What are you doing right now??

Happy New Year everyone. Having my first cup of the year with pancakes this morning. Maggie did great last night. The pills did knock her out and she is still a little out of it. Lots of fireworks and someone did shoot off guns but was caught by police. They did warn not to do that since a few years ago someone was hit and killed by stray bullet. We live in a city not in the woods.

The fireworks started not long ago. Both dogs are in the house now. Aunt Bee is a little frightened, but the real show won't come until a little later and then will last most of the night. We usually don't let the dogs out in the morning until daylight, because they like to bark at things in the morning and we don't want them disturbing the neighbors. My wife suggested we let them out about 4am tomorrow morning to bark their hearts out! lol

Hope everything went ok last night and you got the dogs out early this morning. Too bad if the neighbors get disturbed.

Our little dog was scared from the fireworks and never did jump on the bed. She slept on the floor. Our lab and shepherd (former dogs) were also scared of loud bangs. The lab tried digging in the closet to find shelter once and the shepherd was found in the bathtub peeking around the curtain. It took awhile to find the latter and searched the whole house.

You've had about as much as I have. My numbness is from a cervical epidural hematoma.

you know, this reminds me of the many times i'd be at my local barbershop, and the war vets would be there as well.

those guys would be comparing war wounds.

nowadays, many of us compare our surgeries, aches, and pains

old peoples stuff.....

surprisingly, when the wife and i were at our sons house, very little fireworks were being shot off.

even when we got home, just after midnight, it was quiet.

rains musta came well after 2 AM here.

that's ok though, come mid to late June, fireworks nightly........

This year it wasn't so bad. Aunt Bee did just fine. When it gets light enough, I'll go walk around my property picking up fireworks residue, as the pups think that stuff is fun to eat.

Coffee and old cartoons.

Finished reading my Cowboy Chronicle from SASS and most of the stories I cared about online. I got up about 3 am and wondered whether I should make a racket to payback those folks shooting off fireworks last night. I decided that would be wrong. Had some coffee with IC and started my news routine instead. I wonder sometimes if I'm becoming a curmudgeon and thought as long as I don't make a career out of it I'm fine. My birthday is this coming in a few weeks so I'm gonna make it a birthday month and enjoy that for all its worth. Please continue your Daffy Zone posts, you guys really crack me up.

i left the house at 9 AM, to take one of my daughter-in-laws, to find a doctors office she needs to go to, in about 2 weeks.

my son said he'd take her, but i wanted a "private chat" with her...and my wife is still "steamed" at me for taking down the tiny xmass tree early, so i needed an escape plan for today.

i knew the area, well my son not so much but he would have found it by way of Dunkin' Donuts, Micky D's, and car/truck dealerships, along the way

i go the most direct route, every time.

cool office, it has an upper and lower parking garage.

i got back a few minutes ago, now having a guava danish, and a hot tea.


if you ain't never had a guava fruit, like me, its all Greek to me, it's a tropical fruit, tasting like strawberries and pears...quite tasty.

my b'day is in January, in a few weeks too, and i am a curmudgeon, and damned proud of it too.

we older guys earned our curmudgeoness, and no one has a right to take it away....i think its in the 47th Amendment.

we are here all week, and most of what we say or do is free as well...

Put three racks of Baby Back ribs on the Traeger @ 9:30AM. Happy New Year to all.

Hash browns, eggs and sausage. Pleasantly stuffed. Carb drowsiness may come in a few minutes, but I can always squeeze in a nap before football if necessary. I might make it a jammy day, I'm not going anywhere.

Stayed up way too late last night gonna beg my wife to make me a late breakfast. What you had sounds pretty good.

Cut the Texas sage bushes on the other side of the yard and cleaned up the mess. I hate those things but my wife likes them so...... i'm stuck with them. Going to have some lunch and maybe a nap.

That’s tomorrow night…I’ll be working then, too.

Happy new year to you, as well.

Happy New Year Hans! I worked many overnights during holidays, one gets used to it after a while. You just celebrate on your own time. Double time never hurt either
