WELL, ANOTHER POST OF NOTHING TO SAY; IT IS FINALLY BEGINNING TO WARM UP, THE SNOW WILL MELT AND WE'LL BE ABLE TO SEE THE DRIVEWAYS, SIDEWALKS AGAIN. THIS SNOW HAS BEEN OVERWHELMING TO ME. CAR STUCK IN DRIVEWAY, DEPENDING ON OTHERS FOR RIDES TO WORK; IT'S GETTING HARDER TO GET AROUND, FELT LIKE INDEPENDENCE WAS SLIPPING AWAY, NOT A GOOD FEELING. I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO SPRING, FLOWERS, BUDDING TREES, BIRDS SINGING; BLUE SKIES, SOUNDS FAB O LUSS ; THINGS KEEP CHANGING, EVERYONE, AND EVERYTHING GETTING OLDER, REMEMBERING THE PAST, FEARING THE FUTURE; TIME MARCHES ON.....

Lots of snow today, thankfully my sister volunteered to take me to and pick me up from work, its nice to know I have someone to help me out. Driving in snow makes me nervous; Not as cold today as the past few days, it was bitter; hear we're gonna have an early spring, which is fine, but don't want a hot summer. Want to get some new planting in this spring, & try to spruce up the outside of my abode, it needs it. Esp. since my neighbors yard is picture perfect : ( trying to get it together to do my taxes; get the house in order, and just more organized; that would be nice....

what do you think about Glen Beck? Donald Trump? illegal immigration? George W Bush? Garth Brooks? Catholic confession? hollywood?

well, Christmas is over and i regret not seeing christmas lights, not getting everything done early so i could enjoy it more, not seeing enough christmas specials, etc, ah well, maybe next year. back to the real world of working and wishing christmas was ahead instead of behind. the new year is upon us, i wonder what it will bring? i wonder who will leave us, and who will join us? i wonder if new year resolutions will last, wishes will come true, people will be happier, more content. i hope for a world of peace, love, understanding, forgivness, togetherness, health, happiness. i hope i have tootie for another year!

well, it's almost december 22, i can't believe christmas is almost here. hasn't seemed like christmas, i guess because it's been so warm. and i guess that's why i let things go and now i have so much to do, not enough time to do them all, and then i complain about it, but then when it's all over, i am sad, and wish it were all ahead of me again. happens every year, and i always say next year will be different. next year will be the same. that's life. this is the first year i didn't put up any christmas decorations. i love christmas decorations. i haven't seen the lights yet, hope i will, i have been listening to christmas music tho, am looking forward to seeing the little ones open presents.

Tonight at work we had a conversation about butt paste! And bag balm, a paste farmers use on cow utters before milking, it is very good for human skin, softens, and helps prevent diaper rash too. Butt paste is sold at Target, very good for incontinent people, babies, etc. Isn't that a funny name? People always laugh at these two things, but hey, if it works, why not? Balm me up scottie!!!! Tootles

well here is another post, how's my font? i have a lot to learn about the computer world, blogs, etc. my daughter is helping me. Speaking of my daughter I was over there the other day babysitting the beans, when it was time to go, i went to my car and found gallons of oil poured all over it. Apparantly the catapillars across the street, spewed oil everywhere , since i can't smell, i asked my daughter what it was, since if it was gasoline, i might not otta start the engine! anyhow, the next day i went to give the gents a piece of my mind, but they were not there, so i headed off to the car wash and to my surprise after the wash, i realized i left the back window cracked, so all the soapy stuff got all over the back seat! I wanted to give the bill to those fellows, but then realized i threw it away at the car wash! PAWDY???? I do have good luck. Snow is on the ground here, it's freezing out, (I actually have my heat on 69!), and it's still cold in here. Guess this years heating bill will be outa sight. hi ho hi ho it's off to work i go. TWMA

Today is the first snow of the season, as I was leaving work tonight it was lightly snowing and it made me feel good, Christmas is good, good feelings of happy times gone by, memories and all. I love everything about it, the lights, the crisp air, the music, but especially the memories....I want all my grandbabies to love Christmas and have it be magical for them. To have wonderful memories to cherish and to return to, when they're older and need comfort, it will bring smiles ; Silent Night Holy Night, All is calm, All is bright.

well, what do you know i finally uploaded a picture to my blog, miracles never cease. this is my beloved cat TOOTIE who makes me feel all warm and fuzzy! She loves me and likes to be "right with her mammy", as i always tell her. Here she is laying on my bible, she loves to do that when i read. thank you tunky for helping me with my puter questions, maybe sometime i can bring it over and you can show me stuff

well, i made it thru the day, the long long long tiring draining day. it was a good day, but i am spent. lots of driving from the far east to the far west back far east again, i was glad to be back on my perch! our family celebrated thanksgiving at my sisters today. all my grandbabies were there, my sisters grandbabies, my sisters godchildren, lots of children! that made my sister happy! they all had fun , and the adults had fun watching them. the food was great, i missed my turn coming home in the dark, i can barely see in the dark, and i get all nervous driving at night, but we made it. now my body hurts, i think i must have pulled a muscle in my chest from lifting the babies or something, cause it hoot! i ate the plate of food i brought home to have tomorrow! i am looking forward to a good nights sleep, (if it happens, will be the first time in years!) and lounging all day tomorrow on my couch , watching tv or whatever. I'M OLD! well, it's late and i'm off to beaver land! toodles

Well today i am baking pies and things for our celebration at Etar's tomorrow, I have been havinag mishaps in the kitchen, namely, burning up pots! I put some soup on to heat, forgot about it, burned it all up, pan and all, house filled with smoke, it was awful, choking on the fumes and opening windows to air it out all day long. I was told that my clothes smelled like burnt pan! Then a couple of days later, I did the same thing with another pan, burned the whole thing up, that's 2 pans down the drain, no smoke everywhere tho, i thought i had turned the burner off, but i didn't! Needless to say my smoke detectors are not working, and being that i can't smell, it could be a very dangerous thing. Any way, i am using my timer every time i use the stove to remind me ! Pawdy? Beautiful day again, 60 degrees the next week or so.

i survived the work day. it was a quiet night, i was surprised to see my daughter bring me some of her thanksgiving food, along with my sister. we had a nice visit. i should be baking pies now for saturday, but here i sit at my computer. there was a christmas movie playing on the tv at work, an old one, with bing crosby and rosemary clooney , it made me feel good. well, TWMA

HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE! I HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A BLESSED DAY AND ARE TRUELY THANKFUL FOR ALL YOUR BLESSINGS. IT IS A BEAUTIFUL DAY HERE IN INDY, 60 DEGREES AND FULL OF SUNSHINE. ALL MY GRANDBABIES ARE BEAUTIFUL AND HEALTHY, AND HAPPY. I WISH FOR EVERYONE TO THINK AS CHILDREN DO, TODAY, FOR THEN WE CAN BE CAREFREE ONCE MORE ! :)

it's been a long time since i've blogged, i can't get used to writing things down. but today i was inspired by my grandson Jonah who was eating lunch, and promptly placed a pea in his left nostril. No one saw this, but when I saw him whipmering and puting his finger up his nose, i wondered . So his mother took a look and sure enough, there is was! Papa got some tweezers and Mama gently removed the pea. Jonah was very cooperative through it all, Whew! so glad a trip to the ER didnt happen, Needless to say, Mama will be VERY careful with Jonah and peas from now on! But it will be a funny story to tell him when he's older!

i have sinus, sore throat, swollen glands, sweats, taking all kinds of supplements, which i have NOT taken in a while, which explains why i'm sick, why can't i just accept this and continue to take all these pills???? i have very vivid and exhausting dreams. i like them and don't like them, can never remember all of them, but they are pawdy. usually about my family, usually about someone trying to hurt me, or i'm trying to escape, which is why i'm exhausted when i wake up. still sleeping on my sofa, which in why my neck hurts, will try to sleep in my bed soon..... i guess, i don't really want to. have been sleeping or staying on my sofa until time to go to work. i guess i am trying to conserve energy for all the folks who zap it while i'm there ! toodles.

sunday night; hot, getting hotter; waiting for fall; will schedule roofer; will do laundry, clean house; one more day before a break; vegging on couch under fan watching nothing on tv with tootie; thinking about war, israel, the end of time, suffering, rapture, 2nd coming ,what Jesus is thinking now; wishing he would come and sit on the couch with me (and bring my mother and dad with him) and have a nice long talk

hi folks! remember that dude on tv, indy residents?? well, just finished another exhausting , disgusting day at work, and i'm glad i'm off tomorrow. Tomorrow will be the final day of hail damage estimates on the house, and hopefull i can make a well informed and intelligent decision. I hate making them. Not good at it, i always wonder if it is the right one, oh well, ..... 2 days ago, my sisters ex husband's brother died, age 45, of cancer, had a brain tumor and lived with it, a long time, but finally it got him and he has 2 small children, it's very sad, a lot of people have been dying around me lately, and it brings all the mystery and questions of life after........if only we knew what to expect, how much easier it would be on us all. thats a question i will ask God. well, nothing else to say, i wonder if tunky has made her curtains yet?? or if the beans demanded all her time today????????????????

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY ! CAN ANYONE TELL ME WHY I CAN'T VIEW ANYTHING I POST FOR 2 DAYS AFTER I POST IT ??????

It's Sunday again, nice calm quiet morning. I thought I would water my flowers, since it was scorching yesterday and I forgot. So I get ready to go outside, slide my foot in my shoe and felt a wet slimy present from my cat, yes she barfed in my shoe ! I have never experienced that in life, saw it it scenes on tv, movies, but now i can say I have had the experience! Thank you TOOTIE! Waiting for laundry to get done, and deciding when to shower, not looking forward to going into work this afternoon. Thinking about the 4th and wondering if anyone is going to celebrate, half of me wants to, the other wants to hang out on my couch/bed and while the hours away. It's going to be 90 today (hate that)that means hot at work, as the AC never quite works right. Thinking about my sister Linda who might be christened into the Catholic Church today, except she came over at midnight last night and said she has nothing to wear. Except this Eastern type of Catholic Church calls it something else, besides christened, can't think of the word. I wonder if she did it? Something inside me doesn't want her to. But Father Sid is putting the pressure on, little does he know that even if she does, she wants to go to other churches too, closer to her home ! She is quite unique. My dinger is dinging, the eggs are done for my tuna and or egg salad. Lori is having Spencer's 2nd b d party today, I have tons of housework to do, and I hear Tootie wretching, so off I go on a Puke mission. Such is the everyday life of ME Toodles !
