No, my pillow is not soaked in blood LOL - It does seem to be covered in dry blood in the photo for some reason. It's just a sweat statin. But that is not the point - the point is, it's a new bed. The frame is nice and solid, I had my doubts about it when it showed up, but it's rated for 600 lbs and I'm 332 lbs. So it should work. The mattress is a memory foam kind with no springs in it. The experts say they last 6 to 8 years. With my size I'm hoping for 3 years out of it. Would be very nice if it lasted longer however. The old style with springs started out at $500 and went up into the $1200 range. I am NEVER going to have $500 to spare, so that's out of the question. I think I paid about $400 for my last one 13 years ago. The foam top on it did not start to deform for a good 5 or 6 years, so I hope it's going to be longer lasting than 3 personally. This is the waste from just the mattress. 2 garbage bags of plastic, and a tone of cardboard. I had to pry ou...

 

This will be my order with the groceries. I've got 6 2kg bags of dried beans so, I won't need them for a long time. I tend to make beans, veggies and tomatoes half of the month or more. I will have 10 treats of pasta this month with all the pasta I'm getting. Also some of this order is for a night of fun. There is more to be spent on "fun", but I'm literally not telling you what that is... OK, It's gummies, and they are expensive for the amount I want. I just labeled it fun on the budget, but it's really for pain management - the fact it feels very fun is beside the point. It does mess with me a little however. I will be removing the 2 previous versions and leaving them as just links to the final budget post. (Images are clickable to enlarge). Several personal loans will be paid off and a bit will be lumped into "Debt" that will be a purchase for a persons pet. Gummies are for pain relief and I  hope they last a while. I may or may not use al...

This is going to sound harsh and brash, but if you knew this guy, you would think I'm taking it easy. So I just ran into someone who reminded me of someone we both know. I forgot to ask about this guy, we will call him JJ. But we had a bit of a talk and then he went on his way. This was a few days ago in the drug store. I'd not seen the guy in years, nor have I seen or even heard about JJ in years. I had to think, is JJ finally dead? You know after over 30 years of telling people he's dying and will be gone from this mortal coil soon. It was his big thing, "I'm going to die." Then all the sudden, there would be a miracle drug that saved him. Not that that never happens, in fact it happened to me. If it where not for Intresto, I'd probably be dead years ago - darn good chance of it in fact. I had to wonder if he had gone to the place of burning fire yet? I looked up obituaries, but nothing came up. Then I realized, "who the hell would put an obituary u...

The radiator in my apartment is bloody buzzing. I got not one clue what is causing it to do this, or how it is even possible that it is doing this. It's never done this before that I am aware of. Just strange as heck.

They repaired the cracks in the parking lot a few of days ago. First they blasted out the cracks with a powerful jet of air from the wand the guy has in the top photo, then they put in a compound to seal the cracks that has some flex to it. The flex is so it can move with expansion and contraction of the pavement. This helps prevent more cracks from forming too fast. Sooner or later they will repaint the lines for the parking spots - they do every year. Parking is rather expensive if you ask me, and I'm glad I don't have my own car, it would be far too much money for me to park in the lot, and in the winter you do need to have a plugin spot for sure. There are two spots reserved on the south end for the Housing Authority to park in, but the rest of the spots are for people living here. To modern standards, it would not meet the required amount of parking spaces for the number of people living here, but in 1974 when the place was opened, we had no such rule in the province. This...

I passed the entry exam for Mensa but gave up my membership as they were elitist. I have a diploma in data processing, information systems, electronic repair, and advanced video systems. I used to have my advanced ham ticket, but let it laps before the license changed to permanent in Canada. Never bothered to renew as I'll literally never use it again. I'm not trying to brag, I just find it interesting how many people think your stupid if you are on disability, or are a person of size. I've worked at many jobs in my life but never git hired in things I'm trained to do. As soon as you walk in and they see a plus sized person, you see the look on their face, and You know you won't get the job. I've literally been asked all manner of rude personal questions in interviews. I've also on 5 different occasions been told the job is no longer available, then a person I know gets hired by the employer days later. So I ended up doing things like labor in a grave yard, ...
