MORNING ROLL CALL JUNE 2024
Top of the morning to everyone on this 1st day of June 2024.
Happy Birthday to all of our June Birthday member.
Hey Froze! @Frozenoem
I’m really glad to see your post here! (& also thanks for kudos!)
I’m pleased to know you’re getting treatments! Mine are to resume this week with my mew Orthopedic Surgeons.....as I’ve had no help ....or treatments... since my old Doc I had for 5 years suddenly closed his office in Feb!! But the long delay has had consequences...like pain ...on top of pain & stiffness in new areas that previously had not been a problem! Oh well!
I’m still always grateful for what I have left that’s relatively OK!
And I SO relate to: “People see me weaving while standing and generally just let me go ahead in line.” As I mentioned earlier... “For me sometimes walking, doing chores...or even just sitting helps....while other times it increases pain! And I really can’t stand in 1 place like in line at the RX for more than a couple minutes...I have to start pacing back & forth a bit, & shifting feet & stances etc...drives peeps behind me nuts...LOL! Once in a while, I’ll turn to them & say sorry...but I just had injections in my knees *(or hip, back, hand, etc)......OK PEEPS?!! HAHAAA
And I had to chuckle at this part: “Either that or they fear for their safety 200 year old cane.” 😄
Also, add me to the list of friends who ... “would like to keep [you] amongst the living” !! LOL!!! 😂
Anyway....Take care my BUD & BRO

Hey, Peeps! Thought I'd share today's experience...
What a fun morning at the Driver’s License Center. I needed to get my photo license renewed and I also decided I better get my Real ID thing in case I ever needed it. So… armed with all the necessary info and documents, I headed out to the center.
Yikes! The last time I was there was during the pandemic, and they had “senior hours.” I had parked in a handicapped spot right in front and looked with dread at the line that wound around the building…but a nice man came out and took me right in and got me a ticket, easy peasy. NOT THIS TIME! LOL
I did get a H parking spot right in front, but this time the line was inside…
Oy! What a madhouse that was. A long snaky line between posts like the airport, just to get a ticket. The sweet lady in front of me said she'd hold my spot if I needed to sit down.
When I finally got to the ticket guy I said what I needed and he asked for the required documents. (If you ever need to use a utility bill for address identification, make sure it's not one you've already paid. Apparently there was no zip code on the bill that I brought in. Luckily I had brought in my car registration, so that worked. Then I sat and filled out the Real ID form while I waited for my number to be called. OMG…With all the numbers being called to 11 different stations, it was hard to hear.
Finally I got to a person, and when she was finished with me she sent me to the photo person. Will get my license with Real ID star on it mailed to me in about 15 days. I got there about 9:00, and was done by about 10:15, but it felt way longer. Whew! I’m not used to all the chaos.
Hope your mornings were a lot more fun than mine. I need coffee badly!
Hey, Porch Peeps,
Finally have some time to respond. Waiting for the AC guy to come and do the yearly maintenance check.
He just texted that he’s on the way. What are the odds that they actually arrive in the window that they say they will? LOL
@LaDolceVita and @Therapist4u …it’s the weirdest thing… now all of a sudden, I’m getting emails about posts like I used to. Maybe I can keep up now? Or will they ghost me again?
Glad the trumpet is sounding, @LaDolceVita
@Frozenoem …we were too far south here in PA for the northern lights, and it was also cloudy. I hear you about the pain…sure wish you well.
My PT has ended and I certainly can do all the exercises here, but I miss the encouragement from the great PT people I had working with me.
@MsStretch…after all the excitement I had about the “reply to topic” button, I don’t even see it!
Oh, well….
Stay well, Peeps!
Hi again @catwoman500
AFA notifications...glad you’re getting a bunch 👍...
for me still too few & random...& then like you, get a bunch...& then...(as Dylan wrote)...it’s “desolation row”! LOL!
Anyway...hope you get a chuckle from this>>>> misbehaving Kitteh!
Please have a wonderful week too!
As always, ...Stay safe....&...Take care!
