Have I ever mentioned that my office is as cold as a meat locker?? The HVAC in this building is out of balance, mostly because people keep closing their vents because they’re cold. I keep a cardigan in my desk, and today, it’s not enough. Maybe I should bring in a hoodie… and gloves… and a nose warmer…
Three more hours till my weekend. <headdesk>
The dogs are playing on my feet. 100 lbs for one and 70 or so for the other. I, of course, think they’re too cute to stop them. 
It’s good to see the older one have so much fun.
Today’s assignment - figure out dinner. I also should go to the pharmacy.
Even though it is wet and icky outside, we are going to the dog park.
Shouldn’t be anybody there, so Ripple will be bored, but he is bugging me to go.
All the laundry is washed, except for the sheets, but they can wait.
One load is dry, everything else is on the drying rack.
I only put my shirts in the dryer because I need a clean one.
I should be doing more house irk.
Couple days off, weekend ------ I am reduced to watching TV. Darn all this rain we’re getting now.
Supper was good - teriyaki poke chops, steamed rice, Amish green beans-n-onions. Yum.
It’s raining again. rah.
Chillage shall ensue. **FCD **and I have a breakfast date for the morning, then we need to buy a new lock set for the basement door. Envy my exciting life!
sunny, my parents had a sixties era Airstream that we kept in the driveway as an extra bedroom. As a single person with a small dog, I think I could live in a trailer like that one here in the midsouth. BTW, how is your blind pupper adapting?
Yay BLUES!
The old bat was PO’d at everybody today. She even tried to pick a fight with the nicest guy in the department. :eek: Fortunately, the boss cut her short. Glad that tomorrow is Friday. Tonight, it’s playing in the studio.
This time tomorrow can’t come soon enough to suit me. So very tired, aggravated, stressed and bummed. Just those old summertime blues.
…and we all know, there ain’t no cure for the summertime blues…https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MeWC59FJqGc
Hope you get a break, Butters
Sari, if you want to do some more housework, my place is available and needs some attention… 
:p;)
FCM, I keep my house about 77F; partly to save on utilities bills and partly because I (being single) tend to be…lax…when it comes to proper dress. Stay warm.
Not much accomplished, watched some of the US Open on TV (I’ll watch the golf major tournaments, but not the weekly fare). Found out not having a cellphone means I have to visit the bank personally regarding being out of town, since I can’t receive a text (and yes, I’m a damn Luddite when it comes to some tech).
Dinner having been consumed, internettin’ will occupy the balance of the evening.
I got into a teen’s pants today!
Pulled the kid’s shorts outta the dryer - Hey, I was that waist size in HS & I’m not much bigger now. Yup, I put them on & was even able to button & zip them w/o issue but the stoopit ‘skinny’ cut meant I didn’t try squatting down in them.
'splain this please. Why can’t you just call them & say I’ll be using my card in non-home areas for the next week?
I thought that previously you mentioned, “31 F. Certain unclaimed body parts.”
:dubious:
But would it surprise you to learn I have friends who live on Rudd Road? But they were with me the whole time; honest!
Worked, came home. And the first Championship for Toronto in 51 years goes to… the Raptors of the NBA.:dubious:
Considering that Launchpad ended up working for Drake Mallard, two of the 3 series are in the same universe for sure.
Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffeinatin’. YAWN ‘Tis 62 Amurrkin out and clear (dark, actually), with a predicted high of 88 and N.O.S. for the day. I shall accomplish mowage this mornin’ and then who knows what beyond that. No reason I have to leave da cave today, so no plans at all to be about the public. YAY! Sup shall be majik intartoobz pizza and sallit, cause sallit makes it healthy.
MetalMouse Summertime Blues is one of my favorite all time songs! A classic!
Now I need more caffeine and rumbly tummy demands sustenance. Then, onward into the day. Rah.
Happy Firday Y’all!
its been an obnoxious 2 or 3 days here …cousin showed her ass as much as she possibly could…the front door know of the house was busted so they decided to take the door off only to find out they didn’t need to …the gas company refit some things here a few years ago to elp keep it warm so the door is solid particleboard and weights a good 60 pounds and i was supposed to be able to lift it up to put the pins back in the hinges… yeah had to get help on that one…
still waiting to see if the waterline on the swamp cooler is working …its about 110 during the day and 75-90 at night oh and did i mention we didn’t get our mid-week break because nephew/grandsons dad had meetings on his day off? if i could get away with it id find a nice bottle of the 100-110 proof Russian fire water chilled just to almost frozen and pass out for a day or two… yays and boos for thr good/bad for all and thank the b-ball gods Toronto won cause we were sick of the warriors …"(im in laker country )
imma sleep for about 4 hours…
Happy Firday!
It’s a chilly 59 degrees outside, supposed to get up to 75.
Then it gets hot again.
Supposed to stay cloudy this morning and then the sun comes out.
I woke up too early, 5am. I didn’t get to bed until almost midnight, so I will be needing a nap later on.
MetalMouse, I don’t WANT to do house irk, I NEED to do house irk.
I have been a bit lax around here and it’s starting to get on my nerves.
Clutter makes me grumpy.
So is the yard. I looked up the weeds that are growing out there and it is the broad leaf plantain that is taking over. They are supposed to be edible, and good for you, which is all very nice, but I still want them gone. I also found out the the wild strawberries are actually mock strawberries. Both are edible, but the mock strawberries are supposed to taste nasty. Since I don’t like strawberries, I wasn’t going to eat them anyway.
The problem with sowing wild flower seed is, I have all kinds of stuff coming up, and I have no idea what any of it is. I’m pulling out everything I know for sure is a weed and letting the rest go.
FtGKid2 sent out a “Hey mom …” via sat phone from the top of Denali yesterday evening.
3 days before Father’s Day.
Oh how I wish that were true, for I too would like to forget Joe Carter in ‘93! 
Sari’s gonna be fightin’ the rabbits & woodchucks for breakfast. 
I did call the -800 number, but they said they needed to send me a text message to make it happen, and when I said I didn’t have a cellphone, they were stumped and told me I needed to go to the Bank. Since I have to be out and about anyway today, I’ll do that thing, but suspect they’ll be just as confused. Joys of modern life.
Up at 6am so nappage is very likely.
shady, I don’t always completely understand what’s going on, but you do lead and interesting life…
ftg, great news on the kid; now as long as he messages when he gets back down…
spidey, doubt I could get into anything I wore back in High School…
Have a good Firday all y’all.
Howdy Y’all! Mowage is completed and I am all showered and cleanded up. Time to chillax. Life is good right now. Oh and sup shall not be majik intartoobz pizza. I remembered right after I posted that tonight is the farewell Fiesta (OLÈ!) for our organist and his spouse as they will be leavin’ us cause he (organist) is goin’ to seminary to become a Priest. Sunday is their official last day with us.
Last time I tried I could still fit into my old school uniform- not that I’m thin now, but I was fat at school 
Irked, thinking I should head down the shops shortly, 'cos I’m out of bread for a sandwich for work lunch tomorrow. I could make something else, I suppose, but a sandwich is about my culinary limit when I’m getting ready for irk. I have never been one of nature’s morning people. Right now, I’m not a night person either, rather a sometime-around-2pm-for-half-an-hour person, which is not very efficient. I think my energy levels are going up, at least; I had a whole bunch of things I wanted to do before the schools break up for summer and everywhere round here clogs up with tourists, and I’ve not done any of them yet due to being too tired.
