We did another pet sterilization clinic today. These events are free for the locals and there is education and resources provided to help them better care for their pets. It makes a real difference in the number of strays around (several locals grab the strays and bring them to these clinics). I'll post some pics later, there were some adorable pups. Now it's relax and ice cream time.

You may or may not be surprised by how many people clean their contact lenses by putting them in their mouth and do a tongue wash.
I stick mine in there when I get debris in my eyes.
I carefully rinse them under a convenient spigot when I stick them back in.
My contact lens specialist just cringes when I tell him that.

Hope you rinsed the toenail clippers in alcohol first (that's what I do, I think it's a protocol).
My wife was a cosmologist before and after a little after we got married.
She also learn how to do manicures and pedicures. So she's always had the tools.
One of those tools are nippers for cuticles.
They are a great tool for many things... even stitch removal.
No disinfectants here.
I bite on a leather strap.
It was no worse than a splinter removal.
Well 12 of them anyway.

Nope, she's selling anything of value regardless of sentimental or family attachments. She even sold the family silver and my Dad's rifle.
She's going into some kind of assisted living situation. Hasn't told me where. She is losing it in so many words.
Back in February she accused me of hacking into her computer and stealing information, whatever that means. Went off the rails and said that she never wanted to see me again. Got the police involved by asking for a wellness check and she told them the same thing. She is unable to do simple things on her computer anymore and thinks everyone is trying to stalk her on her computer when she screws it up. I was her Geek squad until I wasn't. Then I became the hacker. Even accused a CCF doctor she had a personality conflict with (formally by calling the hospital) of doing it about 5 or 10 years ago. I obliged her and had no contact. I have no idea who is advising her on any of her decisions.
So back in August out of the blue I got an email that she is selling the house cuz she will be needing the money and to come and get things. First contact was in September and last contact was today. It has all been Joe Friday, just the facts. So I lowered the door on the uhaul and she went back into the house and I went to the cab. No words were said.
We'll see. Ball's in her court now. I have to keep on keeping on. Worry about things I have control over.
I pulled the stitches out myself today.
"Paging Dr. Kurt!"
Couldn't see myself wasting time at the Immediate Care.
The wife and I varnished the garage doors this morning.
I fixed a few annoying issues on her car. Worked on the yard some more. And unloaded my truck.
Just 99 more things to do.

Going to my Mom's house to get the last bit of what she is allowing me to have. She is moving on Tuesday.
Won't let it go?
