Before Hawk Tuah was a thing.


Speaking of, Tua got benched. Looks like he earned it.

What did he do

Well hope everyone is having a good night

I ended up taking the whole day off and knocking out a bunch of chores and to-dos.

Visited my friend at the rehab. Had a good visit. Shit tons of limbs down and one fell right next to my truck. Fairly sizable too.

The power at the rehab was on and off the whole time.

His son was there too and we had a bunch of of laughs. A nurse came in just to tell us she was happy we were laughing lots. “It’s the beat medicine.”

(We were talking about all kinds of guy talk and thought she’d overheard us!)

Great visit. I brought some really good meatballs from a great restaurant in my hometown.

Coming home was tough. Tons of roads closed. It was near my hometown so I knew all of the roads to go nowhere the road was closed.

It was good to get home.

And good to see my buddy.

He comes home on Tuesday.

How your day sometimes goes, when you're in your 70's. Mine started as expected; reporting to our local hospital at 0615, for a procedure under general anesthesia. Woke up, feeling not nauseous, or foggy brain, big plus.

Wife accompanied me as my designated driver. Nurses went to retrieve wife to meet me in recovery. Nurses return w/o wife, concern on their faces. They explain on the walk to my room, wife who uses a cane fell in the hallway on her hip. Said they'd take me the ER after I dressed.
We sat in ER waiting room an hour or more, waiting on results. She's admitted with broken hip.

Surgery tomorrow at 0800, full hip replacement.
Neither of us know my daughter's or granddaughter's phone number without our cells. Left mine at home intentionally, she left hers at home by mistake. Fun day, she rated her pain level at a 9.
p.s. I violated the no alcohol rule for 24-hours around hour 12. Merry Christmas, LOL

Anyone else having trouble logging into LIt? Couldn’t get in through Safari or Brave this a.m. ? I quit Safari, it came up but wouldn’t go through…then I shut down VPN and it let me…I had updated yesterday but wasn’t running it when I did and had trouble last night also…Lit might be telling me something…

If’n I ever end up in the old folks home…just push me out to sea in my boat…let nature do the rest. Helped with my uncle today. He had a mini-stroke and can move his arms and legs but can’t stand on his own…I was thinking he could. He’s a lot worse off than I thought. Anyhow, helped my cousins take a motorized recliner in. We spent some quality time.

I don’t ever want to spend one minute in a place like that….and it’s one of the nicer ones here in town…

Got some Christmas shopping done…nothing like waiting till the last minute. Gotta guy coming over to help with the Elves in the attic today. Found some caps for the pipe for cheap at Lowe’s. Just gotta find a way to get up yonder.

Everyone have a great start to the weekend! The Afternoon Z——

I didn’t have any trouble logging on. I always use my phone so no issues.

I agree. If I can’t take care of my self, I feel like I’m no longer living. Then I’m just existing.

And I won’t have that.

 

[Wonderer67]

My dads dialysis access clotted... so now we have a cross fingers situation that gey can get him in monday to replace port. Or it is off to the er we go.... he cant go a week without dialysis

What did he do

Not enough.

Hey, we have similar vocabularies. When the nurses come back empty handed when in recovery, I caught myself almost-saying, You're shitting me? Yes I made it home, luckily my granddaughter is home from LSU on Christmas break.

 

[Missk_2022]

Roper all my best to u and your wife

I can't wait for the move, but it’s very stressful too. And it's in January...

Looks like a great place for you and Lady K!

@nipplecaresser,

This isn't you, is it?

I can confirm that this amateur performance is nothing to do with me. Cut-out holes in the back of T shirts???
If you can't undo it through a minimum of two layers of clothing you are, rightly, barred from competing in the annual 'Free the Funbags' world championships!

Funny, I always thought Climax and Paradise were closer together!

 

[likes2watchU]

It's a Hello-Goodnight kind of day
No complaints though - I made it through intact

How your day sometimes goes

I'm so very sorry this happened

Free surgery? I mean, it's the least they can do when she fell on their watch, right?
Too soon?

The pictures you posted were gorgeous!

Yes, it's probably the stain I don't like. I prefer a more natural look as well.

When the natural wood is that gorgeous, why on earth would you use a dark stain?
Wood Crimes!

There was that abandoned house I got stuck clearing out that time.
It had squatters, and guess what squatters do . . . .

I feel like the answer is hiding somewhere really close... like right there in the name???

Guess who got her size 18 jeans up and zipped this am.... me thats right....ME

The girls will understand

She may be trying to tooken control of what mind I have left.

Send her my way... she's welcome to what's left of mine

She's in repose on the computer table.

Lit's gone belly-up a few times this week while on my desktop w/ the VPN. If refreshing the page or changing servers doesn't work I just reboot and that fixes it. Annoying AF but it resolves fairly easily.

Gotta guy coming over to help with the Elves in the attic today. Found some caps for the pipe for cheap at Lowe’s. Just gotta find a way to get up yonder.

Cap it - Cap it good!!
Get the varmint out and keep 'em out!

Yep - hits on at least two levels, don't it?

If you master that one handed behind the back over the shoulder boulder holder loop and hook disconnection technique, let us know...
We might like instruction.

Asking for a friend...

My dads dialysis access clotted... so now we have a cross fingers situation that gey can get him in monday to replace port. Or it is off to the er we go.... he cant go a week without dialysis

Oh @Missk_2022 I'm so sorry this is happening and happening now. Hope it gets resolved soon!!

Ugh. Too late to nap and too early to call it a day.
Oh, the humanity . . . .

Yeah - didn't get one today either.
Sucks!

Visited my friend at the rehab. Had a good visit. Shit tons of limbs down and one fell right next to my truck. Fairly sizable too.

Sounds like The Boys were looking out for you...

Really glad you had a good visit!!!

I caught myself almost-saying, You're shitting me?

Impressive - that's a wily sucker! Gets past the best nets. Have heard that one get past so many relatives... gotta be a Family Trait.

Hmm... just realized most of my moves have all been dead of winter.
Best one? Out for dinner w/ Aunties for New Year's Eve... mentioned some of the shenanigans my roommate and her boyfriend were pulling... next thing you know the whole family is at the apartment moving out all my stuff.
Found a new place and moved again a few weeks later - also in winter. Solo move that time... not as much fun.

Time for me to call it a night...
I have the joy of the Last Saturday Before Christmas at the Post Office tomorrow...
Should be off the hook
Sweet Dreams, spoonies

Exactly the same for me: in UK time!

New rule: no wine after nine!

Cancel that new rule @Missk_2022
Here's a great way to sleep right through for six hours without needing a pee: play sport for two hours and instead of rehydrating with water, try mulled cider instead (fortified with a drop or two of scotch and ginger wine)!
