No Win,,

WOW, rvsue sure had a bad hair day,,huh....I can put myself in her place, and would NOT want that kind of company. Heck, i don't even like to put where i am on my blog. Never did. Like,,on my email, i never put my name, just don't like it being out there. But she has been so open, and gotten so much great advice, and help,,and now it's shutting off? lololol...well,,,ok. I hate to see that, cause i really liked the blog,,,heck, i'm still missing hobojoe...

Ok,,on to something else.....now what?,,, OOOO YEAH!!!,,,Super bowl!,,,I didn't win that pot,,,an 8 did. Think my bro G had it. I was home watching a movie, but would switch over sometimes. That 8 came up right at the end. That safety at the beginning made the 2, 5, and 8 good numbers...lololol.. Got 2 movies being recorded today, then tonite, gotta record the Voice, missed it last nite after the ball game.

Bro B had rib eyes cooked, and i was sooo hungry for steak, i tried to eat some. It was so tender, but still wouldn't go down. Ended up upchucking just about all i ate, (few bites). It had gotten stuck kinda bad, cause later i ate a peanut butter sandwich,,and it hurt too. Lots came back up. Sorry about talking about that,,, I am gonna have the band loosened all the way as soon as i can, just never gonna work for me. That tiny bit of fill i got last time, created this problem, so there's just no way i can ever get to the 'right' spot. I can't drink during the nite either, i have to rinse my mouth out for the thirst. Otherwise it comes back up when i lay down. Woe is me,,,hahahaha,,,

I did get some walking in yesterday, even tho it was windy and cold, and cloudy. lol, Made m e walk faster. I'm wearing my r&r shoes, they work good for it. I got real close to little ducky, and that leg is messed up down by the foot. At that joint. It's not holding the foot up, is dragging it. Not good, i know. It bends all the joints down to that one. But it's still eating, flying, swimming,,,etc.

Got some more signatures on our petition yesterday, too. Makes 25 just in this neighborhood. And there were several not home. And a few that didn't sign. Making progress.

Ok, outa here, yall tc, and

This, That, and the Other

Not sure how much super bowl i'll watch, just want to know the ending score...lololol...want my 9. I've found movies on all day, otherwise. Recording 3, gosh, nearly ran out. Have one left after last nite. There's a Stephen King coming on at 7 pm,,might watch that one. Hate to miss the Voice, but,,,wth is it coming on after the ball game? I'm going to bro Bs house for some of it.

Called my sis N yesterday and got an answering machine,,well ok,,,thot she had gotten the new one and hooked it up....Tried her cell, didn't get that either, so,,later tried the house one again,,,same thing,,answering machine.
When she called me back later, there's NO answering machine!!! Now, wth is going on???,,,Still doing it today. I told her to call it from her cell, check it out. Then call the phone company tomorrow.

Saw the little duck yesterday, and it's still hopping, but good. Saw it fly into the water once, when the others did, so the only thing it can't do is walk on that one leg. I don't know why i never see chicks,,from any of them. Years ago, used to see baby geese (whatever they're called,,,) but not any more. There's so many predators i guess they don't make it, or even the eggs.

When i went out to Ns house, we walked down to her chicken pen, only 4 hens left, so she could put fresh water in for them. OMG,,,it stunk so bad, just from 3 days. Sometimes during certain weather, things sour, and this had. She said she still wasn't getting eggs, then looked and there were 3,,,lololol. They're putting on new feathers and look so good, even the rooster,,not one feather any more....lololol. She said it sleeted early today! Not here tho. She's 10 miles West.

Today is sure a stay-in day. Wish i had a pot of stew, or chili. Don't even have the makings, so,,,i'll eat what i have. S gave me so much yesterday, i still have 2 or 3 meals left. OOOO YEAH,,,she gave me some 16 bean soup!!! OOKKKK. Need to make some cornbread,,which i do have the mixes.

Hey, We're Back in Winter

Where is our rain?,,,, all this weather forecasting,, HUH!! I did see one that showed how much was predicted, and for here,,,,zero!!! lolol,,,All around showed at least a little, but,,,,here,,,,ZERO,,, Got it right once.

I didn't make it out to the park yesterday to check on the little duck but to answer one,,there is a park attendant, but i'm afraid he might just do away with it,,,that's why i haven't said anything. As far as i can tell, there's no fishing line or hook on it, and i can get pretty close. It eats and swims and flies, so i'm for just leaving it alone. It does get tired and lays down when it's on the bank. But others do too. lol.

Lots of bloggers didn't post yet, today. Miss em. I really didn't want to, seems like there's nothing to say, just rambling. When i used IE for blogs, i started getting a pop up window, saying blogger wouldn't work right with IE any more. Since i had Chrome on here already, was no problem to switch. I used to have Firefox and IE, but i looked up the comparisons of the 3, and Chrome was 1st, then IE, Firefox last, so i took FF off, put Chrome on. Speed was my main choice,,of course. Heck, they are all so competitive, they keep up on all of them with improvements.

I think the front is just now cooling us off, earlier i had to turn the heat down, now i'm getting chilly, need to turn it up.

Wish TV would do something about weekends,,,from Fri. on, thru Sun. i either leave it off, or watch movies. I record them, so i always have some. Plugged one in last nite, and i had already watched both of them, on that tape. One was about the kid doing a journal,,can't think of the name, and the other was Avatar. Guess it was ok but sure wouldn't want to watch it again. Don't know how that got mixed in with the ones i haven't watched, but it's not now,,,lol. That's something i need to do today,,,check the movies on,,see if i want any.

Football Time!

Bro B called a bit ago, and asked if i wanted a number for a 200.00 pot. YES!!!,,I drew a 9. 10 numbers, 20.00 each. Pays for end of game score. For yall that don"t know how this works,,you add the 2 scores, then take the right side number. 27+12=39,,,,MY 9!! Wish me luck! lololol. He also said his oldest son is playing a football game tomorrow in Marble Falls,,,He is sooo good. Might go. It's some kind of league thing. He made the only score in their last game. He told them at 1/2 time, pass it to ME,,so they did, 4 times in a row, with him catching them all, gaining, then scoring. Love to watch him play. Stupid coach in high school never used him right. He jumps like a deer too, lol.

That little duck is still hopping on one leg, saw it yesterday. I had high hopes, but not so much now.

Going out to Ns house later, haven't been out there in a while. Great weather to be outside. Got 4 more signatures on the petition yesterday, in the neighborhood. Haven't heard back from our game warden yet. And i did call again, left a voice mail. No telling how far a territory he works, so it might take a while to look at it.

A house right on the edge of Llano, burned yesterday, but the worst was, it was just about fully engulfed before it was seen. Out where it was. I feel so bad for them, not home, everything burning. Horrible! When i was in the 3rd grade, our house burned but almost everything was gotten out, not burned. I could see the smoke from the school. Knew it was our house because of the huge oak tree there. That was so horrifying to me, that even after i grew up, if i wasn't home when i heard the fire siren, i would rush there. Now i have scanners. We had that siren until the fire dept. starting using their own scanners, and tones to call.

Got my oatmeal made for lunch, so, yall tc, and

All Duckies,,Not in a Row

DSCF0007DSCF0008

Never tried fishing like THAT!  Well, getting there to do it,,,

DSCF0009DSCF0010

Jojo, these are the little ducks, hope somebody can identify them,,,I can’t find them in my bird book.  I watched a long time yesterday, and was close, but I never saw the one that was crippled the day before.  Sooo hope it got ok.  It never put it’s foot down at all, the day before.  Hopped on one, but seemed to swim ok.

Both bros came by this morning, so this is gonna be short.  Also, it was after 3 am before I went to sleep last nite.  Think that calls for a nap!

Need to do a little research on “applied” right of way, here in TX.  It’s kinda  like a grandfather clause.  If a trail, road, whatever, has been in use for a long time, no one can shut it off, even the property owner.  Was told it held up in most cases when someone tried to shut off one.  That would definitely help us,,,  Bro G has almost 100 signatures,,, and I found 2 men that are gonna be tremendous help.  I’m going by and talk to a former city councilwoman that loves to buck the system, and see if we can get her on our side. 

Ok gone for today,,yall tc, and

Restrictions,,,

Gosh, i get off into something else and get lost in it. lololol. Was looking into this new Google stuff, including blog. That's how i forgot i hadn't done one yesterday. I didn't follow my routine, and left out that step. Didn't even know it til way late, so i just didn't do one. Almost did it again. Read on one about spam stuff, and that's what i was looking into. I don't seem to get any on my blog, but the blocker had some. So i guess it's working good, huh? I'm open to all, no word verification, (hate it) and still not being bothered with spam.

Out at the park yesterday, there was one of the loons?,, little black birds with tails about an inch long, stay on the water a lot. Well anyway, one of them couldn't walk on one leg. It hopped along on the bank eating, so i spent a lot of time watching it, to see if it could swim, and yes, it did. They all took off into the water, but i don't think this one flew, think it walked, but i walked over there to be sure it wasn't down low on the bank. It was in the water, so i hope it'll be ok.

Ok,, gonna warn ya, if anybody! uses that F word in my comments, i will ban them. I haven't seen that on these blogs til yesterday. NOT the place. And that's how i feel about it. As kids we got our mouths washed out with soap if we even said HECK. loolool.. I told my kid's friends that that word hurt my ears, and they didn't use it any more, around me. I'm sure my kids used all kinds of words i didn't, but they had enough respect to not do it around me. I didn't use them, to set an example. If i say it, then you can,,,lololol Yep, around the bars, you're gonna hear lots of bad words, and i just let them go over my head, tuned them out.

Someone was talking about commercials,,i hate them too, most of em. I pick my book up and read during them, all except one. I love that one,,the little green geiko lizard. And i will watch most of the super bowl ones, online. All time fav on those was the giant armadillo. Then the Bud team of Clysdales,,with the colt. They have done it again,,passed the volume thing for commercials,,,wonder if it will work this time? I remember way back, it was done, and they never got lowered,,,so,,,,guess we can hope,, HA! HA!

It's after 1 pm and i'm still not out of my robe. lololol.. No hurry, not going anywhere,,,maybe later, to check out that little bird. I need to look those up in my bird book,,

Ok,,enough outa me,,yall tc, and
