@Yahooey : Good morning. Thank you. That video is so cute.

Praying that the changes that I made on my phone will make a difference.

I will get up in a few minutes. I will take my thyroid pill. Then use my cubii jr.2 for 30 minutes until I can make some coffee and eat something. Planning to use my cubii  again later this afternoon. My focus will be on many different things. Finishing my laundry, cleaning my middle room and planning what to cook for Sunday. I have already cooked my collards, will do a pan of corn bread, roast with potatoes, carrots and onions. 

We went to Walmart  on Wednesday and haven't been inside the store in months. We wanted some ice cream and purchased something different. We found a box of  Little Debbie Nutty Buddy ice cream bars  on a stick. They are very good . Plus we purchased some ice cream sandwiches. With this hot weather everyone needs a  nice cool treat.

Stay cool and enjoy your weekend.

cool today - so i will be busy prepping some stuff inthe kitchen

i have had no luck with growing basil the last 2 yrs

in 2021 i used up all my seeds i have saved - nada came up

i have grown and saved those seeds for at least a decade

no joke - i bought a packet of seeds in 2022 - must be in the hundreds

 

after sprinkling - nothing - i sprinkled again a few weeks later - nothing

i emptied the whole packet - called CS - got another variety of basil

 

i repeated the above and emptied the packet

so it must have been 600 seeds - bc 300 per packet

 

but this year - a friend gave my brother a basil plant last year- i saved the seeds

i planted a bunch bc i was skeered nothing would come up

 

in the past - i only need 6 plants and got lots and harvested  end of july / aug / sept

and made a lot of pesto - i then freeze them in portions

 

today i made pesto -it is the little things

I feel triumphant 😤

up again at 3:30 with "other: leg hurting  but went back to bedafter rubbing magnesium gel once again on legs

Then got back up again at 7...and stayed up!

 

I have nothing to show my doing things in my house other than showering and getting dressed!

 

Smell of corn starting to ripen in field close to me..is starting to bother me..so only went out to get my mail out of box next to street and back into my house!

 

I ordered a Anuschka round coin purse w/Garden Angel from HSN  for my daughter for either b-day in Sept...or as a Christmas gift was delivered in my mail today!Was on sale and saved$$ money on it  and she will love itSmiley Happy

 Hope you don't have any unknown phone calls today..i have had 2 already before 11am!By blocking them if they use same number to call back..my landline phone will only ring 1 time!

yes, sometimes its the little things that make u smile...like   your basil growing and producing 🤗

Last week i ordered a safety bar  for seniors &handicapped persons to put into bath /shower...no instructions came with it...i put in on...and each time after a few minutes..it would "fall off the wall"!Smiley Sad

 

Well,i went back to Amazon and checked instructons   again plus watched the video!

I decided to follow video instructions,

Next, i wet the 2 suction cups and dried them a bit...and :"Slammed": that bar onto wall in shower and pressed the 2 lock thingings down!!

 

It hasn't fallen off at all.as..i ment business...Smiley LOL

Yep, i held onto that bar while in shower this morning and all was good!Smiley Very Happy

 

Enjoy making your pesos    oops pesto today with your basilSmiley Very Happy

@Yahooey : Yea!!! I have never tried pesto. If I may ask, what are your ingredients for the pesto?

I am eating a tomato sandwich for lunch. I had 7 more tomatoes and decided to wash, core and put in a freezer bag to freeze and use later to make sauce to use in soup.

@cowboy sam : So sorry that your legs are bothering you. Praying for quick relief. I hate whenever I can't sleep at night.

The coin purse for your daughter sounds beautiful.

Get some rest and stay cool.

yay on getting lots of tomatoes -

i'm waiting for mine to ripen for a tomato sandiwch - it is blushing

 

pesto - basil - olive oil - pignoli nuts (i use walnuts instead) - garlic - parm cheese and salt/pepper - i use a food processor to chop/mix

 

i add sun dried tomatoes to mine 

funny - i dont really eat raw basil - i dont sprinkle it on pasta but i like pesto

@cowboy sam 

 

is it a leg cramp where everything seizes up?leg muscles budges and it wont go back to normal? - i rub trying to release the hold

 

i have gotten those at night'once in a while

 

i read that you have to hydrate and may be due to over stress on those muscles

 

who know.... sometime bc of the cramps - it is sore the next day
