today, my boy got his tonsils and adnoid removed

Little later in life than usual, but great that it's done, si man.

It's been fashionable to NOT remove this vestigial garbage and to let kids suffer,  man.

he's Many and acting like he's Many on the couch

P-Math transgressions corrected, see and si and  C man.

And, nothing wrong with his acting, depending on the nicely flexible definition of Many, si man.

Hope he's able to do turkey, etc. this week, ingest wee C man man.

 

Edited to add:  Ignore above, no see man -- LPoP and unread, no see man.

Thrilling Monday report, see man:

 

Despite embedding post-midnight and almost delirious fatigue, Mini-B. awoke and readied himself earlyish, miss-Momming wee man man.

 

We remembered to take doc-prohibited HSM at bedtime and actually zzz'd, zzz we man.

Ex-Mrs.-T-B. awoke us with a cheery "I'm home, si man!", good but  man.

 

Ex-Mrs.-T-B. showed up before noon to collect Mini-B., appear ex-she man man.

She accomplished every item on her Ecu agenda, successful ex-she man man.

She said that Mama-ex-Mrs.-T-B. appreciated the bath towels & warshcloths that we sent down, si man.

We distinctly suspect that Family-ex-Mrs.-T-B. wants her to remarry us, suspect distinctly we man man.

 

Ex-Mrs.-T-B. invited us for Thanksgiving lunch, usual invitation man.

Attendees would be us, Mini-B., ex-she man, Cousin Mini-B., and Cousinette Mini-B., quorum man.

Ex-Mrs.-T-B. was tempted to also invite Foxy Amiga* and mom, if no other plans man.

     *albeit not a rubia, no man

"But you might flirt with her and I might want to remarry you, si man," said ex-she man man.

"She wouldn't go out with us anyway, no man," responded we man man.

 

After this, we blew out to Costco Business Center, weather threatening man.

We got Many (2+2+2+1) items, all but one planned man.

On way back, we Aldi'd for another shepherd's pie, keep freezer inventory up man.

We then visited Mama T-B. and got thoroughly yelled at for the various usual, sigh man.

 

Ministered to expectant miu, minister we man.

Din-din was MTG, ingest we man.

We then siesta'd, excellent zzz we man.

 

Ex-Mrs.-T-B. texted us to bring a drink and a "good" pie for Thursday, contribute we man.

We went to regular Costco half an hour before closing, only time to go man.

We got a huge lattice apple pie for $Many, surprisingly reasonable man.

We off-dropped it and an existing soda bottle at ex-Mrs.-T-B.'s, efficient we man.

Mini-B. appeared stressed already but we figured that he was more tired, si man.

Ex-Mrs.-T-B. was already doing business on the phone but came out as we left, si man.

Now we'll have no last-minute rush, Always Do Homework Early we man.

 

No party with the rubias tonight, no cavort we man.

Fizzicle Therapist to visit rather early, deal with shoulder she man man.

No other plans in particular, no man.

And that was/is our thrilling Monday, report we man.

Time for a pre-Thanksgiving rant.

 

My two kids and the associated grand kids as well as my wife's daughter and associated grand kids will be at our house for Thanksgiving.... on Friday!  This year we agreed that my ex-wife would get to celebrate with my kids on Thursday.  

 

I understood that my wife's bunch were coming over from across the state on Wednesday, but at the last minute they decided to come Monday...ugh.  Those two grand kids are ADHD terrors on steroids, and their parents don't bother to discipline them.  (OK, they probably don't have ADHD, but the parents aren't doing their job)  Only takes a few minutes and our house looks like a tornado passed thru.  We worked Monday and Tuesday, and today was the first time in a long while I really looked forward to going to work!  

 

I need a drink, or two.

 

More to follow.

Thrilling Tuesday report, see man:

 

Awakened by shoulder again,  man.

Had fizzicle therapy at o'dark-Many, barely prepped ourself before FT lady arrived man.

FT lady perceives spazzed deltoid and possibly mad subdeltoid bursa, oh great man.

She dry-needled/electrically stimulated us, has always helped before but see below man.

Wants us to apply diclofenac gel 1%, applicable to we man man.

She also unhosed our back, quite an improvement there man.

 

We had a coupon for Many% off at a nearby Chinese buffet, about to expire man.

We went for lunch (encompassing breakfast & din-din), si man.

This isn't a self-serve buffet with steam tables, no man.

You tell them what menu item, and they make/serve it, all one can eat man.

We got there at half an hour before noon, good arrival time man.

Verrrrry cute Chinese waitress (born/raised on Long Island) was ours, calm down Bro G man.

We ordered chunk steak + onions and beef skewers, double-order we man.

We eventually consumed Many (2+2+1) -- si man, Many (2+2+1) -- servings of each, ingest we man.

However, this process took nearly 2 hours, restaurant slammed with customers man.

The place was Many/Many'ths -- perhaps even Many/Many'ths -- full for Tuesday lunch, amazing man.

Cute waitress was adeptly racing all over the place to serve demanding customers, oh well man.

The owner & wife were even assisting the wait & kitchen staff, that hectic man.

We couldn't continue getting acquainted with cute waitress, sigh man.

And we doubt being willing to go back unless there's another coupon, F$WM.

Regardless, there were Many (2+1) pieces of good news, see man:

     1.  The food was outstanding, excellent man.

     2.  We ingested far, far more in the value of the food than what we paid for it, F$WM.

Many.  Achieving (2.) is the optimal goal in attending any buffet, F$WM.

 

Serviced expectant miu, service expectant miu we man.

Attempted a siesta, zzz we man.

Siesta truncated by shoulder pain,   man.

We texted FT lady, consult we man she man man.

She recommended ice or heat after needling of sensitive area, recommend she man man.

We iced it, we'll see what happens man.

 

Throughout all this, Mama T-B. kept texting/calling with orders and commands, active senior she man man.

All must be done to her satisfaction, not normal people's satisfaction,  man.

We now have approximately Many hours -- si man, Many hours -- of all this,  man.

So much for attending to our own stuff that she also yells about our neglecting,  man.

 

No party with the rubias tonight, no cavort we man.

Must visit Mama T-B. on Wednesday, caddy all pills that she wouldn't let us caddy on Monday man.   

We hope for no need for prohibited HSM tonight, sigh man.

And that was/is our thrilling Tuesday, report we man.
