Hello Wonderer. One more week and the daylight gets longer. It affects the mood for sure, and some more than others.

Hello Wonderer. One more week and the daylight gets longer. It affects the mood for sure, and some more than others.

And some years it doesn’t bother me at all. But this year it is for whatever reason.

Happy Tuesday!!!


Time for a coffee refill.

This year I know that not seeing my stepkids is making things worse. But I am surrounded by friends and that has helped fill the void. And I do see my daughter and son weekly.

Oh, good to know. A delicacy, then?

So, it's not a..., um..., well, nevermind!

Yes a delicacy and a good mouthful...well two actually. They have surprisingly meaty breasts!

So, it naturally causes one to wonder who's the father?

Hey, John! You seem new here. Let me give you the info ALL newbies to the thread get.

We conduct ourselves a bit differently than most other threads on Lit. We have 4 simple rules:
1. No politics
2. No religion
3. No drama
4. We don't hit on each other in the thread. Take that to the DMs. Not to say we don't have fun and throw out double entendres. We do. We're just not overt about it.

Take a look at the first post then perhaps go back and scan 10-20 pages to get the flavor of the place. We are like your friendly neighborhood bar. We're fiercely protective of our vibe and each other.

So, pull up a bar stool, have a drink, and see if you like it here. If you do, that's cool! Stay and play with us. If you don't, that's cool too. There are tons of other threads on Lit.

Thank you so much for the welcome. It’s very much appreciated. It is all good and glad to be here

Hang there we are here for you.

Good Morning everyone
Today is a much better day. Thanks for all the well wishes & prayers. It is greatly appreciated.
It's sunny here and the forecast temperatures looks good too so we're going out antiqueing in Greenville Ohio (a short drive) if Mrs Rj is up to it.
Talk later...

 

[BlackSatinKnight]

I hope your day was good, BSK!

It was a day, I’ll leave it there. Here’s hoping today is better. Thanks

 

[BlackSatinKnight]

Good morning everyone. I see I wasn’t the only member of the 3 AM club this morning. Here’s hoping that today is a better day than yesterday.

Hope you all age a great day and I’ll pop in as I get a chance. Y’all stay safe.

I used to pay about $150 for a delivered cord when I lived in my old house. That was 30+ years ago!

Ah the good old days

Coconut oils have natural trans fats. I will not use any coconut oil. Avacado oil is my go to as it has a high burn temperature. And it has no strong odor like Olive oil.

Coconut oil for massage.
Avacado oil is getting grouped with processed oils like grape and such. Bad news. Look for the article in the news. I saw it this week or the end of last. For high smoke point peanut was still ok.
I love good olive oil. I cook more Italian flavors than anything.
I missed the last train in Lyon one time. Oil and vinegar there are sold like fine wines. Learned a lot with that mistake.

There were some Swiss never-issued WW1-era Lugers that arrived to the market a few months ago. I have been keeping an eye on them for weeks and watching them disappear. They were priced kinda dearly. As they are nearly gone, I decided to go, but I took a look at what else was out there. This one is a German version from the same era. Good enough. Oh, and a chunk less expensive, too.

Some of those things are like the cars I drool over, I'll never afford one. It's a rich collectors market for a lot of that stuff!

Good luck today HDH.

Was wearing my first cav hat yesterday so popped it in there!

Thanks buddy! Hope your procedure went as well as mine!

The blood panel came back mostly good. Cholesterol a few points over what they like to see but the concern was my glucose was high…diet exercise…blah blah blah…. I get the CT scan mañana so that will be the big reveal. When I checked in they were like, it’s going to be a month…then he said, “oh, just had a cancelation!” I can’t believe I’ve been able to knock this stuff out before Christmas. Oh, and my PA was cute as a bug!

Your Fourth Day Christmas Z…

I don’t even recall the time change making a difference. I don’t remember getting much sleep in the army at all. Def remember long days and nights, that’s for sure.

I don’t really care what time they keep it to. Whether it’s lighter longer or making earlier. Just stop it with the changing clocks. His time of year is rough for me any way you Slice it. These short days fuck me up. They start getting longer next week.

Yep same way it feels in the summer when the days start getting shorter. The season is over before it started.
When I moved down here to Virginia I was shocked at the difference in day light in winter. Our days are close to 30 minutes longer than NJ.
I’m a weird one and like it to get dark early in the cooler months. The hour change is simple to trick for me. I just go to bed the night before the change so I wake up on new time the same time I would any other day. If I wake up early or late going to sleep an hour earlier usually does the trick.
So far sleep is good for me. I attribute it to when I was young. My parents made us go to sleep early. Like 730 early still light in summer time. We were never ever sent to our rooms for punishment. You bedroom was only a place for good things and sleep. Now being off two years I sleep when body says sleep which is usually between 9 and 10. Wake up anywhere from 630 to 11. When I go back to work I am going to miss getting up when my body clicks on.
I will also say since last year when i quit drinking coffee, I feel like I sleep even better. I have less headaches too.
