Housemate asked for a ride to a specific store at 4:30. OK, I said. The one just down the road, right? Oh, no. The one by the Walmart. I don't remember there being one by the Walmart. Oh, not this Walmart, the one in the next town. Then I will have to wait for him. What am I, Uber? Notice how he locks me in before providing any details.

Not much going on today for me. The house is dry so I'm going to get the humidifier going. I got a new video game on sale to try and I've started on a new streaming program. I'm on the last two days of my vacation. I wish Monday would never get here. LOL

I'm in a bit of a panic now... I ordered some large wardrobe units for the spare room, which currently holds other furniture and lots of boxes with stuff for sale on auction sites. i was told the delivery would be around the 2nd of december, so I thought I had time to try and get the room cleared in readiness for the delivery, .... but I just had a text from the company saying they;ll be delivering in the next 2 days...

do you have someone who can help you with that?

Nope that's the whole point... my 40's something 6 foot neighbour would have helped if I'd asked but he's put his back out....

Any way to get some movers to come out and move the stuff for you since it's a dire situation?

No...not a chance.... I could ask my friend to come but its a big ask because it's a lot of heavy stuff to move out, ... I'm thinking I might give my gardener a call.. he;s a strong 20 something, he might be able to help

@hawkdon Sorry about the egg situation. And...I have a picture in my mind's eye of your new chair being spring-loaded and not only raising you upright but propelling you into a wall. Boing! LOL

My wife is coming home from her pilgrimage to Italy and seeing Pope Leo. Halfway through her 12 hour flight (now 9 AM PST) she
is leaving Greenland at this moment. At home I prepared not only the usual Roses, but also her favorite Baklava and Persimmons



When my blood oxygen was about to fall below the normal range, I had a sleep study on October 10 that showed low
blood oxygen during sleep apnea. So, now I am using a continuous positive airway pressure gadget (CPAP) at night to
avoid health problems. Not exactly enjoyable, but I am getting used to it.



Just a few weeks ago, I loved my Boxer pack. But Ross (second from the left) had a mouth tumor that had been made worse with a
surgery, and he had to be euthanized last month. Otto on the far right has terminal cancer and will have to be euthanized now.
Yes, I love them all dearly, but being just shy of 90 y/o, two pups keep me sufficiently busy, especially my lively 14 m/o puppy Rex.
Anyway, sleeping with four dogs in my small bedroom was a little bit too cramped. I treat/treated them as if they were my children.

Yesterday and today - having a Christmas sale. Yesterday and today - waiting for people to show up. Considering the places I advertised and on Marketplace I had over 400 views of my ad, it's very disappointing. I had a few messages from people saying they would definitely come, but ended up being no-shows.

@debodun
You mean NO ONE showed up?

Played Bingo. At my table there were two people who really weren’t there. Can’t get comfortable here. It is very dangerous.

For some unknown reason (it’s not Thanksgiving in Canada) lineups at the local store were so busy, I left the one item I was going to buy on a shelf. They had a lot of tills closed. I’ll try and go back this afternoon. It was a semi-successful trip, because I ran into a friend and we huddled in a quiet corner and got caught up on his wife’s health. She’s not being co-operative about her meds and he is looking burned out.
