Little Red Quixote, The Hen From La Funny Farm

"I am just so exhausted!
I found a sock without a mate
on the floor last night.
I've been looking all OVER
for the other one.
It is most vexing.
I cannot abide losing socks.
They are supposed to
come in PAIRS
don't you know.
Well, I am going to
turn this house
upside down if I have to.
You must excuse me,
I haven't checked that
little desk in the cupboard yet.
Ta Ta!"

    Great time to try the GPS. Dang mate shows up in strange places, I found one once in my shorts , the washer ate one and another in a T shrit.
    Maybe the Red hen is using it for a nest.

    Little Red Hen - watch out for the dreaded SSS!! Second Sock Syndrome wherein that second sock never gets made because of the next sock pattern you found that you just HAD to make but you never got around to the second sock of that next pair because of that other sock pattern you found just after you cast on the last one and you couldn't wait to get started on.... and on and on and on.

    SOCK LORE as told to me by a wise old woman,

    Some sock mates are UFOs....Un-Finished Objects.

    Some socks give birth in a single dryer cycle, twins are extremely rare.

    Sock predators: Wash cycle, dogs, cats, children, and husbands.

    Danger zones: Under the bed, in the bed, pet beds, behind the washer and dryer, left in gym bags until pretrified, and in couch cushions. During basketball season the tops of curtains.

    Socks are trouble some, but we love them.

    Happy hunting,
    Paula

    RYC: cardiac patients are always advised to take prophelactic antibiotics before any dental work, which I did, which I have always done.

    What happens is that any bacteria that is present (and the mouth is just full of bacteria)gets into the blood stream during invasive dental proceedures and can cause cardiac infection and inflammation. a LOT of dogs and cats have cardiac insuffeciencies as a result of plaque accumulation because they don't brush 3x daily, lol. The plaque irritates the gums and the gums bleed, allowing a back flow of bacteria to the heart and kidneys.


    My dad had cardiac issues. I remember his misery twice a year when he had to take penicillin before a dental cleaning. Penicillin causes yeast infections. Let's just say they aren't pleasant for women and they are even worse for men.

    Anyway, I am rambling but there IS a huge corellation between dental work and cardiac malfunction. I thought I was protected but I guess I wasn't.
