D D Splain this!!!!

Went to the noon W.W.Meeting in another town yesterday ( this one is soooooooooooooooooo much better in every way ) including the noon onstructor Nancy.   She was a hoot playing two rolls (herself and Miss Polly.) Only had a 4 oz. weight loss since I re-joined a few weeks back. :0( Expected it...sigh!
This morning I weighed myself and I had lost 2 lbs. :0)    Later after I showered I stepped on the scale naked and holy cow....another pound was gone. Splain how......trust me, I'm not going to look a "gift horse" in the mouth.  All I did differently ....was this morning ( I've been promising myself I was going to do it before my new kitchen set came ), I cleaned  my china cabinets , both inside and out. Up on a step stool, back down to the floor. Over and over. Back and forth to the sink to wash the pretties. ;0) THEN...I tried to take a nap. Was woken at least 3 times before I gave up figuring I had enough of a rest.
The thought hit me that I'd like to have my Royal Ruby  punch bowl set and  Lazy Susan down from the attic so I can display them after twelve lonnnnnnnnnnnnng years and my thoughts immediatedly ran to great grand baby Gavin. SHIT!  It will be a year before he can pull things down , ( I hope, I hope.) Still am thinking of having my son Randy go up in that crawl space attic and look for them. Know their general area. That's half the battle. :0) Packed all those pretties away when Jill moved in with Logan who was 18 months old at that time. Gil was nine and Ryan was eighteen. No longer could I display all my pretty glass. I made the choice gladly back then. EXCEPT it was only suppose to be TEMPORARY. sigh!

Jill gave me the dish with the blue iris' years ago. :0) From the looks of it,  I need to straighten it.








corner cabinet   The three clear scalloped vases were my great grandmothers as was the bowl on the bottom shelf at the rear.
Large display cabinet hold service for eight Royal Ruby dishware
Hoping to be able to put another piece of dishware in the opening below this and will post it later.
Some things I have more than eight of.
I keep my great grandmother's curved glass china cabinet in my bedroom. More Royal Ruby in it, but for the simple reason ( it's a mess ),I'll display a picture another time. ;0) AFTER I clean it out.

Tracie called last night and don't know what I said to convince her I didn't want her company, but she stayed away. Think it was the tone in my voice and lack of interest . Whatever worked..WORKED! :0)

I went to bed early. Around nine p.m. It's early for moi. At eight I called my best friend Nancy in Alaska. Knew she would be having to make supper soon as there is a four hour time difference, BUT KNEW I would not be able to stay awake til ten. She will be 75 ten days after I turn 75.  WOW! That number looks ancient. ;0)  

5:40. Tracie just called. She's in Nashua,NH. Asked if I wanted to do anything....tonight the answer was "yes." Have had TJ Maxx on my mind. Have a $10 birthday coupon...IF I spend $50.    That isn't hard to do. ;0) Haven't been there in months. That....can be good. I shit you not!
What I can't find for my cruise here, more than likely I WILL AT BEALLS IN FL.  LOVE shopping in their outlet.
Took a break to feed hubby supper. Jill,Gil,W.B. and his daughter Alex went out to eat earlier and are back now. Four hours later.   Jill was late getting started today ( per usual ). Didn't get dressed til right before they left at one. Now she is back under her covers IN BED. Alex is using Logan's computer, Gil and W.B. are playing XBOX . Jill has not had any blood work done since her hospitalization .  My guess is she is anemic. ORRRRRRRRRRRRR has WORST DEPRESSION than I do.  At age fifty, I held a full time job and made wedding cakes...sometimes three on a weekend. DAMN...how did I do that????  
Now it seems so foreign to me thinking back on it. There was NO DAY OF REST back then anddddddddddddd I read books and knitted and crocheted and cleaned house and gardened.
WOW! I was AMAZING!!!!
I'll stop tooting my own horn and bid you adieu. (((hugs)))Pat

D D My patience is wearing thin

I wrote an entire post and POOF!
Someone must have decided that you did not want to hear me whine. BIG TIME WHINING!
I GIVE!!!! If...one hits SAVE periodically as they are composing...how the efff does that happen???
There is no efffin way I can rewrite it. NOR do I want to relive it again!
I'm apprehensive about putting anything down now.
Maybe I was too long winded and the Gods That Be,  decided it  was a waste of space. ;0)
Here's the Short Of It!
I'm ready for a nervous breakdown.
Forgot three days this week to take my meds. That may be why....YA THINK??????
Tracie came at seven last night and right off ther bat I told her i wanted to watch American Idol at 8. She sat on her ass until 9 even after I kept saying I was missing the show and only when I said in a distraught way ( I need to go lay down) did she rise to leave.
The auditory stimulation in my house is overbearing., Old man sounds ( constantly when he is awake ), his blaring tv ( hard of hearing ) , his blaring police scanner ( same problem ) I have to repeat myself to him overrrrrrrrr and over, tv in parlor, tv in other two bedrooms, washer, dryer, XBOX live and his cell phone that Logan uses his  voice in like ( the people he is talking to is a hundred miles away.) The bigger bedroom he is in also has a hollow sound . sigh! Cash whining if he sees a person outside or if he sees a person walking a dog he goes apeshit with the whining and carrying on. No one, except MOI tells him to knock it off. They think he's CUTE.   NOT! The IDJUT ( W.B. ) gets him going even more in the voice he uses to him. ( Like he is sympathizing with him.)
Drawers opening, drawers shutting, toilet noises when it flushes, shower running noises, microwave door opening and shutting and beeping, things like the XBOX controls being dropped, coughing, farting.........U GET THE PICTURE or am I being unduly sensitive????
The IDJUT and Jill took off at four to get a bite to eat. Nine p.m. they come back. YEAH, I'm Fucking envious! I shit you not!

I did get up to KMart around noon. Forgot to take my return package. Wonder how that happened...........sigh
Went into the grocery store in the same plaza. THIS after Jill went for groceries two days before and spent over $200. :0(  I needed fruit, the birds needed suet. You know how that goes...$50 later I walk out of there.
New dishes came by way of UPS. One set had broken dishes. Another trip to KMART is in my future. Lucky me!
I have actually entertained the thought of grabbing a pillow and blanket and moving my car across the street to the driveway of the empty house to GET AWAY FROM IT ALL. AM I NUTS or ...OR!

Moi ....being one of them. sighhhhhhhhhhh

Logan is still not healed. Saliva is still present in pressing on the incision. Doctor will set up a cat scan in two weeks if he isn't healed. Instructed to chew on lemon drops to....???? Something about the saliva. ???

I'm disgusted about so many things. IT MUST BE ME, because no one else seems effected by this environment. I look around and get ANGRY that I have to live like this with little help. Dishes and laundry does not alone consist of HOUSEWORK! Jill can not underdstand why I am being so BITCHY! DUH!
Better post before I lose this too. You would probably be thankful if I did.
I allow it...I OWN IT! I shit you not!
(((hugs)))

Somehow...this doesn't make me feel better.
That's All Folks!

D D Me thinks....

that I am going to be in a size 14 for a long time and that's alright with me..... ONLY BECAUSE...I have so many things in that size that I really like. I'd like to get to a size 12.  It will happen....but the Will Power or drive.... just isn't as strong as it was six weeks ago.   Last night I had a chicken pot pie at Good Thymes , as did Tracie. I had 19 Points left and you can believe you me that all those were swallowed up and then some. Was it worth it? Today, I say YES!

Come 3 p.m. I had just enough of this house and  decided to get in my car, turn up the music ( country ) and get out of Dodge. Kohl's here I come! Found some nice flattering capris ( Gloria Vanderbilt)  and a pair of Docker shorts in tan..some nice summer tops and a sort of dressy top by Jennifer Lopez. A what is called "fly away" thing to put on over my tops  in white in size M. Of course...I didn't just shop for myself. Got Logan,  Hawk and Cargo shorts ( the ones with deep front pockets he loves ) some T.Hawk pullover shirts and a nice summer pull over  shirt with a collar ( ;0) in case he gets invited to a dance again. ) Tony Hawk flip flops . Once the weather is warm, he is set for awhile. Speaking of weather...it's going to be in the 60's today. Yesterday was gorgeous too.  I COULD NOT stay inside one more minute waiting for Tracie to wake up and get her happy ass out of bed. She told me Tuesday she would be at my house EARLY and 3 p.m. is NOT early in my estimation. Once in my car I called her. Got the old ...wait for me. Told her no way. Kept telling her I could drive. It's daylight still. With out coming right out and saying it, I tried to convey that she should not come today. I'll be at your house in an hour she said. Told her I wouldn't be back in an hour. SOAB if she didn't come. Told her that Jill was napping as well as hubby. That did not deter her.
She sat in my house from 4 to 5:30 when I next called her. ( from the parking lot at Kohls) I was calling her to tell her she could meet me at GoodThymes. Wasn't a happy camper to hear she was at my house. :0(
Some of my sublime messages to her last  night were, I need time by myself, I just want to be alone in my car, I don't like not being able to do things when i want to do them, if I want to play in my computer I don't want to feel like I am being rude to you, I like to lay on my bed when I want to. WHY THE HELL AM I TELLING YOU THIS????  I know damned well, I didn't use strong enough LANGUAGE!
When she told me that grandson Ryan was a little snippy in his answers to her, I told her he does have an issue with you being here on family nights. He wants to be able to talk freely and not have anything he says told to others.  That fell on deaf ears too. I just KNOW IT! Told her hubby has of late,  taken to hiding the newspaper so she can't read it.( I'm not suppose to know that. Jill told me.) Won't I be surprised when I move the bed away from the wall and see newspapers under there!!!!!!!!
sighhhhhhhh Telling her I am not going out anywhere ...should be enough. First thing out of her mouth is "what's new?" My reply is always "nothing." Then she asks to read the paper and I go searching for it.
Then she sits and sits and sits and talks and talks and talks. I told her Tuesday that I don't even get time to call my best friend in AK because of the four hour time difference and by the time she leaves, it is either meal time in AK or I want to hit my bed as soon as she leaves and not stay up to 11 p.m. to call her. By ten/eleven I just want to stretch out on my bed and unwind.
She ( Tracie ) doesn't even acknowledge what I'm saying to her. sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Time after time, I tell her that she needs to get cable tv installed. here she bought a big screen tv well over a  year ago and it just SITS THERE! I hear" I know,I know" from her. WTF do you do with someone like that??? It damn frustrating. I know that she has issues and I know her family more or less wants nothing to do with her, BUT!
Soooooooo what am I doing on this second beautiful day in a row, but sitting on my arse here in front of the computer. This HAS TO STOP. As does Tracie coming here every single day!
Jill has to take Logan into Boston for another check up and will leave here at one to pick him up at school.
Baby Gavin is here today Parents should be here by one to pick him up. I NEED TO grab a 2 Point yogurt and VAMOOSE!  Burlington Coat Factory ....TJ Maxx...somewhere!  I shit you not!
(((hugs)))
OOPOsie...forgot to tell you that today is  my baby brother Larry's seventeeth birthday. How can that be???when I'm only 39. ;0)

That's All Folks!

D D What excites you when you wake up in the morning?

This question ( possibly worded a little different  )  was asked of us that took her weight loss challenge by Christine at A Deliberate Life. It's been a few weeks that I have had to ponder this question...BUT for the life of me, I can't think of a damned thing! Getting away from my house ( by myself )  hardly sounds like an answer, cause most days ...that doesn't happen.
Oh wellllllllllllllllllll! Poor me.   A reality check is badly needed. I shit you not!

SHIT! The answer was right in front of my face, My computer...The internet.
Without this lifeline, I'd go ape shit!

Great grand Gavin's parents are sleeping in today.  LMAO at that one. ;0)  They sent Jill a text this morning at 5:30. BOTH go to work this coming Monday morning. This is going to be INTERESTING. Same goes with Jill. She has figured out that the baby sleeps for two hours after he is dropped off, so she plans on going back to bed after he is dropped off. Asked her if she didn't get enough sleep during the night. The answer to that was...no.  The dog wakes to go out a few times during the night to relive itself. So does Lady . She is sleeping in Jill's room now, under her bed in a dog bed. For years she slept in a kennel in my room, but if left to her wishes...she rather not be in the kennel. Jill says she can't fall back to sleep readily cause she has "lots on her mind." Yeah...I know that feeling. I shit you not! I will mention here that she has to come through my bedroom to let them out back and I wake during those times too. Welllllll she really doesn't have to go through my bedroom to let the dogs out cause there is a French door in the parlor that leads to the back yard too. This has been going on since what....June and I haven't broached that  ISSUE to her. sigh...Only myself to blame AND I don't have the luxury of going back to bed for more zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz's.
I keep telling myself that something is wrong with this picture...BUT do nothing about it.

Tracie came last night arounbd 7 and parked her ass at the kitchen table where I was sitting until minutes before 10P.M.  :0( Borrowed ten bucks to get a sub to eat on her way home.  I wasn't offering the leftover spaghetti or American Chop Suey. Often...she drinks a bottle of water here...no problem. Then asks for two or three to go as it's to late to go buy a gallon jug. I answer in the affirmative. Oh I do hint that she needs to get her a supply for at home....just falls on deaf ears. She doesn't buy a case of small plastic containers of water she tells me. She buys a gallon jug. Can't carry more than that  from her car into her apartment. Her arms hurt her. Like...I'm thinking....why not store the full jugs in your car like you do everything else. THEN the answer hits me. Cause they would freeze up. sighhhhhhhhh
I'm such a "patsy." That was the name my parents called me when I was young. I liked it better THEN. ;0) There was no connotation to it in my childhood.

Something cheery to write about... :0) Got a call about my kitchen set from ole Bernie and Phyl. My set will be delivered next Tuesday. That's AHEAD OF SCHEDULE!

I love my kids...just can't stand some of them.


The clock is ticking. In forty five minutes I have to get our happy asses to the chiropractor.
It's Wednesday all day ;0)  Jill has prepared prepared a FEAST( $30 worth of hamburger ) for supper., Stuffed cabbage. YUM. Ony problem....I will be out with Tracie. This is the day of the week that I tell Tracie that I would like to join her in shopping and over a meal somewhere...OTHER THAN HERE!
Daughter Michelle will be here to watch American idol with her dad and she will enjoy this meal and take a plate home for her hubby. Gransdson Ryan and his wife Sarah are coming to dinner.
I told Tracie last night that I wanted to be back HOME to watch American Idol by 8p.m. WHICH MEANS...I will be watching it in my bedroom with Michelle and hubby and it's time for her to take her leave. Which will include a "care package." If we forget to offer...she will ask. $30 worth of burger isn't to feed a family of five.
W.B. is lapping his chops too. Wasn't a happy camper when he came from work ( fire station ) this morning. He's upset that Jill will be tied down with a baby and not getting any pay. You can bet your sweet ass that he will calm down enough to chow down tonight.
Son Randy's back is feeling a whole hellofa lot better. :0)  Which means...he will be up my ass again.
Sure..he fixes stuff, but his presence shifts the entire atmosphere and I feel more stress than the usual.
He is always opening his mouth about COSTS and if hubby hears $$$$ ...need I say more. Randy gets all bent out of shape that he has to watch his mouth. MONEY is a BAD WORD to hubby. I shit you not!
Joy! Joy!

Okay, i'm pushing the envelope here. Gotta shower. It's 11:15 and appointment is at 11:50 HOLY SHIT!
(((hugs)))

That's All Folks!

D D Sometimes....I think

that I am my own worst enemy.  KNEW I had nothing in my stomach between lunch and 8 p.m. and after making the spaghetti, I ate more than my share. :0( Sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Oh...I tried to be good. Took just one cup with barely any sauce on it. Then...I pulled a Smart Ones dinner out of the freezer, turned and saw that BIG POT OF SPAGHETTI and said efff it!  Popped the Smart One back in the freezer, grabbed a dinner dish and HAD MY WAY with it. ;0)
Worst yet....this morning the scale did read a pound lighter than I was twelve days ago. I know...I've BLOWN IT! Well we know what to do  now. Pick up the big girl panties ( as Jackiesue says) and begin "fresh" tomorrow.
Til then...happy digestion :0)

It's now Tuesday...all day long! ;0)
WTF is with this new...don't give your baby any water until he/she is six months olf? Baby can suffer water intoxication and die...WTF!...What happened to the urine gets loaded with amonia and causes diaper rash?
How the Hell can an ounce or two of water cause
a baby to die???????????????????????????? It's NUTS!!! I shit you not!
Gavin supposedly was constipated and I recommended a teeny tiny bit of white karo with water that had been boiled. WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He wasn't constipated. :0) Did a nice loose crap for Jill.
Geeeez, I'm so glad I had my kids in the 50's and 60's. Too many baby books and doctors with their IDEAS online these days. :0( He weighs 11 pounds at 2 1/2 months old. I nursed all mine and they were "porkers" at that age. He is a breast fed baby too. ??? Does spit up alot. Maybe that's why. sighhhhhhhhh  His bottles hold 4 ounces of breast milk.

 As for moi.... gained 5 ounces. You can all breathe easier. I'n not committing Hari  Kari today. ;0)

So much for the baby coming at the same time every day this week. It's ten after eight and she/Sarah would have had to have dropped Gavin off and be on the highway to get to work for nine . Yesterday they both were in pj's. How's that going to work out for WORK? ;0)

Tracie called instead of dropping in. HIP HIP HOORAY!
Hinted ...no asked what plans we had for supper. I didn't mention the thawed spaghetti sauce on the counter.
ME BAD! There was plenty...I just didn't want her company. I'm rotten like that!

The Lost was Found!! Sarah and Ryan and Gavin came at 8:25 . These two will get the Hang Of It...eventually. ;0)
Jill made yummy cornbread muffins. I ate a few pieces that stuck to the pan. How else could I tell you that they were YUMMY if I didn't test them first. ;0)
   Hubby is still asleep.  I keep checking his skin color to make sure he is alive. There has been plenty of daytime noise here. Washer, dryer, dogs yapping.....oops...phone woke him.

Son in FL and he was on the phone with me the next 4 hours working on my two computers.
REMINDER to all in reading distance. NOTHING IS FOR FREE!
What you download that says it FREE has a price to pay . :0(
When he buys a computer from a store he gets rid of everything on it except the ( help me out here) the program? Windows7, Vista? The and ONLY THEN does he install what he wants on it by paying for it. When he buys direct from say like HP he tells them he wants no ad ons. Know I screwed that terminolgy up too. He does not like Nortons tools. He buys and installs Kaspersky  on his units. The one he purchased for me has 3 computers covered. Meantime I am using theie 30 day Trial of it.  He has installed that protection on all of the clients computers that he maintains. I remember now that he had a contract with a service like the one my husband has....nurse, home health aide, P.T. at home when we were there. IN FACT...he personally knew the persons that came from being in their home office.  He talked so much computer lingo today, I know nothing from what I heard. I shit you not!  When he use to make/design those computer chips when he was in his twenties...I had no concept of how all that stuff fits in one teeny tiny chip..and after him explaining it to me, I STILL DON'T!
Didn't back then and still  don't now. :0) I'm computer illiterate. I shit you not!
   So son Randy puts this shit on my computers and Sonny spent hours getting rid of the SHIT!
Some crap just don't want to LEAVE the traditional way. Made his job that much harder today.
Adware  ,PC TOOL doctor.... ...  nasty shit!
Found out from him today that I won't have the use of my laptop on the ship. :0(  I'll get over it. ;0)

Just before 4 p.m. Chrys came to cut and color our hair. Jill, me, hubby, Gil and Logan. She was here an hour and a half .
Baby Gavin went home around 4:30 ...Jill got her shower at 5:30 and I still haven't got mine...BUT my hair is colored and has been conditioned and rinsed. :0) This has been a LONGGGGGGG day!
The hairdresser loves us...not only does she make good money here, but our house is as nutty as hers. OURS she can laugh at. She had a son, DIL a 2year old grandson and a 2 month old grand daugher move in recently. Their idea of parenting isn't the same as hers.  You get the picture. ;0)

I'd better get my act together. It's 7p.m. Need to shower and read your blogs. Right off the top of my head I can think of two blogs that have word verification. Tammy...From Fat To Fab and Judy's...Anyone Home.
If I come across others, I'll let you know. Mama and baby bears are doing well. ;0)(((hugs)))from me

That's All Folks!

D D Disappointment...sighhhhhhhhhhhhh

A reminder to SELF , which would be moi!
The long awaited cortisone injection didn't come about. Oh nooooo.....  The MRI showed no stenosis. ( Was told that was good.)  Xrays of my spine were needed in a standing postion . Thankfully their machine was working, unlike my first visit to this doctor. Then the doctor comes in and tells me that this procedure isn't done in THIS OFFICE, he does it in his Nashua,NH office and he can do it march 13th and the next one two weeks later. WHOAaaaaaaaaaa , I'm away the 20th.  Okay, next time would be April 3rd. the date I return or not until May cause he's going on vacation. Geezzz the reason I couldn't see him before today was because he went on vacation.  Good for him, but NOT for me. sighhhhhhhhhhhhhh

March 13th hubby has two morning appointments at the V.A. One at ten and one at eleven. Then I have to be in Nasua,NH for two. At which time he will lay me on a table that has xray capability so that he can be sure of where he places the needle to give me the injection. Ahhhhhh, but first he needs to give me a numbing shot of lidocain I think he said...that will leave me LEGLESS. For awhile...that is and it's best to have someone with me to drive me home. Oh boy...oh joy. Looks like I will go away with only part of my problem cured and I was looking forward to doing the LIMBO on that cruise. ;0)
Do things ever run smoothly????
Ut OH! I'm not going to be back on the 3rd of April like I thought. I'll land at 12:10 a.m. the 4th. Now I need to change my appointment . My son in FL has been working on my main P.C. and laptop via remote control for the last two hours. He also filled in my crusie registration. It's nice to have a son that is computer savy. That was his vocation. Computer Engineer or something like that. He had a title....damned if I can remember it. ;0)
NOW it's 6 p.m.  Another day...shot to Hell!
Ryan and Sarah came with the baby this morning to test run what time she will have to leave their place by and head to work after dropping the baby off for Jill to watch. . These two parents are unbelievable.
My grandson Ryan is anal retentive. I shit you not! What a "worry wart."
Everything has to be planned  . Leaves nothing to "happen chance."
Jill took to her bed a few hours ago. Wonder where she is going to find the energy to watch the baby all day ....unlike the six hours they left him here today. She HAS TO have mono or something, cause she has LESS ENERGY than I do and that's going some. Twenty five age difference here.
Gil had two appointments today. One was to get drug tested. I overheard her on the phone today telling someone that he preferred AA to NA cause all they talked about was the day they could get high again. Most are court ordered and not really wanting to stop doing drugs. sighhhhhhhhhhhh

I see spaghetti sauce defrosting on the counter. Maybe I should put it in a pan and start a pan of boiling water.  It's six thrity now and she hasn't woke. Hubby must be hungry. I am...but I'll, skip the pasta. :0(

The Bachelor is on in an hour and a half. The season is almost over. What will I do? What will I do???  ;0)
From me to you (((hugs)))

That's All Folks!

D D Happy Birthday Larry


Today my second oldest is 57. How the Hell did that happen?   I'm only 39! ;0)

I've kicked hubby off of my main p.c. ....he'd watch the bears all day long.
Myself....not quite as much. ;0) It's just a little after 2:30 p.m.
My main p.c. is where everything is at.  Like that birthday cake above.  My wrists are more comfortable at THIS computer table. Kitchen table...not so much.  :0(

Son Michael his wife Sally and grands James and Erinn came to visit a few hours today. We hardly ever see them. They live a few miles beyond son Randy in New Hampshire. James must be sixteen now or nearing sixteen. Erinn will turn thirteen in May. Both are TALL stringbeans!

Jill has gone to pick up Logan at his dads and take him out to eat.  He left here in tears yesterday...well he dried them before he walked out the door as dad would be sure to shoot him down with his barbed tongue.  Dad and the Mrs. went for Chinese food before they came to the house to get him.  The restaurant is less than two miles from the house. Hell..it's cheaper that way...isn't it!
   I can't believe how much he has grown since he started the 7th grade this year.  Has gone from a size 18 and 20 jeans into Mens 31x32. My little boy is in there...somewhere. ;0) He'll be thirteen March 15th. It's been twelve years of being fortunate to have watched him grow.  He's what has kept me ....balanced. 

I made hubby and I a salad and a rib eye steak on the Foreman Grille along with some canned asparagus.  The meat was a little tough.  I shit you not!  Guess the Outbacks of the world...get the best cuts. sighhhhhhhh

GUESS WHAT???? I took a nap. A Longgggggggggggg nap. Woke to a ringing phone. It was hubby's sister Ann. Came out to use the bathroom and tracie was here sitting at the table and talking to Jill. Sooooooo that's where I am now. Told her I was not going out today when we parted last night. Told her it would be Wednesday before I wanted to go shopping. sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhh  She just DON'T GET IT! sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh  It's almost 7p.m. Almost time for bed. ;0)

I did get a piece of paper from the town hall where I was born with a state seal saying  had no name for X amount of years. Hopefully that will get me on that ship.  I've been disappointed before, so it won't be a big deal if I get turned away.  Just to be going off by my onesey to FL will be a BIG DEAL!


Okay....now to turn my attention towards giving the dogs their heartworm pill. Got to trick them with some kind of goody.
All in ALL, it's been a good day all in all.  The W.B. took his hissy fit after he left here with his daughter Alex.  Seems as though he wasn't too happy to hear that Jill and Logan were going to eat Chinese food. His daughter doesn't like Chinese food. Don't know what he ended up feeding her. Jill made her plans yesterday. He was informed. She didn't change her PLAN!  :0)  

Going to go read some posts....if there is Word  Verification, I am not leaving a comment. Sorry, but twice this morning as well as other days recently, I had to try over and OVER. My eyes can't grasp what is up there to type. Love my blogging friends, but more stress is not what I need in my life. Is there a "pill" to take for being pissed off.  :0( (((hugs)))Pat

That's All Folks!
