New VCR/DVD Combo

Going back.  Messed with it for hours yesterday, thot I had it after bro B came over and re-hooked it up right, but,,NOOO,  didn't record a thing!  So,,this morning, I'm back on it, and OMG,,read a little line in the book,,saying :  this unit won't record without an external tuner!!  My fault, didn't know tunerless,,,meant no tuner in the unit,,,just thot it didn't need one. 

Yep, it's boxed up waiting on return instructions, old one hooked back up so I can record an hour tonite.  So, back on a new one now.  Woe is me,,,sob sob,,,

I know yall are laughing,,,lololol.  Our radio shack is closed for some reason, or I would go see if they had any.  It was yesterday, too.

I've worked up an huge appetite now.  All that overuse of brain power.

My new neighbor,,Paul, has the place to the East looking so good.  He's mowed and plans on putting in a garden.  I told him good,,,bring in some rabbits..  He also cut the dead tree on down, what was left.

I'm hearing calls all the time, about skunks around.  People seem to think they're rabid, just because they're out in the day.  They can barely see, so they appear to be acting strange.  And, it's their mating season too, so I guess they are acting unusual.  We raised one when I was young, and my Dad loved it,,,especially when he would answer the door with the skunk right behind him.  He was always one for practical jokes.

Well, that's it, again,,,not much, so yall tc, and

Work Going On Everywhere

 

Neighbors to my East, after finding water leaks after not being there.  They are still working on the inside.

Across the street to the West.  He’s having to replace all the water, sewer lines.

And,, the small beaver at the park.  I had never seen one but J had.  He had seen a group of babies right up at the bank below where he was sitting.

I haven’t been doing anything, and these pics are from a few days ago.

My new vcr came in yesterday, and doesn’t hook up like the old one.  J said it was now, but, haven’t been able to program it yet.  He’s napping in there, so I’ll wait til later.  Don’t need it tonite.

That’s all folks,, yall tc, and

Thx, New Members

Always happy to see new members.  I, too, have expanded the blogs I follow.   Feel free to comment,,,,lololol.

I just finished off a club sandwich, the leftover half from yesterday.  Way too big for one meal,,has some kind of seasoned fries that are the best I've ever eaten, that come with it.

Today on the Ustream site, Petespond, that I love, there were lions!  Male, female, and 2 cubs.  I had it on there, while I went thru all these catalogs I've gotten lately,,so I could eliminate them.  They sure pile up.  I especially like Collections,etc and Lakeside Collection.  Now, Dr Lenards and those kind, I kinda skim thru.

Nap time,,so yall tc, and

A New Day

And still nothing to blog about.  I did take J for a check up yesterday, and he was told to walk walk walk,,,Nothing else has helped.  Physical therapy and that machine seemed to do more damage than anything so he's walking.  Was told that was what it would take to get those nerves working around the scar tissure there in his lower back.  His next apt is in 6 weeks and we think he will be xrayed to see how it looks.   That will be 5 1/2 months.

I got up from a chair yesterday, here at home, and couldn't stand on my left leg!  Had a pinched nerve all the way down, and had to hold on to things to limp along.  I accused J of catching it from him,,lololol.  I took an aleve and after I had sat and watched tv for about 2 hours, it finally let up.  Wow.  It's there, and i'm being careful.  I think the squats I had been doing had to have caused this.  I'll give it a few days,  and hopefully, I can do those again.

That horse that was here a week or so ago, is still up at the end of the block in the neighbors pen.  J talked to the animal control man and he told him it had jerked loose from a trailer that weekend out at the rodeo arena, but we don't know where the people were from.  Assuming a long way, cause of it still being here,,,OR,,,maybe they thot it was a good way to get rid of it..lololol.  It's a beautiful paint.  Young looking, full of piss and vinegar.

While in F'burg, I made a quick stop at Walmart cause I  needed a new blind on one of my front windows.  I measured the blind, got one, and,,,,,it was an inch too short!!!!  I remeasured when I got home, and it still said 30" on the old one, and,,,the box said that, but the blind was 29".  Know what that means?  Means I fixed the old one.  And will take it back some day.

We brought back Church's Chicken, and I ate both pieces I was so hungry by then.  In my dinner.  He had one too.  The trip was on me,,my birthday gift for him,,coming up. 

Ok,,I know this is boring so yall tc, and

HooooHummmmm

Just nothing to write about,,, well, maybe one thing.  One of my son's cats was bitten a few days ago by a rattlesnake.  On his front foot, and it's still bad, despite the antibiotics.  He said there's a mobile home close by and he stays under it a lot so thinks that's where the snake was.  THEN he told me he had crawled all around under it looking for one of his cats once before. 

I've read or heard that coons over in the next county have been having distemper too.  Need to check and see if Jude is vaccinated for that.

I tried to play one of my recorded tapes couple of nites ago, and NOOO GOOO.  It rolled, it snowed,,it clicked, it clacked,,sooo,, yesterday, I ordered a new vcr/dvd combo.  And YES, I did clean it,  several times.  No help.  It will be here next week.  I looked and looked trying to find what I needed and wanted, and finally,,,i did.  It's a Toshiba and will do what I want.   It was 88.00, no tax or shipping.  And will serve my purposes long enough, (rest of my life).

N just called and asked if I had heard anybody reporting a fire out her way, and no, not.  She said there was a lot of smoke about 3 miles on past her, and I told her to call in.  I still haven't heard a word.

Lost Keys?

Meant to post this yesterday, after reading DDs blog.  A few weeks ago,,in a book I was reading, this man had to steal a car, a modern one, not an old one.  He took a tennis ball, cut a round hole in it to fit over the thing on the car door, held it on there with the hole around it, and hit the ball with his fist.  The locks popped open.  Ever since then, I've wondered if this will work, and J thinks it could, and said he would try it sometime, but he's not been able to.  SOOOOO,,,if any of yall wanna try it, let me know what happens?,,, This will drive me nuts til I know,,,lololol.

Think i'm gonna blow away today.   Wind gusts about 45 mph.  The rest of the dead tree is down,,,,toward the house on the E side, like the other part.

Gonna try this machine on Js back one more time, and just leave it for 15-30 minutes on low.  On the upper back.   The last time when it burned him, he had gone to sleep with it on, there, and when he woke up, it had moved over, directly on his spine, so maybe,,,that was the problem. 

Ok, yall tc, and

Just Lazing Around Today

Need to get into the shower,, but,,,heck, got all day.  Also, need to change my bedding,,,maybe later,,,

That Lotta Joy had me rolling again, today.  I've cooked steaks like that but never wrapped them in foil later.  HEY,,,don't mean to charcoal!! hahahahaha  Gotta be med rare.

On each side of me, the new neighbors are all working on their houses.  The ones to the E look like they tore most of the inside out,,after a water leak they didn't know about for a day or 2.  Maybe all the old carpet, and a lot of wood stuff,,,not sure what.

The ones on the W have so much to do,,,saw a man out yesterday digging a deep trench, maybe sewer line?,,, after taking most of the boards off the porch.  Every time I was up last nite, there were lites on inside.  After working that hard,,how did he stay up?   lololol.  About 4 AM,,,the whole house was lit up, could see it even thru the window coverings.  Confederate flags, mostly.  Don't care what they do as long as it's not dealing drugs like the last ones.

Yall tc and
