Wow Saou, that must've taken a long time to install. Looks great.
Last day of April! Make it a great one.

Finally got more sleep, less tossing and turning for once. I’ll take it!

Nice work on the beautiful parquet flooring, Sao!

Aly, I live in Phoenix, when I fish it's a 1.5 hour drive NE through the beautiful small town of Payson and 12 more minutes from there to Tonto Creek.

Gotta get brother to PT this morning. Prayers answered, he was accepted for Dial-A-Ride, he'll get a starter packet this week and he can give that a try which might take a little pressure off me for transportation.

Thanks Astro. You have some fun adventures!
We have a complete idiot for a paper person. They deliver or not the paper under the car, in the middle of the street or sometimes we don't get one, like today. My mom doesn't have a lot to do and looks forward to the paper. I called and left a mean message and I told him/her I was sick of it and no wonder we didn't give him tips. If he delivered the paper properly, we'd tip him handsomely. I'd like to get my hands around the creep's neck. Jerk. She pays a fortune for it too.
It's going to be sunny and they say every day is going to get warmer. I did like those coolish days for a while since we get so much heat here. Tomorrow is my mom's birthday. I was thinking of taking her to brunch at a place we like to go to. I have therapy tomorrow, so we can't stay too long. That's the first time she's wanted to go out. If it doesn't work out, we can go another day. Maybe I should ask my sister to go. I haven't talked to her much lately.
Have a great day all. Wish me luck at the dentist. Boy, teeth can get painful. I waited too long to do something about it.
Love and peace to you all.

Thanks for the parquet compliments, it is easily the best feature of my flat

Glad you're sleeping better Purps, I have the same issues.

That's good news about your brother Astro!

How annoying Aly, how much extra effort can it be to bring it to the door or mail box?

Have a good day all!

Late check in today. I stayed up late and woke up late.

That is a beautiful floor Sao. A lot of work but worth it.

Good luck at the dentist Aly. Not my favorite place.

Hope the ride situation works out for your brother Astro. You are a busy guy.

Have a good Tuesday everyone.

As much as I like Halloween, lets have some summer first! lol.
The weather forecast is calling for rain, rain, rain, and more rain for the next 7 days!
Got my quote from the plumber for the repairs. Bit of a shock.

Coffee's and morning SR rituals make for a great start of the day...sober.

I worked the Sleep Token concert last night, and yeah I was their dressing room guard. IYKYK, maybe Sao's familiar with them? Anyway, their anonymity is a HUGE deal so they had a "tunnel" from their buses to the dressing rooms so nobody could see them. Their tour crew was fantastic, very nice group of people from the UK, I wish they were all that friendly and respectful.

Comedy show tonight, graduation ceremony to work tomorrow, then maybe I can catch up on sleep zzzzzzzz........

Funny, I had a dental adventure this week also. Turns out I need a new crown on a tooth and they want to replace a bunch of fillings done in the past five years. Is that the max life of fillings done today? I still has a tooth filled with silver from 1981!

Aly, try thinking positive things about the paper person and see if the deliveries improve. Putting out negative thoughts towards them will certainly continue to lead to missed deliveries on your part. It's worth a shot and doesn't cost you anything.

Have a good day all!

Thank you SG! He didn't deliver today and I found yesterdays papers way under the neighbor's car Great for my knees. But that is a great suggestion I'll start thinking about good things, etc. and maybe it will change. Thanks for the suggestion, you always have good ones!
Next Wednesday I have to go back to the dentist and get and extraction, a crown, and a cleaning, expensive and time consuming but necessary. I'll be glad to get it all over with. Now I have to get glasses. All the big expenses come at once.
Today is mom's birthday. I think she's 87. We might go to brunch today. I feel badly she didn't get her paper today.
I hope you all have a wonderful day and love and peace to you all.

Morning earlies, coffee is on. I was woken around 1am by peals of thunder booming away so i'm tired this morning.

Astro, I confess to knowing very little about Sleep Token other than that they have been called the British Slipknot, it must be interesting to be the dressing room guard, that's quote a responsibilty. Good luck with the comedy show.

Dentists, urgh! We Brits have a reputation for poor dental care which is no surprise if the amount of money they charge is the same as mine.

Wet out this morning.
