we need an ongoing thread to share our failures ond / or accomplishments each day. some of them could be pretty humorous. remember in morgan county indiana we say " it aint braggin if ya done it.
good day. went to town about noon, felt lighthearted and miscievious. texted cousin sharon and told her " my mom died im trying to steal yours " she replied " ok , lol " .. humor can break things up sometimes.
slapped air shocks on my small truck even after having added an xtra leaf spring earlier. id like to handle about 1-1/2 ton on that truck , worthless otherwise. still had a chillin sandwich ride with edna . subway, country route back to home. had a wonderful , lengthy BS / philosophy conversation with my ba**ard son. pretty packed day...
i learned i had hepc at the age of 40. you get a whole new attitude. none of us have the guarantee of another day. live it like you stole it i guess is what im sayin.. f**k a bunch of hepc..
Oh my gosh, Captain, you need to gather all your postings here and put it into book form or TV script form. Really, I am serious. You could give the other reality shows a run for their money.
First time on this "Failures and accomplishments today" blog and totally forgot that the Olympics were on.... this was more interesting.
the hilarity never ends -- ednas new sweater is too nice to wear in my dirty old truck. ya win some and lose some. * sigh * emjo, youd love a trike. they ride as gently as a cadillac.
your hat - He is letting you know he cares for you and has everything in hand
my accomplishment yesterday - got two boxes of frozen moose meat, sausages and ribs off to ex and ex mil on the bus. The bus depot staff promised the boxes would arrive that evening.
today - after several phone calls they located one of the boxes at the wrong depot and ex has picked it up. Still waiting for them to find the other box -it was my ex mils birthday present. She seldom gets wild meat anymore and was really looking forward to it. Aaargh! If it isn't found soon they will be able to locate it by the smell of rotting meat! I think I'll stick to flowers in future. I guess my accomplishment is still being polite to the bus people
cap - glad edna is feeling better. My godson took me on a wild motorcycle ride through the city the year I was 70 - black leather jacket, big sunglasses and the works. Loved it and would do it again in a New York minute
We're not quite down to digging for the barn, as if I had one - wish! It's still quite surreal with some of the drifts/snowpiles 6 feet high and it's kind of wavy from the wind. Like being in a frozen ocean. This moisture came from the Gulf of Mexico. I wish it would've carried the salt with it so it would melt.
Hubby and I took mom out for lunch today. Treacherous drive there. Roads are all snow pack and ice and will not melt as we're in the single digits and teens for highs and going sub zero at night for a freaking week! Errggghhh!
At least my mom was in a good mood and enjoyed her time out and about. Made it all worthwhile. It's a good day when I can put a smile on her face. Mission accomplished!
the clown upstairs has made some real progress with dam dogs. its been so quiet i thought they were gone .shes taking them outdoors on a little balcony with padding down to do their pissin n such. im glad. i like them being here, my equiptment is safe when im working. the trip to jail for criminal mischief a couple years ago was good for me. taugt me to give things time... not my strong suit normally. lol went out with edna today. she said doc competence tested her and told sharon id be involved, take advantage of it. were going to get new eyeglasses next week. the hippa form is legal s**t . ednas flu is breaking up and she sounds like a laugh box half the time. were goin dam trike ridin this summer..
wow. had an army buddy from minnesota. useta keep me endlessly fascinated with tales of treading snow and digging down into the snow to find the barn. id put them snowshoes on and point myself south if i were him.
lol. during the hospice ordeal one of the aids was fired by southern care. i took her right on out to work with me. SC of course called me every day as we were working. at the end of every conversation id close the phone and mutter " hor " . " heather " asked me one day if i said the same after a phone call from her. i told her " prob'ly " . she said shed feel hurt if i didnt. i dont talk to her much anymore but " hor " is how she addresses me now. its definately a term of endearment with me or a standard term for females. ie; mail hor , tax hor, etc. alison. do be careful. i play for keeps.
I'm not saying it WASN'T kismet… or whatever… but you live in Martinstucky… so chances of your lost hat finding its way back to your head isn't in the realm of lottery odds… jus saying… I'll mix your mortar, ho… hugs
this is unreal. lost my army pile cap about a month ago. i was upstairs talking to the renter this am when she pointed at the table and told me she had picked up a hat at a free charity store in another town for me cause it was like the ones i wear. it WAS my freaking hat. all my different paint colors, fiberglas resin stains, automotive sealant, ditto.. i figured it out in about 10 minutes. a month ago the renters dads truck broke down two towns over. i took him and a lowboy trailer to retrieve the truck. while winching the truck onto the trailer i got overheated and laid the hat on the trailer tongue. someone in that church parking lot picked it up and it ended up at the free store in yet another town. it was lost 20 miles away and delivered back to my table. if its a sign from the god i dont necessarily believe in im impressed. i think a more proactive god might have caught it sooner but impressive none the less. i know that story sounds like a pathological fabrication, but its not. glad to have my hat back but i was hoping for a nice mortar ho instead..
Went out for my bday with another fellow bday-er I've made friends with… and even though I'm terrified to sing in front of people, I participated in karaoke night at local, low key joint. It was fun. Happy Bday to me. Oh, we sang Bohemian Rhapsody, btw… yeah… really. I even sang the instrumental parts… how can you not? Duh dununuh du du, duh dununuh du, duh, dana duh….
Took charge and visited my mother in the morning today. She likes for me to be there at lunchtime to dine with her and then take of things in her little apartment into mid-afternoon. Not today. A big snowstorm was due to hit hard around noon - and it did. Glad I put my foot down and got home before it started snowing really hard.
We'll likely see 10 to 12 inches and the winds are kicking up to 45 miles per hour. I can only imagine the snowdrifts in the morning on top of the already huge snow piles.
Luckily my husband took tomorrow off work and school will likely be called off, so I'll have a lot of help in accomplishing the rearrangement of snow in the morning. I honestly don't know where we're going to put it!
captain, good on you for taking your aunt Edna under your wing. There's a heart of gold underneath your gruffness. I expect to be duly insulted for saying that. :)
what did I accomplish today? cleaned up the cat's bathroom - again. yes, he has his own bathroom - the basement one. He hasn't tried the shower yet. ;)Watered some of the 25 plants.
Made cinnamon apples and ratatouille and cooked up some rutabaga. Made some appointments. Lazy day.
G has to stay late at work so I will thaw something for him. He doesn't eat as much when he is late.
i obtained medical advocacy for edna, got her a doc appointment and we'll be in front of doc at 1;00 pm tomorrow. edna not been to doc in two years cause her daughter wont make her an appointment feering she may be moved to AL and assets will be lost. doc knows all the details. medical care has been denied her up till now and shes done a lot of needless suffering. shes 89 and should be seeing doc every 3 - 6 months imo. shes going to get medical care now.
went to town about noon, felt lighthearted and miscievious. texted cousin sharon and told her
" my mom died im trying to steal yours "
she replied " ok , lol " ..
