Moooooooom, I love cone flowers and black eyed Susans along with all kind of daisies. They tend to be my favorite flowers and if I ever get back to gardening in the ground, I’ll plant some.
Got the Sunday chores out of the say, picked up the scrips, exchanged the CO2 cartridge and am eating a really good bowl of beef and barley stew. I’ll fart around online some more before switching to farting around in the studio.
Wow, man. That sucks. Like, sucks great big ol’ donkey balls. You’re a good man, of course, for taking your error back onto yourself & not trying to foist your mistakes onto others, though.
Me? Meh, not much. I have successfully achieved another day of selling pot to the locals (and not-so-locals) and am attempting to arrange for some sort of dinner. There’s a very good chance imma call in a to-go order for something overpriced but delicious.
I think I deserve it, because when I got home off work in a fit of unexpected energy, I:
Dumped and refilled the main litter box
Rolled the biiiiiiiiiiiiig trash bin to the curb
Shook out three floor rugs & my bath mat
Replied to a text I didn’t wanna deal with
Wow. I felt like I’d done way more, until I wrote it out. { sigh }
Considering I bought the seat 30 years ago, I still made a profit. I should have taken a deposit from the guy in Vancouver, BC, ended the auction, and waited until the border opened. Live and learn.
‘Equis-Eh-Teh-Erre-Ah, Tijuana, Mexico.’
I had salad for dinner – with pieces of fried chicken breast, slices of avocado, chunks of blue cheese, and diced tomato. As a native Californian, I love avocados. I thought to myself, 'Man, I’d like to be sitting on a beach eating avocados and grilled fish, with some alcohol. This reminded me of Baja California, which reminded me of growing up in San Diego, and watching XETV, call sign XTRA. Funny, how my mind wanders.
If you are in the Deathpool you may have seen an entry I made there. Last Thursday I fell and broke my hip. Just this afternoon I was released from the hospital and will spend some time recovering with a family member. My own place has a LONG set of steps that I can’t manage for a while. So I’ll do therapy here and try to keep up with the Dope, although I won’t be able to total points in the DP until I go to my own home and get the document I keep to total names and points.
This hurts like heck but it was a simple pinning job and not a hip replacement. I get tired more easily but I’ll live If you pray can I have one? lol
{{{Baker}}} (but gently). That well and truly sucks. Hope it all heals well.
flyboy, did you see if the US Mail would ship it? They may have lower costs (of course, they might not take such a monster as posts). Still, if you’re satisfied with the deal, good enough.
FCM, hope the Drs. appointment goes well for FCD. And happy computer-moving
nellie, is Apple going to give you a replacement or at least a refund–seems 5 months isn’t that long…
nettie, glad the tire replacement didn’t bust the budget.
Also dined at Longhorn, ordered an 8oz sirloin and only got a 6oz, but since I eat too much anyway I didn’t fuss about it–and they only charged for the 6oz anyway. Then watched a youth soccer game (just spectating) and napped as the Masters golf wasn’t too exciting. Sammiches for dinner and the last load of laundry are both mission complete, so just some readin’ and internettin’ tonight.
All y’all take care and I’ll catch you on the next MMP.
Well, yup. Local joint about 15 mins away with lovely Thai lettuce cups, and - because that’s just rabbit food, albeit delicious rabbit food, and lacks any stick to your ribness - a big ol’ half pound cheeseburger.
Which, if you’d seen what I’ve “eaten” the past few weeks, is a veritable mountain of food.
I’m a solid halfway through the burger, though, and intend to plow through a bit more once I finish this little digestive break with you nice folks.
Watching a Netflix documentary about fancy birds being fancy (called “Dancing With The Birds”) and am finding it thoroughly watchable after every other offering irritated me - too dumb, all of it, just dumb, dumb, dumb.
Blowing through my stimulus money like a drunken sailor (oh, not really, but … it’s “fun” to beat myself up about it) and have reached out to the pair of nice ladies who did such a nice job cleaning my home for me right around NY Eve.
Wow, that was four months ago. Okay, I’ll quit beating myself up about that little splurge. They should be here next week, on my first upcoming Blessed Day Off.
Finishing my food (and birdie documentary) and will see all y’all in the next MMP. Good night.
oh wow, i hope you do get better … I’ve been wondering if you found another place of employment or if you still worked for the place that was sold in the library …
flyboy I’ve done the same thing with eBay shipping costs. I sold something once that cost more to ship than I sold it for.
Moommm I’m sorry about FCD’s falls and knee issues. I hope the doctor has good news.
Boo I think you missed an opportunity with G-r-Us.
Tomorrow I head to the hospital with 'Beamette. I am staying at a hotel in the area, instead of overnight on furniture that hell rejected for being too uncomfortable.
Baker - I hope you get better. Broken hips SUCK. Just remember - do your PT exercises, no matter how much they hurt. Better to have some discomfort now, than not being able to walk later. Please don’t be like my wife’s grandmother.
This. It may not seem like it at first but PT is your friend. It’s ok to grumble and groan at first when doing your exercises, we all did. Be sure to reward yourself every time you finish-a cup of special coffee, a glass of adult beverage, a treat to give a furry morale officer (where you’re staying has those I hope), extra time hanging out on the Dope.
