Hi everyone, sorry to have been awol. Started out a couple of weeks ago when I decided to make my defection to Apple complete and trade my Galaxy Note 4 for an iPhone 7+. My first ever iPhone and I have to say I love it, the Note was getting a bit long in the tooth and starting to give me charging problems so it was time, and after the Note 7 debacle and the exploding washing machine thing I'm not really trusting Samsung at the moment. I still have to replace my washer before it explodes, and Samsung isn't being cooperative unless you replace it with another Samsung which simply isn't happening.
Of course that kept me busy for a few days getting it all setup, but because of my two iPads and iMac much of that happened pretty much automatically. I'm actually quite amazed, if you just look at resolution specs you would expect the iPhone screen to be lacking compared to the 4k screen of the Note but that isn't the case at all. Obviously screen quality has to do with a lot more than just the number of pixels, anyway I'm a happy camper.

Having a bit of a flare up of my tummy troubles, probably because of the stress of having to make the quarterly trip to Atlanta yesterday and having to go back to the Dr myself on Friday. Not looking forward to that at all. Whatever this problem is it's one step forward two steps back, rinse repeat. I do not like or trust doctors or any part of the medical profession anymore since they are all under the thumb of big pharma who's goal is to keep you alive but sick enough to remain a customer and keep paying for their poison.

OK I shouldn't have said that but it is what I believe.

now off to try to work on my class lesson, I'm only 3 months behind.

That is awesome! I just picked up some wire, kinda thinking of making a little something for the lady that runs the Compassion Club. She's run the place with her daughter for 7 years and when everyone else was shut down, she was left standing. Maybe bc she actually runs her club by the key word 'passion' instead of 'money', like the other places. She even helps those with no money, just to help them feel better.

What kind of club is it?

I'm hoping not a strip club. Cuz, then there would just be so many things wrong about your post.

Good to see you Saint!

It's got to the point where it should be before everyone's time but they still can't shut the fuck up about it. "Ooh! It's gonna snow! Let's talk about the blizzard of '78 again!" :wait: :blah: :crazy: :finger:

I was in my prime in '78.....
That blizzard defined me.....


Hold it.....'78 is kinda fuzzy.....most of the 70's....and 80's......might have been a spring shower rather than a blizzard.
But I remember being defined.



Or defiled.


Yeah......I'm thinking defiled.

In a good way.....as defililings go.....near as I can remember........

Morning knuckles.

Hope you are all warm.

Not much happened today. I did do some work on my lego block mod, but mostly nothing.

Cooked roast beef. 5 minutes oven on full power. Then oven off, door closed for 2 hours.

I was being defiled in 78' by a bunch of 12yr old girls who were a year ahead of me in the curiosity department.

Depending on which way you head in there, you'll be a stones throw away from Claudia. Maybe talk her in to leaving the house for a bit.

This was a run in and run out. Tight schedule and all that. Otherwise, I would have loved to sip an iced tea with this wonderful woman. Also, I went very close to where Penguiness is and couldn't stop there either. No fun.

And a special welcome home greeting to Glow. It's nice to see your face.

It's snowing again.
And you all know how I feel about that.

Much the same as I do, I am certain. No snow here for a little bit. I know we are not out of the woods yet...March and April can be very, very snowy for us.

Nice to see your face as well!

Mum is going to a transitional facility. Kinda less acute than hospital but still in need of constant care. She'll have more space, and some facilities. Needs her shoulder to heal so she can at least support herself holding tables and stuff.

I know she would probably prefer to come home, but she needs to be strong. Glad to know that she is progressing. How are you holding up with the bachelor life?

Step in the right direction.

Mornin dog! I tried building my velocity mini with the Clapton wire. I'm done with that atty. I've never put a build in it that heats up in less than 4 seconds. Will try again on an atty I know works.

I'm off to the dmv to renew my hazmat endorsement and get finger printed again. It costs $83 dollars for the finger print each time. Do finger prints change? I call bull shit!

Updating the background check? I haven't renewed mine yet and I have a TWIC so it was a little less expensive to get it the first time.

lmao the passionate strippers are the best! of course Diane is in her 60's and doesn't look like she works out much... Maybe Ill get a different kind of special on my birthday if Im lucky lmao its an herbal medicine type of club lol not sure how its diff from the other models used. They have a few names that mean the same thing. she's a saint though! pun intended hehe ;) too many people are in it for the green. (the kind you spend, once again, pun intended) Its good to see people more interested in peoples well being.5

ZAMN YALL IT CRAY CRAY BUSY IN DA HOOD YO! UNCLE SAINT NEEDS HIS CHILL TIME! or umm, I mean, my schedule has been quite full this week of last along with the week prior. Oh how I long for the days of relaxation, sipping tea, eating crumpets and laying naked roadside for the perfect tan.

So much.
Lots of roads weren't really cleared until Thursday or Friday.
But it should warm up a little this week and start melting.
Is it spring in the south yet?
