Another Manic Moanday MMP

Is that the same guy who did that routine back in the black and white television days? I remember it from Jack Parr of something like that.

Which then reminds me (in the convoluted manner my brain wanders) of John Twomey and wondering where he is these days.

I first saw it in a Jerry Lewis movie.

I beg your pardon?

Yard work done… for today. I just finished weeding the beds around the back decks, and I planted some tulips, then raked up the debris and hauled it into the woods to rot. There were at least 3 clumps of poison ivy - I hope I didn’t brush against them with bare skin, but when I came in, I washed my arms anyway. So we shall see.

It’s not that hot out, but it was still sweaty work, and hard on the back.

And now it’s lunch time. What do I want to ingest?

food. and maybe a beverage.

Irk. The last week of irk before vacay. I’m packed and ready to go. I irked yesterday just in case I goof off this week…

robyn (can’t remember your nickname), I started WW beginning of Augst for about the elebenteenth time. I’ve only lost 3.5 pounds but I’ve lost inches. We can do this!

Happy Monday,

Sitting in yet another rental car since my work chariot is in the body shop… Got nailed by a Suburban in a parking lot. Kinda pissing me off since this work car, a 2013 Ford Explorer, is the nicest work ride I’ve had in a decade, and I have it set up just right for work. And with the Pope to arrive next week I had hoped to work out of my comfortable setup.

But alas it is not to be. Instead I am in a rental Ford Edge. Nice vehicle, though I like the Explorer better (a little larger).

Otherwise life drones on…

I’m Rockin’.

Last time I did WW, I lost almost 100 lbs. Then I had a craptastically stressful job, another job at a place with an awesome food court, and I fell off the wagon. Since my current job is very active, my size didn’t shoot up, just the pounds.

Say what?

I gained almost all of the weight back, but only went from a 12 at my smallest to an 18. I started out as a 22/24 last time.

May you have an easy fast, rosie, flytrap and any of the rest of the Chosen.

One of the big counts that would have kept me busy most of the week didn’t happen this weekend. Which sucks because it will come up to bite me in two weeks, right in time for month end.

Thank you, but that’s Yom Kippur and it’s next week.

Howdy from da cave! Home a little early from irk just because I could and because it bothers flytrap. :stuck_out_tongue: Tonight is taco night at la cueva del oso. OLÈ! Tasty and easy like the way I like my men.

Time to go see what up on teh intartoobz.

GGGGGRRRRRRRrrrrrrrrrr

Whoops! Same sentiment next week. :slight_smile:

The electric company finally got their website fixed so I could pay my bill.
I’ve never had such a hard time giving somebody my money.

I fell back to sleep this am and didn’t wake up until 1. I don’t know why I’m so tired.
My mother called, she is back from her trip and is leaving for another one on next Moonday. She wants me to come down one day this week so I have to pick a day I guess. She’s decided she is going to the senior place so she wants me to take whatever I want. I don’t want to junk up my house but I could take the patio furniture. It’s wrought iron and very heavy. I think my niece wanting to move in with her is what pushed the decision that way. She has two bedroom sets I can have too, although the one was made for a water bed and is extremely heavy. I have to think about it, maybe one set. Sah-son wants to bring his bed too so we shall see. I think we may have to rent a truck for all this, and get some people to help us move.

This is just too much to think about right now.

It is a chilly 59°F and overcast with a slight chance of showers and a predicted high of 65°F. It seems that we are not going to get the Indian Summer I was hoping for, time to dig the NOT’s and put some fried green maters on the menu.

My garden would have done better had I just trusted the process, but I did not, plus I had a couple of mishaps which benched me for most of June; I have high hopes for next year. Since my soil is heavy, slimy clay and I am in a wheelchair strawbale gardening caught my attention a while ago, and this year I was determined to try it. Next year I will plant even though it’s amazingly early and the straw does not look as though it will sustain life! I also have plans for using the same process to grow some flowers in the front, it will be a wonderful medium for my dahlias and I’ll tuck annuals in the sides. Another great thing is that the straw being compostable will give me that to spread on the more convential flower beds and to fill containers with.

Metal Mouse for wasps there is no heaven, just everlasting fire.

flytrap I am in need of some assistance with fish id. I need to try to get a better photo, but it is freshwater tropical, kind of white face with a blue body. The kids bought it for me with some others (I know) and said this is a marbled molly, but I do not think it is. I’ll get a photo and post it before it is evening my time.

Okay, time to do something, even if it’s wrong! :stuck_out_tongue:

Finally got into work ,worked, came home. Today’s my Firday.

Funny, I always pictured you with more hair. :wink:

It’s been done.

That should be my motto. ;):smiley:

Tacos (OLÈ!) have been consumed. YUM! The kitchen is all cleanded up and OYKW is preparin’ for a soak in the tub. Even though I didn’t know him then, apparently I decided on a whirlpool tub when I had this place built just for him. :smiley:

{{{wiki}}} come back and play some more!

Time to recline and finish the afghan. Tomorrow, mowage shall ensue.

MWAH!

I wish I had a whirlpool tub.
Or a hot tub.

One of my clients had a hot tub I could use when I was pet sitting. I used to fall asleep in it. The get woke up when an acorn hit me in the head.
I also learned that one needs to be careful where one sits when nekkid in a hot tub.
It would be so nice though, out there in the dark with all the stars.

Maybe one day I’ll get one here.

Now I’d just be happy if I could get a tub that doesn’t feel like a coffin.

I ate such a big breakfast I still don’t feel like eating dinner. I do want some chocolate though.
