Rain, Rain, and more Rain!!! All nite long. And more coming. How can the cable have just one channel? Makes no sense!
OK back to rain!!!,,,River's up, creeks flooding, low water crossings closed. Heard on scanner down at Kingsland slab, has 2 feet of water over it, closed. And it was totally dry. Saw where we might get as much as 2.65" overall. That was on the one channel i can get this morning. When i look to see what we got, it just shows since midnite. O well, we got rain!!!
Electricity just now came back on. Now i don't have even one channel. O well, nothing i wanted to watch anyway,, fixing to take a nap. Not sure that antibiotic is working. I am so cold, i put on warm ups, lots better now. Have a little heat on in here too. I slept GOOD last nite so that's a big plus. I've eaten a boiled egg, 1 pc of wheat toast. My blood oxygen i'm watching, was 88-87 at first, then went up to 95, which is good. After that bad bout of pneumonia, i bought one of the things that clip on ur finger and gives u a reading, just like the docs. lol So i'm taking lots of deep breaths. AND, i can move around enough to do a few things. Just the chills and my eye sockets r sore. Explain THAT! Ok,,enough. If i get to feeling worse, i'll go to the ER. O yeah, i coughed for quite a while after i got up.
Maybe bl, nap time.
6:30 pm
Cable came back on, and then i had to set both the tv and vcr. Haven't done a thing today, been in survival mode. Napped a few times too. lol. Watched a few episodes of Hoarders. My Mom was one. She filled every room in the house, all the outside buildings, everything, with mostly JUNK. There was a trail to her bed and just one side to sleep on. She kept buying freezers, had one even sitting out on the front porch. Run out of room, buy another one. After she passed, took all 5 of us about 6 months to get rid of everything, and empty the house enough to put it on the market. We just let it go, let her do it. We knew it was a disease, but it seemed to make her happy. She went thru the Great Depression, and i think that had a lot to do with it. She'd buy things at garage sales, or other places, broke things, because they could be fixed. Then they never were. There was an old freezer out in one of the storage buildings that had been buried for about 20 years, not running. Heck, couldn't even open the door to look in, let alone get to it. No one wanted to open it and look, but bro B did, then shut it real quick, lololol. I had picked up a pile of magazines and stuff off a shelf after we had worked out way over weeks, and put them in the wheel barrow to go to the HUGE dumpster, and he picked up one, and OMG, under it was about 10 of the newsletters i had worked on way back in high school!! They covered all the happenings, news, etc, and were monthly. To me, they were priceless. It meant a lot to be mentioned in them. In one, someone wrote about me, that when i got a new haircut, i got a new personality, lololol. i had all kinds of wild ones. A flat top with duck tails,,once. I worked in the art dept. of it. Back them, u cut stensils.
Enough for today, might be something coming on tv. It's 7 pm.

Game Day l..l
OMG,,,can't sleep!,, Can't get on my stomach, that pushes up anything from it, then sometimes i burp or something, and wake up coughing. Don't stop til i get up. I put another pillow under me, raising up my head, maybe not enough. My doc thot i might have to call my surgeon doc and ask about this. I'm gonna pile up pillows tonite. I'm also taking an over the counter thing for acid reflux, but takes 4 days to take effect. Finally have gotten to the right place with my lapband, now this. Gonna nap a lot today.
HOOK EM HORNS!!! Game with OU coming on at 11:00. Got a McCoy back in there quarterbacking, with a Shipley receiver. Among others. lol. I remember being on interstate 35 one time the day before this. You've never seen anything like it. 1000s of kids and cars headed up there.
Been sitting here at my table watching lite showers come by. Very very lite. But it's wet. DD, i bet u don't get a drop down there. But,,i'll keep something crossed.
The 2 men got my storm door on yesterday. Don't feel like doing pics today, but will later. Not even up to a shower yet,,,,so hold ur nose. lol.
OK nap time,,,probably bbl.

Think I'm Recovering
How u like it? Was reading about the changes in blogger, got into this. I'll take a vote, like or not.
Lots lots better today. In fact i woke up about 3.30, and in a bit, got up, paper was here, made coffee. lol
After all that, went back to bed for a bit.
DoT,,that's u, daughterof texas. I did mention why i didn't post to ur blog, having to fill out too much private info, and it's because u don't use blogger.com. You and 2 others. That's why u can't post to ours. Plz come join us. As concerning ur age and career, that's about when i got into home health care, and it became my favorite of all the things i had done. Sure beat sitting behind the same desk, in the same chair, for 40 hours a week. You can get just a short training to become a cna, and increase the pay, or go a little longer and become an lvn, which is really good pay in the field. There's all kinds of jobs in the medical field that would require a little training and age would have nothing to do with it.
Get out of there BB, u have to, if u can't blog u know. Can't catch fish, can't blog, geeezzz,,,can't fix Bubba Boat,,cmon...
OOO YEAH!!! Almost forgot to mention these bugs we have called the kissing bug. You'll welcome bedbugs,,,over these. They are blood suckers too, but can cause this Chagas disease, and that's NOT GOOD. I've seen em around here, but don't think i've been bitten by one.
The article was too long to post here, but look it up. Also called cone nosed beetle.
OK drawing a blank, gettint tired, maybe bbl.

What a Difference a Day Makes
WOOOOHOOOO... it's working right!!! Got another cc put into this band, and now,,,a few bites is all i can handle. Just one cup of coffee was all i could get down too. Made for a horrible nite tho. Took my late pills, late, and that was after drinking one of those things that are meal replacement drinks, and o boy. All nite, i had those bitter pills coming back up in my mouth. Won't drink anything after 6 any more!!! Was after 5 before that let up, had to lay on my back, otherwise the pressure would push that liquid up. yukkkkkkkkk. Gonna have to watch my sugar carefully. Tempted to just drop those pills.
Eating oatmeal now, and a few bites is all i can do. Sue just showed up with some stew type stuff. YUMMM.
We drove thru a lot of the burned places on 71, and it makes u sick. Then last nite, heard there is another fire going in Bastrop County again! Was 25% contained late last nite, and no houses lost yet. Read why so much of those places around 71, where we were, stays like it is. It's in a habitat, and to just cut down a cedar tree, u have to have a permit. Even in ur own yards. They just changed it, after the fires, to,,,u could cut down cedars up to 3" without the permits. Prices to pay, when u deal with the government.
My concern is,,where do all the animals, birds, reptiles, etc go,,after these fires, that is, if they lived thru it? No food, no protection, and i was told deer were showing up at peoples homes, hanging around now. I remember an old Steve Irwin show about going thru rescuing all kinds of things, after a fire. Does anybody do this here, now? They do dogs and cats, pets, but not the wild ones. Did see where some people were taking food out for the wild life. They've lost their homes too.
Ok, off my band wagon, lol. Quit trying to eat, will try again later.
Think i really need to get up and make a few moves. Like, shower, do a little vacuuming, (MAYBE),,wash dishes. Need to go pick up another can of that expanding foam stuff, for the door. Hope they have it at the $ store. Everybody hates to go to Buttery's.
Might make it back later. who knows.

OK,, New Door
From the inside, and trim not painted yet, waiting ‘til storm door is up.
This is open, showing porch post too. See my funky color?,,,lololol,,,House is lite yellow, with that as trim. Got the blinds ordered yesterday, and I did find the magnetic ones.
My font won’t stay this size, having to change it every time I make a new paragraph.
It’s 10;30, and I have 2 hours ‘til we leave for Austin. All I have to do is eat and throw something else on. And let me tell u men, I’m NEVER LATE. Think my Mom made me this way, making us late everywhere we went, and I hated it. If I’m late, there’s something wrong. lololol,,,got it? hahahaha I have leftovers from supper, a kid’s plate of chicken strips/baked potato. These strips are like nothing I had ever seen. They make their own, and they look like big fillets of chicken breast. One is enough. And they give u 2, on the child’s plate. The only difference in a regular plate and this, is no salad, which I can’t eat lettuce anyway. AND, it’s been on a recall too. lololol. Let’s see, cantaloupe, ground beef, lettuce…What’s next?
Got a load of laundry in the dryer. Don’t like to leave those running when I’m not here. Used to all the time. My washer had a seal break under the tub one time, just a few years ago, and I got the whole tub of water out in the floor, plus, all the wet clothes still in it. MERCY!!! Did I ever have a mess to clean up. So, not trusting them any more, I run them while I’m here.
BB, I put MY pics up,,now,,,where’s the FISH? hahahahaha.

Good Ol Monday,,,Again
Got one door done Saturday. Took 'til about 3, and i had some things i needed to do, so we were both glad to agree to do the other one next Saturday. That will be the storm door. I absolutely love my new one, with the windows on top. Not sure what i'm going to put over them, but that's ok for now too.
Hobo, i've found out i had rather pay by the hour. It's higher paying by the job. This is the same, but i'm paying by the job. lolol. Costing more. But u know what, i'm sure not complaining, knowing what they had to go thru to make that door fit. Maybe the storm door won't be too bad, since i had one put there way back. The north wind hit it so hard a year or so ago, when i had company coming in thru it, it broke and even pulled out the closer thingy from the door jamb. I'm having them put on a chain this time, to help with that.
Got out already and did a couple of errands, paid my utility bill. It was down about 30.00 this month.
I'm really hating to keep reading that Texas might be in a drought 'til 2020. Had enough!!! Bro G told me yesterday that the reason our river has been lots higher was because they have made places quit pumping out above us, for private uses that don't comply with the drought conditions.
Gotta go to Austin tomorrow, but not leaving 'til around lunch time or so. Apt is at 2:30. Going with Sue. She had her band loosened a few weeks ago, needs to check in. I need mine tightened some. I always enjoy the trips with them. We're just going down there for that, and coming right back. Yeaaaaa. I never have any reason for other stops, and it makes for a long trip when others do. But,,i'm with them, won't complain.
Ok, time to do SOMETHING,,, eat for one thing,,not sure what. Guess i'd better get up and look, see what i can find.
