    Monday October 30 2023

    And to top it all off with a cherry on top....our Ms. Nannie has copped an attitude with me! She woke up because she wanted to go to bed. I said No, it's too early. Then she 'heard' somebody talking....

    BERSERK TIMES! ? I spent 3 hours between phone, on-line, and paper crap, and got nothing much accomplished. #1) because the SPOUSE can not request a birth certificate for her deceased husband....

    Sunday October 29 2023

    We were skipping through channels to see what was on before the news. Half an hour later, Nannie told me there was a big group of women in the woods next to the house. I said, "Nannie, when we were...

    The birth certificate I have is a 3x5 printed card, stamped and signed by a notary, YEARS ago. Maybe I just better call the town where I was born to get something "official". I hope they aren't like...

    82 degrees and sunny for today and tomorrow, and Tuesday we get rain and the HIGH temp will be 52 degrees! ?YIKES! That's kind of an abrupt drop, I'd say! The winds are already blowing the leaves off...

    My BiL told me to expect a couple of cops to come by the house tomorrow to serve papers. It has to do with the new, official guardianship; same thing happened to the brother when Nannie switched to...

    Squirrels do not like any kind of red chili pepper powder, or garlic powder. I couldn't find any steel wool to saturate with those powders. I found a plastic mesh cover that used to be a dish scrubber...

    Another 80 degree day, with sun that "sure is bright!" The leaves are changing now; of course it's nothing like up in the mountains or in New England, but they still are pretty in some areas. Our...

    Disappointing that not a single person has written anything after the 3 places we entered obits for hubby. The one my sister put in at the funeral home, with a photo, is no longer on line. It will...

    Hallelujah, Amen! I did not even HEAR Nannie getting out of her recliner, which is only 10 to 12 feet away from me(and she was using the remote for it, no less). I looked over at her chair and...

    Friday October 27 2023

    I do remember when we first moved down here....it was shortly after the youngest son said to Nannie, as he threw down her car and house keys, "To hell with you; I'm tired of all your sh**, and I won't...

    I'm not sure who the beneficiary is; I just found this piece of paper last night, so I'll have to investigate. I would think (but that doesn't always work with reality) that I would be beneficiary....

    Also, many praises for Momo, who has tremendous capacity to hold her water all night long, and she only poops after she eats her breakfast. I bring her down to the den, put down her food, and leave...

    Friday October 27 2023

    80 degrees and sunny; there are clouds way over at the horizon, but I don't think they are going to be 'ours'. Still have yet to hear from the woman who sits for Nannie and Momo. I can get my...

    Got the cellphone bill paid and had to tell the guy hubby dealt with all the time that Eddie had passed away. He said he'd been thinking about calling him since he hadn't heard from him in a while....

    Woke up exhausted (UGH!) and finally got up at 11:30 AM. Found out that Momo does not like lamb dogfood, so I had to switch her breakfast to beef, which was the only other dog food I had. She much...

    PS to the story about the quad: I taped a $5 bill to his wall, and said, "That ought to do for my first lesson. Now start teaching!" I never did remove that $5 bill from the wall.

    Tweety, I had a quad patient once who, on my first home health visit, got mad when I said that "the office said you would tell me what to do" for him. He squawked "You should already know what to do...

    Emptied out hubby's dresser drawers. He had more socks than anyone should legally be allowed. The crappy ones, I will use for dust rags to clean horrible things like ceiling-fan-dust accumulated for...

    I agree, they DO need to pay me, and for more than the $200 a month I have transferred from her checking to my checking acct. And , ahem, PSSST! ? You do know I know about not having to go to...

    We are watching HGTV House Hunters shows for Nannie because they aren't detective/murder shows. Was so frustrated today that when SiL called with a lot of helpful info, but that I already knew...

    Howdy~ As per expectations, the phone calls are not going easily. The Health Dept (who supposedly has the birth cert info) had a recorded message that the person I called is not taking messages...

    I've only seen drag shows on TV or in the movies. I did have a gay guy, back in the early 1970's,tell me that he wished I was a guy, because he thought I was awfully cute and would make a cute guy....
