He Makes My Day,,,,

Was reading about people taking melatonin for sleep, over in Lotta Joy's blog.  Not too long ago, I was watching Dr Oz, and that topic was on there.  Throw it away!  Do NOT take any more.  I think you can look that up by going to DrOz.com.  It's amazing how we will take things because they are called "all natural" without another thot.  I have done the same.  I take several different vitamins and was told to, by my doctors.  Heart doc= fish oil.  Bone specialist=calcium.  Regular doc=multi vitamin.  Don't remember why the B12, and I also take Vit D because I'm never in the sun.

Does it make me more healthy?  lol, Who knows?

I've noticed ol BBC is here making comments.  Have yall noticed?   hahahahaha,,,he makes my day.  I go back and look a lot, just to see what he has to say... Keep it up, BBC,,,Need my daily laugh, (laughs).

Yesterday, I was in the park here in town.  I keep looking for the pelicans and across the river, where a big creek comes in,,,there were 3 different white birds...Some geese, one crane, and,,,sure enough, 2 pelicans.  All hanging out together.  I had to use my binoculars to be sure.  The rest of em, must be hanging out somewhere else on the river.

Did I mention that I recorded the Green Mile?  With the commercials, 4 1/2 hours.  I'll have to divide it, and ,,,how do you stop somewhere? 

Well, yall tc and

Been a Few Days

Just noticed how long it's been since I posted.  What do you do?,,,Nothing going on, so,,,????

Still warm, gonna change, nuff said about that.

Got my windows open, love to air the house out.  Running a fan at nite to sleep.

Anybody doing super bowl?  I'll probably go by bro Bs,,get in a pot or 2, make it a little interesting.

I use a silicon skin over my keyboard, and I wanted to order some more.  Spent hours trying to find one I could use, no luck.  They have to be long enough, wide enough?,,,So,,guess i'll try to wash this one.  Found the instructions on how to do that,,lol.  Then, was in there with my desk top, and OMG,,there was a package with another one in it.. lmao.  Not sure  if it's a used one or not, can't tell.  So maybe i'll wash both of them.  Not enough info on the package to order some more.  Sure keeps my keys from sticking, getting dirty.  A dell techo, told me he cleaned his with a hair dryer,,,run it til the sticky spot dries out, then dump it.  I did that, then ordered these skins, so it's still clean.

J started therapy today, will be twice a week for 4 weeks.  I think this will help a LOT.  She seemed to know exactly what he needed!  Sooo glad for him to get a good one.

Not Fishing Around Here,,,It's,,,

Rattlesnake grabbing time,,,, Both my bros planned on being out today, to gas some dens, but the folks out on the ranch had company.  Bros knew that would mean taking "guests" with them so they just decided to wait til another time.  Needs more sunshine too, and today is deep clouds.  No rain, of course.

Bro G came by this morning just about the time I was gonna eat breakfast, so that waited for a couple of hours. 

Gotta go to the store later, almost outa milk.  I think that's about all I need.  Picked up a couple of other things yesterday out at our new Alco.  Everybody's sure disappointed with that store, prices way too high.  I went because they're the only place in town that has my Iams cat food.   O yeah, that and my Charmin are still in my car! lol.  Got 3 more books at the library and couldn't carry everything, so left those 2.

The Green Mile was on last nite, and I almost watched it again.  I've seen it 2 or 3 times, but it's soooo good, you can never get enough.  It's up there with Forrest Gump.  J said he's never seen it, I told him to go rent it!

Ok yall, not sure when i'll bb, but I will, so tc, and

Nuff Said

I don't know why it's so hard to write, lately.  My days are the same,,it seems.  Anybody else feel like that?

Js doing great, and just comes by briefly now.  He's still got a long way to go, but is able to do more, (a little) each day.  He can help his Dad with paperwork at the shop, run errands, etc.  When he's at the shop, it's not unusual for him to sell some of the vehicles.  

I've been watching Idol,,again, but,,,just don't know about this season.  I DO NOT like the 2 female judges and can't  stand Nicci?,,, And also, there's so many I don't think can sing, and they let them go thru.  lol,,, I can just hear Simon's opinion...

Gonna say one more thing about politics and religion.  TO EACH HIS OWN.  I have respect for other's views, even if they are different than mine.  And I won't leave your blog, or whatever, because of them.  It's your right to have your own opinions.  I also won't argue with you about them.,,,OK,,enough said.

We are having our spring right now.  When that calendar says springtime,,not true, it's already summer time.  Spring is in Jan. here in TX,,,just wish we had the rain.  All that rain a week or so ago, did nothing for our rivers, or lakes.  We need the gullywashers like they are getting in Africa,,i watch UStream,,Pete's pond.  Love to see those animals coming there.  This is their rainy season, and they are getting it!

Wasted Time

I decided to change my "look" and did, so far so good,,right?,,BUT, couldn't figure out how to change the size of my font,,,,spent a LOT of time and it just wouldn't let me make changes.... Got a blank page every time.  After a lot of wasted time,,it finally hit me,,this is google, lots of stuff on blogger won't work in  my IE.  So here I went, took about a minute, and got what I wanted.  I just don't like blogger telling me I need to use google!!! or some of their features won't work,,,(which they don't).  I can make changes using google, and they will work in IE,,,strange huh?

I also don't like someone calling themselves,,,ANONYMOUS,,, jumping ME about my opinion on politics... BTW,,,yall need to read Lotta Joy's blog today,,,hahahahaha,,,, Happy Birthday,,,Robert E Lee!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

BBs tracking something down there,,,lol.  All I can say is,,,it has claws...Not a cat, they retract.  Not a fish,,no swishes,,,

I bought a german sheppard way back,,in the 60s and she grew up huge and gentle.  Took her out one night to teach her how to coon hunt which we did a lot of, back then.  It paid for our Christmases.  Spotted one way up in a tree and hubby wounded it, and it fell to the ground.,,, Here the dog went, running over wagging her tail,,,til that coon bit her on the nose...oooo mercy,,, made coons enemies the rest of her life.  We were riding around in a pickup one nite, out on a ranch, and eyes were spotted up a tree, so here we went.  She jumped out, made a circle around that tree and came back to the truck.  Hubby and friend spent an hour getting that whatever out, sure wasn't a coon.  I told em, listen to her next time.  If she could catch em, she killed em,,by one chomp.  Killed a skunk one nite, out there, and we made her ride back to town in the trunk.  She never did that again.  You didn't sic her on anything either, she went in for the kill.  She was the best dog in the world, with kids.  If they hurt her she licked em in the face,,,lol.  They didn't do it on purpose tho.

When she was 10 years old, someone here in town was walking around poisoning dogs, and she was the 3rd one.  That went on for quite a while, but I don't remember how many died that way.  They finally caught that old woman, just gave her a slap on the wrist!  I couldn't even let my youngest out, cause he put everything in his mouth.  Sure missed my dog tho.  Really really smart.

I think I need to enlarge the font a little more...Will get that done now,,hope yall make it ok today.,

PS,,after looking at it, it's fine.

Holiday?

How's this Monday morning for yall?  So far so good here.  Just got thru reading all my blogs, will try to get a little bit posted on mine.

Wanna thank Luci and Loree for taking off the verify thingy,,,I don't comment if I have to do those.  And I don't comment on blogs that have no reply place.  When questions are asked, I like to see an answer too, even from other people.  But,,i do read them.

Whatever stuff I had is gone,,,felt good yesterday and today too.  Wasn't the flu, was just in my head.  And no fever.  So far, flu shot seems to be working.  My son won't take them, cause he says every time he did, he ended up with the flu.  Who knows?  I took the pneumonia vaccine, and started having it,,,lol.

I haven't seen the big buck out back,,look when I think of it.

Seems there's lots of businesses closed today,, not just city and county, and government.  Had to turn my tv off at 9, sure wasn't interested in the inauguration.  I avoid politics. Always told people in bars,,no talk of politics or religion.  Did I ever tell you I bar tended for a while?  Loved it.  It was during an unemployment time, and I was paid in cash.  I drew that for 11 months,,didn't really want to find another job until I had to.  After working for 18 years, I had a long vacation...

That was when I got into home health care, and loved it.  After those 11 months.  Went back to bookkeeping later, to make a living, but ended back up in HHC, but with a better position that paid really well.  lololo,,, til they laid us all off.   Another long unemployment, then retirement.

Haven't seen the pelicans lately.  I was hoping they would stay for the winter, and come back next year.

Did yall read Lotta Joy's, Witless Relocation Program, blog today...hahahahaha,,,She hit it right on the head...The link in on mine so go check it out...

Good Morning

Good morning,, one and all,,,hope you're all well and happy today.

I still stumble around using this newer blogger.  Took me like, 30 minutes to add a new blog to my list of ones I follow...  Does anyone use the google+?    I haven't even figured this one out,,don't know if I want to try that one.  I never remember how I did it the last time...HEY,,my memory IS improving, not taking that statin drug for cholesterol.

I noticed last week that numbers just popped out,,,always could do that til I started those drugs.  Phone numbers,,,whatever,,they're there.  J asked me for 3 different ones last week and they just were there.  Wooohoooo.  So what,, if my liver is filling up with that stuff,,,lol.  my memory is back.  Names?,,just ask, I know em,,, Amazing.  Now, what was I talking about?  O yeah,, that.

My niece gave me this body lotion for Christmas, Olay, New Nauveau, that is the most delicious smelling stuff I've ever used.  I use it just on my hands, but you can still smell it hours and hours later.  Good thing it smells so good, cause it stays.  It's in the purple tube, in case yall want to check it out...

Haven't seen that big buck out back yet.  But,, the neighbor has been working on a big trailer out there in the street.  Sure wish J would buy that property.  Best view in town, looks down on the river and bridge, lites of town.  I see most of that too, but just that little bit on up the hill is a lot better.

I think I have enough movies recorded now....With some new tv shows back on, not using them so much, so getting a big back up.  Still, on Fri, Sat, and Sun,,need one each nite.  Why do the networks leave off those 3 nites?

Took a bite of something a couple of days ago, and felt this huge thing in my mouth.. Good thing I didn't chomp down on it,,lol.  It was this huge filling out of a bottom jaw tooth, think it WAS the tooth...lol.  Not sure what i'm gonna do about it, just leave it for now.  The tooth isn't hurting or anything, and it's the last one back.  Gosh, I hate to have one pulled.

I'm so sick of hearing about Lance Armstrong,,never liked him, and darn sure don't now.  He has a black hole where a soul should be.  What I can't stand, is how this will hurt his children.  I don't get OWN here, and I so miss the Oprah show.  Loved it.  On one of her last ones I had, she brought back and gave an update on people from 5 years before.  Some of those had broken my heart, so it was so good to hear and see the update.

Ok, enough meandering,,so yall tc, and
