Oh...and I have a Tribe!! It is you all! 
 

Want me to put a picture of my finger Tiny?? Lol! I won’t torture you with that, but will look through my pics for a purple Starfish for you today. Right after the Pharmacy and nap and walk. In that order. Our crunchy store has this chocolate milk that is to die for and I’m gonna get me some to soothe my soul. Will toast my Tribe.

Hmmm. Had Susan here too but don’t see her. Maybe there is a limit. Anyway...you are definitely also my Tribe Susan!

The pears are called starkrimson. They are so good. The crunchy store carries them through December. I simply must get some more soon. I highly recommend them. Oh gross, do not lance that finger yourself! You can get an infection and we don't want anyone passing out. And wear your dang gloves next time! Do you want to relive this? You're quit the risk taker you know. I've been trolling around online looking for good starfish videos but none have blown my socks off. I need to research more, especially these purple ones you speak of. ..

Ha! Am I? Risk taker. Yeah, I think you may be somewhat correct. I don’t generally view the way I live as risky except maybe when I smoked. Talk about risk, yes? Generally I’m not too afraid to venture out and live for sure. And I do want another motorcycle but will probably forgo that and put the money into travel instead. Soon as we can again.

Well Tiny...this darn finger is already infected! So lancing it myself would be no big deal and probably make it feel a lot better. It is likely throbbing from Pus building up in there. No, I wouldn’t ask Pat, or probably even tell him I was gonna. So funny to see the big dudes. The bigger they are the harder they fall for sure! 
Sitting in the parking lot waiting for meds. Went through the drive through but it wasn’t ready yet. Then to crunchy store for chocolate milk and with a little luck some lovely pears!! I desperately need a nap.

Here...found this article while waiting here about the purple ones off Oregon Coast and it has some pics for you... Lots of the ones on Google images appear to photo shopped to me. Not sure why folks do that as they certainly are beautiful in their completely natural appearance. Humans can’t leave stuff alone and just accept things the way they are too often. Including each other! 
Oh just read it while waiting. It mentions the Gooseneck Barnacles and says they are increasing due to lack of adult Starfish to eat them! There you go Tiny. Ocean facts.

I love the article! Too bad about the wasting. Not only that but the barnacles are really off the charts because of it. I like a barnacle as much as the next gal, but I like starfish better. Ooh, I wonder what a barnacle feels like?!?! My husband promised to take me to the ocean next year and I'm pretty jacked.

Lol we are Tribe now?? Sure why not. I will toast to all of you!

Worked today, got in a 40 minute workout, mowed lawn, did dishes......,relaxing time. My drink of choice to toast my tribe is Bluepoint Oktoberfest! Not bad. Fitting for 1st day of fall.

Hugs Ladies! 
 

Couldn’t get Tiny in CC

Well, yes, we are! How can we not be?? I think it was Peggy that told me I had my Tribe here. It may have been in a PM. But...Peggy would not lie to me Eve, so yes! We are a Tribe! We may get a little sick combining that brew and my chocolate milk, Peggy’s Tart Cherry Kombucha, Susan likely has a nice fine wine, and Tiny...I’m gonna guess Tiny has a nice steaming cup of tea to toast with. I seriously doubt she has something gross like a pumpkin spice latte, though no offense meant to anyone who indulges in that blasphemy of a good coffee! Haha!

You’ve had a full and productive day! Yay! Not me. But I’m awake now again and suspect the next several hours I will get things accomplished. Gonna start off with a walk now. Had a short one this morning. Now I am gonna go out with my “bird flipping” finger bandaged up and wave hi to folks! Lol!

Man I wish we could add more people to the cc. I left out Susan, sorry! No, i do not have pumpkin coffee. Don't generally touch coffee. I've been drinking mint tea from the republic of tea. They make some pretty good stuff. Soothes the stomach and the soul, I say. I cheated and didn't buy it loose leaf. Ok, fine we are a tribe. But no funny business. I demand video and book recommendations. And recipes. And pictures of ocean animals.
