November 2018 all topic thread

Hello all,

Welcome to the second to last month of 2018. I would ask if you all have your Christmas shopping done yet, but I already know the answer.

I usually do all my shopping online. However, since I just went over to the dark side and bought a Toyota, it looks like I will be searching for the winning lotto numbers now. LOL

Happy November 3rd Nor Cal. Three more days and the mail spamming will be over until another election year. If I had a fireplace I could put all those flyers to good use.

I am happy that I voted 3 weeks ago. It makes all the fake news of the last week or two completely irrelevant.

Yeah, I voted absentee so there is no way to change my vote now. Too bad they don't know that.

Argh!!!! Went to do our monthly grocery shopping today and my right arm is screaming at me! They have my appointment for the mri with contrast scheduled for Wednesday and who knows when the surgery will be..

Can’t fix the truck, do chores or much else right now because of this torn tendon. The biggest part is because of the lack of strength and pain.

At least, work is going well with training new engineers.

Today was better, sorta. Set up the smoker and cooked up a 3lb pork loin.

what a mellow way to spend an afternoon, although pain relievers do play games with a person.

I couldn't tell if it was tweed or tie-dye.

Then the song "Go Ask Alice" came on the radio.
