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

"It's always only me!". I just told my wife that after she just said "I don't think is just you." Referring to how long it's taking my new employer to pull my non existent records. They use a service called Driver Pulse that sends me a status bar in Percentage Finished. It's been going backwards the last couple of days. I can't make this stuff up. 🤣😆😇

When I had my first ever industrial job after a failed college attempt (a whole other story that includes Doc Severinsen and a coma), the maintenance department nicknamed me Black Cloud. Everything I touched broke. Every shift I worked became a shutdown. I could find the chink in any armor just by breathing on it.

I should move to Las Vegas and be a cooler for a casino.

Afternoon everyone...
Been up for a while but just finishing my bevies of choice.
Love the discussion on Shame Free Beverage Zone
Gotta work on the acronym though - SFBZ doesn't really roll off the tongue well :rolleyes:
No home care for mom today or tomorrow.
Sounds like a long weekend for everyone. Hope future schedules have at least a short respite over the weekends for you and mom. 🫂
Too long I like one syllable easier when you are working them and have to give and urgent voice command... easier to bark it out....Toby was an exception....because he was ... well .... a Toby
Understood. That's where nicknames are helpful.
Ferg is shorter w/ commands than say Fergus McFlufferton. :LOL:

Tornado watch has passed us. Sleeping in tomorrow. Prolly till 0900.

Good night!

🌝🌛✨
Sorry you had to be on alert most of the night. Hope the dangerous weather passes you by.
At the risk of sparking controversy
Coffee is vile.
Does this mean that the Café is classified as a Swingers Club since we have both tea and coffee lovers here? :unsure:
What happens if you put a tea bag in your coffee?
Is there a punchline? Or serious question?
But there are tea-coffee drinks already out there... I think it's more common in Asia and maybe with the "double your caffeine" crowd??

Dirty Chai - chai tea w/ shot of espresso
Military Latte - coffee with a tea infusion
We have a dog park near by with a small pond. Dog like to go in it and then role around in the mud. They do have a wash station so tha tis handy. I keep our guys on a leash till it is out of view then let them run.
When you let them run, do they run back to the pond?? :unsure:
It's gym time that period where I'm in Nervana lol that's what I'm telling myself today
Endorphins for the win!!
Morning all. Nursing is HARD bizz! 😛. Sleeping in a chair didn’t cut it so broke out the cot. Slept much better, but the wake-ups every couple three hours…
New knees are like new babies as far as sleep goes... at least for the first little bit. Once you manage to sleep through the night and stretch out the pain med windows... life gets really good again.
So, eyes on the prize and cat naps until then!!
It will change and when it does, it gets better!!
Keep a few different size pillows and towels handy though. Until that range of motion is achieved, you may need varying amounts of support to keep from hyperextending the knee while you sleep. That phase can be challenging and somewhat more irksome to manage than the initial pain med-sleep cycle IMO. 🫂 It really does get better though!!
It’s no drink shaming zone. 😃
:nana: Yes! Love it
At the risk of ostracization, my coffee is mostly caramel and chocolate anyway.
No shame, no judgment... just enjoyment.
More caramel and chocolate in your cup means less in mine - and for that I am very thankful. 😁

I 😍 coffee but gave up caffeine so I drink decaf. One travel mug a day w/ a liquid collagen protein that doubles as a mild sweetener. I prefer black but can't resist that 15-30 gram protein boost first thing.

After that it's herbal tea and flat water mostly. The occasional unflavored charged water for a bubble boost.
I should move to Las Vegas and be a cooler for a casino.
That's an awesome idea! :unsure: Wonder what that pays? I may be qualified, too. :LOL:
