"Herd Mentality" -- GRRR!

Nor are such in any way necessary for good facility design.

 

Spain had plenty of the unisex bathroom designs in their small restaurants.

Space saving and very functional.

 

He should have welded it to a hinge....then it would have wiggled on the bumper some while he was driving along.

 

One likely wasn't at hand, though I'd worry about metal fatigue with the wiggling.

 

During the last holiday road trip, we stopped at a hole-in-the-wall joint out in the middle of nowhere (D'hanis Tx) around 2pm. Large old hotel style place that was empty. I considered this a possible bad sign (food turned out great!) but we were starving and the other choice was a gas station.......

So, we sit down close the back wall, order, and soon began being served. A few minutes later, I'll be damn if a large group including two young kids (loud) and a grandpa choose the table right next to us! And because grampy is rather, umm, large he has to pull out his chair so far from his table that the back of his chair is constantly bumping into ours.

Then a few minutes later, a young couple sit at the table on the other side of us. There were at least 15 empty tables around the place but here we all are in one spot. One big not so happy family!

 

I bet that works very well. This morning we got behind a large truck hauling gravel. Unfortunately this truck with duelly wheels didn't have mud flaps on his rear wheels. Traffic was very heavy but everyone was giving this truck a wide berth with no tailgating as he had a couple of stones trapped between wheels!.

 

O.K. I should probably get outside and cut some brush on our "farm." But, I am just over a year in recovery after a major injury and my worry is that I WON'T be able to do the work.

I love the pipe wrench story!!

So, another 10 minutes on PriusChat, before I face the dreaded pull cord on the Stihl

Oh, my point, here.

I HATE UNISEX .

 

Afraid you'll lose the couch with unisex?

 

Never touched a couch in a restroom after seeing a "used" condom on one....

has it really been a year chris? how are you doing?

 

Well, thanks for asking. I am trying to put it behind me, but pain tends to bring it forward!

It's been a year and two months and I got out of the nursing home about Feb. 7, 2019, after being injured by a head-on driver in the middle of December 2018.

Quick summary -0- on my right side, cracked lower leg bone, cracked knee cap. Leg bone was sent "through" the hip socket, shattering the socket. Right, upper arm was broken in two places, close to the elbow and close to the shoulder. Complicated breaks.

Surgery on leg and arm.

So, arm is problematic. Still has catches and clicks when using it, but it does what I want, as long as I put up with the pain. Sort of the same with the right leg. Except, if I engage in a significant amount of use (walking 3-4 miles), it wants to collapse on me LATER. Not during the initial stress, but later after resting.

All-in-all, could be better. BUT COULD BE A LOT WORSE. Not much of religious gal, but I feel blessed.

Oh, docs want to replace the hip with an artifical and pull the plate that holds my right arm together. Believe it or not, I am not onboard with those ideas. First, insurance (believe it or not) can disavow any responsibility for any further treatment for the accident (yes, I have JUST AS GOOD< IF NOT BETTER> private insurance, but....ask for details if you care).

Second, you never KNOW what might happen.

it's amazing and sad how quickly our lives can change. i hope and pray that you will continue to see and feel improvement!

 

Umm, no, but is that me modeling for it.

Our saws are all pretty old. The good/bad news is that they still have solid engines. Require a real "yank." Brushcutters require less, but not a lot less.

Don't know why I am feeling so forthcoming, but my father apparently named me after:

You had crushes on both of them? Hmm. Ms. Harmon/Nelson did lead an interesting life. Did not know she died recently.

 

ricky was better looking, and had a great singing voice

 

Yes, I can see you in that white car yodeling Traveling Man.
