COLD DARK ROOM

[MaNaAk]

Good morning all,
Another grey, cold day here but at least it's dry.

Nothing very exciting happening today, I'm going to sort out my books and try to part with them.
I love books and have many from my teaching days which are just gathering dust now, so maybe they need a new home. Trouble is I'll start looking through them again and convince myself I still need them. I will try to be ruthless though.
Have a good Tuesday. TTFN

Cold, dull and wet here. I hope Angie's injections went ahead.

I think probably Beyonce did a way better half time. I watched that part. Since the only reason I watch the Superbowl is the commercials I didn't bother to watch this year. So I GUESS I don't have an opinion except I do like rap. It has to have a melody and a dance beat . What does that make me?

There is some rap I like. Whatever that was at super bowl half time. I don't think there is a genre for that.

Saw this on YouTube and had to share it:

Rose has a hysterectomy performed on Friday. Will be one night stay in the hospital.My right lung that is 50% scared. I am afraid pneumonia has settled in. Trying all my remedies in my bag of tricks. Trying to stay out of the hospital.

I don't know I haven't watched except for all the news shows that won't quit playing it up . I wouldn't have they haven't even enticed me enough to actually look up the video but I did for Beyonce. it was lovely and fun.

my cup...okay, how did you come into possession? Luthor?


(there's a certain but very perverse fun in pulling the chain of someone from a different place, who doesn't "get it")

Car fixed! Garage called me at about 5 pm so it's back home now and thankfully only cost about £85 for part, labour and tax - I was expecting to pay at least £200. So that was a relief. Hopefully there won't be any more nasty surprises for a while.,

I hope so for you too. Sometimes with an old car it'll be a bunch of repairs all at once though. Then nothing. Just upkeep as usual. Or not. Maybe you have a vehicle that takes cheap parts and it's worth hanging on to. I think you need a mechanic friend to give you some real advice on what to do.

Hope it goes super easy for your wife Ray.....and you get better too......figured you were "in one of your moods". That's what I call it when I can tell that you aren't feeling well. Hang in there brother.

This will make you feel good.....I did it to Kerry!

I generally don't "prank" folks but yesterday we were driving to Delaware to go grocery shopping at 8am and after we leave our street, we get onto a secondary 50mph country road. Kerry was driving, me in the passenger seat. Out of the blue, I look up and mention "deer", then a half-second later my hand goes to brace myself on the dash and yell, "DEER"!

To say my sweet wife was unimpressed would be to ignore the "Where the F is it" emanating from her mouth as her foot sought to stop the car within a single foots distance.

Of course there was no animal in sight......(and yeah, I checked behind us in the mirror before I did that). I know, it was a bad thing to do.....but why can't I stop laughing?

Soccer-deer...(open in New tab)

Saw this doe napping next to the ball. She was there all afternoon. Apparently she plays?

Reminds me of when I was a passenger years ago and said "oh, zebras"; the girl I was dating wasn't a "Kerry" and almost drove off the highway when she turned to look

Unfortunately Cathie, none of my friends are so practical. I have lots of nephew's and nieces but none of them are mechanically minded apart from the one in California and he would only be able to help if I owned a Tornado or Typhoon jet!

The mechanic at the garage said it's a good little car and worth repairing, but then he'd be losing business if I didn't. I do trust them though.

Hopefully my little Fiesta will battle on a while longer.

Oh Ray, I do hope you'll be able to fight that off soon and at home, but maybe hospital will be the best bet for care.

I also send good wishes to Rose for her op and hope she makes a speedy recovery too. The ops are petty routine these days but she has to be a good patient and not do any lifting etc, Will you have help at home?

Thinking of you both.

Random thought for the day!


I woke this morning having an epiphany. Those who crow "diversity is strength" very obviously never heard the footfalls of 5,000 soldiers in a Roman Legion moving as one. Step, step, step....closer and closer...

Each exactly like the next as they dominated the battlefield.

You have to love a fighting force that uses The Turtle as a defensive manauver!

I woke my wife this morning, snuggling in close, feeling her warm breath on my neck...till I whispered " deer".

She's upstairs, still laughing

Yes we are going to get home healthcare for a couple of weeks. Then they will reevaluate if she needs additional help. My doctor called me in a steroid to the pharmacy. The doctor is not happy with me because I didn't go to the hospital. I told her if it gets worse I will go.

Here is a incident that happened at a small airport in Waterford Michigan. One of the passengers were getting on a private jet. When he got in the airplane, he knew the pilot. The pilot was on the radio with the tower. The passenger said Hi Jack. Instantly after the tower heard that. Communications were shut down and personnel went into their hijack protocol. Of course it was reported in the newspaper. Back in the day when there were newspapers.
@jeff kushner what is my tell that you know when I am under the weather?

Kerry's so much nicer than me or she must love you too much.
