MORNING ROLL CALL L JUNE 2026

My Gabby Cat:

@DaveMcK   Agree, should not get political here!!

Had a hellatious storm last night.  Thunder.  Wind.  Rain.  Rain. More RAIN.  I heard a big CRACK and knew it wasn't thunder and looked out windows, but didn't see anything.  Kitty encampment was still standing, but hard to see much else in the pitch dark.  Went out this morning to feed the kids and guess what?

@ChasKy53 , Gabby cat is beautiful. 😽 Cats sometimes make us forget everything else, because, of course as you know, cats will demand our full attention and nothing else matters.  Not in their world anyway. 😁

I am not the Moderater of Our Front Porch Group. I am a person that has maitained it and done most of the posting in most of the topics. 

I do it to entertain the people who like to see a senior joke, read a quote or view a lighthouse.

Most of them do not post on the internet but like what we post here. Some of the topics have around 800,000 views.

Do you new posters want to take their entertain away from them?

They are not interested in the political debates that are taking place here now. Like in the past they will turn into peeing matches as they did in years past.

We had our first snow fall here over the last 24 ours. We got about 3" of snow which turned to rain this evening.

It sounds like the body shops will be fixing several cars.

Glad we are in a retirement center and do not have to shovel any of the snow.

Hi folks,  Seems like we have been waiting for winter in vain and now it is here with a vengence.  We are having a high of 49 today.   Hope everyone is well.   All critters and I are well, just one more doctor appointment to go.  Then a new drivers license.  Always something to not look forward to. 

Hi folks.  Had my last doctor doctor visit this week.  It was very easy, even though I have not seen ob/gyn for 3 years.  Waiting for yea or nay on restarting hrt after a not quite right mammogram 3 years ago. I feel that hrt would be a safer option  for osteoporosis than the bone building drugs.

 Getting the drivers license renewed next week with real id.  Also planning to join a gym geared toward older folks in January.  

@DaveMcK    Do you have a health club at the retirement complex?  Perhaps using it or using it more could help with A1C?  I find the more I exercise the better I feel.  I really let myself go for 6 years while mom was sick.  It has taken 2 years to regain some fitness.

@catwoman500 , congrats on your birds clinching division title.  Commanders hanging in there, but barely.  Seems they come out strong, but fizzle towards the end.  They beat the Saints yesterday, but that was by a bare thread and whole lotta luck.

Hey @LaDolceVita , great to hear the doctor appointments have eased up.  Just went to see a nephrologist because oncologist was worried about my sodium being consistently low and guess what?  Labs a few days before my app't. showed my sodium back up in the 'green' zone. But now, the new doc wants me to get a renal panel done. 🙄  If it ain't broke... don't go looking for something.  I know.  I know.  Maintenance and catch-anything-early and all that, but I'm tired of all the tests.

Been rainy and cold here, but it beats the snow. ☃️

@catwoman500 , counting down... 😬

Commanders gotta have their best game for sure, none of these close calls.  (At least, Congress finally gave RFK back to Washington, so it remains to be seen if they return to old DC.)

@Therapist4u   Nice to see you, was just thinking about you during my AM walk.  @DaveMcK   I am joining a medically supervised gym geared toward older folks om 1/1/25.  Making myself lift heavier weights.  Hopefully they can help my hubby with his knee pain.  

All is well here in these beautiful mountains.  I attended church services in the tiny downtown church yesterday, first time in a long while.  I enjoy the small intimate services and will probably return.   Will start getting involved in the animal shelter also as time allows.  I am still too tied down with chores though.  Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. to all Porchers.   Missing the Frozen guy.
