Bob's still around? Swal

Yeah, he swooped in, ripped off his shirt and showed them bots who was boss! And then as mysteriously as he arrived, he left again.

Eye doc appt went well. Got on the train a little after 8, got a seat, transferred once for a short jaunt to the hospital. Got there a little after 9 and was out by 12. Doc was very reassuring and answered all of my concerns and questions. My issues are normal and my visual accuity is slowly coming in. When they did the test, I could see which way the C was (up, down, sideways) for most of it, but got two wrong. When they put the lenses in, that cleared it up immensely. Big difference from 2 weeks ago when even the lense didn't help.

So, I can get back to normal routing in 1 week, which will make it 4 weeks since the surgery. Change the eye drop prescription and only apply 3 times per day vice the 9 that I was on, which I think I can remember. He said I could probably drive, but I'm going to hold off on that until the right peripheral issue lessens a bit more. So the poor wife will have to ferry me around a bit more.

While we were getting ready to pay for the visit, the earthquake alarm went off 3 times. My phone didn't start screeching and my wife told me that the Yokosuka emergency system got hacked and is now off-line. Then an update from the TV that was on said that the earthquake alarm was in error, so probably hacking again. Glad that it was because we still needed to jump on the train.

And when we got home, my long lost status FEDEX package was waiting. See what I said? B1tch and it shall come.

Have a great day!

Well, that's because they're all wrong!

If he wasn't, the forum wouldn't be here.

Good morning. It’s 73 and clear, heading to 90.

I’ve lived in my new place for a little over a year, and am still discovering or realizing things about the place and the person i bought it from.
One of the things I’ve come to realize is, she seems to be an alcoholic. I present to you, exhibit A:

In a tiny home where every square foot needs to have a place for everything, and everything in that place, I’ve cleaned out two entire shelves in my kitchen that contained nothing but wine and champaign glasses, as well as a set of shot glasses. I’ve hung onto them for this long because there’s nothing wrong with them, and I am loath to throw anything away that isn’t broken or worn out. I do have a rule about this kind of stuff, and generally, if I don’t touch it in a year, away it goes.
I think I’ll save a shot glass, because you never know, and toss the rest.

No need to save a shot glass, just drink straight from the bottle!

Good morning gang!

Looks like an overcast day starting at 61° and getting to 81° before the rains come.

Thanks for all the anniversary congrats yesterday. Dinner was a little Italian place about 5 miles from the house. Their propane ran out right before we ordered due to a faulty gage not warning the kitchen or the propane company. She elected to go ahead and order cold food, so we both had italian cold cut subs and potato chips.
