Yesterday afternoon I made the executive decision to skip my play and go home to exercise and eat leftovers. Work has been annoying, and while the process of paying for EuroHash (more on this below) frustrated me, at least it’s underway. I ate leftover Irish Stew, and drank a German Rauch Beer, bringing my two main heritages together.
Though the process has not yet completed, it took an email and a phone call to my credit card’s bank in order to send 250€ to the guy for Prague. The TransferWise website asked for a lot of information about the recipient, I got this from him via email, only to find out that I didn’t need it at all because it got auto filled when I chose his account on the website. Then my credit card transactions was declined, so I had to call the bank and inform them that it was not a fraudulent charge. Now, TransferWire is telling my that the money won’t get delivered until Monday. I can get an Amazon delivery completed in a faster time!
Today I start giving myself the first of freedom. I have a trunk load of stuff that is going to Goodwill today. This is the first of many such trips in the coming months. I am also stockpiling things that are not worthy of resell, but can be recycled at CHaRM. And all other things I encounter but no longer want will start finding themselves in my Hurby Curby for trash pickups.
I need to follow suit! I have three boxes that need to be donated, one box to try and sell on NextDoor, and a CHaRM visit is overdue. Excluding the CHaRM items, they are all sitting on the floor annoying me. But more pressing matters must take place first.
I also found out that one of my neighbors that got his SUV broken into the other day had a brand-new electronic drum kit inside. And he’s surprised his window was smashed. We have car break-ins here almost on a daily basis. I know it sucks that you have to keep vehicles clear of valuables around here, but SMH.
You can do it!
new electronic drum kit- maybe someone wanted it stolen????
LOL, no, he is some kind of teacher and it was for his class. Funny, I had a drum kit in my bedroom during my teenage years and my mom swears she never had any issue with my practicing. My next door neighbors both in Memphis and here have drum sets and I don’t love it, although I love drums.
Now TransferWise says the money will be delivered today? 🤷ðŸ»â€â™‚ï¸ I already emailed the guy telling him they told me Monday. 🤦ðŸ»â€â™‚ï¸
Decided to go out on the MTB yesterday afternoon. Was trying to make my way over to Hines Rd through the clear cut (the donkeys second home). Got to the end of one trail and decided to bushwhacked to the next.
When I realized I was in nothing but briars with no idea it would lead to a cleared trail, I retreated. Was almost back to a known point when a last sapling and briar combo whipped me right in the nose. Blood everywhere! And then it started raining. Fun!
Hoping the rain stops today (currently pouring).

Boring evening at home for us last night – Allan & his mom got a lot done on TJs workroom – so they were over it by the time I got home from work.
I’ll have to go check it out this evening.
We finished episode 3 of the Ken Burns Country Music documentary.
With no commercials – 2 hours is a long show………
just got 2 cases of wine delivered from a winery that almost got burned in the last fires in CA wine country – I’m such a sucker for a “deal”.
And Paulie- we went to a place with a pretzel as big as my head yesterday for lunch – Marietta Burger Bar. Little place, burger was pretty good, but the pretzel was awesome (served with beer cheese)
Oh really??? I might have to figure out a way to make a beer and pretzel trip to Marietta in 2020!
its right up the street from our house (boring beer menu, but they do have High Life, so Allan is ok with it)
