Nude restaurant ? Talk about losing your appetite. Have you ever noticed that the only people going nude are the same people you would never want to see with their clothes off ? |

Reminds me of an incidence a few years back. We were visiting friends in Toronto and were out on the Toronto Islands. We rented bicycles and toured around. My friend Gord heard that there was a nude beach and when we went by it he wanted to check it out. My wife and I and Gord's wife declined and relaxed on a bench. Shortly Gord comes walking back shaking his head. "What's wrong" I asked? "My eyes, my eyes" he yelled.

I can see that. On the other hand, like your friend Gord, I probably wouldn't be able to see.

Just back from the supermarket having stocked up on the ale stocks for my boys 30th tonight and the wallet is looking alarmingly anorexic.

It is stressful. We both worked hard to get to the point where we can finally have a decent living and now we are back to worrying about when bills are due. We are OK for a month or two, but if this tantrum goes on any further it will be tight. Worst of all, we are still supporting her 30 year old daughter and her family. I told The Frau that we can, by scraping, survive on just my salary, but we can't handle two mortgages. Unfortunately, the loser daughter is very good at the emotional extortion and has her mother over a barrel. 30 years old and still won't take care of her self Yeah, I am pretty bitter about it.

^ Sorry this Impasse in Washington has hurt your family. The daughter is only making a bad situation worse. If it helps, Eichhörnchen says that the daughter can live under his back porch with the squirrels, rabbits and prairie dog but the squirrels, according to E, won't share their nuts. Hospitality has it's limits.
Seriously, I hope things get back to normal in your home / household very soon. Last edited by Commander Wallace; 01-10-19 at 11:40 PM. |

At times like this you could be forgiven to think of the fact you can pick your friends but not your family. Best wishes for a speedy remedy.

Thanks for the kind thoughts.
My parents were of the mindset that when I turned 18 I was to to forth and earn thy fortune with the emphasis of going forth.
