Why is it, even after all these years of retirement, that i still hate Mondays? Makes NO sense, does it? Can u get set in ur ways so much, u never can shed them later? lololol. I LOVE retirement,and the best part is,,no alarm to have to get up to. I do whatever i WANT to. WHEN i want to do it. Not that there's much going on. lol.
My friend S, the one with the lap band too, just called and is on her way to Austin to get the band untightened. I have been really concerned because she just couldn't eat anything without upchucking it. Not good. She finally decided that too, even tho she told me last week, she had lost 21 pounds since we were there last, and i think that was in late July. I need mine tightened but not that much. When they do it, it doesn't stay, my experience so far. Am told just to keep on until i find the right place, so that's what i'm still doing. Ur supposed to eat 3 small meals a day, and be satisfied with it. I do the small meals, but get hungry in between. Not right yet.
Still no rain here, and i didn't water any yesterday. Watched it lightening for hours out my front windows, looked real close, even heard it for a while, but,,u know how that goes. Nada. Slid around us again.
Heyyy,,,new shows on tonite,,,finally! Love my sitcoms. Dancing?,,nah. Not even going to record it, who knows when i could watch it. More to come tomorrow nite...woooohooooo.
Sel, did u read my yesterday's comments? I think i figured out why u and 2 others i read, have to have our email addresses to comment. None of you use blogger.com. I have gotten so disgusted with blogger, have thot about changing, but don't think i ever will. Sure don't want to have one i can't set like i want to.
Gonna leave yall now, but,,,might be back,,who knows? lol. HAGD

Rain Rain, Come THIS Way
Ol Jules is Good today. lol. Some of those i didn't even know. A friend one time, told me his young son said he sure had a lot of friends, saw him doing those salutes to everybody, everywhere they went.
Wellll,,,DD,,,YOU got some rain, but,,,,,,,,,like always, comes to city limits, then slides around one way or the other. Sat there for hours, in the NW. Could have driven 3 miles and got into it, and should have, my car needs cleaning. lololol. Also was in S part of county. Just can't win for losing. Haven't decided whether to water any today or not.
OOO BOY,, When that new chicken place, Chicken Express, said hot wings, it meant HOT wings. I got the 6, and they were huge. 3 were a meal, but had to smother them with potato salad each bite. Just had the other 3 for lunch, thru with those. No more.
Loved the Hermit's blog today, in fact, i kept it. I always read the blogs before i post. Lots of times, gives me fresh ideas for mine. And u know i get a bigggg kick out of BBs and Hobos,,just wth is that man? Can't do us this way, u know.,,,,Just ask DD. hahahahaha.
Got a card in the mail yesterday from this little church, has always been mine, that the 60th reunion is coming up first weekend of Oct. I remember going to the 50th,,,really surprised my Mom when i showed up and sat beside her...On Mother's Day, she always had the most kids in attendance,,,was 6 of us. They had 3, and when we got to be teens, decided to have 3 more, how i came up with bro and sis, same age as mine. Anyway, i sure plan on being there. I was a member of it before that building became our church. We had church in an old school house. I helped paint the inside when i was like,,,12. Then as the years went by, helped with lots of other projects too, (building). I was the pianist for a couple of years, way back. lol, didn't play like the book music. Played with chords. My blind piano teacher had taught me that. Don't think i could even play chop sticks now.
Still don't know who is moving in next door. An old blazer looking vehicle was there all nite, and still lots of others showing up with loads today. Never saw any of those people before. Just as long as they,,,she, is quiet, respects boundaries, we will be fine. So far, no site of dogs or kids. And DD,BB, not talking about YOUR kind of little dogs. Talking about big ones, in pens, barking all the time. Lol, Jude came in while it was quiet over there, but when he went running back out, he froze. Heyyyy,,what is this? Then he went slinking around the house, to hide and watch. hahahaha.

Moving Day
Glad to see BB got all those g/kids around, having fun. lol. Don't u just love it? My large family has shrunk so much, and it's just not the same any more. Guess because both Mom and Dad are having to work, then take care of home too. No time. There were always family get-to-gathers up until a few years ago.
When my one and only g/dotter brought her future hubby to a Christmas dinner the first time, he went with them to play football after lunch, played pool, and beat them sometimes, got out his guitar, played and sang, got into the poker game. Loved every bit of it. Later, i heard my bro B and a nephew talking while they were playing pool,,one said, yeah, he played football with us. Then the other said, yeah, good too. Then one said, and he played pool with us, the other said, yeah,,he was good too. Then,,both agreed, gosh he fit right in!! And he did, and that was growing up as an only child for him. My sis asked where they had met,,,i said, on the internet. hahahahah,,,Found out they had!!! A friend of hers found him on Facebook, and got them together. Love at first sight. lololol. His mom made us all cry at a birthday party for her, when we read the card she gave her. The part saying,,never knew what my son would bring home, and then he brought you. They love her too.
Got some new people moving in next door. Kinda hate to see what they are. This is a quiet neighborhood, no yapping dogs, no noisy kids. No loud music. Hope they fit in. Guess i'll find out. lolol. There's so many helping to move, don't know which ones are going to live there. When i moved here, i had a moving party. lololol,,,They got me moved in just a little time, like,,1 1/2 hours. Of course, i had everything boxed, ready to pick up. I had put all my freezer stuff in a black garbage bag, and my nephew was doing great, he picked up all my ash trays,,,and guess where he emptied them!!! hahahahah. Had a lot of fun,,cleaning that up to put in the freezer later. I kept an old trash can, small, by my chair in the living room, with the show world, remotes, etc in it. Guess where they all ended up?,,,yep,,Next day i went back up there and thank God, the bag was on the top in the dumpster. Found them. I had hot dogs, baked beans, drinks, chips, etc ready when we took a break. I've been here 10 years now, i think. lololol.. I just can't remember backwards any more.
Seems everybody's getting rain, here, there, everywhere, but here! Glad it's happening somewhere, tho. Would someone tell me what it looks like? Sounds like? So i'll know, just in case it happens here. You know my memory's not good any more, won't go back that far.
All that cleaning bug yesterday is gone today. hahahaha,,Rest can just wait. That's my motto too. Don't wanna, then don't. My sis N, would just die if she didn't clean her whole house on Tuesday. She'd crawl outa her death bed to do it. Not kidding. She even cleans the WALLS, regular. I can't believe how clean mine have stayed since i quit smoking. They were being painted when i quit, and now they're still good. Hey yall, was 3 years back on 5-1. And not one puff on one since then. 50 year habit. Was actually easier than i had thot possible.
Ok, just after noon, so gonna wish u all a great week end, and HAGD

They Took That Whole,,Cherokee Nation,,,,
OOO MERCY,,,who ever decided a house had to be cleaned? I have to do it in spurts, so today i've done my do, 'til,,,well, whenever. LOLOLOL But, my floors are clean. No shower yet, so, not me. Just now ate lunch, can call it that since it's well past noon.
Hermit Jim sure brought up something very dear to me. I'm part Choctaw, my great grandmother lived on that OK reservation. She married a white man, and that started my line. But, my grandmother, her dotter, was ashamed of being 1/2, so when she had to get a birth certificate in the 30s, she put the wrong names on it. Didn't want it known that she was 1/2 Choctaw. No way now, to trace it. Me, i'm dam proud of it. Then later, found out my kid's dad was the same blood, but from another tribe. And just last year, found out my Dad's side had a connection too!!! Wow. I need to get back to that. I have a whole lot to look into, from his side.
But,,anyway,,i have read about that Trail of Tears too, really really sad!!!.. They put the Cherokees in cattle pens, 'til they could ship them out from their Cherokee Nation, there in the SE. Kept them in those during horrible winter conditions, let them die if they couldn't withstand those conditions. Remind u of someone? Then, the survivors in OK,,tried to rebuild thier nation, but,,here they came again,,,greedy bastards, the good ol US of A. Took everything away from them,,,again!!! Set up a small reservation, put them on it, and there they are still, today. Wonder when they will lose that?
OK,,done with that. And,,today they have found a body of a white man, down there on a little island off of Port Aransas, and think it's the missing man i was talking about yesterday. Was teasing BB about it. Really strange conditions, tho. Name is Christopher Tiensch. Went missing from his hotel room Sunday nite. Taking nothing with him. You can look it up at www.statesman.com,,,
Got my curiosity aroused for sure. Had a woman,, out at Buchanan Dam, go missing, kinda the same. Last seen waving at her dotter, standing in her driveway, in her robe. Nothing gone, but her. I mean, her purse, keys, cell phone, all still there. Found her, gosh, i think, about a year later, tied up with chains, to a sunken boat. On the bank of Inks Lake, BB. Not where u were, but on down, around Kindsland. All kinds of things turn up when these lakes get low. Like, a man in a barrell filled with cement.
My spell checker's not working, so yall just have to make do, today.
Hobo must be at hard labor now. hahahaha,,,Sis caught all that blogging! Hey Joe,,sneak some back on here, we miss ya.
Have to keep on reminding myself it's Friday, whatever that means. Guess all it means anymore, since i don't party all week end, is,,,things will be closed, won't be able to pick up things if i need them. Not that i need anything now.
Gonna get that shower done, so,,,HAGD

Aint He Cute
That's my Jude. Such a good looking kitty, don't ya think? Was wanting me to leave him alone, on my lap, and he didn't know what that thing was, flashing at him. lololol Can't see much of those big blue eyes.
Well, gosh, still fooling around with pics, tags, software. My son came by and told me he liked the one on Windows Live Photo thingy best. and he does millions of pics. But,, he doesn't blog! hahahaha. Now i'm in a mess, was putting tags on em, and got a lot done twice, and can NOT figure out how to take one set off!!. Won't just hi lite and delete, all of em goes to trash bin, had to dig em out. Make 2 sets again. DAM, no one told me this was a major job!!! hahahaha,,,have to ask my son how to, later. Sooo, i gave up for now.
This blogger, just as bad as doing photos,,,lol, it's back to the ol same ol same ol thing. Puters just do strange things sometimes. All on their own. Maybe those 9 updates it did this morning did it..
Can't wait!!!! for that cooler weather. Down into 90s!! hahahaha,,,10% chance of rain?,,nah,,not gonna wait. Do have clouds drifting by sometimes.
Fixing to pan fry me a couple of eggs, got real bacon bits (since i'm outa bacon) and wheat toast. Sure getting ready for it. Rarely buy bacon, don't use it much, have to keep in freezer. Did u know u can throw a package (well, out of the wrappings) of frozen bacon in a pan, med heat, and start cooking it? It will peel off one slice at a time, so when u get what u want, off, take the rest and put back in freezer.
Works great. Figured that out one time when i had to have some and it was frozen. OK talked enough, gotta eat NOW.
Just read Hermit Js blog, and gotta tell ya a little more on my story about books. My sons learned to use the library after they had found out how fascinating books were, and,,well, one time here comes my oldest son, about 14 by then, with a book on braiding. It showed u how to braid from 3 strands on up,,,to gosh don't know how many. He had come home with a bag full of leather strips they had given him at the boot shop, and with me holding the ends of 4 or 6, he made this long square strip, sooo neat. Think it was 4, turned out about 6 ft long. And he might have had em cut those strips too, gosh, can't remember, DD. lololol. I do know he sure used that library a lot. As a youngun, he was fascinated by dinosaurs, so here came the books. One time in the 2nd grade, as extra points, the teacher gave them 5 dinosaur names to spell, and marked one of his wrong. He argued,,but got an x on it anyway. Came home huffing and puffing about it, knowing he was right. Well, the next day, the teacher apologized, told him SHE was wrong.
I know i confuse u, talking about my 2 sons, the one above is the one i have left now, was older than the other one by 4 years. Lost the youngest at 16, and took a LOT of years to learn to live with that, but i did. Might as well finish the story. It was suicide, and he used his gun. He was a happy go lucky kid, everybody loved him, but 8 months earlier, he had been put on a new acne medication. 12 years later they found out it could cause depression and sometimes, suicide. Accutane. It liked to have destroyed all of us. Was the worst hell u can ever go thru. None of us saw anything indicating something was wrong. No one could believe he did it, but he did. It changed us all, even his friends, for the rest of our lives. It was a long time ago, and we can say now,,he would have been our millionaire. He was coming of age at the right time, mid 80s, a total computer geek, and would have been right up there with the best. And we can laugh saying yeah, and he would still have played pool for a $1.00 a game, been right in there with everybody. He nearly got kicked out of computer class in his soph. year, for taking his friend's homework off, thinking it was hilarious to do. I called the principal about it, and he said he could have ruined that puter, i told him,,no,,he probably knew more about them than the teacher!, And i was serious. He got to stay, and he was sure a good kid after that. Heck, from the time he was 10, he went to the computers in stores, not toys. Got his hands on them every chance he got. Took an adult class one time too. Don't get the wrong idea tho, he played football, was into all kinds of things. Loved football as much as puters.
OK,,last nite there was finally a new program on. Maybe there's gonna be something to watch for a few nites a week now. Reminds me, i haven't looked at tonite's lineup.
BB, there have been people killed by those bucks. And they attack for no reason. If they're snorting u better find cover. Serious. I laughed this morning when i read about the missing man right there where YOU ARE. Well, not about him but about you being right in the middle of all those law enforcers and all. Have u been searched yet? hahahaha He had just gotten a big settlement from a company, and my thinking,,did he do this on purpose, start a new life?,, It's in today's paper. Since ur there, tell us what's going on.
Ok,,HAGD yall

One More Time
Still experimenting. Think this might be ok now. This is about all the geese running to me, and i sure felt bad, didn't have anything for them. There's 13.
Hobo J, i did the preview thing,,,thx.
Heyyy,,,i'm Lost Here
WTH has happened with blogger?,,,A whole new set up here. hmmmm, i sure didn't do anything i don't think. Gosh,,,using picasa do this? Don't see any sign anywhere.
Just read Hobo's post, and remembered back a time we all went to a mall, yeah i did, hubby and 2 young teen age boys. Well, i needed a book so when we got to the part with the book store, i told them i needed to go in there for just a minute. OMG,,,,should have heard em all!!! Do we have to?,,i don't want to! Griping, groaning like it was the worst thing imaginable. They drug in behind me, i went and picked up the book i needed, told em let's go,,and went on to the check out. I COULDN'T GET THEM OUT!! It was,,,WAIT!,,,JUST A MINUTE! I don't wanna goooooo. They had each found a whole new world in there, books, books, books, on the subjects each one loved. From then on, it was,,,can we go to a book store? We could just pass one somewhere, and it was,,,stoppppp. Go back...
Hey, i like this new thing!,,,It just expanded this page down automatic. Wow. It's plain, no phychodelic background tho. Boring blue and white. Wonder if i can get my old one back. hmmmm.
Hermit J,,,on the pics,,no matter what size i put on here, u can click on them and expand to full size. I have to do that a lot to see things teeny tiny in some of them.
I told my son a few years ago, and maybe he had never realized ,,,that they grew up different than other kids. We were into motorcycles wayyy back, and i had my own (wasn't gonna ride behind anybody!) back in the early 60s. Only female i guess. But then,,,each of our kids had their own too. Starting with the really small ones, on up. Size i mean. Like in,,height. We took them to all kinds of races, drags, drag boats, motorcross, round track,,all kinds. Then about their teenage years, we got into running our own cars in the drags. Hubby ran GTOs, and so did my oldest son later. A lot of his friends got into it too. We took their friends along too. Gosh, now i think about sitting out in that heat for races, had shades tho, except for a couple, makes me think,,how in the world? lololol. We went to Austin a lot of week ends, just to see a movie, eat out at a good place,,none here. On their birthdays, they got to choose where to eat. lololol,,,youngest always chose Burger King. My bro B was just 4 years older than my son, so he was almost always along too. We had lots of fun, with our kids. Had empty nest syndrome for a long time. Was divorced by then too.
Ok,,enough of my history. Gonna post this and see what shows up.

Just read Hobo's post, and remembered back a time we all went to a mall, yeah i did, hubby and 2 young teen age boys. Well, i needed a book so when we got to the part with the book store, i told them i needed to go in there for just a minute. OMG,,,,should have heard em all!!! Do we have to?,,i don't want to! Griping, groaning like it was the worst thing imaginable. They drug in behind me, i went and picked up the book i needed, told em let's go,,and went on to the check out. I COULDN'T GET THEM OUT!! It was,,,WAIT!,,,JUST A MINUTE! I don't wanna goooooo. They had each found a whole new world in there, books, books, books, on the subjects each one loved. From then on, it was,,,can we go to a book store? We could just pass one somewhere, and it was,,,stoppppp. Go back...
