New Wrinkle Update.
November 18th I had one mercury filling replaced. Originally the Dr. wanted to also do the tooth next to it that has a composite onlay? He chose just to replace the mercury filling. Apparently something must have happened because afterwards he said the nerves in that tooth are likely to recede and I'll need a root canal! No mention beforehand! 😬

Yesterday, Friday evening, I started having mild pain in the tooth. Enough to make it difficult to fall asleep. I don't believe my insurance covers root canal and crown.

Regardless, the timing couldn't be worse as I'm seeing my eye Dr. on Wednesday to talk about cataract surgery. Monday I'll call the dentist about my tooth. Pretty sure both can't happen at the same time. Right now I'm wearing a magnifier headset I've used for close-up work. Like cleaning the lettering on the bottom vintage Magnalite cookware. Not ideal but it's allowing me to type this blather 😳

At least increasing the subtitle text size to maximum is allowing me to watch some K-Drama. I do love my K-Drama I tell ya! 😂

Wishing everyone good health and wellness!

Good Friday! Here's the scoop as my Sister used to say.
I saw the eye Dr. Wednesday. He said I can't see because of Cataracts and a new prescription is pointless until after removal surgery! I've known I have cataracts for years but they were mild. How can this happen in a matter of weeks. Plus I thought it was my right eye, not left, that was in worse shape. I wasn't ready to commit to SURGERY! Made another appointment for the 10th with the Dr. who would do the SURGERY!

Yesterday I took an old pair of glasses and put them in front of my current Computer glasses and I could see clearly out of my left eye! I popped the lens out of the right side, since that eye seems pretty good. Taped the glasses together and I could see all evening! This morning it's just not as good 😭 Sigh. Thought it might help me get through the week.

One thing I didn't mention is I have weak eye muscles. A life-long issue but controllable. However, with my left eye out of focus, that's where it's quite tough to see as a whole.

I question the need for cataract surgery at this point. If I can use glasses somehow for a little while longer, that's what I'm hoping for.

What I'd like to do: I will read all your comments and ❤️ and 👍. But for now at least, only reply when asked a question.

I'm going to try a keep making videos because I love making videos! Or not. I guess we'll see... Ba-dum-bump! 😬

Wishing everyone good health & wellness!

Hey kids! Over the last month my eyesight has worsened dramatically in my left eye. Hopefully it's just glasses. I can barely see what I'm typing right now! But not bad for using the same computer glasses for 5 years! So if my comment replies are delayed more than usual, please bear with me. I have an eye appointment on the 8th so there's that. Still going to try and make some videos but editing (which I love) is quite difficult. Going to be a rough week. 😟

Maybe a video on my kitchen knife collection which I keep procrastinating on. Or more Whamo! Super Stuff?

I hope to do a video, hosted by Gumby and Pokey for a short health update. I'd rather they do it as I detest whining. Not other peoples whining. My own whining. I know Gumby's up for it but Pokey's holding out for big $. 😳 😁

Wishing you all the best!

Good Tuesday! My apologies, I'm re-uploading my bunny video as I misspelled the word 'gnawing' and it would have gnawed at me for all eternity. My bad 😳 Hope you got my replies to your wonderful comments! ❤️ !!!

Arriving tomorrow (fingers crossed). Eggs Friday morning? Here is a Bridgeport Copper Core 8 inch square saucepan. I might not have bought it but for a few reasons. It's from 1956 my birth year! And the pictures make it look gorgeous! It may not be. We'll have to do an unboxing! I'm so very excited! 😀

Good Monday! My apologies in advance. I thought I'd address this here and not in tonight's video. I'm making another Whopper video! If you've been on my channel a while you know I occasionally get obsessed. I was obsessed with Waffle House for a while for example. Last week I made a Whopper without the beef. Just the fixins and a slice of cheese. Yes, it was just a salad sandwich but man it was almost a Whopper. I thought that today we'll make a Tempeh Whopper, for some texture and maybe coated with a little Sweet Baby Rays for flavor. Of course if it doesn't work out this message will self destruct.

Tucker's Leftover Chili on Spaghetti (frozen, thawed) DELICIOUS!
If you've never added cinnamon to chili I highly recommend it! It's a new chili experience for me!

1.5 lb ground beef (I used chopped)
3/4 cup chopped onions
3/4 cup diced sweet bell peppers
1 tbs olive oil
Brown the above 10 minutes
Spices:
1 tsp salt
2 tbs chili powder
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/8 tsp garlic powder
#2 can (about 20 oz) of diced tomato
1 can kidney beans

Add spices to the meat mixture and simmer on low heat partially covered 1 hour or until thick or liquid absorbs. Serve over rice or spaghetti. PS I added about 1/2 tsp of cinnamon to the spices. My own little twist

Good Saturday Evening! How's everyone doing this weekend?
Speaking of vintage cookware!
Here's a picture of a 1952 Wear-Ever skillet. I've never seen one in 'real'
life. Anyone else? Lots of vintage Wear-Ever but this one is a mystery 😀
