The Hermit Club

Foots- glad you were able to plant some things in memory of your dad and nephew. Sorry you lost them both, but as you say, no longer suffering. So many who went to Vietnam were forever changed by the exposure to Agent Orange. Peace sister.

Mags!!!! i love you.

Jazzy, looks gorgeous. I cleaned a condo today and think it is the end of my cleaning woman career. Too old, too damaged, too delicate. It is okay though. Anyways, it was on the beach and so beautiful. Makes me wanna go on vaca!!!!

jazzy, no, they have mostly 3/3 units and larger....the 2/2 today was too much, and it was not even dirty, ya know? I am sore and wiped out. I am terrified of LE.

It is ok though, no worries. i have a new appreciation for office work now. And a job interview this week. So....whatevah. At least it ain't family law. Maybe I can do it for awhile, till they piss me off or I get bored....it will be easy compared to cleaning. Maids are amazing and strong. I am neither right now.

yupper, cleanin aint for me.

I am gonna try to negotiate less hours for this new position, less than 37. 30 is ideal. And on an independent contractor basis for a year at least. I know the guy, he is ok. I will have to tell him the many errors of his ways constantly as he is a bit odd. My only concern is that I will Tell him to fuck off, right to his face which will of course result in my job loss. Bipster has ZERO filter now, and only had a partial one before BC. But I just do not care, so it does not matter! I take zero shit from these egocentric boneheads. So....it is gonna be fun. I plan to aslk for the max rate!

And Jazzy, the first thing I shall do is get a cleaner for our home

The kitteh says, for evil!!!

Foots- always good to reflect on the day with gratitude. Many things to be grateful for. I hope you are doing well on this Thursday evening?

I am going to bed, but will have coffee updates in the am! Bring on the java!

Bloom du jour of the yellow prickly pear. This one is dedicated to my friend Footprints who loves her garden too.

Thank You everyone I have a patio garden and am eating

 peas and other goodies, Its been hot and things are growing fast.

Bless You blondiex46. My prayer are with You

It so nice to see wonderful people like You. May You find comforting

peacefulness around You.

Jazzy I love those flowers, Thank You.

Good morning friends. Wishing everybody a good weekend and a nice long warm sunny day where ever you are.

I saw some wild horses on my drive home last Monday from Santa Fe. There are still herds of them here in the wild west. I saw this photo today which may be from NM (but definitely somewhere here out west) and thought it was beautiful. Have a feeling Onco is going to want to paint this one!

It is warm and sunny here today. I took my friend who just finished chemo to Costco for a food run. She is still not feeling well from the last chemo, has anemia but trying to avoid another transfusion. She seemed good today and we took a ride in my convertible and talked about jazz and then went to brunch after. It was a good day.

I bought a mixed pot of flowers that I have in a container on the patio and have noticed it looking sort of "ratty" and see why now. The birds have been eating it. The finches hop up into it and are biting pieces of the leaves and flowers off. I guess they taste good but oiy! I have seen this happen before where I have planted annuals and the flowers on top are neatly "snipped off" by a beak of some kind.

No truer words!!!

My problem is with a year-round flock of rats with wings that gobble up bird food from dawn to dusk.

Hawks need to get busy.

The flock of pigeons nest under the town bridge and get thinned out by hawks!

I love it Teka, Faith and I are hot and my machines don't help.

God bless You all.

Root beer floats!

Yum I will take one Jazzy!
