What's on your Tuesday Menu?

Good Tuesday Morning Gang. Got home from work yesterday to find we didn't have internet. As of right now it is still out. Apparently it is just affecting the town of Putnam. I've been wanting to look at a different provider anyways so now may be the time.

Not much going on at work today just a small training class on boiler combustion for some new hires. My PM is going to the Putnam ash landfill for a Yellow Iron rodeo which is basically just big payloaders. Our tipping floor operator is going to be representing Lisbon.

QOTD: Speaking of rodeos have you ever been to one? I've been to two of them years ago. It was fun watching the different events they had.

B: coffee and protein shake

L: not sure since I forgot my soup

D: Italian chicken sausage and spaghetti squash

Hitting the Y then finishing some house stuff.

Have a great day everyone!!

Good mornin y'all.

Chilly mornin in my part of Texas, 37°. Not much to do today. A cousin of my grandmas needs a ride to PT. That's the only thing we have to do.

my appointment with the pain clinic was a **** show as per the usual. The NP I saw last week lied through her teeth. It's a long story but my regular NP is trying to fix it, supposedly. I don't have a lot of faith in this place. The one NP who listened quit because he said it was a toxic place to work. He was a good provider. Can't say the same for the others. My current one is ok but still pretty new so time is needed on that one.

My shoulder started hurting worse last night. I was weak and put some aspercreme on it. I don't do it often but damn I wish I could do it daily lol.

QOTD: never been to one myself. Just not my thing. I'd find myself rooting for the animals instead.

B: egg burrito and coffee

L: ???

D: thinking fish.

my nieces pumpkins and Tange of course. She is such a baby.

The meme didn't attach!

QOTD- I've been to lots of rodeos, but it's definitely not fun for most of the animals.

I've been procrastinating at work, I have this simple job to finish but I've been avoiding working on it. I need to just get it done.

There are some sane people out there. I particularly liked Kenny Loggins response to the orange one using his song Danger Zone in his AI generated video of him wearing a crown and piloting a jet that he was bombing No Kings protesters with **** He basically said there is no us and them, we are all Americans and we need to find a way to come together, rather than divide us.

Have a great day everyone!

Never been to a rodeo in person... but it didnt stop m from fantasizing I could stay on a bucking bull lol.

2 tell the truth my Mongolian/ Hungarian heritage makes me a natural rider - I rode and regularly jumped a horse bareback as a five year old - had no problem ever doing gymnastic stunts like a walkover on a gently trotting horse's broad back ... enjoy horse archery as well .

Regarding bulls - being able to endlessly stay on a mechanical bar bull does NOT mean U can ride " Killer " lol.

I have mixed feelings about performing animals particularly rodeo ones ... those bulls are bred 2 buck and no doubt they enjoy their pampered lives and bucking the PITA off their backs ... barrel racers' and rodeo queens' mounts are also very valuable and cared for ...

The sheep ridden by kids, the roped calves ... I doubt theyre enthusiastic.

Its kind of like the dilemma of heritage breeds... theyre domesticated and bred for meat production - they cant survive on their own and without farmers pasture raising ( and eventually ethically slaughtering ) them these ancient beautiful breeds would not survive .

My Persian cats always enjoy riding in the car and excitedly going to the store ( where they ride in the basket of the carriage ) and the bank ( walking w a leash n harness) and being made a huge fuss over. They literally SMILE .

In a tiny way theyre performing animals too ... I think some doggies love agility tests and other pets love comforting sick kids and old folks in nursing homes.

Social stimulation for a pet and safe supervised outdoor activities in my opinion beat being left home alone and bored.
