My own personal “All my shit is fucked up” week.

First, Wednesday night, my recliner went up, and would not come
down. It’s electric, and out of warranty, so it’s fucked up.
Second, I finish swapping out a control panel on a computer
controlled refrigeration rack in Seabrook, in a hot ass motor
room. Works fine now. Another hour to program it. Test
everything, fill out a invoice, go back to the truck....The
fucking battery died. I mean dead. Less than 5 volts. Walk 3
miles to a auto parts place in the heat. Return, replace the
battery after cursing the engineer that decided to put it where
it is. Ok cool.
Come home, take shower.
And now, the video card in my tv is fucked.
My shit is all fucked up this week. 😡🤬

I brought the tv out of the bedroom downstairs. My wife used to
watch the toob in the boudoir, but not me. I go to bed when I’m
ready for sleep.
To my delight, the smoked tv is still under a Best Buy
protection plan. But you have to make an appointment to return
things. Which I have.
Since my wife passed 😢 I have settled into these
different routines. The laundry room is right off the den where
the tv is. Friday nights, I wash uniforms for the next week
while watching car shows. Saturday mornings, I wash towels,
bedsheets while watching PBS or Nat Geo. Once the towels are
done and put away, I wash my bedsheets, make a grocery list, and
pay whatever bills I have that week. After I’ve made the bed, I
put what ever jams, t-shirts, jeans and shirts I’ve worn through
the week in the washer, and go to the grocery store. When I’ve
returned and put away the groceries, I put those remaining
clothes in the dryer, and then cut and chop veggies for a tub of
salad that I and the Lad will knosh on during the next week.
After that’s done and I’ve had a bowl of salad, I hang up and
put those clothes away. Then crank up the stereo, usually to
KPFT, and I clean house. Vacuuming, sweeping, dusting, surface
cleaning, bathrooms, etc.
Thing is Jamie. Since the wife died, this house is so
quiet....It’s just me and bird on weekends. The Lad works every
weekend. He comes home during the week, at least until college
cranks back up. So I hate the quiet here on weekends

you have a bird and its quiet? youre not doing something
right... ive got two grand somoan eclectus parrots and they
will raise you off the couch if they get startled! the female
likes me, not the male bird, so it gets comical... if i dont
give attention she starts getting vocal when she hears my
voice... continuously louder until you can hear her several
HUNDRED yards away... shes on par with the lemur for volume and
his alarm shriek can be heard for over two miles. quiet... you
want an umbrella cockattoo? shes a talker... and if you
listen closely she will embarass a few folks... her former
owners husband watched porn while his wife was at work...
evidently a lot of lesbian porn... lol... not joking...

😂😀👍🏻
I have a budgie parakeet. He’s only noisy if he thinks he’s not
getting the attention he feels he deserves. He’s quite a
character. He says two things you can make out. “ Wrigley bird”
and “Who’s a pretty boy”. He’s part of the family. He usually
lands near my plate to see what I’m eating and snacks if it
fancies him. The Lad has a strong bond with him and when he’s
home, Wrigley will be close by him or on him.

Took the switch out of one the recliners in the love seat to see
if that was the issue, and it was. So my favorite spot is back
in service! Ordered a replacement switch for the live seat. Pain
in the ass doing it all though. Nevertheless,
success!👍🏻😀

Again my shit had broke. Yesterday I noticed it getting warm in
the house. Went out to check the cu and it was kaput. The dual
capacitor that helps both the compressor and the condenser fan
had blown. Of course....I don’t keep domestic ac parts on my
truck. Fortunately I have a window unit in my master bedroom Cuz
I like it cold as fuck where I sleep.
Ironic....I don’t watch tv in bed. So last month I returned the
cable box for that room. No biggie.
Was at a parts house when they opened this morning, replaced the
cap. All good.
