Where has time went?

One day it's mid August, I blink and it's the last day of September.  Sigh.

Got the roof on the wood shed.  Looks like something I'd attempt to build.  Not a nice pretty job.  Oh well, it fits with the house and the fence.  The guy said he'd probably deliver 1 cord of wood today and another either Sat or Sun.  I see a lot of hard work in the next few days..  throwing it up on the porch and then stacking it under the roof.

Doing a 24 hour pee test to rule out another cause of the passing out.  Just what I want to do... be stuck peeing in a bottle for the next 24 hours.  Oh joy.

Sigh. Only good thing is that....

1.  The alarm on my cellphone works.
2.  The electricity was on when we woke up.

The rest of the morning went in the toilet.  Leora is in one of her addlepated moods.  She got pissed because Stephen asked her 4 times if she needed in the bathroom before he hopped in the shower.  And yes, she needed in there as soon as she heard the water come on.  Sigh.  He got mad because she was trying to get the door open with me telling her Stephen was in there.  She finally stomped off to her bedroom and stayed in there until we both got showered.  Then she ran into the bathroom for half an hour.  No.  She has not showered since last Thursday.  Yes.  She reeks but that's her normal.  She can't smell herself.  She says she can't smell anything anymore.  Bad thing is.. she has to ride with us to the cardiologist and she rides in the front seat in front of the ac.  Ugh.  Phew.  But we can't leave a senseless person home alone.

Have the dishes in the dishwasher but Stephen didn't hook it up so they aren't washing.  AWK!!!

Didn't see you online this morning.  Miss chatting.  Miss "talking" with normal people. 

Another Long Sunday

Woke up to no electric.  Called Avista on the cell and they said that 391 customers in the area were without electricity and that it would be on approximately at 12 or 12:30.  Grumbling, I went and curled back up on the bed... no internet, no tv, NO COFFEE.  Argh.  We were lucky, the electric came back on around 8:30.  Yay!  COFFEE!!!!!!!!!  Yes, I thought of 1.  lighting the stove and making coffee  2.  lighting the bbqer and making coffee.  But I need to get a regular stove top/camping coffee pot.  I can't make coffee worth a damn in a regular cooking pot.

Got my hair re-redded but it's the color that I didn't like.  I forgot there was still a box in the bathroom and that's the one Stephen used.  I have magenta red hair instead of carrot red or strawberry blonde.  Sigh.

Have an appointment with the cardiologist at 3:20 in Spokane tomorrow.  Have an appointment with the shoulder/arthritis doc Tuesday mid day.

But no more appointments for the rest of the week.  Next Tuesday, Stephen goes to see his cardiologist.  Don't know what else October will bring.

We have your anniversary present here and HayLee's birthday present.  When the two of you get over this way... If you let us know the day or so before, we'll get the pork ribs out of the freezer and get them thawed and we can eat until we are full of bbq ribs.  The porch will be neat to eat on.. no bugs trying to swipe a few bites.

Depressed today.  Guess it's just the way things are going to be for a while.  Hate being this sad.  Makes my stomach ache.

Sigh

Dinner was a disaster.  Nothing turned out right.  Should have known when I don't feel good not to try to cook.  Stephen got up to help and dropped one of my new kitchen gadgets... yep... broke it.  Oh well.  Nothing I can do about it now, is there?

Hello? Anyone reading this?

Been a long short day.  Stephen didn't get up until 10.  Which means I'm off on my time for cooking supper/dinner.  Meat won't be done until 5 or after.  Instead of pulled pork tacos, we'll be having chili colorado tacos.

Happy first anniversary, Carlee.  I know HayLee left you alone on your anniversary.  Sigh. 

I'm tired.  Stayed awake all night with a personal summer.  If it's that bad again, I'll just stay up tonight instead of even trying to close my eyes.  I hate swimming on the mattress.  Ugh.

Stephen got the bugs sprayed around the foundation, windows and doors.  Maybe they won't be using the indoors as a throughfare.

Banging head against the wall....

Stephen went to dr this afternoon.  Doc ordered the test to see if he has developed hemotomachrosis.  Had to haul the old lady with us because she was afraid someone would try to get into the house.  Who?  I don't know.  But somebody in her empty mind...I guess.

Not much else happening today.  Same old same old.

I still think I should start drinking so things wouldn't be so darned aggrivating.  At least maybe I wouldn't be fighting a losing battle.  Sigh.

WOO HOO!!!!

Got the back deck finished except for the paint.  We can have a bbq and eat out without the bugs!!!! 

Stephen was trying to start the mower on the slope in the backyard and ended up flat of his back.  Now he has a few more bruises and owies to deal with.

Boots kind of likes the back deck like it is except that he can't cut out the corner but has to use the door and he doesn't like that much.  He has to wait for the door to be opened for him. 

How are things going for you??  Haven't heard much from you in a while.  Been going outside and working instead of being online to chat.  I know I should be enjoying the going outside because pretty soon there won't be a yard to be out in..  lol.

Trudged through Tuesday...

Tired and cranky.  Going to be a late dinner.  Sigh.  But we did get all the outside stuff done on the back deck.  Now to fill in the cracks and holes from the inside.  And we have to get the paint to finish it up.  That might not happen until next Spring.

Do you want to come to dinner for your anniversay/HayLee's birthday??  Pork ribs and corn.  Not much else.  $$ is short for some reason.  I'm still scratching my head as to where it went.

I can't believe that there is only 2 weeks left in September.  Where did the blinking month go??????  Seems like Labor Day was just yesterday.

Let me know when I get to go with you on a weekend night.  I want to do my hair before hand and maybe, just maybe use a bit of makeup.  Would I wear jeans?  A dress?  (Dress means shaving of fur.  lol)

Stephen yelled at his mom.  She was moving dishes from the table to the sink to the stove to the table, you get the picture.  He was trying to put dinner on and she was piddling around in his way.  Sigh.

Lazy Sunday

Been crocheting.  Stephen is fixing hambuggies for dinner.  Mom is as usual.  Boots doesn't like the wet grass.

How was your weekend?  Did you rest yesterday and today?  Ours was the same old same old.  Planned on working on the deck but didn't want Stephen catching a cold.  Didn't get much wet stuff but it's a tad bid damp out anyway.

Working like crazy on your anniversary present.  I might get it done in time.  Sigh.  Do you want to come over for bbq ribs and corn on the cob the days off before or after?  Your cake is still frozen.

Does HayLee get her birthday off? 

Don't have much to say today.  My eyes are all blurry from crocheting all afternoon and I'm heading back to get another round or two done today.

Leora goes for an iron infusion tomorrow at 10 along with her bladder drain.  Don't know if Stephen is expecting me to be dragged along or if he will let me stay home with Boots.  Guess I'll find out in the morning.  lol

Didn't do a darned thing today.....

Got my boobs smashed.  The techs and the xray doc assure me that the big mass in the right breast is nothing to worry about even though it stays sore.  Then they tell me to be sure and talk to my doctor about it.

Made soupas for supper.  Yum.  Good Portugese food.  Boots thinks he's starving while it's cooking.  Poor Boots.

Did you have fun last night?  Boots had me up before 4 this morning.  There was a lot of traffic on Spring Street.  Don't know why.. nothing was any different than usual.  Are you working tonight? 

Had to go get nails for the porch.  Dang.  Those things aren't cheap any more.  Good thing we had a reward card.  Didn't cost us much ... I think we ended up paying $1.96..  had to pay the taxes.  Sigh.  Oh well, I think I got him enough nails to do the job twice over.  lol.

Mags got to go home.

Hopefully he enjoyed his stay.  He sure did a lot of galloping around!  He only fell down the mountain a couple times.  Guess he's not used to the steep terrain.  lol.

Stephen says that he wouldn't mind going with you some time.  For a night out.  But he worries what we would do with Leora.  She should be okay as long as it's warm enough not to have to have a fire.  And if we fed her before we took off.  She'd be okay with Boots.  And I could call and check on her occasionally.  Stephen says I can get a new pair of shoes for the outing!!!!!  But he says it will have to be when we have a little $$$.  Not that he can drink.. makes him very sick.  (leaves more for me.. he he he)

Bet you two crashed as soon as you hit the front door.  Hope you have an easy "Monday." 

I'm hearing my bed call too and it's only 5.  Sigh.  Got to get up in the morning... it's bladder day for Leora.  Dishwashing day for me... I get them done while the two of them are gone.

Long Saturday

Not much happening.  Didn't expect much to happen.  Pooches got me up at 6 to go potty.  Too late to go back to bed, stayed up.

Stephen put his order in for Zoom cereal tomorrow morning.  I'll make it for him and Leora but I won't touch that nasty stuff.  YUCK!!!!!  I don't like cooked cereal since they quit making Wheat Hearts.

Stephen is watching a weird movie on SyFy.  Mags is sacked out at his feet.  Boots is under the computer chair.

Mags is missing his family lots and lots

He's parked himself next to Stephen's chair.  If Stephen gets up, Mags gets up.  He's  been groaning and moaning and sighing when he's not snoring.  Poor Mags.  He won't even eat his num num.. He just put it down next to the wood stove,

Hope you two are having fun in Spokane.  Enjoy the nice warm evenings this weekend.

Don't know what we'll be doing tomorrow.  Maybe finish sealing the fence.  Maybe nothing but keeping Mags happy.

Boots is still trying to bully Mags.  Silly Chihuahua.                        

Sigh....

Was a very long day.  Took forever at the dr office in Spokane and then coming home there was 8 miles of 30 miles an hour behind a tow truck who was afraid he'd kick up loose gravel.  At least we didn't get caught in a jam from an accident.  Hope the biker that got hit is doing okay.

Don't know what time you'll be here in the morning.  I have to get the dishes in the dishwasher and the garbage carried out before you get here.  The garbage is ripe.  yuck.  I know that Stephen has been saying for the past 4 days he'd take it out but.......... if I want it out, I have to do it myself.

Mags should enjoy the yard while you are gone.  He'll probably sit on the porch waiting for you to get back.

Not much else happening so I guess I will go to bed.  Stephen is already there and Leora is getting ready for bed..

Boy, what a day

Stephen decided to finish the back fence.  Got it all up.  We would have been finished a lot sooner but Stephen kept turning the roll of wire the wrong way and ended up kinking it up.  Took forever to get it straightened out.  lol.

While we were up the mountain, Leora went to bible study.  I forgot to unlock the back door when I went out.. I went out the front door instead of the back.. stupid me.  Anyway, when we finished up, we were locked out.  No key.  And we knew Leora didn't have a key either.  Thank God the window to the laundry room was open.  Stephen wiggled his way through that little window.  As he was working his way through, Boots was up on his hind legs giving him doggie kisses (he was so happy that we were coming inside with him.)  Good thing Stephen is tall and skinnier than me.

Both of us are so stiff right now it's not funny.

Tomorrow morning Stephen takes Leora for her bladder drain and then we have to head for Spokane to her blood doctor for a follow up for her anemia.  The appointment is on Holland and is at 1.  So I am guessing I have to ride along to the hospital and then go from there to Spokane.  Yay me, not.

Leora got  her boobs mashed yesterday.  Mine was rescheduled to next Thursday at 10 am.. the same time as her bladder drain.  Do two chores with one trip.

Will we be seeing you Friday?  Has HayLee recovered enough to do your weekend fun?

Wonder what tomorrow will bring???

Weather peeps say lots more hot weather for at least another 2 weeks.  Which I guess is good in a way.. we can get some more of the yard stuff done.  Stephen says we are going to start on the east fence when they get back from the bladder drain tomorrow.  Who knows??? We might have it finished this week.  Then we will complete the sealer job.  And then complete the back deck.

Tuesday is going to suck.  It's boob mash day... or should I say afternoon?  I hate having to have it done.  The "girls" are sore for a week afterwards.  My big hoots don't like being forced to be pancake thin.

Did you like your breakfast?  I'm sorry I didn't have more choices.  I had wanted OJ, fruit and pancakes along with the other stuff.  Kind of a breakfast buffet.  And it had to be cold outside.  Grrr.  But I guess I should be glad that it wasn't minus 15 out there, right??

Maybe we can get together and kick back again before the winter hits.  Not that winter will stop having a get together.

Remember we still have your cake in the freezer.  Been there almost a year without getting squashed!!!

Hope you got some sleep today.  I didn't see any toilet paper stuck anywhere so I am assuming you didn't pray to the toilet gods.  (been there, done that in my young and crazy days)

September already

Where did the year go?????  Only 4 more months of 2011.  Yikes.  Christmas will be here way too soon. 

Didn't get much rain nor thunder... only one giant clap of that.  the lightning lit up the sky and the thunder came almost at the same time.  Duh, do you think maybe we shouldn't have been up in the trees???  Our hair stood straight up.  That gives one a funny feeling!!!!  We might have gotten a quarter of an inch of rain in the cuple hours it did come down.  The air was so fresh!!

Woo hoo!  Only 3 more days until we have our breakfast!!!!!!

I am so not looking forward to that trip to Spokane tomorrow for the shot in the shoulder.  I am hoping it works though and I will be free to get the fence up so Mags can run the entire third of an acre.
