SUNDAY 2012-2-12 WELCOME HOME, DEAR HEARTS, WELCOME HOME Get your buns in here right now… It is cold, miserable, nasty out! Lolol Unless you count the sun and snow. Well, we DID have a few minutes of sun today and it got up to 32 today. (When I woke up overnite, it was only 8.) I ran out (read trundled) to the mail box… I did some packing today…lol First of all I got all the papers and junk together to mail back to Amazon. Wrapped and taped the box… and out I went. And, wonder of wonders, it fit/slid right in. Woo hoo, bout time this fiasco went right. Well, I had another package to wrap and ship. And since I had all the stuff out… tape, wrapping paper, you all know the drill… I decided to do some more packaging. Lolol Lordy, what a mess! The paper was lopsided… had a small gap when I got to the end of wrapping… I used tape, more tape and then some more. Tape has all kinds of wrinkles. I smoothed them, the wrinkles, down as best I could. Lolol Now I have this elongated box…gaps… lopsided paper…and yards of shipping tape… all the above with wrinkles. And to think I come by this wrapping ability naturally! Sheesh, what more could a person ask. Not counting the Valentine teddy bear, who is sooooo cute, I have another mouth to feed… I think… Sheesh again. I was up overnite… Delilah, momma cat, had been sleeping in the lil dogs cubby hole. Well, over nite, I woke to the weak sound of a kitten crying. Oh, no! OK, so I roll out… Delilah wants out. I accommodate. Delilah wants back in.. OK… she climbs back into the cubby hole under the desk… then I decided to look at/see kitten. Momma has it covered. OK… so I’ll wait. I go back to bed. When I get up, I look right away to see how many mouths might be hiding under the desk. Nothing! Now, I either have a kitten hidden in the house somewhere or it didn’t survive. I’m hoping for survival. What else? I am ankle deep in torn up newspapers and cardboard again. Anybody want a dog? Two ???? I have 4 in case anybody might be interested! Lolol Oh, I should add there are chewed up containers running around back here too. Do you suppose I can get some ‘brownie points’ for my halo? Do brownie points count when it comes to haloes? Just asking! or http://www.eons.com/photos/photo/855847-Whining-sign-2 I decided I’d better drag this sign out again. I hid it for a while because I was going broke. Now, I need it as a reminder! Lolol Another thing… I found something to send to the Marv. I have to do some work but I think it’s gonna be neat. He’s always been decent to me… kind… sweet natured… and rotten to the core. Lolol I love doing gotcha’s on him! Any way, I it won’t kill me to be nice once in a while, but it is a strain! Lolol When I’m finished with the item, I’ll take a pic and give everybody a heads up… lolol …or not… I’m sure I’m forgetting Sumfin. I just can’t think of what it might be. Take care all of mine. Go in safety always. Remember to enjoy the sun on a winter day. Sun shine is worth its weight in gold. Many hugs, much love and lots of lafter every day… meems
2012-2-9 THURSDAY WELCOME HOME, DEAR HEARTS, WELCOME HOME! Sheesh! What a day! I guess the heldoctor fly over must have seen Sumfin. Rumor has it that there were cops all over the place down below me last nite. Good heavens, I miss all the fun up here. Seems like they picked up a bunch of prostitutes while they were at it. And then I finally, finally got the CD Mahjong thingy straightened out… I hope. Seems like the two I got were for DVD’s. Never said anything about that on the cover. Cover said PC CD… Doesn’t that mean a regular puter and not a DVD player? Well, I learn Sumfin new everyday! So a guy named Jonathan (he sounded so cute) helped me. Now, all I need do is wrap the wrong ones up and send them back. Jonathan gave me the link to order one which should work. All I need do now is sit back and wait. Then today, I find a package out on the front porch. From Godiva’s? Now what? It wasn’t ticking (athank you Sherri). I bring the box in the house… Godiva’s? Does this mean some body out there wants me to get naked? Sheesh, what a vision that conjures up in my mind! Any way, I gots a Valentines present from my secret admirer! The cutest little teddy bear. Him wearing a red tam and jacket. Him also got a red bag full of chocolates. I guess I can get naked for those kinds of goodies. I already have a name for him… or http://www.eons.com/photos/photo/960065-2-12-Godiva-Bear-2-8 And then there’s the rotten Shadow… He is eating me out of house and home! I wish I had a tenth of the energy that rotten critter uses in five minutes… when he’s on a roll, he’s on a roll (read bagel)! He grown a lot and he still has more growing to do. or http://www.eons.com/photos/photo/960063-2-12-Shadow-2-7-2 I was sound asleep this morning about 0530 hours or so. Shadow decides it’s time for me to roll out… he wants to go out side. OK, I understand that part. What he doesn’t seem to get is that the Pyggs doesn’t like it when he, Pyggs is disturbed! Long suffering meems feels the same way. Let me sleep! or http://www.eons.com/photos/photo/960061-2-12-doggie-bone Pyggs has his new fuzzy bones in the bed. Pyggs is actually only supposed to have one but he’s gone around collecting them. They, the bones, are buried in the covers. NO, Shadow is not allowed to touch Pyggs’ bone/s! I had the awfullest growling and fussing and critters tap dancing on various parts of meems’ body! I was pinned under the covers. Bellowing ‘’cut it out’’… get off me! Quit! Sheesh! I look like I’ve been beaten with a ball bat. I have bruises on my bruises. Then last nite, I started reading one of my books on line. One of the Dragon Riders of Pern series. Finished the book this morning… The plot was ok but involved time travel. As we all know, I do not do ‘time’ sequences well. However, I stayed with it and the story ends with everybody safe and sound… I think. I’m still trying to unravel all the time travel convolutions. At least, I ended up on the last page at the same time the co-authors did. And sometime last evening, I watched/listened to a dissertation on Homer’s Ulysses (the Odyssey) and his travels. Many moons ago, I questioned the part involving the Cyclops… The one eyed giant whom Ulysses blinded and then escaped back to his ship. Well, my opinion and reasonings have been vindicated.… Yes, the Cyclops could have been a volcano. I also have opinions about the ‘river’ Scamander rising and chasing the hero across the plain at Troy… A tsunami? I was told “no†many moons ago by a feller from the Classics Dept. Gee, I wonder what happened to Crete when Thera blew?... Now known as Santorini. Just asking… Right now, I am watching the History channel’s Hercules… Just maybe….? Time for me to get going… Take care all of mine. Go in safety always. Remember to stay tuned for the next great events… lolol Many hugs, much love and loads of lafter every day. Meems
2012-2-07 What day is it? Wait a minute! Oh, it’s Tuesday! At least that’s what the thingy in the corner says. Would my puter lie to me? Would my lovely green eyes ???? Probably! Lolol WELCOME HOME, DEAR HEARTS, WELCOME HOME. Where should I start? Maybe out at the mail box a couple of days ago. I’m out there looking thru the mail and listening for my flyguys and gals… them BBSBs. Instead of my flybabies, I hear a definite buzzing! Oh yeah, the transformer! The transformer thingy sounds like a herd of bees stirring up a tornado. Now, trust me, I don’t like it when transformers start talking to themselves. Bad things can happen…Well, I call the Elec Co. Dispatcher there is a sweetheart… I had him giggling and then I asked him if he was interested in older women… He cracked up, then he says, if he wasn’t married, he might take me up on it. Woohoo! I cracked up then… lolol he did a gotcha on me! Anyway, two guys came out and grounded a line that crosses the road to the burned out property. At least that’s what I think he did. Both guys had been out here before. One to take a tree down … the other had been here doing the work setting a 2nd security lite out back. I tormented the heck out of them. They checked everything and said I was in good shape. I was still getting static on tv in living room but I was just happy that the thingy out front wasn’t going to explode. OK, so I come inside… argue with the manufacturing company again, yet, still! I ordered and received a Mahjongg cd. (I am addicted) Was on sale for 9.99 and shipping… I try to down load it..it wants an activation code… I don’t have one. Well, ratz! OK, so I start sending emails… Company can’t find a record of me/ lolol Well, I betcha they have one now. I played with the co. for three days. Then I finally found a number for Amazon.com. They’re gonna send me another copy of game… and I am to send the incomplete one back to them… So after getting the CD thing started in the right direction, I was just going to get busy on the News… Twas not to be. The dogs were in… all sound asleep and safe in our world. I had my favorite snacks at hand and in my mouth. Can of pop nearby. I’m all set! Concussion wave hit the north east corner of the house. Woke the dogs. And I cleared my chair! That was an explosion! Have I mentioned that I don’t like explosions? Well, I checked the best I could without going outside… was 2330 hours and really, really dark. I called Richmond… They sent a trooper out to check the area and today I had a heldoctor up there doing the routine. It was either a meth lab in the area or a sonic boom. Consensus being that it was a meth lab blowing. You city folk have no idea the fun you are missing… lolol One of the electricians suggested that I move into town. He says:â€you’re out here all alone†Yup, I am and I ain’t a movin’ back into town… been there; done that! Sheesh! And then this evening, another weird thing. I’m closing the bedroom window and spot the moon rising from the far side of the mountain. It was huge like a harvest moon! But it was reddish orange in color! How beautiful! I took a couple of pix but the mirage image did not transfer well to thru the camera. I took pix anyway. This is not the first time I’ve seen a mirage up here on the mountain. or ="/images/members/2012/2/7/8/4/84026682314108579014_610w.jpeg" title=  or http://www.eons.com/photos/photo/959394-moonrise-mirage-2-12-2-7 We’re supposed to have snow moving in… Temperature layers at this time of the year seem to have something to do with these mirages. The distortions are caused be the trees between the cam and the moon. Guess that’s it for now… Take care all of mine…go in safety always. Remember it’s always possible to see strange things even tho you might be sober. Or Sumfin… lol Many hugs…much love and lots of lafter every day. meems
2012-2-03 WELCOME HOME DEAR HEARTS, WELCOME HOME I am starting to hate this new WORD… It absolutely will not stay were I put it. Sheesh! And I was in such a good mood when I sat down! I think I found it… maybe! I’m writing this in indigo… a most useful color… keyboard and palette both. Ok Lets get started here… I think I am grumpy again… And I’ve been a baaaaad girl again… I went back to the smell good/make up cat last nite… Oh dear, I ordered two pair of those light up heart shaped earrings… and a few other things. I’ve decided sometimes that a few bad things can be a good thing. I even ordered two pair of jimmies… solid color tops – plaid bottoms. Lolol Another oh dear,… lolol It just dawned on me neither pair of jammies colors match the earrings… lolol Jammies are purple and coral. If you reread the above you will notice the word jimmies … This is what the puter changed my “jammies†into. Maybe I should feel sorry for the puter… It disagrees a lot with my writing style. The old version finally gave up/in and wrote what I types. Lolol Gosh, I just noticed the sun has set and it is totally dark out there now. I got outside for a few earlier today. It was absolutely gorgeous! Partly cloudy, breezy and all of 68o. I took the cam out with me this time… Easter flowers are opening. Have purple crocus and flowering quince budding out and some are already open. I am really sweating the fruit trees tho… opening buds – snow and ice are not companionable. We had a very hard frost cover this morning… at sun up, the melt was running off the roof. or I have what they call ‘wet springs’ out in the front yard. Wet springs are the underground waters running down from the hills. The springs come alive after a lot of rain. Lolol The front yard has several… Ya talk about your spongy ground. Can you say wet slippers? Lolol I left foot prints out there today. or http://www.eons.com/photos/photo/958334-2-12-Easter-flowers-2-3 Another thing… I discovered a hole in the bank on the far side of the road. Sumfin has moved in. Hole isn’t round… it’s kind of oval in shape. Big as a baseball, maybe. I saw claw marks and feetsie prints in the softened dirt. Nothing clear yet, but I am gonna keep an eye out… Could be a ferret, skunk, wood rat, ground squirrel, chipmonk or some other kind of young wild critter. Back to the cam for a minute… I tried using the program I installed from the disc. Sheesh! It took me forever to find them. They downloaded correctly I guess but they didn’t end up where I intended them to go. Have I mentioned lately that I HATE puters? …. Lolol Maybe I have. What else up here? One of the good neighbors stopped while I was out front. He was just coming back from the family homestead. Somebody in the area has stolen almost every thing movable from the old place but he did salvage a few things. He had a trailer full of old/antique/hand made plows. The wood was in bad shape but the metal parts were fantastic. Sort of pitted from the passage of time and they were covered with rust. But you can still see the hand crafting smithy work on each blade. Heavy duty plows which had been worked by a team of mules. I was impressed and tickled to death just to be able to place my hands on them. So beautiful and so well crafted. My ‘good’ neighbors are such wonderful people. Then, there’s Anna… I called the other day to check in… nobody home. But I did leave a message that all was ok at my end. Was everything ok with her end? A few hours later, I get this call… Anna’s end ok … she checked to be sure before she called me… lolol See, I told you! She is a bad influence! I cracked up. She says I bring out the worst in her! Lolol I, in turn, blame everything on El, her hubby! I got some more books for my Kindle. Now if I could find a few minutes time to sit quietly and read… I got the new edition of the Reader’s Digest. And another book. I really went beserk yesterday… Earrings, jimmies and a book! Aw, the heck with it… If puter wants to spell jammies, jimmies, so be it. Just so you know… lolol Oh, and I’ve been given another name by my friends… The hillside harlot! It’s amazing what a 75 year old can do when she puts her mind to it… lolol Meems is being bad again… but I AM in a much better mood! Take care all of mine…go in safety always. Remember to wear boots when walking thru the wet springs. Boots help… Many hugs, much love and lots of lafter everyday. Meems

Welcome home, dear hearts, welcome home!
Listen up Brats! Question here… Do you kids get extra fly time hours for rattling my coffee mug? Sheesh! I’m sitting here minding my own business, and I get buzzed! Talk about rattling the roof tops at the same time… lolol
Well, I get out of my chair, do my broken field running routine down the hall to the kitchen… Hang a right and head for the side door…Fling the two doors open and land on the side porch… That brat is already out of sight but I can still hear him/her!
Since by this time, I am totally out of doors, sans coat, I decide to trundle out to the mail box… Beautiful day out… sun shining…all of 70o, lite breeze.. Wowser, wonderful!
OK, so I get the mail… start staggering back toward the house… (Staggering because I have the ‘swim head’… ) I look up and I have BBSBs flying in from every direction… lolol I cracked up! I got flashed and didn’t even need to show an ankle… I waved and threw kisses and waved and hugged at them all… I curtsied when I got flashed… And one of them BBSBs dropped to a lower alt as it went over… No contrail tho, air at that alt is really dry. Thanx sweetheart! I enjoy the visits.
OK, I am gonna be grumpy here for a minute… I am getting sick and tired of the news media announcing in bold headlines that a military person has killed, maimed, damaged or otherwise harmed the public, public lands, etc.!
The media does the same when cops err… I am not advocating ‘not’ letting the public know but I am demanding the media tones it down some.
What I see happening is the bad mouthing/degrading/ruining of our service people! Does anybody out there remember what happened during the Nam Era? I am tired of the rich/powerful/egocentric Wash DC idiots and the news media blaming our military for their own (DC Idiots) decisions. I am tired of hearing half baked lies falling from the lips of the people who were elected to take care of our nation.
NOW, if these half baked’s were to plop their butts out there ‘in country/downrange/front lines’, the world might just be in better shape! As it is, our young men and women are the ones being put in harms way! They are the ones who have and are giving their all to keep us, the American People, safe..
While I am at it, let me announce that I will NOT give up my .38 snubnose, my 9 shot .22 revolver, my .22 rifle nor will I give up my 30 year old BB gun/pistol! I will chose whether I will or will not have a safe and sterile abortion! I will make my own choices as long as they (the choices) do not interfere with others rights.
I am tired of people (read men) asking me if I am a lesbian. Why don’t I have a man? Is it my right to make the choice to live with/without a man? I have many male friends and many female friends. I have no lovers at the moment! The one I did have, I had to give up.
Try this for a scenario… I was in the Farm store in town… I was at the register checking out… The guy running the register looked at me and asked if I was a lesbian…down here if you are female, you MUST have a man… Now, there were several men in line behind me… you could have heard a staple drop on a shag rug! I cracked up… I laffed till I couldn’t breath!
My reply when I caught my breath? “I’ve had two husbands, several fiancés and 9 million lovers! (give or take one or two) I’m not about to take on another one to housebreak and train!†I do learn!
Well, the men behind me started laffing and the asker turned purple! I paid my bill and left. The guys were still laffing as I went out the door.
Lesson number one: Don’t ever try to embarrass me in public. Lesson number two: Don’t ask if you don’t want to hear the answer.
Meems is being bad!
I’m still trying to get the puters to work… all I have left to do is download/upload… whichever… all of my music. No, I didn’t steal them, I have all the CDs. And then, there’s the catalogs… Sheesh! Todays’ cat is selling smell goods and make up. I haven’t worn makeup in years… and I have a cupboard full of smell goods. However, while I was paging thru the book, I saw a pair of earrings that I like a whole lot…
Earrings are clear red heart shaped drops… they lite up! Wowser… for sumfin like $4.00 I could buy me a pair of flashing hearts to wear in my ear lobes… Hmmmm… they even (according to the descriptors) have an off/on switch. Ah yes, from the ridiculous to the sublime in one easy paragraph… lolol
Now that I have let off some steam about the ‘idiots’, I think I feel better. Lolol
Take care all of mine…go in safety always. Remember that each of us has a dark side. Just try to keep it under control… Oh yeah!
Many hugs, much love and lots of lafter. meems
2012 EMOM’S MOUNTAIN NEWS 2012-1-19 WELCOME HOME, DEAR HEARTS, WELCOME HOME Sheesh! This new puter is driving me crazy… I’ll be typing along and all of a sudden, the paragraph, font sizes go to another style totally. Even the color changes … this is the color I’ve chosen. I have no idea where the blue came from… I am sort of (read: absolutely ) confused… lolol Ok now I am back to blue… wait a minute….this is getting ridiculous. Now the copies I make will probably all look black print..I am typing in brown. It’s the artist in me. A HEADS UP ALERT Ok, let’s try this… Now, on Monday this week, I received a skype message from a feller inviting me to chat. No problem, he appeared to in the military. However, there were several dead give-aways that he was not American nor was he in the military in Iraq. I googled the name… There is a real person out there in the world with that name and he is in the military. I asked “where from†‘’tenn’’…Were you based at FT C… He had no idea /no answer. I asked where he trained… Him had to go, he was getting busy… Maybe I should have kept him… he said I was beautiful, sweet, and he was in love with me… can we meet…. He would come get me…take me back with him. (He did send me a lovely love poem) Well, I let him go on until he hung himself. You know how I get when I am in ‘cop mode†lolol So I blocked, deleted, erased everywhere… I called Ft.C to advise of the situation… talked to a detective in the vicinity…Be a son of a gun if he didn’t change his addy and got thru to me again this am. Ok, so I reported all this to Yahoo also. Here’s another…. Talked to a friend who works at an area bank. The bank had received an email … allegedly from a wealthy individual who needed cash from his account forwarded to him in England. This individual lives just outside of a small town and was at home at the time. Kids, just be careful with any and all new and old messages. No matter what the name, the person at the other end might just be a baddy after your body (as in my case) or your money (was just a matter of time, in my case) An off the subject subject. I am getting a little (A LOT) tired of the spoiled critters in Wash DC defecating in each other’s sand boxes. I sit back and watch some of the feces being tossed about but I have had a bib full of it. They aim the finger at their opponents seemingly unaware they have several of their own fingers pointing back at themselves. We are none of us saints but their job is to care for the people of this great nation... Not just engrandize themselves. Well, I guess this is enuf ranting and raving for the day. The supplies for the critters have been brought in.. enuf to last 6 or more weeks. (I have this awful feeling we will have a blizzard here before the winter is out.) I have plenty stored up… lots of cigs and pop and coffee… and CHOCOLATE! Good heavens, I’m mean enuf as it is without running out of my fave vice… lolol Just ask the Marv…I’m sure he’ll be glad to fill y’all in… lolol or http://www.eons.com/photos/photo/221693-Sam-new-toy Had the best time with the Sam… and he loved his new toy…. The empty box… it moved… it made noises… amused him and kept him out of bars and off street corners…lolol Take care all of mine, go in safety always. Remember to not believe everything you read…. Especially if it is on the first date! Lolol Many hugs, much love and lots of lafter… the seemingly magnetic meems
2012 TUESDAY 2012-1-17 WELCOME HOME, DEAR HEARTS, WELCOME HOME! I’m breaking out the slightly used arks! Most fully equipped… some need the extras … like doves, paper towels… you know. Got up to 56o today… Bikini weather for sure and we did have rain for a while… lolol. The front yard feels mushy when I walk to the mail box..I really must start wearing shoes when I go out the door… this barefoot business in cold weather doesn’t cut it… lolol Would I … would these love greens lie…? Lolol I’ll tell ya all one thing tho…Be careful for what you ask, the Gods may grant it… Old Chinese proverb there… and it is so true. When I was little, my mother wanted me to look like Shirley Temple… lolol Instead, I was skinny, suntanned a sort of dark reddish brown, skinwise… Straight black hair. I didn’t want to be Shirley Temple…I wanted dimples… sheesh, was that too much to ask… ? Just a set of dimples? Well, kids… I weighed 118 lbs back then… was 5.6†tall…when I grew up… NO dimples… Now here’s where it gets bad..or I got my wish/ask! Right around the holidays, one of my kids was in ICU at hospital in Cincinnati… I came down with the flu or food poisoning (bite your tongue, Brat!) I fretted and stewed… I lost 15 lbs +/-… then as I improved health wise, I gained some of the weight back… Plus 10 more lbs! TEN!!!!! The funny part and being careful about what I ask came back to haunt me… lolol with the ten lbs, came a dimple in my left cheek. Hmmm…. Only took 60 some years for it to appear… but, I think it’s sort of cute… lololol Lose weight? Lose my dimple???? I don’t think so! However, if I ever get the opportunity, I really really must speak to a Chinese philosopher… The really BIGGY good thing that arrived with my dimple? I have finally come to terms with who, how and what I am. Ok, so I’m a little chubbier (read ‘a lot’ chubbier here). I have more wrinkles than I did and my hair is definitely KY blonde but I like myself now. I do dumb things… but they are not disasterous… words and phrases fall out of my mouth… I never give myself any warning as to what I might say. I might have to search the attic (space between ears) for an occasional word or two… but the rest of the time I am in free fall…(I blame everything on Anna, the bad influence) She blames everything on El… then we both gang up on El… and THEN we get hysterical… lolol Re: Gunny Gibbs… If he ever leaves, I’ll just have to take up directing the border patrol… I have a feeling that crossers might not like me at all…And Sheriff Arpaio and I would get along just fine; I could work for him with no problem. What he would think about me? Now that is another story…. No, I am not prejudiced! I don’t care where the purple kangaroo came from… take him/her/it home…‘illegal’ means just that…. Not legal… Sorry bout that.. Once in a while, some things just need to. Now, before I get further involved with this…or on a roll (read bagel) I best be getting out of here… try to get some sleep tonite. Tomorrow’s gonna be another one of those days. I’m having the best time again…. Lolol Take care all of mine, go in safety always. Remember when Anna and I can’t find anybody else to pick on, we always have El (Poor guy) And then there’s Jennifer’s co-workers who tell her when I’ve been bad… Gotcha kids…lololol Many hugs, much love and lots of laffter… Meems
2012 EMOM'S MOUNTAIN NEWS posted 22 minutes ago, updated 22 minutes later Monday 2012-1-16 I’m too old to be up this early…. Lolol
WELCOME HOME, DEAR HEARTS, WELCOME HOME
I have been working my buns off… (that’s a lie) working, yes…losing buns size, uh uh! Been trying to help one of mine to get signed in here… between busy/slow services, I am wanting to thro a brick thru the screen…even if it is faster and a lot newer. And putertoo is now totally screwed up.
Wow, I finally found it! Question: Wonder? Did it ever occur to anyone that the Mayans stopped at 2012 because they already had the calendar info available? All one needs to do is go back to square (original calendar) one by the Mayans. History DOES repeat itself! If, and I do say IF, everything comes to an end this coming Dec... The 'end' will find me sitting here, drooling into my coffee mugs. Lololol I think I will plant this in the upcoming news. Am I being profound again? Lolol Shut up Marv!
Another crazy thot…missing dogs! No, I am not missing any right now but an interesting thing cropped up the other day. I saw an item in a catalog. Obsidian bladed knife with a coyote jaw bone as the handle/grip. It crossed my mind that most of my ‘lost dogs’ fit into the correct size category. We also have a mr. AB who lives in the area who poaches, takes trophy (antlers), and sells said antlers. Would it be possible to sell dog jaws as coyote? Just askin’… Now, the catalog people would not do that… nor would the guy who makes these primitive knives… But I do wonder where the supplies come from. I’ve alerted the cat people of the possibility... then there’s the phone problems…. Sheesh! Marv gave me “down the road†about problems with telephones…Laurie had problems…When Sherri and I talk, we get disconnected right in the most interesting parts of the gossip… I was starting to get paranoid! (bite your tongues..all 3 of you!) Well, today, I switched long distance carriers. How does $25 for 1,200 mins per month sound. No roll overs. Shut Up, Marv!
Then I got a call from one of mine needing help with the VA. Got the info for him and turned him loose for the time being…. He was so sweet. Well, of course, he didn’t have much of a choice… By the time I got finished with him, he was laffing like crazy. Made me feel better too..
Guess that’s it for now… take care all of mine. Go in safety always. Remember and don’t forget to ask Laurie about the card she sent and especially, ask what it said! Finally gotcha back, Brat… lolol
Many hugs, much love and lots of laffter every day to all. Meems
PS... Question... What would Gibbs do if I were his boss... ? Just think about the possiblilites... lololol [Try this one_lolol] or view link

WELCOME HOME, DEAR HEARTS, WELCOME HOME! I dunno if you kids want to come inside today or not… Sheesh! Yesterday was a real bummer in some ways! I’m still on the witchy side…I lost my mind (of which I’m not sure I still have) My temper… which I definitely know I still have. My patience…of which I have none… and a few other things!!!!!
Y’all know about the ‘missing credit card’ but I did forget to mention that I called every number listed by the company. For a solid 34 minutes, (Yes, I timed myself) I tried to reach any live person or puter who could/would answer my question….Was there a card attached? Well, kids, I was entered into a puter merry-go-round system. No matter what number I entered, the results were the same…. Zilch!
Well, we all know that I cuss on occasion… I know a lot of bad words. What I did not know is that I seem to have an innate ability to arrange said words in interestingly new combinations…. Lolol DON’T ASK!!!! ( Marv, play with your own list… )
Anyway, I did everything I could do about the problem, called the neighbors to check/advise them. No one else rec’d a catalog. I’m tellin’ y’all, I know better than to get that upset but I did. Today, I am worn to a frazzle!
Another thing… some good news! Puterwon was ill but she wasn’t contagious! Thank goodness! According to my Techie, it was one of the ‘sticks’ going bad and yes, it is fixable. Then, amidst all the madness and mayhem of yesterday, I remembered to give PM1948 a heads up.. Thanx again, Dumplin, I really appreciate the help.
Then, there are the critters… Sheesh! Remember me doing all the waiting/fretting/worrying about the critters while I waited for the fence to be completed? OK…fence has been completed for maybe a month? I can’t deal with the passage of time… never could. Well, anyway, The two lil brats discovered they could scoot under the drive-thru gate. Lilyputz was first and then the Pyggs!
OK, so now I am back to fretting again! Poor Anna, I was complaining to her… She suggested that I place boards on the outside of gate to block opening! Bingo! Wonderful… I have three 8 foot edging boards out there. I was not in the mood to play with edgers today but I knew if I didn’t, I’d never forgive myself if my brats got hurt.
So, out I go… back to the cut offs and red slippers.. get the gate bottom blocked using two of the edgers… Yes, the two lil ones are now confined to the back yard.
After the boards, I trundle (one of my fave words) out to the mail box…nothing! This is a good thing.
And, it’s ‘visiting’ weather. Around here, everybody is busy in the growing harvesting seasons. Cold snowy weather? Everybody inside staying warm. However… the weather has been warming… mostly sunny… in the 60’s Beautiful… Many are out doing last minute shopping for winter supplies (just in case)… and there are the many like me, who are out doing last minute yard things… Drivers stop by… chat for a few and then are off and gone. One thing I have noticed… lolol nobody volunteers to help pull the weeds….lolol The neighbor (one of mine) and I were chatting out there… I hear the whomp whomp of a heldoctor heading my way.
Yup, in a very few minutes, there it is… overhead… Neighbor says “helicopterâ€â€¦ I say Heldoctor… lolol I had the last word, trust me. Go in safety, my brats!
I’m out of here for now… take care all of mine… go in safety always. Remember it’s not always enuf to shut the gate… sometimes it takes chocolate…and I AM OUT! lolol
Many hugs…much love … and lots of lafter everyday… meems
