The New Coffee Room

We have 5 Bidets in the house. Some have hot water connections, and some do not. I don't care one way or the other.

Get a bidet!!!! Never realized how nice they were until I got one. Hard to go back!

Plus, you use quite a bit less toilet paper

Mark was evangelizing them at the time. I ended up getting a poor man’s bidet (sprayer attached to toilet) as Mayla prefers them.

I still do! We went Bidet back in 2017 or so. I was laughing at all the toilet paper hoarders. I hate pooping without a bidet.

It takes practice and experimenting.You get one attempt to get it right.

My latest "practice session" for getting the arching "leaves" or the body of the swan. If I ever pull off a swan, you will hear me scream from miles away, then I will show you a photo of it.

Happy birthday, George! Play some music today.

My feeling is if I invite you to my home and you see fit to judge it or us, inviting you was a mistake.

+1! Although I do a little crazy cleaning before a gathering.

That reminds me. The wood-work and built-in bookcases need a good lemon oil treatment. lol

Sounds delicious! I might have to pay you another visit.

Good to hear that you are not experiencing the "10/10 worst pain in your life" version.

Hope you feel better soon.

I just got the TDAP and new Covid booster yesterday. I will wait a couple of weeks and get the Shingles vaccine. Then later this year, Knee replacement surgery! Isn't getting old fun?

We are too young for this shit. Right? RIGHT???

FML.

RIGHT?

Walking (more like running) down the basement stairs did my knee in. Genetics related arthritis coupled with a torn meniscus leads to a new knee I guess. My left knee will most likely go sometime sooner than I would like as well.

Oh, high blood pressure is now my companion as well. So a new scrip for that. Had complete blood work tests drawn yesterday. I am also anticipating an increased dosage for my atorvastatin from 20mg to 40mg.

I have a 6 month weight loss goal of 20 lbs. If I can get there most of this will go away and I will probably extend the life of my left knee.

I need to get back in the saddle of my bike.

I like the CyberPower. I have replaced the batteries once. ARe you sure it just doesn't need new batteries?

I have a working class watch.

Or a Rolex.

I don't own a Mont Blanc.

I got this watch for my birthday. It's my first Citizen and the most expensive watch I have ever owned. I think it looks much better than the $430k watch that phibes posted. It's solar powered with a 20 year battery that can be replaced. I suppose the battery will still have to be manufactured in 20 years for that to be possible. Whatever, I hope I live to see the battery die.

I have an opportunity to buy a Rolex but even with the great deal of 1/3 it's actual value, it's still way too much to spend on a watch. And it's not something I could sell due to me valuing a friendship over money. If did buy it, which I won't, I would wear it but not every day.
