~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

[Ginger999]

Morning all! One of my favorite breakfasts, ABC. Would Bruce like my Canadian bacon? He's sure a handsome boy!

Today we take our youngest grandson to camp for the week. I hope I can rally by 2p. Its an hour away in the mountains. I'm afraid without a co-pilot, they'd be wandering in the wilderness for days!

Here's to another day of freedom!

Did Mr. J get the hay baled, Jude?

Ginger, you’re quite busy it sounds like taking care of the grandsons and all the animals.

I am so debilitated with this foot I can hardly walk on, my hair has fallen out a lot on top, and I’m having to try to hide it with a comb-over and a headband. I have a painful tooth now that has a receded gum with an… air pocket above it. Plus numb from all the neuropathy. I have ruined my life.

I went to Huxley’s 3rd birthday party at D2’s yesterday. I enjoyed playing cribbage with some of my son-in-law’s family. That’s something I can still do!
I did not enjoy being totally ignored by ex-HB.

Rava, what a nice AF day you had yesterday! It is a blessing for sure that your kids aren’t all about drinking and drinking culture.

Dill, hopefully Mr. D is recovered from his stomach bug.

I will keep plodding on.

Good morning cafe!

Mr. J and his friend worked all day yesterday, but the hay is now in the barn.

Loved the picture of you and Bruce cowboy. Looks like you both like watermelon. lol

Another hot, humid day ahead of us with t-storms later on. Thank God for air conditioning!

Slo, sometimes it sucks getting older with all of the problems that go with it. It's important at this stage to live " in the day" as they say. Whenever I start to feel sorry for myself, I make a gratitude list. It kind of puts things back into perspective for me and I usually feel better afterwards.

House cleaning and grocery shopping are my to do list today, but at least I have more time since I retired.

Who wants to join me in another twenty four hours of freedom?

Thanks for another great breakfast, Cowboy. I'm with Ginger on that being one of my very favorites.....MMMM soft cooked eggs and hollandaise sauce! Lot's of drama at that wedding! LOL

Your day with the grandkids sounds grand, Rava! It's very lucky drinking is not a big deal for your kids. I heard a story on the news that even teens are stepping away from alcohol use these days. May the trend continue!

Yes Slo, Mr. D is over the stomach thing. Thanks for asking. I sure don't envy you having to share family time and space with your ex, but I'm sure you do it with grace. Not sure I could handle it.

Jude, glad Mr. J had a good and productive day lending helping hands to your neighbor. And yes, I want to join you for another 24.

5:18am in Alberta, another 24 please, and thanks...

In the last 24 hours, these friends have joined in for 24 hours of wellness:

Today is going to be a darn good day not to drink!

[Rava]

Good morning Cafe. Beautiful morning. I am sitting outside with a waterproof blanket over my damp patio cushions drinking my coffee. The birds are chirping and I am grateful. Slo, I hope you can just keep managing day to day the best you can. Jude, so glad the hay is done. I am sure Mr. J is glad too. Ginger, safe travels to the camp today. My granddaughter asked if she could spend the day with me at the pool. Of ourselves I jumped at that opportunity! Hope everyone has a great and sober day. Hi to Cowboy and Dill!

[abcowboy]

Glad to hear they got hay all put up Jude, and yes, I like watermelon just as much as the other Bruce lol.

Our kids aren't real drinkers either Rava, they don't abstain but they don't overdo it either. It makes our get togethers so much easier not worrying about what we should have on hand for them to drink as they never drink around me and I've told them they could have a drink if they want as it doesn't bother me.

Hope the trip to camp went well Ginger, are you feeling better now?

Glad to hear Mr D is back to normal dill, was it a stomach flu? Nothing too serious I hope.

My ex and I rarely see each other Slo and when we do it's just polite "hellos" and nothing more. I wonder how she feels about having a "Bruce" back in her house now that Amanda has moved in with her lol.

Not much on my agenda today, and I'll join you in another day of freedom Jude.

[Ginger999]

Haha! That's was funny, ABC. Your x is stuck with a Bruce!

Got grandson delivered to camp! He was so excited. We'll pick him up Friday.

Waves to all! I gratefully ask for another day of freedom!
