USMB Coffee Shop IV

[Big Black Dog]

Guess I shall go take a shower and shave and hit the hay. Have to begin resting up. Sunday is my 22nd wedding anniversary. I want to find myself well-rested and ready for whatever happens to come my way! Wonder if I'm coming up for parole?????

Two words... Good morning. Busy day. Talk with you all later.

BBD, are you all set for your big camping trip? Where are you headed, got enough coffee and PB&J?

Yes!!! Well, almost. Have to buy one more storage container for storing things in the undercarriage storage area of the RV, flush and fill the water tank, stock it up with some food, and then hit the road. Will be leaving very early in the morning of July 5th - the day before my birthday. Taking Mrs. BBD to Shipshewana, IN. We will see a play at a dinner theater called "Half-Stitched" and there are lots of quilting stores for Mrs. BBD to browse in. I shall escort her around the town during the mornings and early afternoon and afterwards I shall retire to a chair in the shade of the RV awning to read several books I have been wanting to read for a while but haven't gotten around to. I plan to relax and Mrs. BBD plans to shop, work on her sewing and stuff. It's really just the warm-up trip in prep for our big trip to the New England area in September.

Have you posted a pic of it yet, or did I miss it?

Would love to see it.

And while I'm in a teaching mood--don't you just hate that??--here's a refresher course on that ducttape and WD-40 discussion a few days ago:

So, I got my new cast. Who bet on forest green? Apparently I'm healing well. Two weeks now until my next appointment.

I did, I did!!!


What do I win??





Oh, and can I sign it??

This is amazing. Out of the blue yesterday I got an email from a distant cousin whom I'd never met.
She was born and raised in Austria, my grandfather's birth country (Graz). In 1952 my dad acted as sponsor and paid the money so she and her family could emigrate to the U.S. I remember being told this story when I was very young, but never imagined I would ever connect with them.

We owe everything to the H family and would not be here if it were not for your family.

Wow.

Wow.

You can tell your cousin that you know someone who has been to Graz often and if she gets a craving for Kürbiskernöl (pumpkin seed oil) from that region, just let me know...

That is a specialty out of the Steiermark (Graz). People there use it on everything from salad dressings to potatos to pumpkin soup, etc.

Becki and Becki’s hubby,
Sheila and son Andrew,
Noomi’s Auntie Marj and Nana and cousin,

Complete healing for Mrs. Ringel and assurance for Ringel
All of us and those we care about who are looking for work,
All who are dealing with colds and flu,
And all others we love and hold in concern.

And the light is on awaiting the return of Bigfoot, Oddball, and Sunshine.

P.S. Sometimes in the editing of the vigil list or when I have switched computers, somebody gets dropped that is supposed to be on it. This will always be inadvertent and if ya'll would call it to my attention, it would be much appreciated.

I think that ideogram translates as "I shall regret this decision when I'm post-menopausal".

This past week has been so stressful that I woke up with a migraine!

So instead of coffee I took 2 Excedrin and drank a Coke. Usually that does the trick but I can still feel it. If it persists I am going to cancel the rest of my meetings and lie down instead.

This is one of those days when the Diem is Carping me instead!

Hope you all have a great Friday.

Smart move to skip the coffee, as it does nothing to help alleviate the stress. Instead try some chamomile tea, it contains an amino acid that relaxes nerves and acts as a mild sedative. Also, when you're at home, try relaxing with some soothing music, and it's also important to get a good night's sleep.

Morning !

If looks could kill.

Good morning, coffee mates! Not quite 60 on a bright bright sunshiny morning with a breeze from the west. We are going to walk workout up at the Guardsman in a bit.

 

[007]

Well it's FRIDAY, and I've put in a long, hard week. I think I might just take today off and go get me some....

And even though, it is too early for breakfast, here, that plate of food DOES look delish. I'm hungry for deep-fried fish. I may go to my fave beach restaurant this weekend for some halibut. Fish and chips. I also like oily cod deep-fried but prefer the flaky white halibut. I won't eat fish and chips, unless it is one of those two. Many restaurants that sell fish and chips, inexpensively, are selling something called whitefish, and it is flavorless, so I would never have that again. Learned the hard way, 12 years ago. All that fat and calories and no flavor. ( the fries were GREAT, though...so not a total loss for flavor )

Well all that sounds wonderful, Jake. Makes me wish it weren't raining and windy as much here today, as I prefer the days of mist and light showers, alternating with days of sun and sea-breezes.
