SO Pissed . . .

I've gotten into the habit of making myself a snack before bed.  It could be chicken nuggets, a mini pizza, pizza rolls . . . tonight it was some meatballs that were in the freezer that I didn't want to be in there any longer for fear they'd spoil, and I was hungry so I put them in the microwave and brought them back to my room to eat them as I always do.  But I had to help Mother go to bed and so I put the meatballs up high on the desk because I know my chihuahua Peanut can get up on the desk and I thought they were where she couldn't reach them . . .but. . . they weren't.  She got em and ate what of them I'd not been able to eat, about 8 I think.  GODS I was furious.  But my fault I should have either put them elsewhere or wolfed them down.  This place is so chaotic!  So!

Storm Damage

This came down yesterday on the property behind us.

Luckily no damage was done to the house.

Thank Ceridwen!!!

We had a super storm hit last night, or early in the morning.  Massive wind, lightning and thunder, we lost power.  As of  10:00 this morning they had not been restored and apparently the outage was over several counties.  So I called Pat to see if they had power, they did, and she told us to come over which I didn't want to do because I hate leaving this house unprotected, but mother insisted JUST so she could get some coffee.  We had lunch there and came on home.  As we left we called Earl to see if the lights had come on Sheila said they did come on about 5 minutes before our call so they were on when we got home.  The house was hot but hopefully will cool down quickly.  Snoopy and Annie just came home so they are here and safe.  Life's good now let us remain in peace!

Playing . . .

Playing with my new SD Portable Card Reader I got yesterday for $5.  Normally it's $8 but this one was marked down because the package had been opened.  I took a chance and it works, just popped this one of Shadow:

I have to work on her coat, her mother practically scalped her she has bare patches so I need to get her flea treatment, a good shampoo for her coat and she needs to be wormed.  She'll be 5 months old next month and is still teeny tiny, I don't see her getting much bigger, if at all.

Anyway the card reader on my computer died so I had to get another one, I'd been using my webcam but that's annoying so I'm glad I can go back to using my Vivitar camera and card.

Another Celebrity Dies . . .

The music industry lost Prince today, he was 57.  Cause of death is speculative, but it was sudden so I'd say heart attack, aneurism or stroke.

Otherwise it was a day like any other, rained again I hope for sunshine tomorrow have much laundry to do.  Wishing the month would go ahead and end so Payday will get here and we could do SOMETHING.  But it will soon enough.  Now I need to feed pets.  More on the morrow perhaps.  RIP Prince.  

When It Rains It Floods . . .

Here at least.  Our yard and road looks like a lake.  Snoopy and Annie came home from their romp soaking wet and muddy paw to snout.  Ayyiyi.  Got a little done today hope to get a little more done tomorrow, still having family trouble, will until the family is all dead.  But faring as best I can.  Picked my next coloring WIP, some mushrooms, can't wait to get them going I have great ideas on how to color em.  I need to get out to some flea markets around here and see about pairing up with someone to do readings.  But I have a lot of work to do to get more comfortable doing that for non-friends, though most I've done have been well received and very accurate.  We'll see, that is really what I want to do from now on.

Getting Ready for a Deluge . . .

We have a good chance of rain for at least the next 8 days.  Another flood I guess.  Oreo is in heat so we're having to keep Rusty, Tiny Tim, and Thor out which, they stay out mostly so that's no problem.  Snoopy doesn't seem to want to go out as much, he still has a wound under his leg.  Peanut's 3 pups are still thriving we'll see how that goes.

Chicken pasta salad today, I've been craving it.  SO good.  I'll start it around one or two.

Down In My Back . . .

Had a lot of things I was going to do today FOR SURE but got up with that ground glass feeling in my back and it's fierce.  So haven't done a damned thing.  I did finish a picture, that's on my coloring blog.  So that's something I suppose.  Cooked us chicken patties for sandwiches, sliced the tomato so thick it was tomato slabs rather than slices, I need another mandolin.  They were good anyway, good job Great Value for having such a good product.  I bought lettuce and tomato because I knew we were going to be having those mostly.  I wanted the whole treatment.  Forgot cheese though.  Ah well next time.  More later just lamenting on my back pain.

Pondering While Eating Gingermen . . .

Just got back from town, we don't buy food to make meals anymore, just 'quick fix' meals.  I got stuff to make chicken or steak sandwiches, chips, snack cakes, stuff like that.  We will have steak sandwiches, chicken sandwiches, hot dogs until we run out of that stuff.  For my snacks I got small cans of fruit, some snack cakes, some Pepperidge Farm Milano and Gingerman cookies, some candy.  Chips.  My drawers runneth over.  Thinking about things and getting madder and madder at the human race constantly.  It's a strange, strange world we live in, Master Jack.  And getting colder and darker every day.  But life goes on one way, or another.  Something happened with the loan shark's money, it came out now it's back.  If it's still there the 15th we're using it to live on they can go to hell.  One of the reasons I'm so hating on humans at this time.

Cleaning Day . . .

Won't be on much today, it's cleaning day.  Also I'm restarting my broadcasts this evening, an hour earlier because I want to do them outside and the cam doesn't work after dark.  Didn't much think it would.  I also have to go to town to get us more food to last till the 9th.  More sodas.  I hope we have enough I haven't paid Aaron's yet but we owe them so little anymore.  I'll check it out and see.  Anyway more later right now, breakfast.

More of Life's Little Fuck Yous . . .

So we lost someone on The Walking Dead, won't know who until the Season 7 premiere in I think October.  I think it's Abe but not sure, I DO know it wasn't Rick or Carl.  I didn't hear a scream when the beating started so I'm assuming it wasn't Glen or Maggie.  That leaves Abe, Eugene, Rosita, Michonne, Daryl (we know it wasn't him), and either that's all or I forgot who else is there.  Anyway it was one of them.  So on we go.

There is someone supposed to start our yardwork in a week or two with yard cleanup, that's great but we can't pay him till next month.  But we'll see, he's working with us.  This is good.  Kinda.  I want someone to build us a 12' x 12' dog pen but no one will.

More later gotta check on things.

The Days Go On . . .

Didn't do much today I had to go to town for a few things, will have to go back tomorrow for a few MORE things, I forgot soda for one.  But I got eggs for me to start making my breakfast sandwiches again, I missed those.  All I got for meals were the stuff for jambalaya and a skillet dinner.  Will go back and get a couple of hamburger helpers to last till I get 'paid'.  Then will do the major grocery shopping.  I have to clean house tomorrow.  Top to bottom.  Got some scented bleach to see if I can make it a little more pleasant.

The season finale of The Walking Dead is tonight, a 90 minute episode.  I'm afraid, I'm VERY afraid.  This season is KILLING me.  Well, I better get on with it, only an hour more to breathe.
