TGIF

I've rather lost the will to blog of late.

My baseball team is in the toilet just as I predicted the next decade would be like.
My husband is dealing with this awful Lyme disease. Now that he looks better everyone thinks he is fine. If they only knew!
I am dealing with my own health shit and that's so much added fun on this pile of shit.
Work is now coming to its summer slow down which happens every year at this time but never the less panics me a bit. We don't have work, we don't eat. You've seen me, I like to eat.

Yesterday afternoon was hot and sunny and after dinner I went out to the patio to water and feed my flowers and plants.  Within an hour of doing this I turned around and it was black as could be outside. I asked Rick, "Is it supposed to rain?"  He said, "I think most of this week." Really?  Well as soon as I said that the sky opened up and it rained so hard we lost our satellite. Of course I was watching a House Hunter Renovation so I never got to see how that turned out. But then the hail started! Oh my the hail.  
That woke up the dog, who ran to the windows and watched it hit the back door and windows. She kept turning around to look at us as if to say, "What the hell is all this shit?"

Rick turned on the music and went back to his tablet. I finished the dinner dishes. While I was at the sink he grabbed my hand and twirled me around to dance with him. Ah, the silly man. I did dance with him to one of our favorite old songs. (satisfied minds) And didn't that damn jealous dog come between us! She kept nudging us with her nose to get us apart. She wouldn't stop until we were separated. Honestly this dog is birth control. God forbid this man touch me, hold me or be close to me....she wants none of that. Oh how she loves this man and believes no one else should.  Drives me crazy.

I did see this. 

My former boss had this on his facebook page with the comment - "this is why I love the USA." (he is from Ireland, now living in Jeddah for a few more months)
We had to invest.  This is on kickstarter. If they get enough money they can go to market with this. If they don't get what is needed I am not charged a thing. But they will. This product is one of the better ones I've seen in a very long time.

With your investment you get one shipped to you. Not bad huh?
Getting one now saves me a lot of money and this simplifies all the things on the boat! 
Love it!
If you tail gate I can't imagine you wouldn't like this as well.
I don't tailgate but in summer on the boat it eliminates my need for a bunch of stuff and it is all right here in one place. Less room taken up and it has wheels. 
I like all my coolers to have wheels because I'm a wuss and can't carry when heavy and besides Rick shouldn't have to carry everything. Wheels mean I can move it from the car, down the ramp to the boat. Easy Peasy.

Have a great weekend everyone.

This has been the summer of rain so far. And it doesn't look like it's going to let up.

Mike - how are you faring? I keep seeing your state in a flood state.
You guys dry?

April - I want it. :-)

Mike said...

We are far above any floodplains in the area.

Wow, That cooler is pretty tempting.

Even up here in the tundra we are alternating between oppressive heat & humidity (it gets over 80!!), then torrential downpours for a day or two follower by a quick cool down, then it ratchets back up to near 90 again. Lather, rinse repeat. As long as it doesn't rain on golf days and the A/C keeps working, I'm a happy guy.
