Guess i'm gonna have to quit trying to eat a scrambled egg for breakfast. It sits there after the 2nd bite, like a lump that won't go down. S told me the whites will do that. So it takes me a LONG time to get just 1 down. I'll just go back to the bars. Trouble is, i haven't been able to find the ones i like, why i was eating the egg. Maybe when i go back to Walmart, they won't be out, HA HA. That store in Marble Falls has never been able to keep stocked up, even with common things. Thot after the remodel last year, it would finally be good, but NOOOO.
My son was complaining about them not having the hubcaps he's been buying for years, in sets of 4, for under 20.00. He put them on used cars when they were short. And the new ones now, you have to put that and wheel on at the same time!!!,,,So the Kia he's got now, and needing 1, he was gonna replace with those. Said that's why he sees so many lacking the one, people won't go to the trouble to put it all back on. I told him i would look online and i did find them, but it wouldn't let you order online. hmmmmm,,, don't know what to think about that. I finally just looked at the ones around Austin, and they have em, but i think they're gonna quit carrying them too, in the future. I've read that a lot of the new ones now, are made without a spare. You get a can of fix-a-flat, or something similiar. More space that way. And it's not just foreign ones, it's a lot of GM ones too.
Called about my prescription that they didn't have on Sat. and their truck just got in, will bring it mid-afternoon. They said. huh Hope all these mistakes don't continue after they get moved and settled in. So, that left me able to get out and mail back some stuff i didn't like, and go to the library and get 4 more of the books in this series i'm reading. There's just 2 more, darn it. Love to read series, don't have to hunt for a book to read that way.
See some showers kinda, heading this way,,,,take a stretch to get here. Maybe tomorrow. Told a lady at the library just a few more weeks til Sept. And i knew it was still hot, but there's hope. lol. Possible for a blue norther to come in. lololol,,,this man in there said he hadn't heard that expression for years! He wasn't who i thot he was at first, but was one i knew from way back. He had all the kids some time or another,for swimming lessons and was a life guard for years.
Wellllll, after that egg gets settled, don't know what i'm having. Maybe oatmeal. Finished off all the beans and cornbread yesterday, yummmmm. I can always go to Cooper's and get some beans, but if i go there, gonna want some ribs. Rib, rather. Would just take one. I should cook a pot of beans, and put most in freezer. I DO know how to do it too. But best way now would be to use my crock pot. Did you know there are some brands that are NOT good, won't EVER cook good, no matter what? I've gotten some of those.
Spell checker won't work. hahahahah Maybe i didn't misspell anything. yall HAGD

Play the Game
Think ur smarter than the government? Here's a game to play to see if YOU can balance the budget. It's at www.budgethero.org. See what u have to give up, or if u have to raise taxes. I haven't tried it, might later. Just read about it today in the paper.
Had had so tiny a drizzle, it barely ran off the roof, this morning. But it's nearly noon, and we still have clouds drifting by. Is this all ur sending us, HJ? hahahahaha Got my back door open, to watch, just in case, u know.
DD, luv ur pics. I think my house had some of that iron wood in it. lol,,,,There's wood in it, that u can't pull a nail out of, or nail one into. Was told, it was heart of pine. Old. Ran across it when i was remodeling here. Was trying to take one door frame off, and the nail heads came off instead. lol. Wasn't the framing, was what was under it. Gonna be tough, to replace the front storm door, and the entry door. At least i don't have a bee hive in the walls. Like the house in Austin, had had one for 40 years, was over 7 ft of it in the wall. Lots of honey,,,,lololol. The owner got one jar of it, later.
River flow, lol, didn't forget today. J=37 M=20 L=6
Spending too much time on this lately. Nothing going on, so either they will be short and sweet, or i will be skipping days. HAGD

Rental Property
Got everything done this morning, except shower. Waiting on delivery of a prescription.
I went out earlier and tried to straighten out the grill thing on my bedroom AC, not much luck. Just don't have anything that works good. I took out 3 different combs, a stiff toothbrush, and didn't do much good at all. It has a grill over it that needs off. Have no idea why it's on there anyway. It's like a 2" square one. I might could make a comb work if that wasn't there. Needs to be cut off tho.
Called drug store and they aren't delivering the prescription this morning. Said they didn't hear back from my Doc yesterday. Since it comes in 3 boxes, they can bring one, and the others when they get ahold of the Doc. Have to have it after 1 more day. Told em, if it was up to me, i wouldn't take any of it. But my Doc doesn't agree. Won't know about all the blood work til next week, maybe then. (Wishful thinking)
WELLLL, my trail of ants are back in full. Going thru that sevin dust like it's not there! Don't know what i have on this side of my house, that they find so good. Also, i found another nest of yellowjackets. Had seen 1 sometimes, but not another nest. When i moved my broom there it was. All 2 of them. Straight into house, back out with my can, got em. WHY WHY are they insisting on building here by my back door? I have nooo mercy! When i was a kid, red ants fascinated me. They won't sting unless they are mashed on, used to let em crawl on me. One time, i tried to dig up a hill of em. Then another time, i filled a gallon jar with dirt, and put some in it. Had tunnels all thru it. My son used to throw his carcasses of animals he'd shot, on a bed of them. Then he had the skeleton.
LOLOLOL,,,Gotta tell u what my bro B did way back. He was painting my dining room, and when he started on the ceiling, he wrote RUDE on it. Don't know why, but he did, then he painted over it. Years later, i had rented the house, and went down there using an excuse of some kind, cause weird stuff going on, like windows in the garage painted black, padlock on the door, etc. Wanted to check this out. He and my son went with me. Didn't find anything in the garage, but the man said he wanted to show US something weird in the house. We all went in, and he pointed out this writing on the ceiling coming thru the paint, said he's just noticed it not long ago. He thot the house had ghosts! lololol See, i didn't know B had done that, so i thot, strange, too. They told me later, it was all they could do not to snicker, when he had said that, after B told me what HE had done. They were among the many that left owing me. I always tell people NEVER rent a house. You will lose big time. Damage, rent owed, etc.
OK gotta get. Friend S called, said she had some cornbread and beans if i wanted some. DO I EVER!!! hahahahaha. Hunger calling.

Lizards Around
Lots better today. Had those chills til after lunch. And i did go back to bed, took a nap after lunch. I was never well enough to leave the house tho, so i just stayed in, stayed cool. My Doc's appointment is at 11:15. I'm way late for my blood work. Gonna see if i can get off a lot of my meds. My BP ones for sure.
Yeah DD, the lap band is what makes it hard to eat or drink. I have to really pay attention to getting enough fluids. Of course, after my pot of coffee, doesn't leave a whole lot to require. lololol It has left this little pouch at the top of my stomach about the size of a walnut. Food will go thru very slowly. Or fluids. If i get too much in it, i have to gag it back out. Gets painful if i don't. You think that if something gets stuck, you can drink something to wash it down. NOOOO,,,makes it worse.
My trail of ants are gone. For the time being anyway. Thru the sevin dust is a trail all the way across. Had to be a pretty good sized lizard. Have lots of those around. When i first bought this house, every year i would find newly hatched ones in my kitchen sink. Some were so new they were clear. I would very gently take them outside and put them in a safe place. Don't see them any more. Something must have happened to the mother. One time, at the last house, i got home and saw one half way down a hole backwards, laying her eggs. Later, saw her covering it up. WELL, next day when i got home there was a dam snake in that hole eating the eggs! Still don't know how it knew they were there. They must smell a lot better than you would think. I chased it but it got away.
Have 45 mins before i have to leave, so getting off of this. HAGD

Not Well
Think i'm sick. Have chills bad enough to wear a warm up jacket, bp 93/94. Can't get in to see my doc til 11:15 tomorrow. Think i'm going to bed and cover up. Don't worry, if it gets too bad, i'll call an ambulance. Don't feel like standing long enough for a shower either.
Took a drink of water during the nite, bad mistake.!!!. Kept coming up into my throat for hours. I sat on the side of the bed, trying to gag it up, never did. Then when i laid back down, same thing. Won't do that any more, will do what i've been doing, wash my mouth out, and spit it out. It's hard to get enough liquids. I do get my coffee down ok, it's hot.
OMG, paramedics in Austin gonna use motorcyles. wow. Great idea. Can get there lots faster.
Got my spotting scope in yesterday. Not sure if i like it r not. When u go up from 15, it isn't clear. Need to check it out somewhere else.
Huge trail of red ants this morning when i went out for the paper. I later put a line of seven dust across it. Need that sidewalk, lol, and don't want a sting.
Obama threatening to not send out ss, and vet checks on the 3rd. And disability. Horrible. Hate to even read about the debt, and how to fix it. Has to be a way.
OK yall, just so u know, i don't discuss politics or religion in public places. And this is public, so sorry for the above.
Sorry about being short today, just not well, need a nap.

Rabies Around?
Hey Anon, why would ol Ben apologize? Don't u know he's always right? He blocks me off his blog, lololol, cause i made a negative comment. hahahahaha. Made my day! Whatcha wanna bet, he's reading these, hope he loves my comments.
There have been Kothmans around here always. Lots between here and Mason, and West toward Brady. Didn't recognize the other name.
I might get out later and pick up my car tags. Not one to get out early, like, it's after 11 now, and i'm just having breakfast. But, i have had my coffee and read the paper. Daily ritual since the 60s, but now i don't have to get up earlier than others, to do it.
Jude wouldn't come in this morning, cause something dragging on the bottom of my door was scaring him, and i couldn't hold that hot door any longer. When i looked later, there's been something up on the table that turned over a couple of cans, one with bird seed in it. Lid off too. lol,,,No doubt a coon. One time when i was up during the nite, (i open my bathroom window when i go to bed) there had been a skunk around, that sprayed. Keep hearing on my scanner about people calling in about suspicious animals. It's been too much rabies around this year, so anything gets called in now. A neighbor called in about a cat that was foaming at the mouth, in his yard. OMG i called Jude and he didn't show up, (he got his update for rabies a few months ago) and i knew cats do that if they are sick. Had one of mine do that one time, because he had a fish bone stuck on a tooth and couldn't swallow. I watched him a minute, then opened his mouth, saw what it was, got some pliers, and pulled it off. Hubby had taken off running, wouldn't get near him. Poor thing couldn't swallow at all. Anyway, back to this report. Since i couldn't find Jude, i got in the car and went over there, had heard the official say he just had a big gun. I was horrified he would shoot the cat. Well, he didn't. He was smart enough to look at the cat and decide it needed a vet, not disposing of. It was the neighbor's cat. And that's the same thing i told him, that the cat was sick. He said it had had rabies shot about a year ago, and they last 2-3 years. The vets re-do them in years like this, after 1 year. I don't panic when i see an animal doing something unusual now, like a skunk of fox being out in the daytime. You can tell if there's something really wrong. Like the skunk called in this morning. It was staggering around. Everything is looking for food and water. When the sun gets over to the West, i'll get out and clean up the bird seed. Don't wanna be feeding mice. On that table anyway. lololol That 5 gal bucket out in the storeroom is fine.
Hey DD, thx for the pics. Sure would like to be a snow bird. Winter here, summer there. lol. It's hard to believe the coast is as dry as we are. Paper today said all of the Texas counties are disaster areas now. Only crops making are the irrigated ones, and the wells are drying up for those too. River report: J=39 M=22 L=6 Wow we're up 1. Those little showers musta done that.

How do I Do These Things?
DD's got a blog today! About time, lol. So,,, it was hot up there in Texarcana? huh? We got this little pop up shower late yesterday, but don't know how much. Rained real hard for about 10 mins or so, then all was gone. Had a little pea size hail, wind, too. So,,i didn't get out and turn the hoses on. My lot is on a slope, so the part that was so dry, is on the downhill side, will seep to it. Always does.
Got to fooling around with things on here, not knowing what, and wow, if u hit compose up there, u get all ur tool bar filled in!,,,Most of the time when i'm doing something like that, it ends up costing me. So after my last episode, costing so much, i really don't like to try it. Even the dell repairman couldn't get this back to where it had been,, not this part, my email part. So when i save an email on here, i have to put it into a new file, in email, can't put it in favs or docs any more. Or, i can send it to myself, and on desktop, put it where i want. So, u see why i don't just go around clicking this, clicking that? You also saw where i had 2 of the same blogs yesterday. I have NO idea how that happened either. Took one off today. I did go back later and added onto what i thot was that one, but i guess it wasn't.
Couldn't get to sleep last nite, AGAIN! Got some unisom but not sure if i should take it or not. Need to check on that today. Used to use a web site to check on all the drugs i had to take. You would be surprised to see how many times ur prescribed some that won't mix with others. Now i really check.
Know this is short, but not much going on around here. HAGD
