Did You Know
When Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone back in 1876, only six phones were sold in the first month.

In February 1878, the first telephone book was published in New Haven, Connecticut. The book was one page long and had fifty names in it.

Thomas Edison designed a helicopter that would work with gunpowder. It ended up blowing up and also blew up his factory.

Still snow on the ground. Maybe it will melt tomorrow. It is suppose to be 40.

Take care all. Have a good Sunday.

Old phone books are great for tracing where people were at a specific time.

There were no red colored M&Ms from 1976 to 1987
In 1976, the Food and drug Administration released a study that links red dye food coloring to cancer.
Though Mars did not use this dye they decided to pull the red M&M's from the market to avoid possible misunderstandings.
The red candy were reintroduced to the market ten years later

In 1982, the Mars candy bar company rejected the inclusion of M&M's in the new movie E.T.
Competitor Hershey, on the other hand, took a chance with their Reese's Pieces , which is similar to M&M's.
With the blockbuster success of the movie, its candy sales dramatically increased, perhaps by as much as 300%

Hi Jamie, Myself and Joyce.

Jamie it is awesome you found a scooter. And to get a reasonable price is great!

Joyce I am glad you saw your granddaughter, that is always nice....

Myself, I don't even have a phone book anymore. I can't read the small print easily anyway. I look on internet for phone numbers. But you are right about the phone books. It gives you a time frame.

I hope you all have a good day. Raining here and on the verge of freezing rain. Damp as ever...

Hugs, Karen...

Frigid temps here. Cold = pain. Ugh.

Amazingly, the snap dragons and pansies are still blooming! Everything else succumbed to the freeze.

I have not one, not two, but 3 pets that need to be seen by the vet. Micah has a swollen toe on a hind paw, Spike has his skin issues again and is drooling all over the place, and Lucky...um, how do I say this without being too gross...apparently had an abscessed 'scent' gland explode.

Mobile vet will be coming out on Thursday, will take Lucky in if need be in the meantime.

It is cool you have a mobile vet. I wish that they did here, and groomer. Jasmine needs a nail trim, she is terror in the vehicle. I hate taking her anywhere. But it needs to be done.

Cold and damp here and high pain levels here too.

I hope it warms up for the both of us.

Hugs, Karen...

Hope the scooter works out, Jamie.

Sorry for the sick pets, Pitmom. Too bad they all need the vet at once.

Having trouble here, I always have more depression in Nov & Dec. I guess partly 'cause it gets dark by 5:30 pm. Bleck. No friends around to hang with - when you don't work the professional friendships are lost. Not strong enough to hang with all my outdoorsy friends, so they've all quit calling. Too healthy to hang around with my sicker friends. Need some that're "just right", I guess.

Hello Tuesday
I'm in a downer mood this morning.
I've lost or mislaid an important document....have spent all night looking for it, with no success. Please send good vibes that will help locate.

Good morning Joyce,

I hope you find the document. I hate losing things.

Sending good vibes to you to find it.

Have a good day today.

Take care all...

Hugs, Karen...

A happy Wednesday, everyone

Success ! Wow, Karen your 'vibes' worked

Did You Know

Between 12%-15% of the population is left-handed

There are 50% more males that are left handed compared to females

There was a time in Japan where a wife being left handed was a ground for divorce

Wow, John is left handed. We have to eat on a certain side of each other or we are bumping elbows...

I am glad that you found your document. I hate losing things. My paperwork is a mess.

Jamie, Peace harmony and metal. Cool... I know you like heavy metal...

I hope you both have a good day/night...

Hugs, Karen...

Karen, My husband (also John) was left handed too...so know what you mean.
After 57 years together...we figured out how to handle it.

If the right side of the brain controls the left side of the body...does that mean that only left handed people are in their right minds?
Posted 11/15/2017 8:04 PM (GMT 0)
That was fun, pitmom...gave me a chuckle...

But on a serious note.....

The left side of the brain is responsible for controlling the right side of the body. It also performs tasks that have to do with logic, such as in science and mathematics.

On the other hand, the right hemisphere coordinates the left side of the body, and performs tasks that have do with creativity and the arts.

I have known people who were both handed. Ambidextreous? I don't know how to spell it.

My grandmother was left handed but at school they made her use her right hand. Eventually she was more right handed than left.

I liked your joke too Pitmom. It was funny...

Hugs, Karen...

i liked too pitmom. hi karen et al.
Posted 11/16/2017 3:37 AM (GMT 0)
I am ambidextrous for most things. Odd how life molds a person

Took 4 Alzheimers lap blankets to the Alz Unit about 20min away, last week. Along with some donated DVDs. The Recreation Dir. turned out to be someone I used to work with. Small world.

I cut the visit short, she offered coffee in her office. I was spiraling down for wanting to work again, we had a great team 12 years ago. Forgot just how fast it can it you. I am so GRATEFUL FOR MINDFULNESS.

Today I am finishing a crocheted lap blanket and I have 2 more to sew, for the local, Sterling Manor, 5min down the road. So small, hardly gets donations. I give them with wrapping paper so the items can be gifts for those with no family.

Well time for journaling then off to bed.

Just checked eBay, I had listed the 5 James Herriot books I have had since 1983. 3 hardcover 2 paperbacks. sold all for 28.00 with 24hrs.

Does my heart good to know that well written [actual] books are still highly sought after.

Peace and love all
