Another afternoon, another night, another opportunity to be stronger than before! Psychos HAPpY 

 

 

Yesterday I posted about finishing up on cleaning up after those contractors, well I cleaned our hallway out that leads to our apartment. Afterwards me & Erica got something to eat, & the plan was to finish those choirs then head to work.

We Ate

 

After lunch I sat on the couch to check me emails real fast then next thing I know an alarm I set was going off!!!

 

 

Sleep Got Me Again!!!

 

 

Now it’s time for work & I have no other choice but to “to be continued” those chores!! Work was good we had extra people come in on our shift last night & the Boss actually paired me with people who don’t mind working. So yesterday for me was very productive, I was able to complete some of my smaller tasks that I had put off earlier in the week.

 

Leave work, get home, Me & Erica are talking about how our night went & then

 

 

Sleep Got Me Again!!! I have missed eBay bids & everything because I done slept the morning away!

 

 

Not the eBay bids!!!

 

 

Anyways I’m up now & I’m feeling 

 

 

I know some of you are on your way to sleep now so

 

 

May you rest well and wake stronger than before to take on the new day! Everyone else who still has a lot of Sunday left

You, have a lot of boxing gifs in your post, is this a favorite of yours?

 

Back in the day I watched a lot of boxing and cheered for the likes of Roberto Duran, Ray“Boom Boom” Mancini, George Foreman, Evander Holyfield and some more greats! 

 

 

 

 

Now that I’m woke I can respond back to you 😀 I’m a fan, but I don’t keep up with the sport as much as I use too. My priority list is filled with other stuff right now so I haven’t really been indulging in any sports lately.

Hey @Basil

 

I was quite disappointed in IT so I will probably not watch IT 2! 🤨

 

🤨 🤔 I don’t remember you mentioning that you was disappointed with the new It. I know you read my review for it in your Thread, did you mention you thoughts? What was it you didn’t like? It does have problems, but my overall view is positive. Now Chapter 2 is a step down from the first one so seeing how you was disappointed I can’t really recommend you waste time on 2.

THANKS MATE

 

Now i confess and hang may head in shame

 

Not  seen the 1st one yet .

 

I'm  waiting for free to air or a double pack with an extended version . 

 

Apparently a lot of footage went unused. 

 

That and I can not see how anyone can top Tim Curry's Pennywise  . 

 

Yes I the book and the new version he was a lot darker yet here in I find his power in the fact that it was a slow burn unto well full on terror. 

 

 

@Scary Hair

 

The Director did say he wanted to make a large full cut of both movies making them one. I don’t know

 

if the producers want to invest in such a project but it sounds cool. Also from watching the

 

promotional run I didn’t see Bill Skarsgard topping Tim Curry either, but once I seen him in the

 

context of the movie he did well. He isn’t better but he isn’t worse either, his performance

 

compliments the legacy of Pennywise the Clown as oppose to tarnishing it. The movie’s have
 

problems but Bill take on the character is a positive.

Well  had a few crazy days .

 

Mum Run Dentist she needs 2 teeth removing that's in a few weeks . 

 

In numb up new mould taken teeth out . 

 

I pick up the new dental plate  the next day and YES our fabulous dentist is as crazy as what we are 😁🤣🤣❤❤

 

 

Then she had a Incident with a podiatrist having a blond moment with cutting too low on a big toe witch she then went and slammed into the side of the washer .

 

Antibiotics me going up and changing the dressing every few days and a trip to a specialist today and ALL IS GOOD now .

 

Not over yet

 

Last night went to our Rabbits we have 2 one had had a misshap with its personal hygiene shall I say.  A very poopy build up . So got her nice and quiet today . Started to remove the excess poop .

 

Then I thought it was something more sinister . Off to the Vet who got us in on VERY short notice. 

 

Anyway a hair trimmer later , and a good grip .

 

Nothing is wrong with her now .

 

Lavender is now safe and sound at home with a new hygiene routine set to start tomorrow 😁❤❤.

 

 

 

 

For a second I thought those stories was going to end differently, I’m glad everyone in the family are doing okay.

Have do you know what your blood Iron levels are ??

 

Last year I was SO listless and asleep at every turn .

 

It turned out my iron was 8 instead of like 15 to 18 . 

 

Anyway it might be an idea 😁❤❤

 

I know a few that said it was meh compared to the original  mini series 😳😳

I don’t know what my Iron is at the moment, but I do know I’m more sleepy because of my trash diet

 

& I’m back at work & that place is very draining. I’ve been over indulging in Taco Tuesdays & Thick Thursdays 🤤

 

 

 

 

I need to clean it up now that I’m back at work then I’ll be fine. I will keep it in the back of my mind
 

to get my iron levels checked though. If I still feel more sleepy than usual after cleaning up my diet

 

than that definitely could be the issue.

right here we go catching up binging watching yeahhhhhhhhhhh

 

@Hollywood E Rock new discovery s2 yeah damn is a must watch if a true trek fan, this season heavy reminds me of the orginal trek series from back the sixtys but it requires to watch the whole way thru, i had seen on various people saying first few eps good then they dropped it because was boring, sorry that is bull imho.

best way to see this without a shadow of doubt is to bing watch over 2 or 3 days, each of the 4 discs is about 3hrs odd.

i watched first 2 discs friday then saturday watch last 2 discs. the story did have some shocks for me how it went some of it is predictable but then there are few twists and turns the writting gets very clever and that is where you brain needs to seriously think on the science how something went then you realise quite how clever they have just been in the writing but in a good star trek way.

im not going to give anything away my missus watched a bit with me when she came in but claims to hate it all before hand then after her coming back in saturday night from a night out with her work colleages said what happened to x and what happened to y so for someone that claims to hate it all is very funny in my eyes.

so yes in my opionon its a 9 out of 10, but you must bing watch to keep up with it all or could miss out with whats fully going on.

but im a trek fan so my view could be biased

 

all the best

basil

 

 

@Basil

 

Thanks I will definitely check the show out. I was a little worried because when the show first aired the few reviews I read said that the show was for a new generation of Star Trek fans & that fans of the older stuff may not like it. But that didn’t match what I heard the show runners say about the show. As the show has continued to move along I’ve been hearing more & more positive feelings about it. My Plant is having a shut down in December for remodeling, I should have time to catch up on them then. To be continued this subject because once I view them I’ll speak back with you about the show.

@Hollywood E Rock 

 

With Lavender's age we where worried 😳😱😱

 

Shes like my Mum a tough bugger no snowflake  .

 

 

You keep an eye on your sleepiness if by some chance you end up at the Quacks then ask a question maybe Honey .

 

Life is hard enough without underlying heath issues that maybe an easy fix rather than being left to become a BIG fix .

 

I mean no disrespect to Bill Skarsgard at all . 

 

A reboot has to be enough different to the original to stand a chance of success. 

 

I find sometimes the wait for the next part a killer so for me i wait and get the full plate full so to speak .

 

 

The Ebay thing its annoying i know 🧐😞

 

Yet a better more suitable deal will be around the corner for you 👍❤💋💋 

 

Shut down in December you and Erica get any jobs out the way then

 

 

 

And 

 

I HOPE FOR YOU BOTH TO GET TIME TO RECHARGE ❤❤💋💋

You are right, I don’t have much of a choice anyways I don’t want to hear Erica fuss at me so I’m

 

definitely taking the situation serious.

I understand waiting & if the Director gets the opportunity to make his extended cut you will be

 

watching the best version of the movies. I hope he gets the chance, knowing the studio’s they are going

 

to want to make as much money off these original versions first then put out the extended version later

 

to make even more money.

Yeah that is usually how it turns out, I got over it pretty quickly because I’ll be able to get what I was

 

planning to purchase later. Like you said hopefully for an even better deal!

Oh yeah there will be much of both going on during that period! We leave right before the holiday &

 

as of right now we are scheduled to return January 20th, but if the remodeling takes longer then the

 

company will extend it to beginning of February. They have been putting this off forever seems like so

 

now the Plant has to be done because a lot of the machines don’t operate correctly. More time is spent

 

during the shifts making repairs then building production. 
 

It will be a good time, we already put our money aside for bills & stuff when we went on strike so we are not worrying about nothing.

I missed out on that release of Thor: Ragnarok, I was very sure our Best Buy’s was going to release it also to match up with the other 4K Thor releases. 
 

 

 

 

They all have the same color border & everything. My set seems off considering I have all 3 Captain America’s & the trilogy of Ironman. I’m going to have to travel to eBay & get my copy eventually.

Hi english room, wish I could check in here more often, but so much to do 😅. Have to go through so other topics soon.

 

@Basil I'm a huge Star Trek Fan and I was not very happy with Discovery Season 1, but 2 improved a lot, especially the later parts. Still not really digging most of the characters as they overdo it with the tech talk as most of it sounds like crazy talk 🤣, that was never the case before. Anyway what impressed me the most are the special effects and production value, they are fantastic. The episodes look more expensive than most movies 😳.

 

What I'm really excited about is the new Picard show, I can only imagine that it will be awesome 😍

 

Have a nice day.

 

 

[Veum]

🥤☕ good morning here, good day there... Veum here!🤠

Psychos, hope your day is more entertaining! 😘

@extantsrevenge know what you mean about being busy me and missus had a days holiday yesterday first one since summer and she wants to go shopping,

so got dragged all round the shops but made sure i got an english breakfast in me first and she paid even

must be doing something right

 

regards picard can not wait for this, be interesting to see how that come along and be waiting for a steel for that as dont have netflix. blind buy me up.

also regards the tech talk thats the whole point i really really had to think with what they had started with some of the jumps and stuff and how it panned out but it all fitted if you thought deeply about it and was extremly clever writing. so i think bonus points should be given when the writing is correct.

question becomes how often do you use your grey matter?
