Granny's gone and done it again

My brother has a smoker and he uses it when they get deer. It is much easier then trying to keep the temperature even in the old smoke houses.
We used to smoke our meat in a metal barrel with the bottom removed. Put bars across the top to hang meat on and a piece of metal roofing on the top to seal it.
We dug a trench outside the barrel that went into the barrel. You built the fire in the trench and covered it. Depending on how windy the day was, you uncovered the fire just enough to give it the right draft. The barrel acted as a chimney. I can still smell it ...ummm
We have a traeger that smokes well
 
My stomach hurts. 3rd day Ive been having some rotten gas.

I've tried tums, zofram and linzess. Its cramping. Drs tomorrow for Tom and myself. Follow up from the hospital a little late.
 
We went grocery shopping Saturday and I got extra toilet paper so it would last for awhile. (Anybody ever run out of t.p.?😏)
Last evening I saw ALL the rolls of tp set up in a huge pyramid on back of the toilet.🫣
My first thought was the domino affect is going to send it all into the water
Oh well, I decided I'm not the one fishing it out.
Later I realized DH is 'using it' for one of his sketches.
He does a lot of extraordinary sketches. But I can sleep now, he took them of the back of the toilet!!
 
I really liked the woman that came today. She was in her 70s and as fit as a fiddle. She asked me what I needed done and I told her clothes and dishes. She finished those then dug into a lot more w/o having to be told. After 3 hrs. I asked her to come take a break. She said she liked to keep going but she would if I wanted her to. I told her yes I did. We talked for a little while She was easy to talk to. She lost her DH 2 yrs ago . She is going to Portugal next month on a vaca for a month! I asked her if she would like to come back here. She said she wouldn't mind. I hope she does. She volunteers at a thrift store that also feeds people and when the boys got home from Walmart I had forgotten to write dog food on the list she went to Versailles and picked some up!. Said she likes to cook too. lol
