My grandma, I can't very well let her go up n do it with her back and neck problems. Plus she does do a lot for me.
She sounds like my elderly neighbor. I mow her front lawn. She brings me home made delicious cake, lots of it. I'm trying to lose weight lady. Saying NO would offend her, so I just smile & thank her for fattening me up.
My state has a long weekend with Monday being Labour Day holiday. I plan to do some much needed DIY around the home. Plug the battery chargers of the power tools into the power board last night, flick the power switch on at the wall. Get up today & find that I hit the wrong power switch on the dual power switch.
This one crept up on me. Today marks the 20th anniversary of the start of the Iraq War that began with the invasion of Iraq by the US-led coalition that overthrew the Iraqi government.
The only physical unbroken things I have left from my deployment to Iraq are a dust stained boonie cap and a small button battery powered flashlight given to me in country.
I wonder if I take too much medication. 7 in the morning and 6 in the evening. I feel like it get me dizzy but my youngest sister claims that the amount I take makes me high. I think it’s just dizziness. Not like I handle machineries.
There's an older chap who gets light headed for several hours after taking his pill. The doctor ask the chap what he is taking. The chap says to his doctor it's these little blue pills.
Seeing Brazilian Jiu Jitsu abbreviated as BJJ always cracks me up... and yeah, it does so exactly because of what you're thinking. Yeah, I know, I have the mentality of a 10 year old, but I just can't take it seriously. IMO "Brazitsu" or "BraJitsu" would be a lot cooler sounding shortening.
I'm not a medical professional, and don't take this as medical advice. For that, see a real doctor. But... There is a tendency in modern medicine to medicate first, then if there are side-effects, find other medications to layer with the first to "balance" those effects. But, ultimately, piling pills on pills gets hard on the body. My mom's gone through several cycles of this over the years and usually she takes several months to balance things back out if she has to stop a medication just due to all the weirdness the active ingredients have together. Like I said, talk to a real doctor, but you may want to see if there's a way to pair that back a bit. Thirteen pops a day seems like a lot, but clearly every body works differently.
I’m impressed by ChatGPT. I’ve been playing around with it to see if it can write decent powershell scripts with minimal input and on more than one occasion it’s preemptively guessed the next thing I was going to ask it to do and added it to the script without being told to do so. I can see it being a real time saver at work.
What if pop-stars have the same kind of beefs that rappers have, but they’re a whole lot better at hiding it because they don’t sing about it in the lyrics/nobody would suspect them?
Bringing out beefs into public is so embarrassing holy hell. I know middle schoolers who were better at playing it cool than some of these so-called adults.
I used to think the 2000s were practically an ancient era. Now however, looking through IKEA brochures from 2001 & 2019 made me realize how little things have really changed. There was no radical change in fashion. Nor was there radical change in furniture, its aesthetics, what items fill a living room, what decorations - the only big difference I can see that tells me “this picture is from 2001” is the boxy 4:3 TVs that have now been replaced by 16:9 widescreens. That is literally the only indicator I can obviously see to separate the eras.
So I got 2 discs in my lower back that are not in alignment. F*ck you very much car crash for messing me up more that I knew. im relieved that I’m not paralyzed but when my back hurts at it’s worse, it’s like a railroad spike being crush into my lower back by a monster truck. my current doc gave me a sheet of paper with yoga that in my heart I know I can’t do it. I’ve been talking with her for 9 months and she told me a pain management doc will call me. It’s been a month and nothing.
You know you can't do it? Can you expound? Like I dislocated my shoulder completely, my humerus was in front of my pec. A breeze hurt. I was living alone. I had to put on my clothes and shower by myself. I rehabbed like crazy. I used to be an "arms" guy but I became a shoulders guy.
