The 50 Plus Cafe, Pub, All-Nite Greasy Spoon and Dive Bar

quick catch up and then a bunch of errands
My spirit animal! My Goddess got one last time I was home, to keep Her company while I'm away. 🤣😍View attachment 2580902
Sloths are the (unofficial??) mascot of those with Gastroparesis (slow GI systems), too.
No and I feel the same way. Actually it’s ice and sleet that scares me.
That's a healthy fear to have IMO
What are you trying to say, there'll be no "naked snow-angels" in your yard? 🤣
Oh, to have a private yard with a nice, tall fence... or so much land one needent worry about nosy neighbors
Enjoy the cold run brrrrr
brisk... when running, it's called brisk 😂
I am so scared to drive in it but i have to be tough and do it.....
Common sense and a good set of tires!
You got this, @Missk_2022
What I did back when I lived in Pa was I would practice driving in a parking lot. I would stop and go and get a feel for the traction. I would practice slides. Nothing to violent but enough to refresh my snow driving skills. It will help relieve some of the anxiety.
Plus - donuts are fun :ROFLMAO:
70. Feels a bit chilly to these bones used to 90!
Got back to my place yesterday. Thermostat said it was 71 inside. Turned that right down to 68. Much better. :ROFLMAO:
Thx
I made it to my parents and shoveled the walk
Only to realize dont have to be there til 1045
On the way had to turn around because people sliding of the road. I have awd and she did pretty good.
Yep - it's those "other people" you have to worry about more than your own driving. Having to react to their bonehead decisions. :rolleyes:
The problem is to get a car in a cargo container is that it needs to be pushed to one side. When that side is near a wall, you can't get at those to fill them.
Ah - not "itty bitty space all around" but "itty bitty space on one side and none on the other". Yep - tractor pullin' time.
Momma behaved for once.
Good thing I was sitting down for this update :ROFLMAO:
Glad your delayed family gathering is a good one 🫂
You had me at “Nigella”…

She’s my TeeVee Crush.

I’d never heard Nutmeg is toxic and that article said they scaled back from the original 1553 recipe. I like it because my granddaughter has dairy allergies and the original has no dairy. May try this this weekend.
I think she's someone else's Hall Pass? :unsure:

Yeah - I remind myself with some of those old recipes of the state of their medicine and hygiene... then I do a deep dive before considering an exact replica of the original recipe 😂 There's a reason why 40 was "advanced years" back when
Yes…I mean…MAJESTY!

May your reign be long! ALL HAIL THE QUEEN!
I hear trumpets 🎺 Anyone else?
Haha...dont underestimate the wiley-ness of your average 80 yr old
Truth 💣
Got dad to hospital. We r done with pre op and waiting for tge next steps.
Best of luck with dad today!!
And with your own procedure at the end of this week, too. 🫂
The whole thing made me wary of black ice. I will not drive on it.
The tricky part is seeing it first!
You were so very lucky!!
I once hit black ice at the start of an uphill at the beginning of a bridge. Luckily, the other cars behind me had enough time to slow before the ice... which gave me enough room to get my car under control (using all 3 lanes) by the time I got to the halfway point on the bridge. Don't want to do that ever again... but if I'm going to? That was the way to do it! 😬
Another experience involved driving my AWD car in a snow storm. It was my first AWD. I was amazed at the traction but almost lost it when stopping. I reminded myself of the laws of physics!😂
The Laws of Physics will bite your ass every time!
Godspeed, Dr. Tyler….
🫂 I am so sorry for your loss, @Wat_Tyler
..."and flights of angels sing thee to thy rest" 💔
 
I will not drive on ice. Once in January, I was driving to work and saw luckily black ice. I slip my stick drive car out of gear and coasted until I got to traction. Unfortunately the SUV came up behind in the next lane very fast. The SUV hit the ice and started sliding sideways. As soon as it hit dry pavement it rolled. I pulled over and called the police.

The whole thing made me wary of black ice. I will not drive on it.
I have never rolled in the snow or ice. I always chose dry conditions! I meant studs, they do help. It also helps at time to have friends along that can push.
 
I don't have a thermometer, but we're just arriving in Cameron LA and it's really brisk.... I'm wearing a jacket and preheating my steel-toes on an engine.
I have worked in a steel mill and we had these huge heat treating furnaces. You would freeze on one side and burn up on the other. A couple of times I had steam coming off my clothes that got wet from the snow.
