THE TROUBLE WITH GOING FOR COFFEE

BTW the sign says "Trucks in the rest. lot will be toed". This rather humorous faux pas is not why I'm posting this photo however, it's the addition you see closest to the camera.

For the reason, my friend has no hope of getting into a booth, we sit in this addition. He is quite disabled, so we need to be in the half booth in the back here. He can just slide in this way and get back up with a lot greater ease, as if we where in a full booth.

However, in the summer, there is no A.C. in this section, and the windows on the roof like that make it nice and bright in there, but it also makes it very hot in there.

I'm sensitive to the heat because of my health and when it's over 30C outside, I am in a bit of distress sitting in that section and often don't last more than 90 minutes or so.

The heat makes me feel sick and dizzy quite easily. It also gives me a headache because it raises my blood pressure. This is never good and can lead to a stroke or heart attack with my poor health. So I try to keep cognizant of how I'm feeling and will ask to be taken home if I get to bad.

I love coffee with my friends, but so much gets in the way. Not just the heat issue, but my fibromyalgia as well. If I sit in one place for too long, I can become in severe pain just all the sudden. It does not ease into being, the pain will just hit me like a wall. The arthritis in my knees is also an issue with sitting for a long time. So about half the time I don't make it all the way, and have to ask to go home.

Gone are the days when we sat out for coffee for 8 hours and eat garlic toast and drank 20 cups of coffee. Now if I make it 3 hours, I'm going good.

HOW TO FIX BLOGGER FROM DOUBLE SPACING LINES OF TEXT

Image
When you click on the editor to type text, it changes to "Paragraph" instead of "Normal". This causes there to be a double space between lines. If your trying to do a list, this is a serious piss off. So you have to click where it now says "Paragraph" and set it back to "Normal". I've had it a couple times not stay, and had to select all then set it to Normal again. As well it puts in a leading space (indentation of 1 space) you may want to delete as well, or your list won't look quite right at the top. It used to stay where you put it, but now it just up and changes it to Paragraph for literally no reason - even if you first set it to Normal - you click and POOF it changes.

Matilde Vicenzi Cookies Are Great

Image
Was sent these by a good friend for a birthday gift. They are really very good. Quite possibly the best cookies I've had in years. I tried them all, and I like the white one you see in the bottom picture, as it had a lemon taste to it. Some had a bit of liquid chocolate in them and where very good as well. Like normal, the ones with the bit of jam in them where a bit too sticky and chewie. But I seriously enjoyed all of them. These are great. I'm going to look them up on Amazon and if they are not too much money, I'm getting more for Christmas. OK just looked it up and NOPE, it's $28 a can. They are very good, but that is a bit out of my price range. But the usual Christmas Danish Butter Cookies are also kind of a lot of money now as well. They are also a bit moist, and not super dry like usual. Also not powdery like a lot of them do. I'd give these an 8/10 and would recommend highly.

YEAH THAT'S NOT A SCAM, I'LL EMAIL YOU RIGHT AWAY LOL

Image
 The anatomy of a scam. This is the exact format I've seen several times on other people's videos on YouTube (in the comments). See if you went to my channel the latest video would be at the top of the list and this was on an older one. There is literally an email link in my profile on YouTube and it was not used (even if it was I'd not fall for this crap). They use the words "your family" to make you react emotionally. You have thoughts like "Is someone hurt or in trouble"? This is almost always a way to try and get "money to your family member in need". Or it's a way to get information out of you. Sometimes it's a long lost relative you never freaking heard of leaving you money. There will always be a fee you need to pay for the legal matters to be cleared up and you to get the money. SCAM. It's interesting I've seen so many people reaching out on YouTube to people about "their family" this few months.
