Finally Friday's Menu
Happy Friday Gang and this picture while I know I've posted it before is 100% going to be me at 3:30 today. This is what I find when I'm driving up the access road to the plant this morning. I swear I can't make this crap up.
Some nitwit must have been partying at the turn around on the access road and decided to park their car under one of the ash trailers. What's the first thing I get to do when I get in call the State Police. If they can't or won't get it towed, we are going to bring the loader down and pull the darn thing out. People around here just blow my mind sometimes. I know there is a lot of drug use in the area and since the access road is over a mile long and technically a private road so not patrolled by the cops people do whatever they want. At least I'm back in the office.
Come hell or highwater I'm going blueberry picking tomorrow morning and then we are going to go look at a Chevy S-10 I saw on my way home last night from work. I called the guy and it is a 2000 with only 108K miles on it. He's the second owner and is asking $3000 or best offer. It's also a 5 speed which Irvin likes. He needs a small run around vehicle instead of all the big trucks that suck up fuel.
QOTD: One last sports one. Would you rather play Basketball or Baseball? I was never really good at either of them in gym class, but I would choose Baseball because there were times that I did have fun playing it with family and friends.
B: Tall cold glass of milk I just wasn't feeling coffee or tea this morning. 2 egg bites
L: Bye Felica sandwich its a roasted chicken with avocado, red onions and a spicy sauce
D: Not 100% sure but probably some sort of seafood
Irvin has racing tonight with the grandkids so we will skip the Y.
Have a great Friday and weekend everyone!!!
on 8/8/25 5:17 am - Amarillo, TX
Good mornin y'all.
not just a whole lot happening today. We are going to go buy a portable a/c for next year. Also I need to pick up prescriptions. We may go to the thrift store.
I am feeling rough. The heat is just a pain in the arse. 103° is supposed to be our high today, yuck! Waiting to hear what the pain clinic docs think of the myelogram results. Have I ever mentioned how much I hate waiting? lol
i have decided to try wire wrapping again. Ha...we'll see. I had someone suggest and I found some well priced wire so it will be interesting.
QOTD: according to the work it'd be basketball due to my height. It's my most asked thing. If I were to pick it'd be basketball. I used to be good at it.
B: protein bar and coffee
L: burrito
D: ??????
a meme (which might send me to hell) at the bottom and some old pieces of a design of mine and an older one of opal!
Good morning all and Happy Fry-Day,
It's Fry-Day, it's Fry-Day. This is the day that fries the week solid and unlocks the weekend wildness. Ok, maybe they're not so wild anymore.
This morning, I'm picking up Roeser's Donuts, working out, meeting with my sponsor, and then running a meeting with him. After I have lunch with a couple of close friends. The rest of the day should be juggling pressing to-do's. Tonight, Paula is coming over and we may do second Fridays at the Fine Arts Building.
Emily, for those that remember, popped back into my day to day yesterday. She was borderline breakdown yesterday and I spent the morning over at her place with my pooch. I was really worried and her sister called me freaking out, too.
QOTD- I'm a baseball guy. Played for 12 years, umped for 5 years, Fourth Generation Cubs' fan, and die hard Cubs' fan for 45 years. Playing catcher for those years has some responsibility for my physical problems and hip replacement.
B: Oikos Triple zero cherry, strawberries, coffee.
L: Dining out
D: Whatever the SO wants.
HW: 371 SW(8/9/21): 324 CW: 208 lbs 0 lbs til goal of skin reduction surgery. I'm still looking for a new plastic surgeon.
"I wonder if pizza thinks about me, too."
Good morning, everybody!
Happy Fri-Yay! This should be a good weekend. Rod Stewart tonight, our dinner party tomorrow night, and if I can get the pressure washer started I will pull ahead of Jennifer in the Great 2025 OH House Wash-Off. Other than the, I have to continue to prepare for the Chicago Triathlon in a little over two weeks and my fishing trip next weekend.
The concert is in a suburban facility. I much prefer to go to concerts in the suburbs because of cost and ease of travel. The two arena shows that I still want to see are The Foo Fighters and Guns and Roses. Other than that, I am mostly sticking to small venues, where parking is not outrageous.
We got sushi last night and I thought it would be good with my tooth, but it wasn't. The pieces were just too big and chewy. Its still in and holding on for four more days, hopefully.
QOTD: I'm going to go with Baseball. Too many people throwing unmentionables at the basketball players, these days.
Breakfast: Bagel
Lunch: Pasta
Dinner:Chili
Have a great day, all!

Hope the concert was awesome. Rod Stewart has such an interesting, enjoyable voice. Haven't been to a concert since the Moody Blues back when they were all still alive and before Pitch Correct. It was nice and also sad to hear their aged voices. Time marches on.
Crossing fingers your tooth holds on. Tooth pain is the worst. Hang in there

What an idiot! Parking under a trailer is not a good idea.
QOTD- I played basketball in High School, and never was good at baseball or softball. I have a weenie arm and can't hit to save my life. I can'****ch baseball on TV I call i****ching the grass grow.
Football is back, last night my Seahawks played the Raiders they led for most of the game but it ended up as a tie. No OT in pre-season games. I wasn't sure I'd be able to watch it as it was supposed to be on the NFL Network but my local station broadcast it. But I'm at the mercy of antennas and for some reason channel 12 doesn't come in very well. I even added another antenna, but sometimes it just pixelates and freezes, very annoying.
It's supposed to get hot this weekend, highs in the 90's close to 100 on Monday. We don't do heat in the PNW, honestly our summers are really just 2-3 month droughts.
I've been on a smoked salmon kick, I've been eating it for lunch and dinner.
Have a great day everyone!
