Someone sent me an e-mail saying I must read an article ------ I noticed it was about New Zealand and I can appreciate the fact that what happens in New Zealand is probably going to have some effect on me if for no other reason then roast leg of lamb---- but my problems are far more local
starting with the y#$%^&*() reclining chair right next to me, it certain will recline you/me... what they did not tell me is that I would have to call 911 to get out of the damn chair.
you can now add bud to the list of people who just can't seem to operate a reclining chair with its 15 buttons --13 of which stand you on your head ---one does nothing and the other one moves up. ever so slightly for maybe an inch raising the head part.
it's funny how everything resorts to ask bud... and he certainly is capable---- but not of managing this chair ---he gave up
. Lynn did get me a phone / name of the company ---goldentech.com and it has all sorts of descriptions of the comfort zone and the lower body and the upper body and the headrest and the lumber the lumbar button does seem to work very nicely it pushes on your rear just a little bit and there's a lifetime warranty on all sorts of things including one year on electrical labor well let me tell you there's this thing is just not working right --- oh yes,,...the weight capacity is 375 so I'm not I'm not a problem there.
.......
My back is better mainly because I'm learning to manage it better ---- I'm happy to report I can now both cough and laugh as long as I stand in a perfect West Point brace my shoulders back and head up etcetera but it works.
One arms length from that #$%^&*() chair is total chaos. As I tried to get some work / thinking done while tipped on my head.
gastronomical report
on the Sous vie---- Of the lamb chunks they turned out perfectly at 134.5 for much longer than I thought I was going to have them in that pot.
today I will try the bright red Chinese pork which I bought from the butchery already vacuum packaged.
I am still enjoying perked coffee--- Now with those tiny spoonful packages of actual half and half maybe--that don't need to be refrigerated.
and I'll never get to the store to get more flour so there's no brown sugar and karo syrup in sight yet
there is a board meeting this morning at 9:00 o'clock apparently which should be interesting.
and that it is chicken Sunday ----we really do need to have people buy in if they can,
Bud and I discussed the white fencing and possibly a post hole digger auger for the tractor.. And decided since it was December we were not about to start the project in January so we basically put it on hold ---- to be considered in the spring if we have not sold the whole pile of fencing to somebody else.
They demonstrate these augers so beautifully -----well if you look at what's coming out of the ground it could be cream cheese ----
our place it's gonna be rocks with the added complication of underground wires which dig safe did not even attempt to locate. with all. their rules and regulations and time i may dig or get another "permit" i know darn well there is "stuff" wires pips. conduit - on both sides of the driveway.. they only located one side and figured they "had done it"
i need to have that negative proven.....
