    Great day we got our electricity back after the hurricane and everything is good. Just a reality check The news media is full of hurricane Irma and the death toll is rising but even this storm can not keep up to the people being killed in Chicago and is so common no one seem to care

    Good afternoon friends, I have been struggling to wake up all morning, it's 3:30pm now, I took an extra one of my BP pills to bring the pressure down which it did to 116/64, but I woke up completely dazed and out of it, I will see how I get on over the next few days. My houghts are with all who are affected by these terrible hurricanes and tornadoes.

    Have as a good a Sunday as possible...

    Good morning from a hotel in San Luis Obispo. Yesterday was grueling with the move in. This is a hilly campus and it's hotter here than where my daughter lives but not as hot as Fresno.

    Dorms don't have AC....it was 12 hrs of heat and hills and walking.

    Daughter went to get grandson from dorm and then were going out to a nice breakfast across from the hotel with him and that's the last I'll see him til Thanksgiving.

    Hotel has a complimentary breakfast but we're going to a nicer one ...I really don't care as breakfast isn't my favorite meal to eat out.

    Yesterday we had a quick lunch on campus...it was my first chick fil a ever and the chicken was pretty tasty. They have a food court and that's where my grandson will usually be eating his meals. His meals have been prepaid for the semester. They do have a mini fridge in their dorm room but aren't allowed any microwaves or coffee makers etc.

    There is a common area on each floor that has all that.

    What he doesn't use rolls over I think....but prices are normal to high so I'm sure he won't have any left...also quite a few Starbucks on campus.

    For dinner we went to the cute downtown and ate at a popular college crowd place...line was out the door but it went fast....I just had a fish taco.

    Slept like a baby last night ....

    Have a great day!

    Have reservations here for breakfast at 8:30 am, so soon...I'm starving!

    Good morning on yet another Monday morning, there seem to be more than one a week [​IMG] .....it's a bright sunny one here, but rain is forecast later. I slept a bit better last night but still woke up feeling dazed and exhausted, my BP is high again this morning, so not sure if the increased dose is helping [​IMG]
    I gave up drinking beer a week ago and that hasn't helped either, so not sure what to try next.... [​IMG] I am seeing the doctor on Friday so will ask yet again, but there doesn't seem to be a solution...

    I am going to have lunch with Caroline later and will hopefully walk to the restaurant, it's less than a couple of miles, but if it's raining I will drive.

    Enjoy your Monday ...... [​IMG]

    Good morning ,everyone.

    We are expected to get some wind and rain from Irma with a possibility of a few tornadoes. I'm a bit surprised at that since it is so far west of us. I don't worry about the wind and rain but I'm afraid of tornadoes.

    Terry, maybe the doc needs to change you BP med. We tried several before we found one that works without side effects.

    It looks like @Terry Page got a new job. :D

    Good evening friends, I had a good time with Caroline, we had fish and chips (fries) for lunch and chatted about life the weather, philosophy and a bit of psychology [​IMG] ...... I am childminding for Caroline on Wednesday evening and taking her to the cinema on Thursday evening to see "The Midwife" a French film starring Catherine Deneuve which looks to be good, so we will be seeing a lot of each other before I leave for Russia next Monday:


    Cathy and her partner Mike are having a great vacation in Germany, visiting various places of historical interest connected with WWII and the Third Reich. I have dozens of photos but will only post a few because most of them are crumbling POW camps and Nuremburg museums. Mike is pretty obsessed with anything connected to the war [​IMG]


    They visited a lake and a secret waterfall where Hitler's second wife Eva Braun (though only for 40 hours) bathed with her sister and the lake where she did yoga exercises. The path to the waterfall has all but disappeared, and was treacherous with warning signs of danger to life along it, but they managed it.


    .....part of the path

    A few mushrooms en route

    Great pictures, @Terry Page . I especially like the one with the mushrooms. Not that your DD and her SO are not attractive but I wonder what that artist we just saw could have done with the mushrooms.

    A very good morning to you all, it's a sunny cool morning at 10c here, they are just closing off the road outside my house, not sure what they are going to do, but a new tarmac surface was only put down a month ago [​IMG]

    I am feeling drugged as usual, but I did sleep a bit better so not so tired.......I don't have any plans for the day, so will see what happens.....

    Have a good Tuesday
