I am very sorry Dear Readers for not keeping up on my end of our deal. I know that I should be writing more often and I have not been doing so. That being said I haven't heard any complaints or inquiries from you about the lack of new posts so I consider us to be even.
The Oma-nator has been with us for a month thus far and so far there has been no difference between now or if she was merely here for an extended vacation. She actually has had a calming effect on the daily activities at the Wayward Inn since nobody wants to upset her by cursing or shouting. Never fear it will happen and then that bridge will have to be re-built.
Speaking of building, I constructed a ramp at the front of the Wayward Inn so the Oma-nator can easily glide her walker from the front door to the driveway.

The weekend has been shot to hell be my Christmas cards are doe. My Lobster dropped hers off in the mail last week. And it's back to the salt mines for the two of us.
I've started doing my pre-trip planning for the road trip to the Sage's. Oh, did I mention that I was going there for Chritmas? L'il Sis will be driving out fro Cowtown on the same day that I get in. Of course I have take boat across first. My question is why doesn't BC Ferries have a fricken app that will allow you to see the current sailings and book a reservation? It's not like the company isn't making enough money that they can't afford to have some dweeb hiding in his mother's basement hovering over a triple set of computer monitors come up with a simple and effective way to make using the boats a little more enjoyable as the company fleeces your wallet while bending you over the guard rail.

The rental cat has to go. And soon. I was gently awaken by this beast chewing on my chin and licking an eye. My eye! This was 30 minutes earlier. When I responded to his demands by pushing him aside he leapt out of the way and the resumed the attack when drifted off. Finally,I had no option but to get up. Today will be a very long day. That's okay. He may have woken me up. But I made him wait 90 minutes before I fed him. Two can play at this game.
In order to maintain some sort of alertness on the job I have filled my thermal mug entirely with the Big Swede's Roof Tar coffee. This elixir is consumed readily when we are Out in the Weeds and had enough caffeine to reconstitute the dead. Well, at least the living dead.
I just caught on the news that the Russians have been banned from competing in the next two Olympiads and all international sport competitions because of their doping regimens. Good!

Did you know that many Millennials do not recognize or understand the significance of 22 Nov 1963, 06 June 1944, 07 Dec 1941 or 06 Aug 1945 or 04 Apr 1968? They simply have no clue and even worse is the fact that the history and the significance of these dates is not being stressed in school. The ghosts don't care but the living should.

Here I sit in the Ram reading a paperback. I'm a huge Clancy fan, the Jack Ryan series not the Op Center crap. But, my Better Half put me onto this Michael Connolley - The Lincoln Lawyer. I had seen the movie, starring Matthew McConaughey, and really liked it. Maybe, because he played such a sleaze bag attorney grew a concious. But the book is even better. He's an even bigger sleaze bag and of course as I'm reading it I'm hearing McConaughey's voice.
I talked to the Jr. Couch Monkey last night. He's pretty stoked on coming home from Capital City tomorrow. It'll be great to see him if only for a few days before I depart for the Sage's. We're going to go shopping on Friday. I guilted him into it plus I promised to take him to Nikkei Ramen ya for lunch. Gotcha!
