See, I NEED an Apple watch. I knew it.

I think I’ll just leave this here, for Beck.

Even though you’re obviously more Eva Gabor than Eddie Albert, I couldn’t help but be reminded of [this scene.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4PvFw5lyDJQ)

Glad to see you’re well enough to walk the dogs and post, **Beck**. I’ve recently had a health scare that has caused me to reach out to my neighbors, as well as the Merry Maids whose visits once seemed so intrusive, but now are welcome. Since I could have an “incident” at any time, I figure I should at least know the names of people whose help I might need to call out for if I fall. If you’re ever in Lafayette, my dog Reno and I would enjoy meeting you and your canine “kids”!

I’m just glad that **Beck** is here. I enjoy her contributions.

And of course your cats are not happy. You had a cat scan, for heaven’s sake!

Could happen. I have a brother in Anderson.🙂  
I’ll call first.  
ETA, I’d love to visit Reno, and you too;)

The diabetic nurse came awhile ago. She looked and changed the bandage. It looks like its holding. The ace bandage went back on. Dang thing pinches.  
I got the yada, yada, yada about not overdoing or getting too hot. She ran my meter and daid I’m fine. I knew I was. I’ve felt better the last 3 or 4 days than I have in a while. My brain got all sad and depressed earlier. I was pouting like a 3yo. But I got a little package in the mail. I got so happy. It just struck me as a treat. I loved it. I took a cat nap after that excitement. Every thing is going good this evening. Thx, guys. Love you all:)

Y’know, there’s a thought. We should start figuring out a good retirement community or the like and all retire there. What a wild time we could have if all the Dopers gathered there.

Oh, gosh, I cannot imagine a community of Dopers. Well, actually, I can:

Doper One (looking at the sky): It’s going to rain tonight.

Doper Two: Cite?

quarry (noun) 1. a place, typically a large, deep pit, from which stone or other materials  
are or have been extracted.

There we go, two birds with one stone\*, and judging by the number of posts where people complain about  
being klutzes, one less hole for dopers to fall into.

\*) no pun intended.

Ah, that reinforces the rumor going around that she is the descendant of Annie Oakley herself! Hmmm … The cat is out of the bag, now.

**Bex** , I’m glad to hear you’re doing better and I’ve given some thought to your phone/internet connection issues. We use something like[this](https://www.repeaterstore.com/products/hi-boost-home-15k-lcd-f20g-5s-lcd) on our remote sites and I think it may work to improve your reception (Mind you, that would mean it would be easier to get a hold of you and I know that’s not what you may want sometimes; it also has an off switch…). Pricy, but effective.

Not sure I would call it a crush, but I really enjoy reading your posts and your attitude. It makes me happy. And what’s not to like about a 6 ft blonde Amazon? 😉

Just for that, you get to be the second person we throw into the quarry.

We all know who the first one’s going to be. 🙂
