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

I had 11 meetings on my calendar this morning, including three sort of at the same time. I was able to get into parts of each one of them.

Whew.

And then good news, my boss canceled two meetings and pushed them out to later in the week.

So now I have time to take lunch today. But I’m not going to eat. I’m going to mow the lawn that I couldn’t get to yesterday.
 
Morning all. Hardly slept a all last night. I think I managed the 1am, 1:30am, 2am, 3am, 4:30am, 5am, 7:30am clubs all in one night!

Yesterday helped fell a huge maple, and mowed the lawn. The lawn used to be a field, and has a lot of trefoil seed in it, so a lot of trefoil. It looked all yellow yesterday, and the rain the day before didn't slow that down at all! But at least it's green when mowed! :ROFLMAO:

After that we ran for diesel and no ethanol gas. There went $125... Fortunately the truck was already full!
 
Good Morning everyone,
I slept late; but I always do as I'm retired.
My day is...
Get up, coffee for me and my wife
Breakfast for both, watch TV and iPad (me)...PC for wifey
Lunch and a snack
More TV
Showers
Naps
Get dinner ready
Eat dinner
Coffee
Run dishwasher
More TV & internet
Wifey goes to sleep in recliner around 10ish
I go to sleep 1am, usually while I'm online.... in my recliner (next to her)...
 
Morning, Café Denizens
I'm treading water until another department provides values for a pilot. Then it's Full Steam Ahead once more...
What's everyone else up to?
“Read this?!” the Polish man replies, “I work with this guy!”
:ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: Oh, thank you... I really needed a good laugh today.
I had to wait for my morning coffee for an hour. I take a medication and can't have anything for an hour after I take it, including coffee! Sucks!
Same here - but it's just baked into my mornings now. Really only notice on Lazy Days and Early Travel Days really. 🤷‍♀️
I remember a fellow I worked with telling me you can choose your friends but you can't choose your family. For me that rings true for me.
Family of Choice!! We've done FoC since before that label existed.
Aunt - was BFF of my grandparents
Uncle - was a college roommate of my father

The best thing I ever did was cut toxic people out of my life. It was my 50th birthday present to myself. Haven’t looked back. I know family is different…but I’m with you.
Yes - and for those family that can't be cut out (or not yet)... boundaries!

I'm blessed - the most toxic family member only contacts me when they want something. Boundary and Red Flag all wrapped* up in one.

*almost had a typo warp for wrap - works either way TBH 😂
That does suck. I am not sure I could wait that long every day.
I'm used to it - been taking the med this way for over half my life now. Changes the order of a Lazy Morning but otherwise just suffles the order around a bit.
Coffee - breakfast - shower becomes start coffeepot - shower - coffee - breakfast
I usually wake up in the middle of the night and take it. This morning I slept late.

Curse you red Baron!


I haven’t had my coffee yet!

Such a @Wonderer67 thing to do :LOL:

Who approved this schedule?!?
I'll have a word with management, sir.
I had a week of sort of bad eating... I feel shitty today
Reset... Last week's in the past... time to start a new week

That's a full lineup.

You all are my FOC
 
I’m doing PT for my hip and glute tendons. And my PT keeps trying to add on stuff. Last week we added a stretch which twisted the back muscles. I was in pain for 2 days. Today he suggested another stretch and it also twists my back muscles. This time I said no and he looked puzzled. I said remember that last time? Then he got it.

I may ask for a different PT. The women seem more sensitive. One helped with the back pain last week.
 
Well that was a really busy weekend. I spent two days at the Scottish Gamefair st Scone Palsce. I had a day on the Pass It On Young Sports stand helping my pal. Again we were trying to develop opportunities for children to get out into the countryside.

Then another day just pottering and speaking with people and enjoying "Me Time". It was good to catch up with a few people I know and make contacts with some I didn't. That included a reception invitation to hear about the value of shooting. Interestingly this included health and ecological/carbon credits.
 
I'll blame this one on my Dr. The new med is keeping me up...

Fortunately that wears off about the same time the alarm clock goes off! :unsure: Which makes for a doubly long day...
Well that feels like a rip-off. Any chance it's temporary? Or you can change the time you take the med - so these trips are during daylight hours? 😖

Hmm... feels like someone isn't taking and/or reviewing patient notes between sessions. 🤞 your PT experience improves... and ⭐ for advocating for yourself!
Well that was a really busy weekend.
Sounds like an amazing weekend giving back to your community again, Grey 🎉
Is it to early to go to bed?
Never too early IMO... Sweet Dreams 🫂

It's only 8:30 pm, but if you're tired...by all means. Enjoy! :rose: :rose::rose:
See? 2nd opinion.... hope you get some solid rest so you feel refreshed tomorrow
 
The night after the Ablation her heart rate dropped to 38bpm. So they put in a pure pacemaker the next day. This is what has generated the pain. I’m on the road so don’t know exactly what she’s taking but my DiL is saying Tylenol. I need to get home is the bottom line. They sent me a pic of her wound yesterday 😫. I had no idea…

Was in Vegas for the 4th and I have to say, they know how to put on a fireworks display…don’t know about the professional type on the strip. I’m talking the local bubbas out in the neighborhood! Sounded like an artillery barrage. I finally gave up trying to sleep and just opened the curtains and watched the show. I did get some good pics for the Morning Z though…

Desert sunrise MZ…

I hope she's doing better now, H!
