The Return of the Pink Ranter

[SAT 9,609]

NYC wall to wall nail shops.....

[SAT 9,609]

The boat is a twin inboard. So it never really has to come out for the winter. It had to come out this year because of a broken trim tab. I woulda liked an extra couple of weeks to fish. The marina was told verbally by me to take it out in the last week of November....

Who told you to be absent? How's your folks?

They're good.

They're mentally preparing themselves for a trip to my sister's in January.

Well, actually it's my mom who needs to be mentally prepared.

She hasn't been able to leave home all by herself since her stroke last year.

Her eyesight is bad and if she's left alone in an unfamiliar teritory, she walks into walls and other objects, since her left eye is not working properly.

But I hope she will feel brave enough to not stress herself with this trip.

My father just has to be careful with her, and all should be fine.

I was sad to see some of you had a bad Friday...

If I could I would give you all BIG hugs, but my hugs can only be virtual, tho I know it's not enough...

how far is the trek?

Something about 7 hours by train. But my sister will pick them up from the station, so they won't have to wander around with theit suitcase and all

Now to find a tripod and a place to get a pedicure... In Canada said places are normally in nail shops or spas with the spa ones being more expensive but I don't have to smell the ####### that goes on people's nails. Same down here in the USA?

I'm up to my ears in tripods.

Personally, the nail shop is more affordable and what 99% of the people here use, mostly because the spas usually employ lazy CABA women and the nail shops have hard working Chinese women. If I'm getting a pedicure, I want a vigorous scrub and massage.

The "spa" type places here unless they are very very expensive, are usually just slightly more spread out nail salons with better decor and back rooms for facials and botox.

ADD tricks? Attention Deficit?

Actually, she was pretty good....we had a fairly quiet and conservative holiday.

I'm up to my ears in tripods.

Just exactly what kinda tripods are you guys talkin bout?

I was asking for new tales of this type o episode...

oh...OCD.....her OCD.....

well, that's omnipresent........ she's been pretty good about not touching my desk since I beat her up

[Darnell 8,479]

so, no new tales ?? I was hoping you were able to shift things around a bit, as to keep her occupied overnight.

eggs benedict was yummy... eggs slightly overcooked (prefer them medium and still runny vs done) but the sauce was perfect and used ham from last night so that was tasty as well. NOM NOM NOM...
