Good Evening!  Hope the storms won't be too bad, Fressa.  My DD said they had quite a bad thunderstorm last night.  As predicted, we our weather was warm today -- high in the upper 70's.  It was a bit cloudy, but still nice.  So glad you like your DB coat.  

I just saw that Martha Stewart is coming back to the Q.  I never purchased her clothes, but I was tempted and did find some nice placemats and other household stuff.  

Funny story about your neighbors and the mail, Barbara.  I thought garbage disposals were part of the code for new homes -- maybe that does not apply to your area.  Hope your call with the rheumatologist goes well as does your injection on Tuesday.  I am wondering that about the elastic in pants as well.  Seems like several pairs of pants that used to fit well are falling down from my waist.  I really don't think my waist is any smaller.

Glad you are finding some clothes that work for you, Bernie.  I am sure it feels great to get rid of ladders, etc., that you never use.  Good luck with your tool shopping.

I am happy to report that I already received the results of my ultrasound test from yesterday.  My interpretation was that I don't have any big problem (three small cysts in my ovaries, but nothing about an issue).  Fortunately, my opinion was confirmed by DH's DD who said no problem due to size and other information.  Whew!  

The neighborhood ladies lunch was nice, and I enjoyed talking to my neighbor who drove me to my cataract surgery.

Sleep well everyone!

I am getting my infusion, so before my vision gets blurry, I will post.

it is still cool but tolerable. The weekend should be very nice.

Bernie, I keep forgetting to look at Penney's. There. Is a store here and when I regain my mobility I will have to go take a look see. I think putting things on the curb is a great idea

Linda, I think you are correct about the elastic. I have a couple of pairs of button and zip jeans, I will have to check

inwas very happy that your tests showed nothing of interest.

Have a good day everyone.

Good Afternoon/Evening!  Hope you recover from the side effects of your infusion quickly, Barbara.   Also hope the non-elastic pants work for you, and you are able to find something at Penney's.

I am having trouble with my feet today.  Actually, it started yesterday, but is worse today.  Seems like it  is always something.  Not really sure if it is plantar fasclitis or something else, but it sure is making walking difficult.  I used the treadmill at the gym this morning, which was undoubtedly a dumb idea.  And, when I went to the hospice office this afternoon, it was difficult to walk from my car to the building and back.  So, now I am resting my feet and plan to take some ibuprofen in a little while.  

There was a weekly meeting at the office, and they like someone to be there to answer the phones.  I sat there for more than two hours with no phone calls, no one delivering supplies or coming to visit in person.  And, there was very little work to do.  Fortunately, I had my Kindle with me.  

It is windy and cool here, and they are still predicting cooler, windy, and rainy weather tomorrow.  There may even be some snow in the mountains.

Hope everyone sleeps well.

@LindaLatte  I'm glad that your ultrasound came back with relatively good news.

Barbara @sydsgma1  I've been shopping JCP since I discovered that they sold tall ladies clothing when I was 18 years old.  They sold in catalogue (loved that time) and then online.  They don't carry talls for ladies in store so me and JCP have had an 'online' relationship for over 40 years.  

I recently ordered these pants

I laundered the clothes and I ironed the pants to have a proper crease down the front and back.  I'm using the following example of men's slacks to explain what I did.

Good Afternoon!  It is warmer here today (highs in the low 60's rather than the low 50's we had yesterday).  And, today is sunny and not nearly as windy.  At least we got some rain yesterday (not a lot, but....)   It should be warmer still tomorrow, but cooler later in the week. 

As usual, I like the things you ordered from JCP, Bernie.  I am really trying to avoid ordering any more clothing or shoes, and have been moderately successful.  But, I did order the Little Giant stepladder that I have been considering for ages.  It looks much sturdier than the stepstool that I have.  I'm only getting shorter and shorter, so this is needed.

My hospice patient was in much better shape yesterday than the previous Friday.  According to the hospice nurse, the facility thinks that she likes having the socialization she has in the memory unit rather than when she mostly stayed in her assisted living room.  A couple brought a very large dog (perhaps a bullmastiff) that weighed 200 pounds to the unit, and she was interested.  She did not pet him, but she enjoyed seeing him as did I.

After the visit, I went to the hospice office where they were having staff appreciation day -- including pizza, vegetables, cookies, etc.  They invited me to have some pizza, etc., and I was happy to have some.

Then, I went to my follow-up eye doctor appointment, and he said that my eye looked good.  I go back on the 24th for what I assume will be my last post-cataract operation visit (unless something is wrong).  I am happy that I only need to use one eye drop three times a day now.  And, that will be reduced to two times a day next Thursday.

I went back into the office after the eye doctor visit, and it was extremely quiet.

Have a nice evening everyone.
