I’ve got the builder hands like your bro, **pilot.** The other day I was putting things away after an install, and a microfibre cloth stuck to my hand like velcro. But I’m still always very careful when using zip knives or box cutters. I have sliced myself waaay too many times with those things. ---

> [@Kitten\_Mitten](#): > > Hubs was walking around almost like normal this morning; whatever they injected before his bone marrow biopsy yesterday worked well and hasn’t worn off yet. Went to work and when I returned, he was using the cane again. I am so sad for him. And for you. Good thoughts keep coming. > [@Baker](#): > > To all Dopers out there, if I ever can come eat your cooking I’ll do the dishes. You will NOT wash dishes in my kitchen! That’s what we have a dishwasher for. You are also not going to put stuff away because you have no idea of where we keep stuff. You will just sit at the table and sample cheese and beer and mead while admiring our cats. GG might take a few minutes to warm up to you, but once he’s sure you aren’t a cat eating monster, he will be begging for scritches cause we never pay any attention to the poor neglected kittah. I was doing a nostalgia run through Diablo the first when my mouse died in mid battle. Of course bad words happened and I put a new battery in the mouse. That didn’t work so we did other things and concluded that it was well and truly dead. Hubs had a spare corded gaming mouse which feels so very strange. I went to the jungle to past orders and found the mouse I had been using since 2018 and ordered a new one cause why mess with success. I sure do hope the mouse I get next week is the same quality as the old one. ---

> [@nightshadea](#): > > I’ve been playing the first Diablo again and wow it’s a blast from the past Isn’t it! I remember playing over our phone line, and oh gawd, the lag I would put up with just to kill another skeleton. Look for me in 4. I paid for the early access so I can get the names I want. Look for Lavinia Whateley (nekro) or Sonia Greene (wizard). I hope your move smooths out somewhat…but moving always sucks, so I guess I should wish you much luck in not ripping all of your hair out. ---

That is so sweet of you to offer, but mostly I play Diablo for the continuality now. It is entertaining for a while then the call of needle and thread is too loud. I was online the same month D1 came out, so was able to enjoy the good times. D2 was pretty tedious in single player mode, but the end graphics were pretty impressive for the time. Have you downloaded Diablo Immortal? I don’t remember paying for that one. It’s not really diablo, kinda sorta, it’s more team and clan focused. ---

I just cut myself an extravagant bouquet of lilacs from some feral bushes growing by the nearby highway. (I’ll have to post pics.) Who could hate on lilacs? Apply for an exception! Oh, and I luuuurve the hair, **Fishie**!! Lovely color. * * * Well, some asshole called in a fairly big order (a large multi topping pizza, garlic cheesy bread, and a dozen wings) and stuck us with it. My manager was so peeved, she gave the wings to the last customer of the night for free, and I took home the garlic cheese bread. We chucked their pizza into the damn trash. I’m nearly too tired to eat, but at minimum, at least First Breakfast is sorted if I simply crash first. For now, part of a joint while Monkey purrs in my lap. And on my shoulders. And by my feet. ---

From a look outside, we got a bit of rain overnight, which this county has needed! The corn is already coming up and it’s thirsty!! After I finish my morning slothfest, I need to deal with the mess that the basement has become. Daughter is to text me when the kids have lunch, and I’ll fetch them for a trek to the Marine Museum before coming back here to destroy the basement again! **FCD** will be working in his shop, making a support bracket for the boat. And if he gets it done, he’ll be installing it this afternoon. So another exciting day at FairyChatEstates! A day that begins with me breaking a nail, dammit. I need to find my nail clippers before the stoopit thing gets worse. All righty then, Happy Sunday. ---

Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffeinatin’. _YAWN_ ‘Tis 71 Amurrkin out and partly cloudy with a predicted high of 86 and partly N.O.S. for the day. The big plan of the day is deheathenization followed by a trip to the Pubic sto’ to procure fried chikin plates which we will bring to da cave to consume. This will take care of the main need to feed for the day. The usual sloth and general overall uselessness will occupy the rest of the day. **shades** movin’ is always a PITA. Here’s hopin’ everyone settles down and y’all find a place to move to soonest. **shoe** that sucks about the order that had to go to waste, but hey free garlic cheese bread! Now I need more caffeine and to feed rumbly tummy. Then, purtification for deheathenization must commence. Happy Sunday Y’all! ---

Morning all. Up nice and early today, nothing much on the agenda except dining out (Texas Roadhouse is on the list) and they are having a party for the coaches I’ll probably go to this afternoon. It’s due to get to 80F and almost no chance of rain, so that is good. Might even get to the gym. **Shady** , hope the home thing gets worked out soon. OK, need to finish waking up and be about the day. Happy Sunday all. ---

Afternoon, mumpers! It’s 17c/62f with a predicted high of 19c/66f and mostly cloudy. Weather app must be looking the wrong way because it’s bright and shiny outside but it tells me “It is overcast and fucking shitty outside”…err…not from where I’m sitting! We went to our local rock pub last night to see a couple of bands, much fun was had, several adult beerverages ensued, and an entertaining natter with the headline band’s singer who is a jolly nice chap. Hung around for a while afterwards then walked back home and watched the rest of the film 'im indoors started watching the night before but didn’t finish because he fell asleep. Got up late this morning, tended to the little Void and have laundry doing its thing in the machine. There’s another load waiting after that, and it’s a good enough day to put it all outside to dry. I made us each a cup of tea without any mishaps, but he’s still snoring so I drank both of 'em. When he finally surfaces, I need to run the roll-suck around the house and then I shall retire to the sofa for an afternoon of slothage until I have to stir my stumps and make dinner later. More tea, Vicar! ---

**VanGo** , IKR on the velcro hands. In winter, mine will get that bad from playing with paper at home and handling cardboard and paper at irk. I don’t envy you the moving **shady**. The longer that you’ve lived in a place, the harder it is to pack things up. Up, caffeinating, breakfasted and fixing to do Sunday chores. Not a lot shaking at CasaRoja.

Good morning everyone. It’s 55 degrees and cloudy outside. The expected high is 65 and it will remain cloudy all day. The weather turned out quite lovely yesterday, and I got a lot of work done outside. On the inside, not so much. I was too tired, stiff and sore when I came in yesterday. So, I will finish my coffee and finish inside chores in just a bit. The kids and grandkids will be here around noon, so I have another busy day ahead of me. I need to put out the sprinkler this morning too. The grass is already starting to look thirsty. My husband also changed the blade on the lawnmower yesterday, so the grass received a proper haircut. The blade change is long overdue. I’m glad it finally got done. Well, need to finish the coffee and get my day started.
