Morning folks!

 

Good Morning Porch Pals & Sue! OK, three was too many - sore arms and still joints all around this morning. I'll get over it. Hook 'Em!

 

This was the Bain of my existence for a day or so, sucks getting old. 100 yr old house cinder block wall trying to make it work. Existing door had no insulation around the opening. 32" door 36" ro about as square as trapezoid. Door is square just the angle of the pic.

 

afternoon boys

 

sixtys/wannabes/these old houses. (Too late in the day for java.) We've been getting the yard cleaned up after Ophelia plus prepping for winter. Two days of splitting wood and cutting up stuff for the burn pile, including burning it. My nostrils are still filled with smoke smell in spite of two showers. Plus I seem to have picked up some kind of bug. Not the C word, unless the symptoms have changed dramatically. Hmm, maybe I should check.

 

"C"hange of weather bug!

 

Hope it's not that "C" word and you feel better soon.

 

Good morning all

 

Morning porch puppies , thought for the day, “I hate technology “, just my 2 cents.

 

Good morning Porch Pals and Sue! Pistons show, leaving in a minute.

 

I recently started a new med, prescribed.
About the same time my joints hurt more, and fatigue was more predominant.
So, I looked it up, and sure enough, it is listed in the side effects.
Hey, Doc. What's Next?

 

Cholesterol medication?

 

Yes

 

Start eating almonds... My cholesterol was high and I started to eat a trail mix with almonds in it. No problems with cholesterol since '06.

Your mileage may vary.

 

Already been doing that for years. Thanks.

 

My aunt had such joint trouble from cholesterol meds that she couldn't hold her car keys. Some folks are affected more than others. Talk to your doctor, they might change dosage plus there are alternative medications. (In my aunt's case the dosage was ridiculously high; they lowered it and she was good to go.) My personal opinion is that some folks in the medical community chase cholesterol numbers a bit too hard.

Oh yeah sixtys/wannabes/tech troglodytes. Our internet wasn't working yesterday morning when I got up; "sigh, cable is out again" I thought, but I looked at the cable modem and it looked happy. So I performed an effective "three fingered salute" (from the alt-ctrl-delete days of early Windoze) and powered the whole schmeer down and back up again. Started working normally. Go figure.

 

Good Morning Everyone! Have a great day! 80 today here end of week down to normal 50's, great day to be outside.

 

happy Sunday all

Have a good afternoon

 

In my case my doc told me to take the highest dose you can tolerate joint pain wise and then we will back off from there. I see my cardiologist annually.

 

LOL. Yesterday, precisely at 2:30 CDT, for the Horns kickoff - no internet, which means no streaming. Rebooted modem, and not much was happening, set the laptop to "troubleshooting" and it "found the problem - contact administrator". What's that mean, I am him! But net and streaming all came back right away!
