Morning, peoples.Swimming again. Thought my life was over earlier due to oncoming traffic that doesn't believe in hydroplaning. Just a mild heart attack though. No contact. No injuries

Streets in my neighborhood are narrow, so when cars park on the street, there isn't room for 2 cars to pass each other... so the rules are: If the car is parked on your side, you wait for the oncoming car to pass, then go around it.

Well... on yesterday's dog walk 2 ladies got into a shouting match because one of them failed to yield. They didn't hit one another... just came close. And they stopped window to window and yelled at each other long enough for me to walk half a block to get to my house. They were still yelling when I went inside.

Black lady in the Mercedes failed to yield. White lady in the Hyundai wasn't having it. Black lady didn't think she did anything wrong... she was wrong again for thinking she wasn't wrong. Had they collided, I would have been an excellent witness.

Was able to get the 60 minute walk done in 51 minutes with Tank. Rain started just as we got back to the house.

Nice to hear, Danm... I think this gig will be good for you, brother. Nights did a number on me when I had to work them.

Raindrops are falling here. Puppy dog is a sad little boy... he loves his morning walks. Will have to get him out there when I can.

The only thing that keeps us from walking is lightening. Pupper has a “double coat” so rain doesn’t bother her. I have rain pants and a rain coat….

Called out of work again today. 3 days in a row. First time in 24 years I called out for actually being sick. I usually save sick days for nice days, days I can use to get things done.
Not now. After a week of feeling like crap, my wife finally dragged me to the urgent care she works at. Effn' pneumonia.
It sucks

I need to invest in a raincoat, as much as it rains here... but ol' Tank is not a fan of rain at all. He'll hold his potty until he's about to pop when it's raining. lol

If we get caught out in it, he shakes off every 10 steps. He's a SoCal dog. lol

Hope ya feel better jgraz. I had stomach issues last couple days. Not sure wtf, but my damn lower back hurt, too. Handful of dumps and a whole lotta fartin' and I feel much better. 😰

Golf umbrella with wind release opening, IMO, a rain suit is too hot for the South East.

After you become filly acclimated, F'it, just let it rain, it's typicaly warm rain anyway. 🍺

Got a front coming thru. **F and humid today. Gonna rain into the night, then tomorrow will only get up to 79-80F!

Wife hit Trader Joes before I got out bed. Just finished our Costco Run. Only $120!!!

Going to replace the laundry room light fixture with either new fluorescent bulbs or LED if the new bulbs don't work. Hope I can do it myself if it requires a new fixture. Don't want to pay my electrician $150-200, if I can avoid it.

Also going to do like a half hour work on my aquarium to add some new rocks and an inside tank, circulation pump. Almost bought 4-5 new fish yesterday, but decided not to spend $25 each when a local breeder sells them for half the price. Just waiting for them to be available again...

Other than that, My wife works a four-day work week and has today off so we are just sticking together all day and basically just going to hang out together as usual.

I'm surprised the receipt checker didn't send you back to up those numbers, those giant shopping carts/buggies are there to be filed up. 😂

Wazzup.
Sitting at the tire shpo. Just now getting my winter tires off my daily driver. At least I can sit outside and have a cigar. Rainy as all get out but my tire shpo protects me from the rain.

Dang, Brother. I hope you recover 100% and very soon. I will say a prayer for you. And a prayer of gratitude for your wife, you’ve got a winner there!

Yup, totally sucks!

I’ve had, what my doctor called “walking pneumonia” and was out of work for almost two weeks. My old working place didn’t have sick leave (…not required by State law…) but since I was a salaried employee, didn’t lose any pay. Of course my boss wasn’t too pleased but whatcha gonna do? I had a deep, rough cough and that wouldn’t be too conducive to talking to customers or being around co-workers. I must say, the meds I was given, sure worked! 👍
