had a busy 2 days

2004-09-14T22:14:00.000-05:00

had a busy two days. See D and K's Wedding.

I'm tired

2004-09-06T22:45:00.000-05:00

I am tired, but not because of work, well, it is work. That has been stressfull.

I am tired because I did a lot of traveling in one 24 hour period. I went to Marlow, Dallas, OKC and then Elk.

Why? Because we volunteered to help my brother in law move. That is tiring.

I am also tired because my son is harrassing me about some game. Sigh, not now.

I feel bad and I want to be with Kevin tonight.

I sleep better with him then alone anyhow. Even on a standard bed.

what's new?

2004-09-01T22:38:00.000-05:00

Pretty much nothing and everything. I been planning for a really big event in our lives, and I know that it is a lot of trouble for 15 minutes, but I want everyone to have a good time. I am not really comfortable being the center of attention anyhow. But for Kevin, I will

Work is stress city as usual. I am considering getting another job. But that is another blog. I have to work so that I can pay the bills, and the house.

Good news....... hmmmmmm. I paid bills today. I still work. My fiance loves me and I love him. My family loves me. I love my family.

Welcome to MSN.com: "Pisces
February 18 - March 19
Emotions could be running high today, dear Pisces. Someone in your entourage may have a problem with an authority figure, and political issues could come up. You're likely to be feeling especially powerful yourself right now, and thus you could be tempted to throw your hat into the fray. However, it's best to stay out of anything 'political,' and channel that power and passion into a project of your own. That is far more likely to bring positive results!"

School's starting

2004-08-17T22:42:00.000-05:00

well school started and Eric is dong his homework every night. and telling me about his school activities every night. Back to the same ol same ol. As usual, he tries to tell me that me that he is flunking every thing. (He's not)

I got 3 days off coming. I have to can tomatoes and peppers tomorrow, go to certification class the next day and then... I get to see my sweetie. I do have to get back to work on Saturday.

Nothing much here. I recieved a bill from my mini storage, saying that I owe rent for 9 months. I don't think so, as I kept a cancelled check from April.. I copied the check and wrote a note that I disagree and owe them for 3 months. Let's see what happens. I am not worried as I am in the right.

I guess that is why I didn't sleep so well last night, I was worried about confronting the person. I should sleep better tonight as I am going to pay bills tomorrow. I got paid today. Whoppee!

What else can I say. Not much. I thought I lost my camera but I didn't It was right in front of my nose.

It is nice to listen to silence for a while.

Hey

2004-08-12T23:44:00.000-05:00

Hey, how are you doing?

I been busy these few weeks. you know, working. I am very tired. I should be in bed.

Eric started Jr. High. He is very excited.

Tomorrow, I am going to get some paperwork done for school and head over to Elk To see the beloved one. Only for ONE day. That sucks.

Told Kevin's mom the good news. I think she is excited for us. We also told Terry.

Do you know how it is when you try to think and nothing comes to mind like your head is full of sand? That is how I feel tonight.

Sleepy sleepy girl.

Finally!

2004-08-03T13:07:00.000-05:00

Finally able to get on. I was having trouble with the computer because I unknowingly had spyware on it that was screwing it up. I ran my spyware deletor and viola! It is running better and faster. I tell ya, I was pulling my hair out before I came up with that brillant deduction.

I got a few minutes before work and thought to put some observations in.

It is so hot, I am running water 24/7 so to keep the garden alive. Granted it is a slow trickle but I shudder at the water bill.

C2 is not so bad (the Coke) I can drink other soft drinks but they are somewhat too sweet.

"If I was a rich man" keeps running in my head.

I am off to work. Someone has to do it.

well now

2004-07-31T22:56:00.000-05:00

It has been some 2 weeks since I blogged. Well nothing much has happened. I went to work, did some stuff around the house, and went to my boy friend's house. That is just about it.

I did vote though, My choice won, But he got a good opponent now. I like them both, It will be a hard choice

I watched the Democrat's convention. It was a little inspiring but it was rhetoric to me. I guess the only way to prove it is to elect John/john and see if it will come true. I am reserving my judgement until I see what Bush/Cheney has to say.

I wish to thank Kevin for his patience with Eric doing those two days. (Thanks Honey!, I love ya)

Well I gotta go, Going to watch some tv and get to bed.

2004-07-19T23:48:00.000-05:00

Ok, I was on the net, and I came across this story of an Alligator. It is really stupid but funny in a way.

A resident died yesterday. I don't know what to say. He has been there longer then I have.

I paid bills today, even though I don't get paid until tomorrow.

I got the green car settled, It is mine for sure now.

I don't really have much to say tonight. I know that I am having roast beef or barbeque tomorrow. One more day then I get to see that loved one. I miss him so much.

Garden is doing great. Got to take pictures.

really tired tonight. Had to do drug orders.

Maybe i could convince him to go starglazing with me.

Anyway

2004-07-18T11:50:00.000-05:00

Anyway,

Typical Sunday afternoon, I have to go to work in about 2 hours. And here I am blogging for a few minutes before I get ready.

I have a habit of getting up at 9 am, drinking coffee for about 30 minutes, checking and harvesting the garden and doing a bit of house work before I get to work.

Not much mind you.

Mom finally is cutting out pjs for my neices and nephews.

She is banging in the back right now. Why I don't know.

Tomorrow, I have to go to the lumberyard and get a new bottom thing for the front door, I think I can put it in, I did the same for the back and I had to work with concrete! Oh, the joys of owning a house. I keep complaining to the landlord but I never listen!

calm

2004-07-15T21:48:00.000-05:00

It is always amazing to me that I can be with my boyfriend and be so calm even when I am stressed out in other areas of my life. He is quite literally the calm center of my life. When I am apart from him. I am jumping and trying to get stuff done and feeling frustrated. But with him, I am getting stuff done and have a sense of calmness that I really enjoy.

Right now, I am at his place and dreading going back to work.

We visited my grandmother tonight. We had a good visit, but it was short, because I don't know, I guess we said all that needed to be said. She is still hale and hearty at 88 years.

stress stress stress stress

2004-07-12T23:18:00.000-05:00

I am a wee bit stressed tonight, if you haven't figured it out tonight.

It is just a work, I got a co worker who gabs all night, a nurse that is a bit neurotic and residents who are nuts. I have to deal with all of this with "good humor".

Happy Birthday to my mother, she is 56 today. I got her a subscription to the Daily Oklahoman and Sunday Oklahoman. I hope that she will enjoy it.

Let's see, what else? The garden is going splendidly. Before long, I will start canning. I am not looking forward to the work, but a jar of tomatoes in the winter is a good thing.

I miss my boyfriend so much tonight.

One more day, and I get to see him. I can't wait.

home again

2004-07-04T21:23:00.001-05:00

well, not really. Right now, I am sitting on Kevin's couch, blogging along. I just spent 2 nights in Marlow, Ok with his family. I had a good time. We went to the Quarz Mountain State park and the Washita National Wildlife Reserve. We did a lot of walking and taking pictures. The wildlife we saw was Longhorn, Elk, and Buffalos.

We also walked around at least 4 bodies of water, climbed Mount Scott, with the aid of the Jeep, and went over to Marlow.

At Marlow, we visted with his brothers, Grandmother, and Mom. I finally got to meet his middle brother, Scott.Granny made really good food, and we stuffed ourselves.

We saw the fireworks at the Park. It was really good. Lots of lights, noise and music. I didn't really like the music, but I wasn't in charge of entertainment.

I kind of wish that Eric came with us, but he made the decision to stay at Leedey with Zac's family, because he knows that there won't be any kids to play with. I agree with him but I do miss him. Mom took some time off and visited with my aunts and Grandmother. She will be back a little later then I tomorrow. I home that she had a good time.

I have to go back to work tomorrow. I had a good 4 days off, (finally), I wish it was longer because it just makes me really sad to be away from my boyfriend for a length of time. But that is the way it has to be for now. (Sigh) Shoot, it is making me sad now just thinking about leaving tomorrow.

Well if anything interesting happens, I will keep you posted. Actually something did, but that is my secret for now. (mine, mine, mine!)

Tired

2004-06-29T23:21:00.000-05:00

I am so tired of work. We have worked short for the last 3 weeks. Believe me, I am ready for my 4 days off, Yes, count them, 4 days off.

My dishwasher finally gave up the ghost. It won't work anymore. I looked at the price of dishwashers. The cheapest they have is 375 bucks.

Well I guess, I have to really think about it. That dishwasher got me really spoiled. I don't really look forward to hand washing again. But I gotta do what I gotta do.

Reader, I wish I had a more exciting life or more political but I am not. I would rather have Bush remain as President, but only because it is better to have the Devil you know then not.

I have no desire to jump out of airplanes or anything like that. At this point, the most exiting thing to happen in this town is that the local convenience store is back in business. YEAH I get to have my cappichino when ever I want!

Oh I will expose my views and philosophy of life another time. Now, I am going to watch "Cased Closed" on Cartoon Network, and think about going to bed.

Just one more day until I see my sweetie again. Can't wait.

What a day!

2004-06-24T23:02:00.000-05:00

What a work day. I worked the last two days on day shift, which is all right. But at 5 am, my eyes popped opened and I couldn't really get back to sleep.

When I got to work, there was only one aide scheduled and when she found out, she clocked out and went home. That left only me and the nurse. She tried to get people in but nobody would show up. She had no recourse but to call in an aide that got fired.

Well, the activity person agreed to stay over. She is a CAN. So at the end of it we had two aides that worked the floor. The nurse said that I would do more good on the cart so I stayed and passed meds.

I just think that what that one aide did was unprofessional and illegal. It would be interesting to see what administration will do to her. Probably nothing.

So I am sitting here with a backache typing. I took a tylenol. I suspect that they want me to work tomorrow but if I do, that would make 10 days straight. I refused to do it.

But that is another gripe. Good news..... lets see..... I been getting ripe tomatoes out of the garden and the the plants are loaded. I still got a job, for what good that does. I thought that my dishwasher was broken but it fixed itself.
That is one of those inexpicable mysteries. My family loves me. My B/F loves me. I am getting the bills paid. I got the day off tomorrow!

Hey guys

2004-06-22T17:08:00.000-05:00

Hey guys.

What am I doing blogging at 5 pm. Shouldn't I be at work?Well I got the today and tomorrow at day shift. Which is all right except for the limited hours of sleep last night and the nurse I have to work with. I am not going to get into this work relationship with her. Let just say, that she and I don't get along.

Eric and I had a nice weekend visit with Kevin and his mom. It was too short. She had to go home on Sunday and we had to get home yesterday. Eric was happy just playing his PS2 all the time. and I got to spend time with the sweetie.

In as much as I would like to stay and type. I am going to soak up some sun, look at the garden, fix supper, clean up and get to bed.

Also I have to take some more pictures for textamerica.

just a few lines

2004-06-17T22:33:00.000-05:00

Just a few lines of blogging before the storm gets here, then I am turning the computer off.

I worked really hard yesterday down to exhaustion. I was sleeping well until the storm hit. I got up with a headache about 1 am, took a sinus pill, and watch tv to see where the storm was. I then went to bed.

This morning, all the damage was that the garden was a little wind damaged. and some leaves on the car.

Storm is gettng closer. So I will blog some more tomorrow. Eric is at Zack's house tonight, so it is very quiet. All I can hear is the dishwasher and the click of the keyboard.

Just For Fun :-)

2004-06-15T22:52:00.000-05:00

Just For Fun :-)

A Better Day

2004-06-15T22:40:00.000-05:00

I had a better day then yesterday. I helped my mom till the garden today. Rather she rototilled and I helped by raking the weeds out of the onion patch. Yep, we pulled the onions up.

Tomorrow, I will transplant more tomatoes off of the porch and clean up the porch. Maybe cook hamburgers on the grill, make some ice cream and call it a day.

I rather be with Kevin, but one day..... sigh. I really do. I look forward to the weekend.

Oh, I also have a hair cut tomorrow. I got an idea about it.

Well I guess I will call it a day for today. Watch a little tv and finish off this shaved ice that Eric made for me

really really sorry

2004-06-14T23:45:00.000-05:00

Have I mentioned how sorry I was?

Enough about that.

Typical work day. Got up, looked at the garden, Got peppers!

Went to work, we are so short, we only got 2 aides working the floor. We were legal, but only technicallly. We were very tired at the end of the shift. I also had to do drug orders.

I got this insane need for a candy bar

Tomorrow, more of the same. I plan to help mom with the garden. I hope that it will get done.

Wednesday is the day I have off. I wish that I could take the time to just goof off and do nothing. But it won't happen

To anyone reading the following, I apoligize, I was tired and ill at sorts. I really am not feeling very good. But I will let it stand because that was my opinion at the time.

I swear that I am not a mean person.

Yeah right!

But sometimes, I just feel bad and just lash out. For that I am sorry.

Tired

2004-06-13T23:27:00.000-05:00

I work in a nursing home. In order to do that I have to disassociate myself emotionally or I won't be able to get my job done.

I am saying this because my mother told me that I am cold emotionally. well I am sorry, but if I let this job get to me, I would not be able to work. It takes me about an hours to move myself from work to home emotionally. So if anyone asks me anything pertaining to work during that time. I have the tendency to respond in a "cold" manner.

I have seen enough people die and I have enough tears to float a battleship. So I have to distance myself from these people.

I do have the capibility of love. I love my son, my family, and my boyfriend with all my heart. Just don't expect me to love anybody who might die at any moment. Even though I do anyway. some of them.

Just my thought. such as it is

well today.....

2004-06-08T23:26:00.000-05:00

well today, was interesting at work.

Everything was doing OK until supper, then all "H" broke loose.

One resident told her table mate that she was going to lay down. And lay down she did, in the middle of the floor. When asked, why, she said that she was going nuts and she was hiding from the other residents so that they wouldn't observe her going crazy.

I don't think it works out that way.

At the time, another was scripping because he didn't like his pants, in the dining room.

Another was saying, my eyes itch, do something!

But I got paid today!

My Yahoo Horoscope

2004-06-08T10:31:00.000-05:00

You know how to pick a winner, but you should wait for one to arrive. Going with the best available option could lock you into a compromising position when things change, which they will. Diplomatically withhold your involvement. Listen to everyone, but don't follow anyone who's so obviously clueless about his or her direction. Imagination may be endless, but those so-called million dollar ideas are remarkably cheap. Nobody's fooling you again about things like this. Show them that you mean business, and only the serious people will ask for your time

What does this mean at work? Will I get something done? Tune in for updates at poisonddt!

Anyway

2004-06-06T10:28:00.000-05:00

Here I am drinking a cup of coffee, looking at the screen, on this Sunday morning. My other family members are asleep. I would have been asleep, if it wasn't for the dog barking to get out and the cat yowling at my window, to get some food.

I spent a really nice 2 days at Kevin's house. I wish it would have been longer.
I downloaded a spyware deleter, but I am going to say less, about that now, because Kevin said I have been cheated because I could have gotten it for free. But he relented by saying if it works, it is a good thing. But for a while, I was really embarrassed But he tested it out, and said there was no harm done.

President Reagan died! Well, looking back he didn't do so bad. He brought us out of a recession and somewhat out of a cold war.

I remember espicially that the same day as his inaugeration, the Iran hostages got freed. I was really exited about that and thought that was a good beginning. I also remembered that despite critisism of Carter's leadership, that was also Carter's doing, not Reagan.

What the media ought to do, especially the film channels, ie, TCM, should do, is show his movies. He wasn't a great actor, but he was good. I remember one movie set in WW2, in which he played a solder, but couldn't cus, so, in order to express his feelings, he said all the books in the Bible, from Genesis to Revelation. Funny, Funny thing.

Memoral Day

2004-05-31T11:51:00.000-05:00

Well, Memorial Day for me today is working. I have to work today. The good news is that I get paid double pay today. The office personal isn't there. And maybe, it will be a slow day.

The bad news is that I have to work, but I might as well, as everything is closed and there is nowhere to go.

I have been taking pictures and blogging them on textamerica. I just love it. I will update with details later on, explaning the pictures.

Eric had one of his friends over for the night. They stayed up until at least 2 am last night. Eric also cleaned out the old house to mom's satisfation. He got done way earlier then I expected. Now I have to figure something else to do then play his playstation all day long.

I did however did the Memorial thing of barbeque. I did hamburgers for lunch. Hopefully, I made enought for supper also.

Well according to the clock, I got to get ready for work. If I am not too tired tonight, I will blog some more.

The stupidest thing happened yesterday.

2004-05-29T10:29:00.000-05:00

Well first thing first, I had a really good visit with Kevin for the last 2 days, so that wasn't a bad thing.

I paid bills, and went grocery shopping, .... so that wasn't a bad thing.

But when I got home, with a car full of meat, eggs, milk and frozen stuff, AND found out that my mom wasn't home and I WAS LOCKED OUT OF MY OWN HOUSE!! That wasn't a good thing.

Mom didn't have her phone on, so I couldn't get a hold of her. So I went to the N.H and put my milk, eggs and meat in the fridge and waited on the porch. She got home by 1 30 pm and apoligized.

Note to self, get copies of keys.

Today I did.....

2004-05-27T17:40:00.000-05:00

Today, I did this. I shopped for food and stuff for the house most of the day. Kevin was nice enough to add on to this site so I can send pictures. So, gentle readers, you get to see me, my house, family, work and the local looney lol

I am now thinking of adding a storage building on my property.. I really don't want to do this, but I am already paying for a storage place at Leedey. I might as well use the payment toward the building and a few short years, it will be paid for. The only thing is that I will have to borrow the money from the bank, and that will place a lein on my car.

I havn't decided yet. But if it comes to pass, you will be getting pictures!!!

Weekends

2004-05-23T23:43:00.000-05:00

I really don't like working weekends. But that is the nature of my job. I must admit that I am jealous of those who work the 9-5 jobs and off on the weekends. I am one of many job occupations that work on the weekends. You know, the wait personalls in the resturants. Hospital workers. Walmart people, store people, not to mention the nursing homes. So when you the reader look at these persons, give them a tip if they deserve it and a thank you for taking care of you.

There, that is my gripe for tonight, thanks for listening.

The Odd Couple

2004-05-20T20:18:00.000-05:00

I would like to have a late tribute to Tony Randall. He was a great actor in theater, film and television. Also, he was a gentleman. Of his best known roles, one is always Felix, of the Odd Couple. I guess that is why I considered him the "common man's" Jack Lemmon. And don't forget, he is an Oklahoman!

2nd day of work.

2004-05-18T22:59:00.000-05:00

well, it is the second day of work after vacation. I wish that it lasted just 2 more days.

Eric had awards assembly today. Among his many awards, he had a certificate of appreciation from the ag teacher. It was for "outstanding thoughfulness, reliability, hard work and dedication in our 4-H and FFA chapters."

Way to go, Eric!!!!!

Otherwise, just a typical day.

day 6 of vacation.

2004-05-15T22:39:00.000-05:00

well, this is day 6 of vacation. Right now, I am over at Kevin's place. It is very nice and quiet. I am away from the bells and the yelling. I just dread going back to work Monday. But I don't have a trust fund, dang it, and I need to work.

Right now, I am petty much thinking about nothing.

My son has a new Friend named Zack. Zack told Eric that his parents were goth. Now I met his parents, and they are no more goth then I am. Not that I care. Anyway, it got me thinking.

If his parents were JW(Jehovah Witnesses). Would I be concerned if they came over to the house? And anyway if their doctrine says that only 7,000 persons would enter Heaven, and they have a membership of 7 million, well, the chances of making it in would be about 1 in 100.

I think I would take my chances outside. If they are right, well, 100% is better then 1 in 100, in my opinion.

Day 4 of vacation.

2004-05-13T15:33:00.000-05:00

This is day 4 of vacation. So far, I've am about 3/4 done with the back room, where this computer is located. I've moved the computer desk closer to the telephone jack and plugged it into this new outlet I didn't even know that I had because it was behind the bookcase.

I think I like this set up much better because I can reach the window. The books are much more situated. And I threw away some stuff that we will never need.

Mom is at Clinton, visiting my brother. She plans to get a new tiller because ours broke down and threw a rod. It will never work again She freaks out now because she is convinced that it was her fault. She won't listen to me. It told her that the machine is at least 30 year old. It was hard to start anyway.

Well, I guess I will take Eric to the store to get something to eat for dinner. I am going to Kevin's tomorrow. YEAH

Day 2 of vacation.

2004-05-11T21:13:00.000-05:00

well, this is my second day of vacation. I didn't do much on the house. I played momma for the day.

I went to my son's track meet here at Leedey. It was the "Big Four"; Leedey, Sharon-Mutual, Taloga, and Vici. It was held at the ball field. Eric recieved 2nd places, a 3rd, and a participant. As for me, I was the water bearer, and cheerleader. I guess it was a typical track meet, windy, dirty and bored. That was not my cup of tea, but when it comes to kids, sometimes a parent has to make a sacrifice.

The whole thing was over by 2 pm. I got home, hungry and ate something. (odds and ends) and planted okra, watermelons, pumpkins and cantalopes. I hope something comes up.

Oh, I got paid today, so I paid bills.

Other then that, not much else. I feel a little burnt on my face and tired. I hope that had a productive day but I really have to work on the back room tomorrow.

That dang cat moved her kittens into mother's room today.

VACATION!!!!!

2004-05-09T23:56:00.000-05:00

Vacation is here and it is official for the next 7 days. I am mighty tired of the politics at work. If any persons call me from work, I am going to laugh manically and hang up.

I am going to work on the house for the next few days, and then go to Kevin's house for the weekend. Have sort of a vacation from vacation. I know that I still won't want to go back.

Tomorrow's agenda: Work on the back room and get it organized and cleaned up.

Today was Mother's day. I got a cross stitch book. Mom got a nightgown from me and my son. We still had to work today.

Jennifer's family came by today and visited. They put in the air condictioners for us and their kids were remarkably well behaved.

So.......VVVVVRR

I have spent the day today working dayshift. I got up at 5 am today, after sleeping for about 5 hours. I had to work evening shift last night. However, I am bound and determined to clean up my room today, and not to take a nap. Sure I will be asleep by 8 pm. But it is worth it for the long haul.

I don't know what else to day or do. It is too wet outside to plant cucumbers and squash. So I might as well stay at home and get stuff done. I rather be with my B/F but he has to get stuff done at his house also. As do I.

I got this new smiley program. It is a hoot to play with!

Isn't that cool. Just my view of politics anyhow.

I had the best time!

2004-04-29T22:43:00.000-05:00

I had the best time this past weekend! I went with Kevin, his brother Terry and his girlfriend to OKC to see Smackdown. I am afraid that I spent most of my time screaming and whooping.
Before that, we went to a nice Mexican Resturant.

I had my son tape the show. It aired tonight. I had to work, so I couldn't see it on the tv. But like I said, I had a really good time, despite getting home by 2 am. I was so tired I was sick.

The next day, didn't do much except got a trunk to put my blankets in. I found out my cat had Kittens in the closet.

That was yesterday. Today i had to get to work. nothing much there.

Which Wolf's Rain Character are you?
brought to you by Quizilla

The rest of the forest

2004-04-24T10:29:00.000-05:00

Kevin is the Fig Tree (the Sensibility) -- very strong minded, a bit self-willed, honest, loyal, independent, hates contradiction or arguments, loves life and friends, enjoys children and animals, a social butterfly, great sense of humor, likes idleness and laziness after long demanding hours at work, has artistic talent and great intelligence.

Eric is the Cedar Tree (the Confidence) -- of rare strength, knows how to adapt, likes unexpected presents, of good health, not in the least shy, tends to look down on others, self-confident, a great speaker, determined, often impatient, likes to impress others, has many talents, industrious, healthy optimism, waits for the one true love, able to make quick decisions.

Well, I don't know. It seems that some traits are true, some are not.

This is me!

2004-04-22T21:50:00.000-05:00

I was sent a list of trees with birthdates associated with them. Mine is Weeping Willow. I hate to say this but this is petty accurate. I am going to post Eric's and Kevin's tomorrow.

Weeping Willow (the Melancholy) - likes to be stress free, loves family life, full of hopes and dreams, attractive, very empathetic, loves anything beautiful, musically inclined, loves to travel to exotic places, restless, capricious, honest, can be influenced but is not easy to live with when pressured, sometimes demanding, good intuition, suffers in love until they find that one loyal, steadfast partner; loves to make others laugh.

Another day, another dollar

2004-04-20T22:30:00.000-05:00

Got back form my 10 hour workday. I am not as tired as I thought I was.

I took the opportunity to sleep late today, even though it made me short on time to get stuff done.

I've been looking at recipes to post here, from the Encyclopedia of Cookery Hopefully short ones that don't take a lot of space. Why, I don't know, I guess to take up conversation.

Oh, change of schedule. XEDEE

Hello everybody.

2004-04-19T23:04:00.000-05:00

Hello Everybody, how ya doing?
Me, I am tired. But it is a type of tired that comes from working. I should be glad that I am working.

My son and I spent the weekend at my B/F mother's house. Had a good time visiting and eating. I never saw my son eat so much mashed potatoes in my life! I hope that they thought we were good guests.

We got up early this morning so that we could make that long drive home so Eric can get to school. Left my B/F sleeping. He said, "Just let me sleep one more hour"

Well, I am going to put up my clothes and get ready to get to bed. I have to go to work early tomorrow, (Noon) because Debbie wanted to see her daughter's ultrasound.

It snowed!

2004-04-13T20:02:00.000-05:00

Wouldn't you know it. It snowed after I put the tomato plants in the ground. It didn't hurt them though because I covered them up with planter pots, carpeting and other various items. So it looks like that I saved my plants. Yeah!

I thought that I might be able to get away from work by tying up the phone lines yesterday. But no.... one of the nurses came by the house and begged me to work day shift today. I couldn't say no. So, instead of being at work now. I got up at 5 am today and got my day done. So I guess it is a good thing.

The snow is gone. The ground is wet. I want spring to get here.

Yesterday, was the 6th anniversary of my dad's death. I thought about him a lot. I truly miss him. I guess I was in such a hurry to plant tomatoes so that I could remember him. I don't know. I am OK with it though.

isn't this the wrong time of day to be Blogging?

2004-04-12T14:10:00.000-05:00

Isn't this the wrong time of day to be blogging you ask? Well it is my day off and I am taking a little break. Also, I am tying up the phone line so my work can't call me in. lol

I just got in from planting tomatoes. It is cold outside, but the soil is warm.Eric helped. I hope that it won't snow here like in Guymon today. My aunt called, telling us this morning.

I sometimes only get one day off from work, so either I hurry around trying to get stuff done or laze around. Either way, I don't get much accomplished.

I have a big dish of pot roast and vegs in the oven. It looks like I am feeding 10 persons instead of 3. This dish will last for at least a week.

Well, it looks like nobody will call me in, so I better get off and "Clean my room" . like that is going to happen.

If anything important happens. I will come back. Right. XEEEEXX

Anyway

2004-04-06T22:28:00.000-05:00

Anyway, I am still trying to blog about my day. I went to work today as usual. It is really full moon day. Everyone was crazy.

I am on the school Easter party thing. I guess I will buy snickers, candy and plates.

I miss my sweetie! I am going to Woodward tomorrow, with mom. I would like to go to Elk, but the temptation is too great to spend the night. I will do that Friday. It is only one night, as I have to work the weekend again.

The rain was nice.

Which Family Guy character are you?

full moon

2004-04-03T22:19:00.000-06:00

I swear tonight is a full moon Everybody is crazy or mad or tired. I am ceretainly tired.

I got to spend about 18 hours with my boyfriend, which is better then nothing. He is visiting with his family right now. That is understandable as he wants to leave his apartment every once in a while. If I didn't have to work, I would be with him in his home town. (sigh) But I am not.

Kenneth was here, tinkering with the cultivator and tryng to fix mom's window. He did enough cultivating so that I could dig potholes for the tomatoes. But considering that tomorrow is Sunday. and time change. I won't do anything tomorrow but work.

Don't forget to "spring forward!"

things

2004-04-01T23:15:00.000-06:00

The things I did today was petty much nothing. I woke up too late to get much work done. However, we did get the tire on. Mom had to charge up the battery to get it to work. However, she did mow today. The yard looks much better today.
I have to get some food tomorrow. I am down to eating peanut butter sandwiches for the most part. We got food, yet, it is always that essential ingredient that we are out of. In this case, it is hamburger, bread, Ketchup, eggs.... Oh let's not get into the whole list.
I got this craving for meatloaf. I think I will fix that tomorrow night. I plan to get to K's house for the night. It will be only for one night, but that is better then nothing. I have to go back to work Saturday.
Eric got one of his Headaches again. The best thing he could do is to get to bed, and sleep it off.
Tomorrow plans are to clean up the kitchen, mop the floor, plant onions, and get ready for my date. OH, what an exciting life! lol (X)

my activities for today.

2004-03-31T22:31:00.000-06:00

I woke up this morning because the dog woke me up with his whining to get out. After putting out the dog, I decided to stay up because it was 8:30. After drinking some coffee and some toast. I paid some bills, deposited my check, and balanced my checkbook. (I am still in the black Whoopee!) I started some tomatoes and peppers and placed them at my bedroom window, because they would get most of the sunlight from there.
I then helped my mother change the flat tire on the lawn tractor. After about 45 minutes of working at it. We finally got the dang thing off. I dropped off the rim, old tire and new tire at the local garage to changed it out.
I had a quick lunch of omelet and took a bath. I called my boyfriend, who had a dentist appointment, Monday, to see how he was feeling. The call lasted a whole 2 minutes, 30 seconds. (I am not good at the phone, it is pretty much all business with me.) Checked with the garage to see if the tire was done, (no) went to the post office walked and went to work.
The nice thing about work today, was I listened to the classical station in the hallways, during work. It was nice.
Now I just got in from work, (I walked) and blogging my whole day. It was busy.
Tomorrow, I will try to get the tire on the lawn tractor. Good luck. (E Tomorrow)

Welcome to MSN.com: "Pisces
February 18 - March 19
The attitudes of others towards you, particularly close friends, may seem to be changing, and you aren't likely to be sure about what this means. The fact is, dear Pisces, you are changing, and some of your friends may like what you're becoming, and others might feel less comfortable. You can't stop what's happening - and in the long run it's going to be a very positive process. It just may be difficult now. Bear with both your friends and yourself."

Garden

2004-03-22T23:48:00.000-06:00

Well, got my garden plowed by my neighbor, so I am obligated to plant something in it. So far, I brought onions and accidentally brought some scallon bulbs. I will plant them when it gets a bit warmer. It has been a little too cold lately. So far, I planted and trasplanted strawberries in my flower bed. Maybe, it will flourish.
They are working my to death at work. Debbie has been on vacation and I have been working her shift on days. My relief is being a you know what, and won't come in. So I have been working some 12 hour days. TIRED
The house is still standing. Haven't gotten much work on it. Eric has made a deal to clean out the old house to get 100 dollars to get it done. We will see.
Haven't seen my Boy friend in a week. It is driving me crazy. Ah well keeping busy working and thinking of projects in crosstitch.
I wish my brother and brother in law would come up here and work on the tiller and put up the fans. I guess they are too busy. I don't blame them though.
I am just so tired and frustrated at work. I don't seem to be appreciated at all. But that is the story of every good worker in the world it seems like.

I know, I know

2004-03-09T23:24:00.000-06:00

I know I know that it has been too long. I guess I have been lazy. My B/F says go blog something. But in reality, it has been rather boring.
The latest news is that my dish can't get MTV, VH1, and comedy central because of despute with viacom. We will see what will happen later. In reality, I never did watch much of those channels
My birthday is tomorrow! I will be 29 years old.(LIAR!) lol. I will be spending time in Elk enjoying the quiet.

stressed out

2004-01-06T19:02:00.000-06:00

I am so stressed out. The Surveyors are here and they had to observe my med pass. I made some mistakes that I normally wouldn't have made. I was so upset, the Administrator sat me down and said that it was all right. They are not going to fire me because they invested too much time and money in me. Anyway, if it was a major mistake, they wouldn't fire me anyhow because they would invest just a little more time and money in me to make sure that I would be better.
The surveyor that got me, said you did fine, you have good techniques and know what you were doing. I just got too nervous.
The next time I have to undergo this, I will know better. I was just a little un nerving to go through anyhow. I have to do morning shift tomorrow. Hopefully they will be gone before then.
On the home front, I guess everything is going all right. I lost so much weight, my class ring slipped off my finger while I was asleep several nights ago. I wore that ring so long, I feel naked without it. I am not worried, I know that it is around the bed somewhere. The boy is doing all right. He had become a regular pig farmer. And as far as I know the B/F is doing all right also.

a long time

2003-12-26T00:17:00.000-06:00

Man it has been a long time since I blogged. Sorry guys, I either been really lazy or really busy. Lazy would have been a good word. My b/f has been getting after me for being so procrastinating.
nothing has been happening as of late. It is either work sleep, or being with the guy. Right now, I am listening to INXS greatest hits and trying to figure out what to say. It is Christmas and I had to work. I just got off about 30 minutes ago and I am a bit tired. I got some stuff, purfume and a coffee grinder. Also I recieved a stuffed snowman and M & Ms

On A Rock In Rural Iowa

2003-11-17T23:26:00.000-06:00

Check this out. Apparently this is a huge rock in a quarry in Adair County Iowa, between Greenfield and I-80. Local teens has been using it for obscenities and etc. So to clean this up, a local man cleaned it up.On A Rock In Rural Iowa

let's see

2003-11-04T00:01:00.000-06:00

hmmm let's see what happened since the last blog. Vacation came and went and it went much too fast. I still wish for at least 3 more days. Didn't do much. cleaned house a little, smooched with the B/f for about 5 days. and now I am back to work
I did have plans to have K meet my family on the 15th but it didn't work out. Mom was working on everybody to get go and then she called my brother to set it up at his house. My brother said uh, i got plans on that day. Well that sucks. If mom called him 2 weeks ago. it would have been all set up. But I refuse to let K be bored with only females to talk to. It wouldn't be fair to him when he shows up and I have to tell him that Um. their would only be my sister, sister- in-law , mom and a bunch of little kids there. That would make him totally uncomfortable. So as it is, it would be at least December or January, before anything will happen.

What in a heck is a hemi, in trucks?

Vacation is coming up

2003-10-21T23:41:00.000-05:00

Yep, I am counting the days. There is about 3 more days left and then 9 days of staying away from work. I have no definite plans. I wish I did. Like going out of state or something. I guess, if I was really by myself, that would be a problem. But I have a son to take care off and he can't miss school. One definite thing would be to spend at least 3 days with the B/F . HE is such a sweetie. To brag on him, would be fill at least days worth of blogs. Maybe I will do that. hmmmmm. lol The rest of the time will be filled with house stuff as my mom will take the good car up north during at least 4 days to see grandmother and my aunts. I can't tell her no, or throw a fit, as my grandmother is getting up there in age, and may not live much longer. That is just the way it is going to have to be. But 3 more days, 3 more days......

Been Busy

2003-10-16T23:26:00.000-05:00

I have been busy with work, so it has been several weeks since I was on. No apologies offered. I had 3 residents die in the last 3 weeks. It has been really hard emotionally. I had one day off this week and I had to go to work for inservice and CPR class. So essentially, I went to work for 4 hours on my day off. Oh well, I needed to be re certified in CPR and I did pick up my check. It was a easy 4 hours overtime. I just didn't want to go to CPR doing my vacation. I plan to stay away from it the whole time.
Eric wants to show pigs. I told him that he has a year to do this. If he doesn't prove up to this responsibility, it will go to the butcher. He seems to accept it. and excited for some strange reason. I am sort of in a good mood. 24 hours until I get to see the B/f for a whole weekend. YEAH!

Mice to test Bush’s food in Thailand

2003-10-05T23:37:00.000-05:00

Mice to test Bush’s food in Thailand
Now this got me thinking. How are they going to inject the food into the mice? Are they going to inject in the stomach or into the bloodstream? And also... wouldn't it be easier to have the mice eat the stuff? All in all, how do we know if the mice won't be served as a dish at the dinner. Just to be gross. All this has gotten way overboard in the security department.
What a minute. Let's go all out and get an actual food taster for Mr. Bush. After all what is good for Saddam Husein is good for our president. A word of advice though, if one does get the job, better not tell Bush that you know a great girl for a second wife. You might get killed by one of his daughters. Just like S.D's

I am too cheap

2003-10-03T23:31:00.000-05:00

I guess I am too cheap. I figured out how to download ring tones off of the Internet, yet, I am too cheap to pay for it. I used to know this good site for freebies, but they want money. Granted. 2 bucks is good price for a tone, but I will not pay for it. No matter what the novelty is in having a "Adam's family theme" on the cell.
What's new? not much. I probably have about 10 hours of over time this week, if not more. I am not complaining about the money. Just Have to work to dang hard for it. I miss the b/f. I haven't seen him in about 3 days. It will be about 4 more, if they didn't take my days off away from me. Eric needs Jeans and shoes.
In a word. AAAARRRRGGGGGG!!!!

caught her!

2003-10-03T00:12:00.000-05:00

Remember that incident with the drug stealing a few weeks ago? Well, they finally caught her!
The drug store called us and ask us if we ordered Lortab for a resident. We said that we hadn't so they knew something was up. So they called the police and waited.
It turns out it was an temp CMA that we have been using for the past 7 years. She used our good name and faked a script so that she could steal to "Help the pain in her back" Let's face it, she got addicted.
In a way, I do feel sorry for her. She had some hard times in her life. But she made the decision to do this. Nobody forced her to do this. Now, she lost her certification as a CNA/CMA, lost her job, pay a major fine, and probably serve some jail time. The worst thing I think for us is..... that she lost our trust. She will never work in our nursing home nor any in the medical field again. We were mad that she did this. We were p.oed. God hopes that I won't do what she did. And I think I won't.

not much going on

2003-09-29T00:26:00.000-05:00

Not much going on these last few days. I just been working at the ol job and trying to earn that pay check so I could pay "Bill". Eric has just been to the State Fair with my brother's family, and he had a great time. He ate so much that he didn't eat any supper. I wish I could have went, but had to work.
Plans for the future: Get through tomorrow, and go see the B/F Tuesday. I plan to fix a really good supper or dinner for him. He better come hungry.
Right now I have no opinions. Just going to blog and get to bed.

boo hoo for the telemarketers.

2003-09-25T23:12:00.000-05:00

Oh the latest boo ha from the telemarketers. This is quote for the "Judge" that ruled in the latest development.

Friedman described the ruling as an “equal protection call.”
“It takes the approach of something like this. ... Ask yourself, is a call from a telemarketer trying to sell books any more invasive than call from the American Cancer Society?” he said. “The government can’t regulate one and not regulate the other.”
Well I think that they are both invasive myself. The point is I have the right to chose to talk to on my phone. They have a serious deficient of calling doing my family time. I much rather not deal with anyone who calls me out of the blue wanting my money. And if I wanted to buy something. I will make contact with the person or company dealing with the merchandise. That is that. I wonder if the judge would be so generous if he took calls from companies he never heard of.
Now to be honest. I have dealt and brought from spectators. (My B/f will tell on me and and say, "Now Donna, remember the time.....") But I have hung up on more people or computers then to listen to them.

bad movies

2003-09-20T00:16:00.000-05:00

My B/f loves bad movies, the worse they are, the better he likes them. I just watched What's up Tiger Lily And man, is it bad. It is one of the worse movies I have ever seen. It was a re dubbed movie from Japan. It was made in 1966. Woody Allen got a hold of it and got rid of the soundtrack and dubbed in voices. So the whole plot changed into a spy trying to get a hold of the best egg salad recipe in the world. In reality, it was somewhat funny. Not ha ha funny, but I did get a chuckle out of it. So.... I guess I will recommend it. Now only if I could find it.

got back late

2003-09-15T23:36:00.000-05:00

I got back late tonight from work. I had to do drug orders and check in two new people today. I am still not sure if I did all of the drugs. Oh, well. I can get them Thursday. I am just tired tonight. I weighed myself today. I weighed 3 pounds less then I did. I think though it is water wieght. I don't feel any different. I finally got the garage cleaned out. Will have to do some arranging to fit the car in, but that is fine.
I going to go to bed though. I am going to take some tylenol, eat something, ( I'm hungry) and try to relax.

Plans for tomorrow

2003-09-13T00:03:00.000-05:00

Well, I can't go to see the B/F tomorrow. He has to do some family stuff and he won't have time to deal with me tomorrow. Not that I am hard to please. So, I will stay at home and do some stuff around the yard. Hopefully, I will clean out the garage enough so I can fit the car into it for the winter. I am not looking forward to the work involved.
State Fair is here. I would like to go, but this weekend is the last free weekend I have for this month. I hope for Eric sake, that my brother Kenneth will be able to take him with his family this year. It looks like I won't be able to make it.

Disturbing Story.

2003-09-11T22:43:00.000-05:00

This is a true story. It happened day before yesterday. It shows the disturbing problems of drug abuse and fraud. The names have be changed because, I don't want to be sued.
Several days ago, one of our resident's daughters called the nursing home asking us why we ordered eye drops from EZ drug, when we should have used our local pharmacy. The nurse looked into our ordering records and found no record of eye drops, so she called EZ Drug. The pharmacist said, it wasn't eye drops, but it was generic Lortab. Our nurse look in the Medication Records and found that our resident does not have a order nor ever had a order for Lortab, so she called EZ Drug back.
The pharmacist said, a woman by the name of Joann called and said that she was from our facility and ordered Lortab 7.5 4 to 6 hours prn and the pharmacist thought that she was an actual nurse but the way she said the order. Our nurse said that there was no nurse by that name working here. and asked when the drug was mailed.
The pharmacist said, that it wasn't mailed. It was picked up by a girl in a uniform who said was Joan Doe. Our nurse said there is no such person by that name working at our facility either. That is when the Pharmacist said "we been conned." Anyway, the pharmacist said to tell the family that there will be no charge.
Well, I thought that was awfully nice. (Sarcasm) There got to be some safeguards in this business. I don't know what. But there is somebody out there who is either making illegal money or getting a illegal high out there and laughing how they were able to defraud the pharmacy. Now I am no big fan of pharmacies, yet they will pass the cost to us. The just burns me.
Another note. today, is the second anniversary of the bombing. We must remember the way that we felt when that happened. Stand strong and proud and not ashamed for what we stand for. Words cannot express what I am feeling right now. I guess I am still angry and sad for the 2,000 plus lives that were lost. I feel angry at the young children and babies that lost their lives. The moms and dads, brothers and sisters, husbands and wives best friends and many other forms of relationships that were severed because of one little tiny bastard.

Horoscope for the week.

2003-09-09T23:09:00.001-05:00

Your relationships are on fire, or at least, there is no way you can be bored by what is happening in the intimacy department, even if the news isn't good. You'll be enjoying a bit of high drama. Jupiter may be making you restless. "Will the grass ever be green enough?" is a question you keep asking yourself. Mercury continues to be retrograde; although you would like to move forward, you may find that you will be pulled back, to the place where you are shaping and creating your destiny

full moon.

2003-09-09T23:04:00.000-05:00

Why is it when it is a full moon, everyone acts crazy? It never fails. People are angrier, or more psychotic. They need more medicene, and guess who has to deal with it. MEEEEE. I swear, I think, if you go to the Doctor for anything, one of the standard questions would be "Do you work in a Nursing Home?" and if the answer is yes, you should have the option of having a psychotropic drug to deal with the stress.

Trivia

Military fact: one of the qualifications for working at Los Alamos during developing the A- Bomb was illiteracy. In order to work as a janitor or some menial job, you had to not know how to read for the authorities fear leaking of state secrets. if you knew how to read, you are out of a job.

Another Military fact: In ancient Sparta, secret codes were passed on a long strip of paper, that was wrapped around a rod or a stick. These sticks or rods were closely guarded, for only a message could be decoded using a rod of similar diameter. If the paper was wrapped around any old stick, in trying to decode the message, the results would be gibberish. (Shoot, I know that old trick from PBS Electric Company, a long time ago.)

Week of Aug. 25, 2003 by Astrocenter.com
The focus has really changed this week, as Jupiter has now moved into your opposite sign of Virgo. It joins Venus, Mercury, and the Sun to emphasize your partnerships and relationships. After all the excitement associated with your career, it now seems that the cosmos is directing your gaze to other matters. It is time to feel fulfilled and happy within your current relationship, or at least to find one that satisfies your desire for a perfect mate

Trivia

2003-08-24T23:41:00.000-05:00

I am bound and determined to educate people in a fun way. So the best way to do so, is the way of trivia. The trivia I got is from Isaac Asimov's Book of Facts.. It is always better to credit the author. Anyways.....
Until JFK was assassinated in 1963. It was not a federal felony to kill a President of the United States.
And in Liturature..... One of the most popular and important playwrights in the Elizabethan age was Thomas Watson. Not a single one of the Dramas exists today. Hmmmmm. I knew a Doug Watson.
In Biology..... A person's hair cannot turn white overnight by a sudden shock nor a frightening experience. not what so ever.

oh a typical Friday night

2003-08-22T23:03:00.000-05:00

So I am writing on this thing, because I've got nothing better to do. My son is watching "Hey Arnold, the Movie" right now. I just had some stew, that has been cooking in the crockpot all day long. Not bad. I have to work this weekend so I can't see my sweetie. Oh well, I hope that he enjoys this little vacation and will be taking pictures or visiting friends and family during the weekend. I hope he misses me, !(sob)
I have no idea what the proceding post is about. I have been musing on that all week. I am not an adventurous soul and as for the good things...... well I am getting some overtime this week, and I raised my voice in the scheduling.
You see, the person who did the schedule quit and the DON did the schedule. She however, put me down for one weekend off during the whole month, and nothing but one day off at a time. Looking at it, I thought she was trying to kill me. So I called her on it.
I told her, that I never gave her any trouble, and I needed 2 weekends off a month, because the N.H could afford it. I work Evening shift, and I have a son and I am dating and seeing my B/F on a regular basis. I needed that time off to spend with my son and B/f because I don't have regular hours like normal people.
In short, I got my 2 weekends off, (yeah!) I don't know what is going to happen October, Oh I know, VACATION!!!!

My Horoscope for this week

2003-08-19T22:45:00.000-05:00

Are you continuing to wind yourself around and around in spirals, as both Mars and Uranus continue their retrograde motion? You seem to be traveling deep within your own soul on a journey that is taking you to new levels, and helping you to understand where some of your deeper dreams have been leading you - slowly but surely. You have more chances this week to work with all the good things that are coming your way via your job. Develop your urge to be more adventurous in living your life.

oh, I am so tired

2003-08-17T23:01:00.000-05:00

I am so tired. I could just go to bed. Yet, I have to wait for the dishwasher to finish and get ready for bed. It has been a hectic day today. I found out that only one aide has been scheduled for tomorrow. I don't know how that is going to work out. I don't want to go to work tomorrow, yet, I won't get paid for sitting on my butt. I wish I could though. Anyways I have to go to work for no one else will do it.
Good things, our census is up for the time being. Maybe the "powers that be" will quit complaning.
I get to see my sweetie maybe for about 5 minutes. Going to Elk to get some peaches and give maybe 7 to K. That is as much as he wants and able to eat. I get to freeze the rest. Ummmmm. frozen peaches in the winter, can't wait.
I am going to to get my hair permed and cut Wendesday. Can't wait to look good. (I least I hope!)

Stuff.

2003-08-12T23:14:00.000-05:00

I got to see the Cowboy Bebop movie at my boyfriend's house over the weekend. I never realized that the show was so good. Now I have to see the show, which fortunately is currently showing on Cartoon Network. I must confess that I did see the show, but I was only 1/2 of an episode. It was hard to get a hold of the characters if you don't know the plot or the premise of the show. But now it is no problem.
I have a long work schedule ahead of me. It would be at least 2 weeks before I could even get out of the house. I have some days off but it is only one day off at a time. Becky, my relief, had to go on vacation. So, I have to work a little harder to make up for it. Granted, I am just complaining just a little bit. But only because it will cut in to my social life a little bit. Oh well responsibility sucks.
Just 2 more days until school starts........ YES YES YES!!!! I love my son, but even he gets on my nerves a little bit.

same ol same ol

2003-08-08T23:06:00.000-05:00

Same ol same ol
Going to Woodward tomorrow to get school supplies and clothes for Eric. This would take all day. Ah well, I have to be back by 5 pm for my mom has to go to work. Hopefully, that freezer gets here early in the morning so that we could go and get stuff done. I am looking forward to it. as it would get me out of the house at least for a little bit. I might get to the b/f house after all is said and done. It has been a whole week!

This is a really cool funny site!

Everybody! Everybody!

Everything is slowly getting fixed!

2003-08-05T23:21:00.000-05:00

Everything is slowly getting fixed! Got my part replaced on the sattlelite, a new freezer is coming in Friday or next Monday. Got to spend last weekend with the sweetie, very good visit. Now I am looking at options for replacing the toilet. The guy didn't come in to even look at it. Ah well, I would be a lot more angry if I paid money up front. Now I am kind of sort of looking at plumbers.
I am patiently waiting on the EIC check to come in. I expect to get it. There is no reason that I wouldn't get it. But alas, I have to wait because my SSN last two digits is in the lower range. I have to wait until at least 8/10 to know. If it comes in, Wally world, here I come!

Bob Hope

2003-08-03T21:56:00.000-05:00

Bob Hope was one of my favorite comedians. He had class, humor, and many other fine qualities. He never had any scandal in his personal life nor professional. Thanks for the memories of the Road movies with Bing Crosby, movies with Lucille Ball. Movies with just himself. Golf, Being with the presidents, Being the entertainment for G.I Joe for not one war, but 4, WWII, Korean, Vietnam and Persian Gulf. I am sure that if his health wasn’t so frail, he would have been overseas at Baghad entertaining the troops. I shall always remember those memories, of a great man, a great entertainer, and a wonderful personality.

If something will go wrong.......

2003-08-01T00:41:00.000-05:00

Hey everyone, if something will go wrong it will.

2. My new freezer quit. I just brought this thing in Febuary. I called the repair line. The earliest they would get here is next Tuesday. What the hell, I already threw out 2 trashbags of food. what is another 4 days.
3. We had a storm the other night, and we took in the cat. It escaped the bathroom and went in my room and bit my toes. Now that is a awakening!
4. Called my B/F Wedneday and found out that we cannot meet this weekend because he had to do some stuff at work. We will have wait for another week. Shoot. Oh well, I have to go through my son's clothes in the closet and figure out what he needs for school. It is starting in 3 weeks yes yes, yes! Still... SHOOT!!!!
5. This heat is killing my garden. At this rate, we won't have enough tomatoes to can up. just enough to eat.
6. I know, I know, I'm Bitching. But what the hey. that is what this is for isn't it?
