Fri, 26 Jan 2007 00:48:18 GMT

Well the day has come for me to move on. I have stopped by all yer spaces this past couple weeks, and now the time is here for my final blog. What a year it has been, since I started here? I have come to care much about my friends I have met here on spaces. You have been so good for me. I thank you all from the bottom of my heart, and you will not be forgotten.

Updates are as follows.

Mom? doing worse, still not eatting, stays in bed most of the time, hallucinating. Long talk with my brother last night, and after I called her nurse of record. She is to have come and seen mom today. I am not holding my breath for improvement. I have long since turned it over to God and his will.

my new business has been off to a good start, I suspect it will grow quickly over time as word spreads. I have over 15 clients already and I'm quite excited over how well its gone.

Happy New Year Everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wishing all of you fellow spacers a wonderful and prosperous New year. Remember my business opens tomorrow. You've seen the webpage. The actual forum opens midnight tonight, PST. Check it out here http://healingbranches.com/forum/index.php If you or someone you know needs a ear for a issue thats bugging you or are having more serious problems, refer them to healingbranches.com. Christmas was nice with my bro and his family. Unfortunately Mom is not taking care of herself, taking her meds or anything to get better. I suspect she'll be in a nursing home within the next few months. Can't help those who won't help themselves. sad

I will try to visit you all again, but msn continues to be an ongoing headache to me when I try. So until then, Love to you all.

now for the funny of the day..........................

"Signs You've Chosen A 'No Frills' Airline":

They don't sell tickets, they sell chances.

All the insurance machines in the terminal are sold
out.

Before the flight, the passengers get together and
elect a pilot.

You cannot board the plane unless you have the exact
change.

Before you took off, the stewardess tells you to fasten
your Velcro.

The Captain asks all the passengers to chip in a little
for gas.

When they pull the steps away, the plane starts rocking.

The Captain yells at the ground crew to get the cows
off the runway.

You ask the Captain how often his planes crash and he
says, "Just once."

No movie. Don't need one. Your life keeps flashing
before your eyes.

You see a man with a gun, but he's demanding to be let
off the plane.

All the planes have both a bathroom and a chapel.

An Idea who's t ime has come

Mon, 04 Dec 2006 00:30:34 GMT

Interesting, my visitors has decreased since my last entry Here I have exciting news, and request my friends feedback here in Bloggarrittaville. Please don't forsake me now (sigh). Ok my new business web page is up and I'd like some feedback? please visit it at

http://healingbranches.com/ Tell me what you think of the concept? The actual forum I have been hard at work on. I am very excited about this venture. Tell me what you think? and of course keep it in mind, tell yer friends. Currently it is for 18 and older. At some point, when I know more about the whole admin part of it, I would like to open it to teens as well, (with parental permission only). So this is why I have not been around much. I do hope to hear from as many of you as possible, as this is a novel concept (as far as I know) and I'm eager to get it started January 1st 2007.

In other news, this month marks my 1 year as a blogger here on msn, or anywhere, lol. So stop and say Happy Anniversary, k?

Now onto todays old funny.............................................................

A wife was making a breakfast of fried eggs for her husband.
Suddenly, her husband burst into the kitchen.

"Careful," he said, "CAREFUL! Put in some more butter!
Oh my GOD! You're cooking too many at once. TOO MANY!
Turn them! TURN THEM NOW! We need more butter.
Oh my GOD! WHERE are we going to get MORE BUTTER?
They're going to STICK! Careful...CAREFUL! I said be CAREFUL!
You NEVER listen to me when you're cooking! Never! Turn them!
Hurry up! Are you CRAZY? Have you LOST your mind?
Don't forget to salt them. You know you always forget to salt them.
Use the salt. USE THE SALT! THE SALT!!! THE SALT!!!"

The wife stared at him. "What in the world is wrong with you?
You think I don't know how to fry a couple of eggs?"

The husband calmly replied, "I wanted to show you what it
feels like when I'm driving."

Oh my fellow spacers, I have missed you this week. But I had an epiphany earlier in the week and have begun a year long plus, dream and have begun my own business on the www. I bit the bullet and got a domain and a forum and a server and am now setting it up. What I have learned so far is "OMG I have so much to learn" I thought having moderateda couple forums, that it would just entail some further tech learning to administrate one Lets just say that in 3days of tutorial reading on how to do what I need to do as admin, I have been overwhelmed and unable to do anything but whine and flood anyone who will listen with questions and such. So if any of you are involved in a forum? go hugs yer adminsitrator today. You have no idea what work they do to keep that place active and functioning technically.

I know I will cath on and have already enlisted a friend to help with the admin stuff. The idea for the forum is new and not being done yet, so it will serve a service and I think it will be a good money maker, down the line. Its this initial putting it together thats gonna require alot of fortitude on my part and those helping me. I can't elaborate further, but stay tuned for the grande opening by January 1st. And of course keep my sanity in yer prayers, I need that for sure

I won't be blog walking as much for the next month or so as I really need to put my energies into the business. i feel like I live on this puter now, as if i wasn't on it enuff as it is

Am looking forward to seeing my family for the holiday here. Wishing all of you a Happy Thanksgiving.

Oh I had the idea too last night, that when I get my business up and running, how interested would ya all be in a forum for us bloggers here? where we could interact and play games and such? Just an idea? Is there already one somewhere and I just haven't been invited? lol

ok lets see if i have a joke to post...............................

Howdy fellow spacers I regret the length of time since my last entry but, you know how it goes. Between Computer class and HTML lessons and online surveys, I'm a bit puter fried, and not ready to deal for hours of msn waits for webpages to load. Oops, that means another few months of not being featured for msn space of the week hehehe

Ok catch up time? I took the microsoft office specialist pre test yesterday and scored 90%Felt good about that. The HTML lessons continue to give me a headache, thus far I have learned to insert images and learned how to bold and size my font. Now I am working on colors of font tags and indents.Has been 2 weeks and I am still not getting it

In other news, Mom is doing fine, I will be seeing her and the family next week for Thanksgiving. Am gonna help her go thru the clutter that is taking over their home. I truly think I need to spend more time in the company of humans, as this morning as I was preparing the kitties breakfast I found myself singing the following ditty to the tune of "Double Trouble" (by Elvis)

"Weve got sammy salmon, we've got sammy salmon

Twice as much as any other kitty oh yeah

woah oh oh oh

woah oh oh oh"

So you see, I need to be resocialised well I guess I shall see if I can insert a pic in here HTML style, just to see if I got it down. Special thank you to Bored Barb who has provided a treasure trove of smileys in her blog the past year that I have stolen...........I mean borrowed. hehehe

and todays funny is curtesy of Bob of http://spaces.msn.com/ruserious1947/ thank you. Lastly I have recently come across this fun little site where you come up with a caption for the days picture, i have alot of fun with it, if you have time, make it part of yer fun each day here http://dewitte64.spaces.live.com/ and now onto today funny email..........

A funny

1. Examine the software packaging until you find a little printed box that
explains what kind of computer system you need to run the software. It
should look something like this:

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS 2386 PROCESSOR OR HIGHER 628.8 MEGAHERTZ MODEM 719.7 MB
FREE DISK SPACE 3546 MB RAM 432323 MB ROM 05948737 MB RPM ANTILOCK BRAKING
SYSTEM 2 TURTLE DOVES NOTE: This software will not work on your computer.

2. Open the software packaging and remove the manual. This will contain
detailed instructions on installing, operating, and trouble-shooting the
software. Throw it away.

3. Find the actual software, which should be in the form of either a
3.5-inch floppy diskette or a CD-ROM, located inside a sealed envelope that
says:

LICENSING AGREEMENT: By breaking this seal, the user hereinafter agrees to
abide by all the terms and conditions of the following agreement that nobody
ever reads, as well as the Geneva Conve! ntion and the U.N. Charter and the
Secret Membership Oath of the Benevolent Protective Order of the Elks and
such other terms and conditions, real and imaginary, as the Software Company
shall deem necessary and appropriate, including the right to come to the
user's home and examine the user's hard drive, as well as the user's
underwear drawer if we feel like it, take it or leave it, until death do us
part, one nation indivisible, by the dawn's early light, finders keepers,
losers weepers, thanks you've been a great crowd, and don't forget to tip
your servers.

4. Hand the software to a child aged 3 through 12 and say, "(Name of child),
please install this on my computer."

5. If you have no child age 3 through 12, insert the software in the
appropriate drive, type "SETUP" and press the Enter key.

6. Turn the computer on, you idiot.

7. Once again type "SETUP" and press the Enter key.

8. You will hear grinding and! whirring noises for a while, after which the
following mes! sage s ho uld appear on your screen:

The Installation Program will now examine your system to see what would be
the best way to render it inoperable. Is it OK with you? Choose one, and be
honest:

| YES | | SURE |

9. After you make your selection, you will hear grinding and whirring for a
very long time while the installation program does who knows what in there.
Some installation programs can actually alter molecular structures, so that
when they're done, your computer has been transformed into an entirely new
device, such as a food processor. At the very least, the installation
program will create many new directories, sub-directories,
sub-sub-directories, on your hard drive and fill them with thousands of
mysterious files with names like "puree.exe," "fester.dat," and "doo.wha."

10. When the installation program is finished, your screen should display
the following message:

CONGRATULATIONS
The installation progra! m cannot think of anything else to do to your
computer and has grown bored. You may now attempt to run your software.

If you experience any problems, electrical shocks, insomnia, shortness of
breath, nasal discharge, or intestinal parasites, you should immediately
swear, like this: *!%!$&$%&*^$*!#$#!$*^&.

11. At this point your computer system should become less functional than
the federal government, refusing to respond even when struck with furniture.

12. Call the toll-free Technical Support Hotline number listed on the
package and wait on the line for a representative, who will explain to you,
in a clear, step-by-step manner, how to adopt a child aged 3 through 12

Well folks, I am definitley the victim of identity theft. My name and addy and drivers license number have been used by a woman to write bad checks all over Fremont and she used it to rent a car of which she has not returned. So thankfully the police in fremont found that it wasn't me, as she is african american and I am caucasion, she has doctored a license with her pic but my addy. As of Monday last week she has 4 warrants out for her arrest and she is using others info as well as mine. Fortunately the actual credit card she used isn't mine.

As to Mom, the dear woman has drove me nut all month with this never ending "cold" she supposedly has, she would daily make statements about "oh i love to have my hot chocolate when i am sick" or I love to hang out in bed and watch tv when I am sick" and I would state, "Well honey you can enjoy those things healthy too, you don't have to be sick to do them" so today the cat leaks out of the bag, as we're talking, she says what a mess their place is, and theres clothes folded and stacked up all over. Then she says, good thing I am sick and can't be bothered with it". lol, I told her when I come up for Thanksgiving we will go thru her clothes closet and drawers and get rid of the stuff that no longer fits (as she has planty) and make room for the stuff that does, silly woman...........

A minister was completing a
Temperance sermon. With great emphasis he said, "If I
Had all the beer in the world, I'd take it and pour it into the river."
With even greater emphasis he said, "And if I had
All the wine in the world, I'd take it and pour it into the river."
And then finally, shaking his fist in the air, he
Said, "And if I had all the whiskey in the world,
I'd take it and pour it into the river."

Sermon complete, he sat down.

The song leader stood very cautiously and announced
With a smile, nearly laughing, "For our closing song,

Let us sing Hymn #365, "Shall We Gather at the River."

Hello fellow bloggers, wow 2 updates in 1 week, can you believe it? lol. Well some things to share so here I am. First off BB and CG update (Thats Beautiful boy and Cutie girl) the kitties I rescued and found a home for. I called their owners last night, as i was worried the past week or two about their vacation and how it was gonna be for the 2 kitties. The husband answered and said the kitties are fine, and happy and healthy. He thanked me for gi ving them to them and paying all the medical stuff. They absolutley adore them and vice versa, so now I can fully let go and know that all is well.

On more of a strange note..............I recieved a certified letter a few days ago from a rental car agency asking me to please return the car I rented from them on the 6th of this month. problem is I did not rent a car from them on that day or any day this year??????So I c all them and ask how my name was related to a car I never rented, they read off a credit card number to me and I assured them I had no such credit card with that number. So now they have to send me a forgery form to sign and have notarised and send back. So...........how did someone get my name and address, granted its a name I haven't used legally in over 10 years? Of course I immediatley called the bank to make sure my bank account hadn't been accessed for car rentlas or anything else I hadn't done. All was well thereRegardless its disconcerning that someone would use my name for such a thing?

Lets see what else, Oh my blog anniversary is in Dec............so one more month til it turns 1 year old

I continue to organise and clean out my puter files, what alot of junk I had on there Today on ebay I won 2 auctions totaling 21 assorted videos of old tv shows for 27 bucks including shipping Half of which is for my mom for Christmas, so she can watch stuff other than Little house on the prarie and the waltons

I continue to plug away on my HTML lessons and my office work programs. Am reading some good reads right now.

Ok update completed...............n ow onto todays old funny email..................

Subject: Politics Explained

A little boy goes to his dad and asks, "What is Politics?"
Dad says, "Well son, let me try to explain it this way:
I am the head of the family, so call me The President.
Your mother is the administrator of the money, so we call her the
Government.
We are here to take care of your needs, so we will call you the People.
The nanny, we will consider her the Working Class.
And your baby brother, we will call him the Future.
Now think about that and see if it makes sense."
So the little boy goes off to bed thinking about what Dad has said
Later that night, he hears his baby brother crying, so he gets up to check
on him. He finds that the baby has severely soiled his diaper.
So the little boy goes to his parent'! s room and finds his mother sound
asleep. Not wanting to wake her, he goes to the nanny's room. Finding the
door locked, he peeks in the keyhole and sees his father in bed with the
nanny. He gives up and goes back to bed.

>The next morning, the little boy says to his father, "Dad, I think I
>understand the concept of politics now." The father says, "Good, son, tell
>me in your own words what you think politics is all about."
>
>The little boy replies, "The President is screwing the Working Class while
>the Government is sound asleep. The People are being ignored and the
>Future is in deep shit."

Made it on time Monday

Today was "file management" in computer class and I was happy to have drug my butt out of bed on time and get there, on time (for a change)So now on my list of chores is to clean up my poor puter and organise these files and delete the duplicates I threw all over it, when I didn't know what the hell I was doing

I'm also still plugging away on ebays HTML group practices. passed my 1st lessonUnfortunately my little buying spree has been shut down til Novemeber (late) as I had an incredible cigg tax for the year come due that I had to pay this week, which cut into my other bills I planned on paying. I have 200 bucks more to the lawyer and she'll be paid off. Today she gave me the Bankrupcy class info, which I have to take before she files, but waited til the end to give me. Of course none of the clases are anywhere near where I live and they cost money. The great American way, if it makes no sense, better believe we'll adopt itI just want this whole chapter to be done with by the new year, ya know?

In other news, Mom spent the afternoon with my brother and his family yesterday. We talked about it every day for 3 weeks, yet she had forgotten each day when I reminded her. So I called Sunday and reminded her and she started getting all anxious, I calmed her down and told her to start getting ready and not to get all crazy about it, its just fam, at their house. She ended up going and Mike says they all had a good time. Watched a movie, ate mexican food and his wife cut and styled her hair for her. Sad thing is, I asked her today if she enjoyed herself and she said "I can't remember, let me ask Fred" (her husband). lol, sad, he wasn't even with her

What else......................my statistics show I have had over 10,000 visits now here. Clearly not all have posted comments

Weather here is still low 80s during the day. Today I fed the ducks and had about 40 of them following me back to the EDD building, lol. well, updated my recently read booklist on here. As to the scanner hook up, haven't done it yet, maybe this weekend, nag me people, and I may get to it quicker

now onto todays funny old email...............................

Brian invited his mother over for dinner. During the course of the
meal, Brian's mother could not help but keep noticing how beautiful Brian's roommate, Stephanie, was.

Brian's Mom had long been suspicious of a relationship between Brian and
Stephanie, and this had only made her more curious. Over the course of the evening, while watching the two react, she started to wonder if there was more between Brian and Stephanie
than met the eye.

Reading his mom's thoughts, Brian volunteered, "I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you Stephanie and I are just roommates."

About a week later, Stephanie came to Brian saying, "Ever since your
mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the beautiful silver gravy
ladle. You don't suppose she took it, do you?"

Brian said, "Well, I doubt it, but I'll send her an e-mail just to be sure.

Therefore, he sat down and wrote:

Dear Mom:
I'm not saying that you "did" take the gravy ladle from the house, I'm
not saying that you "did not" take the gravy ladle. But the fact remains
that one has been missing ever since you were here for dinner.
Love, Brian

Several days later Brian received an email back from his mother that
read:

Dear Son:
I'm not saying that you "do" sleep with Stephanie, I'm not saying that
you "do not" sleep with Stephanie. Nevertheless, the fact remains that if
Stephanie were sleeping in her own bed, she would have found the gravy ladle by now. Love, Mom

LESSON OF THE DAY ... NEVER LIE TO YOUR MOTHER!!!

Kick back Tuesday

Howdy all My trip to Redding went well. Mom and I had a good time visiting. Ciouldn't get her out of the house, but we had a nice time chatting and reminiscing. I had a memory book (that her and I had written 20 years ago) that I took there and we reread it together. It was full of stuff that both of us had forgotten. She is still very thin and has a rash on her face and keeps getting these bumps on her eyelids, from rubbing them all the time. Her nurse was scheduled to come over the following Monday and check it out and do some blood work on her. Other than that she was in a good mood. I spent the eve with my brother and his family. We had a great time as always. Stayed up til 1:30 in the morning, outside chatting and being entertained by their 6 cats. I got some great pics of my niece and nephew.

While hunting for moms memeory book I found my digital camera dn the power cord to my scanner, so I hope to be able to put up some new pics onto my puter this week to share. In other news...........I am enjoying my ebay forays and am learning HTML to make my own web pages. My computer class had me nearly brain dead on Monday.............sometimes I feel I am learning so many new things, that my brain is going to explode. Oh I ended up starting another blog here http://kadrinscorner.blogspot.com/ not to replace this one, but in order to leave comments on some of you who have moved there, one has to open an account so......funny thing is, now I can't access it cuz it says my password is invalid? silly.

The weather here remains wonderful. Tige and Oce are well. So now onto todays old funny email...........then some blogwalking..................................

CAMPING

Dear Mom & Dad,

Our Scoutmaster told us to write to our parents in case you saw the flood on TV and are worried. We

are okay. Only one of our tents and two sleeping

bags got washed away. Luckily, none of us got drowned because we were all up on the mountain looking for Adam when it happened. Oh yes, please call Adam's mother and tell her he is okay. He can't write because of the cast. I got to ride in one of the search and rescue jeeps. It was neat. We never would have found Adam in the dark if it hadn't been for the lightning. Scoutmaster Keith got mad at Adam for going on a hike alone without telling anyone. Adam said he did tell him, but it was during the fire so he probably didn't hear him. Did you know that if you

put gas on a fire, the gas will blow up? The wet wood didn't burn, but one of the tents did and also some

of our clothes. Matthew is going to look weird until his hair grows back. We will be home on Saturday if Scoutmaster Keith gets the bus fixed. It wasn't his fault about the wreck. The brakes worked okay when we left. Scoutmaster Keith said that with a bus that old you have to expect some thing to break down; that's probably why he can't get insurance. We think it's a neat bus. He doesn't care if we get it dirty, and if it's hot, sometimes he lets us ride on the fenders. It gets pretty hot with 45 people in a bus. He let us take turns riding in the trailer until the highway

patrol man stopped and talked to us. Scoutmaster Keith is a neat guy. Don't worry, he's a good driver. In fact, he is teaching Jesse how to drive on the mountain roads where there isn't any traffic. All we ever see up there are logging trucks. This morning

all of the guys were diving off the rocks and swimming out in the lake. Scoutmaster Keith wouldn't let me because I can't swim, and Adam was afraid he would sink because of his cast, so he let us take the canoe across the lake. It was great. You can still see some of the trees under the water from the flood. Scoutmaster Keith isn't crabby like some Scoutmasters. He didn't even get mad about us not wearing life jackets. He has to spend a lot of time working on the bus so we are trying not to cause him any trouble. Guess what? We have all passed our

first aid merit badges. When Andrew dived into the lake and cut his arm, we got to see how a tourniquet works. Steven and I threw up, but Scoutmaster Keith said it probably was just food poisoning from the leftover chicken. He said they got sick that way with food they ate in prison. I'm so glad he got out and became our Scoutmaster. He said he sure figured out how to get things done better while he was doing his time. By the way, what is a pedal file? I have to go now. We are going to town to mail our letters and buy some more beer. Don't worry about anything. We are fine.
Love,
Chris

Greetings spacer friends. Thanks for yer suggestions regarding running a quicker msn. I have helped the problem by removing one of my spy programs that kept jamming me up on here when loading spaces. Will keep tweaking things til optimal performance.

The weather is excellent lately. 70s and low 80s during the day. The cats love it.

No complaints today, can you believe it? lol

The reason I am updating today was more for the funny I want to post and the anniversary of the Peanuts gang.

Also I need to update my booklist. Today is my annual counting of the books I have. Will be a chore but, I likek to keep track once a year.

so without further ado..............todays funny and informative Peanuts anniversay sharing.

The "Peanuts" comic strip by Charles Schulz, starring Charlie Brown
and his dog Snoopy, first appeared on October 2, 1950. It was
published in 9 newspapers at the time. Snoopy first appeared two
days later.

In honor of Charles Schultz, who retired Charlie Brown and the gang.

Most cartoon characters remain frozen in time. Though they've
been around almost 50 years, the members of the Peanuts gang
are in some unspecified elementary school holding pattern.

But what if they had been allowed to age like the rest of us?
With apologies to Charles Schulz:

Charlie Brown: Operates Good Grief Counseling Inc., which
specializes in manic depressives and people who are just
having a bad day. Moonlights as a pitching coach at high school
and college levels. Married to Marcie. They have a roundheaded
son who wears glasses.

Linus: Developer of Security Blanket Software, which is a hot item
on the New York Stock Exchange. Worth millions but is actively
involved in charitable causes, including the Great Pumpkin 5K Fun
Run every Halloween. Only man who makes Bill Gates nervous.

Lucy: Serving her seventh term in Congress. On her third husband.
Claims she hasn't thought about Schroeder in years, but the
background music on her answering machine is Beethoven.

Schroeder: After years on the classical performing circuit, he runs
a piano bar in Carmel, Calif. Won't let anybody lean on his piano.

Sally: Never quite got over being spurned by Linus. Has a cat
named Sweet Baboo. Sells Mary Kay.

Peppermint Patty: Women's athletic director at a Midwest
university. Her fashion credo: "Sandals go with everything."

Snoopy: In dog years, he be 350. What do you think would've
happened to him? Linus has created an endowment at Daisy
Hill Puppy farm in Snoopy's memory.

Well it only took 10 minutes for this site to load, Could be why I don't update more than once a week lately

Does it load faster if you hide things like freinds lists etc? If so, I may hide some of this stuff on here.

Well lets see..................Got a call from the kitties new owners (finally) and they are all healed from their spaying and neuturing. The woman absolutley adores them and says they are fitting in just fine. That finally allowed me to let go and quit worrying over them

Tige and Oce are back to enjoying their castle and being carefree little sweeties

I had a run in again with my lawyers office and the Beotch that runs it. Seems my lawyer decided Wednsday (last week) that she no longer wants to do BKs, then decided Friday that she would continue to represent my case. I demanded a meeting with her yesterday and basically said "Put up or shut up" She has agree'd to see it thru

Mom continues to have her good days and her bad days. I am going up to see her in less than 2 weeks.

The weather here has cooled off and rain expected tomorrow

Am still learning tons of stuff in my computer class.

Have been active on ebay the past couple weeks. Has anyone found this to be addicting? lol

Well can't think of much more to add, such is my exciting life lately, but i like it this way, for now. so onto todays old funny email............................

Sanguine Sunday

Sun, 24 Sep 2006 22:18:47 GMT

Well I found a home for the kittens Friday evening. It was hard letting them go and saying goodbye, but its for the best all around. Tige and Oce were not enjoying life and I was too stressed dealing with it all. It was hampering my plans all the way thru the holidays. The home they went to is not far from where I live and its a youing married couple with a 3 year ald daughter. I am still paying for their spaying and neuturing thursday. I sent food and their fav toys with them. I cried off n on all day yesterday and the eve i got rid of them. I am feeling better about it now. Tige and Oce are happy and content again and I am less stressed. So send a prayer that they settle into their new home and can have some consistency now for a while. Those poor luvs went thru alot this month.

As to mom, her memory issues are seeming to get worse. Some days I can barely get thru a 10 minute call with her without wanting to scream in frustration. I called the nurse who oversaw her case since she left the hospital and told her mom needs to be assessed again for meds, increase or? If I follow thru and find work back there after the winter, I can moniter her better living in the same town. Part of not keeping the kitties was I realised that I could not do my visits in Redding thru the holidays, worrying about if they were fighting back here, with Tige or Oce, while I was gone.

My back continues to throb constantly, hopefully it will settle down soon. Oh I almost forgot...........Court....." Jag off and his new bride arrived about 15 minutes late. The judge instructed all of us there for small claims to meet with the defendents and see if we could strike a deal before he had to make a ruling. Niether jag off nor I wanted to be stuck in court all day so we agree'd to he pay me 360.00 right there and then and call it a done deal. He said his one daughter is still living with her mom and is still going to court over the allegations of abuse. he is giving up custody of her. The other dsaughter is still having some problems, and he and his wife are still stressed. I was thinking "well duh, cuz yer all jag offs" So the saga is done now with them and the kitties. Time to move on...............

So theres my update for now.................now onto todays old funny email.............

Cowboy Joke...

A lady walks into a bar in Waco. She immediately notices a cowboy with his feet propped up on a table wearing the biggest boots she's ever seen.

She asks the cowboy if it's true what they say about men with big feet being well endowed.

The cowboy grins and says, "Shore is, little lady. Come out to the bunkhouse and let me prove it to you."

The woman's very curious, so she agrees to spend the night with him.

The next morning she hands him a $100 bill.

Blushing, he says, "Well, thankee, ma'am. Ah'm real flattered. Ain't nobody ever paid me fer mah services before."

"Don't be flattered," she replies gruffly. "Use the money to buy yourself some boots that fit!"

Tense Tuesday

Wed, 20 Sep 2006 00:02:39 GMT

Well ya all beat the goal for comments for my bday. Many thanks. My birthday was uneventful. being in a new town, no friends here or family so celebrations were non existent. I over ate on fast food and bought a book to celebrate.

The news of King Toms passing has left me quite down. Ya just never know when the clock runs out. I have been down pretty much since I heard last Wednsday.

The kitty situation here is not going well. The kittens now have tape worms, easy enuff to treat, but again more money. Awoke to poop on the floor pillow in their room. They are now starting to dig at the door in their room and this morning BB took out after my other two cats, yet again. My Tige and Oce are now starting to sneeze on occassionI hope they haven't caught what these two had. So at this point I am 50/50 at wheyther this 4 cat situation is gonna work out.

On top of it all Mom is starting to get real repetitive again with her talking. Asking the same things over and over every time we talk. I know its not her fault, but its annoying As hell and I find myself not wanting to call her every day becouse of it.

Day after tomorrow is court with "jag off" if he even shows.

So no real good news in this blog. Please pray that Tige Oce don't get sick. And of course that my next blog has better news on all fronts. so now onto todays old funny, you'll need it after reading this far

George Carlin's New Rules for 2006:

New Rule for women with tattoos: Just because your tattoo has Chinese characters in it doesn't make you spiritual. It's right above the crack of your ass and it translates to "beef with broccoli." The last time you did anything spiritual, you were praying to God you weren't pregnant. You're not spiritual: you're just high.

New Rule for competitive eaters: Competitive eating isn't a sport. It's one of the seven deadly sins. ESPN recently televised the US Open of Competitive Eating, because watching those athletes at the poker table was just too damned exciting. What's next, competitive farting? Oh wait...they're already doing that. It's called "The Howard Stern Show."

New Rule for candy makers: I don't need a bigger mega M&M. If I'm extra hungry for M&Ms, I'll go nuts and eat two.

New Rule for brides to be: No more gift registries. You know, it used to be just for weddings. Now it's for babies and new homes and graduations from rehab. Picking out the stuff you want and having other people buy it for you isn't gift giving; it's the white people version of looting.

New Rule for posh restaurants: No more bathroom attendants. After I zip up, some guy is offering me a towel and a mint, like I just had sex with George Michael. I can't even tell if he's supposed to be there, or just some freak with a fetish. I don't want to be on your webcam, dude: I just want to wash my hands.

New Rule for young mothers: When I ask how old your toddler is, I don't need to know in months: "27 Months." "He's two," will do just fine. He's not a cheese. And I didn't really care in the first place.

New Rule for AOL: Stop giving me that pop-up ad for classmates.com! There's a reason you don't talk to people for 25 years...you don't particularly like them! Besides, I already know what the captain of the football team is doing these days: mowing my lawn.

New Rule for the Arizona Republic: Stop saying that teenage boys who have sex with their hot, blonde teachers are permanently damaged. I have a better description for these kids: lucky bastards.

New Rule for bored young men: If you need to shave and you still collect baseball cards, you're a dope. If you're a kid, the cards are keepsakes of your idols. If you're a grown man, they're pictures of men.

New Rule for all women: Ladies, leave your eyebrows alone. Here's how much men care about your eyebrows: do you have two of them? Okay, we're done.

New Rule for soft drink manufacturers: There's no such thing as flavored water. There's a whole aisle of this crap at the supermarket, water, but without that watery taste. Sorry, but flavored water is called a soft drink. You want flavored water? Pour some scotch over ice and let it melt. That's your flavored water.

New Rule for the pharmaceutical industry: Stop f---ing with old people. Target is introducing a redesigned pill bottle that's square, with a bigger label. And the top is now the bottom. And by the time grandpa figures out how to open it, his ass will be in the morgue. Congratulations, Target, you just solved the Social Security crisis.
.............................................................

Warm as hell Wednsday

Wed, 13 Sep 2006 23:34:11 GMT

Thanks for the helpful advice regarding BB's (Beautiful Boys) pooping issue. Since I removed blanket and comfortor he has stuck to the litter box. I have 3 litter boxes for 4 cats and they are kept clean thruout the day. I am fastidious about that.

Well the socialization continues. For the most part its going well. Oce and CG (Cutey girl) even kissed noses this morning. BB still focuses too much on Tige and Oce as a threat. I took the 2 little ones in today for their shots. They were excellent thru the whole ordeal. They go back in toward the end of the month and get fixed, then a week later they get their booster shots. Wish I could post a pic of them on here, but I haven't found my digital camera since I moved hereI had their nails trimmed today as well, I am scratched all to heck from their sharp little claws climbing me etc. BB takes issue if I munch on Peanut m n m's around him, he growls and starts slinking around me, must sound like I'm crunching kitty bones or something? CG likes to lay on my mouse pad with her chin on the keyboard, while I'm on the computer. Makes doing things on here difficult, but she likes being close to me

In other news.........Mom is doing well, we talk daily. Once these kitties are settled I will go visit with her the next few months. My Nephew got his drivers license and hads his own car now and drives to school.

My birthday is Saturday. The big 45. No special plans as funds are tight, speaking of which, The sherrifs apparently onely made one attem,pt to serve "jag off" and when he wasn't around, considered it not worth going back. So I called him myself and told him of the court date and mailed him a copy of the summons.

Weather here has been in the 100's the past few days. hence todays blog title. Hello Mother nature??????This is Fall, not summer!!!!!!!!!!!

Well over the next few days I shall update my blog friends lists on here. I have new ones to add, and old ones to switch around.

As to my Birthday wish for my blog friends out here? 26 comments is my record for an entry. Lets break that record for my Birthday shall we? Hey its the little things in life right?

Ok onto todays old funny email.................

two elderly people living in Trailer Estates Mobile Home Park,
he was a widower and she a widow, had known each other for a number of
years. One evening there was a community dinner in the Clubhouse.

The two were at the same table, across from one another. As the meal
went on, he took a few admiring glances at her and finally gathered the
courage to ask her, "Will you marry me?"

After about six seconds of 'careful consideration, she answered, "Yes.
Yes, I will."

The meal ended and, with a few more pleasant exchanges, they went to
their respective places.

Next morning, he was troubled. "Did she say 'yes' or did she say 'no'?"
He couldn't remember. Try as he might, he just could not recall. Not
even a faint memory. With trepidation, he went to the telephone and called her. First, he
explained that he didn't remember as well as he used to. Then he
reviewed the lovely evening past. As he gained a little more courage, he
inquired, "When I asked if you would marry me, did you say 'Yes' or did you say
'No'?"

He was delighted to hear her say, "Why, I said, 'Yes, yes I will' and I
meant it with all my heart." Then she continued, "I am so glad that you
called, because I couldn't remember who had asked me."
