Breakfast win

[susandennis]

Ok, my cheese sausage biscuit breakfast is sooooooo good. Well worth the mess I made yesterday. Happily, I made enough to take me well into next week plus some. I'm a happy breakfast camper.

I did not go to the pool this morning. I wasn't sure about my digestive issues from the new pills plus I think I've been hit by allergies. I woke up coughing and congested. It just didn't seem like a good idea to share all of that with other swimmers. I've now been up for a couple of hours. I took a cough pill and an allergy pill and everything is MUCH better. Better living through chemistry.

The other day, gmail gave me a pop up about their new interface. I refreshed and could tell no difference. Google's like that - a 'major' change is often changing a button from light gray to not as light gray. But, this morning BAM! Major new interface. And, I think I like it. I keep thinking it would be better to use a proper email client. I don't really know why. I do have my email downloaded to Thunderbird over on the PC - just as a backup. But this new look will keep me in the normal gmail web version for a nice long while, I think.

I'm so dependent on Gmail. If something were to happen to my account, I think I'd just have to end it all. I have nearly 2 decades of my life saved in there.

I was going to make breakfast burritos today but now that my sausage biscuits have worked out, I don't really need to.

I need to fill out the form for the cat behaviorist. It asks all the right questions but typing out Biggie's history is going to take some work. Good thing he's only 3!

Otherwise, nothing really planned. I was going to try another pet food store but now I've decided to hold off on any food changes until the behaviorist has been here. I have a decent supply of the food that's most difficult to get (the one I'm trying to replace). I'm hoping maybe to get good suggestions on that front, as well.

I might just sit here and knit and crochet. I have one knitting afghan that is really close to being finished and my ongoing granny square project. And lots of good TV to watch while I do it. Or I can listen to my current audiobook - The Boys by Ron and Clint Howard. It's, so far, really engaging and charming.

Maybe I'll do a load of laundry.

Biggie's enjoying some lofty bird watching.

I never liked gmail. Mostly due to how I used a separate email client but no matter how I tried to sort mail like I had for years, gmail still used that all mail folder. I guess I just wanted more control and in a email client I can do that and organize folders better but in the web interface was more of a pain for me.

Have you found an app for DW or are you posting from a regular computer and then uploading the pictures from there?
P.S. Biggie, as always, is very photogenic.

I'm posting from a browser window on my chromebook. This particular photo is housed on Flickr. But if I want to put on in DW, I just upload it from my chromebook via my browser to https://www.dreamwidth.org/file/new

Ok, I see. Thank you!

Yum! I'm glad your breakfast idea worked well!

Good to hear you're feeling better after taking some meds.

I've had to find an alternate food for my dog. I'd been using the local store brand but shelves have been empty for a couple weeks. Initially, she enjoyed it but now she barely eats it. I'm hoping the original food will come back in stock so we can switch back.

Lovely photo of your cat!

I have several other mails, even one with my surname as a domain. But in the end, I always use gmail for everything. Sigh.

I have an old yahoo email and gmail and I love gmail.

The new interface threw me off at first but I like it now :-)

With the camera in front of him, he looks like he's standing at a microphone. ;)

I hope you get some answers! I know you adore Biggie. And obviously he has very good taste.

I wanted to remark that I think Ken Jennings has a little crush on Margaret Shelton, and I don't think he's very fond of the present champ.

I am way out of the jeopardy loop now. When I started swimming again, I gave up the treadmill and so jeopardy.

[halfmoon_mollie1]

oh heck, color me boring. Actually, I'd rather be swimming...

Amen, sister.

I'm the same with gmail, I operate my entire life from there

May we have the recipe for the biscuits or is it a secret? *smile|* I use Gmail, but via their Basic page, not the Standard one. The basic one is far cleaner and easier to use. Could you possibly get the cat food online? That might make things easier. I wish I knew how to crochet. I tried to learn, but I couldn't really understand it. While it was a class for the blind, most of the participants there had done this either before losing sight or for many years. I never had sight and never did it, so I was barely able to make a chain, which was very sad. I asked my grandmother to help me, as she used to crochet beautiful things when she was younger, but she had severe arthritis at that point and couldn't really help me.
