Hi Nancy,

 NB>  RH>> I think so. But, that's the risk taken when buying produce like

 NB>  NB>> A risk taken, to some extent, when one buys in bulk almost
 NB> anywhere...

 RH> Yes, but overall, we got enough to make it worthwhile.

 NB> It appears so... :)

And, we will be opening up the first jars any time now. It's to cool
down to the low 60s by the end of the week (but reach 80 mid week) so
winter is coming. Farmer's market will go to winter hours (10-12) on
Saturday.

 NB>  RH>> I am using it more but for light weight jobs only. Amazing,
 NB>  RH>> how even a little bit of pressure down at the hand can make
 NB>  RH>> the shoulder area hurt.
 NB>  NB>> Gives a keener appreciation for how intricately put together
 NB>  NB>> our bodies really are... :)   And how interwoven...  :)

 RH> Very much so! It's still improving; I can do a little bit more
 RH> each day (stemmed and snapped green beans for supper tonight)
 RH> without it hurting. Still not trying to raise it over my head
 RH> overly much but those times I do, it's doing better.

 NB> Little by little... :)

Yes, and even more improvment since last time you checked in. It's still
not back to what it was pre break but doing better. I'm still not
stressing it very much but doing a lot of what I usually do. Still
asking Steve to do a lot of things but he's stepped down from doing as
much as he was for a few weeks.

 NB>  RH>> I'll wait a few more days before trying to put it together.
 NB>  RH>> More for the arm to heal.
 NB>  NB>> Good thinking... :)   Also some time for it to recover from
 NB>  NB>> the stress you just put it through....  :)

 RH> Didn't sit down to the sewing machine until this week and did OK. The
 RH> pressing work was done mostly right handed. I've got until Nov. 5 (the
 RH> baby shower) to get it done so am working on it bit by bit.

 NB> So you'll likely have it done in good time, and not stress the arm too
 NB> much in the process...  :)

I'll be working on it for several days this week but since it's small,
it's not too hevy or bulky. Probably a couple of hours tomorrow will get
it almost done, then a shorter session to finish it off.

 NB>  NB>> Sigh.... sometimes one just has to use willpower...  ;)

 RH> Or won't power, as in "I won't have one" as it'll make my b/g shoot
 RH> up. My A1C today (includes the time frame I was in VT) was 5.4 so
 RH> I did right to skip an every night treat.

 NB> Apparently...  :)

 NB> Speaking of which... 'tis the season for the Milky Way Simply
 NB> Caramels... are you ready for me to grab another bag for you...?

I think I'll pass again this year; I've got a fair amount of sweets on
hand that need eating. Thanks for the offer tho.

... One of these days, I'll quit procrastinating.
