Well, great man.

Fun excursion kiboshed by Mrs. T-B. from afar, zero advance communication AGAIN man.

 

We announced (in painful Spanish) our plans for tomorrow, announce we man.

Mama-Mrs.-T-B. talked to Mrs. T-B. talked to Sister-Mrs.-T-B. yak yak yak like wildfire man.

Nephew-Mrs.-T-B. recovering from undisclosed illness and not to travel much all this week, we just learn man.

This means that only Papa-Mrs.-T-B., at most, can accompany us on road trip, sad man.

We planned this as a treat to include shopping, desired by Mama-Mrs.-T-B. man.

 

We're really displeased to have been excluded from this knowledge that affects planning, sigh man.

This kiboshes much of the rest of the week, too, grrrr man.

Are we merely a placeholder till Mrs. T-B. returns, huh man?

Are WE not part of this family, and also the chief host, huh man?

 

A better plan for your birthday might be a solo day out.

 

If you were the Dane, it would be out tool shopping or a trip to the gun range.

 

What kind of man wants to spend his birthday with his in-laws on a road trip?

3/2/18  E-filed N-400 under 5 year rule

3/26/18 Biometrics

7/2019-12/2019 (Yes, 16- 21 months) Estimated time to interview MSP office.

We, see man.

Our idea, see man.

Papa-Mrs.-T-B.'s first and probably only trip out of Ecu, see man.

Mama-Mrs.-T-B. wants to go shopping, available we man.

They've been unfailingly helpful and generous during our trips to Ecu, si man.

 

Trouble is, Nephew-Mrs.-T-B. just finished respiratory treatment before coming here, sick he man.

He's supposed to take it easy for a week, see man.

Complicating matters is a Saharan dust intrusion over the next 2 days, cough man.

He should therefore stay inside, logic man.

One adult has to stay with him & Mini-B., obviously man.

 

We could go just with Papa-Mrs.-T-B., we & senior he man.

Trouble is, he doesn't know how to shop for himself, no man.

 

We will present these alternatives to Mama-Mrs.-T-B., present we man:

 

1.  We & Papa-Mrs.-T-B. do original itinerary ourselves, we & senior he man.

2.  All of us go on a far shorter outing, thus enabling shopping man.

Many.  We & Mama-Mrs.-T-B. go on far shorter outing, enabling far more efficient shopping man.

The first thing I do every morning is go to the coffee pot...

 

If I ever have a maid, that's the only requirement I have, coffee should be ready when I wake up...

Coffee machines with clocks in them have existed since before I was born. 

 

My auto correct/filll made clocks into “clean” and then a word that rhymes with clocks.

Silly Trophie...

Prime is good when you pair it with Alexa. The kid uses it to help with homework. I can verbally control the lights and AC, Alexa is in my car, etc...

 

I can live with 99 bucks a year. But they raised the price. I think Amazon is going to peak, if it hasn't already...

It has a time limit.  They cut me off earlier this year.  It used to be cheaper than 59, maybe 49 or 39.  That was a good deal.

 

I have some ethical issues with how Amazon handles their warehouse staffing.  I rarely order anything from there any more and when I do, I just use the slow free shipping.
