 8 minutes (leave the skin on) strain and drink
it give you a surplus of natural magnesium which helps you sleep
The countdown is on. Phillip goes in tomorrow for cardiac catheterization to see if he needs stents, or a bypass.
Interesting. I usually eat about four bananas a day, perhaps something in the peel, besides magnesium?
Good luck, Sarah.
Hope Lannie doesn't read that.....Two kittens, one snuggled against each cheek.
We are both hoping stents are all he needs. The bypass scenario scares us.
I assume it would.
I will keep my fingers crossed Sarah
They say there close to 10 x thee magnesium in the peel
Never knew that, good information...!
No wonder the garden like banana peels so much.....
Yeah, she'll get jealous that the kittens are snuggling me instead of her.Hope Lannie doesn't read that.....
Damn right, the more the merrier....!
That's where all mine went till I started drinking the tea, all of them that I eat the peel goes in my compost pileNo wonder the garden like banana peels so much.....
You have rain again today?Yeah, she'll get jealous that the kittens are snuggling me instead of her.
I noticed the w-guessers noted kinda shitty weather in your general area.
I may try to eat a peel off a really ripe banana (never tried it)....I know they're really bitter on bananas not ripe.
Cloudy all day, a bit misty at times, but no real rain.
I wouldn't because the peel has way too much fiber to digest easily. And eating just the banana itself is only about 8% of RDA for magnesium (while spinach is 28%). I have heard that using the peel in the tea gives a lot more than that, but if you're going to do this, make damn sure the banana is guaranteed organic (NOT the grocery store's claim) because boiling the peel will put any chemicals that were sprayed on the banana directly into your tea.
Well that ain't bad I guess. Hopefully you'll have some dog days of autumn coming your way.
We could use a few more good days. I am way behind in my "good weather chores."
I'm a fiber junkie....I'm aware of them damn chemicals too.....
You'll have a few, I'd bet my life on it. Hopefully, more than a couple days, perhaps a couple weeks.
Oh please, Great Lord Dale of Scotts, make it so.
(It is getting late and my sense of humor is more warped the later it gets...)
Well be sure to tell me how that turns out, I think the delivery system of the warm tea would let your body absorb the magnesium better.
Well fortunately Dale you can use your tree ripe organic bananas before longI'm a fiber junkie....I'm aware of them damn chemicals too.....
Was only kidding about eating the peels....their not too good, regardless of the age....
Looks like I get to turn the lights out.
Nitey night Dale and Jimi. Hope you have a good day tomorrow.

As well as the rest of the public.The FDA always have their best priorities in order.....
100 or so humans dying vs pets dying.
With me it would depend on which humans dying.
If it was only politicians dying I would choose pets too
Positive thoughts sent to you and him.
I'm sending positive thoughts your way! Hubs had both procedures.
I was about two minutes away from deciding no one was coming on here tonight....
Anyhooooo... overcast, very windy, and rained like hell this morning. Sky was totally clear by 2 PM, wind died, and it got all the way up to 63.5 degrees. Now it is cloudy, windy, and cold, with a feeling of mistiness that implies more rain likely.

Phillip had no blockages around his heart, so no stents or bypass. Considering the times he has had problems, we're thinking it !at have been anxiety/panic attacks. He has been having problems only since he got a new supervisor that hates and despises him for the crime of being a Caucasian male. This supervisor is an Hispanic female.
Either he can try to find ways of coping with the stress, or he may go years without a job while he tries to find employment elsewhere.

Get anything accomplished today, in the shitty 1/2 day of poor weather?
Nothing of any significant merit... routine BS. Cows seem intent on destroying my wooden gates. They have been fine for the last 10 years, but now they are being battered. Wish I could afford steel.
