SHEs Organized

What are you wondering about these days?

I'm wondering how I'll survive the week.

My bad headache from yesterday stayed with me through the night.

I'm sure it is due to stress. I'm also sure that once ds is actually gone, I'll be fine. I think the stress is due to dreading hugging him goodbye at the airport.

I'm up. Unloaded the dishwasher and started a load of laundry. I need to s2s before putting it out on the line and I hear it is in its final spin now.

Have 2 more loads of my things to do and a load of ds's. I'm doing his laundry right now because I desperately want to do things for him to let him know that he's part of my heart.

I'll see dd for about an hour tonight which will be a bright spot in my day. I also need to phone my minister friend and find out if I'm visiting him on Sunday. He doesn't do email and I don't do phone calls so communication between us is tentative.

I really need to be faster out of the gate in the morning. I've been up since seven, but am just now getting down to business. I have lots OMM today and just realized I need to be out of here in an hour and fifteen minutes.

-breakfast
-walk ddogs around the block (wet, damp, misty outside but they will want to get out...)
-clear kitchen counters
-make the bed
-s2s

Twins, I'm the slowest horse out of the gate!

(Kathryn). Understand. I remember standing in the corner crying the day my DD moved out of the town to the center of the state....and she was only going 3 hours away. Then I thought she wanted some space and I didn't call or write, and she was suffering with home-sickness. At least you and your dson will be doing email, right?

We have a steady rain this morning again. I went out on the porch to have my coffee and watch the rain, like a lady of leisure(!) and had to come back in for my jacket. It was 72° and breezy. Look out East Coast, this is coming your way and worse this weekend!

I have dishwasher running and I am S2S but nothing else started/done yet. I must finish at my desk first, and then see what I'm in the mood to do.

Good Morning!

I am on schedule and making a showing in each timeslot. Not perfection - just an honest effort.

I am wondering about people who get pets and then let them roam free. I frustrated with neighbors dogs. Actually I am frustrated with the neighbors not taking care of their dogs and letting them run free. I'm guessing this is growing pains from the local housing development. People move "to the country" and act differently than they would in town. The housing developments are in city limits, our land is not. Even though there is only a fence separating us, the rules are different. Their dogs come into our pasture and get the livestock running and our dogs upset. I've repeatedly told the neighbors what their dogs are doing, but they continue to let their dogs run free. What are our choices? We can wait for the donkey to kick and probably kill their dogs. We can wait for their dogs to hurt the livestock which at that point we will immediately put the dogs down (Permanently). None of those are options are good ones. I don't want to hurt their dogs......I want the owners to take care of them and keep them where they belong!!! grrrrr.....

its hard ((())) d kathryn sending lots of support and hugs

hi d okay

Hi d twins

Hi d harmony and all that follow.

I havent started the race because I was "horsing" around. Actually feeling cranky... no reason just a happy grumpy cranky type of thing. sounds silly but I am enjoying my crankiness - also making sure d family knows I am cranky and need that space one needs when you feel like this. yes it is happy cranky... hope every one gets the idea that today is the day to just let me wallow in my grumpiness! (maybe it's getting closer to halloween and I need to get my scary on!)

Morning ya'll...

Yesterday I went to see my PA because I've been having sinus headaches and just haven't felt well. I've been going to Niesha...she's an India's decendant..for several years. We have a great relationship and are friends.

When Niesha came in the room she as asked what was going on and I told her. Niesha told me to get up on the examination table and open my mouth. When she put the light in to check my throat she "YELLED" OMG...not something you want to hear from a medical person...and I about jump off the table.

I looked at her and said..not quietly I might add..whats wrong, whats wrong. It was at that point she realized she had scared both of us. Niesha told me I had a massive sinus infection. She asked me how long I had been feeling bad. I told her several weeks.

Niesha went on to do the rest of the exam. After she was done she said...Honey, you must have an incredible tolerance to pain. I don't know how you can be standing here. She sent my pharmacy a bunch of prescriptions and told me to go home and go to bed.

Before I left, Niesha hugged me and said... Next time don't fool me like that... You look way too good to be so sick. I love that girl.

I just ate a bit of breakfast so I could take my meds, and now I'm going back to bed. Cy'all later.

Good Morning, Villagers! It's 51*, partly sunny, will be 62* for a high with 20% chance of showers today. It looks so cold outdoors.

Wednesday Wondering is a good one and so fitting for me today! I'M WONDERING WHEN OUR BAD LUCK WILL END! That's what I wonder! First:

- The capacitor to the submerged pump needed to be replaced, so we could get water pressure and later, so we could get water! We had to pay for a new capacitor, a new box, new wiring, and a new gauge.
- DH was "trying" to fix the master shower door, with a hammer on a hinge doo-hickey and BAM! The shower door went into a zillion pieces! Thank God he was NOT hurt. But he cleaned up one bad big stinking mess of glass, and we have to pay for a new door to be installed. This happened when 2 grandsons were here to also shower in the master bathroom, where the broken door was, so we all 4 had to use the guest/main tub shower instead. (At least we had THAT one!)
- Then, DH was traveling to Seaside, OR to get my horse trough-turned-planter and Dad's memorial bench, from my Dsis. He had Dgson-16.5 with him, he made it 20 min. out and the truck was smoking really BAD! Had to come home, then that week get $400 worth of repairs done on his truck!
- Then, the alarm to the septic 3-tank system kept going off, DH turned it off, looked in each tank and that's right! We were all back/plugged up! We got them pumped for $600!
- Then, the alarm to the septic needed to be replaced with a new box, new wiring and $300 later, we got that done!
- Then, I got a new med for asthma, which is a inhale steroid and I found out I'm now in the doughnut hole and that bill was about $300!
- Then, DH got the sedan worked on, said it was due, so it's done now.
- Then, the fridge died! We got a new one, Dson took the old one, in hopes to get it repaired.
- Then, right NOW, DH is sitting in front of our NOW-DEAD TV trying to get it to come on and it WON'T! It's about 9 years old. We cannot get a new one because we have property taxes to pay by Halloween, but it's just the last set on the last parcel, so at least we're paying THOSE!

So no new TV for us right now. DH will need to watch TV in the bedroom on the 40" Sony nice TV, which has a better picture on it than the great room one. So this means I'll be able to listen to music and/or the radio in the great room, have quiet for reading, etc... All total, with all of our bad luck things, we've paid $7,000 out since June. Used checking when we could, had to charge when necessary. SO MY WEDNESDAY WONDERING IS, "IS IT EVER GOING TO END?"

With fall b-days coming up for family, with the holidays coming, we'll just pull in that belt tighter and pray nothing else goes wrong. At least my physical and lab work were 100% great and I'm healthy and normal! When we have our health and loved ones, that's everything. So, as DH tries to get our probably-dead-now TV to work, I sit here typing this, just shaking my head at what a wild ride it's been since June. There are other expensive things, which occurred in there, too, but to be honest with you, there are so many of them, I've forgotten them all. Maybe it's age or just too much for my brain to remember. At least we're alive and kicking, have a lovely family, and aren't homeless or ill or anything terrible. Just had a run of bad luck, but that's what they call life.
