They are much too identifying. 

 

I am gearing up to get another, my 4th. It feels weird to number them because the first was so small and the next two were quite big....

How great is my neighbor "R". It's alternate side street cleaning today. 

She moves 2 of my cars for me, now I'm watching her on ring, she's dragging my empty garbage cans back to my front yard for me. 

Gotta get her a gift card for Christmas...

Now that is a great neighbour. My new neighbours are pretty nice an older lady and taking care of her mother. We try to help them out when we can. I sent the Hillbilly over to mow the lawn before one of our stuck up neighbours call the city on her. 

I bring her over eggs and help her when I can too. She likes to treat the kids too.

Waiting on results for Herself's biopsy. Somehow, I had the idea it would be done by needle aspiration, but it wasn't. She has 10 stitches on her shoulder, and 6 high on one of her rear legs.  No cone of shame required, for once being a bit rotund is working in her favor, as she can't reach either spot to lick or bite at them.  It will be at least another 6 days before we get results, so it's going to be a long week.  She is still giving me the hump, I am the one that took her in there so she is not speaking to me.

 

Not done a bit of holiday hall decking this year. Simply not in the mood to drag all the stuff out and do  it. Maybe later. 

 

They like to removed them that way if it is something to worry about they are already gone. 

 

I know that feeling if it wasn't for the kids I would skip it this year and that is a big indicator that all is not well for me as Christmas is my favourite.

Wow so much snow tyre info-thanks for that! Interesting.

Thankfully I already have a full set of premium winter tyres ready to go on, I just need to be able to get an appointment to get them put on.

Hoping to go out for lunch with my friend Connie today, I might see if she doesn't mind taking me to the travel agents to pick up some brochures

So, you work with my mother?

 

I got a larger forearm tattoo, she gets off the plane and tells me it is awful, ugly, and no one would like it.

That's where mine is, its a maple leaf and apparently repulsive!

Got almost everything for my daughter for xmas.  Shes currently in Disneyland with dad and other family members.  I took today off work after 44 hours.  Tomorrow is a work xmas party and i may go find myself an ugly sweater to wear since mine likely doesnt fit, and i dont know what else to wear.

she felt the need to give me the most disgusted and disapproving look when she noticed that I had a tattoo.

Smile and tell her, "The only difference between us is that I don't care that you DON'T have a tattoo, si ma'am."

Hoping for negative results, in the medical sense, si Eh ma'am.

 

We took Cat T-B. to vet today, unhappy miu man.  Vet sucked blood for fructosamine and something else, vampire activity man.  Lab results in days, wait man.  Differential diagnosis is enzyme malproduction by hosed pancreas, irritable bowel syndrome, or similar, vet lingo man.  Bill to retrieve Cat T-B. from vet = $Many00 almost right on the button, ouch man.

Scintillating Saturday repartee, yawn man.

We shall up-liven it, awaken man.

 

We & Mini-B. went to the "Home Despot for Kids" activity, monthly man.

This project was as easy as last month's wasn't, straightforward man.

Mini-B. expressed extreme pleasure at his accomplishment, proud we also man.

 

Then went GS-ing/ES-ing, see separate report man.

 

Mrs. T-B. prepared for & went on overnight out-of-town yakfest with amigas, yak yak yak YAK they man.

We & Mini-B. immediately invited multiple rubias to the casa, bachelor heaven man.

Cops came out twice, much revelry/frolicking/cavorting man.

Amidst this, we did our two usual laundry and one dish load, responsible we man.

[TBoneTX 45,364]

Saturday GS/ES report, see man:

 

Excursion began promisingly, dud-thudded in middle, and offered token redemption on last stop, oh well man.

A record Many (2+1) -- yes, Many (2+1) -- were phantom, should be State Jail felony man.

Why do they advertise (and in the newspaper) if they have no intent of performing, huh man?

 

The take, meager-yet-satisfying man:

  -- blouse for Mrs. T-B. = $1, deal man

  -- double-pocket Wrangler shirt on hanger/cleaned = $1, steal man

  -- new-in-package Playtex cleaning-gloves; half of large pack Vanity Fair dinner napkins; Many (2+1) 

       raggy warshcloths = $1, steal man

Total = $Many ($2+1)

I talked to a man from the DR yesterday.  He said to stay away from areas in the Capital city, don't walk around with jewelry on, and if you're on a resort, just stay on the resort. 

Yup, I leave in the morning(flying out 6:30am) & will be staying on resort(unless on organised excursion) probably I'll be mostly relaxing on my rooftop suite in my personal jacuzzi ordering room service.

I'm applying to college to study massage therapy starting January-sat a reading/writing test yesterday(they wouldn't accept my high school certificates as they are ancient Scottish history)....thankfully I scored really high(feels good).

I should be finishing packing but still awaiting a couple of deliveries from Amazon-long story!

We spread Ryan's ashes at our local park(as per his request) with the family on Friday.......it all feels so bizarre/awful.

I'm glad to hear you are ready to go and have a wee holiday.  I hope it does you a world of good to get away from the grey skies and wintry weather. 0630! Man what time you have to get to the airport! Not a morning person, so I would have to just stay up

 

Well done on your college plans! I don't know if I could pass tests like those today, it's been ages since I was at at school.  Like years and years.

 

I've heard Amazon is a bit backed  up with all the Black Friday shipping they have had to do. I hope yours gets to you in time if you are taking it with you. 

 

Now that must have been so sad to to, I admire you for your courage, Mrs.
