Im Still Around

Still the same ol, same ol. But gonna try to do a new post on here.

Been staying in, mostly. Its a wonder i dont have cabin fever haha. Have lots to occupy time after i do my thing on the laptop. And one of them is a nap,,, and its about that time....

I check into facebook several times a day. See what everybody is up to. About the only way i can keep in touch now. Nobody uses the phone any more, to stay in touch.

My great, OMG, granbaby is due on the 21st, a boy. Didn't think this would ever happen. Bet he's gonna be one of those red-headed, blue eyed kids. A friend has a grandchild that is soooo beautiful. Most unusual coloring, really rare. But this one could be like that too.

The shower was sooo fun. It was called a tie-dye baby shower, and you took something white or light, to tie-dye. Some beautiful creations. First time ive ever done it, but was told it was one of the best.

My dryer quit on me about a week or so ago, and i found one at a garage sale last Friday, bought it, got it delivered and hooked up, and NOTHING!!! Well, it ran, but no heat. I was told by them that it had been working prior to the sale, so i think something came loose. Maybe my bro will look at it. I know the ones having the sale, and i believe them. It was moved twice,, once there, then here.

Im still recording movies and some other stuff. Sometimes when i see the movie i dont watch it, just delete and go to another one. Had 2 to do, today. So about 5 nites a week when theres nothing on TV, thats what i do. I like a lot of the shows about Alaska too.

Cleaned my AC filters today. Let it go about 10 days. Like to do them once a month. By doing it on the first, i can remember, haha.

My doc talked me into doing some overdue tests, but i called and canceled the bone density one today, would take almost an hour, and since im still having bad pain in the hip, leg, just not gonna do that now. Will later. Did one about 12 years ago, and was great. Got a pneumonia vaccination, just on time. Theres 2 to do now. Got one,,, guess im good.

Just because im not doing a blog every day, doesnt mean im not reading them. Do that every day. Its just nothing new to write about, YET. haha. Ill get there.

Summer Blues

Dog days are here... Temps gonna be over that 100 now, for a while. I'm staying in almost all the time, short trips for supper and groceries, that's all. I entertain myself with internet stuff, jigsaw puzzles, movies, books, naps,,, lol.

My 2 brothers and i went for a joy ride yesterday. All around our side of Lake Buchanan, just to see water in it now. Just 7 feet below normal,, amazing! With the El Nino staying through the winter like they are predicting, it will fill up. AND, Texas is no longer in a drought.

Having trouble with flea control on Jude. I have my last application on the table now, waiting to catch him going out. Need to look into ordering some more.

Boiled 2 eggs to make chicken salad. Put the eggs on and forgot, so i hope they are done. I use relish instead of pickles chopped,,, easier. lol.

Just got up and made the C salad, eggs were WELL done.... Not sure if i want that or the red beans and rice left over from yesterday. Almost noon, and i'm hungry, so i'll have to decide pretty quick.

Just Not Interested in Doing This

Has it really been a month since i did a blog? There's just nothing to say, except same ol, same ol.

Had injections Tuesday in my spine again, she put 2 in from 2 directions. Not sure if it's gonna work or not. I'm still on pain meds, which i HATE. Can't sleep at nite because i can't find a comfortable position (without hurting).

See what i mean? Nothing new to say!

Hey i do have one good thing to say! Tons of rain up above Lake Buchanan, and it's going up about 9 or 10 feet. Will come up to about 1006, full is 1020. or so.

Well, that's all folks, tc, and

Tree Gone,,,:(((

Way too hot in the afternoons now.








My brother hasn't been here yet, but i told him to do whatever it needed. It's not leaking, so i'm ok 'til it's fixed.

Taking the bus over to Walmart to get these new glasses adjusted, the frames are soooo out of whack, or did i already say this....Hard to read.

Staying in as much as possible, can't take the heat. Not sure how hot it got yesterday but i think past the mid 90s.

Well, no news, so yall tc, and

Got it Done

The adjuster showed up a few days ago, super nice man, looked it all over, wrote me a check that day. Wow. He added on a lot more to be sure everything was covered! When i told him my new sewer line was right by the tree, he even added on 200.00 just in case i had to call the plumber to fix a leak. Everybody is asking,,, " who is your insurance company?"  lol.

The tree service came yesterday and cleaned it all up, totally. They even cut a broken limb down out back and took it too. They left about a 4" stump, because of the sewer line. I hope a tree will grow from the roots left. Gosh, i really need a shade on the West side. I'll get pics later today.

Went out to nephew's for a bbq for his daughter that just graduated. Lots of people, lots of food. Pork, beef, chicken. YUMMMM.

Still in pain all the time if i move. I can limp along carefully, and do what i have to. Not seeing the doc until 7-7!!! The MRI is 6-24, and whatever is needed, let's GET IT DONE!!!

My son's leg has improved enough that he walks on it with a brace that is adjustable, and his body brace. He is driving too. Carefully. Still have high hopes that leg will go back to normal. He's doing therapy, on his own. The one he was sent to was not the one he needed. Or so he said.

I told BB he had already named his cat,,, Damn Cat,,, DC for short. Remember that movie from years ago?

Well yall tc, and

Tree's A Problem

My bro said he wasn't about to touch it. If it's cut in the wrong place it will fall against the house and do more damage. Got a call in to a tree service,,, mercy!

 Talked to my insurance company and they're gonna go ahead and send someone to survey the damage. I'm  hoping i can get my deductible absorbed by one of them.

Just got the call to schedule my MRI,, 6-3. Now, if i can  just do it. Swore i'd never do one again, now here i go. Well, gonna try.

I think the heat is on the way. No rain in forecast, 90s coming up. That tree made a lot of difference, shaded the west side. Really hate it's gone.

That's all i've got, folks, Just not much to blog about.

Wind Damage


Slept thru this, but when i got up during the night, i could see some of it. Thot it was just a big limb blown off. News said wind gusts of 61, 60 mph. Hate losing this one, shaded almost the whole west side of the house. 






















I called my insurance company and was told to go ahead and have my bro look and do an estimate. He just now showed up, been in Ausin, and said probably not much to fix it.

Don't even know how much it rained,,,, lol.
