Did u see my updated blog list?,,,,Went into another place, settings, and that let me change them.
DD, I've lived here since i was 6, (sooo many years,,,lololol) and can't imagine not having scenery to look at. Hills, rocks, animals, etc. One time, i rode with my teen son, my younger son, and my bro B to a family reunion. He was 16 or 17, and had a trans am. He had told me, Mom, i play my music LOUD, and i told him GOOD, liked it like that. So,,,here we went, and didn't even get out of the city limits here, til he was turning that music down. I never said a word. We were gonna be there thru the week end, and come back on Monday. Sooo,,,we get up on Monday, and i told them to get packed, let's get on the road. OOO NOOO, want to stay one more day!!! (didn't find out til a few years ago, why, had to do with girls). I finally got them to load up, after 30 minutes of all this fussing and fighting. We got in the car, and started off, didn't even get out of Paris TX city limits, and all i heard was,,,CAN"T wait to get back, see some mountains, rocks, cactus!!!! That's why u never listen to kids. lmaooo. The girl story,,,was my son setting a record on how many dates he could set up in one nite. OMG Don't remember the count, but it was a LOT. He wanted to break the one the nite before, by doing it again the next nite. It's just a good thing u DON"T know all the things ur kids do. Some of the ones i hear now, i don't wanna!!! Of course, my bro B, was just 4 years older and always encouraged him.
DD, a lot of us are worried about wells too. With our river drying up,,the wells will eventually, too. My sis is being frugal with hers. Even our golf course has started using water recycled from the sewer system. I think the court house is too. Oh yeah, that old court house in ur pics, is beautiful.
River flow: 36-25-6
That pie is calling,,,yall HAGD

My Instant Cooking
I have updated the blogs i follow, and on the page u use to do that, it shows the correct ones. BUT, on the public one u see, it's still like it was. Just really get disgusted with blogger a lot. And, DD, keep the pics coming.
River flow: J=38 M=22 L=6
Staying in, and will, as long as this heat is this. lololol,,,All of August and maybe Sept. Doing what i have to do, but staying cool. At my age, the weeks fly, so it won't be long. hahahaha
Kinda been cleaning out my freezer. Using the older things, like a pie crust today. Just had 1 left, so i'm making a pineapple pie with vanilla jello ss instant pudding and a can of pineapple. Had left over cool whip too, so there!,,,Got my pie. YUMMMMM Got my last package of bacon out too. Don't think i will be able to eat my left over rib eye, tho. Jude will like it. Can't chew beef enough. My friend Sue, said she chews all the good outa it, then spits it out. LOLOLOL
Paid my utility and credit card bills, yesterday. Found out i would get my ss check. My utility was 170.00, and that is electric, water, trash, sewer. Everything, on one. Before this month, my sewer would be higher than my electric. That's how much i can economize. With my parents growing up thru the 30s depression, we were raised that way. I cool the front part of my house during the day, then turn the 2 window units off, and use the one in the back thru the nite. I also put reflecting film on all my windows, and have since the 80s. No heat comes thru. Nor goes out in the winter. I do the same with heat. But, don't heat my bedroom. I like a cold BR. I also turn my hot water heater off, (have breaker switches right there) and right now, the cold water tap is almost too hot to use. Otherwise, i will turn it on just long enough to heat the water, then turn it back off. It's a fairly new one, about 3 years old, and 30 gal. So it holds the hot water for 2 days, in the winter. See?,,,I do know how. lolololol I don't use much anyway, so why heat it all the time? I wash and dry clothes about every 8 or 9 days, a full load. Used to hang them out, but don't do that now. I loved the smell. One lady i worked with in home health, taught me a lot. I had never thot about the hot water heater. Then, i figured out some of the other. Have i helped anybody? lololol
Just saw a man playing a 27 string guitar on the news. Plans on making a 34 one. wooo. Sounds complicated.
Friend Sue just called, told me to bring a bowl, come get pot roast and home made rolls!!!,,,Broke a record getting the 3 blocks to her house. hahahahah Told her i had the pineapple pie, some for her too, and her dotter will be by later. Good trade, don't ya think? She's the one that's lost over 200 lbs, so far, with lap band. At first she was almost bedridden, with her foot needing surgery. Soooo,,,it WILL work. She has eaten anything she wanted to, too. With it tight enough, can't eat much, that's the secret. Mine doesn't need much tightening, but does need a little.
OK yall, time to git. HAGD

OOO Monday
Loved ur blog today, DD. Never got to travel, as i married at 16, and a little over a year later, had my first child. My only dotter. There just was never a chance after that. When our 3 kids got to be 5-12, we took them to the coast, a first for me!, and was going to all the sight seeing places down the coast, til they got to fussing enough for me to say, LET'S GO HOME. Cut that trip short, not gonna travel with fussing kids! Never mixed them again, lol. Always took my young bro, B, and never ever had a problem with the boys. And took a friend along with my dotter on those trips.
We were probably the only mom and dad, that our teenagers would go with. But, we went to all kinds of races, even had GTOs to run in drags later, and add in the motorcycle, boat races. We were FUN!! lololol Always had add ons, too. There was a place marked off on one of the CRs, a 1/4 mile, and when my son agreed to run someone that had kept on , all the other kids couldn't believe i was there. As a fan! lololol. He took off way ahead, but blew something and had to stop. Don't remember now, just remember all the black smoke.
OMG hahahaha, just saw on news, a couple got married with a computer as the host. Used ipads to say their , i dos. hahahahaha I knew anyone could get a license to do it, but,,,a computer?
Better get river flow in, before i forget. J=40 M=20 L=6
Got a few hours of watering in late yesterday. Fixing to be BIG protest, if the school is using city water to water sports fields. That's what an employee told my son. The wells had dried up, so they went to city water. And i will sure be one of em. Not gonna let my TREES die, if they can water GRASS!!! So, the poor little kids might have to play on dead grass, or dirt??? Sooooo WHAT??? Poor little things can't handle it, cancel the whole season!! See what i mean? hahahaha,,,already got me going. Bro G is gonna find out. Then,,,that city council will catch hell.
I recorded 2 movies Sat. and put them in last nite, well, had seen the first one, so ff thru it, and then,,,had seen that other one too! Don't do reruns. I keep several recorded, so fell back on another one.
Ok folks, gotta do a move. HAGD

Will We, or Won't We, get our SS Checks
Looking forward to all ur pics, DD. Wondering if BB will take off on Monday or not. As for me, i'm here for the duration, staying in, staying cool. Utility bill wasn't up much, about 15.00, and like i told my Mom one time, i pay for heat to stay warm in winter, i'll darn sure pay for cool in summer. Well, maybe not this time,,if that ss check doesn't arrive. Can u believe that??? And imagine the total disaster that would be? For everybody.
River flow: J=42 M=20 L=6 Don't know how J can be up 4 ft from yesterday, but GOOD to see!
Could not sleep last nite, and made the mistake of eating one of my breakfast bars about 3 am. Never again. Kept waking up with a mouthful of it and indigestion for hours. I can't sleep on an empty stomach, but will eat something else next time.
Gosh, just remembered that today is my once a week watering day, later. Have to wait until 8 pm to start. Didn't make it up for the AM period. I just lay 2 hoses down by trees and let them run a couple of hours. Gypsy was talking about crepe myrtle today, and yes, there's a lot here in TX too. It's hardy and takes TX heat. I have 3 here, one really old one. They can go without water thru the worst of summers. When i landscaped this yard, that's the kind of plant i used, TX native. So almost everything i put out, will make it ok. I made the mistake of putting salvia by my pond, among other things, like a butterfly bush, indigo spirals, and the hummers and butterflies loved all these blooming plants. I didn't know the salvia spread by the roots, and before i knew what was going on, it had choked out and killed the butterfly bush, and a bird of paradise tree. I dug up what i thot was all of it, but,,,,guess what? It could just be dropped somewhere and come up, and it came back from the tiny pieces of roots i didn't get. So beware people,,,put it away from everything else! Way away. Not much left now, tho, the pond is empty and i don't do yard work any more. Gonna find out what the survivors are. There's an old wisteria vine out in the front corner, guess i'll put some water on it. It's huge and needs a good trimming.
Since i put out the big thing of water a week ago, i have some birds back. And, red wasps, lol. Gonna turn my calendar today, look at Aug. lol, just a few more weeks til Sept. where there's hope. And the weeks fly.

The Rain That Wasn't
That DD is gone again!! Must not have wanted to get into that rain. hahahaha Everybody knows the story of THAT,, the rain that wasn't. And BBs gonna stay where he is, and who can blame him? If i were mobile like those 2, i sure wouldn't be in TX now. I would make a good snow bird.
My fav niece and family traveled all over the NW ,,,for 38 days. She's the one that sent me a pic with her having a heavy jacket on, from the Glacier Nat'l Park. And, her sis that lives here, took pics of 2 lemurs that are living out there by them. About 10 miles out. And my sis, N, said her neighbor had seen some out there by them, too. Can just see us getting overrun by lemurs. N had been seeing the lion prints, and then C actually saw it one morning when he left for work. Think i've told ya, u just never know what u'll see around this river.
Just had breakfast, brunch. It's sitting like a lump in my stomach. lol,,,Was just a boiled egg, toast, and bacon. Not sure whether i need more fill or not. Just wait and see, no hurry.
Gosh, couldn't sleep last nite, so i got up about 12, and read. lolol,,,That book is hard to put down. I'm still on the Joe Pickett series. #5, i think. Hate to finish all of them, what will i find to read then?
No plans as usual for the week end. Don't even need to go to the grocery store.
Hearing on my scanner about a woman being found on the floor, and not knowing how long she had been there. I worked for a woman and her son that was severely disabled, just 2 blocks from me. Had known them for years and years, and she was kinda getting alzheimers too. I went by 2 or 3 times a week, doing my job. I was told to go by on a Mon, but then was called and told to go to another place that day. So it was Tuesday when i went there, and there were 3 papers in front, that i always picked up and took in, (Not 3 tho). She didn't lock her doors, so i opened it and called, going on in. I heard her saying something, and her son was in his recliner, twisting and turning, while i went on down the hall to hear what she was saying. She was in the bathroom, and i peeked around the door, and saw her legs in the floor. She had fallen between the commode and bath tub, and couldn't get up. Had been there for days, and her son, JE, had been in that chair too, he couldn't walk without help. Another son lived just up the block and i had seen his truck so knew he was home. I called him, then the company. The company said i should have called the ems, but i told them NO, her son could make that decision, and he came right on. He couldn't get her up either, and in the meantime, i made JE some sandwiches which he gobbled down, was so hungry. And then while they all left for the hospital with her, i cleaned JE up, got him fed and clean. She ended up staying in the hospital for about 2 weeks, with a kidney infection. But then they put both of them in a nursing home in another town, where one of her dotters worked. Was ideal, and JE loved it. What i never understood, was that the older son drove by every day and those papers were out there, the porch lite and dining room, kitchen lites were on all that time, and he NEVER STOPPED and checked on them!!! Nor called!! To me, that's so sad.

Just Where did Weathermen Learn Forcasting????
I looked into those kindle, nook things, and do NOT want one. I also looked on amazon for the free ap, but didn't find it. But thx for the info, sel. I think i missed it, maybe it will be back some time. I didn't like the 6" size, gosh, how much of a page would u get? Didn't like the 10.00 price tag for books. Sooooo,,,library, here i come.
River flow today: J=38 M=25 L=8 And no rain heading this way. Don't know why i EVER watch the weathermen. My son says he can tell more about weather by just watching insects, ants, etc. Over the years, he's gotten pretty accurate. He told me yesterday, he wasn't putting any faith in rain coming. Then today, weathermen agreeing with him, lololo.
Gosh, tried to eat a small rib eye for supper last nite. After 3 bites, that was it. Took an hour to get over that. It stopped me up, and i finally gagged part of it back up. I cut small bites, and chewed a lot, but steak is just one thing i can't eat now. Never wanted anything else to eat, either. Ate a yogurt before bed and that was it. Had a scrambled egg, 1 piece of toast, and 3 slices of bacon for breakfast, brunch today. Took a long time, but got it all down. I had bought pre-cooked bacon, and,,,it's good! If i buy raw, it will ruin before i ever get it all cooked. So this way, no waste.
O Gosh, showing mexican food on tv. HA, got a frozen dinner. lmaoo I picked up a few of those just for times i need a quickie meal. They're NOT good, but,,,,serves the purpose. I can eat anything, not picky. Found that out when i went thru the CNA training and school, in a nursing home. Ate their lunches, and I, for one, found them really good. I get hungry for things like cabbage, and can't cook a head of that just for me, so never do it. Also, squash. Like that any way it's cooked. Okra, too. lol,,,Glad i've already eaten.
Need to get up and get in the shower. It's Friday,,,hahahahaha. Have my hot water heater turned off. Don't need it, with the water so hot coming out of the faucet.
Yall have a good week end.

Yada Yada, all About My Job History,,,Sorta
SS about my blog yesterday. Blogger does that sometimes, just loses it, not saving into draft stage. When that's happened, i've taken the time to redo, but not gonna anymore.
DD, keep atrucking. Maybe u will make it home in time for the storms, woooohoooo. I can't wait. Here we will get rain too, don't know how much. Hope it hits on up the coast a little. I remember Carla, way back about 1960, not sure what year. We had refugees here, was the first time i had seen that. Then we got the wind and rain. Would love a rain thing like that.
I stayed in all day yesterday. Never left the house. Was tired, and wanted to stay cool. Besides, i have a good book,,,lololol. I'm still reading on the series about Joe Pickett. Great books. Hard to put down. When i couldn't sleep last nite, i was up reading it. Took a unisom, and maybe it helped. lol, Not sure about that either. My dotter got one of those nook readers. I'm gonna look into them. She said there's lots of books u can get free. Not gonna get into one where i have to buy books. I have the library! lol, I've used that since i was in about the 4th grade. I was doing volunteer work in it, when all the kids had finally started school and i had lots of time. The librarian told everybody i could do twice the work in 1/2 the time as anybody else. lololol,,,One she told that to, ended up asking if i would come to work for them, her hubby being a new CPA in town. And, i did. Numbers were my thing, so his double entry bookkeeping system was easy to learn. I used that for lots of years, in other jobs here. The last one i had learned to use a computer for it, and that company's books were in horrible shape. OMG,,,the woman that had done them, had no idea how to balance anything!! Took me a long time, but i finally got them in good shape, found 1000s of dollars of mistakes too. When i went for the interview for the job, i was asked if i knew computers,,,yes,,had just finished classes. Did i know how to file insurance claims,,,yes, had worked in insurance doing that too. Did i get along with old people,,,,yes, had worked in home health care.. Next ?,,,when could i start? hahahahaha They had a new computer sitting there, never been touched. ahahahaha. The "old people" was one woman that had been there forever, was in her 80s, and did NOT like change. It was gonna be the ruin of the business, using that computer, but she sure liked it when i printed out the balances owed on the hundreds of accounts, just by clicking a button. Could update them daily. Stupid me, i started right at the end of March, just in time to do the weekly payroll, the monthly mail outs of 100s of bills, and the end of a quarter! I went home the first day, not gonna go back. But, i did. The billing was all done on a typewriter!!!!, The owner's wife helped me, or there would not have been any done that month. There were about 500 small accounts, then about 300 notes, with monthly payments. I worked like crazy for the next month, getting all of that into the computer. When i printed them all out, i had to go thru them all by hand, and separate the notes, from the other. Using the program i had, it wouldn't separate them. Quick books. I was there about a year and a half, and had just gotten all of those balanced. Found one account with a 5000.00 error. Boss just said, OMG. Then he had to call them and tell them,,,but THEY KNEW. They sure hadn't corrected it.
About time for my late lunch. Gonna look into those book thingys. They had a segment on the news just now, comparing them. Kimble, Nook, Kobo, and others. They're all about the same price. Will see what consumer reports have to say.

DD, keep atrucking. Maybe u will make it home in time for the storms, woooohoooo. I can't wait. Here we will get rain too, don't know how much. Hope it hits on up the coast a little. I remember Carla, way back about 1960, not sure what year. We had refugees here, was the first time i had seen that. Then we got the wind and rain. Would love a rain thing like that.
I stayed in all day yesterday. Never left the house. Was tired, and wanted to stay cool. Besides, i have a good book,,,lololol. I'm still reading on the series about Joe Pickett. Great books. Hard to put down. When i couldn't sleep last nite, i was up reading it. Took a unisom, and maybe it helped. lol, Not sure about that either. My dotter got one of those nook readers. I'm gonna look into them. She said there's lots of books u can get free. Not gonna get into one where i have to buy books. I have the library! lol, I've used that since i was in about the 4th grade. I was doing volunteer work in it, when all the kids had finally started school and i had lots of time. The librarian told everybody i could do twice the work in 1/2 the time as anybody else. lololol,,,One she told that to, ended up asking if i would come to work for them, her hubby being a new CPA in town. And, i did. Numbers were my thing, so his double entry bookkeeping system was easy to learn. I used that for lots of years, in other jobs here. The last one i had learned to use a computer for it, and that company's books were in horrible shape. OMG,,,the woman that had done them, had no idea how to balance anything!! Took me a long time, but i finally got them in good shape, found 1000s of dollars of mistakes too. When i went for the interview for the job, i was asked if i knew computers,,,yes,,had just finished classes. Did i know how to file insurance claims,,,yes, had worked in insurance doing that too. Did i get along with old people,,,,yes, had worked in home health care.. Next ?,,,when could i start? hahahahaha They had a new computer sitting there, never been touched. ahahahaha. The "old people" was one woman that had been there forever, was in her 80s, and did NOT like change. It was gonna be the ruin of the business, using that computer, but she sure liked it when i printed out the balances owed on the hundreds of accounts, just by clicking a button. Could update them daily. Stupid me, i started right at the end of March, just in time to do the weekly payroll, the monthly mail outs of 100s of bills, and the end of a quarter! I went home the first day, not gonna go back. But, i did. The billing was all done on a typewriter!!!!, The owner's wife helped me, or there would not have been any done that month. There were about 500 small accounts, then about 300 notes, with monthly payments. I worked like crazy for the next month, getting all of that into the computer. When i printed them all out, i had to go thru them all by hand, and separate the notes, from the other. Using the program i had, it wouldn't separate them. Quick books. I was there about a year and a half, and had just gotten all of those balanced. Found one account with a 5000.00 error. Boss just said, OMG. Then he had to call them and tell them,,,but THEY KNEW. They sure hadn't corrected it.
