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

It's the rebuilt component which may make it a tad untrustworthy. Then again, maybe it's just some st000pid kind of malf. Nonfeasance instead of malfeasance. I don't know. I was pissed regardless until the healing power of the cosmos fixeded it.


It knows how I talk. It cloud-accesses my computer stuff and I can "write" by talking to it. Typing has never been my thing. I outright suck at it and I'm never going to be interested enough to put time into it to get gooder. I love it and have been more productive since I got it. There be books-n-pomes (poimes?) clawin'ta get out. It gives me the opportunity to strike when the iron is hot, to create when the urge hits me. Kinda like a wordy version of projectile vomiting.
Good, functioning tech is invaluable! We can't have functional lives anymore without it. I'm so glad it works again for you, Wat! 🥰
 
Um... where is your cut? And what kind of pellets are inside of it? 😳

Do NOT use epoxy resin on it!
Right hip/upper butt cheek.
Testosterone.
Yes, I skipped the epoxy.
While I figure my skin could have taken it, I didn't want it to attack the 6 month "time release" pellets and "overdose" me (if possible).
I thank you soooo much for your input....

As icing on the cake, I caught a raging flu upon arrival... it got hellish yesterday and tonight.
Hence my absence.
 
Happy Saturday. I look kinda caught up but I ain't. Y'all done posterized too damned much yesterday and there wasn't much of me left last night when I dragged in. Slept like a log and 2 hours later/longer. Taking Dr. Tyler to early lunch at 11. Then we have some scheduling stuff to go over for bill-paying and planning an' shit. We haz rain. It had some ice in it which I saw when I went to the truck to get my dirty clothes in to wash.
I'm glad you got good sleep!

We had snow again last night. Today it warmed up a bit, enough to melt most of it. It's been off and on sleety rain most of the day. We might get more snow tonight.
 
Thanks Lili and Miss K for the advice!

UPDATE- took Momma to a drive through c19/flu/RVM RSM? Whatever it’s called and she has the flu. That seems to be the good news. Mucinex DM and Tamiflu…she’s sounding better already.

Granddaughter. Her fever spiked to 105 yesterday. Took her to the ER, and they got her heading south to 102…Tylenol and something else. So on top of her C-diff she has the flu. I was shepherding mom around so only getting bits and pieces on the phone. She’s has been on anti-b’s for a week or two for this C-diff thing.

The funny thing is the kids are blaming momma for giving it to her and momma is blaming the baby for her catching it!🤣. The clown show never ends! Her and the baby are inseparable so who knows what the truth is. I will pass along the dishes and clothes and glove routine.

Thanks again ladies for your expert advice! 😘😍😻

Since my Key West pics broke the spell of winter around these parts, and It seems I have the power of the Groundhog, I’m moving on to Bavarian Spring Pics to trump the furry rodent and bring on spring sooner! That ground pigs prediction be damned! 😂

Poor baby!

There are lots of ways of transmission of c-diff. As @Missk_2022 said, the spores are hard to kill. They can also lay dormant for long periods of time. They are in soil. Some people are silent carriers. Some infants have c-diff in their colon asymptomatically.

Infection can spread by direct fecal-oral route. It can live in the take-out food that was prepared by someone who didn't wash his/her hands well. It can be picked up by touching spores in dirt or on surfaces. It can also be aerosolized.

It's important for anyone changing a baby's diaper to wash their hands immediately after. Putting the lid down on the toilet before flushing helps to keep pathogens from being aerosolized. Studies have shown that fecal particals can be flung as far as 6 ft away from the toilet when flushing. 😱

Casting blame at this time isn't productive. If grama doesn't have c-diff, it's unlikely she gave it to baby. The important thing now is to ensure baby's care so she gets well. 🫂🫂
 
Busy a few days.

Coming home from work last night I don’t know how I missed the deer that jumped out in front of me, but somehow I did. Whew.

For 10 years or so, I watched my daughter play grade school, high school, club and college volleyball. Now she is coaching, and I watched her coach her team to two victories and one loss.

Fun day!

Now out to split some firewood before the snow starts.
Lucky miss! I had a buck with huge antlers jump onto the freeway in front of me as I was coming down the mountain pass. Thankfully, I just saw it out of the corner of my eye and the fwy wasn't busy. I was able to slam on the brakes of the truck. I could have almost touched him, it was that close! 😱😱
 
This was a one-off. My mom had loads of these types of plug-in nick-nacks and not one of them over the course of decades ever had an issue except that one.

I vaguely recall my parents later looking at what was left. My guess? There was a crack in the plastic plug or faulty wires and it wasn't noticed until then.

If you're concerned about the cords on older items, look into getting the entire cord replaced.
I think it must have been at some time. It's a separate bulb with a switch on the cord.
 
Yes. I was given a 1-season and ethanol gas carb - which I replaced and got it going again - as a cast-off. It never did quite run to suit me and I always had something to fiddle with on it. One year not too long ago, I declared it a piece of shit and put it out at the alley and went to Lowe's and bought the cheapest mower possible, and that was $300. I have a small yard here Back East. The JD disappeared opernight and good damn riddance, too. The cheap mower starts every year by the 3rd pull.


I have never heard any negatives on little Honda engines.


Do not, if humanly possible run ethanol gasoline in your small engine. Find somewhere in the country that sells 100% gasoline. The ethanol turns to sludge in the gas lines and fucks up the works. Even with 100% gas, run it out before winter storage, just to be safe.
What kind of gas is at gas stations? Is it not 100% gasoline?
