Today I Will . . .

[Gregory Matthews]

I thought it might be of interest for people to post here what they plan on doing today.  This may be ordinary.  It may be usual.  It may planned fun. It may be sad.  in short what will you be doing today?

 

[Gregory Matthews]

I will start it off:  Today I will receive an injection of Avastin in each of my eyes.  That will govern my activities for the nexr16 hours or so.

 

 

[BlessedMan]

today; I will struggle to go on, a few more steps, while the rest of the world carries on, as usual.

[Gregory Matthews]

Thank you for sharing.

Today I am getting my teeth cleaned, getting a haircut, and preparing for a winter storm over the next couple days.

[Gregory Matthews]

Today I am thankful that the doc, told me that I did not need to have the injections into my eyes  We will see again next month.

I live in a general area that has been subject to power shutoff by PG & E.   In fact, as I write this Huge numbers of people have had their power cut off. 

I am thankful that my home is located in a small area that does not have to have power turned off.

Today; I will complete the final stages of my photography business, online. Its a BIG accomplishment under the circumstances. I had to admit I cant do everything and to let professionals help me. They are working on the site for me now, and after a day or two we should have all the tweeks and bugs ironed out.

Also, today, I will pray for Gregory. (Psalms 84:11).

Today I helped my wife clean the house.  Cold with 6" of snow this morning here; so a good day to cocoon.  Right now I'm about to turn off the news because it's making me mad.

Being an electric utility professional for over 40 years, I feel bad for PG&E.  They settled lawsuits about POSSIBLY starting the Paradise fires for $8 billion.  Now you can be sure they will be sued for turning of power to prevent fires. Damned if they do and damned if they don't.

our two dogs killed a skunk on the lawn about 10 feet off the back patio on Sunday nite.  Yiiiiikkkkk!!!   Whole house filled with the smell, about 23:00.   They've had 3 baths with Skunk Off.  I can still smell it in some of the sofa cushions by the door.  Have had the air filters going 24 hours a day.  Aaahhhh.  country living.

We had a family of skunks living under our deck several years ago.  One of my neighbors shot the mom, who immediately ran under our deck, squirted skunk stink all over and then died, mixing the smell of death with skunk stink.  Even though we excavated under our deck and got the dead skunk out within the week, our house stunk for several months - especially after a good rain.

AAHHH, country living!

I heard that tomato juice is good for getting rid of skunk smell? My Mom used it on me once when I had a run in with a skunk, as a little boy. I don't remember if it worked, I just remember how great everyone thought I was for surviving that lol

[8thdaypriest]

My hairdresser, who has cousins in Arkansas, says the best product to erase skunk smell on dogs is Massengill feminine hygine douche.   That's funny!!  I'll have to try it next time.

I have heard that here is a formula that people use for that, but can't even begin to remember what it was!!
