Bell ringing MMP

I haven’t had an allergy attack in a while until this afternoon. Constant sneezing is no fun at all. After so many hours it really wears on ones nerves. After two Allegra and two Benedryl it has finally calmed down.

I did manage supper but just barely. I don’t know what set it off but I shall have to take allergy pills for a few days whether I need them or not.

I imagine I shall sleep hard with all that antihistamine in me.

Evening all. Soccer was accomplished and a Big Bowl O’Sallit was consumed for dinner. Paid some bills that will go in the mail tomorrow. All is well. Got a box of stuff from the Female Warriors site to give to my soccer players Saturday (last game of the Spring). Also got a letter for the same address number on the next street over, so I delivered it to the correct box, since I’m trying to be nice like Mooooommm.

Got a call from brother, my SIL had surgery on her knee today, will have the other one done in 3-4 months. So far my body is carrying on just fine, but one of these days…

Swampy, I restrict myself to 1 visit a month to 5 guys, else I’d be there 2 times a week and would be a candidate for one of those 600-lb people shows…

Butters, hope the allergies settle down and you can sleep tonight.

shady, sometimes the best you can do for an animal you love is let it go. 19 years is a good run.

Sari, good luck in the squirrel battle.

Good evening all

Red - I can’t express how much I HATE caraway!! So, no, I don’t put it in my cabbage. I also avoid seeded rye bread. Ugh.

Awake because it’s 5 and that’s how my body works. I’ll mess with my tablet till the household stirs. Busy day ahead but soon all the shop stuff will be out of the basement - yay!!

Happy Firday!!

Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffeinatin’. YAWN ‘Tis 68 Amurrkin out and fair (as opposed to unjust?) out with a predicted high of 90 and mostly N.O.S. this afternoon. No plans that involve leavin’ da cave today. YAY! Meds are bein’ delivered via FedEx at some point this mornin’. Also, I shall be assemblin’ my new smoker and gettin’ it seasoned. Bein’ as I am the most mechanically disinclined person on Earth, that should keep me busy for a while. :smiley: Sup shall be majik intartoobz pizza and sallit.

Butters hope the sneezies are less today.

MetalMouse before yestiddy I could not tell you the last time I was at Five Guys. They do make a good, albeit expensive IMO, burger and the fries are really good. I went in on a whim, but it was a good whim.

Happy belated birthday to Sah-son.

Now I need more caffeine and rumbly tummy demands sustenance. Then, onward into the day. Rah.

Happy Firday Y’all!

Canes lost last night, and are out of the playoffs.:frowning: And there were many assrests inside, and more cars got keyed outside. I hate Massholes.:mad: Up, caffeinated, and sheveled. Off to work.

I guess it’s just me, but I don’t see the appeal of 5 Guys burgers. They’re OK, but not something I’d make an effort to have. Same with the fries - better than typical fast food fare, but mostly just OK. Each to his own, I guess.

Yeah, I’m up. I’ve tended to the critters, ingested a PB sammich on toast, and I’m caffeinating. Eventually, I’ll shower and dress for a day of labors. Good times.

Morning all. Have a 10am appointment with the new Edward D. Jones rep, so I guess I need to make myself presentable here in a bit. 75F going to 88F today, so except for soccer coaching I think I’ll stay in the cool house.

All y’all enjoy Firday. I go forth now to prepare BLT’s to break my fast.

I’ve finished installing all the clips I can for the air line - the rest will have to wait till the air lines are in place. We’ll be making up task lists for tomorrow. And I need to plan to feed the workers.

Always something…

Happy Firday!

It’s N.O.S. and 68 degrees outside. Supposed to get up to 81, so should be a nice day. I have one load of clothes out on the line already, and another ready to take out. It got cloudy for a bit and I thought it may rain on the clothes, but the sun came back out.

Never been to 5 Guys. We really don’t eat out much. I get tired of cooking, but it’s better for us.

I warned my son, today we clean off the back porch and the deck. I want to get some sparkly things to hang around the deck to keep the birds away, damn if one didn’t shit on the seat of my chair. At least it was the plastic one and not the one with the cushion. That one is covered in cat hair. The back yard needs a good whacking, probably the front yard too, I have to go look at it.

Wait ---- you mean it isn’t even the finals yet? Og-on-a-crutch — just when is hockey season over? Sometimes in 2218???

:wink:

Other than that getting ready for the meeting tonight and the antiques tomorrow and Sunday. I am expecting some rain but much fun and adventure.

Lunch break. Slightly ticked off. I bought a bag of chips yesterday and *someone *ate them all last night. Pretzels with a sammich just don’t cut it.

Howdy all. My paycheck was short but i forgot I had upped my 401K contribution by a lot. I am glad I remembered before giving my boss hell. He has screwed up my check before.

Day 3 of sloth is moving along nicely.

Well, I’m going to start getting dividends from one of my annunities; don’t really need the money but I want to use it all and have them start paying me from their money. Otherwise things are well. Need to go sign some documents and then off to soccer practice/scrimmage. 88F out so we may shorten the periods some so the kids don’t cook.

ruble, both Hockey and Basketball go nearly to the Baseball All-Star game…it’s hard to keep interested because it never seems to end. (doggio stays interested, but he has so little else in his life to interest him…:cool::p;)

All y’all take care now.

Wusses.
You got a bunch of little Yankees, or what? 88F is the low sometimes in civilized states. :dubious:

We got just about all the air lines done - the only stretch left will run in the attic, and it will probably be done on Sunday. The forklift was delivered - it’s HUGE!! Pics in FB for whoever cares.

I’ve showered and I’m in robe-and-slippers - chillage shall ensue.

Gezhundeit butters!

Mooooooom, with a German grandmother and Polish grandfather on Dad’s side, I’ve eaten cabbage about any way it can be eaten. Grosie used to rinse kraut, chop up an onion, a couple of spoons of brown sugar and liberal amounts of caraway. It remains the only way I’ve ever eaten kraut that I liked. :stuck_out_tongue:

Hell week is over. Heck week begins Monday. I actually irked past my usual weekday quitting time. There was a last minute adjustment that came in from a supervisor who had been there since five am, had the shipping order since seven, knew that he had the physical product but it wasn’t in the system since ten and decided he needed me to adjust it in so that it could ship about 3:52. :smack: Most Fridays, he would have been SOL after 1:30.

Nelson got a good romp with the big dogs at the dog park. There was no one on the small dog side, so I checked to make sure that the big guys were OK with littles and took him over. There was a huuuuuuuge bulldog named Ringo that took a shine to him and they played a good game of tag. His bud, Remy, a sweet pittie named Tank (and the name fit) and a boxer mix rounded out the crew until right before we left and a chihuahua named Nacho came in to play. We topped that with a trip through the BBQ drive thru (pup cup for Nelson, ribs for me) and now it’s chill time.

So I managed to pull something in my hand. Closing my car door.:smack: I’ll just tell people I hurt it in a drunken hockey brawl(gotta protect my street cred).

There’s not a lot of hockey the last two week of July. Other than that…

Hey! I like other things. Like whiskey. And bacon. And women who like hockey, whiskey and bacon.:smiley:

**Red **- The main reason I don’t like caraway is because if you bite into one of them little demon seeds, the taste stays in your mouth for months…

Good morning! Nyquil kept me zonked out till 6, but once I got up and moving, the coughing and drippy nose fired up. Luckily, my shorts have pockets, and I’ll fill them with emergency tissues.

Our work crew should get here in an hour or so. Daughter is going to the graduation of her former 2nd graders this morning, so she won’t be back till lunch. Roxy is going to spend the day and night with her other grandmother. I’m breakfasting - the calm before the storm.

Happy Saturday!!

Up, caffeinated, and shheveled. Off to work. Today is my Firday.

Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffeinatin’. YAWN ‘Tis 68 Amurrkin out and fair, as opposed to unjust I reckon, with a predicted high of 92 and mostly N.O.S. for the day. No biggie plans for the day other than some quality cee-mint pond time this afternoon. This is a no cook weekend so any need to feed will be via sammiches or forage. Yestiddy I got the smoker put together and got irritated with a couple of church folk who felt the need to call me and complain about some things they don’t like. Of course none of them is exactly willin’ to do anything about stuff themselves. My advice was to either pitch in or shut up. Sometimes da bear ain’t nice. Fools do not get suffered gladly.

MOOOOOOM have fun today! :smiley:

Now I need more caffeine and to feed rumbly tummy. Then, onward into the day! Rah.

Happy Sattidy Y’all!
