I'm fairly close to Puget Sound. The Oacific Ocean is a bit of a drive. I do live on a lake and have access to beach areas here.

I didn't know we were so close geographically.

I have my ex's phone. It's a much better phone, but can't switch numbers till it's paid off. When I originally asked him for the remaining balance, he mailed the phone to me instead

Good that you got the better phone. A jerk move on his part to not pay off his balance.

Happy Friday!!! Getting ready to get ready to pack up and hit the road. Roads need hitting sometimes. Ten hours or so and the world changes for me. One day, I shall make this drive and not make the return. But not yet. Not yet.


Coffee.

You should be in your happy place now, Wat! Have a wonderful weekend!

TDK has to have sunlight to settle down and ride. She hates the dark. She's also not going. I do pull over if need be. Fifteen minutes is all it takes sometimes. I'll also crash for an hour when I get there. Truck is mostly loaded. It'll be Personal Effects here directly.

How can you leave TDK behind, Wat???

I went to 512 cuz of the photos. I also miss my phone phone w downloadable music.

But at least the music part is on the cloud now. I don’t like keeping my photos on the cloud.

Edit - somehow this was fucked up!!

I'm trying to find an app that I like for my music. I have been mostly using Amazon Music, but lately it has been crashing too much.

 

[Lilianna23]

You are not alone with the red tape that comes with the passing of your love. I understand. Sending comfort and support your way today.

Thank you, B2!

 

[Lilianna23]

I have pictures and videos on mine and that is about it. A few books and manuals. I have been going to go thru the pictures for ever but probably will not. I take several shots at a time so I am sure to get a good one. Anyway, maybe I will do that today!

I do the same thing, especially when I'm taking moon shots. I need to weed out all the duplicates.

 

[Lilianna23]

Sorry your having these troubles Lil.

Sending hugs. Time, hard work, diligence and patience will pay off at the end.

And a wat-like stare.

I need lessons! @Wat_Tyler, are you available to teach me the menacing stare? I have a very good RBF, will that help?

Got the crew finishing up the flagstone and fire pit. Fingers crossed it gets finished by the weekend! Cleanup then G&T’s by the fire come tomorrow night I hope! I put the wife in charge as she’s fluent in Spanish and well…the crew are fluent in Spanish. I was away on the Big Ol’ Jet Airliner last week and so I ask, when are they coming back to finish? She’s like, maybe Friday, maybe Saturday. . Well they showed up this morning, on time as always, but unannounced. Second cup of coffee interrupted! We all know that’s a party FOUL!

The Morning Z to the rescue…

Sounds like my lawn guy. I've been trying to get him to commit to a day to fix my watering system. "I'll be here Tuesday. Maybe Wednesday." He showed yesterday, Thursday. Close enough!

 

[Lilianna23]

Hope it's not been too stressful. @Lilianna23 . You deserve to get some chill time. Have a good weekend when it comes.

Thanks, G!

Today was difficult, as anticipated. I (mostly) held it together while I was in the CU. Broke down when I got to my car. Fortunately for me, my friend was available for a call.

I'm so ready to try the bacon butty and the chip butty!!!

 

[Lilianna23]

The midges have decided to come out for a banquet. Been okay until now ..I am main course and the dogs desert!

Not the midges!

 

[Qky75]

I didn't shame you..... if you felt shame that is on you..... Feel free to stick around. I was just explaining the vibe. We don't usually dm this stuff? As it is a good reminder for all of us..... including me

Yeah! You should SEE the stuff she posts...whoa man

Okok I'll see myself out

 

[Lilianna23]

I have more we can cook up fresh

You're so good to me, K!

 

[Lilianna23]

We haven't heard from OM in a while...or cowboy.... hope they are ok

I was JUST thinking that! I realized when I saw Likes posting coffee memes.

 

[Lilianna23]

Earlier today, I posted something that didn’t make any sense at all, sorry! Voice to text. (I must have a very dirty mind, or on my phone knows my mind pretty well…)

Nice honeybee on garlic chives.

A whole fleet of honeybees….

They are so nice L2… I sweat you’d like them.

OUCH!

OW!

Hey…. OUCH!

Looooookoooouuuut!

My garlic chives got eaten by aphids this year. I'm going to see if I can still save them. Even though I'm allergic to stinging insects, I love to see the bees in the beautiful garlic chive flowers.

 

[Lilianna23]

I’m just makin up for all the hell I put her thru!

(I don’t think I was too bad actually… just a bit misguided, opinionated, had all the right answers, immature, not a good student, smoked too much weed and took too much speed, etc… other than that I was a model teenager… )

The "Mother's Curse"

"May you have children exactly as you were!"

 

[Lilianna23]

You’re making the best choices you can at the time, which is all you can do.

Given everything you’ve gone through recently, give yourself some grace.

Thank you, W! I need to be reminded to do that. I'm not good about giving grace to myself.

 

[Lilianna23]

Thanks for the welcome and heads up on the thread. I'm a huge coffee addict and hate wearing pants. Sounds like a good place

You'll find many coffee addicts here, Tom. Then there are those of us who sit further away from the coffee pot!

Wouldn't they make a great puppy pile, K?

Perfect puppy pile

I love that. ‘It’s bit for everyone’ as code for ‘please leave you don’t for our narrow definition of fifty

Narrow minded...hmmm

There are thousands of threads that will give you what you want....

Stay if you want to meet and talk about everyday stuff, to cool people...or don't

I was talking about ‘wveryday stuff’ by my definition. I won’t again don’t worry

My buddy started raising bees a couple years ago. We get a lot of free honey. But it sounds a lot more difficult than it seems.

My BIL raises bees in Louisiana.
