Mmmm.... chicken breast with bone in roasted in the oven after searing with a roasted garlic rub and butter. Pasta with a herb butter/ sour cream mix. And mushrooms with onion cooked for just a few minutes in the butter/ droppings left in the cast iron skillet the chicken was cooked in.
Two movies to watch is the plans for this afternoon. The Call, and Snitch. And a few movies recorded on the DVR.
Spent the morning doing last load of laundry and 'bagging' my next 45 days of meds. Now the kitchen is cleaned up, time for movies till True Blood comes on later.
Last night was over at Cat's. We went to the opening of a local butcher shop and she got chicken and yeast rolls. I got use two large steaks. Talk about good eating for the 5 of us. Fried tatters, green beans. Mmmm... and Cat had made banana pudding for desert. Great way to start the weekend off.
I put at least half this pasta in a bowl for leftovers. I always cook too much pasta it seems. :( But the chicken breast was given to me by Cat as she doesn't like bone in, purchased by mistake. Got two more in the freezer. :) Might do BBQ next time.
It was even better then it looked.
*happy Rat, jumps on the couch to watch movies the rest of the day*
True friends know you so well that the auto correct doesn't get them lost. :) waiting for city fireworks with a sleepy grumpy little boy at my side. :)
And nose bleed out of the blue. I mean... I am watching TV, playing cards on the laptop...and bam!
Grrrrrr.....
Guess it is saving time for the Ear,Nose and Throat Dr.
Who doesn't agree that Bruce in the movie RED isn't the hottest? Mmm.. and in uniform.. hello sexy.

All I am going to say on the matter is- you do the same actions, block, rate 1's, talk rude to members, journal with name calling and drama starting. Even 'hide' behind profiles to stir trouble up.
Tables turn- and you back track so freaking fast you hit your ass on the ground.
Admins, the same ones who had to defend you for years, are not doing their jobs now that you are being treated the same as you treat others?
What is good for the goose is good for the gander.
Your actions on the site has gotten you here- don't know why you think we are going to give a care for either one of you two. TOS is will be enforced, nothing more. Same as it was when we defended you, told folks your actions are allowed. We dealt with the fall out of your actions for years. Sorry you think we ain't doing our duty.
Rooster has come home to roost, for you both.

Got the birds theme going, ain't I. If only I could flip one at a few...

That's how it is with both sides. They all do the same things then condemn the others. It's so stupid.
Oh yeah, I got the '1 rate' after the tantrum. I was shocked it took this long, specially since all the whining and crying I've seen about rate and blocks by that person before.
And then I see the comment of it's just a website . Are you gawd damned serious? After all the crap I've seen flung around by the parties involved, I can't even believe one of them had the audacity to say that. If it was just a website than one of them would give a flying crap about who said what, and why they said it and so on and so forth.
I am glad I've never been one of those people who follow someone around like some lost puppy because they either gave me a wink or gave me attention. Its sad and pathetic.
Oh wait.. was there attitude in those statements? You're damn right there was. People mistaken me for someone who is constantly nice. Guess the jokes on them, huh?
I never ever made the mistake of thinking you are nice Moonie. Or can I call you cupcake? Bunnie Honey? Peaches?
*runs*
I have a few choice words for you. I'll send them to your inbox. LOL :)
I am so sick of the double standard bullshit. 'So and so did this to me' Even though I've seen both sides pull the same crap. If you can dish it out, deal with getting it back. If you can't then its simple- either keep your mouth shut or go away.
Its the same people, with the same crap, day in and day out. You would think it'd get pretty damn boring always doing the same thing on here- fighting, picking and causing issues. And then whining about it. Christ.
Yeap, life is simple. You are an asshole, don't be shocked when people start being one to you.
And they get to do it, just like you did. Same actions- you wasn't stopped, so why should they be?
Oh wait... it is you and her.... wait... nope, still not against the rules no matter how much you whine, think you are special.
Watched Warm Bodies. Like the zombie makeup, the blue veins. Cute little movie. :D
COMMENTS
I think H said he burned that so we can watch it the next time I am down there. I didn't know if I'd like it or not, but since you say its cute I just might. :D
I enjoyed it too.
I liked how simple the cure for the ailment was. It is nice to see a ZMB movie with a cure for change.
Sitting in the waiting room at the Dr. office, I had a older lady next to me start talking to me when I made the mistake of looking at her as she coughed. Thinking it might be best to move a few seats away if she had a cold, instead I got a half hour story of how her sons, 3 in total, had issues at school.
Mind you they are "all grown up now, got kids of there own even" but still I got to hear how one was bullied on the bus and all his lunch money taken for years. How the middle child was so smart, always a perfect son. And the oldest nothing but trouble.
All the while as I keep looking back at my book, holding it up in front of my face at one point as I try to break in with "Huh.. " "Wow.." "That is nice." "Yes- kids these days.." "No clue why that is.."
Still she kept talking the whole 50 minutes I waited... my book seen as nothing it seems.
COMMENTS
Why did you not pretend to fall asleep woman?
I should of. :) Next time.
Time to crank the AC, do some housework.
Listen to this song and tell me you are still sitting still. Dare ya.
:)
Dr. went well, in a way.
Blood pressure was high, increase in meds from 75 to 100.
Lab work done, with 3, yes 3 pokes. I am a hard stick, and my poor arms tell that tell... o.O
Nose spray, and told to take a over the counter for my allergy. Even as I told the lady my eyes don't itch, nose doesn' run, nothing to lead me to think allergy.
She looked at my nose, see it has some sign of being irated.
If it keeps happening to go see a Eye, Ear, Nose Dr.
So... thanks?
Should of just went to one to start with.
I have been reading about the Paula Deen news. I call bullshit on a lot of the remarks made toward her. Food Network actions just pisses me off as she made that channel in a lot of ways.
See- While I would love to talk about this with others on the site, due to the comments she 'make' at some point in her life, I know not to bring it to the site.
Just say I think she is getting a bum rap.
Southern woman, 60 plus age. The world has changed more then once in her life time.
And all the good that she has done is gone now because she told the truth under oath.
COMMENTS
What I dislike, was that they are brushing her apology under the "rug", as if it did not happen. It did, and unlike many celebrities, hers appeared to be sincere.
I will comment here - she is the age of my parents. They grew up when segregation was still happening. Civil rights movements were just barely on the horizon. When desegregation happened, she would have been about the life stage of raising her own children. She was raised in a different time.
With that said, she probably has made racial statements in the past, I know my parents have.
BUT - they do not NOW. They have grown and changed with the world. Do they sometimes slip up...yes but not nearly as bad as when they were young.
Paula Deen has not said anything out of the way in anything I have seen. The answers given did seem to indicate PAST comments. If she doesn't do them now...I do not think they should be held against her.
We all grow and change and everyone deserves a second chance. AND this IS the land of free speech, unless I missed the memo and that has changed too.
See- I am with you Birdy. The comment that was made in this case, if I am not wrong, is about a Civil War wedding planning. She said she wanted the waiters for the dinner to be dress like the period style. From what I have read she used the word "Black servers."
Paula worked at a bank in her younger years. A robber came in and rob it, sticking a gun in her face during it. He was a African American. It changed her life, she became a shut in for years after that in fear. So when she was asked if she ever used a "Word" she told the truth, and that she said it in anger.
My parents was born in the late 1920's. And as yours, they both have seen so many changes, and have grown with the times.
I totally agree , I think shes getting unfair treatment ..she grew up in a different time different world .. She apologized and it was heart felt .
She was under oath and refused to lie and so they are going to burn her at the stake over it. Funny how easy most would have found it to lie but she believed in the truth and told it. Any person of her generation that hasn't used a derogatory name is either a saint or a liar. She has shown no indication of racism until one person saw a chance to file a charge and to get money for nothing. Paula didn't get her day in court she's going to be tried by the popular press, at least until someone else makes enough news to get them to move on to more destruction.
I am southern, amnd I agree with the KY girls. That time was a different time, and she is a little younger than my parents, so I grew up hearing that kind of thing. I never USED that language, because I found it offensive, but it did occur. She apologized, after telling the TRUTH about something obviously painful for her, that should have been enough.
It amazes me that the guy who does resturaunt impossible can lie on his resume, and still be employed, and this happens.
Blah blah blah and blah blah blah...
And I want a nap.
I HATE heat.
Damn Cat... I so want grilled pineapple right now. She made me try some last night, with me doing the "I hate pineapple. Way way too sour for me."
But her sister said fresh was so different, taste changes, it is not sour.
So I tried a little before she grilled it, like it but still ended up with a pucker on my lips.
Then she grilled it...
Thinking it is going to be my new favorite food.
:)

*yells* See See :)
I swear I can hear that all the way over here, the whole 2 miles we live apart. *sigh*
Fine- you was right, I was wrong. Bite me.

I have never had it grilled but I love fresh pineapple it is my absolute favorite and I usually find myself buying a box of chunked pineapple to have with my lunch at work everyday but I didn't go grocery shopping this week and they forgot my pineapple...darn. It is delicious.
when they're ripe pineapple is deliciously sweet and juicy
when they're in season the hawaiians bring me some at work... yuuum

Ok- some photos of the remodel. I live in a trailer, rent free, that belongs to my sisters. I haven't touched it as far as paint in over 20 years, not really updated much at all. For one reason is I don't want to sink the money into new flooring, and the carpet is not in that bad of a shape as I moved into the trailer only a few years after they purchased it.
So- front bathroom went from dark green lace curtains used for shower curtain dec, shades of green towels. The walls went from flat white that I painted the peach wall color print up those 20 years ago.
Cat gave me the shower curtains, and a few orange towels, cream color walls and white ceiling paint. And just de-cluttered.
Then the living room. Now this room has one wall of panel that I would not paint. The other walls was a brown specked on tan background like wallboard. The ceiling had 'wood' boards/ trim.
The dark green couch/ loveseat set was given to me by my sister a few years ago. I also purchased the lined brown curtains. So dark... so the updated was needed. New pillows, recliner given to me by Cat. I really love the ceiling now, you just can't think of the difference unless you have been in my home and know what it was like before.
Now onto my bedroom. I have a cherry bedroom set. Same brown curtains. I have really started to love blue and brown a few years ago. If it wasn't for the green couch I would have it in my living room. So why not my bedroom? I knew I had to lighten the room up as the same brown/ tan wallboard was in this room. And the olive green bed linens was really making it more a cave. So I went with a fresh paint job to bring as much light in as I could, new bedspread, and two lampshades. I plan to put a orange throw at the end of the bed at some point.
In the day light this room is so light, so pretty. As is my bathroom. Always wanted a blue bathroom. Got it! Cat helped me pick the color out, and I painted it myself. In fact other then the ceiling in the living room/ kitchen/ and my bedroom I did the painting. :)
I was a little shocked by the blue- thinking I was going to hate it. Of course I painted it in the dark, the next morning sunlight made me fall in love with it. :D
The shower curtain rod is giving me issues- can't get the dang thing to tighten up. But you get the look I am going for. :) Cat's Sis gave me a white light to put in the bathroom, thinking by the sink. It is a small night light white frosted one that I still need to put in there. White towels, some trim, a plug cover I broke taken off.. finish touches is still needed. But it has come a long way from the flat white paint job of 20 years ago. The rose/ pink/ purple color theme is gone.
So a few more things like trim being replaced, a wall repair in my bedroom at the floor, and about 20 small repair jobs I need to do to say it is done.
Then it is the front bedroom which I have a mustard bedspread, oak bedroom set. I am going to paint the walls the ivory color with white ceiling. I want to do a touch of gray in there. But that is in the Fall time.
COMMENTS
It looks so warm and cosy. :o
Nice...
I really like the bathrooms and the white ceiling throughout the place.
The white ceiling really changed the living room/ kit area. Getting rid of the 'wooden' boards on it just lighten the place up so much. Thanks ladies. :D
I LIIIIKE It
;D Glad to hear Otter as you have been in my home. Connie and her sister loved it too, Nita hasn't been over to see it yet tho.
You certainly know how to make a house a home. It's very warm and inviting and seems very spacious.
I have been in your house, and the change is amazing. Good job, girlie- can't wait to spend the night again.
Excessive use of illegal drugs, such as cocaine.
O.o I wish!
Well, no. Not really. But you know what I mean.
Guess I will start turning on the humidifiers more often. I don't have a cold, itchy nose, haven't had to blow it in months. Can't think of any other reason from what I am reading. Maybe just dried out is all.
COMMENTS
It could also be irritants in the air (like dust).
Only thing that has changed is painting in the home. That might be it since they started about the same time I started to paint. But all of the painting is done now.
:) Thanks for the info.
damnit woman, I told you snorting blow out of hookers ass cracks would only lead to trouble! :P
LOL :D I lus ya.
Ok- time to start reading up why one has nose bleeds.
:(
Summer Solstice. Longest day of the year. You know what that means, right? Mean the days start getting shorter after today and the darkness grows.
:D
We still have 2 months of heat ahead of us, then Fall is in the air in our area.
COMMENTS
We are just starting to get summer weather. My guess is we have three months of it being nice before the fall comes here.
I thought that days are longer in summer, because the sun gets down later.
So the new guy who worked 4 day did come to work today after not showing yesterday. Reason- "I was to damn sore to even get out of bed. I mean- I laid in bed, couldn't move."
Ok ok... I would of went with the sickness as he turned a few shades of white on the last day of the office move the other day.
But he told the truth at least.
Of course he got to hear the comments from the two who worked in 100 heat index for 12 hours making up for him not showing on a big job with a man short.
And just how sore they were this morning.
*sigh*
Glad it is Friday. I want a drink, pool, and nothing else to get on my nerves after 5:00 pm today.
COMMENTS
Did he call in sick, or just not show? Not showing without ringing would have REALLY got him in my bad books.
No call, never answered the phone when I called. I wrote him off but he was here when I got to work, 20 mins before work time.
Friend of one of the guys here, he told me he 'texted' him yesterday morning to say he wasn't working that day. When he asked why not? big job on the books- he didn't reply.
So.... we will see.
Rat sits, claws at keyboard, letting her eyes slide over to the side to look at the bunnie at her own keyboard.
"So what you going to have for lunch?" bunnie ask, turning her chair to face the Rat, one hand still on the keyboard. She yawns, looking all relaxed and bored.
"Thinking maybe some cheese on toast, might grill it.." Rat stops as bunnie moves in lightening speed, pounding on her keyboard. Rat pulls up the Who's Online page, click on a new profile..and lets out a cuss word.
"Got it! So that is what? Me 400 spam profiles and you... 5?" "Oh we are closer then that you carrot eating fur ball." "Cheese eater." "Big ears" "Stinky" Rat growls, showing teeth as Bunnie opens her mouth in a O, letting out a "OOooooo" as she covers her mouth with her paw.
"Don't make me come in there!" Images yells from her office behind them.
Huffing, Rat turns back to her keyboard, waiting for the next spam profile, getting back to playing the game of "Whack a Spammer" with Bunnie.
COMMENTS
o.o Gooooo Bunnie....
See what you did!! Now I have to get to my own kitchen and cook :-(
Rattie just has her tail in a knot over the fact that I can whack faster than her. >:)
Oh please... as you wrote that I got another one, fluffy tail.
Honestly girls....can't you just get rid of ALL of them at the same time? Sort of a GROUP KILL?
Negative. Such a …well.. negative word. I know a young man who is so negative about his life- no money, no nice car, no home, bitch of a girlfriend, no job that he likes. Everyday it is something. And you can’t say anything to him without the negative comments comes toward you. If you asked him what he did that weekend it would be “What with? I don’t have any money.” “The bitch started on me the second I walked into the door..”
If you can’t find any good things in your life, I don’t think any good things will come to your life. I mean- what about a sunrise or sunset? Those are free. How about a nice cold drink of water? Free. Hell- Enjoy the cancer sticks you spend money on even. Just try and find something to enjoy.
You wake up, go to sleep with that kind of energy in your life it will never get any better.
Is there anything better then pork and cast iron? I think not. :)
That and a big plate of salad, fresh vegs, tomatoes, and pecan to finish it off.
Mmmmm... I love manager's specials at our local food store meat department.
Joli is someone I love seeing signing on to the site. He angel avatar makes me smile. Just to know such goodness is in the world makes me happy. :)
Reason I stayed on VR for all these years? Few members keep me here and she and her hubby are two of them.
While he isn't on as much these days, I will always see Stabb as a person I call a friend.

Well...I guess she has to get motivation from somewhere...
Hmmm... second bloody nose when I woke up this morning. Took a hour to get it to stop. :(
Last one was less then a month ago.
o.O
Blood pressure was fine tho.
COMMENTS
Is it dry there? I get them sometimes because the air is super dry. They totally suck. Put some tampons up your nose. lol
To call a nose bleed annoying is a severe understatement to me. I started getting them when I was 10 years old, though haven't gotten one in over 4 years. Apparently in my case, breaking my nose fixed that problem....lol
Not dry, and I use a mister in my bedroom. Thinking maybe the paint might of set them off?? Don't know really. But 3rd one will have me going to the Dr.
Cat and her sister came over out of the blue to visit, wanting to see the paint job. While I was laying about, just doing some laundry, they really liked the updates. I will take photos at some point, when I get the house cleaned up first.
Friday we had a game changer happen to our family. My older sister who lives out of town, was fired from her job of 20 plus years. It threw us all for a loop, and still dealing with the fallout.
Brings home to me that I really need to save more money. She faces her house payment and it is the family's place to help her out on bills till she gets on her feet again.
Friday I purchased some items for the new look at my home and going to return a few things. While I didn't buy more then I wanted, I didn't need it. So a trip back to Walmart will return towels, baskets, rugs, etc.
I will keep the lampshades and shower curtain as you can't get them local. And as they came from online it would mean paying shipping fees back. But the local things are going back.
But blessed, as always. Family makes you feel that, see what is the important things in life. It is not white towels, it is a sister who needs to know she has someone at her back to help, to hold her up.
My family, and friends, know that.
COMMENTS
OH MY.....
Damn, honey. I am so sorry. If I can help...
That's the best part of good family and friends when you really need them they got your back even beyond petty fussing and all.
If everyone learned this and nothing more, we'd still be miles ahead of where we are. Love you!
True Blood night. :D
Think it is time to do the last load of sheets and call it a day on housework.
Maybe fix popcorn to watch the show later.
So looking forward to this night.
Run went well. I got the movie late so that meant I just drove to the delivery as I would of only had 4 hours if I drove the 200 miles back home, then back.
So I made a bed after lowering the back seats down... and my hips hate me right now. Hard plastic is not my friend. Back hurts, knees, but it is the hips that hate me most.
I have driven close to 800 miles since Wen morning, yeap...back hurts too.
My battery is about run out as I could only sleep about half a hour at a time before the pain woke me.
So time for a sleeping pill, and bed for me soon. I have so much to catch up on, at work, family, and home. And sis wants some time in the pool too. I need to be up early in the morning to do what I can get done before that time.
How the fuck do you 'spread' a throw on a couch and make it look like the ones on DIY shows?
Grrrrr.... Mine keep looking like it was pitched on the couch. lol
COMMENTS
Egon and Winston volunteer to help!
Lord knows what that will look like o.O
Send to me! The throw would be nothing to me if I had them to play with. :D
Hahaha right i have that same problem ..
Move finished up, went well. And I gave my two men nice tips for all the hard work on Wen, in the heat.
Now to rest up as I have work tonight. :) Which is good as I got the bill today for paint. And I still have to pay my painter too.
This job should cover at least half those bills.
Long ass day. One man didn't show up at all, one was 45 mins late after we did a wake up call. *sigh*
But when he got to work, him and the other man who was on time, worked like dogs. Really- dogs. 100 heat index, hottest day of the year.
It was a long hard day - would of been with three men. Two? Never got done even after 13 and a half hours, in the heat.
I am going to bed.....
Got a new man coming in the morning, let's hope he works out.
Days like today make me ask myself why the hell I am still doing this shit. Really- it was 50/ 50 when I was freaking asked being paid. Now I just ask myself... WHY???
Use to get up this early for work two or three times a week, work a hard 9 or 10 hours.
But now... I am like Otter.
I hate early mornings.
*sigh*
But hope we have a 12 or 14 hour day as it is the only job we have had this week.
So thinking- beige carpet, antique white walls, white ceiling, cherry furniture, robin egg blue lampshades on dark lamps.
Now a few shades of blue darker bedspread. A few throw pillows of pale blue, and one that is a pattern of blue, dark blue, green.
Is it strange to think a pop of color of a orange throw whould be bad?
Hmmm....

The next time anyone bitches about an ad on this site- I am going to send them to Walmart.com.
The store from Hell..... is the same online.

=o Would this be a good time to advertise that I'm premium and I don't get shitty ads. XD
:) Yeap, best way to get rid of them.
I think Walmart is kinda cool... but is that because I've never actually been there? :P
The thought of a store selling groceries, clothes and entertainment/home living stuff is crazy!
Like it was passed on to me if you are using Google Chrome or Firefox / Mozilla . Add the extension adblock or adblock plus . I do not get the ads anylonger
You tell them sugar.... I"m going to walmart lol
Or send them to PeopleofWalmart.com That way they can be traumatized! :D
And here I thought the site was worse...lol
The ads here are like some of the people who message me.... easily ignored lol
Painter just left. :) He is a good guy, one I have known for about 18 years, we was talking about today.
Home is done but for the guest room, which is more a storage room so I have to clean it out before that room is done.
My bedroom looks so much better, as does the living room. Just have to give my bedroom a few hours drying time before I go in and move the furniture back. He helped me move my dresser/ chest. But I had the bed, nightstand, 2 lingerie chest, jew chest, chair, and sofa table moved and covered before he showed up so I told him I would be able to move them back into place.
As well as hang the drapes back, dust, vac, clean the windows, etc. In other words...
I might just wait a hour. ;) Got to much to do to sit.. way too much.
But all in all- the update is done. :D Few last little nick pick things, but I seem to always have those. lol
Painter was here right on time, and 5 hours later my living room ceiling is done, the wooden 'boards' that divided the ceiling is no more. All nice and white, blending in with the off white walls. :D
I cleaned both bathrooms from top to bottom, put everything back in it's place, hand scrub the tubs, toilets, and floors. Cleanest the home has been in ... years? Sure, years.
lol
He is to be back in the morning for my bedroom. I plan to help him roll the wall color, leaving him the cutting in and ceiling in there. But first order of business in the morning is cleaning the kitchen up some. I broke a light bulb, and I need to finish mopping the kitchen floor.
Got a shower curtain, towels, and a few things to buy as I go along but the home is getting it's update.
Now to get a shower, cleaning my tub as I do, then off to get another gallon of ceiling white paint as one wasn't enough it seems. Then to Birdy's to feed her cat as her and Mr. Birdy is out of town. Going to drag Cat *Nightgame* with me to keep me company.
:) She came over to see the bathroom blue and made me bring the light bulb, so it is the least she can do.
hahhaha...
Luvs ya sis.
COMMENTS
I hate that you broke the bulb but honest to god those things had to be cleaned or replaced. Thanks too for helping break in the food processor and none of us lost a finger. woo hoo!
See? You come over and it's "clean the light bulbs..." Good lord woman... you should see under my bed. I have got to clean it out, try to vac under it now that it is moved.
Wait you mean you don't vac under your bed?
even I'm not that big a clean freak, a couple times a year is all I do that job
My bathroom is painted. :) Now just to clean the floor, put everything back in place in the morning as the painter starts on the living room/ kitchen area pitched ceiling.
Going to ask him to paint my bedroom too, as I have so much furniture to move and it is way heavy. And I would kick myself if I got paint on my cherry.
But the bathroom is done, the robin egg blue really is a nice shade once it was on all the walls. And the ceiling a nice bright white.
Off this morning to meet with the floor guy. A house we rental dinning room that is carpet, the lady who rents it is fussing about the carpet.
She wants me to have it cleaned like once a month. Tho it is only one stain in the side of the table, that was there when she moved in. And it is not that bad.. rug, rug chick.
But I got fed up with the calls and said "No. I ain't cleaning it again, nor am I replacing it. I am coming in and replacing the kitchen vinyl and the dinning room carpet with new vinyl that looks like hardwood. That is what I am going to do, as I am just throwing money out the door any other way."
She is not happy about the 'mess' that will happen from moving her dinning room set, but pleased with the new flooring.
O.o
Guess I should of told her the front door area, and the bathroom will be done too as I want all the flooring to match. Hey- it is what I would of done if it was empty.
Now I just get the pleasure of being a pain in her ass for once. :)
Friday, had bacon and eggs before work, and going to be in and out all day.
Came home after a long day and cooked a shoulder beef roast that came from the slaughter house from a few towns away. You might remember Cat and I went over and got some meat, this one I frozen. Less then $4.00 and it will make three meals.
And OH MY GODS but it was so good, tender. Taste is wonderful.
I really am going to save up, try and buy half a cow (meat of half a cow) this fall. Fresh meat is so much better.
:) Garden tomatoes with fresh basil with a little olive oil, baked tatter finished it out.
Wonderful meal.
One step forward, two steps back. Seems to be life of late. At least at work.
Going to try and finish the painting in the next few days, weekend.
Really can't wait to have it finished but for the two closets to clean out, then the guest room to paint at the end.
I was looking forward to Otter maybe stopping by as I want to sort my dress hat collection and give her some for her photo shoots. But as I don't see me doing that in this heat, might be closer to Fall.
Either way the plan is to really clean out the guest bedroom closet and try and get rid of a cheap pressword *the only piece in my home* out of that room and move the furniture about some, make room to set up the studio lights I have to take photos with. Be nice to just leave them standing, not have to move them so much.
Rare for me to have guest and when I do I take the smaller guest bedroom, so it will not bother me to leave them up.
Life is good. I know I started this journal on a down note, and it does stuck not having work as it really hurts the guys. I am almost use to making it with the second job income as that is all I have had for a few years now.
But it could be a lot worse off.

We have to count our blessings and see just how lucky we really are.
Start and end with gratitude. It's like the old saying, you attract more bees with honey... I think we're like that too, the happier we are, the more positivity we attract.
I wish I could have stopped by. Our trip was cancelled so I was quite sad. The fall is a possibility though :)
Cleaning out space to paint it is one of the biggest pain in the ass tasks. Glad you're doing well :D
And with that, ladies and Gents, we have next month insurance payment saved away. :D
Long day. Not that hard of a day just early start on little sleep. Which was my fault, just couldn't sleep. But what a nice sunrise.
Today is my mother's 84the birthday. Waiting on a few phone calls then closing the office up and going to the house to see if any cake is left. ;)
I will say one thing about the 'bullies' VR is being accused of...
You are the biggest.
You say you hate bullies, can't stand them, they should be thrown off the site.
But yet you bullied a young boy in his own honor log. You admit to it, proud of it. Brag about it along with the insults to his mother. If you want to point to 'bullies' on this site- if this isn't one, what is?
But see- it is a disagreement between members. We have to live with the same rules, put up with the ugly words you throw around. And unlike other members, we can't fight back, use your name and point fingers.
When you even use the word bullies in your rants I just remember the comments you made to a young boy and think just how fucking two faced you are. Full of lies, rage, and anger. You live in a dream world, still to see the police arrest or serve any Admins on this site. This site you swore last night you were bringing a lawsuit, using a 'judge' friend of yours. Guess we will wait and see how that turns out. Like all your lies- it will go no place but under the list of 'maked up' bullshit. You have a long list of that here.
You are in the same boat as Vlad. At least he is funny. You are a joke that some poor innocent folks think is real. And that is sad, seeing as you use them to get the rage stir up, then just float away to another member to use.
If there is any reason for anyone, and I mean ALL your accounts, should be thrown off here- it is that. You are the bullie you so warn others of.
And yes- we know. We have always known.

Like I said before, these people aren't against bullies, they are against people that don't like them- that's all.
o.o Totally just got that feeling like when I first heard the motto of Anonymous.
Games of Thrones-
What?! Oh shit... that is how those story lines end?
Well....fuck.
Didn't see THAT coming.
I mean... Wow.
Kind of glad I never tried to read the books now.
COMMENTS
I'm getting fed up with the story... Yet can't stop watching it.
I know! It ended with the two folks I liked the best being killed but then.. they showed what was coming up and I was all "Wait- What? I can't miss this next week."
Ahhhh... I love to hate it so badly. ;)
Y'all making me want to watch it just to see what you're talking about...
I have to catch up with the last 3 episodes the first two I missed because I was so sick I did nothing but sleep - tonight I was in the ER for an allergic reaction to something..we never did find out what it was, but at least there is always On Demand with Cable! I will be catching up on them tomorrow.
I got sick of the books for that reason. I dislike reading/watching something where you have no idea on who is going to live/die, but then again, in Game of Thrones... it's so... personal. The book is written from many different perspectives AND I'M STILL WAITING FOR CERCEI TO FREAKING DIE.
GAH.
I wonder when folks complain about members here contacting them outside of the site- how that works?
I mean- I don't let my email out. I don't give my phone number out. You might catch where I live if you read my journal, at least the state. And you might even catch what I do for a living. Only a hand full of folks here even know my real life name. And that is the way I want it, adult enough to know not to share info I don't want used against me. There is no one on this site that I want anything to do with off it.
The few that I do *Morrigon, Imagesinwords, LadyC, RedQueen, FairyMoon, Birra, and a few more* I give that info to. But that is after years of learning about them, reading journals, seeing how they 'act' on the site and toward folks.
You let your private info out- you open yourself to being attacked later with it. Like that you are on meds, that you have kids, that you don't have a job, that you screw this or that person.
But I am sure it is not your fault at all that you are being 'bullied' off this site, when this site gives you every tool needed to block a person if you would only use them and stop egging shit on.
Yeap- sure it isn't your fault at all.

I feel bullied that you didn't mention me. I am so offend I am going to call the Feds and see what charges I can bring against you for it.
>:]
Well FINE! You do that! I will just share all those boob shots, the cams images of you sucking on a bottle. Think the "MAP" Mothers Against Porn will like to see those? Huh? Huh?
;)
That's why I'm sort of mysterious on here.
I slept till almost 2:00 pm. O.o
I came home last night, watched some old True Blood on the kindle, and went to sleep about midnight. Woke up around 3:00 am, as normal, to take a trip to the bathroom Then checked online, played a little on this site, and back to sleep.
Woke up at 10:30am, normal for me. But after another trip to the bathroom I climb back into bed. Covered up, closed my eyes, and just counted backward from 100. I think I got to about 80 before I went right back to sleep. Only thing that woke me up was my stomack wanting food.
:)
I usually don't sleep like this unless I am sick. :/
But I feel great, rested.
Think this means a lazy day for me, maybe a campfire later if the weather holds.
