I had high hopes for today. I obviously wasn't reading the signs. I shut off the alarm at 8 only to be licked awake by Mac. We are doggy sitting for three weeks while Willie and Annie are off gallivanting.
He's a twenty pound cross bred freakin maniac. Neither Elvis or Nutmeg react when my alarm goes off. Mac goes nuts! He starts howling and then licking and climbing on me. I get all three of them off the bed, Elvis is the only one who can jump down, Open the back door and turn to see Mac peeing in the middle of the kitchen. I threw him outside with the other two and closed the door. Omen received! Then I washed the kitchen floor!
With steaming go cup of coffee in hand, I made sure the dogs were empty and headed out for my appointment with the denturist. Boris is his name, dentures is his game. He's a rather large Polish man with an accent that sounds like Boris from the Bullwinkle show. I was just getting my plate cleaned and adjusted. For Boris it's a chance to sell me new teeth. "My plate is only a year old Boris" I said " Da, in foor yeers I vill put in implants und for yoo, five tousand." in his best Cartoon Boris.
I thought, watch me pull a rabbit out of my hat!
I must be getting a little bit senile in my old age. I was looking forward to going to the mall. I can see why old people like it there. Climate controlled people watching and free refills at McDonalds. I was going to Walmart for a plastic bin for the pool stuff. I parked as far from Walmart as possible, so I could see who was out shopping at 11 on a Tuesday. Nobody. A few people in the food court but most of the stores seemed to be empty.
I got side tracked when I saw a sale $5 sign. I bought two shirts.
.
I was looking at a pair of pants, size 44, I went to the change room to try them on, that's when my day changed dramatically. Balanced on one leg, with my leg half way in the other pant leg I lost my balance. My options were to put my other foot down or fall over like a giant on a beanstock. I put down my foot, my foot hit the ground, half of one toe nail didn't.
I never bought the pants. I thought they made my ass look fat!
I thought that injured as I was, I should reward myself. I went to Tentatsu for lunch. The best $7 lunch in Vancouver.

With a full belly and a sore toe I stopped in to see Momma Lee. It was a big day today at the home. The Confederation Singers were coming, The Confederation Singers were coming, you'd think they were Elvis! Well, the youngest Confederation singer was a mere walker away from residency. They're like rock stars! I left before they started so Momma Lee could get up front. I told her , "No pantie throwing!"
I came home, got the recycling ready for pickup, picked some plums and waited for Lisa to get home and first aid me. When Lisa got home I milked my toe for all it was worth. I tried any way.
" OMG " she said " You better not get blood all over the place!" I cleaned it up, by myself! Then Lisa put the wrong bandage on my toe.
Lisa ate leftovers and went to bed. With an early call time she was in bed by 6:30. I made myself a couple of Cheeseburger lettuce wraps and did nothing.
The reason I didn't workout was my toe. I couldn't put my shoes on. So I took the rest of the day off. When Lisa has an early call time, I stay up till she goes to work. Since I have no work to go to, it's not a big deal to me. Also the three dog night thing wouldn't work for Lisa, and they whine there heads off if you lock them out.
That's all I got.
Till next time
Peace Out Y'all
