does hubby say Holey Geezus when I am in another room with my head bent forward cleaning the ferret's litter box. Which makes my heart skip a beat ,waiting to hear the reason for his out burst.
Not being heard by moi when I call out "what", he continues to mutter more exclamations, until I finally go to where I can be heard by him.
"You can't smell that?" Moi... noooooooooooooooo. " Smells like a skunk. It's coming thru the open door.," says he.
Moi....can't smell it. Not even a hint of Pepe' L'Pew
Every time I am out of sight and he says those words or oh no, shit, oh boy, holy shit.............it sounds to moi like he is saying, " Elizabeth, I'm having the big one."
Those of you old enough to remember Sanford and Son will know what I mean.
Do I get my dandruff up when I leave what I am doing to go see what's wrong and find out it's nothing..........yuh!
He may not realize it and I would be fair in saying he doesn't...........but every time
he does make those utterances ..............it's like The Boy Who Cried Wolf.
Remember that story? I shit you not!
Always talks to the tv and I should be fully aware that is what he is doing 90% of the hours we have the tv on. Do I think it's moi whom he is talking to through the walls.....yup.
So I ask what he wants and invariably he claims he wasn't talking to moi or the tv. sigh!
Today he has 2 appointments at the V.A.Clinic locally. It's about a 7 mile drive oneway.
No highway.........................yessssssssssssssssssssssssssss! I can do it...lol
10:30 a.m. is the eye doctor and 1:30 p.m. is neurology.
The hot steamy weather has been replaced with some nice open the doors and windows weather. :0)
Hard to believe the month of June is almost over. Haven't heard if we have July 4th plans yet. Usually, I'm the next to last to know. Jill usually gives in and makes the cookout official after being asked enough by other members of the family.........are you having a cookout at mom's/nana's?
Hubby is always the last to know and he will mutter.........but accepts that we will have people in and out and the dogs barking when each one arrives or closes the door to leave.
Do I breathe a sigh of relief when the ones that don't live here ...........go home? You betcha!
Wonder what is up with Jill. Haven't seen the whites of her eyes yet.
Her new friend brought her to the front door at 9 last night.
When I got up to see why the dogs were barking and called out......who's there?
He answered saying " just me, bringing your daughter home."
Have seen her looking worst....have seen her looking better. sigh!
Calling it a night at 9.........unusual too.
Speaking of............................... she's awake. Slept in the trailer with the A/C on last night.
I shut it off in the house around that time.....it had cooled off after a T storm came through as the afternoon went on.
She let me know she is working today and Saturday and Sunday... Prepping food during the day and late afternoon cookouts at night.
Also let me know she won 10 pounds of steak tips last night after she and her friend went out to dinner.
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm ...Now we have 10 pounds of chicken that I won and the steak.
Looks like the beginnings of a July 4th cookout to moi. I shit you not!
Hubby is exhausted after taking his shower...........sometimes that happens.
Have I mentioned that with all his other medical issues, he also has been DX'd with acute bi-lateral pulmonary fibrosis. That was about 5 years back when a scan showed he had a spot on his lung.
The doctor that read his results told us he was more concerned with that, than the spot on his lung. sigh!
The spot in his lung was no longer there after a year or so. :0)
Tracie was pulling in her mom's driveway as I was getting in my car last night.
When I told her where I was headed, she asked to ride along.
Chinese food........mmmmmmmmmmmm mmmmmmmmmmmm good.
Ordered Gai Poo Lo Mein.............shrimp,lobster,pork,beef,chicken,ham in a sauce over lo mein.
It's a dish for 2 people $16.60 + tax.
Tracie got a #1..no mushrooms. chicken fingers, bonesless ribs,beef mushroom chow yoke, pork fried rice $8.65 + tax.
If she thought she was eating it at my table....I'm sorry and yes I do feel like a cad for not inviting her inside.
She mentioned she might come over later......but didn't. I may have hurt her feelings.... :0(
Need to get busy ...get my shower and maybe feel more peppy afterwards.
Keep saying, " my get up and go....has got up and went!"
If it's like .....we are what we eat.....I've talked myself into having no piss and vinegar. I shit you not!
That's All Folks!
The ramblings of a mom of 9 by her KIDS that are STILL making her climb walls ,even as adults. Said I DO 3xs and I WANT OUT 2 xs. Have learned there is no such thing as a Rose Garden. My motto is Life Is Too Short To Be Miserable. When the bad outweighs the good it is time to shit can em. Laugh with me or at me, welcome to my world.
