So, in the middle of the night, my MiL wakes me up. She's having difficulty breathing. Well, this is not good as she has COPD and AFib. So I call 911 and the bus comes and takes her to the ER.
Stay for a while. It becomes obvious that she's gonna be admitted. Go home. Talk to my FiL who is 95 and legally blind. Send a text to Herself in Italy. Long story short I got about 3 hours sleep.
Thank God it's
Menthol Monday.
When the buzzer went off at 0545, went into the den and commenced to drenching my head in cold water. For appearances sake a little hot water and I lathered up the COB with my newly acquired Rubberset brush. For being from the 1950's? it did a great job in the Old Spice mug. 2.5
careful passes later I had a near BBS shave courtesy of the OLD/Voskhod duo. The brush only shed two bristles.
Splashed on some Proraso Green A/S and feeling a lot more human, headed for work and several coffee/espresso cups
Hope y'all have a better day than I.
That is all(that's enough brother).
