Then all is not lost!
And plays the guitar, well enough for his friends to want him to entertain at their party, if he resolves the trash issue ...
You are definitely one of my favorite people!
I gather that it isn’t within the realm of possibility that he put the cans there first and the car blocked access afterward....
Nope, the car was there first. He could have moved the truck from the driveway, put the car in the garage, and moved the truck back. He could have moved the car across the street. He could have put the trash cans where I told him to, by the Carters’.
But he didn’t.
And you’re one of my favorite people, too. I love all your plants-and-animals anecdotes.
I don’t have “favorite people”.
I have people for that.
There’s something to be “favorite” about just about everyone, at least around here.
Hi, Bob. Thank you for being you and not someone else that I can’t stand!
I'm glad to see that my penchant for torturing secondary meanings out of a phrase is rubbing off on you.
I am mildly curious though, about the other people you can't stand. Are they as haughty and full of disdain as I am? That would certainly make your position understandable.
Are you kidding? Haughty and full of disdain are fully within my tolerance level. I live with Tom, after all.
People I can’t stand are ... you know, THOSE people.
*SIGHHHHH*
I am finally home! YAY, ME!
If I never go to another funeral again, it will be far too soon.
The one son no one expected to show up did, and he broke down. The one son we expected is too busy flying below the RADAR to bother.
The miles I traveled in three days, by car were astounding. I believe it was close to 600 +/- 40 miles.
All couches feel the same.
The altitude made me stupid (close to 5000’) and the late nights, answering questions about people and family histories made my throat sore.
And Guess What? The plane I was supposed to take from SLC today originated in Orlando, but had to stop in Memphis for an emergency illness. It got to SLC and was delayed three hours (at last count) with mechanical problems. What is it about Memphis that puts a hex on the planes I need to take?
We were told if we hurried, we could catch another flight on another concourse, and I had to power-walk the distance — maybe a third of a mile, and ended up with asthma and a slight spasm of angina.
But I’m home. Yay.
The Stig is not talking to me.
My license plates came while I was gone.
I’m beat up but too wired to go to bed. It will take me two weeks to recover from this.
The good news is, I have a new aide coming on Thursday. I hope I have relaxed well enough to tell her what needs to be done.
Any questions?
*tagline*
You’re alive, Stig’s alive, don’t ever try to do anything with Memphis again as long as you live ;-).
Hugs and kisses, sleeeeeeeeeeepppzzzzzzz!
Am I too late for a drink?
Who is serving?
I have Gallo White Zinfandel in the big bottle. It’s in the freezer, help yourself. Shove Tom out of the way, he’s too young to drink.
How is Canada?
Really cold white? Thanks! Yum. Tom doesn’t have a chance.
Canada is almost as screwed up as the rest of the world, but I am grateful for Harper.
‘They’ say Justin Trudeau, newly elected leader of the Liberal Party could win the next election, which doesn’t surprise me, but makes me sick none the less.
I have nothing against a 41 year old high school drama teacher with a trust fund provided by his father, the late Prime Minister Pierre Elliot Trudeau, but having great hair, and a sexy last name doesn’t qualify him for the job.
What she said. :)
I promise I will NEVER have anything to do with Memphis ever again. *shudder*
The body needs to relax a little more before the Evil Sleepz can overtake it. Trying to fill in the gaps on three or seven lives that impacted the “kids” was no easy task, and now, they want my personal history. If I ever get it written....
I thought I told you about Memphis. Memphis doesn’t put a hex on anything; Memphis IS a hex. We’ve been trying to get them to secede from TN, but they respond by trying to appropriate all the schools in the county under the urban Memphis school system. We need Darks to inflict one of his rogue appliances on the school board at their next meeting.
I some some really cheap Arbor Mist White Zinfandel (in a bottle) that I HAD to pick up before I settled in for the night.
You are most welcome to share!
When I get the photos uploaded, I will be a happy camper...one I will print out and keep, and that is the one with nine of the ten sibs that this woman brought to adulthood.
I am so proud of all of them!
