Weather?

Hey yall, this is TEXAS!!  Subject to change in the blink of an eye.  And never pay attention to those weathermen.

Started with my neti pot this morning,,,got full fledged sinus right now.  Even took an allergy pill.  Woke up during the nite with my nose running on one side, my eye watering,,one of em,,lol, and even my ear.  Time to get with the plan.  Practice what I preach,,,lol.  My bed is so high, i'm not able to lay off it with my head to the floor,,,would do a somersault,,,hahahahaha.  I have to use a little 3" board step to get on it.

For some reason,,i got up today and it was Monday.  When I went to take my daily morning pills out of the pill box,, I thot, OMG,, I totally missed Sunday!  Then I got to investigating,,(took a while) but I did find it is Sunday.....

Ok, just did my 2nd neti pot thing.  WOW it burns,, the first times.  Guess it's pretty raw up in there, huh?

Those pelicans are still here.  J said he counted 82 here in town a couple of days ago.  Guess they like it here, must be plenty of food for them.  I hope they will come back every year,,,at least I guess they will migrate.

Not much going on, so yall tc, and

Flu? Pneumonia?

Wasted a lot of time doing this, and poof,,,it's gone.

I keep seeing flu and pneumonia talk, and this morning I read that there are 2 going around, A and B.  The flu shot takes care of the A almost totally, but only 69 or so % of the B.  So i'm still being cautious when i'm out, using a lot of purel.

I took the pneumonia vaccine 6 years ago, then started having it,,,hahahaha.  Never had it in my life, and told the doc that.  That's when he took me off Advair for my COPD,, can cause pneumonia.  I had some kind of it, with no fever and no cough, so how do you know when you're getting it?  I asked that, and the only thing I can come up with, is,,, when I feel really really bad,,,go to the doc!  That's the one I had that nearly got me.  And when I had that,,,that's when I quit smoking.

I took J to F'burg yesterday for his 2 1/2 month check up.  He's having problems, and the doc decided to put him on some physical therapy for a few weeks, starting in 2 weeks.  Then the cold wet weather doesn't help.  Plus he's having sinus problems bad too.  Won't use my neti pot even tho I told him how much it has helped my g/dotter.  She's sure a believer.  Also, read this in a yoga book a long time ago.  Turn your head upside down, I laid across a bed and hung my head off, and drain those sinuses.  You won't believe how much stuff comes out!  Have a lot of Kleenex or something,,,lololol.  Stay upside down for 10 minutes, and it might make you nauseated the first time, but do this once a day for 2,,,maybe 3.  NO more sinus problems.

Some kind of new sticker thing showed up in our yards  a few years ago, and they dry out and fill up the bottom of your shoes if you walk on them.   Js shoes keep bringing them in and i'm trying to get them vacuumed out today.  I've told him to shed the shoes at the door.  He usually does but one day is all it takes.  These things are horrible.  Bro B and SIL have fits with them.  With all those boys coming in and out, she has gotten rid of a lot of carpeted rooms.  They are little round burrs, until they dry out, then those burrs break up into zillions of stickers.  They're flat on the ground, and the plant is just a few inches high.  Don't know what would get rid of them.

We went to the best steak place in the world yesterday, and brought home one order and divided it.  Was plenty.  It's the Barvarian Restaurant there.  It's actually German food.  But those steaks are out of the world good.  They are priced that way too,,lol, don't know what it was cause he paid for all of it.  Way back, the one I ordered was about 25.00.  I get the german fries with mine, he got the baked potato.  Then a big salad, and soup come with it.  I still have the soup,,yummmm.  The only bread you get is black. 

Think I've done my do for today, so yall tc, and

Rules of the House

 

If you sleep on it… make it up

If you wear it… hang it up

If you drop it… pick it up

If you eat out of it… wash it

If you spill it… wipe it up

If you turn it on… turn it off

If you open it… close it

If you move it… put it back

If you break it… repair it

If you empty it… fill it up

If it rings… answer it

If it howls… feed it

If it cries… love it

These are rules we grew up with, and then so did my kids.  Even had a group of boys go out my front door one time, and the last one out, left the door open, and one of the others, friend of my sons, turned around and came back and shut it, and never even realized he did,, he had to do the rules too.,,,,lolololol.  Mine told their company,, take your plate, glass, and stuff to the kitchen, or Mom will make you clean the whole table.  They learn realll fast,,,lol.

J went off to pick up sandwiches, and guess he’s not coming back!  I knew I should have done it. 

Called, said in a minute,,we’ll see.

Internet Out Today

Had to spend hours today, getting my internet working again,,,got the desk top going but the laptop wouldn't connect, sooooooo,,,,another call back.  O well, yall know the drill.  The desk top is so slow, compared to the laptop.

I keep seeing all this stuff about the flu. and I'm so glad I took the shot.  I always take it as soon as it's here, because it takes 3 weeks to take effect.

I haven't felt good today, been short winded.  The high humidity does that to me.  Then all the stuff with the internet,,,

I've been eating mostly at home lately.  And tonite, it's one of the spaghetti entrees in the freezer.  Sounded pretty good.  Surprise surprise,,,, it's meatloaf!  O well that'll do.

OOO yeah!!! THE RAIN....  lololol... In my gage is a bit over 2 1/2".  I heard it raining hard every time I was up during the nite, until after 3 or so, then more lite, but still raining, after that.  I was going to look on the LCRA map but haven't yet. 

The pelicans are still out at the park, at least a small amount of them, sitting on that rock, but I think the others are just on down out of sight.  Maybe they'll come here to winter every year now!  They seem to like it.

Well, since it's my supper time, yall tc, and

Just a Little Bit

Like everybody, I guess, nothing going on,,,seems nothing to say.  The pelicans are still at the park, which I find so amazing. 

Hadn't heard from J all morning, finally called, and he's still having bad trouble.  This cold has really hurt him, and he's not getting sleep cause of the pain.  Then now he said there's no water out there.  So he's coming here.  His appointment is Fri. morning, so he'll be able to find out more of what's going on.  I told him to write all his questions down so he won't miss any... I have to.

I know the doc has told him it'll be about 4 months with these spasms, and it's been 2 1/2.  But they are severe and his feet lose feeling between the med  he takes for it.

Well, that's it,,,not much more than nothing.   So, tc,  and

Couldn’t Believe My Eyes

 

I got out to the park a couple of days ago, and saw this all white rock, and not one turtle on it.  I have never seen these pelicans here before.  Just while I was sitting there watching them more groups kept flying in and landing up the river from these.  Too far for my camera, but had to be between 60-80 by the time I quit seeing them coming.  After a while most of them flew on down to the dam, and landed just below it.  WOW! 

I went back yesterday and they were still there.  Like I’ve always said, you never know what you’ll see in this river.  Bro B said he was walking down the road from his house, which is in a pasture, and it was night time a few weeks ago, and he heard this noise that put the hair up on his neck,,and he went home!  Said it sounded like some kind of big cat.  The house is the last one in the city limits, and just 1/2 block from the river.  And yeah, we know there are such things around…N sees them regularly.

My dotter here in town, blocks from me, has 2 great horned owls there a lot.  There’s a huge creek by her and it’s been left in the wild, all grown up.  One just sat there in the top of a tree and watched me the other day.  I hear them from the river, over the hill from me.

We raised one one time.  Went home one nite and he was walking around on the street, under a street lite, eating crickets…lololol.  Most fascinating thing we ever raised.

Well, folks,,that’s it. Yall tc, and

When I took my friend S some chili, she insisted I take some turkey and dressing, black eyed peas, and some kind of cabbage stuff.  Loved the trade.  Had that for supper, so I still have most of my pot of chili.  Cmon, DD,,, lol.

That's it, yall, so tc, and
