Here’s hoping you are still with the living, and hopefully painfree.
I know the feeling. 
One of our cats was toothless. He’d gum down his kibbles like a champ, despite me trying to tempt him with gooshy fud.
I am very glad to hear it. UTI’s are so upsetting, poor kitties don’t understand why it hurts to pee so often will blame the box and try other places to see if it doesn’t hurt there.
We have a Lowe’s the next town over. As I had to drive past the lobster roll place to get there, I stopped in and had lobster for breakfast. I felt very decadent.
Yesterday I had breakfast at Tudor’s House of Biscuits which was pretty tasty and not really sweet at all. That’s something that has changed over the years. All of the food in WV used to have sugar in one form or another added and we didn’t really like to eat out because of that. Of course we didn’t like eating at his folk’s place because MIL cooked everything to mush before adding sugar to it so we usually lost a few pounds every visit. (I’d sure give a whole lot to eat some more of MIL’s horrible food, it’s been almost ten years and I still have the impulse to call her about something neat I just saw or did.)
SNERT!!!
Nice! I hope the rest of your evening goes well.
Oh yes, it is to be expected, things happen even if you are moving into a brand new building.
Unless it was the house that was specially built for me. I made it a habit to leave work at lunch but usually just parked under a handy tree and ate my lunch in the car while reading and smoking. One job was close to a housing development that had established trees and hunky and scantily dressed workmen bending and flexing and sweating and OH MY!
It was my fav place to eat and I sometimes brought friends for the view.
One day the foreman came to my car and invited me in to see my house. They had noticed me watching at least three times a week and assumed that the house I was looking at was the one I had put a bid on and wanted to show off how careful they had been to make it just perfect. I took the tour and dutifully admired every detail, thanked them profusely and never had lunch there again.
Of course!!! Did you expect anything less, LOL!
That’s something to ponder while I sit on the porch and stare mesmerized at the forest. Ya know how sometimes you get so stoned that you forget to light your pipe? The forest does that to me, I just sit there with my pipe and lighter in my hands and stare into the woods while they stare back.
Considering the problems you had with your last Big Thing, you might want to pick a Medium Thing this time, LOL!
Our fridge got here today and while Hub’s measured the hole, he forgot to measure the arch it needed to go through. Oopsie. They had to bring it in through the back door instead and that involved three steps up. I offered them both a pre-roll as a tip and learned that Lowe’s does drug testing in West Virginy. They each got ten bucks instead.
Hubs is the one who picked out the fridge (with my input, of course) so I didn’t know that it was going to have a Good Ice setting until it got here. It took foreeeeever before enough ice had frozen to try it out and I am just loving it.
George has been pretty patient though all the workmen, the pounding and tile drilling and furniture moving. He retreats into the room we are sleeping in and hides under the bed but comes out when he hears everyone leave. Today the fridge was delivered and installed, then our housekeeper came in for a couple of hours to work on the very dusty plaster ceilings. He spent most of the morning in his safe room.
GG found a rubber band that had gotten dropped on the floor and tossed it around a few times, then put his foot on it and stretched it out with his mouth. When it snapped his toes, that was the last straw. He has now moved into his safe room for the rest of his life, this place just isn’t safe.
He came out to use the litter box, but snubbed his dinner and went right back to his room and curled up on the bed again.
Most smart phones have voice to text and text to voice options nowadays. Maybe spend some time looking around in your settings and see if you can find a workaround for next time.
I really did think you were smarter than this!
Now that’s a part time job I could do!
No risk, no glory!
I’m sorry your work is so stoopid. Sadly, it usually is no matter where you work.
I wonder if this is just normal Brown incompetence, or Carol’s Machiavellian scheme to weasel out of paying severance to some of the 12K managers and support staff they are sacking. But I did my Senior Day shopping at Teeter, and got coffee and 4 cases of beer to go with yesterday’s gin and chicken.
