Whew, 30 pages of background reading done. Good thing I like coffee and cats and dogs.

Ok ok I'll cut back on the coffee memes.

 

[Lonestar79]

I love coffee. Everyone else likes that I love coffee because I don't kill them.

Bean addicts!!

My addiction has saved lives Rick. As grotesque as my addiction is it has saved lives! You go obout your days oblivious to my addiction. But it's saved lives.... ( Picking up a phone book, searching for a therapist)....lol

 

[Wonderer67]

NOT !!!!!

Whew!

I was just going to reply and tell you to please keep up with the coffee memes. It’s the mental coffee before I get the actual real thing!!

Is it just me or do people not read all of the words? Go back there Stanley and sound it out....come on lad, your confusion is bound to dissipate if you just read .. every ...#$@&in word I took time to write. #wish it was just the kid at the drive through ...... De-evolution is real!

It’s good night to most but good morning from me.

I have a fun busy day. A few moths ago one of our friends in the next village said her ten year old daughter was mad keen on going fishing. I promised to take her through the school holidays and today is the day. We will go to a commercial fishery where there are lots of different ponds. It’s a place you are guaranteed to catch and everything is released. I have collected a little of my old gear and some stuff that has been donated so she will have her own pole and reel plus hooks and bits if she wants to go again.

I have done this for a few kids and the look on their face when they catch is just amazing. So folks keep your fingers crossed for a fishy bonanza. Even the weather is looking like it will stay fine.

Ditto to all the wonderful and well-spoken responses from all the other café denizens! @Greylag

Sometimes, my best boundary is to walk away.

I'm going to look at a new apartment today

Wishing you all the best in your search, RJ

I got a stuffy that had a heartbeat and a pad that u could heat up in the microwave to cuddle with....... BUT had to take it away when he started to rip it apart......

That's part of the Pro Tip in #2:
Pro-tip: Dog Appeasing Pheromone (DAP) collars and diffusers release a calming pheromone (a synthetic version of the hormone released by a nursing mother dog) that can also help soothe your puppy. Toys that emit a “heartbeat” can also help get your puppy to sleep.

I don't want to waste all my energy in chasing him, I need it for when I catch him!

#priorities

I am gonna work and at 2 going to salon for some self care..... trying to be a little kinder to myself.... lawn looks great... the flower beds look awful. I have called several places and no one calls back or comes.... I am not able to do right now and need help.... guess I will go and do inches at a time...... will get done eventually

self-care is health-care...

Too bad you weren’t local. Mrs wonderer is a gardener and could make the flower beds look great pretty quickly.

Or she’d just send her lackey (me) to do the hard work!

It may even be less work than you think. What needs to be done?

There you go... crowdfund "shortcuts to prettier flower beds"
Not sure if there's any agriculture schools, programs, clubs near her small village... maybe someone needs an independent project for credit or fun???

Reason number one…

(book - IDK if it's been adapted into a movie or not)

My wife and I went back to Texas last September and I forgot how awful hot it is even an early September.

I visited a friend in TX over Labor Day years ago
Friend: Let's go for a walk
Me: *slathers on SPF70 sunscreen* okay
7 min later
Me: I need to go back inside; I can feel my skin burning
Friend: *expression that says "BS"* okay
Friend 20 min later: Wow, you are a rosy shade of pink... everywhere the sun hit you

I am having some health stuff that should abate soon soon

take care, Missk!! Hope it resolves soon, soon, soon!

Ok ok I'll cut back on the coffee memes.

Thank you!!! I have come up (now) with a Two Year Plan. Not as long as Stalin's Five Year Plan but it should do when I want/need for it to.


Delayed but not derailed.

Great today. My friends daughter did really well. I got her about 12 fish which we returned. It was a little slow but she enjoyed it. I have pulled together enough kit for her to go on her own….well with her Mom on Sunday so mission accomplished!

Mostly Bream and a few roach. Biggest was about 2lb.
