O Woe is Me

Well,,,i've spent hours today, dealing with Verizon about my bill,,,that has an overcharge of about 150.00.  First thing,,hold,,finally a voice says how can i help you?,, then more hold,, and more hold,,,goes on for over 2 hours.  By then my ear is numb, my shoulder aching,,,,and i'm still not thru.  They finally tell me it has been corrected and that amount taken off, but won't show up til JAN!!!!,,,which means,,my draft will still have the overcharges on it!  Hey wait a minute,,,i can't do that!!

Soo,,now i call the bank and they ask if they can call me back in a minute,,i say yes.  HA!!! My minute and their minutes just don't mean the same....  I finally call back and am told,,o, we were just fixing to call you,,,yeah sure.  Then they tell me there will be a 30.00 charge for canceling this draft just one time.  I tell them NO WAY. 

So,,back i go to Verizon,,and in the holding,,again,,,time,,i look on my online account and see where it says de-enroll,,,,hmmmmm.  I finally get a person again,,who keeps leaving me to ask my questions to someone else,,,so i start clicking this online choices...  Maybe,,,just maybe i've done it.  Gotten out of that draft coming up in mid Dec.  Someone back there somewhere did tell me they would send me a paper bill, which i will NOT pay that amount, but pay what i actually owe.  Let them use my credit THEY gave me to correct it.  O boy.  The tech that i called first,,said,,,he felt for me, cause they had messed his own personal account up, and it took ages to correct,,,lolololol.

Yall tc, don't mess with Verizon,,,and

It's COLD

It was showing 30, earlier.  Guess i need to get the covers out for the outside faucets, even tho i've never had one freeze.  Gonna be a fantastic day ,,,,

lol Just set my waffles on the table and J called, asking if i wanted the B/taco.  I'm back on my waffles for a while,,,the taco is good sometimes tho.

Hey BB, i'm so surprised you haven't made any comments on RVSue, about the slabs.... lollololol.  Do you miss going there?  O yeah,,,you're catching those big bass, lolol, chasing golf balls, riding that billy bike,,,etc..having so much more fun,,,

Sometimes,,my head feels so strange, funny, like woozy.  It was doing that yesterday and i checked my b/sugar, b/pressure,,all ok.  Just don't know what it is, but it goes away.  Brought it up cause it just had a touch happen again. 

J is doing so good, and it's been almost a month now.  Not having the spasms as much.  It's amazing, when you think about it,,how fast he's healing.  He's just about quit wearing that brace that doesn't fit right, rubs on the spine where it shouldn't.  The doc even said,,don't wear it... On about the same surgery back in 2000, that doc didn't believe in them,,told him he had him screwed together enough he didn't need one,,, (those were the ones taken out).  He is also 1 3/4" taller,,,

We went out to the park yesterday,,he finally has seen the attraction i have for it,,,and watched all the different birds.  The geese, some big black ducks, sea gulls, a lot of white cranes, and one blue one.  He loves it too,,now.   Have to give my Mom credit for my love of nature and all it's creatures.  When i was a kid ,,, was fascinated with red ants, and bees.

Well, i'm just rattling on here, so yall tc, and

Is it Monday?

Hmmm,,nope.  I went out to the park yesterday and waited for that front.  Sure enough,,it did cloud up, even thundered a little, and then the wind hit.  LOLOLOL,,had to move, those little oak tree leaves were like snow coming into my window.  It had been hot and still, til that wind hit.  I had done my little bit of walking before then, tho.  It did actually rain a little bit.  Not enough to measure,,,went by to the South and on to the West where they got good rains.  Didn't seem to bother those geese at all...

Haven't seen J since last Wed, but he called and is bringing a breakfast taco.  Sounded good today.  Mine are egg, bacon, potato, and cheese...His are made with chicken, onion, green pepper, cilantro, and are really good too, and filled so much he takes over half off and makes another one.

I got my Christmas shopping done over the weekend,,,lol,,,,Ordered them.  Got the three i buy for, the same thing.  An Admiral FitzRoy's storm glass.  Got this little catalog, called Bits and Pieces, and it has some of the neatest things in it.  A long time ago, i gave J this clock,,,had ball bearings that would roll down a chute each minute, then every hour, they would all fall and start over...,.,hahahahaha,,,Didn't take him long to move that thing out of his room,,,lolololol.  Never knew what happened to it,,just another thing that disappeared over the years.  WELL,,,for the first time since then,,there is one in this little catalog!!!  Gonna show him,,,when he gets here.  NOT gonna buy another one....

No plans for today, well, i will finish my book, don't have much and hated to put it down last nite.  I read during commercials,,lol.

Got the vcr set to record 2 movies, takes 1 each nite on weekends, so i'm ahead.  Got a good book to read,,,,got more little catalogs to go thru.  Kinda know what i'm buying for mine tho.  Will take a trip to Walmart. 

If you don't see me, don't worry, just nothing to put on here.  My life is so boring right now.

Got That New Faucet

Instead of blogging today, the guy came and put in my new faucet.  Well, no problem doing that part,,was getting the old one out!   It was done when i bought this house, maybe 12? years ago, and everything was new at that time.  But squeezed inside under it, then the tight place up under it,,made for a lot of slow work,, Was a snap putting the new one on....  Took him maybe 2 hours. 

Late yesterday my stomach started feeling yuck,,,then,,the diarrhea hit.  Have no idea where that came from.  I didn't eat supper, and then later i ate some peanut butter  crackers.  It's ok today.  N told me that G wasn't feeling good either and had gone to bed yesterday,,,now, for him, that is unusual.

Ok gonna eat my oatmeal now,,so yall tc, and

What a Day

Yep, 3 tables filled totally up with food, and another with desserts.  Had those BIG Styrofoam plates to eat on too.  With this many people, it's not formal.  It's buffet style.  I didn't even get a small sample of half the stuff.  I hated it that i got so full, i couldn't,...hahahaha.  I did bring home a small plate of small cuts of pies, later.  Pecan, choc, buttermilk, cheesecake.  Ate a little of that for supper,,,  My dotter had said if there was no ham, she was taking a ham sandwich,,,lolololol. But there was.  Turkey and ham, with so many side dishes, no way to get a taste of them all.

Came home and napped,,,lololol,,,went back later for poker.  The sheriff showed up to play too.  His stepson is married to my niece, and he nearly always comes over to play poker.  Her 3 kids have been like his own grandkids always.  I won a little,,,lol.  We just play nickel, dime, quarter.   Just for fun.  When we play moon, we used to play quarter loss, quarter hickey.  One day, bro B said,,let's do dollar, dollar,,and we all said OK,,,hahahahaha,,he didn't think anybody would agree.  Heck, used to play at the bar and they always said i won all their money,,, But when i went in the door, they would holler,,,come on!!! Need a player...

One time there was a new man playing at a table with 2 others, and i went over there and asked if i could join them,,2 said Yeahhh.  The new one frowned, scowled,,didn't like it...Til i set some moon bids,,Later he slid to a stop one day, just to tell my sis,,I could sure play moon!  He didn't know we ALL had all our life,,,hahahahaha.  I didn't like to play with women either,,,hehehehe,,,they almost always had their minds on other things,,wouldn't stay with the game.

Don't know what's going on, but the net is so slow today, taking forever to do anything.  And it's not my signal! 

Hope you all had a great day, yesterday,,,tc and

Thanksgiving,,2012

I'm still sitting here, have been reading blogs,,,lololol.  But all i have to do is get dressed, and it's 9 AM.  Even have the dishes done.

I'm making my 2 waffles even tho we eat at noon. 

I think this parade is just no good any more.  It's all balloons!  Guess no one does floats any more.  So i turned it off....

J had a terrible muscle spasm yesterday when he woke up from a nap, what he calls lock up.  There didn't seem to be anything we could do.  He had missed his meds by an hour.  Slept thru it.  He just had to let them wear off.  Might be 2 months of this, before those muscles and ligaments heal.

He was headed home later to make his famous pecan pies...  Said he's spent about 20.00 on pecans for 2, and could have bought them for 4.99 each.

Well, too early for any news around here, but i do have LOTS to be thankful for.  So yall tc, and
