Tip

I went to a local pub to tip a couple of Guinness with a friend, and as it turned out, we also had an early-afternoon breakfast.

His significant other has been having serious health issues for the last year or so which has required that he spend a great deal of time at home tending to her needs. She is scheduled for hip surgery on Monday, but he had a couple of hours to get away today while she napped.

I've been dealing with issues with my children ~ most urgently, my son ~ so, it was a welcome bit of a respite for me as well.
