AMBER MAE

So I forgot to mention we got a beautiful little yellow kitten this past summer.  She was a precious little sweetface that has grown into a crazy, insane, nutcase who needs an exorcism, hahaha!  Of course we love her & she is funny a lot.  BUT she flys thru the air from one couch to the other, bites & scratches the shit out of me.  Damn.  I so wanted a little moushe that would just want to cuddle.  Well what I got is AMBER MAE, so I shall be happy with what I have!  Moral of this story... be careful what you ask for!

IT'S SEPT ALREADY??!! WTH???

Well it's only been 7 months.  Life has been Great, there is nothing better than retirement for sure!  But I do spend all my computer time on fb & I am grateful for those of you who are also on fb so I can still see you & get to know you even more!  

Summer was a bit of a bummer because we crashed the RV & so we didn't have one for the whole time.  I was SO happy to not be killed that I started going back to church again, heh heh!  Not EVERY Sunday mind you, but every other...  Doris was happy about that.  It wasn't terrible to be back.  I had enjoyed the day to myself for quite some time, tho'.  

To go to the shore, or the City or the flee market without a RV was so suckey.  I had gotten spoiled to have a bathroom everywhere.  Just wasn't the same without...
I spent the summer sleeping alot, trying to hide from people because I'm fat & there were a lot of rainey weekends.

And THEN I finally was able to get the new RV I wanted in Sept!!!!!  I have never been so estatic since the day I retired!!!!!  I AM THRILLED!!!  (Well winnning the Miss Richardson Pageant in 1965 was pretty damn thrilling, too.  But I digress.....)

Still going to all the movies on Fridays!  So fun.  

But driving in the new RV, (her name is Prisilla, she is pretty & prissy) brings the biggest smile to both of our faces!  It is such a beautiful van.  Every trip, even if it's just to drive around anywhere & nowhere is a great adventure now.  And how FABULOUS it is to have a bathroom on wheels again?!!!!

Rambling

Geese no blogging since Jan.
Crikey! Whatever.
I tell ya, I am much better at FB.
Blogging seems so yesteryear now.

So much has happened.

Doris was in the hospital for 5 days,
really sick with a bladder infection
that went into sepsis & ecoli.
It was bad.
Grateful she got well.
I got sick afterward,
just from the exhaustion.

I got a new iPhone!
It is the NEATEST thing ever!
Still don't know how to operate it totally,
probably never will.
But it is COOL.
I have to use a stylus
because of my damn nails.
It is just fine, tho'
I am good at it!
If you wanna text me,
I still have my old cell number.
It goes off with huge tower bells
Clanging & Clanging!
Cracks me up every time.

Got new glasses again.
$300.
At least, cheaper than the last pair.
Developing cataracts,
matter of time.
I was PISSED
When the eye Dr. told me.
Am I REALLY that old?
Shocking.

Got 2 new tires for my PT Cruiser.
$300 fucking dollars.
Now the cost of gas.
Life is expensive.

D gave me
a pretty gold bangle bracelet
for Valentines Day!
I gave her a gold heart bracelet.
Guess we appreciate
that she didn't stroke out
Or keel over & drop dead
when she was so ill.

I still want some cats or a dog, tho.
Just not happening.
I keep trying to be patient
& wait for the right fur baby
to come into my life.

I still love going to the movies
every friday
when the new ones come out.
Seriously,
I just get SO excited
Like a little kid!
My one day for Diet Coke!
And half of a small butter popcorn!
All alone in the dark
With my Babe, xxx!
Just got home from 2 good ones, in fact...
Wonderlust & Act Of Valor.
Then dinner at The Olive Garden!
Now I can hardly WAIT!
For next fri to come again!

I gotta clean up
my messes around this house.
It is such a old, rickety little house.
But I love it
And love living here with Doris.
I think we've had it for about 18 years now.
I am grateful.
But I am a damn slob.
And lazy.
A damn lazy slothful slob.

Well -
No one is perfect.

No New Years Resolutions

I ain't makin'
No damn New Years resolutions
For once.
To hell with it.
They're all the same each year , anyway.

I just don't give a shitsky -
I'm still fat &
My closet room is still a huge mess.
Whatever.

I'm tired of trying to stay positive
Every fucking day of my life.

Even tho' I do KNOW
I am one blessed woman.
I appreciate it,
but really -

I'm basically a nice person.
So why shouldn't
God Goddess Universe
give ME favor!?

I am tired.
I have bronchitus
And I think I am getting better.
Went to the walk-in & got med scripts.
Hope the insurance pays.

Doris has been very nice
& says she doesn't know
what she would have done
without me.

It feels good,
hearing her appreciation of me...
something kinda rare
since I don't do shit
around here.
Not really.

I am retired -
doesn't everybody know by now?
I ain't doing nothin'
If I don't feel like it.

I'll be glad
when summer comes back around-
These short, dark days
make me
Grouchy.
