Funny, Venus, I used to watch tennis with my dad. We'd go to the old Virginia Slims tournaments in Chicago sometimes. Chrissie Everett was always one of my idols growing up. I've had my eye on Wimbledon off and on. Some years I really get into it. When you're in that mode it's fun to watch all the Grand Slams.
Love and peace to all. I have to make another library run for my mom later. The A/C guy is supposed to come today. Yay! Thankfully, the universe has looked kindly on us and it hasn't been too terribly hot, off and on. I sure hope he can fix it at a reasonable price. I'm hoping it just needs freeon, or whatever that stuff is called.
Have a great weekend. Love and peace to you all. 💖💟☮💞💫

Well, got several loads of laundry done, mowed my MIL's lawn which takes about an hour, did some grocery shopping for our upcoming trip, went and helped my Mom with a few things..Ahh the to do lists.
Sam, you are welcome. They are quite fun
Leshar, I have had double vision for many years..Not from drinking. I often have to keep one eye closed.

Ugh, indeed!! Don't miss that one bit.

I told my mom I would cut her hair today. I really don't like doing it. After college, I went to cosmetology school thinking I could combine the two, but it didn't work out. I still cut a very few people's hair, mostly my family, so I'm kind of out of practice. She has been complaining vociferously about her hair so I'd better just gut up and do it this morning after she gets up. Trying to fit everything in before A/C man gets here. I'm a little anxious about it. I'm hoping we don't need a new one. They are so very expensive. Thankfully I'm grateful we have what we need to get by. Very grateful indeed.

Least I am sorry about your foot. Maybe you could prop yourself up in your bed or a chair and try to sleep that way?
Aly I hope the hair cutting goes okay.
I am watching tennis and multitasking by responding to emails for my husband's business, my mom's estate and our taxes. Grateful I have Fridays off to attend to all my other jobs. I need to go get some exercise though it is terribly hot again here today. Looking forward to my granddaughter coming over for a sleepover tonight. Hope everyone has a good weekend!

Wow CB, that is a lot to juggle.

Evening 'kenders!

Good luck today Aly.

I have been to the Admiralty today - I have a vague idea that might have been the place James Bond was notionally attached to (possibly in the books rather than the movies but it's a VERY long time since I read a JB novel) I don't drink, gamble, dislike guns, don't own a tuxedo, don't drive an Aston Martin and am not successful with women but apart from that I could be him.

Actually I was in the testing area (in respect of some coatings - all very tedious) That's probably more Q's area I guess. Anyway, here's some Ruritanian hooey:

Alpine, I'm sorry about your double vision. Isn't there any measure to correct it?

Hi least, I have the same problem due to Rheumatoid Arthritis. I have terrible foot at night when I am in bed. It doesn't start until I am in bed and it is enough to wake me up and to make it difficult to fall asleep. Once I am up for the day it goes away. I hope you can find a resolution for your problem.

Alpine

Leshar, I have prisms in my glasses but it really does not help much.

least

Yeah my feet feel numb and painful all the time but it's worse at night, sleeping. The pain wakes me up it's so intense. Doctor had me on gabapentin, which just made my legs swell badly, tried Lyrica but didn't help either. The pain in my feet makes me forget about the pain in my back.

Here for the weekend! Venus, I used to watch tennis with my dad, and played obsessively for most of my teen/young adult years.

Alpine

I have heard that Least from others that I know that have that. It is pretty stinky.

Least have you tried/considered acupuncture? It seems to remedy lots of issues with pain, etc.

least

Now that I'm in a big city I'll give acupuncture a go. Im willing to try anything

I hope it helps, Least

I’m in for a weekenders weekend....2 year soberversary tomorrow and been struck down with COVID (2nd time this year).. got a bit jittery with the AV on 1 year sober so thought I would hang round here and head any silly ideas off early. To be honest though I have absolutely zero designs on ever drinking again...but you know forewarned is forearmed

hope you are all having a great weekend

I will try my best. If I think I will fail, I will reach out to my support system before I go to the dark side
