Thursday Feels Like Monday

i took the day off yesterday, ND I’m putting in for half a day off today.

my mother and sister

Yesterday we just kinda hung out. We went out and about in the morning and afternoon. Last night I cooked on the grill last night.

it was off and on rain and looks like more of the same today.

Russia invaded Ukraine this morning.

Safe Arrival

My mother and sister arrived yesterday. They seem to like the apartment pretty well. My mother said it was much larger than she expected

I’m taking the day off work today. Nothing special planned. It rained a little on my morning dog walk.

In the news, Russia says it is looking for a diplomatic solution. The west seems to be ignoring this and threatening sanctions. Options are: make Ukraine a netural country, or do not let them jioin NATO. Ukraine joining NATO is understandiblly not an option for Russia.

Today is the ex wifes birthday. Happy Birthday ex wife!

Busy Week Monday

Good morning!

it was a good weekend. I got the apartment nice and clean, I fixed the gate, which was saggy. I repotted my avocado tree. I went diving and I went to the beach.

The water was rough and the visibility was poor yesterday. But it was still a nice dive, my first in about 3 weeks.

Today it’s back to work and tomorrow my mother and sister arrive to stay in the apartment.

I hope you have a good week!

See you tomorrow!

Helluva 10 Days

I’ve had a hell of a 10 days.

Last Saturday, (not day-before-yesterday, a week before that) I went to one of my best friends’s funeral.

Last Sunday, my wife told me she doesn’t love me anymore and wants a divorce.

Last week I went to a counsellor with the wife and felt like they were both ganged up on me.

I kind of had a meltdown at work after that because I’ve been feeling ignored, not part of the team, and when everyone, everyone except me. left to go to a meeting. I figure my same insanity that makes me invisible at work is the same insanity that makes my wife want to leave.

Last Friday, I took my cat to the vet and found out she had lymphoma (cancer) and there was nothing that could be done to save her. She wasn’t in pain, so I brought her home to live her life. She almost immediately disappeared and I assume she’s gone forever.

Things probably can’t get worse, but it might. I have an “executive physical” tomorrow, A very intensive physical exam. I think I’m ok but you never know.

But overall, I gotta be near the valley floor, sstarting to climb high again. Have a good week!

Banana Harvest 2

Yesterday we harvested banana batch #2. Our first batch was very good. We had another batch start, but the bananaweight broke the stalk, and, well, this could have been batch number three.

It was a good weekend, seems long, which is good. Good weather lately. I’m  not really ready for the workweek though.

I also hung up a shelf that holds pots and pans for the wife this weekend. She likes it, and that makes me happy. The Wife was all busy this weekend, cooking and cleaning and buzzing around while I just kind of lazed around and took naps.

Have a GREAT week!

Feels Like Monday, But It’s Not!

Feels like Monday to me, because I was off yesterday. Had a good time with my cousins. Hadn’t seen them in two years.

Went out running this morning wirh my new shoes. The soles didn’t fall off.

The weatherman calls for rain today, but I’m taking the scooter, ’cause I don’t believe him.

I think it’s going to be a great day!

You have a great day too!

Thursday Again

Here we are on a Thursday. I have nothing to talk about this morning. The sun is coming up in about 15 minutes, the chickens are squawking, the birds are singing and it;s very quiet. I can hear some neighbors arguing and cussing in a backyard far far away.
Tomorrow, my mother in law arrives, The Wife us very excited and I am too. A week or so after that, the father in law arrives. We get along good.
And that’s it. Thinking about taking the car today because of alleged thunderstorms this afternoon. then i’ll be stuck in traffic… Maybe I’ll just risk it and ride. I don’t know yet…
Have a wonerful day!

One Day & A Wakeup! Plus A Long Ramble

Tomorrow we go to Mexico! I don’t even know why I’m even bothering going to work today!

It was  a 50/50 weekend.

We didn’t go to a wedding on Saturday, we’re going to a wedding in Mexico.

The wife worked Sunday, she came home with sandwiches, she accidently gave me the wrong sandwich, I ate it. She got super super mad at me for not noticing. I was watching American football, not paying attention along those lines, her sandwich was completely different than mine. I should have noticed. One time at Subway, I ordered a chicken sandwich. I ate it and it was excellent. After that, the worker came up and asked me if my sandwich had chicken on it. I said I don’t know, but it was excellent. They found a piece of chicken in the  microwave and figured it was supposed to go in my sandwich. I thought and thought, but couldn’t remember if there was chicken in my sandwich or not. But I remember it was good. the other day we went to a restaurant, I ordered a beef sandwich. I was terrible. Tasted like charcoal, literally. The manager came over when I was almost done, and asked how everything was, I said terrible, tastes like charcoal. She gave me a weird look, ’cause I was woofin’ it down. I said “Hey, you asked”. I have these two teeth that gets food stuck between them. When I got home and jammed a toohpick between those teeth and got out the hunk of meat from that sandwich I could taste it again. It was terrible tasting.  Charcoal. I don’t care about food. Eating and sleeping are wastes of time, and if I didn’t have to do them, I wouldn’t.

Football-wise his weekend was opposite of last weekend. Almost all my teams lost. And the Redskins got hammered like they hammered last week.

Did you ever see the movie “The Matrix”? Where the cat walks by twice and Neo says “Whoa, deja vu”? It’s hapening to me, our cat, Ashy, keeps walking by. She’s doing laps, in the laundry door, through the kitchen, out the dining room door to the back porch and under my table. Again and again, like the Matrix movie.

Let me out of here, I gotta go to work.

Have a good week, I might not post tomorrow, I’ll be going to the airport.
