Snowbound in Colorado. Nothing to do but cook breakfast, clean kitchen, go to store, see buck, Bacardi Black rum and tonic, roast veggies; olive oil, maple syrup, Siracha, salt, pepper, herbs. Cookies and ice cream, weed and movie. Yeah, that'll do it. 🤙 Oh yeah I got out and cleaned my elder lady friend's porch off and took her some goodies because she's been sick the last few days. I just took my cape off and hung it in the closet. 😉🤣
Had more cornbread than pan, so did a small skillet, put it on top of the other pan because of small toaster oven, it needed a bit of a toasting on the bottom on the stove, and 'spoiled' the top of the wedges, but it all tastes delicous. No Buttermilk, so vanilla yogurt and milk for the mix. Martha White comes through again!
Today, Jane Fonda came to boost one of our local candidates for County Commissioner - which has been six Republicans for the last 60 years. Fonda's PAC picks progressive / environmental candidates down ballot to back.
The last two contestants for CC3 each increased our vote percentage but never enough to win. Perhaps this is the year. #politics
I gave AI this photo of my place, and asked for a rooster and a cat in front of it.
It's so gorgeous. I used to love my house. Now I want the new one. 🤣
Happy 97th birthday to Celinda, my friends mother, and 73rd birthday my friend Bob.
That's his happy face. 😆
Okay! Got stringers cut and one set & bolted to the wall the other day, then yesterday cut off & dropped the spiral stairs onto the neighbor's laundry/shed without catastrophe. Used a winch and a couple guide ropes. Ladder for temporary access, I'm going to go get some white stain and hot everything before final assembly. So off the HomeDemon I go!
Pounded some water, and now having my second beer. Medalla Light (the island beer, there is no regular) comes in 10 oz latas, and is 4.2% perfect for all afternoon sipping.
Hanging out in my favorite shoreside tree with my little green drinking buddy.
Spent the morning helping a friend run her skulling races, after taking her to the hospital last evening because she broke her wrist trying to pull start a motor on a boat. Good day but hot - all of Puerto Rico is under a heat warning everyday for the last month or so. Now I'm sitting in the shade sipping a cold beer.
Totally stolen.
Good meme material.
Thanks for all the good times Mrs Tyler. #CoSoMusic
Good morning all!
Blueberry bagel with peanut butter and blueberries, coffee.
I think I'm off to a good start.
I have a little painting and tightening up to do around the house before I leave for 6 weeks. Future comms will come from Puerto Rico. I have a 6:00 a.m. flight in the morning. It will be good to see old friends there and pick up where I left off with chores. Getting the AC working, and prepping the rooftop cabana for tile. Also keeping a heads up for hurricanes since 'tis the season.
Well, had a good 3day vacay. Hot Springs, and a wedding reception. The title "wife verification event" has something to do with the fact that the (u.s.) groom married the (polski) wife in Poland then left to come back to the states without realizing he did not have the proper "green card" to return with his wife in 2 days from now. The bartender behind the sign was a wonderful woman who took care of us all for tips.
Well got half of it fit, a little tear off in the morning and fit the rest. Ooch, my back!
A Rumargarita, 600 Ibuprofen, small bit of gummy, a puff or two, and a yummy tangerine creamsicle and my back isn't such a bother. 😎
Friday I started tearing off the old (14 yr.) balcony decking. Yesterday I went for a sail on the lake with friends, this morning I hauled up the new 3/4 marine plywood sheets. This afternoon when the shade comes will cut and fit. Then I have EPDM rubber to lay...that's a new process for me. I'm short on working days B4 I leave for PR for 5 weeks, so it likely wait for final EPDM install til October.
Ms. Min, I hear it's your birthday!
Happy birthday to one of the brightest lights in the CoSo 'verse. @Minholkin enjoy the day! 🫶
Whether it's Medicare, or regular insurance, does anyone understand what they are doing on an EOB?
🤷 It's a different math.
