The 50 Plus Cafe, Pub, All-Nite Greasy Spoon and Dive Bar

Good morning NC and other early risers. Coffee is brewing any way you like it.

Check with your local hospitals for recommendations. Also ask friends and family in the area. Don't be afraid to leave a provider if you don't click. And, as always, I'm here for you!

I'm glad that I avoided the first hip guy I went to see. I liked the second one.


Ask people _ I did.

Telly landed on his feet! He, and his people, are lucky!

Telly is prone to get Foot Stuff. He stands in the barn when he needs to be outside. Their feet get sensitive when they stand where they pee for too long. Then you have to clean out the hoof and put stuff on it. He likes the attention and will willingly hold up his feet to have them worked on.


You can also put him out of the barn and set one 2x4 across the door and keep him in the pasture. Now, he was a jumper, but he'll act all oppressed by a piece of framing lumber which he could easily jump.


Silly old poodle.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

It absolutely is child abuse! I vowed I would never do that to any child of mine. Unfortunately, I wasn't lucky enough to have any. So, I became a dog mom. Even with my dogs, if they refused a certain food, I would take it up and try something else. My mom's feeling was "If they get hungry enough, they'll eat it."

I encouraged mine to try stuff and to find out what he likes on his own.


Cats will not eat some things. They will refuse and starve themselves into liver failure. If one has several cats and everyone is happy with the food selection, then it gets left alone because all are eating.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Yes, dear!

Remind me to bump you into the wall next time we walk down a hall.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Wonderful memory! I bet it felt like a massage to you!

It felt more like a large poodle was seeing if he could push me over with little poodle effort. There was a stance which needed to be assumed for successful scratching post experiences.

I hope your wife's surgery went well, H!

Statin drugs are used to reduce cholesterol and other fats from the blood. You should let your provider know if you drink more than 2 alcoholic beverages per day, have liver or kidney disease, or thyroid problems. They're both well known statins. Atorvastatin, known by the trade name Lipitor, is a bit older and has had a good track record. Rosuvastatin, or Crestor, is a newer drug. They both will lower the LDL, or bad, cholesterol. HDL, or good, cholesterol can be increased with exercise.

Low dose aspirin has been used as a mild platelet inhibitor for years. Newer studies have shown little to no correlation with blood thinning. However, I have seen patients with stroke or heart attack helped by aspirin. I don't think it hurts to be on it and it might help.

Just try to remember, it is possible to "out-eat" your meds! They won't save you from a bad diet. There's a reason fast food is called "heart attack in a sack!"

I hadn't seen that put as succinctly. It should get more play.


I had never heard the bolded part.

For our tea lovers

 

[Wat_Tyler]

It is amazing kids can turn out decent with the shitty things our parents did to us...

A lot was ignorance on their part(s).


A bit felt like vindictiveness.


I was at breakfast with Dr. Tyler yesterday.


DT: My mother was right-handed and hit me in my left ear.

WT: My mother was right-handed and hit me in my left ear. I'm a bit deafer there than the other side.

DT: No I didn't.

WT: I see . . . .

 

[Wat_Tyler]

3 am club..... I literally have done nothing for 3 days...... no wonder I am awake....

I didn't do much yesterday. I won't do a great deal today, either.


Okay, maybe a bit more, but it's gonna have to wait until after coffee.

 

[Dayhoosier]

Mornin' all .... Storms all night here and more on the way. I like spring but could do without the nagging feeling that I need to build an ark.

My gripe or rant is about aging and its effects on the body. I have essential tremors and I can’t do fine motor things like electrical as I used to. I now am experiencing some normal short term memory loss and need young folks to slow their conversation down or text it to me. I will likely miss something. I now have aching hips and know it won’t be long before I have a hip operation. And I don’t want to be one of those folks who only talk about their operations etc. but I do need my adult children to understand I am going through this period and I find it frustrating.

I felt I could vent here.

Morning everyone!

What are you choosing this evening to drink? I would love whiskey but men... They like bottleneck leggings than the bottle itself

Never mind, doing whiskey talk

You can. Any time. Many of us have had some or most of what's going on with you, at least in some form or fashion. Those Who haven't, haven't yet, as in, You're Eligible, Too. Your attitude is upbeat and positive, so you have a wonderful chance of successful outcomes no matter what happens.


Death comes for us all. This crowd is the type that smiles back and says, "not today."


"Motherfucker" is optional . . . .
