D D blahs.....blah... stay away from Jennifer Covertables

Raining off and on.  The kind of day that matches my mood.  Nothing specific, just blahs!
Feel like crawling back under the covers, but know the front door will open & the dogs will woof,woof.
Jill is doing the grocery shopping ...gave her the check and list.  Randy is gathering stones across the street. Actually they are much bigger than stones. Walls were made in differnt parts of the yard over there. My male neighbor lived there all his married life and passed away 4 years ago. Mel built those walls. His wife Clara passed away a year ago February at the age of 82 and the house will be sold to be divided amongst the 4 children of that marriage. Most of the houses around here are torn down and a much bigger, nicer, 2 story home is built ... the land is worth more more than the old house. More than likely that will be the fate of mine. sigh! Was told I could have them, so Randy is gathering & loading them on his truck for the 2 of us. Think he's made at least 4 trips over there since yesterday.  Intend to build a not too high wall on the left of the koi pond. Lugged a whole skid of those same type stones ( ledge )  from the driveway out front to the back of the backyard to build that koi pond by my onesy. BUT, moi was much younger then. I shit you not!
   A good friend passed away Easter Sunday.She was 9 years older than moi.  I was her only friend. She never learned to drive. Met her through Jill at bingo 23 years ago.  One of her daughters called me the following day to let me know, but she wasn't supposed to call me. Her older half sister told her under no circumstances NOT to call me,  that she would be the one to call me.  Still waiting.for that call  ...I shit you not!
Lorraine knows her mom told me everything and I know of a lawsuit she and only she knows about, except of course MOI . CVS gave my friend the wrong medication which caused her to be rushed to the hospital and she spent 2 weeks there recovering.  Left her with medical problems for life. Lorraine convinced her mother not to tell the other 2 half sisters about the lawsuit as they would be asking for money. The pot calls the kettle black...she herself still owed her mom 15K.  No death notice in the paper.. Colleen said she will be cremated.  No service.  sigh!
      Daughter in law Deb has made arrangements for a service for her dad on Mothers Day at the First Congregational Church here in town.. She and her family will be flying up from FL and a sister will come from CA.  Her dad has owned his home a mile from me over 40 years. Spent his winters in St.Petersburg,FL. Will bring his ashes up with them. Each of his 3 children want to scatter his ashes in different places.  Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!  Deb on his mothers grave as he wanted to be buried in the next grave to her and it has been sold. Sister wants to scatter them up on Mt.Washington along with their mothers ashes. The brother wants to scatter them on a golf course as Jim loved playing golf.
His sister has a plan for hers too. Everyone is satisfied with  each others decision.... Makes for NICE.
   Moi and hubby purchased their graves plus 6 more in 1977 when hubby's indigent brother a year younger than him passed away suddenly at age 39. Moi has always had a thing with hearts and we had a double heart headstone put on it. Our names and birthdates are engraved on it. When someone asked why I did that, moi would reply " becuase if I don't go in that grave, no one else will. Could have went on a cruise." 
 My parents are buried there now too. 
   For many years our insurance companies coverage representative has come to our home. Still does.
George would always tell me I should increase the coverage  I had on my life up from $10,000.
After seeing what  a few people I knew did after their spouse passed away back when...... My quipt to George was " less money he has to take some bimbo on a cruise."   Eventually, over time moi threw caution to the wind and increased it to 25K.    LOL
Have come to terms with " life is for the living."  Still have never gone on a cruise, nor has hubby.
   Time changes things.... maybe up until 10 years ago I was always freezing and told loved ones to put a blanket on me in my casket. My hands were so cold that when i went through a receiving line at a wedding I would apologize to whomever I shook hands with. Hubby standing beside me would say,  " she's dead. She just forgot to lay down."  Made for a funny, ha,ha.......
Now I don't need that blanket... no more cold hands.. Still sleep with socks on though. If my feet are cold the rest of me gets cold.   I shit you not!
   Ordered and paid in cash on 2/27/10  for a sectional from Jennifer Convertables. On the purchase sheet it states Delivery in 4 to 6 weeks.
Been calling as it's more than 6 weeks and now I am told that it won't be until June7th. Of which year wasn't stated.  grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Cancelled my order 3 days ago and was told I would receive a check in 2 weeks. hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.... Time will tell.  Noticed today that there was alot of complaints online about this store. Didn't do my homework. Back to the drawing board, when I get my money back... and IF!
That's All Folks!
