The Coffee House

[JonA_CT]

I have 85 pounds of warm, dog-balled lab in one side, and a 2.5 year old underneath a blanket that’s ten times to big for her on the other side.

Our entertainment? Little Einsteins, of course.

Mama bear is sleeping in because I’m abandoning her for most of the day to dig trenches at the brewery and to serve beer at a brew fest tonight.

Brew fest?!

Too bad I've got so many errands and chores to do today.

Doesn’t start until 7

It’s actually sort of up your way. It’s a small festival, 7-8 breweries I think, that’s supporting an educational fund in Somers. It’s wedge up between the east side of 91, 84, and the MA border. It’s an 1.5 hour over the river and through the woods trip from here...no direct highway route.

I'll have to try to get down there. Might have to take mom into Chelsea today, she hasn't decided yet. Indecision is very annoying.

Huh. If someone had told me ysesterday... The floors got professionally done last night.
I did get a little over 1.5 hours cleaning the bathrooms, sweeping and putting things where they belong.
Off until Monday morning woo hoo!

Lazy morning here do far. Sipping chai, my own mix, yum! The temps around here have modified in a good way - much cooler. Outside the birds are chirping and singing their approval of the fresh seed blend I stuffed in the feeders yesterday.

Nice morning. Happy Saturday, hosers!

Remember when Subway used to wedge their bread though? That was the worst.

And I’m up for the fourth time since 10 PM. Cutting teeth is no joke.

The problem with Subway is that most of their sandwiches all taste the same.

Headache free and ready for the weekend! Breakfast with my mom and my aunts this morning followed by a few errands then hopefully a movie and late lunch with a friend. Game Night? Tomb Raider? Red Sparrow? Probably Tomb Raider since the others won’t lose anything watching later on a smaller screen. I like to see the big action films at the theater...

Get a projector. Gary is lazy and doesn't use it much. But when he does is it quite enjoyable. It's not a big deal to hook it up, just pull it out and plug in a few cords, then pull down the screen. Outside is a bit more time as Gary has to assemble the frame/screen. Gary is very lazy.

Rent a trencher, it will take you less than an hour.

Buenos Dias Coffee Hosers. Looks like another perfect day ... Gary loves L.A. (and Randy Newman.) Funny story from yesterday. As most of y'all know, Mary Lou and Gary love the Hollywood Bowl. An old soccer friend (sons were on the same club for years), called up Mary Lou, knowing that Mary Lou likes the Hollywood Bowl and inquired if we wanted to join them for Rod Stewart at the Bowl on the 26th? Mary Lou replied that we already have tickets for the 25th ... so they also got tickets for the 25th. Now Gary has to work on the menu.

Gary thinks that Miss Maggie is the most expressively happy creature on earth.

 

[Gary A.]

Speaking of movies ... Mary Lou and Gary Netflixed Pirates of Somalia, five stars from Gary ... but he could sorta personally relate.

Wife and I seen I can only imagine last night. Excellent

4 hrs, manual labor and the body's shot. DW decided "we" (translation-me) needed another retaining wall to create another planting bed on the front of the house. Thankfully I was able to get a lot of the excavation done with the tractor and loader, but stacking blocks is PITA.

Hey, can Gary borrow your tractor, he needs to grade a small area by the pond to install some stepping stones for chairs and a table.
