WillyBob Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 because I watch TV.. saw an ad for an acupuncture clinic they were promising an "alternative to pain relief".... thinking like a lawyer, what is "an alternative to pain relief"? None? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just kidding, but I know it hurts, whoever did it did a really good job. Very nice and really good shading makes it really nice. I have to admit I like the Koi but this has it beat. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WillyBob Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 Another day of near record heat. That doesn't take a big jump. Average temp is 100`. Record is ~110`. w/o A/C or swamp box... the temp is 15 - 20` cooler indoors. You will hear us talk strange stuff, though how often have you heard, "Honey, I used up all of the cold water"? Tap water gets to tepid after a few minutes in the shower. Cool showers don't last long. Knackered my back vacuuming yesterday. Moving a little slower than usual. Meds will make sure of that. lol @dtel You "work out of the home? Me, too. If you can call housework "working out of the house". I am still trying to realize retirement. BorderPatrol sound busy this AM. I hear a chopper working across the valley. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnJ Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 We did not even make it to 70 here yesterday because of all the rain, still cool right now. Darn humidity still feels like 90% out there though. We'll be using the ac again soon, back to normal by the weekend. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillyBob Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 @oldtimer will appreciate this Made loko moko for the wife last night. New to her... I thought I made it before. Nothin' fancy. A couple scoops of rice. A hamburger patty topped with a fried egg or two, then smothered in brown gravy. Ketchup/catsup and tobasco are the usual condiments to it. Went to the house to close it up. The BP Blackhawk had a bunch pinned down in the draw behind the house. Just another day. my day will be done before it gets started. Emptying and refilling the kiddie [yeah.. kiddie] pool sounds like a reasonable goal for the day. I would be chasing wilting plants with the hose. Got lazy and set drip lines. On a timer... but I find myself overriding it. Need to make a seasonal change to the program. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete H Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 Summer weather seems to have been postponed in NE Ohio. I believe the high is 66 today with more rain, but after a couple of stunning days, it's fine, but the pool isn't coming up to anything near swimming temperature. I refuse to put a gas heater on it, but may be looking for a passive solar solution. First year for my granddaughter to really enjoy the pool, so I'm going to do something. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tabasco--acceptable, Shoyu--standard. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am still trying to realize retirement. Yes, I work from home, I make things people order through the wife, wood signs and glass etchings mostly. It's something to do besides whatever it takes around here, which is alot sometimes. Just finished 14 small signs 6" x 17.5" people wanted for fathers day, plus some glasses with different things etched on them, some get picked up some get shipped. Except for making the signs and painting them and the actual etching the rest is all done inside listening to music, the stuff inside takes about 80% of the time. Half on the computer designing things and laying them out to be cut, and half on the kitchen table weeding designs and applying them to whatever is going to be painted or etched. Supposedly retired, but can be very busy at times, sometimes nothing. But I do like it all, it's fun, well except when you're doing many of the same things over and over, then it's work. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WillyBob Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 uh huh elevation s everything we're at 3700 feet . ... up out of the cactus @babadono it only 500 miles to SanDiego from here. got a little thrill. Stung by a bee.... I'm allergic to them. Incidental contact. Not malicious. It landed on my back and I grabbed/swatted. Didn't need the epipen. Reaction can be from none to hives everywhere. yes, I used to be an apiculturist. Beekeepers tend to develop allergy to stings. 1/10 are. 1/100 in general population.
