  1. Also, schools have trends. I went to two different high schools. At the first one, everybody had a locker and all the rooms were relatively close, and everybody carries their book or two in their arms. In the second high school, everybody used backpacks. Lockers were on the first floor of a three story building, and all of the classes were on the third floor. I didn't own a backpack before this school because they weren't a trend, but I borrowed a backpack from my brother once I realized that was what was done. Trends. The life blood of high school. 🙂
  2. If it's BCBS Federal, they have Telehealth services by Teladoc. You can find them through the fepblue.org website. Or they list the Teladoc number, 1-855-636-1579. It looks like Teladoc includes mental health as well as regular health. (I mean they have this in addition to regular in person stuff.)
  3. I like to use cooked ground sausage along with a bag of Cole slaw (no dressing) or just shredded cabbage, throw in some garlic or ginger or soy sauce, and roll up in spring rolls to make a sort of lumpia. Brush with oil and bake. Delightful!
  4. Gently, it sounds like these phone calls are not about communication for her, but a game she can win. You don't have to play her game.
  5. I'm not a doctor but if it were me, I would try diaper rash cream on that (zinc oxide based) and see if it helps.
  6. Maybe in the first few years of our marriage, we did, but we're at 25 years now, and no, we don't. If one of us is being weird and stupid, the other one backs off. If it's not important, it's not important. Plus, I think very highly of my dh, and he thinks very highly of me, and if something is bothering one of us, the other one respects that even if we don't get it. ((big hugs))
  7. Ground beef with rice and peas mixed in. Use beef broth to make the rice. A little minced onion would be nice in there, too.
  8. Milkshakes? My dad is on a similar diet right now, and they asked permission to give him milkshakes (scoop of ice cream, some other nutritional things thrown in). I said Yes!
  9. Bit of tangentially related trivia: It is my understanding that you can get leprosy from armadillos. Don't eat armadillo!
  10. We were at the bank (credit union) every Saturday for a couple months after my mom died. It's a giant pain.
  11. If you end up not being able to take Florastor (the pills are huge), you might look at Olly Extra Strength Probiotic gummies. It contains bacillus coagulans and bacillus subtilis. A close relative took it while on antibiotics for a couple of months. Worked great!
  12. We're not attending a Super Bowl bowl party, but I love reading food threads, especially when I'm hungry. Deviled eggs sound delightful!
  13. The cardinal thread inspired me. What birds are you seeing out your windows lately? I have been seeing egrets (cattle egret I think) just walking around the lawn, and brown pelicans in the water (bay). Plus the usual seagulls. I do miss the forest song birds of my childhood in the midwest. But the Gulf Coast has its charms.
