Rare A&L_Ont Posted August 19, 2022 #68377 Share Posted August 19, 2022 (edited) Dinner tonight, rib eyes medium rare. Took this shot on the drive home tonight. To me it looks like a French Poodle with it’s tail raised. Maybe it’s jumping over something. 🤔🤷♂️ Edited August 19, 2022 by A&L_Ont 15 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to meet with the sprinkler repair guys at mom’s place, a zone had a stuck valve. The pool company came to our place to install a new pump, as our original one died yesterday. Then the window cleaners were at our place as well. Without fail they all arrived around the same time, on top of having a few work calls. Earlier in the morning I assembled mom’s elevated toilet seats in preparation to her return home and replaced a couple toilet tank gaskets on one of mom’s toilets. Unfortunately I shifter a tank enough that it started to drip slowly. First time I ever replaced one but it wasn’t terrible. As I said, the steak was a great way to wrap up the day. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll say you deserved it after your hard day. Good you are doing the elevated seat for her. We got one of those for me when I had my knee replacement. I don't know why they make toilets so darn low. I'm thinking of getting some of mine replaced to a higher one. 9 minutes ago, A&L_Ont said: Tonight at midnight we can do our check in for our October Mariner sailing.

We just had our second boosters today. The card is full. We went with Pfizer/Pfizer/Moderna/Moderna. (That always reminds me of "The Birdcage) So, we have covered the spectrum with the current vaccines. I hope it helps. Sailing on Navigator next month. 😄 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks again for the reminder to check for our own cruise. I wonder if we have luggage tags yet. I am already skipping ahead to March out of Tampa, and the things we have to book for that.

I don't know why they make toilets so darn low. I'm thinking of getting some of mine replaced to a higher one. I just used a potty chair with rails. Lid up, slides over toilet instead of using the bucket underneath. When you are much better it goes to the garage rafters. We already had a slightly higher senior toilet in our master. It seems kind of self-defeating to think you will need it forever. My thought is always to get back to full function as soon as possible. I haven't been entirely successful. but I am good with toilets everywhere! The floor holes in China, might be a challenge, unless there is something to hold onto. But my mom visited there in her 80's, so if she could do it, I should manage. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We picked one up at Loews for my mom a couple of years ago. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife parents collected them. Unfortunately, I don't know a lot about coins. There are books in the library that will give "appraisals." However, the rating system is something I never understood. You may already know this, but: Do a lot of research on exactly what your coins are and approximate values. Don't go to one of those places that "buy silver, gold, coins, silver plate," etc. If you sell to a coin dealer, understand that what your coin is worth and what they will buy it for are 2 different things. You will be offered a wholesale price (they have to make money too). Hope this info helps. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked most coins up on internet then took them to a coin dealer and they offered me about same thing I got from internet . This was ten years ago. Could always use a couple of thousand towards are upcoming cruises. Will keep some coins as a investment. I have a relative who offered me what coin dealer said they were worth. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sorry, but we cannot have the week of 8.28 fly by while we are on Oasis.😃 Eric is 6'3" and hated how low the toilet in our master bath was, especially when he had a broken leg several years ago. It was one of those really low ones. He is much happier now as we replaced with a taller one in 2019 when we redid the bathroom. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went to one of our favorite restaurants for dinner last night and sat at the bar. The bartender was telling me about a multi-day bourbon trail trip in Kentucky that she did with a group of friends a few months ago. She said they are planning a Tennessee whisky trip for next year. I mentioned Uncle Nearest and she said that they have both the 1884 and 1856 at the bar. I had a glass of the 1884. Wow...incredibly smooth. I really do need to find a bottle somewhere now. Thanks for telling me about it. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
