Mostly, I dodged the heat today

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

That says it all.  If the heat and humidity keep up, I’ll get the reputation of being a recluse.  It was hot and the humidity was 66%.

I did a lot of net surfing today–still wondering why the FDA approved an mRNA flu shot.  As it showed in the video, the old shot (for those who wanted it) had a better performance record.  I don’t get it.  I thought RFK was going after the gene-altering stuff.  It reminds me of when Lee and I were big baseball fans.  The Yankees (our team) would acquire a hot-shot player and before long we would say “he got fat and stopped hitting”.  I hope that’s not the case with RFK.  I guess heat and humidity make me pessimistic.

Now it looks like we may be heading for a thunderstorm.

I can’t believe it’s just the beginning of August and I’m looking forward to the first frost.

There’s just no pleasing some people.

Have a good night, all.

See you tomorrow.

God bless everybody.

One of these pictures has a bad word in it–but I couldn’t bear to discard the whole thing because so many of these pictures are just marvelous.  Please don’t be offended.

This dog will literally talk your ear off.  He has a great deal he urgently wants to say.

FDA approves new mRNA vaccine, despite risks. Why?

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

This is a little long, but very important.  I can’t see why this “vaccine” would be approved.  There are risks and the advantages over the other flu shot are minimal.  I thought we were not going to proceed with mRNA shots any more.  What’s going on?  What’s up with RFK?  This is not a vaccine, it’s gene therapy.

The meat that never was..

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

Do you ever get the feeling that the world is trying to gaslight you?

All through my childhood, teen years, young adulthood and old adulthood, there was a smoked meat–my Mom called it a “cottage ham”.  It was a smoked pork butt.  It was really delicious.  You would simmer it in a great deal of water (to draw out the excess salt) and then in the last half hour or so put in some potatoes, carrots –whatever took your fancy.  It was a wonderful meal for a cold winter night.  Satisfying, hearty and just great.

Try and find one now.  I double dog dare you.

Lee and I even had it occasionally–not too often as he didn’t like it as much as I did.  They began to disappear a few years ago.  I went on an online hunt today looking for it and could not really find it.  I found a form to fill out for one company which was essentially a request for your local supermarket to stock the item.  They were not too specific and I don’t feel it should be my job to beg a supermarket to stock an item. (Like they even would for one customer).

I’m wondering if it is a regional thing–that they have disappeared from around here, but are in full abundance in some lucky place.

I have one more place to try tomorrow, but it looks like it may end up existing in  that land where all the those  wonderful things that you remember so well from the past are still around.

That’s it for now.

Have a good night, all.

See you tomorrow.

God bless everybody.

Sad and depressed dog brought back to life by a baby

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

This dog was not able to feel any joy .  When his adoptive people had their baby, it gave him a whole new lease on life.  He became the dog he was meant to be.

Amazing- 4 month old baby safe in tree after tornado..

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

There are many incredible stories of amazing post-tornado rescues and events, but this one has to be near the top of the list.   This woman and the baby were truly blessed.
