James left me his well-thumbed copy. It will be a while before I can read it, the letters keep blurring now.
Not the best start of the day. Poor you and poor Annie.
We’ve never had any close calls with cats and fire, but that could be because we do not have open flames in the house. Cats are jerks, I don’t need one to burn our house down to remind me.
The new battery operated candles are pretty realistic, you can get them with flickering flames and a wax coating. I have a note on my calendar to check the batteries and charges when the time changes so that’s coming up soon.
The car wash we used to use in AZ was fully automated but still had an attendant at the front to help people reach the card slot on the machine. And watch the tip jar, of course.
All of the car washes around here are no contact and I rarely see anyone there at all. I’d rather have the car washes with the brushes, I think they do a better job. I do like the option to have the undercarriage power washed, though. The roads get salted and that’s not great for sheet metal.
Lucky, how’s your Dahlia doing? I still have one flower and a couple of buds, but it has been warm still. And how do you pronounce dahlia? They didn’t grow in AZ, so I never had the opportunity to talk to people about them. I know a whole lot more words than I can pronounce (or spell), so I have been saying da-li-la, like the song. Hubs told me today that it is pronounced dA-la.
First you have to figure out what you really want out of this. If you want him to go away, be blunt. If you want a FWB, be blunt about that too. Scheduled whoopy times only, no just dropping by. I know you used to maybe hope for something different, but sometimes you just want a warm body in bed with you.
Hubs and I shared a taste spoon and just that little bit turned our lips black for the rest of the day, I can’t imagine what eating a whole cup would do.
While I hate to think of people ending up homeless, I do hope management is able to do something about all the noise. You pay good money to sleep undisturbed, its not right that someone is taking your peace away from you.
I hope you get some good news from the scan.
Thanks for being nice about it, but that’s a whole lot of dirty laundry to have piled up for just two people. My twice yearly tradition of washing all of the bedding including pads and blankets is only three loads.
What will you do with the leftovers? We didn’t get trick or treaters in AZ but I would always buy a few bags and then take everything to work the next day.
Hubs went to Walgreens yesterday and it was closed! They had a sign saying that the systems were down and no idea when they would open again. I didn’t see anything about a cyberattack, but it could have gotten missed in the daily avalanche.
That’s how I felt at times today. It was so beautiful that it seemed almost unreal.
AZ falls were beautiful as well, but it was a quiet, subtle sort of change. WV is loud and in your face and I just love it.
I do wish we lived in a first world country with first world concepts like universal health care. The idea that you have to beg for doctor ordered medications just isn’t right.
Best of luck to you, I really hope you don’t have to keep calling.
I’ve heard that even the retail job market is in the dumps right now. I really hope you find something soon, your pointy nosed cats need their treats!
NOOO! Don’t put the dino head in the dumpster, take it to a corner across from a high school and leave it there instead. I promise it will be gone by morning.
So as mentioned earlier, we went out to look at leaves today. We went south and holy cow, the colors were amazing. We ended up driving around in Kentucky for an hour before stopping for a late lunch and then coming home a different way.
Back when I was growing up in S. CA, Disneyland was new and fairly inexpensive, so mom would take the four of us kids four or five times a year. The roads through the fall forest seems so much like an E-ticket ride, amazing colors with twisty-turns to open up to new beauty.
While we were going through the towns, some of the decorated houses had so many Halloween decorations that they must have had a storage shed just for the season. There were a lot of those blow up things and giant skeletons but mothman was pretty popular as well.
We also noticed that they had started putting up the lights at the state park. They have to start early, it is 7 miles of lights and done totally by volunteers.
Ugh. I never paid attention to school hours before we moved here. Before we could avoid the buses by taking a different route, here there are no different routes so unless we want to spend an hour backtracking, we follow the bus and whine.
