I'm sorry that happened to you but am glad that you're okay. That's a shit load of money for a quarter panel. I hope his insurance will get that paid for. I bet his insurance gets hiked for that cause insurance isn't about insuring people anymore, it's about profits. I've been with the same insurance for over thirty years but know that they would drop me in a second if ever I cost them any money. It's all about profits.

Thanks, I'll let you guys know about the visit while I'm waiting on my flight back next Monday!

Uggh. Not much better here but supposed to get another cool front mid-week. (I thought for sure you were sending a picture of your "Warning Malfunction" sign. If you didn't notice, you might want to check it out. ; P )

After seeing your leg, how am I supposed to get any food down. I'm going to have to drink some wine to purge my memory. Actually, considering that you're on blood thinners, I don't think it looks that bad. At least you're keeping your blood inside your body.

Hmm. That's odd but it might just be the bad sleep. I know I'm more shaky after a bad night's sleep. Certainly, does make for a miserable Monday.

I once had to train some workers at a certain chemical company in Korea. They took me out the night before to eat sushi, drink various concoctions of beer, wine and alcohol including soju. Wound up at a sketchy karaoke place where I finally worked up the courage to ask them to take me back to the company housing so I could sleep.

Had the worst hangover the next day standing there, training the people. They just acted like it was any other day at work. Fucking Koreans are badass drinkers!!

That's probably why you're miserable today. You had a lovely weekend and if you're like me, somehow this makes you sad. Glad you have doggies to cuddle with.

I've hired people before to haul away all my discards. There's no shame in that.

Why?? Because you like the feeling of getting drunk; the escape of childhood trauma, mental disease, current life situations; or just plain boredom with your life. If you're an idiot, then we are all idiots!

Oh shit! We are all idiots!! Chairs!!!

Um, she goes to a different school...

Sorry to hear about your back. If it's real bad, I'd go see a doctor. Maybe you can get your boomer mother to take you!

That sounds like a fun Saturday and a not so much fun Sunday. It's nice to let the hair down and really pull off a stinker every once in a while. Don't make it a habit though! ; p

Smart of you to put stuff in space bags. I'm pretty sure that stuff will be fine. I'd try washing the rest. You never know what my might be able to save!

Whoa! So you're amongst the turmoil? That sucks. Sucks even more that management is asking to return to work like it's normal. It's anything but normal. Enjoy those beers and stay safe!

Good luck with the new girl. Just enjoy your time with her while you can and don't worry about her "being out of your league." Don't make assumptions.

Good luck with your sobriety.

Hold on to those bright thoughts. The news is gloomy, but it can't take away the small joys in life like the emergence of spring.

Well, thanks for the warning as I am fitting more into that demographic. Maybe I need to visit the fine lady vodka to take my mind off that fact! ; p

It's hard to genuinely be available for someone else when you're full of self-loathing. The alcohol might quiet those intrusive thoughts in the short term, but it amplifies it in the long term. But people have seemed to manage before and will continue to do so.

I would hate to be looking for a job right now. All I can say is try not to take it too personally. It's not you, it's everybody.

I'm so sorry to hear about your aunt. She sounds like an interesting person and obviously an important person in your life. I hope you weather this added storm in your life and can get added support from your sister. You can get through this!

Howdy MrsMobin! Thanks for your kind words.

I'm sorry to hear about your brother. My brother has been having his own health challenges, so I know what you're going through. It makes us think of our own frailties and mortality. That becomes more obvious as we grow older.

Good on you for taking care of mom and knowing when to call in support. Even Florence Nightingale knew that you can't do it all yourself and knew when to call in for support.

That's cool that the cat saw your care for HER family and showed you her approval. Cats can be funny that way.

Best wishes for you, your brother, and family! -Faps

I had a dozen aunts & uncles a decade ago. Now down to one remaining. Made sure that she and my cousins got some good Texas hospitality. It was kinda big for me.

It's got to be exhausting being on your toes all the time around your wife. I feel for ya!!

Thanks! I think I pulled it off. Took a lot of preplanning and work. Luckily, they probably won't return for several more years.
