Knee surgery was Tuesday. Reminds me of an old jukebox song "It keeps right on a-hurtin'" and yeah, every minute if the day....lol

Heads up to everyone. I see lots of old age (me) ailments (me) I take a CBD oil sometimes, non THC stuff. Legal every state. Cuts pain, anxiety...

Now. Tucker Carlson took advice "leave Fox, start your own business" He is.

Called "sage elxir" scroll 2/3 down the page there is a free trial link. I also got the cream. Think it was just pay shipping.

This is good information. I've been using CBD oil, Hemp oil & similar products for some time now and coupled with an acetaminophen now and then are as or more effective as the nsaids that really do terrible things to your innards and I can't take any more.

Unfortunately CBD could interfere with the way one of my meds works....

I tried that once for pain. It didn't do anything. The bottle just sat around several months so I tossed it.

CBD or Hemp oil is an anti inflammatory which acetaminophen (Tylenol) is not. And since I can't take nsaids (aspirin, ibuprophen, naproxen et al) and need both an anti inflammatory and help with pain, taking the Hemp oil with acetaminophen seems to get it done.

I trust the knee surgery went well, but yes, it is one of the most painful surgeries to rehab from. Those who have gone through it say it's worth it though.

I got my second vaccine shot Sunday, very little in the way of side effects, thankfully. I'm heading up to GA tomorrow to see the little one.

The Islanders beat the Penguins to get to the second round of the playoffs for the third year in a row. They haven't won a playoff series for 3 years in a row since the 80s.

I'm wrapping presents for the little one and getting some things packed for the long weekend. Just thought I'd pop in and say hi, I don't know how much I'll be on USMB for the next few days.

 

[petro]

Haven't peeked in here for sometime...
Spent last weekend on an awesome long weekend in Florida with wife's son and girlfriend, and my daughter with her boyfriend...
A couple sunsets from the Gulf...
Went on a dolphin tour and saw many of them and at beach had baby stingrays at our feet.
I love the intercoastal and was wishing my boat was with me the whole trip.

Sitting back in MN now freezing on a cold rainy day with a high in the forties...

Have a good trip Montro. I assume it's the little one's birthday?

Wow that's cold for late May even in Minnesota, yes? But I guess it's been snowing in Montana this past week. My neice & her hubby are vacationing in Florida this week and posting photos to Facebook every day just to make us all green with envy. We could hit 90 here on Saturday, but then it cools off into the mid 80's and 70's for the next week. Really unusually cool for us this time of year as we go into what is normally some of the hottest days of summer. I'm not complaining though.

It rained every day this past week. On top of ongoing lockdown, rather depressing.

Even sitting on a bench, doorstep, window sill, anything we could find, was out of bounds, because of getting drenched.

All dressed up and nowhere to go, but I’ll give it another try soon, outside my favourite French cafe. And hope for the best, before socialising in the supermarket.

It seems like Memorial weekend is always our last cold snap of the year. Funny thing, it was 85 and miserable humid two days ago. Nothing like a forty degree drop in 24 hours.

Trying to imagine 85 in Celsius.

Now that sounds cold to me.
Up near Canadian border a Canadian radio station does metric.
I never know what temp it is without looking it up.
Funny that America still uses imperial.

Three days before the pain starts to abate. Should start to feel better by tomorrow. Take your pain meds - not too many. Feel better.

IT'S FUCKING SNOWING IN TORONTO!!! I can't believe I'm typing this. A week ago today it was 98 degrees. We planted our seedlings last week and the leaves got BURNED by the sun. Now we're worried the frost will kill them!!!

THIS IS INSANE!

Nice day today...playing with our oversized puppy out back

Charlie is a Pitsky, Pitbull Husky mix. Great disposition, lots of energy, highly intelligent and loves boats, cars, camping and all other people and dogs.
He is always smiling.

We Americans can be unreasonably stubborn now and then. There have been multiple attempts to get us to switch to the more uniformly universal metric system both for weights and measurements and celsius instead of fahrenheit, but too many refused to make the effort. We we so trained and infused with our system, it was uncomfortable trying to learn different one. Sort of like having to translate another language into your native language in order to understand what is being said. And most don't make the effort to become fluent in the second language.

I don't know why they don't train children in the metric system AND the imperial system simultaneously so the next generation would be comfortable with such transition.

For the most part as far as tools, I am required to own both as many vehicles have a mix of standard and metric parts. I grew up when they were actively teaching both in school during the seventies.
Construction materials actually work better in standard as wall and joist systems will work with a 8, 12, 16, 19.25, and 24 inch layouts working perfectly with 8 foot sheeting materials. Fractions easily convert to decimal also.
While the system of ten works for medical better, I actually think it as an advantage to know both.
Was never good at the temp conversions though.

What I have noticed, in Target for instance, when shopping for bedding, measurements in metric are written on the packaging.

Also in French.

This is good information. I've been using CBD oil, Hemp oil & similar products for some time now and coupled with an acetaminophen now and then are as or more effective as the nsaids that really do terrible things to your innards and I can't take any more.

Unfortunately CBD could interfere with the way one of my meds works....

I tried that once for pain. It didn't do anything. The bottle just sat around several months so I tossed it.

Takes a little time, when I do it I do every day. Of course it is not for everyone or helps everyone. But a free bottle is good for a try.
