Surprise!!! There is nothing new.


Trying to blend in the grey with a toner. Hmmm.

Not so sure this home hair care method is going to be a big success. Nope, does not make me happy.

We have a new weekend routine, coffee in bed. I bought us a great tray, Big Daddy makes the coffee and hauls it upstairs on the snazzy tray, we turn on the crap news programs--make no mistake, they are all crap--and the cat joins in. So this morning mom calls me at 8 AM. I am still waking up and no coffee. Yes, in the past I used to get up at 4 to 4:30, today is new times. Her dog is itching and she can't sleep, her sister-in-law of the dead brother is losing her mind and she has not had her coffee. She has been up since 4. WTF, why did she not make coffee. She has one of those Keurig things, it is not hard.

We all agree that we do not quite believe the news or anyone working for the news, reporting the news or appearing on the news. Something about all this is just sketchy. Contrary to the NYT I do not know anyone who has died from Covid-19. I do not know anyone who is sick. I do not know anyone who knows anyone who is either of the above. What's up with that? And that includes people in 8 states and 5 countries. I don't get it. There is definitely some reason that some die and some do not and they gotta find out what that little factor is. Why are they dropping dead like crazy in NYC and Prince Charles is virtually unscathed, and the Prince is in the bad zone.

Is this some Chinese cluster or what.

And why is anyone surprised by 3M being dickwads, they have always been dickwads. Back in the day they were they worst to work with. Extra big egos and asshats to wear them.

We went to The Hill last night for takeout, they are still having 2 for one. We got a lovely bottle of Girard Chardonney for 25.00, their special burgers and fries with tomato soup for 38 bucks. Included tip. BYW this is a very nice white table cloth restaurant and BD told them to add the tip to the tab as it is 1 easier 2 cleaner 3 stops the non tipping assholes from skating. This week the tip was added. 

I must add we are very blessed. Plus the above mentioned this has not touched us, BD is working from home and receiving full pay and benes, son is the same and mom is good. Brother that lives in mom's house is at least rent free and his kids are all okay. Same for rest of the family. We are blessed.

Oh My God

This years photo of the European tri-color beech tree. I need a guy to come and assess the limbs for trimming.

Well, my dermatologist changed professions and I was forced back to the crazy guy. He came in with his arm all wrapped up and a semi cast thing and I asked, "what happened". Bad move. His response started with a chain saw and when I waved him off ended with a 30 foot ladder. I knew this appointment would be bad.

He said:

There was nothing really wrong with my nose and gave me 3 shots into the red areas of the right nostril. I cannot describe the pain of the last shot. Prescription for 2 items and enough samples until next year on the topical.

He does not think I had shingles, just some weird Herpes thing on my arm and shingles vaccines are a luxury and I am not old enough. And there is a better one coming out in the next 5 years.

You need to assess your life after mistakes and get rid of the risks. He is selling his 30 foot ladder. And his motorcycle.

Then I found these great clothes in the New York Times, went to their web site and got really excited until I found out they only make small sizes. Really? Only small people need nice, washable, reasonable prices on clothes? WTF.

Then Sammy Dog went off the charts and peed, yes peed on Zoey Cat's paper bag. What an asshat. When the cat gets that much joy from a paper bag, she slept in it for gosh sakes, you pee on it. Sammy Dog is in the literal dog house and Zoey has a new paper bag which we now put up during the day.
