    Evening all. It’s my Friday. But I do have to call in for a couple of meetings tomorrow on my vacation day. Oil change for the truck, oil man is servicing the boiler, then he’s going over to my mom’s house to quote replacing that boiler. Afternoon is out on the boat alone… MIL is visiting for a few days.

    Hate to hear that. I'm headed for my second hip replacement before the end of the year. After the first one I lived in my recliner for at least a couple of weeks.

    Glad to hear that someone is getting decent care at a VA facility. The one in Baltimore is the polar opposite of your experiences, besides being in the heart of a violent ghetto. I now live almost 50 miles away from that facility and they still won't enroll me into the CARES program, even though they are required to do so by law.

    A little of this and a little of that.
    Good evening everyone.

    Steady day at work and the temperature didn’t seem like it was 800 degrees today. Maybe I have acclimated…

    QUESTION TIME 50'S!!!
    If one of your children was stealing from you how would you prefer to find out?
    My neighbor is divorced, paid child support for the last 10 years or so. Kid is now a college student here. She stopped coming by for her weekends with dad a while back - too grown up and cool to do that anymore I guess. But she does show up once in a while - mostly when she needs money. School just started, books are expensive, yada yada. She was by the other day and I'm pretty sure she was trying to get money from him. She left pissed so I think he told her no. Then she shows up out of the blue today while he's at work and lets herself into the apartment. Wasn't here long, just a few minutes. I dont think she knows I still work from home and saw all of this. Knowing my neighbor he's the kind of guy who would have some cash stashed at the house for a rainy day. And I'm pretty sure that stash got a little lighter today.
    Should I tell him? Dont want to seem nosy but when he's arguing with her about it the whole block knows whats going on so its not exactly a secret.
    Or should I mind my own business and let him figure it out on his own?

    I would casually mention that you saw her one day. Let’s put it this way, a number of years back I watched my neighbor’s older teenage son walk out with a pellet pistol in his hoodie pocket. I told his dad because I didn’t want to see something bad happen to the kid. Think of it as tough love.
