Good morning @GoJays

[flemeth]

Well, both our DD and SIL are sick in bed with the "flu", headaches, both in bed today after their AZ shots!! So stupid. Yes, likely worth it, now they have some level of protection, still......

I'm feeling better today, yesterday I might as well have stayed in bed eating gummy bears! I feel like I had a run-in with a Mack truck sometime at night every morning, but it didn't go away yesterday. I hope that wasn't announcing another lengthy flare-up of this fibro crap. I don't need it, I just got out of one!! End of rant.

We decided not to go to camp this weekend, it's far too chilly to sit outside even near a fire and with this lockdown we're not supposed to be on anyone elses property (our kids), so if I need to stay in, we might as well stay in at home. Hopefully the long weekend will bring nicer weather.

Ok! Carry on, everyone, and stay vigilant, stay safe.

Good morning @Lynn49 sorry your DD and SIL are not feeling good after taking the AZ shot hoping they are better today

Good day friends! Been busy with Mother's day and DW birthday the next day. Everything was virtual but thankful that we're able to see
the family. It seems like another world seeing DS walking in Oz where life is pretty normal. Oh well hopefully our time will come sooner than later!
Wonky cold,cloudy weather to be replaced by warmer,sunny skies which is definitely a plus mentally and physically.
Whatever you find yourself up to today stay safe and well!

@Skippy glad you had a good weekend and get to see the family. I misses my family in the NY I also did a virtual Mother’s Day with my mom .

Morning gang.
Feeling burnt out today...

[walkonby]

hi jays, flemeth....I was up way too early today, thought about logging in but figured I better get the " soaking " dishes from last night washed up first.
Another surprising success for DS as he made up 2 servings of creme brulee without a water bath for the ramekins, or a butane torch to brown up and crisp the top...and yet they turned out great!
It's a cheater's hack I guess he found online. Mmmm, so creamy and sweet.
I had bought him a full Litre of whipping cream to experiment with, so the next batch he's planning to use our shallow glass pie plate to make more servings in the one vessel.

Jays rallied and won last night!!

May 12th, Fibromyalgia Awareness Day




...and that's just the tip of this iceberg.....

[SnowFlakey]

Good afternoon! Feeling nauseated and faint. It has to be side affects from those new pills. New doc, new pills. I argued with her about these pills but she said to give them a chance.

So sorry that many of our friends here are not feeling well. Prayers and gentle hugs your way.

Happy Thirsty Thursday @GoJays
From the 2 memes you posted I'm deducing that you leaned that way because of your work environment ( and or coworkers ).
See? I don't watch murder mysteries just for the entertainment value.

The dull, humming....constant stoopid noise outside is STILL ongoing!! I am grateful they ( hydro ) are doing this much needed work, but the digging and whatever else they do has been here since February. They do move their operations a few houses up the street from ours every so often, which is something, but that noise travels no matter how far away they are.

@walkonby creme brûlée is one of my favourite desert. The carnation milk that I bought I would used it to make it and flan and custard .

Creme Brule!! Do you remember, @walkonby , a year or two ago I made creme brule and showed our DD how to sugar-crust it with my little torch? She's been known to send them back to the kitchens in restaurants, but said mine was the best she ever tasted.
She didn't send mine back to the kitchen, lol.

It's such a special dessert, but we should have it more often.

I hope your street noises stop soon...jeepers, that's like a drip-drip-drip torture, isn't it? Only louder.

Take care, my Friend!

Good morning all.
Happy Friday
