Forgot to Title This,,,

Still lmao about rvsue,,in denial.  Guess it's ok to break her own rules, just,,,NOBODY else better do it and pull a surprise visit with HER. hahahahah,,,If i were ever to see her, i would make darn sure i broke her rules, and intrude on her to say howdy.  But that's just the kind of person i am,,don't EVER tell me what i SHOULD do,,,lololol.  Or worse, what i should NOT do.

I soo enjoyed the bar b q last nite,,but came home by 9;45.  It was about 20 miles away, on a little narrow 2 lane, so i didn't want to get too tired, not able to see good.  I do have good nite vision, but when i start shutting down,,,don't wanna be driving.  We all laughed til we hurt.  I was the only senior,,,lol, but like i said, these kids were around my house a lot back when.  I told the hosts, that as a mom i was so honored to be there.  The host was my son's best friend thru hi school, and was around most of the time.  Together they look like mutt n jeff.  He's like 6-4, 250, son 5-10, 120. lololol.  One time i went to the grocery store on Sat. morning, and his mom was there and asked how my son was.  I told her he was still sleeping, so i assumed ok.  Then,,she told me they had a fight the nite before!  And i'm thinking OMG,, son might be hurt bad.  Found out later, son J had run from him all nite trying NOT to fight, but when he grabbed him by the shirt collar and ripped it,,he did one of his spinning hits right on the nose, knocked him out cold, thot he killed him,  Finally got him up and in the car, took him home, put him to bed.  Next morning first thing, went to check on him.  J practiced every day on a punching bag, and size sure didn't matter.  Speed and muscles did.  lololol.  In all the fights he was in, he was never hit.  His friends liked to watch him and would instigate one if they could.  Anyway, sure was great last nite.

BB was talking about jumping under a fence one time, well,,,i did too.  I had gone out to get a cow for my grandma to milk, and she's walking right along the trail, me behind,,,thinking i was doing it,,,and all of a sudden that darn thang just stopped!  Turned around and looked at me,,thot hey, wth am i doing?,,put her head down and charged,, She had long horns too,,,, I was young and fast, and that fence wasn't too far away, sooo,,i sure didn't take time to crawl thru it or over it,,i went down under it!  Barely made it too.  Sure never volunteered to do that again.  Of course, they all laughed about it, thot it was real funny,  but i never trusted a cow again!  Failed to see the humor in that situation.  I coulda been ,,,well, gored anyway.  lololol.  My bros were the ones that tried to ride the calves.  Never did much good at that either.

All my valentine flowers are gone, just threw the last away.  Keep looking toward that spot. lolol.

That's all folks,,tc and

Phone Calls at 7:30AM????

My phone rang at 7;30 am today,,and know what i did?,,i just let it ring, went back to sleep.  lololol,  Why do people assume just cause you;re old, you get up early?  It was the lady friend on the city council and i talked to her later.  No big deal.  She rewrote my letters, and my bro and i have to decide if we like her version or mine.  One is ok, but i don't like the other one.   She's putting a lot of time on this, so i really really do appreciate it.  G is gonna come by later today and we will get it done and go from there.

I'm going out to the lake later with my son and gf, for a bar b q.  I can't stay late any more, so i'll be home by 10,,my bed time,,lololol.  About 9 i start shutting down, and can't make it much longer.  Do yall do that?

Had to laugh when i read rvsue today,,,hahahaha,,after all of her talk about visitors, and she goes marching in on some new campers...lmaooooo.....Uninvited at that!   I'll probably catch a lot of flak about saying this too, but just BRING IT ON.

I looked and looked for little Hop a Long at the park yesterday, but never saw him, but that doesn't mean much.  Even with the big group on the bank there were always a few still in the water.  The geese did show up, hadn't seen them for a couple of days.  I love it when they all, 13, come flying over squawking, and land in the river.

I didn't walk hardly any tho, too windy and cold.  Like i said before, it sometimes helps to skip a day.

I got this FANTASTIC email from my cousin about our cars back in the 50s and 60s, forwarded it to some of yall.  I know i'll watch it again, and save for future viewings..  Let me know if you liked it too,.

Wow,,noon already.  One more thing tho,  yesterday none of my games would work. Not even the free cell.  I rebooted a couple of times, nothing helped.  So strange.  Today they're fine.  I like www.onlinebandit.com the best.  You play with real people.  I've always loved games and played domino games, and card games all my life.  I was in a bridge club, but have let that go.  Need to get back into it.  Anyway, any of you that like games, that's a good site.  I play ludo and painted yatzy, but there's others too.  Ludo is like an old game we had, wahoo.

Ok,,time to git,,yall tc and

My bro G and i met this morning with our city council friend here, and went over what we're going to do and say at the council meeting on 3-5, so,,,no post today.

BEST Mouse Trap EVER

Someone was talking about storing dog food or bird seed in buckets, or something like that, and reminded me of using a 5 gal bucket to store my bird seed.  Kept the lid on it til i got down to about 2 inches left.  Had it in my store room.  Went out there one day to get something and when i opened that door, heard this strange sound, and of course, i'm thinking RATTLESNAKE!  So,,very slowly, i go in and it's coming from that bucket.  hmmmm,,,Get close enough to look, and WOW, about 20 mice scrabbling around down in there.  llololol.  Now, what do i do?  Got 2 cats around somewhere.  So,, here i go, carrying that bucket calling those cats.  And here they come,,,BUT,,that bucket sound scares them to death.  hahahaha.  I finally get one to look in, and i have it leaning over a little, and she figures it out real quick.  MICE.  She grabs a few, as many as she can, and then i go to the other one.  He does the same thing,,but in the process of grabbing mice with all feet, mouth, etc, he lets 1 or 2 get away.  It's way out in the yard, so i just let it go.  The other one lets one get away, playing with it.  They finally finish those off, and i give them MORE.,  This takes a while to finish off all those mice, but we finally get it done.  I set the bucket back and next day,,,same thing. hahahaha,,, i open the door, hear the noise, and call one of the guys working on the house,,and he thinks i found a snake too, so he's kinda leary of looking.  lololol,,Then he couldn't believe it.   This time, there's about 15 in the bucket.  The cats know what i have now, so here they come when they hear it and see that bucket.  This went on for days, and i ended up catching about 50.  The last 2 were babies, and it was HARD to let the cats have em, but i did.  That bucket is still out there, and sometimes there is 1 or 2 dead ones in it.  Like i said, best mouse trap ever!  I single-handed, cleared out mice from this hill.  lololol.

Our river has been up a few feet, but it, nor the others, seem to help the lakes levels. Buchanan is still about 30 feet low, but that's from the fullest.  From normal, maybe 24 feet down.  Did read that the El Nina? would be leaving so we would have more of a normal summer....lol,, (rare we get rain here).  But i've seen our river get on a huge rise in June.  Gosh, i think we got a hundred year rise a few years ago, in June.  I see bluebonnets everywhere so there will be lots of wild flowers this year.  We turn blue,, then red,,,then yellow.  Everywhere you can see, some years.  I WILL get pics.

Ok folks,,on to other things, but yall tc, and

Short n NOT Sweet

Internet went off again right after i published my post yesterday, and just a bit ago got fixed.  Wouldn't you know, when the tech showed up, it had just started working!!!?  Then i couldn't connect to the laptop, and got online chat, (never again) and he put me thru circles for about an hour, then the tech showed back up, took 2 minutes to fix.  He turned my router over, and it disconnected somehow just touching it.  Now i know where to look.  It's the new one i got about a week ago.  Not sure it's a good one.  Guess i'll wait and see.

Jojo, you are still using that double word verification, so i'm commenting here.  Where is this place you're going from where you are now?  How long will you stay?

Had to take one of my blogs i follow,,off.  Can't believe they were asking for donations on it for something,,and that was all it was.  Go stand on a street corner. Mr Nimble,,just don't do that kind of thing.  Also, all the political ones are going too.!!!  Why do people think they can talk you into changing your beliefs to theirs and start preaching about it???  Yep, gonna clean em up.  No donations, no politics, and NO religion.!! Got that??  hahahaha and i mean it.  Sure glad there's still the GOOD ones.

Here it is, noon, so i'd better get this published, quit my ranting, and eat my lunch.  Yall tc and

Blogger Trouble, Again?

 

These were my valentine flowers, almost gone  now.  Camera was in the car, and I just never brought it in til yesterday.  The ones on the right were white carnations dyed by my son into rainbow colors.   They also gave me a rainbow colored whirligig for outside.  The ones on the left were from my dotter.  Wish they showed up better here, but,,,I’m just not good with a camera.  Never cared to be, so,,this is what you get.  lol.

This was a different duck, and was the only one I saw.

Turtles sunbathing, til the gull landed.  Just one stayed and stared at it.  The others are circling around the rock.  There were lots of them in the water.

Ok, what’s going on with blogger now???  The blogs on my follow list aren’t showing the right time posted.  This has been going on for a couple of days now, driving me nuts,,,nuttier,,,anyway,,,lol.   For instance, it’s 10 am here, and HJs blog on top of list showing it was posted 9 hours ago.  At 1 am???  Is anybody else having this problem?  I did cure the email notification thang, by using the embedded comments.  And that gave me the reply at the bottom of those, so all’s good on that part.

My son came by last nite with some paperwork he wanted me to interpret for him, so I just went thru it and made a summery.  Where it took SS 5 pages to say something, I had a short list of those.  He finally got his disability which I couldn’t believe he was turned down the first time!  With all his spine doctors helping him, and stacks of paperwork verifying this since he was about 22 years old,,it took 2 times.  Now he can get that MRI his doc wants to do, and go from there.  The spinal block shots just last so long.  There’s a calcium deposit growing into his spine and pinching on the nerves.  It can put him flat sometimes.  All these 24 or so years, he’s had to pay out of his own pocket. (For 5 spinal surgeries)  He is limited on what he can do now, like sit or ride.   It was his choice not to do this until now.  This has happened all up and down his spine.  Has a lot of fusions,,metal plates.  Can’t pass inspections with those wands…lol.  Has to show his back and front. 

My walking is getting a tiny bit better.  Still a force to do it, but,,,,HAVE to.  The weather helps, makes me want to get out and do something.  I look at my yard, and used to have so pretty a one, but now,,,just survivors there.  Can’t get out and take care of it any more.  I noticed my pond is almost full of rain water, so I need to get some fish in there, for the mosquito larvae.  Maybe just some minnows this time because it will dry up in the summer.  Not gonna buy goldfish any more.  (bought them at a bait shop)

Ok,,gonna make a move,,,so yall tc, and

Gotta Walk Slow,,,hahahahaha

Jojo is talking about TV,,lol.  I too love the British comedies, but couldn't find them last nite.  And even here, in the boonies, i get a lot of channels with my outside antenna, better pic than HD too.  Most of the shows i watch are on those.  One tv is on the antenna, other 2 on cable.  If you watch shows on the puter, you get to miss the commercials,,,woohooo,,,maybe 1 or 2 15 second ones.  I've had to do that when i miss one i thot i just had to see, so i watch it later on the puter.  Tonite is full of stuff, gonna have to record The Voice to watch 4 others.  And i like the new one so far,,Smash.

I'm still LMAOOOOO about DDs post!!!  Gotta walk slow to remember what i'm doing.  OMG,,,hahahahahaha.  Tears,,,,DD,,that's the bestest i've EVER heard!  If i try it and it works,,i will apologize,,hahahahaha.  Wonder if it will make me remember today is a holiday.

Just heard the wind pick up, not gonna do much tho.  Yesterday was so nice, i even walked a bit further than i had been doing.  OOO yeah,,need to get my pedometer out,,right now!  Done, and of course, has a dead battery.  NP, get one later.

Ok,,all i've got for today, going to games,,,yall tc, and
