D-League

Hey hey! Golf today and then to a friends house. We took a ride to Boones and I picked up another pork belly for dietary reasons. [winking] Cut the skin off of it, cubed it, then made a fresh batch of bbq rub for it. Might be my best batch yet. Might let it set and marinate until Friday when I'll have time to do it up right.

Speaking of Friday. Dad has an appointment on Friday morning. That's the only time I could make it and I had to OK it with the dialysis people for him to come at a later time than usual. I have to coordinate all of his medical appointments and transportation needs. The people who are supposed to take care of everything are just not competent enough for my tastes.

I guess it's best that way because he's the only person I have to keep track of and they have many. It's worth it.
 
Evening D
Hope all are well
Happy Birthday @warrior-cat . I knew I liked you for a reason: you’re an August Leo too :smiley:

I think everything went well this morning...I’ll know next week if I have the job. I believe it’s a good likelihood

Even if I do get the job, I won’t start training until week after next so I will get to see the BahamaCats in action. Can’t wait
 
Not sure where to post this, gonna post it here to vent.

Had a friend threaten to kill me tonight. I knew he'd been going through some stuff but tonight he decided to blame it all on me(he's been depressed). Called me a toxic coward, a fake person etc. who doesn't care about him. I offered to come by and talk about it and he said if I came by he was going to blow my head off.

Any suggestions about what I should do?

Tough one but my take is keep your distance. If you have a way to have some one monitor him without getting you involved may be your best move. Good luck. Depression is unpredictable at best.

We have one mutual friend who he's also mad at but is still talking to, whose been sending me messages of their conversation. Basically saying how bad of a person I am and so on.

That actually may be a good thing. If he has stated reasons for his anger maybe he will just vent and get it all out. Add in the fact that the mutual friend can provide updates on his mood and it seems like a good idea to just stay away from contacting him until it blows over.

Good Morning D.
:basketball:8/8/18:basketball:
 
Was working heavy until noon today, office shut down and took me out to lunch. Turned 61 today and trying to get out of the office early, wife's birthday is Friday and we ride together almost everyday since she works at Ft. Sill as well so, buying her present takes sneaky skill. Going to go all stealth on them here in about 10 minutes and disappear.
Happy Birthday young man.
 
  • Good Morning, D-Leagueanites.
  • 70º in Johns Creek. Overcast. Light rain. Wet. We need some dry weather.
  • A man down here ran over his 2 year old in his driveway and killed him. Tragic. Texting. Texting.
  • Quiet.
  • Be careful driving. Stay safe.
  • Carry on.
A girl, (woman) I knew from childhood ran over her child backing out of the driveway and it literally drove her insane. This was before cell phones. A wound time will never erase.
 
A baby squirrel has found his way across the table under this gazebo with me. This has never happened before. The adults have run through here before, but not the babies. It's still raining and very wet out there. It has been with me for about 10 minutes. Smart little guy.
You can tame them until they will eat out of your hand.

This is my chip. She died in 2006.
 
Happy Birthdays Bev and Warrior!

Dad and I went to the Hot Rod Nationals today at the fairgrounds. Looked at several thousand cars. I had brisket that wasn't bad and he had a brat and a rib eye sandwich. I checked my phone when we left and in 4 hours I had taken just under 10,000 steps. Whew! That's a lot of walking for me and probably the most I've done in one day in several years. Feet didn't hurt but my legs were starting to get tired.

I came home and fired up the egg. Gonna make the pork belly burnt ends today so I can take him a sample tomorrow.

That's about all I've got.

Go Big Black!
