Good Morning,,,

Went to bed last nite, normal time,,and could NOT go to sleep....So it will be naps today,,,yeah,,,plural.

Got to laughing,,,,of all things,, one time about bro B.  He was doing the cooking out at Ns house,,,and bringing the meat.  BUT,,,he forgot the meat!!! hahahahahaha,,, Had to call and get his son to bring it on out...hahahaha,,, With all the hunters in town, the store was almost sold out, and he had to take what he could find,,,which was some thin pork steaks, and at the meat market store, the 1" pork chops.  Both were fantastic.  I brought a plate home too.  Yeah, that's what he left in town.  All of it was great, even the laughs.

Had washer games going too.  My dotter and g/dotter even showed up,,,big surprise,,(g/dotter) cause she always works on Sats.  It wasn't too hot in the shade, and a little bit of a breeze got up.  I did make the firecrackers, and brought home what was left.  The ritz had been picked out,,,lolololol.  Mostly the saltines left.  Now i know which ones are liked the best.

There was something going on in the Badu park in town,,,don't know what, but there was a band, "Cheap Sunglasses" gonna play ZZ starting about 8, so a lot of us got back for that.  I didn't stay after 3 songs,,,it was either where i was parked, or they really were NOT good.  I think all  of it was maybe to do with a wild game cook off.

Way back, maybe in the 80s,,,there was one here, (first one) and there were maybe a 100 cookers.  Some friends were entered and asked all of us to raid our freezers and i found ONE young squirrel my uncle had left with me, so i gave them that, and maybe some quail...Out of all turned in,,,LOTS,,,that ONE squirrel, which was thrown on at the last minute just cause it was there,,,,,,won!!!  That was where i tasted my first fried rattlesnake, which i liked.  (Taste like,,,FISH) haha   The first place prize,,,he took the trophy, i took the money,,,lol.

Thinking pretty hard about a nap,,,NOW,,so yall tc, and

White Cranes

 

These were a group of white cranes, out at the city park ,,,yesterday.  There is just one large one, and the rest are about 1/2 that size.  The large one is right at the point on the bottom.  I know my pics aren’t good, but,,,, it’s this or   nothing.  The reason I know they are cranes, is because J and I looked them up on here a few days ago, determining what some blue birds were.  Saw the white at that time.  But why there’s so many little ones, I have no idea.

Got my mower man, and bro’s snake out there this morning,,,and,,,wouldn’t work.  He jabbed and jabbed, and it never changed a thing.  Soooo,,,came in and called a plumber.  Gonna get to see some butt crack,,BB,,lolololol.   He’ll be by today.  Better not be lying!!!  He’s new here in town, and they’ve rented bro’s car lot space,,,She does the great burgers,,,(used to).

Sis N’s having us all out there later today.  Bar b q.  Think I’m gonna take those firecrackers.  Darn,,,need oil.  But I can get that at the $Store.  Not going til later,,,too darn hot.  There is shade tho. 

Got flea med on Jude,,,and 2 filters cleaned,,one more to go.  It’s the first.  Jude was sure scratching last nite,,,was time.  I am convinced those bad bites I had were from the fleas.  He always sleeps on my lap when I’m watching tv at nite and at one time,,,those fleas were giants.  Just 1 or 2 is all I ever saw on him.

Well folks,,yall tc, and

End of Week, End of Month,,,Blue Moon

Waiting on J to show up for my waffles.  He's been trying to drive a standard shift car, which he put in 1st gear and left.  So he's switching to an automatic, not even supposed to be driving.  He just eases around a little, really doesn't do much. 

I've got a stopped up,, almost, sewer line, and i have called my mower man to come and help me.  Left a message, haven't heard back yet.  G has a snake, so maybe we can get it going without me having to call a plumber.  That's all he does,,,use a snake.  And you know how they charge!

Called our mayor a bit ago, and NOTHING has been done about the gate.  I was told they were gonna talk to the man Wed., but they haven't even done that.  I kinda made it clear we were at the end of our patience, so ,,,a couple of more weeks, and we will get back in their face if nothing has been done yet.  We want it finished!!! 

All i've got,,,too,,,so yall tc, and

Gotta Watch the Results Show

Goodness gracious,,,it's Thursday,,,week's gone AGAIN!  How can the time go so fast now?

I got all my laundry rounded up, and then when i took a shower, my drain gurgled.,...Now i can't do laundry til later, sure don't need an overflowing drain.  J went off with my bro B out to a ranch, but i called and he said he'd come by and help me try to run a hose into it, see if i can unstop it.  He had called earlier saying how much better he felt today.  Last time the drain did this, i stood by the washer, and let a little out at a time...BUT, i'm afraid i'll miss it and have backup.

Forecast is 100 here today.  Think i'm staying home,,,lol.  When it's that, it'll be 105 or so.  Always more.  We needed Isaac,,,  Got winds from the NE from it.

I don't know what happened on Amer Got Talent, had to record it last nite.  When S called i told her,,,'don't tell me",,, lol.  That's the one where there were 12 acts, and i voted for 9,,,hahahahah,,,just 3 could stay.  But,,they were all so good, i sure couldn't decide.  So,,,the results are what i recorded.

Over the Hump,,,

My son is coming over any time, so this will be short.  I think he wants to sit in his chair that's still here,,,lololol.  We'll go thru some more of my picture albums too.  He found his gf in one of the pics, when they were like,,10 or 11, at his birthday party.

Can't think of a thing i have to do today.  Maybe a load of laundry later.  Or tomorrow,,,

DD was talking about a missing blogger,,,When someone posts every day, it really does worry you when they become missing.  At our age, who knows what has happened? 

Today is the day the pharmacy delivers my refills every week.  Just 2 today.  They show up before noon, which is perfect timing for me.

Little Jude,,lol,,,ran out of cat food earlier, and just sat there, and every time i got up,,,here he was, sitting there waiting,,,Had to refill that thing before my 2nd cup of coffee!! 

O WOW,,,last nite on America's Got Talent,,,out of the 12, i voted for 9!!! hahahaha,,How can anybody pick the best one?  They were all the WOW factor.  Only 3 could go thru, too,.  Tonite shows those.

Ok gotta go, yall tc, and

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
