SORRY but had to let that out! yeh im in the process of writing to the head guy THE ARCHBISHOP boy that priest wont know whats hit him yes we are going to cause some crap in the church we want an official apology in writing from the church or we are taken it to the newspapers! The complete hypocrisy of this church NO WONDER GODS PISSED!

( sigh )
picture ; fire breathing fanatic preacher pounding his podium . " ye must be borned AGAIIIIN !! "
what if all the theatrics were not present and we read it as BORN again , as in reincarnated to further advance the cause of justice on earth . there are people on this earth too d*mn wise to have picked it up in one lifetime . genetically the same person is reborn every few generations . nothing mystical about it , its genetics . youll be reborn to continue your career of mayhem or your career of good deeds . mayhem will keep landing you in prison . good deeds will pay back many times over ..

Well of course hes not impressed with these a**holes BUT they think well i must be a good person cause my ass in on a church pew (while my sibling is dying from exhaustion) thats irrelevent im at church??
Dont get me started my fathers partner is there at my dads wake with her rosary beads hail marys to beat the band............i asked her on the last night would it be possible for US his children to have a quiet moment alone by his coffin? no problem she said? you can only imagine the saddest moment in your life to say goodbye knowing you may never see him again (sorry shaking writing this it still hurts like hell) we said what we wanted to say i kissed his forehead THEN that B*TCH barges in with a neighbour to see him OMG had to hold my bro as he was going to crack and thump her BUT we held our own with DIGNITY ( are now plotting revenge but thats another book!) Yeh shes a church every sunday hypo too THEN the priest didnt seem to know WHO we were so my sister made sure he knew and introduced us all and asked him if we could do something at the funeral?? ( i know we had to ask) he said you have to square that with his partner?? at the service we were not mentioned he said "then there is his other family who i dont really know so i cannot comment" WTF

Sorry to rant but dont get me going on these fckwits! Not only is my fathers partner going to get hers BUT im taking down the catholic church yeh dont fck with this family!

Ive tried to let it go really but i cant that was my dad and i couldnt even let him in go in peace who does that barges in when your about to say goodbye forever? then go and PRAY! i dont think so!

Shes toast!

i can quote a few scriptures too .
ye shall know them by their works
beating their breasts and crying aloud in high places
having a form of godliness but denying the power therin .....
i could go on but its all moot . im too busy trying to figure out how to get into that 50 ish looking , in the process of a divorce , dental hygienists pants .
god would want that for us ..

so if there is a god , kaz , i dont think hed be amused by people dressing to impress each other and sitting in a church telling each other how great they are . he might want to see them caring for the helpless , both kids and elders and being a living asset to humankind . he probably despises self serving liars as i do . whatever . if theres a judgement day coming i cant wait -- lets rock bi*ches ..
i have two sisters . one has cared for a demented elder thru years of heartache and misery . the other pretty much eats chicken and pie with the church people and quotes scripture like a freakin popcorn machine . the latter one hasnt a clue imo ..
dont get me wrong -- wonderful people in the churches , then a majority of self deluded mental midgets ..

Cap i could tell you stories that would have your hair pop right out of your bandana and make your beard stand on end!! Ive experienced a few things that just couldnt be explained and i was the biggest cynic you could meet since Dad died spooky things happened and since then i am a true believer in A god there is something out there and its given me great peace but i had to see it to believe it! Each to their own i say as long as you dont ram it down my face!
Do you know my sister is a born again christian??? wont see her sick mum as she has issues with her? yep shell go to h*ll and back! but she reckons shes going to be alright in the next life and we are all stuffed? oooh shaking in my boots!! if i didnt visit my mum in 4yrs and never gave a toss about her id be pooing my pants by now if i were her!

if the devil wasnt an evil fabrication by established religion id bust him over the head so hard it'd break his ankles . cancer , im afraid of . superstitious idiocy , not so much ..
treat others as youd like to be treated . theres my belief system in one sentence ..
that was pagan belief and common sensical long before it was biblical ..

Just here watching a cooking programme my mum just told me the reason the irish used to put a cross in the bread when baking was to keep the devil out!!!!!! Superstitious US?
"may you be in heaven an hour before the devil knows youre dead" oh i could go on and on but i wont bore yee!!
Any wonder we are all messed up over here? god fearing not really more SCARED SH*TLESS of the devil!!

Cap bit of advice here (although you never listen) the older we get the more the enamel wears off the teeth ERGO the more painful it gets SO it pays to get them done every six months trust me also use a sensitive toothpaste last clean was a breeze for me!! i have great teeth but my gums have to come out!!!!!!!!

had my teeth cleaned today -- smoker -- havent had teeth cleaned in 3 - 4 years = i got beat up . think ill eat a couple shots of 190 for dinner .. he he
never batted an eye during the procedure but im home now and i dont mind saying " son of a b*tch that hurt !!

Mushroom risotto with brown basmati rice but have bloated so i guess even this rice is a no no Mmmmmmm? running out of things to eat now? Am going to get so thin i may fall down a drain?

Fed up with pork still some left mum can have it! I will make a spanish tortilla pototoes and onions with a salad!

Mum made muffins?? ever seen a flat muffin? god love her!

LOL, Book. Spam brought back memories. The canned deviled variety was my Dad's favorite snack. He would take saltines and twirl them into the spam can, just the perfect size for dipping the cracker this way. Oh and with a bottle of RC Cola! Probably a carry over from his days in the army. He passed over 45 years ago now.

You all are missing out when the locals make their Spam dishes. I'm not good at it because I've always thought it's so salty. So I avoid it as much as possible - except in a Spam stew/soup. But some people can make spam salad that has real lemon juice, onions, real grated coconuts with freshly picked hot red peppers. Yum! And some can make a mean Spicy Spam fried rice. You all just have to eat it when the experts make it. Then ask how they make it - so that you can do it at home.

Today's dinner - we had only 2 slices of luncheon meat. One for sis, one for me. Since that's not enough food for dinner, I took one of dad's hard boiled egg (he eats daily one egg for breakfast), some leftover brocolli, leftover corn, a slice or 2 of avocado and one Mezzetta yellow chili pepper with rice. It was filling enough. If I still get hungry, I can always eat oatmeal.

Am hungry now! theres a bit of pork left!! this thread makes you fat!!

Oh hadenough thats sweet but you can still call around and cook for her OR do they not have this facility? Mum hated the food in the NH i often wondered if she does end up there would i be able to bring her in good food? maybe not! i have to say the food there was pretty awful?
Maybe if the food was good she would go in again?

You wont know yourself next week it will be hard but you get to be a daughter again and sleep at night hopefully!!

I didnt think americans had cobbler but then i guess you have everything european as so many emigrated there!

You would love beef stew and dumplings then its a suet topping light and fluffy!! with beef stew underneath and carrots but a real comfort winter food!!

I had a Hawaiian boyfriend who loved Spam - go figure . I told my Mums when I moved in not to call the hummingbirds "hummers" anymore. When I told her why she just laughed - kinda the same thing as a hoover. So tonight we are having pot pies and cobbler. Comfort food anyone?? My mums moves to AL next week so I am giving her all the comfort she wants.

just lunch meat sandwiches with bbq chips on em and a couple of beers for me tonight . i learned up at my sons house that zans arent necessarily made for getting pie faced and working on but are much more useful for making you sleep well at night . tried it last night . i dont remember ever feeling this good in my life . sawed and split firewood for a full 7 hours today , by myself as always , and still feel like a million bucks . of course the hepc virus is no more . if i get my s*it together now my life could get right productive again . its nice to work without fatigue and muscle burn ..
hope everybody is having a pleasant weekend . i like to work on the weekends so i feel justified in taking a couple or three days off during the week ..

Pam lucky you! I love italian wines! When i had money i would treat myself to the "barollo" i think i spelt that right! used to be about 25dollars a bottle here but worth every drop!! I lived in Milan for 2yrs not the best place to eat when youre wheat intolerant BUT the food was to die for! I love tirimasu i hope you have this tonight for dessert!!

We are going to the "Touch of Italy", I hope they are not out of Chianti.

JB i love curries but had to stay off them as a bit hard on the stomach! In india they drink a milk drink "lassi" with thier food which is clever as it lines the stomach for all the spicey food! It does work but i cant drink milk? I like curries really hot! we grew up on them as mum was very cultured and loved trying foreign dishes! Once had a dry south african curry that blew my head off!! but was nice!

Sorry JB i knew someone would get me on that one BUT youre too late i answered this on my whine "thread"!!!! yeh hoover was the brand name thats why we here call it hoover!

I've got chicken curry in the crockpot, and a bag of nann bread from Costco on the counter. Took a little effort this morning, but dinner will be easy!

Over here, hoover is not a verb. Herbert Hoover was a US president. We have a big dam named after him. :) On the same tour that visited the Spam museum, we toured the birthplace tribute to this president (in Iowa.) I was really impressed with this humanitarian statesman that I knew little about.

William Henry Hoover (no relation) founded what became a huge floor-care equipment company. He did not invent the equipment, but he bought the patent. In the US, even people whose equipment was made by the Hoover company "vacuum" with the equipment, we do not "hoover" with it. :)

Burnt leftovers put oven on and came on here!!!!!!!!! burnt my dinner!! dont mind wasnt that hungry anyway had big mexican lunch!

Have a good day Capn! am off to stuff my face on fish tacos and am so excited ive never had a fish taco hope this new place is good! Who says caregivers get fat from comfort eating???????????? what the hell else is there to do? OK ill jog all the way to the taco place!!

AHA! thats why FF was laughing at me last week!!!!! So what does hoovering mean over there? wasnt the guy that invented the "vaccum" called hoover?? you see there is method in our irish "madness"!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL

" hoovering "
that term caused a little tingle in my groin this morning . since your already hoovering over here in my corner -- eh . theres something wrong with my head .
we vaccum the floors here in the usa ..

Good for him! I find hoovering theraputic but theres only so much you can hoover unless i start hoovering the attic? well at least it keeps you outta trouble and fit!!! i am going to try really hard this week to start my yoga dvd?? im not lazy it just means decluttering the front room so i have room to excersise? i am sitting here looking at a huge mess clutter boxes with crap in too much furniture yeh crap everywhere! i just need a small space but can see its not going to happen and i may have to pay for classes! this cluttering is enough to send anyone to the funny farm!!
