The entryway is clean except for a vacuuming. I did some laundry and put some away. The custard pie turned out great last night............another Art Smith winner!
I also got my mini-quilt squares sewn together. Now, I just need to get batting, backing, quilt it and bind it.....almost there and then I am going to start the quilt for my bed!
I did a silly thing today.....I washed a load of rugs but instead of softener I put detergent in the softener dispenser. Now, I 'm going to have to wash them all over again......duh!
The rains finally stopped but it was a dark gray day today. I've been having acid reflux (?) in the back of my throat and it wakes me up at night. I already sleep on 2 pillows......from what I gather it is gerd which is when your esophagus doesn't seal and stomach acid is allowed to seep through to your throat. It burns! It's been happening for the last 2 days so I called my pharmacist, Jennifer and she recommended something over the counter. I hope it works! I've never had it before and now I am wondering if it is the coke with coffee I've been drinking. I never drink pop or carbonated beverages but I need the caffeine in the afternoon. I guess I will have to switch to tea. Have any of you dealt with this before? Old age is nothing to mess with!
BTW, I watched a great movie on Netflix that Far Side of Fifty recommended called Greater, and it is a true story that took place in Arkansas. It was very good! Thank you, Connie!
I hope all is well where you are.
Happy Trails!!!

There is a medication you can take for gerd. You can also get a wedge pillow that really helps....I got one for Gene at walmart. Glad you liked the movie! :)
I also have the wedge pillow that Connie mentioned. It helps a lot but since I started taking omeprezole, I haven't needed the pillow. I would be willing to guess that the cause of yours is the coke in your coffee. I have it worse when I have rich food, fizzy beverages or banana's in the evening before bed. Getting old isn't for sissies is it?
I did that once with the fabric softener too. Only once because I had to wash about 3 loads to get it out of the dispenser. My new washer doesn't have a softener dispenser. I hadn't noticed that before I bought it. Oh well. Too late now.

Coke with coffee? :/ I'd say definitely give up the carbonated drink. When my husband starts drinking NA beers on the daily, he complains of stomach pain and burn. Cute little mini quilt.
Have a beautiful day
Love your quilt. I used to have a wedge pillow for indigestion during pregnancy.
I suffer from GERD too. I was on two prescriptions for it, but the evening one was recalled for causing cancer! Whatever he prescribed to replace it made me nauseous so I just quit taking it. I still take one pill in the morning. And I would think that coffee with coke in any form would aggravate it! My biggest no no is fried foods. It is a whammy when summer starts and we hit the ice cream stand for dinner - fried everything! I am finally starting to grow up now that I am months from Social Security and will order ONE fried item and SPLIT it with my husband.
You completed a few fine points there. I did a search on the subject and found nearly all persons will go along with with your blog. End of Tenancy Cleaners London
