COLD DARK ROOM

[CarolM]

Me too. But I can't imagine becoming incapacitated or unable to do all the physical stuff I do now. I'd hate to have to be put into a 'home.' Maybe if that time comes, I'll be ready to meet my maker.

I feel the same.

 

[CarolM]

All my outside work is finished and now I'm waiting for my beef strips to simmer a bit more, then I'll thicken the gravy and have it with mashed potatoes and green beans. Misty has already been fed, the pushy broad.

Lol. What is it about our dogs that they always manage to get fed first. We had lasagne ( bought from a shop) and my vegetarian son had macaroni and cheese.

 

[CarolM]

Making me feel hungry
I'd better go and see what I can microwave cook!

Do you know that your post about cornflakes a couple weeks back had me getting a box. Lol now during the week I will sometimes have a bowl of cornflakes in the evening.

Shame. Tough decision but one only you can make.

It's been a great visit

 

[ZEROPILOT]

I think I speak for everyone when I say we certainly hope your health doesn't deteriorate Ed, but if your Mum is happy and settled and getting great care then it makes sense to leave her in Georgia. I hope you have a good weekend with her.

Thanks Lyn.
Mom is NOT happy. But only because she hasn't come to terms with her limits yet.

Famous last words... before an unforeseen major purchase

I did bring my truck this time...

 

[ZEROPILOT]

Sounds like somebody was incompetent rather than malicious there. But, phew, so good that you checked! I’d give an average review—if any.

The place is otherwise kind of nice. The nicest I've ever seen in this particular area.
I gave the house keeper a big tip. The room is also very neat and clean.

Would a new bike fit in?

 

[ZEROPILOT]

Would a new bike fit in?

Sure.
Or I could also buy a new trailer.
I really like the new KAWASAKI H2R.
But it costs a lot and is not street legal.
It's also small.
My current ZX14R fits me just fine.
And the "golden spark candy lime green" is no longer available.

Good evening all. Not so many postcards today because my phone ran out of battery.

We have explored the city on foot a lot! Some views over the harbour



We went to the cathedral and an orchestra was rehearsing for a concert this evening, so we bought tickets and heard Mozart’s Requiem (a choral work) properly. It was excellent




And after the concert we wandered in the gardens round the King’s palace... this feels weird to Brits. You can’t get near Buckingham Palace easily, but many of the other European palaces (Denmark, Netherlands and Norway for certain) you can walk right up to them.

Your Mom is beautiful. And it looks like a lovely place.

Oh dear.

Frosted flakes used to be my go to evening snack, but they changed something about it now the flakes are hard - not too crisp, really, just unpleasantly hard.

Glad I started a trend -maybe I could have commission from Kellogs?
I love a bowl in the evening with cold milk - mmmmmmm

You look like your Mum Ed.

 

[Lyn W]

Thanks Lyn.

Adapting must be very hard for her, but at least you know she is well cared for and safe.

Great pictures again Linda.
The palace looks a bit like Buckingham Palace doesn't it?
