Good morning!!!!

If my iPhone is set at or near highest volume when playing music, watching videos, etc., my ear drum (think it's mostly the right one) "vibrates" to the point of being annoying. This is without earbuds, although it's possible it could happen with earbuds too (I really don't wear them all that often)

Anyone experience anything like that ?

I am probably misunderstanding what you are saying. However, if my phone is set at the highest sound level with music, My ears hurt. It’s way too loud unless I’m a good distance away.

I need to be around 70% for it to be comfortable and the phone is within arms reach.

I just renewed the license sticker on the Jeep for two years...$120.oo.
I sure am happy I live in the north. People in Southern Ontario pay $120./year. I pay $60.oo/year and get 'em 2 years at a shot.

I just renewed the registration on a Honda Trail 90, a 90cc scooter. Here in Kalifornia they get the princely sum of $129 American for one year, up three bux from last year, on a bike that was made in 1975. You do indeed have it made, Bill!

Ball parks plump, beacuse they are full of water. HN are pretty good and they are forced to use cow parts vs.....

Rswyan any chance of the recipe- I have never had a macaroni salad I liked and my kid loves the stuff.

If I recall correctly the matter of a recipe recently came up and I was informed that "there isn't one" (just "the way Mother used to make it") ... but I'll see what I can do.

Mother's recipe (that doesn't exist ... ) uses mustard and green olives.

Way too loud at the highest level ... if I have earbuds in.

If I'm on the couch and it's sitting on my belly not too loud necessarily (depends on what I'm listening to), but I the rendition of certain frequencies will cause my ear drums to vibrate.

I need to be around 70% for it to be comfortable and the phone is within arms reach.

I can tolerate the volume level at 100% (like say with Pandora) with it sitting next to me (no ear buds) and it doesn't seem too loud ... although at that level the speaker seems to have some distortion occasionally. Usually have it at 90% or less.

You are required to register off road bikes?

It's a dual sport, but yes, even full on motocross bikes have to have what's called a Green Sticker to be ridden on public lands in Kalifornia. The state has many, many ways of getting its hand deep into your pockets.

 

[Buppies]

PJS just one study sometimes I think some of us are predisposed to getting the stuff.

Well - we really aren’t much different.

Dual sports (if you want to ride on the street) must be registered.

Plus, you have to but a tag if you want to ride dirt bikes or ATV’s in state parks.

But, if you only ride on your land (or neighbors land) no registration at all.

Grapefruit another one bad for diabetics who take metformin

Mornin all, somewhat sunny.
Been scattered showers since Friday, but did get a lot of plants in, and another flower bed raked for another 4 dump carts full. trip to Princeton and Peddlers village to alleviate some of the cabin fever.

Wngsprd - how is Coco ?
L4N - sorry to hear hospice so hard on patients- Prayers you DIL does not suffer too much at the end
Randy - hope this is your last episode for a long time-does not sound like fun-sorry to hear stuck at hospital
BEF- went to 5 guys last night- we get the single patty burgers- 3 burgers and large fry to share about $27.
Roy I have the same aerator going on 6 years, used twice a year. I still use cinder blocks, your setup looks much nicer

Heard a red tail yesterday-looked up, seems to be a mockingbird!

Took my first run with the M18 pole saw on a 30 foot branch hung up in another tree. Performed quite well. Did have to re-tension the chain. Looks like it does leak oil, but not if placed tip down.
Line trimmer attachment works ok, would be happier if it spun faster, but it does work.
About a 30 minute run between the 2 attachments and battery only down one bar. Will need to buy another battery to do the road line and driveway of I try to do it all in one day.

Still need to dethatch and aerate lawn, more planting, more sticks to pick up. and a slew more projects-about 4 weeks behind from when I was sick-still not fully back, but getting there.
Need to do an oil change on tractor-parts arrive tomorrow, as does my 2nd Pfizer dose, we will see if I am up for anything after that.

Stay safe and be well.

Great dog pic. Thanks for asking about Coco...not doing too well.

I just remembered another mustard delivery system...honey mustard dressing that I use for dipping my celery snacks.

 

[Buppies]

Hope Coco gets a miracle

Thomas ready for some more snow?

 

[buckeyefarmer]

I only buy Hebrew National hotdogs. But we don’t eat them often. No mustard for me. Ketchup and relish.

 

[sodamo]

Mustard, relish, onions for me
Sometimes a sprinkle of celery salt

 

[PJSprog]

Yup ... mustard, relish, and onions ... and cheese. At bare minimum, mustard and cheese.

 

[lostcreekranch]

I try not to eat too many hot dogs and buy unprocessed ones when I do, but the provenance of the ingredients always makes me wonder...
But as Wingsprd said, the perfect mustard delivery device. Let's face it you don't put mustard on toast or cake.
RS would certainly not use mustard on one of his sheet cakes, so how do you eat the stuff? Many of us can't spoon it in straight.
I get cramps too...and try to eat more mustard and spicier foods
without aggravating my acid reflux. Lots of different kinds of mustards too so you can experiment. But I read here somewhere I think that the cramp fighting capacity
of plain yellow mustard was the same as dijon or earthy rough ground mustards. I prefer it ground up well enough the bits of mustard don't get stuck between your teeth.

those fake hot dogs sure do taste awful though. Chicken dogs, rubbery mixture of UMO's. Is a healthy hot dog an oxymoron? maybe they make vegan dogs?

Try potassium tablets. That's been my remedy for years.

I’m home! Already had a nap in my recliner after some insta pot turkey cutlets with carrots.
I’m tired after a day of jumping through more hoops than a trained dolphin. Approvals for IV meds through my PICC line, for home health nurse, from the infectious disease specialist, regular doctor, getting two sets of “final vitals” because it took so long, but meds were delivered and refrigerated an appointment with home care nurse.

But hey, I’m home, last Wednesday which I remember little if, I wasn’t sure I’d ever see home again.

Thank you all for the prayers and well wishes they really help!
