Time, Time, Time

Not much time today after bro came by and we polished up our petition. Got an appointment to get a hair cut in a bit, so time is short. Which doesn't matter anyway, nothing new going on.

Just tried to eat a couple of slices of pizza for lunch. That stuff just won't go down, had to quit. Gets hung and i have to upchuck a little to get it out. No more! When it is shut down, liquids won't go down either so you can't take a drink to wash something down. Won't go!

Also been messing with one of my scanners, not picking up the dispatcher, which is strange. I think it's the antenna connection but haven't been able to help it. Got another one plugged in now, checking. I get it on one of them, so i should be on the others. Get the ones talking to the dispatch, just don't get dispatch. GRRRRRRRRRRRRR Had 2 people call me and ask what was going on nite before last...hahahaha...was a hi speed chase from maybe Brady, for the man, driver, supposedly very suicidal. He ran over tack strips in 2 different places and still didn't stop. When he finally did, it was in the lot at my son's place. hahahaha,,,and he was one of the 2 that called, and missed it by about a minute, had just left. They took him to jail, and about 15 minutes later, were calling for EMS. See how exciting a little town is? hahahahaha,,,My ears really perk up when i hear my last name on there...seeing who, what, where is going on. One time my nephew told the cop, they just wanted to go walking in the dark!!!,,,lmaooo,,,told him later, couldn't you think of something better than that!! They had looked suspicious. He started laughing,,said he told his friend,,,my aunt will hear this! They had parked their vehicle at some storage units and walked to a tower and climbed it,,,sure couldn't tell that. Wish my son hadn't told things HE did, don't need others doing them.

Gonna go ahead and pay my house taxes today. We used to get a discount by paying them early, now,,it's the same til the end of Jan. So i never give them my money to use any earlier than i have to. Doing it today, cause i am kinda forgetful,,,lololol.

Hey, yall tc, and

Late Today

I'm still laughing over my imagination of BB driving around a Walmart in one of those electric carts!!! Don't blame his son for telling him he wasn't gonna be with him any more....hahahaha

My bro G came by this morning and we got this river stuff ready to start getting signatures on. I also talked to our game warden yesterday, and he said he did know about it, but understood that the gate was going to be way on down by the railroad tracks. Said he would go by when he was back here, and get back to me. My phone line kept cutting me off and on yesterday after the rain started, and when the repairman came by today, (problem was on the pole) he was even shocked about that gate. Said he even used that street to take his kids to the river. And he will be glad to sign our petition. Everybody has said that too. The friend on the city council called this morning, asking how we were doing on it, and when we wanted to get on the agenda with it. Also, asking how she could help.

Just saw on the weather, how bad Houston is getting it right now. wooooohoooo,,DD,,gonna get that swamp full YET! It started here about 1';30, i was awake,,bad wind, then later the rain. lololol,,,we got a total of .54! Always that way. Maybe a little more coming tonite.

I ordered some pants, online of course, and just don't know HOW i managed to get the size of 2 wrong!! How can you do that? Makes NO sense to me. Anyway, i sacked them back up, went to the post office to get them sent back and,,,WHEN did the postage go up so high? Cost 8;05 for just 2!!! Way back when, woulda been about 4;00. Is that the way they're gonna use to stay in business? lololol. At least i won't have to pay postage on the exchanges coming back to me. Which made no sense either, but i asked several times,,to be sure.

*&^%^%#! it!,,,set my vcr to record Idol last nite, and did it wrong! Hate when i do that. I've watched some shows later online, maybe i can find this. Looked for the one on Sunday nite, but never found it, so missed it too. And,,i would turn my tv off if i couldn't get something besides Obama. When i see a blog doing politics, it's OFF for me! Who the hell cares what their opinion is??? Got mine, yours won't change it, soo,,,won't listen,,or read.

OK,,enough of that,,,lolololo,,yall tc, and

HAGD

Did You See Him?

Did i see Hobojoe???? Sneaked in to BBs blog! THEN, didn't do a post on his! OMG,,just don't know what to think!

Supposed to have big rains the next 2 days. HUH!,,I just looked and it's all over to the E, map showing big rains THERE, in places. Austin just had some hail. That's what made me look, to see where we stood. No worries. It is cloudy, cooler.

Guess what i found in my pantry,,,hahahahaha,,,Don't know why i didn't look at it when i went thru the pantry before. It's a box of cake mix,,,expiration date,,,9-00. hahahahaha,,,I don't have very many boxes any more. lololol. And that pancake mix i used today,,,gone! It wasn't out of date, just horrible tasting. YUK,,,I will get to the store today for waffles. (I'm out). Out of milk too. The $store might have those.

I'm still walking, did a little more yesterday, i think. Gonna have to start wearing my monitor. Hope there's not a minimum,,,hahahahaha. Maybe these shoes that rock and roll, are the difference. Can barely stand in them,, make me stagger. lololol. I can just see trying to explain that to a cop! Hey officer, it's my shoes. Bet that's a new one.

Seems my posts are getting shorter all the time. Don't want to quit doing dailys tho. Even if they're short. Just nothing to say. Same ol, Same ol,,, Maybe it'll get better. For all of us that seem to be stuck in a rut.

So,,yall tc,

I Did It!!!

Just before the kids showed up with supper,,kids,,lol,,, i somehow did something,,that saved all the 2011 blogs to documents, then i put them on a flash drive! It looked like it had just saved a little over a month of them, but,,,you can clic on the links and go to ALL of them. Comments too! I think it took all of 2 seconds. I showed the kids, so they would know that little fd had like,,my journal for the whole year. This beats a book, and those little fds don't cost much now.

BB, got your email this morning, after the fact, but TYTYTY. I can't believe how much help i get with things on these blogs. Another thing was using metallic blinds on my new metal door. I had never heard of them, and seems no one else i know here, had either. Even the men that put them on. I looked and even Walmart had metallic curtain rods, etc,,,too. And another thing,,BB,,my son loved your ideas for that gate!!! hahahaha,,Even mine, putting glue in that lock. lololol...Think he might have done just that,,,later. He was sure laughing about it.

I sure hated to read DDs blog today. But i know how he feels, these take a lot of time. (Which i have, but others might not). And i type FAST...lololol. My boss bought a throw away ribbon for MY typewriter one time,,you got to the end, threw it away,,WELLL,,I hated that thing, chewed him out for messing with MY typewriter. I would be right in the middle of something and have to change that **^^%!#^# ribbon. Also, i could type faster than it could move. So a lot of letters hit blank spots. I never let the word,,boss,,,mean anything to me. You ASKED me to do something,,,NEVER ordered!!,,Better even say,,,"pretty please",,,hahahahaha,,,not really.

My son and gf stayed til after 9;30 last nite, and by the time i got to bed, i couldn't go to sleep again. So i'm double tired today. Doesn't matter, i'll nap later. Nothing going on today,,,lolol,,like there ever is,,Well, sometimes i guess. After they left, i turned the tv on, and the game was over, but then the post game came on, so i gave up on watching Idol,,,Haven't figured out WHY it was on that late, and on Sun,,,anyway. Couldn't record it, didn't know the times. I can watch it on this,,later. Have to do that sometimes when i miss a show i wanted to see. OMG,,Steven Tyler sang for it! lmaoooo. Saw that on the Today show this morning.

OK,,yall,,,tc, and

Too Tired to Think

Well, i got some research done about the rivers, access  , and the way i read it, it's illegal to block a public access,,,and a city street is public access.  Printed out some of the reports, just to show in case it's needed.  We want to get others to sign a request for taking that gate down, and that won't be hard...NO ONE knew or wanted that done!  That lock needs some glue in it. hahahaha

Talked to sis N,,and they were into a really bad job.  LOLOLOL,,,Had a dead skunk under the house, all swollen up and putrid, to get out.  Had been under there about a week, she thot.  She said it had porcupine quills in it, so that was wy it sprayed at the end of the house, about a week ago.  She has no idea how it got under the house.  She thot it was skunk proofed a few years ago, when she kept having families living under there.  I'm not gonna let her know how funny i think it is,,,,hahahaha.

My son called just a minute after i got up, asking if he and his gf could come by and make supper,,,WOW,,,sure don't need to ask, far as i'm concerned!,,,I don't know what, didn't ask, doesn't matter.  So they'll be around later, and i'm gonna get a nap in,,couldn't go to sleep last nite, so,,,nap time today.

I still haven't figured out how to save my blogs.  Emailed blogger help, and someone said to go to settings, export,,etc.  BUT, it's gibberish.  lol.  Then sometimes,,it just saves one.  Sure would like to do this, but,,gonna take time, i guess, to figure out how.  That other thing i downloaded, HTTrack, i had to take off.  It wouldnt' work either, or it was me, not able to make it.  Anybody got any ideas?

Might not ever get this done.  Might just be short,,er,,,today.  I've been up and down, doing a few things, like, a load of laundry, using my floor sweeper, and tried to nap a little.  Think i'll call it a day, here.  Yall tc, and

Don't Know How to be OLD

Got my Schwan's order a bit ago.  Will have something from it, for supper.  I have a choice of pizza, or lasanga.  Sound good?

My bro G came by and we discussed what all we need to do about getting that street opened back up.  I talked to a friend that is on the city council, and she told me kinda what we needed to do,,,and in her words,,,"make us look like fools,,,",,,hahahaha.  They listened to one man, and then let him put a gate across this street, all in the same meeting!!!  No posting, no notifying to neighbors,,,US, ,,,just did it all in that one meeting.  That street is the only access to the river below the dam on this side.  I'm going to check to see if it was even legal to do that.  The man did it because of so much vandalism there.  WELL,,, put the dang city cops to work, doing their job!!!  Gonna be hell to pay,,,when we get thru....lololol.  Let him fence his OWN property, not close a city street.  Come to find out,,,the street isn't in the right place,,,it actually needs to go thru a barn he built down there.  hahahaha.  So,, take the gate down, or move the barn!

I read these other blogs,,,like climbing ladders,,cleaning vehicles,,,etc and how much it does to our bodies.   lolol...I don't know how to be OLD!  Can anyone tell me?  If i get down on the floor, how do i get up?  I did that yesterday,,,loolol,,,but,,i did get up.  When i moved some stuff to vacuum,,YEAH I DID,,,i pulled out the plug for the verizon wire.  Didn't know it til later, and that's when i had to get on the floor.  Finally got everything back right.  And up.  lololol.

When i walked yesterday, i went quite a bit further.  Surprised even me.  Sometimes you need to take a day of rest, like i did the day before.  Maybe that's something we learn,,,getting old,,,hahahaha.  I'm even kinda getting to LIKE it. The walking, NOT the other.   I've had to make myself do all this stuff, like the raising myself up and down from a sitting position,,,after i realized if i didn't use it, i would lose it.  And,,at this age, "lose it" takes on a whole new meaning,,,,, So kinda liking the walking is GOOD.  Anybody have any good ideas on this?  Be glad to hear some.

Gosh, didn't think i had anything to say,,,just goes to show,,huh,,,yall tc and

OMG,,,Forgot it is Friday,,,lololol

My friend Sue called and invited me for supper yesterday.,,,And OMG,,it was so good, my mouth still waters just thinking about it. Grilled steaks, baked taters, and all the other fixings. I had craved steak for a long time, not knowing if i could eat it or not. Hadn't been able to the last time i had tried. Can't chew it enough to work with the band. But,,,this was fine. I took one of the thin ones,,,think that made it ok. Sue was ok with it too. Her band is tighter than mine. Brought home leftovers, from my plate, for lunch today. yummmm.

Saw a comment on another blog about neuropathy in the feet, and i have that. NOT to the extent i can't wear socks, but my feet hurt mostly at nite when i go to bed. In the last few weeks, i've figured out that if i stick them out from under the covers, in the cold,,they quit. lolol. Neuropathy causes the nerves to make the bottom of your feet burn, and sometimes shooting pains. Well, the cold makes that burning stop. Without having to take a pain pill. Wearing those diabetic shoes on the trip to Austin, all day, had made them hurt so bad, they are still sore. Not going to wear those any more. I tried some others yesterday, and they are fine. I was way too tired tho, to do my walking. BTW i take neurontin for it, have for several years. Is it helping?,,,Who knows, haven't done without it.

I'm doing this in Chrome, with the old blogger format. But,,it's different. I sure don't like the new one. I downloaded this HTTrack, so i could make copies of my blogs,,all of em. but,,omg,,,don't think i'll ever understand how to do it. I wanted to put them on a flash drive or a cd, but,,have to get them into that first. I'll look at it again,,later, to see if i can maybe understand how to use it. If anybody knows how, or does it, let me know. I know i can have em made into a book, thru blogger, but,,,,,would cost a lot to get em all. This way, would be just as good.

Have yall realized Jan. is nearly gone!!!,,,I'm still amazed how fast time goes. LOLOLOL,,,i might make it to 80 yet!!! hahahahaha Just turn around a few times,,,be there,,,,hahahaha....

Do you know, i haven't even gotten into the shower YET!,,,And i did eat those leftovers, and YES,,,,they were soooo goood. Still thinking about that vacuuming,,,,gonna be walking on a carpet of cat hair if i don't use it soon. Jude gets in front of the heater, does all his cleaning,,pulling hair out,,,etc. Saw a puff of it in there earlier. Ok,,enough,,things to do,,,(or think,,,hehehe),,,yall tc,,and
