Doesn't sound like a shabby day at all.Neither my wife nor I could get into the groove of things today. It was cool and windy - not great for gardening or working outside but we did it anyway.
But not before I left around our house and decided it needed a good cleaning. We don’t live in squalor, but our house isn’t spotless either and every so often I just can’t take it anymore. So I did a good, deep cleaning.
Then it was outside to join my wife weeding various garden beds and our veggie garden.
I think my short term fix of the pool is working. The water level hasn’t changed.
Then to a neighbors for a nice visit. They had a party and good to see people. Then watched the Mets beat the dodgers.
Goodnight all!
It is. However, YOU can't be her savior. You can direct her to resources for help. Even if you were in a committed relationship, it's not advisable to be your partner's sole means of support. I've been there and it did not work. In fact, it was disastrous for me.Thank you, I appreciate that.
It's not so much feeling responsible, it's more that I think she's develop/have developed an attachment to me.
I also think she might be turning to drink, and that is very serious.
Cookies for breakfast!Good morning OM and others at the diner. Yesterday was a good day of weather and walking with new friends who are as old as me. We sat outside and had ice cream for the first time this year! Then I made coconut, almond cherry cookies for breakfast of course. Next I had a very long conversation with my cousin.
Thank you to all of you Veterans, as well. Both of my parents were Vets. My dad went to Vietnam and was in Saigon during the Tet Offensive. We were lucky he came home; he very nearly didn't.If anyone deserves a stretch of highway dedicated in their name it would Jimmy in Fla…
He did more to promote tourism in that state, albeit in a roundabout way, than possibly anyone since Hemingway. Even if it’s only on one side!
Well, providence has shown on me. Company left me in a hotel so I can watch the single greatest day of racing on the planet. F1 kicking off in Monaco, Indy 500, then the Co-Cola 600…
Never forget in all the revelry to pause for a moment in honor of those who gave the ultimate sacrifice.![]()

It usually skews the other way! We're wanting to cuddle and chat; he's all snoring away.Like transferring the "essence of sleep" or something like that?
There has to be a scientific explanation about why that ratio skews so much ....![]()
When my first husband and I bought our first house, it had a pool. Since I minored in Chem, it was my job to maintain the water quality. His job was to maintain the equipment and clean it, which he did until we got a pool guy.One of the best days of my life was when we took the pool down for good. Just planted grass seed on the spot where it used to be. People have these love hate relationships with things, this was more like a hate hate relationship.
It was great when the kids used it, but they grew out of that phase, so it was time to go!
Beautiful flowers! Have you dug up your honey garlic to see if there are cloves? I'd be interested to see if there are and if they taste good!My wife and I had no idea what these were or how they got here. We called them explosion, plants or fireworks plants. Thanks to Google images. We’ve identified them as Sicilian or Turkish Honey Garlic.

Um... have we chosen an interview committee for the cabana boy?Sunday, Sunday, Sunday!
Hope everyone is enjoying the weekend.
My sincerest Thank You for those that served and those currently in service.
Love that idea of "giving yourself permission "... also, we covered this yesterday... sleep is such good medicine
This is Rock Star Level self-care
I agree. Ghosting is cruel.
I think the phrase I'm looking for describes a skill I never really learned:
Detach with love*
*or at least care
this is a really tall order, but I'll try
You give great meme, OM
That sounds deep. Some of the best conversations I've had are those long, deep 1:1 talks that arise spontaneously.
Right? And I know keeping my mouth full of something* isn't the answer.
*clean it up - was thinking food or gum.hmm, that could fall under "other duties as assigned" for the open Cabana Boy position
I always forget this is car race day. Enjoy, HDH
New research project just dropped I see
Hate that. I helped out a friend with a produce stand shift back in the day. Realized "this is why bodegas limit the number of kids in the store at one time". The losses happened during customer swarms.
You're doing it wrong, Likes! What if you get full before you get to the most liked foods?!? I say reverse your order! Eat dessert first. Eat least liked if there's room.Anytime I'm at a cookout or potluck, I'm reminded that I don't eat like most people.
I don't think anyone else really notices... or cares.
I eat from least liked to most liked food.
Save the best for last, right?![]()
Same. I'm too old to eat things I don't like.I just got to the point where I didn't put anything on my plate that I didn't like to begin with. If asked, I would just say it's not my....thing, vibe, taste, adventure.
Did you fill up every vehicle and can you have?
The offer is still open to clean my house! I'll even provide the French maid's outfit!Neither my wife nor I could get into the groove of things today. It was cool and windy - not great for gardening or working outside but we did it anyway.
