Now that I have time to sit down and post,
I have seen them being made on cooking shows and my first thought has always been “Pretty! Super thin slice please!!!” cause it looks so very rich.
Both of you have been working really hard on time sensitive things. Now that things have quieted down to a quiet roar, maybe both of you should take a few days to do as close to nothing as possible. You both deserve some down time after the last couple of months and burnout really is a thing.
I am not a doctor and don’t like watching medical shows…but I am the unhappy owner of a hip bursa. It has been over 10 years and hasn’t resolved itself. Surgery would include back surgery and I’m a weenie, so I’ve taken up Tai Chi instead. That really has worked much better FOR ME than the many rounds of PT I’ve taken. And of course I smoke a bunch of weed to keep myself in a happy, don’t give a shit mood.
I really do hope you get better results.
Lily has mentioned taking fast drying unders on her cruises, have you looked into them?
I also print out everything for my trip. While I’m fairly sure that I won’t need it (never have in the past) it makes me feel better 
Well darn. I hope things pick up over the week, you don’t want your store front spot to go away with the pet store. Plus you need money for the critters.
You are a very kind and thoughtful person!
Now that you are retired, you have time to contact the Visit | The Peregrine Fund aka The World Center for Birds of Prey. They are the ones responsible for saving the falcons after their DDT caused population drop and they are still heavily involved in relocating birds to favorable homesites. You might be able to have a few brought to your building so they can hunt and thrive in different canyons.
Manhattan has one of the largest populations of Peregrine falcons, so precedent has been set.
I usually avoid speaking bad of someone’s Special Other, but boo on her! Disney parades are boring, local parades are always different and entertaining in so many ways.
Scripted parades are also very nice, but not nearly as much fun. Mom took us kids to Pasadena a couple of years so we could help decorate the floats for the Rose Parade. She stopped the year we watched a couple of grown ups have total meltdowns over the wrong color of roses and destroy every single blossom they could get their hands on.
That was the last entertaining scripted parade I saw.
Oh, it is great! The tall wood fence isn’t because we don’t want people looking into our yard, it’s so that if a car drives by while I’m sitting in the yard, I don’t get light blinded. We don’t have Flagstaff quality dark, and the Phx glow grows on the horizon every year, but it is still dark even if we don’t drive to the other side of the ridge.
The amazing talent they seem to have is knowing just when the happy noise goes bad and suddenly comforting arms surround the upset little and the party goes on. Tis magic!
Oh it was terrible, their only other options were the people beds or recliners or loveseat or kitty trees, but I just HAD to be so mean!!!
GG is such a drama queen, LOL!
I give them each their own mylar wrapping sheet. That keeps them happy longer than the tissue paper I used to give them pre-mylar.
I had boy short hair since I was in my late 20’s. I had waist long blond hair until then just wanted a change. I took my Roxette CD to the hairdresser and pointed at Pers and told her that was what I wanted. I loved it and kept it short until I ended up in a cube again. Then it was too cold.
Short hair rocks, there are so many options. Long hair is like…long and just there.
IMHO.
It’s a hard job, but somebody’s got to do it!
I’m glad Monkey is enjoying his furry ball, boys and their balls can be super entertaining at times!
I had to got and look to be sure I hadn’t missed anything. I just love his commentary and imagination.
Thanks for the songs, sometimes I wonder what HPL would think about what has happened to his mythos. I’ve done enough geek research to think that he didn’t have much of a sense of humor, so might feel a little conflicted about his very serious screeds being made light of…but on the other hand, he is famous now which he really wanted when he was alive. Just maybe not this way.
Your GGrandma sounds like a delightful person, enjoy your memories
