    Friday June 23rd 2023

    Good Afternoon~ Eighty degrees, partly sunny, partly cloudy, with a chance of rain and/or a thunderstorm. When I went outside on the porch to have coffee, it was sooooo still --- the calm before...

    Pinpoint pupils can mean 'someone' had taken a narcotic, maybe? That's what I think, anyway. He had also, earlier, made a trip to 'the shopping center' which means the ABC store. He is having problems...

    Aaaaand he's in his bed again. Huh. He can't stay still, I guess. I saw where he tripped this morning...a no-longer-inhabited fire ant mound at the corner where the driveway and the front walk...

    Had to wait for the pharmacy to fill the refills. When I finally got home, the ballgame was in the 7th inning, and nobody has scored anything; so apparently I didn't miss much! After deciding he...

    Remember those dishes in the sink hubby told me not to do? They are still there. Woke up late AM and heard voices outside...peeked out the blinds and there is hubby, on the ground in the wet...

    4 PM and I just got back from the errand run--- I went to the Battered Women's Shelter store and donated a bunch of books, and picked up 5 more books for $5.00. Such a deal! ? Went to the bank...

    Two more spam calls... both saying I have "won the Mega-Millions!" Hahahahahahaha!? I hung up on them twice. Too bad it couldn't be so; we all know how I have longed for a jumbo WIN in some...

    It's me AGAIN! A couple of years ago we had a leak in the back corner of the den when it rained like it is now....We had some guy come in and....I dunno....seal the area where it was leaking from...

    Yah, so it turns out I've been on the National Do Not Call Registry since 2007, for all the good it does me. Oh well. I can start reporting numbers to the FCC if'n I want to, but some of the calls do...

    Gosh, Joe, I sure wish we could send you some of this rain....we are predicted to have "Shattered Scowers" for the next ten days. (I heard a radio guy say that years ago and I still haven't gotten...

    I forgot to tell you that Nannie had apparently gotten up sometime during the night last night and added two more pads to the (wet) two that were already tucked into her pull-ups. BUT! She had put the...

    Oh gosh, now this area has an alarm going on for tornado warnings. Nannie is uptight.....how's THAT for an old word?! But watching the weather maps on our local station, which has three meteorologists...

    Game of Groans

    Found this in the most recent issue of Reader's Digest: "Theses all-too-real excerpts beg the question: How does anybody get out of the hospital alive? * "The baby was delivered, the cord...

    Woke up to a thunderstorm and rain coming down thick and heavy. I said to myself, "I'm not going anywhere today!" Looked on-line and the weather says rain and t-storms ALLLLLL WEEEEEEK! There are huge...

    Happy Pappy's Day, though I think there's just a few Critter-Dads here, not any People-Pappys. Nevertheless, have a happy day, you guys! I got Nannie up for the baseball game. She only spent 17...

    Well, at least the kitties looked clean and dry and healthy. But it kills me to not be able to just up and adopt a cat/dog when I feel like I want to. I REALLY have to sit on my brain when I see any...

    Seven young does were just chowing down on deer-corn in the backyard. So pretty to watch. Then a young grey and white cat with two approx. 8 week old kittens were in our yard. The kittens were...

    Oh dearie me! I just insulted and pi$$ED off Nannie. Out of the blue she said, "I've been a cripple all my life." I said, "No you were born 'crippled' (double club-footed) and once you were...

    88 degrees and maybe a little more than that, and they say the humidity is not high, but you could've fooled me; I came in from errands and filling the bird-feeders, and I was a-SWEATIN' something...

    Now Nannie thinks the 'close call' at an airport, involving Delta and American Airlines, was being celebrated. ??? She thought that, because the airport story was followed by the report of Juneteenth....

    I was in the kitchen making supper. Nannie apparently climbed out of her recliner without using the remote to make the footrest go down. I came down to the den with her supper tray, and she was in her...

    Nurse Accused of Gossiping

    Just an amusing anecdote about 'gossip': I had been a nurse for about 4 years when I got a job on 3-11 in a small-town hospital. As I sat waiting for shift report, several days in a row these...
