Last Friday, I juggled flaming torches.
As if we’d notice. Confusion is the natural state of the MMP.
Also of the woman whose DH is recovering from a broken leg. Seriously, I am not getting enough sleep lately, and I pulled a fairly serious screwup at irk. No actual harm done, but was very not-good, and is something I would normally NEVER do (missed a piece of authenticating a caller).
Pictures? I’m glad you found the little one.
:dubious:
We had a birthday dinner for my mom today. It wasn’t as much as she deserves, but she seemed to like it.
Like it matters anyway - as if they’d come when called. They’re cats after all! Tho ours come a’runnin’ when we shake the container of treats!
It’s gonna be one of those days. First off, I had a tough time falling asleep, tho I think I finally drifted off before 11. Roxy started crying around 3:30 - she did calm pretty quickly, and I managed to fall back to sleep… til 4:06, when I got a text notifying me that my husband’s cell phone payment was made. Gotta change the notification threshhold on the credit card. :smack:
At that point, I knew it would be dumb to try to sleep again, since I get up at 5, so I pulled out my tablet and played a few brainless games. Round about 4:33, a car horn started blaring, as if someone was just holding the button down. It took 13 minutes for it to be silenced. I don’t know if I’d have heard it if the windows had be closed. Not that it matters much, since I was up anyway.
So, yeah, it’ll be one of *those *days. Happy Tuesday. 
Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffeinatin’. YAWN ‘Tis 68 Amurrkin out and clear with a predicted high of 99 and N.O.S. for the day. IOW still Summer in south Jawja. Today is laundry day. Rah. Also, the counter top folks called me yestiddy, an hour after they were supposed to show up, and asked to be re-scheduled for this mornin’. I said fine but I do expect it to get done today as I have other things scheduled for the rest of the week. Sup shall be boxed lasagna (don’t judge!), sallit, and cheesey garlic bread.
Now I need more caffeine and rumbly tummy wants sustenance. Then, onward into the day!
Happy Tuesday Y’all!
Trancephalic wins the MMP for doing Kitteh Rescue!
& you’ve now healed just enough to tell us about it now? :dubious:
Iffn one handed me a loaded gun right now I’d probably off myself; however if one handed me an unloaded gun & the bullets I wouldn’t bother as it would be too much effort; naw, i don’t feel too crappy today. 
I guess burning the candle at [del]three[/del] four ends has caught up with me.
Worst part is I’m trying to make it in for one meeting this afternoon…we’ll see if i last that long.
Sounds pretty normal to me 
It’s the start of weekend #1 this week; weekend #2 is the normal person weekend.
I should go start getting the bees ready for winter (knitting tiny coats) and go to the allotment as the forecast’s good, but I’m having a slight case of apathy. Tomorrow looks even nicer than today, and I know I’ll probably feel more like it then, but I should quit being lazy, really.
I’d get a second opinion, it sounds to me like the locksmith screwed up and did damage he shouldn’t have done.
Forget it Mooooomm; it’s Philly.
You are a good person. So why are you associating with us???
Deliberately or by accident?
We all mess up occasionally. Called life. Don’t let it bother you and get to bed early tonight.
Been there, worn myself out. Pace yourself, man, pace yourself: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iyv905Q2omU
OK, that exhausts my snark for the week.
Soccer practice Moanday went pretty well, will try the same drills with the girls tonight. Temps are back in the mid-90’s and no rain for the week. Oh joy.
Up, caffeinated, and sheveled. Off today. Going to watch hockey practice in a bit.
Best username/post combo of the threaqd.
Flyboy, Alex Catt came pre-named, but the last two cats I named were Lucretia D. HellCatt and Thrakazog.
Happy Toosday!
It’s a chilly morning.
Home from the park. Usually Ripple is ready to leave before I am, but today he wanted to stay and play.
However, I scheduled myself to irk more hours during the week since I am planning on not irking over the weekend.
We have to go get groceries today.
Other than that SSDD
Hey now, we have our faults but we are lovely animal people. Look at Nut knitting bee sweaters.
Yesterday it rained! :eek: I enjoyed the very brief appearance of free water, and the cooler temps and wind for the rest of the day. Today it will be 83F and N.O.S. After that we’re supposed to go back to low 90s during the days, and 60ish at night for the foreseeable future. sigh
For some reason I stayed up until 4:00. My brain was just running in circles. Hopefully I’ll get more unpacking done today. Being productive usually makes me feel less stressed.
Happy Toesday everyone!
Hey, hey, it’s Philly, not Chinatown (Though Philly does have a Chinatown)
I’ll raise you 347 Nut knitting bee sweaters & counter with one…FlyTrap.
::watches Sunny fold::
Yay for saving the kitten.
I got a new phone after my old one got washed in the washing machine. All my contacts and pictures came back. I could have just cried. I was sure I had lost everything. Yay Apple and Icloud.
back to irk.
Note to self: ensure beekeeping suit is fully closed up before opening hive. Ow. Luckily it was only one, and it decided to get me above the hairline, rather than somewhere serious (eye, up nose, in ear).
On the other hand, I did get some more honey out- this stuff’s suitable for cutting into chunks of comb, which I’ve not tried before (I normally set them up with ‘wired’ frames, which, as the name suggests, are reinforced with wire). They’ve got plenty and leaving it would have meant leaving an extra mostly empty box, which they’d then have to keep warm all winter, so it’s not being mean. Despite the views of certain bees.
Anyway, I should make dinner quick 'cos it’s beekeeping group tonight. I’d forgotten that was starting up again this week!
It was made clear in the light of the next day the wound on the kitten’s neck was worse than I thought. My folks sent it of to a rehabilitation sort of center to be nursed back to health, if such a thing is possible (it seems fine otherwise). It is friendly by cat standards, and it took little effort to coax it into approaching me, so it’ll make a good companion whoever it ends up with.
It won’t likely end up with my folks, as my mother is reluctant to take on more than a single cat, and the established one was hissing and moaning at it throigh the glass door partition. (She did take a pic of it before it was turned in; I’m trying to get her to email it to me)
I don’t even know if the apartment I’ve signed up for even accepts pets. And I don’t even know if I can justify whatever bills the poor thing incurred, though I’ll try.
I just hope it pulls through and lives a long happy life wherever it ends ups.
After some very poor sleep, I decided today is “take care of the caretaker” day and called out. More sleep helps a lot.
This morning before I left on the ol’ 115-mile commute, I cut an acorn squash in half and wrapped it in cling film. Mrs. L.A. asked me to last night, so she can bake it for dinner tonight.
If being bitchy was an Olympic sport, I’d be bringing home the gold medal today.
Everything and everybody is plucking my nerves.
I need to find out how to block text messages on my phone.
