Oh man, I haven’t had one of those since the 80’s. Now I want a Tequila Sunrise!
Yeah, about that. I didn’t like the french knots so picked them all out and did cross stitches instead.
This is why I don’t even consider designing my own patterns, it’s taken a week just to figure out some small accents.
So…you are almost management? Nice!
I’m glad you are feeling better and hope the game doesn’t kick your butt.
I’m sure that would not have been good for your shoulders, you made the right choice!
Do you have to pee? Did you know that when we are awake and upright, our feet and legs swell during the day because it is so hard for your heart to pump the excess water up to your kidneys. Once you lay down for a while, your heart gets a break and pumps all the water out of your feet and legs and then you wake up because you have to pee. Or at least that’s how it works for me.
Sorry that everyone got sick, I hope they recover without giving it to you.
No baffles. Despite their reputation, the first waterbeds were not good sex beds. If you got out of sync with the waves important things could get bent and if you went with the waves, someone was guaranteed to hit bottom at the wrong time.
Many burn units still use waterbeds for burn victims because of the gentle support.
I hope you were able to walk into one store and find everything you needed so you don’t have to go to other stores.
That used to infuriate me at our last place. I would watch them stop at the stop sign and just fling things into our yard before driving away. Every so often, I would recognize the vehicle and would clean up all of the trash from our culverts and take it to their yard and throw it over their fence.
I used to helpfully return old yard sale signs that had addresses as well. I am not a nice person.
Infuriating.
He’s a deep sleeper!
So how do the official sites measure snow? I’ve been lucky enough to see lots of snow this winter and it moves and blows around and melts while falling. This is all very confusing to me.
Who’s the boss? George is 20 lbs and Jolene is 9. Jolene tells George how his day will be and he just purrs and gives her ear washes.
I am so sorry. It is heartbreaking to watch someone you love turn into a stranger.
That’s why I started campaigning for the Pres in Charge of Vice to run for Leader of the Pack and then bribed people to vote for him. Not only did we have to set up local charity runs, we were in charge of organizing the yearly visit to the Wounded Warrior barracks in San Diego. That included motel rooms and a visit to a USMC graduation ceremony.
I found a motel that would reserve an entire wing, parking lot and picnic/bbq area for us. That was great, they were smart enough to quarantine us scary and loud bikers away from their regular customers. The morning we were saddling up to ride home, we would do the usual morning briefing and I would always ask if they had remembered to tip the maids. Blank looks. “The women who are going to be cleaning up the toilets after your scuzzy asses shit in them all weekend.” Most of them would look at me like I had solved the mystery of 42, then would run back to their rooms to leave money.
Of course they loved us at the base, all of those old Marines going home for a visit and bringing money. We got reserved seats for the ceremonies and tours by handsome young men who tried their best to tell men older than them about the base they had been trained at.
I always took pity on the poor guide when they took off like a clowder of feral cats and would tell him to just walk. Keep walking, I will listen and they’ll come back when they get hungry.
It was so much fun, but SO much work that I thought that five years was enough. Your brother had much more patience than me!
At least I was spared waking up in water like the last time. I blame the manufacturer for this upset, we’ve only had one other mattress split the seam, but that mattress was over ten years old and had moved house twice.
Heating waterbeds is expensive, so we stopped doing that at least 20 years ago. They make warm and cool thermal mattress pads so you can change them out as needed.
Oh my goodness, consider yourself to be very lucky you weren’t a Mumper when that was happening. I was all “Oh, look at our cute lil kitty, so sweet and cuddly!” to “OMFG!!! This cat is in heat, FML!!!” overnight. The whining was intense, LOL!
Every so often even the best vet makes a mistake. Jolene was a shelter cat who went to their vet to be spayed. That vet had been doing low cost s/n for the shelter for decades, she knew what she was doing, I have no bad words to say about her.
She missed a little bit of ovarian tissue and Jolene ended up with Ovarian Remnant Syndrome. This is pretty uncommon, but not unheard of.
There is a rather expensive test (300 bucks) for cats so of course the shelter and the vet wanted to wait and be sure that Jolene really was displaying all of the symptoms before moving forward and re-spaying her.
During that time, poor George was so confused and we couldn’t take the constant displaying and calling, so we paid for the bloodwork and Jolene got spayed a second time.
Ya know those dinky lil incisions most cats come home with? Her’s was three inches long because the vet had to be able to get her hand in there and really dig around.
She recovered quickly and turned back into the queen of the house.
And I know for a fact that they always got extra because you are the sort who wants to finish what you are doing despite what the clock says.
I’m sorry she is still feeling so poorly, losing a beloved pet can be overwhelming.
Didn’t your mom ever tell you that you don’t have to jump off a cliff just because all of your friends are. Stop doing that!
Hubs used to just toss his socks and unders in the general direction of the hamper. I refused to pick them up and would just leave them there until he picked them up when he did his laundry.
Then BubbaCat thought that peeing on Dad’s stinky socks was a great idea. They were in his bathroom, so again, I just left them there. That laundry day was the last time he left his clothes on the floor for the cat to use as a litterbox.
That’s great. I know I keep telling folks to drink water, but that’s only because being dehydrated is not good for anyone and I do care.
I can certainly see why he would like it there, warm and soft and smells like his hoomans. Plus the quilt shows his fur off wonderfully!
Thank you for the pic
