Mornin', ma'am. Hope you got a bit o' sleep.


Oddly enough, Wat slept through the night.

Once I go to sleep it was ok.
I need to drink a bunch of water. I woke up with a headache

 

[Oldermom935]

Hope everyone has a great morning! I'm off for 7 today. ... Don't forget to look after yourselves today...

 

[Missk_2022]

Hello MissK…did you ever drift off?

I gave up. Been on the early shift all week so, I just got up.

Yeah about 2 ish.... up at 545

I didn't drink my water yesterday. I had tea for lunch. I need to guzzle more water today.


The wire butchers were hitting me up for water yesterday because it was warm. It'll be cooler today.

Good morning all! Is the third week of in a row of craziness at work for me.

I’ll be going to our valley Forge office on Tuesday and then into Philly again on Wednesday.

And pretty much while the wall meetings all the rest of the time.

I don't know where your office is in Valley Forge but I worked near there for 23 years. If the weather is nice I recommend grab a sandwhich and go to Valley Forge National Park. The dogwoods may be in bloom and you can watch the deer grazing. The Naitional Memorial Arch is a good place.

It is well integrated into the dash.

I wondered. Those old radios with tubes were huge. Now that I think about it I wonder how they got those things to work. I thought there push buttons but I didn't see a dial.

I say brownies are for beginners
We make lots of different edibles
This last batch I used a QP of killer green bud
Even for us there very potent

I don't know about brownies for beginners but I do know you should be careful with some of the stuff out there these days. I took a couple of hits of a vape like it was a joint. It knocked me on my ass, Literally.

I just looked uo how they got the B+ for the tubes which was usually up around 80 volts or so. There were special tubes designed to use a 12 volt B+

Wide awake staring at ceiling.... turn to the left turn to the right....fluff pillow repeat

That was me all night too. Then hardly able to drag my ass out of bed in the morning.

 

[dkak001]

If I’m thinking too many things at once I watch/hear a murder mystery on Acorntv, Britbox or pbs passport on my iPad set up on the edge of the bed, and often fall asleep mid mystery usually in the middle of the murder.

So you find murder comforting and relaxing? Should we be worried?

 

[dkak001]

Testor's.

Them 4 post lifts look darn nice. I keep thinking I need a couple of 'em.

I have a couple of original radios for the '57. I believe they are push button, but I have yet to open them up. I hear they are tubes, and use a vibrator to generate the voltage.

Now you've got me thinking I should pull one apart.

We only use what we grow
But I’ve heard about people lacing it

Good morning everyone. Hope your ️ is strong and you have a good day. Be safe.

I couldn't figure out why my house was sort of cold..... thqts what happens when you leave the front door open with a screen in the storm door all night.....smh

We had a neighbor call us one morning. She said she drove by and saw that the front door was wide open (She closed it for us) Apparently wife or kids left the door open. It was -6F that day. The heating bill spiked that month!

Morning everyone
Let's just jump right in, shall we?
Thanks to @Oldermom935 for her morning coffee/tea memes. Always a nice way to start my day.
Today's theme sounds like: Sleep Issues

I use Breethe and either put on around the whole in 80 days or Deep Sleep + Brain waves. It helps a lot.
If I’m thinking too many things at once I watch/hear a murder mystery on Acorntv, Britbox or pbs passport on my iPad set up on the edge of the bed, and often fall asleep mid mystery usually in the middle of the murder.

If my mind is racing, I'll put a movie on the tablet - one I've seen multiple times so I don't get pulled in by the story. Typically a kids' movie to avoid any action or scary stuff from infiltrating my dreams. When the mind is not racing, I use a CD I bought almost 15 years ago.
Sleepy Ocean by Dr. Jeffrey D. Thompson

UK TV only allows a maximum of 8 minutes per hour of adverts at prime time, less than half of the US limit. With golf, there are so many shots happening simultaneously that there is always enough footage in hand to fill in any excessive US ad breaks.

Love it! Reminds me of Tom Hanks in the movie Big.
The office scene @ 0:50

Read this as titty taps and thought "what are they?" Created fun images in my mind for a few seconds

I'm sure this is exactly where your mind went

I just finished posting a bunch of stuff on personality vampires aka narcissists and now I’m thinking of a posting on women being heavier as protection but since I’m traveling tomorrow and need to be up and away early tomorrow , I’d better save that.

By chance have you read Hunger by Roxane Gay?
Memoir but also reads like a Master Class on the subject of being heavier for protection.

I wish I could as I would. Sorry you are having problems with sleep.

Thanks, B2. I wish you could teach me, too. Pretty sure my sleep issues will resolve once things IRL calm down a bit. Resolved my tax issue - both returns in accepted status. Handyman is being more communicative - about why he's not coming to work, but better than ghosting. A few more irons in the fire, but it's slowly burning back down to embers.

Dropped off in a snap but somewhere around 0330-4 wide awake…did the same toss and fluff routine. No avail so threw in the towel. Was supposed to go home today but company had other plans. Still getting home, just much later…

Hope everyone made it through “the Monday” and now settling in for the week. Will leave a little PNW MZ.

Sorry for the delay but glad you're still on track to go home.

A large auger is recommended. Vertical holes don't cause suspicion like ditches when viewed from satellites.

Hello MissK…did you ever drift off?
I gave up. Been on the early shift all week so, I just got up.

Last time I woke was only @ 30 minutes before my alarm. So I gave in and got up and ready a bit earlier than usual.

Once I go to sleep it was ok.
I need to drink a bunch of water. I woke up with a headache

Oh, no. I hate morning headaches! I hope the water and maybe a little caffeine boost did the trick.

Hope everyone has a great morning! I'm off for 7 today. ... Don't forget to look after yourselves today...

Hope you had a good run, OM. Thanks for the Morning Memes

Good morning everyone ..... Sort of anshitty day yesterday....but today is new and so can be better, right?

That's the spirit, DH!! New day, new opportunities

I didn't drink my water yesterday. I had tea for lunch. I need to guzzle more water today.

The wire butchers were hitting me up for water yesterday because it was warm. It'll be cooler today.

These are adults, right?

So you find murder comforting and relaxing? Should we be worried?

I had a CB radio when I was little. I used to tune into the CBS Mystery Theater radio show to listen to at bedtime. Loved it!!

I have a couple of original radios for the '57. I believe they are push button, but I have yet to open them up. I hear they are tubes, and use a vibrator to generate the voltage.

Oooh, so you run a Vibrator Repair Shop as a side hustle? Filing that away for later.

Silver Lining: At least you're not sleeping on a submarine?


Well, time to get ready for the first meeting of the day.
Booked nearly solid from 9a to 3p. Still nowhere near the Meeting Marathons @Wonderer67 deals with - but more than enough for me today.

Some experience in that area, yes.
But if they're particularly worn out items, best to replace with new...

...Wait! What are we talking about?
