    Sounds like a lot of work but I realize it's got to be so rewarding to be able to do that kind of thing Maki. I admire that, and have learned to do a lot of things just around home, and it's true that necessity is the mother of invention ;) One thing I've learned is that if I, for example, put...

    I relate to much of what you said. I love to help people but yet I'm so hesitant to get "thick" with anyone anymore. I don't know what it's like living out there, but I would bet many feel the same way. As they say in all the British show I love to watch, "they keep themselves to themselves"...

    Reminds me of Phenomenon, a movie where the guy knows it's rabbits, so he builds a fence and still, the little bandit (s) continue to munch. He finally realizes the rabbit was already in the garden when he put the fence up! :geek:

    I went 7 days in a row to start as I wanted to be sure I was going to stick with it. I got hooked, but now I take weekends off, or at least a day. Working upper or lower body every other day. Yes, same boat on the credit score. You are way up there aren't you. Is Redding closest larger...

    The inner tubes sound like a blast @abnorm!! When the weathers hot I either need water, or indoors with a/c ;)

    That's the thing about the coast, we get a lot of sunny days but the wind usually keeps temps too cool for my tastes. I love the area you're in now @abnorm. Grew up camping on the Rogue, and the Umpqua, my two fave Summer-time destinations. Especially loved a campground called Farewell Bend...

    Do any of you have experience in dealing with waking up at night with air/gas buildup in the lower stomach.

    I forgot to mention ACV (apple cider vinegar). Upset stomach, bloated feeling, anything to do with digestion issues on the spot, drink a tbsp. in water. No, this medicine doesn't taste good but it will do the trick for me.

    have a doc appt this a.m. but I want to get back here and reply to your reply travelaround :) It was nice to see this a.m. and I missed being around here even though I can't get "out there" myself. I think your little niche in Happy Camp sounds wonderful! I'm very much a loner and like my...

    I've been with android too long evidently because the iphones my friends have just confuse me and I am so easily confused in these "senior" years ;)

    I'm still in my apartment dreaming, but not standing still. I go to the gym almost every day, usually take weekends off except for bike-rides or just walks. Haven't been around because I felt I was just hoping for something that couldn't be for me, but decided to get ready should the...

    Do any of you have experience in dealing with waking up at night with air/gas buildup in the lower stomach.

    The best things I've found for things to do with gut, is to get it to be PH Balanced. I also eat what I believe to be a miracle-diet for me which is a ketogenic diet. It's basically low-carb, high-fats, good proteins, no processed foods, grains or sugars. Sounds awful to many, but it's done...

    RIP Gabby Petito

    Those were my first thoughts too @Calaveragrande.  But as we are getting news updates, especially the body-cam footage, I've been all over the place in my thinking.  Your last, 2 sentences are the exact same as I believe.  The last I heard, the coroner's autopsy should be done tomorrow.  That...

    yes, safety in numbers for me too Rose. I gotta tell you it was music to my ears when I hobbled over to Doug and Paulette's and said "Doug, I need help", and heard him coming out. He got me to sit down, and checked me for stroke symptoms right away, then called for help. There were 3...

    I will Gypsy. I keep thinking of poor Doug trying to get in my tent after he got me settled into one of his outdoor chairs to wait for ambulance. My little dog was yapping her head off at him, wouldn't let him in to get her. I'm kind of giggling now, but he went through a lot to help me ;(...

    Just wanted to give an update and so appreciate so many replies, and well-wishes :) My left arm is the only part of me that hasn't lost the numbness, from upper arm area/shoulder, down to wrist, palm and one finger.  I'm exercising just by doing housework type things, as when I keep it moving...

    Thank you all, I just got off the phone with Radiology when I saw your replies.  The "doctor" who was heading up the the ER ordered an MRI for me this week.  So a nurse called me and asked me some questions like "have you had any surgeries".  Which, I was asked the same by him directly (THE...

    had to call ambulance for the first time in my life, up camping. Doug & Paulette helped me as i had the whole, left side of my body go numb. I was so scared. So EMTs came first, they were nearby (36 miles up river is where we were in dispersed camping) then ambulance. I had 2 CAT scans an EKG...
