A Descriptive MMP

Howdy Y’all! We’ve been bzzy! The cee-mint pond is lookin’ good. Still needs more work but that’s for another time. RoundUp[sup]TM[/sup] was also sprayed in some areas that needed to be sprayed since this is a clear dry day. We’ve showered and achieved nappage. Chill mode ensues until time to deal with dindin.

red I just have to say that I am quite impressed that you were apparently showerin’, gettin’ ready to go out and postin’ at the same time. :smiley:

Happy Saturday!

So far it has been damned annoying.

Directv keeps connecting to the internet and I got an email from the cable company that I am using up my bandwidth and if I go over they will charge me more. I was on the phone with some women from directv for almost an hour, got it disconnected, and then right after I hung up it reconnected itself. I did NOT hit the reconnect button and I don’t like devices that do things I did NOT tell them to do.

(It’s why I hate fucking chrome. With chrome I do a search on ‘firefox won’t start’ and get all kinds of shit that has not a goddamn thing to do with firefox. I do a search on my bank and I get all kinds of sites to login to my bank that are not the ‘real’ bank site. Fuck chrome, and fuck facebook and it’s latest bullshit too).

I am more than annoyed because while the woman spoke English beautifully, it was obvious English is not her first language and we had some communication issues because if it. I can deal with customer support personnel who speak poor English, I cannot deal with tech support people who speak poor English.

I have stuff to do and do NOT have time to sit on the phone all day!

Wife is watching ‘The Voice’ on the DVR. I’ve heard better singers at karaoke night. It really annoys me when the ‘coaches’ tell these people how great they are and I’m cringing. Either I’m losing my hearing or they’re full of crap.
i think I’ll go take a looong shower.

Mulch is going down. These guys are amazing! It’s good to know who to call when I need more landscaping work! I bet they’ll be done within the hour.

One of the best April fools jokes ever:

Watch all the way through.

I have a very British sense of humor, I guess.

They’re packing up to go. I shall soon post pics on FB. No doubt about it -sometimes the best tool for the job is a checkbook! :smiley:

Finally got the lawn and leaf bags I ordered from amazon back in february.

I was supposed to get 12 packs of 5 bags each, I got one pack of 5 bags. It came in a HUGE box - I guess whoever packed it doesn’t know how to count.

Finally got the tv to stop connecting to the internet.

I think I should just go back to bed.

Coached my two soccer teams (we were fit to be tied; the boys tied 5-5 and the girls ended up with a 1-1 draw). Had an hour break and then refereed a U10 game on the highest field in the park (we have several fields built into the side of a hill; walking up to them is a chore).

After the game I was walking back to my car when a couple of little (4-5 years old) kids kicked their soccer ball into the woods. So of course the referee had to come to their aid. Ball had gone into a muddy creek (most non-water, but lots of mud, and guess what happened next… yep, my back took another jolt and my laundry list increased, but I did rescue the soccer ball.

Don’t know if I can keep this up for another 7 weeks.

Got an e-mail that my new car should be arriving in Nashville in the next couple of days and should be in town by 14 April. So there is that to look forward too.

Going to rest this tired body for a couple of hours prior to the Final Four. All y’all take care.

Howdy Y’all! An early dindin of burgers and fries has been ingested. I even let OYKW grill. :smiley: Tea for tomorrow is made and the poke tenderloins (I did two of ‘em in the slow cooker) are restin’ cause apparently slow cookin’ takes a lot out of poke tenderloins. When they have cooled down a bit, OYKW is goin’ to slice ‘em cause he just lurves to use the electricical carvin’ knife and who am I to deprive him of that joy especially since that means he also cleans up afterwards.

MetalMouse rest up before the final four? What are you goin’ to do, join in or referee? :stuck_out_tongue:

Bumba HEE! That’s one of my favorites as well.

I managed to sleep away most of the day which was the plan. I was/is tahred. Tomorrow shall be get stuff done day. Now to find a movie to watch.

Pics are on FB for those who are interested. I’m thinking it’s robe-and-slippers time.

I’ve spent most of today sleeping. Am definitely ill, dammit.

Hugs to all the sickies.

Not much to share today. It rained just enough to get the rug wet that I forgot I left outside. Now I’ve got it re-drying on the side of the rub.

MOOOOOOM looks like they really did a nice job!

We shall now retire to the boudoir to watch teevee until sleepy time. We’s tahrd!

Nitey Nite Y’all!

I’m talented like that. :smiley:

I’ll wave to your new rig when it gets to Nashville metal mouse. :stuck_out_tongue:

I got most of the hourshold chores done and went to the 'Boro to the maul. I got a new dishrack while I was at Bed Bath and Beyond for the CO2 cartridge. Then I hit World Market for coffee beans and a gift. After that was Michael’s for supplies for the heathen kids. Captain D fixed supper.

Red I keep meaning ask, why are the kids heathens? (Other than being kids.)

Add me to the sickies.
Every time I move my head the room spins. I slept most of the day as. I don’t even care that I slept most of the day.
I have no excuse to get sick, I’m not around other people enough to catch any germs.

I am binge watching Say Yes to the Dress. So many tacky brides picking tacky dresses.

sunny, we belong to a secular humanist organization at the buckle of the bible belt, hence, heathen. :stuck_out_tongue: Our group also does bowling with the heathens and kareoke with the heathens.

I is home; just shy of 18 hrs after this day started. A relation sent me family tree for one side. I shall look at it tomorrow, though as I wanna get some sleep as I may get up (a much more reasonable) early tomorrow morning.
