2 more will make my 10000th visitor.
And to let all of you know, i had a wonderful! Christmas. Lots and lots of people, lots and lots more of food. Lots and lots of poker playing later, had to stay warm,, Did sit out for a while by bro's fire pit. Some of the little ones were only too glad to keep it going. When i came dragging my rear home last nite, i was worn out. To start with, that niece and her family came by about 9:30 and stayed a while, soooo enjoy them.
Did i tell you? I cooked 5 lbs of potatoes, so i had a great big bowl to carry. The lid didn't work good, so i had to be so careful not to drop them. Could see myself doing that the whole way over there. lolol,,but,,,didn't. There were 2 turkeys, with 2 huge pans of dressing, a ham, then so many fixings, i don't think i could remember all of them. I couldn't eat any more, after i had eaten lunch, so i brought home a small plate for today. O yeah,,,lots and lots of sweets,,,
Ok, thru with that. Getting hungry now. For waffles,,,hahahaha. Need a regular day here,,,My dotter gave me a memory foam pillow, but,,i can not sleep on it. About 2:30 AM i got up and changed it back. Hope i can take it back, because that was on my list of things i wanted. She had asked me to do that, and after thinking about it, i did. Beats getting useless stuff, u know.
Does that BB like to keep you in suspense ,,,or does he not?,,, Hey boy, get your azz back here, and explain! Too early for riddles,,,lololol.
Ok,,gotta make a move,,might get dressed,,well, out of this robe,,lol. Waffles were darned good.

Had to Come Back and Name This,,,
Just heard the weatherman say,, if,,could,,maybe, as usual. I don't listen any more.
Gosh, someone was talking about being alone and dying, and no one finding your body for days, and to me, that's not the problem. You're dead, YOU DON"T CARE anymore. BUT, if you have had to lay there for hours, days, etc, then THAT"S BAD. I almost had that happen to me. If i hadn't called 911 when i did, and if they hadn't gotten me to the hospital when they did, i wouldn't be here. Was all in the timing. They got me into the ER, sitting on the table looking at the doc, when i quit breathing. Was out for 3 days. Flown to Austin, stayed a week. BUT, no one knew where i was!!! I became a missing person the next day! Late the next day, my g/dotter came by, found everything not right, and called everybody else. They looked, asked, hunted everywhere, i'm just gone. One picked my phone up and hit redial, found out the last number had been 911. Soooo, they called the hospital, was told no, i wasn't there, and had not been a patient there either. WELL,,passing thru the ER, you're not. Someone finally told my sis that i had been flown out the morning before. I didn't know you could have pneumonia without a cough or a fever, but you can. You just feel bad, and if you wake up and can't walk, CALL 911!!! This man that put in my front doors, said he had that happen one time. They called his "walking pneumonia" but why he didn't know, he couldn't walk! lolol. I just had it again, a couple of months ago. From this lapband making me inhale stuff during my sleep.
Then,,when i was still working in Home Health Care, i went to a lady's house 2 blocks from me, and found her on the floor in her bathroom, been there at least 2 days, maybe 3. And her son who was the patient, had been in the chair the same. He was unable to walk without help. Another son lived in the next house up the street, had to have seen her lite on for days, and never stopped and checked. Her newspapers were laying out there too. She had to stay in the hospital for about 2 weeks, and then the younger son and her were put in a nursing home in another town, where one of her dotters worked. It was time, she was getting really bad with altzheimers.
I would love to have one of the necklaces, but don't want to spend the monthly fee. I try to keep my cell phone handy. My family had good intentions for a while, but it goes away. Gosh, it's been 3 1/2 years,,and o yeah, that's when i quit smoking...lololol. The cough was gone almost instantly. Amazing. And i got my voice back. As far as my lungs are concerned, i can't tell any difference from having the copd, the effects of, i mean. I use just Spiriva,,,and that's a once a day thing. No oxygen, no breathing machines, nothing else. If i walk, it's my back that makes me sit down, not my breathing.
Ok, nuff said.
Here i am, saying i'm ready for Christmas, and you watch, right at the last minute, something will pop up. Gonna cook my potatos tomorrow, they will just get better, sitting.
OMG, just made those Firecrackers, and the bag leaked! A Ziploc at that. What a mess. Did manage to get them into another one, and turn them in a safer place, like ,, the sink. lolololol. That bag wouldn't seal, don't know if it's the oil, or what. Turned it upside down here on the table, and,,,Big puddle of oil!!! Managed to catch it before it got off tho. Geez! I mixed saltine with ritz, 2 columns each. Looking at all those crackers thot HOW will they all fit??,,,But, they did. Bag's full, right up to the zipper,,,lololol. Wondering when to try them. Guess they're ready, huh. Used OLD red pepper flakes,,hahahaha,,see if they get out of date. I have some coarse ground black ,,,,if they are. Thot i had some of those little packets from the Pizza Hut, but,,NOOO,,,when i cleaned out that drawer they got tossed, along with all the ketchup, lemon juice,,,etc. Think that's a reason to save it all?,,,Might need it some day,,hahaha, like i just did? Too bad i'm a tosser, not a keeper.
UMMM yeahh they are good!, and,,the red pepper is HOT. It was one of HJ's recipes. Thx, HJ.

A Day in History
Had a mouth dropping experience this morning. Last Sunday i had heard about someone out on E71 needing EMS, seemed to have had a heart attack while driving. He did, and didn't make it, but that's not what i'm talking about. He was coming here to visit the man who as a policeman 45 years ago, was the one who killed Charles Whitman. Houston McCoy. I never knew he had moved here. When Whitman got on the UT Tower and started shooting people, i remember watching it on TV, staying glued most of the rest of the day. Horrified! Watching EMS trying to save some of the ones shot, putting their own lives in danger, being shot at too. The one thing that impressed me was people driving by, stopped and got out with their own guns, and starting shooting at Whitman too. This is Texas, people carry guns. Even now. My druggist had been one who had to find shelter just walking down the street.

In 2006 i think, one of the tv stations had shown that old footage, and still had the reporter working for them. We couldn't imagine anyone doing something like this. Hamilton's story is welllll worth the read. His was a short essay about that, and there were others sent in, back in 2006, the actual 40 year anniversity.
It's a good thing my nephew didn't ever call me back about that tablet,,,lol, i might have bought it. Need to get thru 2 or 3 months of these extra expenses before i do something like that. Got house insurance and taxes, plus Christmas, which i really didn't spend a lot on, but now isn't a good time, ya know what i mean? Put myself in this hard place, replacing those 2 front doors, but oooo, how i do love em. Don't regret it one bit.
Got a load of laundry done, about all i'm doing today. Just remembered, my neice said they were coming down here today. Don't know when i'll see them, tho.

PS,,DD, In windows 7, it used windows live for a lot of things, it's what i use for email, photos, movie making, even blogging sometimes. You might have to DL it, but i really thot it came with it.

Just Flat Forgot
Yep, i did. Just totally forgot to do this today, til i was on the way to Kingsland HEB, grocery shopping. Didn't need much, but,,,one of those things,,pays to go there, rather than do it here. Filled my car up, which i do when it gets down to 1/2 a tank, that way i can always get in and go. When i got back, just had 3 bags, nothing heavy, and headed in, and oops, dropped one bag,,,right on my walk. lololol,,,o yeah, the one with the eggs. Thot i got by with just breaking one, but on closer look, there were 3. Put them in a bowl and covered them, will use them first. That store was packed! I had to LMAO when i turned up one aisle, and there were 2 birds eating bird seed on the floor..hahahaha. They knew where to find it! I know they fly in the doors, and can't get out, but still, it was neat. I told a little girl and she got all excited, and wanted to go look, even tho they were in the check out. She'll look from now on. lololol. Only thing i didn't find were light bulbs, and was no problem. I'm not out, but just have one more left. The little curly ones,,60W. My son said he hates them, takes too long to get bright, so he was stocking up on the others, thinking they weren't gonna make em any more, then,,,,a couple of days ago, they changed their minds, now they're NOT.
Ok,,that's it,,,folks,,wondered how i had so much time earlier. hahahaha,,,

Up to the Future,,
Hey, i made it today!..Don't know how i can just ,,well,,kinda dawdle so long.. Lots of blogs to read, and comment on. Think it was Gypsy talking about rodents, reminded me of how i got rid of this whole hill of em. hahahaha. Read my 6-26 blog, it explains.
My son put a coil on my car late yesterday, when i had finally been able to catch up with him. Runs great, no miss, no gas smell, which he had explained how it did it. Something about how when it misfired, it kicked gas back in something, into tail pipe, and hence the smell. Don't know if it needs the plugs, wires or not, i'll find out later.
DD finally got a new computer!!! lol. Can't believe he's been using Vista all this time. Way back, right when Vista first came out, i had to buy a new computer, (new about as much as repair), and the only choice i had AT THAT TIME, was Vista. I hated it!! Nothing was compatible, NOTHING. Not even my printer! Had to get new software from the HP company (online didn't work, left out a step). Everything had to be redone to work with Vista!!!, Even my mouse!,,Worst thing they ever did. Had to spend hours on the phone with a Dell rep to even get it going at all. THEN, like 6 weeks later, they put the XP back on the market. Was too late for me, i had to live with that DAM Vista til Windows 7 came out, which i think i might have been the first one to get it. hahahaha,,,i downloaded that and finally got rid of Vista. I have loved the win 7 since i got it. It's on both desk and laptop. So i know DD will too, and wonder how he waited so long.
I look at a site, http://www.dealnews.com/ and yesterday it had this little tablet looking thing, (which i don't know anything about),,,marked down to $149. from $200 and free delivery. I just might have gotten it if my nephew had called me back to tell me exactly what it was. It's not on there today, might have sold out at that price. Wasn't a refurb either. I know it had Google Android in it, whatever that is, lol. Did ebooks. Wasn't Kindle or Nook. O well, might see it again. I'm lost on those things. Like DD, need to get with the future,,,here. lol. It WAS a tablet. If i figure it out, i'll let you know.
Why does my skin, neck area, turn jewelry black? The only thing it won't turn, is gold. It started doing this about 2 years ago, and i still don't know why. Even sterling silver turns black. I put on a necklace a few days ago, and this morning noticed it had started turning black. Supposed to be SS. I can wear rings, earrings, and all, and they're ok. Just the neck area.
Ok, enough ramblings,,yall tc, and
