Mon, 09 Jan 2017 01:53:28 +0000https://dyingbraincells.wordpress.com/?p=8957#comment-6470It looks like a wonderful trip! And your picture of the Portland Head lighthouse is one of the best i’I’ve seen. We never miss a stop there on our way north or south, to or from Acadia!
I used to get bad motion sickness. Dramamine helped, as did those pressure bands. If I try to swallow any ginger anything, I’ll puke with out any motion at all!

Thanks for writing. I can tell when I have too much salt, but my main trigger is processed meats…I’ve lost some hearing, but I would honestly take that as a result instead of frequent vertigo. Vertigo is so evil.

I just came upon this.I have had meniere’s disease since age 28.I am now 51. Salt is the most important thing to eliminate.I only take in 500mg/day The dr.
told me 1 tsp which is 2500mg is all people are allowed daily but meniere’s folk
have to limit it.Most people do not realize 1 tsp has this amt. I had a bad time
in the beginning but have been taking betahistine hydrachloride(SERC) for 20years and it has helped tremendously.I live in Canada but you cannot get it in US.People in Mexico,Canada,Britain and most other countries have it. My main
problem is balance….and can’t look up or down. I wish you luck…although it
is annoying….it could be worse right? Take care.

Yes, there are different broods, appearing at different times. This is the 17 year for WV, brood 5. The last time we had them was in 1999. They are all over the place..lol

Sat, 28 May 2016 19:39:10 +0000https://dyingbraincells.wordpress.com/?p=8787#comment-6430The first time I ever remember seeing cicadas was in 1986 when it was a year of the 17 year cicadas. I am thinking that there are different groups of them on different timelines, because this should NOT be a 17 year year. (2003, 2020)
Anyway, I thought they were cool, interesting. Fascinatng, even. But they were so numerous that you couldn’t walk on the sidewalks without crunching. They were everywhere. I don’t mind cool bugs, but it was just too much. We came back from Europe just in time for me to have the 2003 repeat although they weren’t so bad here where I live now. But closer to DC, it was truly disgusting!
But you’re allowed to like them. I won’t hold it against you!

We must be of like mind – when they arrived here in 2013 I felt the same way. When I was a kid my mother told me the sound they made was actually the electric lines humming.

Bill, I’m hoping they bring back Pluto. I think the poor thing has been a planet all along..lol I’m a weather geek, too. During the winter, I have a Weather Dork Report for my facebook friends..lol

Thu, 13 Aug 2015 12:03:34 +0000https://dyingbraincells.wordpress.com/?p=8740#comment-6394Glad you found the simple solution to your car problem. BTW did you find the fly by of Pluto interesting? I hope they still call it a planet. I consider myself a “Weather Geek”and was surprised that there is actually a program on the Weather Channel called Weather Geeks on Sundays at noon.

LOL! Thanks, Deb! I appreciate it! I’m glad to be back too, although I was making fun of myself when I was carving faces in the soap sliver. I even said out loud, “Is this what my life has become?” lol

I ‘met’ you when I found your post on laundry chutes. I laughed out loud because it seemed you were telling MY story. Now here you are talking about ‘soap slivers’. Yep, telling my story again.
