Shoulders and knees must always be covered. And gays can be imprisoned for 3 years.

MONDAY!!!
Started out with a scare that both A/C and Furnace would need to be replaced... but turned out to just be a blower motor. Same-day fix and much more affordable. Still a big bite out of my budget, but not nearly as much as a replacement would have been.

How's everyone else starting the week?

God, you just made me cry.... I worked that rig and all of Her "sisterships"....

You fall squarely in the Superhero category. How anyone survived that disaster is beyond my comprehension.

Let K+ or me know. We can come over and insert an NG tube! You won't taste a thing!

I was giving this serious consideration during a GI flare - until an elemental diet showed that I was reacting to the process of digestion as much as I was the food.

Still sounds like an attractive option for this prep. My next is due in October - how open is your calendar?

Wait just a little bit until Wat has the commune going. I bet he gives you pick of the houses and will paint any color you want.

Sound advice!! Always easier to run away from home when you have a destination and secured housing at the other end.

I've never tried Tai Chi. I should check it out!
My trainer is so awesome! I feel very fortunate I found her!

Your trainer sounds amazing! So glad you found her... does she have a sibling in the Midwest?? Asking for a friend.

About Tai Chi- I still know a few good moves but I keep twisting my knee when I should by pivoting on the ball of my foot. That meant hurting knee! So I’m now trying standing Pilates. So far it’s good.

A now-retired PT provider used to offer a Tai Chi for Arthritis class. He used the Dr. Paul Lam program - and he has a YouTube Channel.
I love Part I but my knees and ankles find Part II too twisty.

Minor grade mayhem Saturday and Sunday. Did two days at the airshow. I don’t ever need to do that again, but my friend was needing out on old airplanes.
I mean it’s cool to see them and all, but two days of it? I’m over it.
There were some good old man bars found tho. That’s always fun!

The mark of true friendship there... and I'm sure they appreciated your company. But yes - you get to select the next team activity.

The same rules on what you can bring onto the airfield apply as the local airport. No one knew that so many pocket knives were bagged and secured until after the show when people departed.

Courthouses, too. You would not believe the amount and variety of weapons people try to walk into a courthouse. There's no door check service. Either you hand it over to a deputy (and never get it back), or you leave and re-enter without it.
They do regular sweeps of the landscaping for all the knives, etc. that are "temporarily housed" in the bushes.

And thanks for the birthday martini. Tomorrow’s the big day, but I’ll drink this now and have another then.

Happy Birthday - today

Heading to the doc for a stress test. . I tried to tell them my job and wife are stressful and I didn’t need to do this…they weren’t buying it!

Good luck on the test
Yeah - surviving regular stressors doesn't give you a free pass. If it did I doubt anyone would need to take that test.
Hope you continue to enjoy vacation and get some good water time in as well!!

Back on the east coast of USA!

Welcome home!!! Missed you

72° is my happy place!

Same!!
Thank goodness I had a cooling towel when it hit 80° in my place Saturday night
So much better now... 66 outside... and a perfect 72 inside right now

I'll stop whining about our nearly 90° temps!

Hell no! Anything over 72-74 (with a breeze) is deserving of complaint in my book

Sixty one degrees here today

mid-sixties... and loving it!!

I thought the hummingbirds looked hungry this morning. We had 49, but it's warmed up to 50 now!

It's been raining for over 12 hours now, things are really wet out there today. Lawn mowing probably won't get finished today...

49/50 is even better than mid-sixties... but since both are under 72, I won't complain

Now a nurse tells me about the straw after suffering for about 20 years of agony.

Ooh - perfect set up for the only idiom I recall from high school Spanish class:
Mas vale tarde que nunca
Better late than never

Wait, which end does the straw go in?

The sippy part

Ah choices choices I’m confused. I’m heading for the soda fountain. I’ll have to chime in with what i learn

At first I read that as "The slippery part"...
...which wasn't much better...

Either end worked LOL

I am so here for conversations like this one!!! ^^^

About that dress.... it's one who ANYBODY would be fortunate to get under and show thanks and gratitude....
PS.... I'll gladly delete this if it's inappropriate..... but I'll forever stand by the sentiment...

I don't have anything against the dress really... I just want it in a different color
These colors suit me more...

Morning all, wow there have been some prolific posts!

Howzit?

Its great likes haha, bit chilly but great, older are you giggling because we Aussie’s say howzat sometimes ? Lol

I accents. Perhaps because I grew up in an area known for its lack of strong accent.
So when I replied back with "hiya", I immediately heard one of the characters from "Brokenwood Mysteries" in my head saying, "Howzat".

Chilly here, too, but no complaints from me. I melt in the heat. So while all my friends are complaining about how cold it is and putting on sweatshirts, I'm jamming around in a short-sleeved t-shirt just loving it! Mid 60s F here (@ 17/18 C).

Also in a great mood b/c my A/C is fixed - no need to replace... same-day fix and in great condition for many more years. Over. The. Moon.

 

[Adventurous_soul]

Accents are fun aren’t they, you Americans have more variety than we have here though

 

[Tweedledude]

Howzit?

I’m checking lol. Oh y ya oh wait time for the bp med lol

Don't mind me, I'm just lurking around, looking for some Scottish souls to talk to. Maybe look up some of my family...

 

[likes2watchU]

Variety is the spice of life, right?
I love traveling but don't have the budget to go everywhere I'd like or as often as I'd like.
Television and movies are good vehicles for that...

I absolutely fell in love with 1 Night, 2 Days (1박 2일) - a Korean variety show. I especially love the episodes with Kang Ho-dong as the emcee. It ticked all the boxes for me: language, food, fun, culture. Viki.com had full episodes with subtitles. It's what kept me pedaling on my recumbent bike after my first knee replacement.

 

[Adventurous_soul]

Korea is on my list!

Hope you find some night owls, Rj. They're 6 hours ahead.
If you're just looking for the accent and a laugh, may I suggest some Kevin Bridges?

cw: language (aye... Scots)

that series - IMO especially w/ Kang Do-hong really was an amazing showcase for all areas of South Korea... I loved it!

It said "age restricted to those under 12"
But this one has English subtitles (a must for me).
