A friend of mine just called me. Told me that they were very upset that they haven't been able to do anything on their bucket list.
I told her to change the B to a F and she would feel much better about it.

This is good advice, I'll remember this one

Good morning, SA! You should be getting up about now.

I'm not a morning person. At all. Since I retired, it mostly doesn't matter.

Good morning Lillianna, yes I was up and getting ready for work. At the office and it is now 7:21am. We worked till 8pm last night.

It is another beautiful morning and little overcast but no rain expected.

Follow the trail!!

I know some forensic engineers. But they are called in when something breaks… they find out why and how…

Yes, exactly, follow the trail.
I investigate corrupt government officials, extortion cases, mostly sexual extortion, large scale and high value fraud cases etc.
I have a knack in tracing the offenders and following the money.

How do you get a country girl’s attention? A tractor.

Why are elevator jokes so classic and good? They work on many levels.

My wife asked me to stop singing “Wonderwall” to her. I said, “Maybe…”

Want to know why nurses like red crayons? Sometimes they have to draw blood.

What would the Terminator be called in his retirement? The Exterminator.

My wife asked me to go get 6 cans of Sprite from the grocery store. I realized when I got home that I had picked 7 up.

You’re American when you go into a bathroom and when you come out, but what are you while you’re in the bathroom? European.

I lost my job at the bank on my first day. A woman asked me to check her balance, so I pushed her over.

I told my doctor I heard buzzing, but he said it’s just a bug going around.

Thank you for stocking up my dad jokes arsenal.

I’d be great at that job! Nothing to hide. It’s a valid skill set.

I really enjoy my work, catching people out in their own lies during an investigation is intoxicating. The look on their faces when they realize, in that moment, that the jig is up and their ass is grass. Priceless.

I've cracked open a new decade and I've slapped it on the grill!
Order up and on the house!

Okay...today is going to be a seriously long day. It's now 9:40 and energy level is suddenly very low. I feel like doing anything else, except working.

The Western Washington Fair is like the 6th largest fair in the nation! I actually met my husband there!

Fond memories then Lili xx

So don’t just retire

 

[Greylag]

That’s a lot of servings and could take you out of the gym for to long
How do you feel today ?

Why out of the gym?

 

[SecretAdmirer584]

So don’t just retire

Hey Greylag. Nope, no retirement for me yet. I like my job too much still.
I just need to take a break in our canteen to re-energize for the rest of the day.
My energy levels will be back in no time.

 

[Greylag]

My mom and sister spent the night with me and my dad called this am. His sugar was low. They are watching everything and they are "taking good care of me"

My sister is taking my mom to see him today and i will tomorrow after work. We will just continue to take it day by day

@Missk_2022 firstly you and your parents are in my prayers.

Secondly it is good someone is taking good care of you. They need that and you need it too.

Lastly from this side of the water there are high kisses and cold noses

Good but take it from me that work is over rated and you will know when it’s time… don’t just stop… ease into it. I still do one day a week

Thank you for the advice. I'll definitely keep it in mind when the time comes.

Proving to be a busy week. Dealing with the fence on Sunday. Monday night chairing a meeting. Yesterday worked for nearly 12 hours and tonight our community meeting to Chair. Did I say I was nearly retired.

Sounds excitng.

But I’ll bet its like every day stuff too.

 

[Wonderer67]

I'll think about that. I hate selling stuff because I don't like randos at my house.

Maybe an eBay specialist? Or a consignment place or an antique dealer?

 

[Wonderer67]

Sometimes I'm just not in the mood for all the faffery.

Well sometimes I’m in the mood for nice longer song!

As @likes2watchU said, variety. It’s the spice of somethin…

 

[SecretAdmirer584]

Sounds excitng.

But I’ll bet its like every day stuff too.

Yes, I also deal with smaller cases, theft, abuse of power, workplace harassment etc.
Even individuals and lower level employees deserve justice.

Anything LZ gets my vote!

I think I asked you, but have you seen the documentary that made waiter this year about their warily years?

It was excellent. Lots of interviews - even some older ones w John bonham. I’d recommend it.

Wife and I saw it in the theater.

I’ll have to dig up
Some old pics. My wife dated a rock photographer in the late 70s (she’s 10 yo than I) and she took some phenomenal pics of LZ herself.

You must have sent all your hot weather west! We've been roasting here with 90+ weather since Friday last week. I need to mow the yards but I'm not going to do it in this heat. Supposedly we get some relief tomorrow.

Hope you do! That’s really too hot to mow. Unless you do it in the early evening.

(Or early morning… runs and hides… I know you’re not a morning person! )

 

[Wat_Tyler]

I haven’t caught up… but how’d it go??

He is behaving . . . for now . . . .

 

[Wonderer67]

Are we the same person w the same musical tastes???

My brother from another mother.

And the asshattery.



Never forget about the asshattery.
