Favoriting The Long Way Home with Kris Holmes: Playlist from February 11, 2025 Favoriting

Kris Holmes's avatar View Kris Holmes's profile Favoriting

Twenty years of dusty fingers, frayed cuticles, & upper respiratory infections — from record digging and DJing around the globe — coalesces into a 2-hour journey through Rhythm & Blues, Soul, Funk, Jazz, Blues, Latin, Rock & Roll, and all points in between. Your speakers will be head-nodding, toe-tapping & even two-stepping to this vintage 45rpm party in no time. Hear favorite songs you didn't know were your favorites, aural treats & record-world problems from the vinyl side of life.

Ah, plumbing issues beyond what a plunger can handle are not good. Particularly when you are your own landlord. Hope you can find a good plumber.

unfortunately it's all proving to be very expensive, 100 year old plumbing well past it's used by date

So sorry about the plumbing problem, Kris. My refrigerator took a dive a couple of days into my trip to FL. I was informed by my friend watching my pets. I had to go fridge shopping yesterday. Delivery is tomorrow. I lost a lot of condiments and some food. I ended up getting a mini fridge yesterday that I will keep in my shed/permanent makeup studio out back after this.

Yes. I'm just glad my friend was able to salvage my expensive raw dog food I had just purchased before I left and my expensive liquid collagens. She was able to take a few things to put in her fridge and freezer. Trip was fabulous! I enjoyed it!
