Not too bad, thanks, although good part of the week was recovering from long haul travel. Travel for work has been too frequent recently so I need to do something about that.
On the positive side, BBQ on Friday and Saturday, and another one in the works for today.
How was your week?
What have you been having on the BBQ? I enjoy a BBQ but we always have super simple stuff (burgers, hotdogs, pork loins etc) and wouldn't mind doing something more fancy.
My week was OK ta, just hectic and busy. Work work work, kids kids kids, it feels like I have zero free time at the moment. My wifes getting more clients which is great (£), but it means she's been working most evenings, so I finish work and she's immediately out the door and it's about 10pm by the time all the chores, kids are down etc.
I did burgers and mushrooms with cream cheese filling wrapped in bacon on Friday. Saturday I did skewers with chicken thigh, halloumi and vegetables. Sunday was racks of pork ribs and home made BBQ sauce.
Kids are a full time job. Add work on top of that and your free time is gone. Thankfully our kids are already adults, and we now have plenty of time for other things: cooking, long walks with dogs, etc.
Alright, so where's all of our invites? Sounds delicious mate!
I've been unwell ☹️ spent an entire night coughing until like 5am
So frustating! Get well soon!
Tired, but happy 🙂
I had to watch some friends pugs for them whilst they were away, and it made me realise how much I dislike these type of dogs in general.... they snore, they shit every hour, they need 4 walks a day, the constant snorting never ends, and their neediness and pettiness is boundless.
I'm firmly on team cat.
I was also firmly team cat, but my wife really wanted a dog. We now have two Spanish water dogs. These guys are clean, (mostly) well behaved and they don’t moult. They need long walks and activity, but that’s only agood thing as it keeps me going too. I have been converted.
spanish water dog
they look they'd moult if I look at them even a little funny
It's been getting hot, after a cold spell. We spent a day at the beach, but on the way home I walked into the strongest, meanest nettles I've ever encountered in my life. We may need to amputate.
I feel into a nettle bush once when I was a kid after falling off a big branch that went over them (kids are stupid). Stung like a motherfucker.
Hope your ok and nothing serious for being away.
Good, tired but good. Passed my bike license which was stressful (and expensive) - gonna miss my little scooter!
Nice good job are you keeping the scoot? Or is it Bergman time
I'm all good, kinda just lost interest in Lemmy to be honest, and I was spending my time just doing other things (reading, mostly). My interest in it seems to come in waves.
