D D Lunch with Barb, my yesterday, water heater

  Friday 4/23  a.m. Burchie left and came back 3 xs  each time saying DONE!   3rd time must have been the charm because they left together in his truck.
Don't even feel comfortable going for a coffee refill when the arguing is down that end of the house near the coffee pot.    sigh!  Heard from her in between his going and coming back that to hurt her he is going to blackball her friend (alcoholic) at the fire station he works at because he lied to him as to not seeing her last night. Position is for a night dispatcher and Tom is in the top 8 of the 30 that applied for the position.
      After they left the Polish in me began making stuffed cabbage for supper and  the cook-out tomorrow.
Hubby wanted oatmeal..put another pot on the stove... As he is sitting there at the table facing the front window, he asks me if Randy is here. In the kitchen the only window faces the neighbors back yard. Off I trot to check out front and see his red truck thru the window. After trips here there and everywhere Randy finally found and is replacing the brackets that hold the railings of the wheelchair ramp up. Ones put on originally were not a good quality and broke off.

    4/24  Had a wonderful lunch and visit with my friend Barb.... God Bless her...she's a listener. Barb if you are reading this, thanks for the 2 hours spent together every so often. Better than any couch therapy. I shit you not!
After that wonderful lunch , moi is ashamed to say that she put on a small pan of potatoes....ate whipped potatoes and 2 stuffed cabbages for supper at 6:30...YUM!  If hubby isn't up to going to the cookout today, I'll  give him some before I leave. Have them in a crock pot warming up & the aroma is wafting in the air...mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Did a little shopping inn WalMart. Some on sale items with the sale price on the tag were not ringing up as being on sale. After watching the clerk get rejections on these items , moi said " forget it". My bag was lighter , wallet was heavier.
The two lovers came in close to 4 which is when she had to get ready for work. Working all day prepping food today and a function tomorrow. Work 3 days in a row. Yes!!   Less time for socializing.
Some mention was made about her black work pants getting tight. The newest pair fit and other 2 or 3 are snug.    MOI: Remember me telling you that if a person drinks 2 tonics/soda's a day that equals 72 cups of sugar a year???  The rum is loaded with sugar too.
The remark she made to moi..         ..ready...........................".Guess I'll have to find another drink I like !"
I shit you not!
   Always something.... Randy noticed the pressure escape valve on the water heater is all rusted out & is leaking like a sieve. Water everywhere under it. Took the piece off after I found him the plumbing tools to match up at the local hardware store. My shower is on hold now.. that's what I get for procrastinating. Push comes to shove moi will use those hospital large soap fill wet cloths sent home with hubby on his discharge and run cold water over my hair. Looking like a wild woman presently, no exaggeration.  I shit you not!
Just asked hubby if he was going with me to the cook out.. Legs are bothering him too bad. Without a question his legs are bad. Has hardly any muscle left in one of them... One is hper sensitive & one he feels no sensation below the knee. Always in  pain, just different levels.
   Moi proposes a question to you readers.  Those hand dryers in public restrooms.... moi thinks they should be lowered. The reason why???  Was at a chiropractic seminar some years back , co-workers and moi were cracking up over something pretty silly and I pissed my pants laughing. I shit you not!. Headed for the nearest restroom in that hotel.  Do you have any idea how hard it is to get your ass up high enough to dry your pants????  Knew I couldn't ... but also couldn't just go to our room & change without first trying to make less wet and making fun of myself. Wonder what strangers coming in thought seeing me with my ass in the air... The 2 co-workers still working there at the chiropractic office still have a good laugh when they remember that scene.  lmfao still too!
Or the time we were at another seminar and moi......... and another time.........for another time.
$37. and some odd cents for that water heater piece... This is a hot water on demand water heater. Small bread box type. Only $13 and some odd cents for a pressure valve for one for those tall upright water heaters. Water heater is repaired ..no more hearing a high pitched whine .no more procrastinating. ..oops, lost water pressure....Sombay called..they are on their way to get me. Wet naps here I come.
That's All Folks!
