I have a serious drinking problem.

My wallet is empty.

Remember when you would get kicked out of a nightclub for experimenting with untested drugs?

Now it is a prerequisite to get in.

Not a nice feeling when someone takes something from you. Eh Scousers??

When asked how they felt about the upcoming revelations, Britian replied “We’d rather blow torch our own nipples off than wade through that tripe”.

Re: 18th July

Greetings friends,

It’s a pleasant 77 degrees, low humidity & I’m hanging out on the deck with the hummingbirds. I just refilled their feeders & they always seem to know
The smoky air has moved out, grateful for that. Made a vegan tomato tart for dinner ~ yum

Pauly, hope your day was a good one!

PQ, good to be off the Abx but what’s the continued swelling all about? Time for some vascular studies I think. Can you get a compression stocking on that foot & leg to help relieve some of the swelling during the day. I’ve used them & they do help. Hope your day worked out well.

Mick, that looks like such an interesting place to visit, good for you! I’m sure you guys will have a grand time hiking & observing!
YB was just complaining this morning that he has 60+ thousand miles on his 4 year old truck. Now he wants to buy himself a car to give the truck a little rest, haha. He can buy whatever he wants to buy as long as he uses his personal funds to pay for it & insure it as well, haha! I’ll bet. You anything he ends up buying a new truck instead, just watch!

Hello to Cyn, hope your day has been better today.

Hello to Det, the busiest guy we know

Sam, Pie & anyone else looking in, hello.

Have a nice night all!

Lav

Re: 18th July

Mae everybody, Mick ,my daughter Lb (the one who moved back from Portland) has the fantasy of buying an RV and just living in it and traveling haha,I don't know how reasonable that idea is,I'd feel like she was homeless or something, her MIL is STILL staying with them in their 1 bedroom Casita so maybe she just wishes she could get away from her,lady needs to figure something out, she talks like she's soooooo broke and can't find a house yet talks about opening a new business so obviously she has some money,PQ,I'm sorry the swelling is still going on,scary hope they figure it out, Lav,I did have a good day yesterday, Kell had a test in the afternoon so I had the boys for a bit,Romeo had surgery last week to remove his top front teeth, something about jaundice as a newborn made his teeth weak and soft and the dentist said it could effect his grown teeth so now he has that cute toothless smile like a 6 year old when they lose their teeth haha,Cyn,I seen Lake Tahoe has another fire? Or Is it old footage? Was just on the news,hope you're good,much love and wishes for a great BF Fryday!

Re: 18th July

Hello all - still chugging away here... musicians and dancers will rehearse today for their performance tomorrow night. I am overseeing a party tomorrow after their performance, then will drive to Napa and back on Sunday. More about that later...

Sending everyone good weather - especially you Mick! Safe travels, and say hello to the puffins for us...

Re: 18th July

Just posted, but I don’t see it here (on my phone..,)

Wishing all well today! I am going into a big weekend... will catch up when I can.

Safe travels, Mick -

Re: 18th July

Re: 18th July

Good evening friends,

Mick, loved the pictures, thanks so much. Have a great time with those cute birds

Cyn, you sound busy. Hope everything is going OK. Take care of yourself :hug:

Pauly, I never heard of that tooth issue but who knows? I hope Romeo is OK & can figure out how to eat without his biting teeth. It’s going to be a while before his permanent teeth grow in, poor kid. Kids are usually pretty resourceful though. Sounds like the MIL needs a boot to her behind, geez. Why would anyone do that to a young couple is beyond me, sad. Is she at least paying part of the rent or contributing to overall expenses? Hope your weekend is good!

PQ, how’s your foot today? Any improvement? I really would look into compression stockings, they help a lot. Hope your weekend is good too!

Det, loved your rodeo pictures! I can honestly say I have never been to one!

Not much going on here.
Have a good night everyone!

Re: 18th July

MAE ALL...

Mick...glad you hydrated with ice lollies before heading out on your adventure. LOL Do the Peskies get preferential pricing with frequent bookings? Things are going good, gently easing myself back into office work. As far as Madam's suggestion of getting a smaller car that could be towed I hope your answer was, great idea! LOL The site looks great and the pics were incredible. Hope you have a great time.

Lav...you refilling the hummingbirds feeder makes me think of my sister. She sure had a strict routine and rules. Would drive her husband crazy. LOL The foot is much improved with little swelling. I've been diligent in keeping it elevated or at least the leg extended. With going into the office this week and being active I've also noticed a big difference. I'm going to go the tension bandage for now as I had a painful experience with compression stockings, probably the wrong compression strength but still leery of them. I am being very diligent in monitoring any changes and am booking my annual physical for September. Will keep on top of it.

Pauly...I have seen lots of people who have done exactly what Lb is thinking of. Some successful, some not. She should Google it and have a look. Her MIL is another issue all together. LOL I figure if there's still swelling in my leg after my physical the Doc will send me for further investigation, at least the infection is gone. I also had my son's top front teeth removed because they were weak and soft. It was due to the fact that I would put him to bed with a bottle of apple juice because I was going through a hellish divorce, looking after my other toddler and had to actually sleep at night. Lesson learned but didn't have any more kids.

TG...rehearsals today, and performance tomorrow :yay: the end is in sight. Got me curious about your quick trip to Napa tomorrow. Safe travels to you.

With all the smoke in the city from the BC wildfires some tennis lessons had to be cancelled with make up classes this weekend. That is definitely on the prog coord as I am not turning on my work computer this weekend. My son has been gardening out at his property in Strathmore and has rented plots to others. We're going to do a road trip to check it all out. First time he's asked me to so looking forward to it.

Shout out to the gang....have a good night all...:smile:PPQP

Re: 18th July

Mae all -

PPQ, actually this is just the beginning of 3+ weeks of total chaos and 18 hour days... but by August 16th, this season will be done and dusted... really looking forward to that. So please pardon me of I am not on as often as usual for the next weeks...

Mick, will go have a look at your pics... they must be wonderful. PPQ, good luck,with the foot, Lav, good luck,with the weather! Say hello,to your him,ingbirds for me, I miss them, Pauly, so great to hear from you - hoping that the MIL moves it along soon..., Det, best of luck, I hope business is picking up,for you.

Okay all, I'm off to do my 4th shift of the day, then will nod off. Sending all love ---

Re: 18th July

Mae everybody, Mick loved the pics Lav,hah she just told them last night she needs to be put on the lease so she has proof of residence to open a bank account here,she's got balls and I'm afraid it's gonna backfire on Lb and her bf,that little house is made for a couple not a trio and tbh if I were the owner I'd be irritated, the house sits right behind the owner ers house so they see everything that goes on,I don't know why she didn't stay in Portland with her other son and his wife and destroy their happiness instead haha! Seems thats where she wanted to be anyways since she bitches about Vegas so much,meh I'm staying out of it.PQ,his teeth looked bad from the moment they came in so I'm sure there's some truth to what the dentist said but could be the milk they gave him in his bottles when he was little, he dropped the bottle pretty early tho so who knows,just thinking my mom let one of my brothers drink a bottle til his was 4! He'd probably still e using it if me and my other brother hadn't broke him off it haha,Cyn,waves to you friend,hope everyone has a great BF day!

Re: 18th July

Greetings Abbers,

Mick, where was your hat????
Thanks for the pics, they were great. Keep on having a good time

PQ, glad to hear your leg is improving.
I want you to know I have an agreement with the hummingbirds. I keep their feeders filled & they show up every evening & put on a free show haha!!
Take the weekend off lady & enjoy yourself

Cyn, August 16 can’t come soon enough, right? So much work goes into the preparation. I hope people appreciate that! Get lots of rest & don’t wear yourself out. Today was real nice but tomorrow the heat & humidity return, oh well.

Pauly, that woman sounds really obnoxious. Why would anyone do something like that. I imagine he son back in Portland is rejoicing that she’s moved out of his place.
I’ve always been a bit of a tyrant where it comes to kids & brushing their teeth. You can’t start. Them too young, that’s for sure! I told my kids the dog chewed up their bottles & that was the end of that, haha.
I heard last night that my SIL will be in Vegas the first week of August for an IT conference. He doesn’t drink & I can’t imagine him gambling, Lol

Hello to Det, Sam & Pie.
Have a good night all!
