Rant on a Hot Tin Roof

[TBoneTX 45,304]

Exciting Sunday report, see man:

 

Did not leave the casa today, technically perfect Sunday man.

Where was Sunday's weather during GS-ing yesterday, huh huh huh and grrr man?

Despite dire weather forecasts, no rain at casa, sunny most of day man.

 

We decided to mow front lawn pre-emptively, rain forecast all week man.

Did so at noon, early bird avoids rain man.

It killed us and we died, bye we man.

 

After lunch served by Mrs. T-B. and a 2-hour nap, we embarked on laundry, job of husband man.

Mercifully, Mrs. T-B.'s junk constituted only one load this week, Someone Upstairs likes us man.

 

After the day of no rain, we decided to mow back lawn pre-emptively, rain forecast all week man.

Did so at half-past Many (2+2+2) o'clock, most of area in shadow man.

It almost killed us and we almost died, almost bye we man.

However, completed job in probably record time, given recent removal of swingset man.

We are brilliant to have 2 sets of mow-lawning duds, prescient we man.

 

All chores finally subdued, subdue we man.

Amazingly, Mrs. T-B. is allegedly almost packed for Ecu, assiduous she man.

She is taking Many (2+2) checked bags, 2 allotted each for her & Mini-B. man.

She says that Many (2+1) are exactly Many pounds, the very limit man.

The Many'th is Many (2x2x2x2x2+[2x2x2]) lbs., room for more stuff man.

 

We know that the bag-scales at the airport are rigged, set artificially wrong man.

We already have a vivid mind-movie of the flurry to lighten all of them, panic she man.

We are tempted to bring a small empty suitcase in which to take home the jetsam, sigh man.

I have been out doing errands for redneck all day, I love him very much and I know he's in agony but I'm not sure I'll be able to get through another 11 days of his constant moaning/groaning/shoot me now requests without applying much duct tape to his gob....

Oh boy. My Husband has a T shirt that says "Silence is golden...Duct Tape is Silver..."

The MIL flunked her Tilt Test. I dunno where they are going from here. Reports to the Cardiologist, who sends it to the GP, and maybe someday they will have a plan.

 

Her Direct TV box in the lounge is toast (Yaaaay!!!) so now if she want to watch, she has to go to the bedroom. They can get here until tomorrow afternoon. Peace and quiet, for a change.

 

I finally finished up in the back yard. Other than watering, and fluffing about, I'm done.

So what's bronze? A dirty old sock?

My ankle is doing better, is purple but the swelling is going down!

I'm so grateful for it, and I still have five days to recover further before my husband arrives.

 

I considered applying for a tourist VISA again and quickly realized how ridiculous that thought was.

I'm Mexican, I overstayed a few days in November last year/got denied entry and I have a U.S husband, so, yeeeah.

I can see the officer laughing at my face, well internally, because he/she is classy. 

 

So i'm just waiting slightly impatiently, almost at the five month mark. 

I feel that going back to Cozumel will make me feel better, if anything. I seem to be struggling in Mexico City,

since this city is trying to kill me, literally.

That sucks, I do know how the man moaning and groaning is so I definitely can commiserate. My ex was complaining left right and center. I forced him to the hospital for them to find out he had a heart attack. Now I wish I would have left him to his own demise.
