Here It Is

 

This is my vine I’ve been talking about.  Guess I could have watered it once or twice and it would look a little better.

It’s been blooming all summer, and has had more on it than this.

My son came over this morning,,,woke me up calling, about 8;30, and I told him to come on over.  We’ve had a good time.  He ate waffles with me, then later we went thru some picture albums,,,more to do.  He’s taking one of the LazyBoy chairs,,,,,we made a trade,,,lol, oil changes.  Yeaaaaaaaaaaaa…. Still one more to go,,,,the newer one.  He liked the older one.

So, this is it for today,,,yall tc, and

Do YOU Do It?

Well, i now know how to make your own pasta.  And i also know why i buy it,,,hahahaha.  G/dotter took about 1 1/2 hours making it, and yeah, it's good, but,,,no,,,would never do it.  She also made her own sauce for the spaghetti.  Had canned tomatoes to do it with, that she had done.  Made her own bread too....Way back a friend of mine did that one day a week, made it with a yeast starter.  Anybody remember that?  I never did it, but lots did.  The starter was kept to start the next batch.  And on and on.

There were chicken wings too, another friend of hers brought and cooked.  Yummmm. 

We keep having little showers go around us, none here.  How can it be raining every day up there in AZ?  Amazing. 

BB was asking about what diuretics were.  I take 2 different ones, and then one pill for blood pressure also has it in it.  I have to go a lot! but i don't have swollen ankles any more.  And my blood pressure is great.  With it doing that, i don't watch what i eat, but never was a big salt eater.  When i was a kid, about 12, my kidneys quit working.  This ol doc here put me on a liquid med, and no salt, no fried for about 2 years.  I got used to the no salt and now i eat a little, but never add it to anything.  I don't remember what the disease was, but my kidneys started working when i started all that, and i've never had a problem since then.  Mother always separated my food and baked it, or whatever.

Ok, time for waffles, yall tc, and

If I Wanna, I Will

I just read a comment about something i said on another blog.  I don't need ANYONE telling me what "down here" means.  Go back and read the rest of the story, you know who.  And you're not "down here" any more, you're "out there".

I didn't do a post yesterday just because i didn't want to.  I needed a day off.  And today, not in the mood either.   

About 3;30 yesterday, there was a small plane crash just outside of town.  Both men were from Kerrville, and died in the crash.  It was an instructor and his student learning take offs, and landings.  Why they were doing it here, i don't know.

Just got an invite out to g/dotters for pasta.  Her birthday is Monday, so i can take her Queen's Wreath.
There's enough bulbs to set in maybe several places.  They multiply.  lol,,,like at least a dozen or more.

Guess that's enough outa me today,,,but,,,yall tc, and

Cya Next Time

No blog today

Queen's Wreath

I usually wait and do my shower til later, but,,,,all that goop on my hair had me in there early today,  How can people stand that?  Maybe not ever touching it?  lololol.  My hair doesn't need that.  I just comb it into place and leave it.

I had asked the friend cutting my hair, if i could get another start of that vine that grows up on one side of her house, so,,,after she cut the hair, we went there and i got some of the bulbs.  It's Queen's Wreath, and i love it.  After it's established, you're thru with it, and it has the most beautiful pink clusters of blooms, all summer.  I'll try to get pics later.  I think i might have watered mine just a couple of times during the drought all last year.  Anyway, these are for my g/dotter's birthday on the 27th.  I put them in a pot when i got home, and that way she can transplant them later. 

Still nothing going on.  Dog days getting closer to the end.  Just went and picked up one of the burgers i bragged so much about, and not going back.  It's gone up, and just wasn't good today.  I like onions, and i asked for them,,got a couple of pieces.  Couple of pieces of lettuce too.  Lots of dripping mayo, ( i like mustard) and the burger patty was still thick.  Maybe just too much.  I just can't pay that for lunch, or if i do, i want enough for 2 meals.  Well, i might go back for the other sandwiches. 

Ok ,,,nap time,  at least a little, so yall tc, and

Hair Cutting Day!!!

My trip to my doc turned out pretty good i think ,,, she did take blood for a thyroid test, since that was the only one that hasn't been done lately.  She also took me off the one for cholesterol, (temporarily),  and cut one for diabetes in 1/2.  Now we play the waiting game,,see how i feel in a month.

My mother and dotter both had their thyroids taken out.  It's something i've always kept a check on.  My dotter was 16 when she had hers done.  lol Wish mine was more active.

Got an appointment for a hair cut later today,,,yeaaaaaaa....  Been getting it almost shaved on the sides, and most of the back.  Love it this way.  The top is longer.  Not quite a mohawk.  But that would be ok,,,lolololol.  I see a lot like this on tv, etc.  Never was one to stay in the past with my hair dos.  Back in high school,, i cut it in a flat top, with duck tails,,, worked with my hair.  Not so good with fine hair.  Anyway, i always liked change and was the first to do them most of the time.

Did i ever tell you about going to a New Year's Eve party,,,and my niece SS,,yeah that one,,had given me a blinking head band?  Got that out just before midnite, and at the right time, turned it on,,,,i was the lite of the party! lolololol.  Have no idea where she got those,,,she was just a kid.  Somewhere her dad played i guess.

O geez,,,somehow i got myself put on that lifeline thing here in TX, on my cell phone.  Well, i couldn't figure out how i was getting lower and lower on minutes, when i had had so many that rolled over on my Net 10.  HA!!!  I get 125 a month, plus 60 (?)) days, but that is leaving me short on minutes.  i could buy an air card and add them that way.  Anyway, i'm gonna try it.  I know,,, i'll have zillions of days, but maybe the added minutes will let me go a long time...

So Glad TVs Back

Well, now i don't feel like i need to go to the doc,,,isn't that how it happens?  Going any way.  I would like to know why i get this way sometimes.  Once, it was my potassium.  Too much of this, not enough of that,,,lol,,,who EVER knows?

Gosh, that America's Got Talent was so good last nite,, and these were acts brought back after being voted off!  Wild cards.  That DeLeon kid,,,that looks like OMG,,,don't know what,,,was back.  He's the one that dresses gothic, has WEIRD blue eyes (contacts) and sings OPERA!  He shocked everybody when he first sang, then the next time, nerves got him and he froze up, got voted off.  But he was great last nite.

I'm still lol about BBs tv,,and still don't know if he is not getting signals, or really doesn't have a tv set.  Hard to imagine not getting something on one.  Even here, you can get one channel with not much of an antenna, the tower is right outside town.

I turned off my ACs yesterday, and they are still off.  This is TX !!! In August!!!  How can that be? 

Well, yall tc, and
