nut, does your garden design have to be hand drawn? Because it sounds like a job for Visio or even Excel to me.
metal mouse, if your appointment to sit in the dentist’s chair is in the morning, we may be sitting at the same time.
butters, do you think Louie will guard the baby or be jealous?
Mooooom, as a veteran of a cross country move with cats, I know that sometimes they go plumb crazy (or crazier, as the case may be). Figaro went psycho and would hiss and take swipes at Domino once we arrived, even though they had lived together for seven years. Then she took to peeing on my bed. I had to get a new box spring and mattress and shut her up in the bathroom when I wasn’t there.
I’m training to take over some of the reporting functions of the geek team in my department. So far, most of the stuff is based upon reports that I already know how to run, so it’s filtering things down for different audiences and getting distribution lists. My former boss told me today that he’s leaving the company. He took a different position within the department so that he could work remotely from Milwaukee a few months ago. He has an aging father with dementia and is spending a lot of time taking care of his affairs but now he needs full time care. I’m going to miss him.
**Red **- my daughter got some kind of anxiety meds for Cleo, and I give them to her every night mixed in a little wet food. This weekend, I’ll try again with the open door. The biggest hassle will be keeping Higgs out of Cleo’s litter box. She loves them kitteh tootsie rolls!
Still raining, and it’s supposed to continue overnight and into tomorrow, then Thurs night into Firday, but the weekend looks quite nice, so yay for that! I’m about to assume the crochet position on the recliner. I’s tahred - hope I sleep thru tonight.
They gave me such nice drugs that all I remember is Evile Mrs. Plant v.2.0 and a physician laughing because I didn’t remember the results he told me thirty seconds later.
Well its official the high desert going from our season of cold and windy to our other season of hot and windy we only get about 2 1/2 seasons of the year …it was between 90 and 94 by our thermometer …
Due to the never ending noise of the roofers HRH Lucky Louie had to stay home again today as he is skeered. But the roof is finished as of this afternoon except on Sat they are coming back to drill holes through the concrete and metal every 12 inches. The worker I talked with said it will be extremely loud so I got permission to close on Sat for the normally four hour day. Thus LL can get back to irk tomorrow. I am burned out and need a vacay. I may try to take off Firday and have a three day weekend. We shall see.
Bucktoother Rooster made dinner. Diners, Drive Ins and Dives was there today filming an episode. I just got a Cobb salad but started feeling puny and will take it for tomorrow’s lunch instead.
Oh yes, colonoscopies are fun! You get there feeling like your insides have been washed out with Fels-Naptha soap, and when they take you to the holding pen, you’re greeted by random farts. At least the milk of amnesia works really well!
I’m surprised more restaurants haven’t been opened next door to colonoscopy places as all you can think of once you get dressed and stagger out into the daylight holding several 8x10 color glossy photos of your insides is FOOD. FOOD! FOOD! EAT! GET FOOD! NOW EAT FOOD! TAKE ME TO FOOD!
At least that page or two of pictures is useful an hour later after you’ve eaten and can’t remember how your doctor said everything went. Mine was a month ago, and so far, I’m beating the familial odds.
Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffeinatin’. YAWN ‘Tis 55 Amurrkin out and dark even though TWPTB say clear, with a predicted high of 78 and mostly N.O.S. for the day. The big task today is mowage. Yahd needs it and it’s supposed to rain this evenin’ and tomorrow so I suppose I should just get it done. We shall sup upon salmon patties, peas, smashed N.OT. and bizkits. Somebody pulled sad puppy dawg eyes on me last night and asked if we could sup upon that today. Spoiled brat!
CupCakes a colonoscopy is awful, but like flytrap said, you get good drugs so there’s that. Also Sunny’s suggestion of a clear diet the day before is good advice. Gotti is right about food. You will want sustenance soonest. Expect to be pretty goofy and out of it for most of the day as well. I’ve had two and was seriously fuzzy haided both times.
Now I need more caffeine and to feed rumbly tummy. Then, when there’s enough daylight out, mowage shall commence. I also need to purchase comestibles so I suppose that should be done as well.
If anyone wants me to properly design them a garden, the answer is no. Don’t think I’ll be winning Chelsea Flower Show any time soon. No wonder garden designers are all weird.
Red, I don’t have to hand draw it, but I don’t have any software that can do what I needed to do; excel ain’t gonna work. I decided I’d spend longer messing around looking for software and trying to learn to use it than I’d spend just getting on with drawing it, and it’s only one assignment.
Today is pick up groceries day, I’m not looking forward to carrying groceries in in the rain.
I forgot to get butter, well I didn’t forget, I ordered it but somehow it got dropped from the order and I didn’t notice it was missing.
I suppose I can use Pam when making omelets.
I have a huge blurf today, I hope I wake up soon, but I doubt I will.
Well, up again at 0630, got to get back to the sleep-in part of retirement.
Contractors due back to finish prepping the area for the concrete (amazing what you can do with concrete), but chances of rain today and Thursday, so don’t know when they’ll be able to do the pouring.
Sari, enjoy the groceries.
Nut, now worries here, I only grow weeds, so no gardens for me. FCM might be interested…
Mowage is completed along with the procurement of foodstuffs. Go Me! Chillage shall now ensue. As far as my yahd goes, as long as it’s not the worst one in the 'hood I’m good. Heck, there are times I’m good with tied for worst. Have I mentioned I detest, loathe, and in general do not like yahd irk?
Having met IRL you know better than most -------- the words “half” and “my ass” will never be used together.
And since I’ll be gone from tomorrow morning to Monday or Tuesday, be sure to annoy Flytrap for me if you get the chance.
On a semi-related note the OW has scheduled her first colonoscopy after being chided by doctors for years. She now gets to join the “Muppet Club” with the rest of us. I didn’t find the actual procedure all that bad; I had a really good doc and nurse. It was that GoLytely stuff ------------ that was invented by Lucifer and his minions.
Blurf of the highest order. I just want to run away. I am attempting to make sense of my office which is a mess. Louie was traumatized by the roofing so much I had to drug him today with benedryl even though the roofers are not here today making scary noises. I may have to leave him home for a while until he forgets. He is napping now so there is that.
