TRICK OR TREAT FOR THE PRINCESS

TREATS FOR THE FROSTY MAN

THE TRICK IS TO KEEP HIM FROM MELTING

TODAY WAS A 1/2 DAY AT WORK. THANK GOODNESS IT WAS THE END OF THE WEEK FOR ME. CAME HOME AND HAD LUNCH WITH LON AT THE PANTHER INN. DIDN'T HAVE LITTLE MAN THIS AFTERNOON, SO I LAID DOWN AND TOOK A NAP. WHEN I GOT UP FROM MY NAP I PLAYED GAMES ON THE COMPUTER AND THEN DECORATED THE LITTLE PUMPKINS THAT GRANDPA GREAT GOT THE GREAT GRANDCHILDREN. EZEKIEL WILL JUST HAVE TO ENJOY A PICTURE OF HIS SINCE IT WON'T TRAVEL TOO WELL TO GEORGIA. WE HAVE THE SNOWMAN FOR DAWSON, THE WITCH PRINCESS FOR PORTIA AND THE PIRATE FOR EZEKIEL. IT WAS FUN DECORATING THEM. I COULD HAVE BEEN MORE ELABORATE BUT JUST WASN'T IN ME TONIGHT. THE PIRATES GOLD TEETH SHOWED UP WELL IN THE PICTURES.

SQUEAKY WHEEL GETS THE OIL

Life is full of squeaky wheels and each of us must make the oil to quiet them down. Me, I get obsessed with something and can't let it go. So I get out the almight pen and put in on paper in a letter, or use the email system of communication. Okay let's just say I can be obsessive compulsive about things that are on my mind. Example we got good service at Appleby's but on Lon's plate there were only 3 springs and mind you these were thin unattractive spears of asparagus. Lon sent a letter not to the Appleby's that we ate at but the main one. We got a gift card. Okay simple and taken care of. Me, most of my obsessions have to do with unjust to my kids. I get on this Mom bandwagon and off I go on some crusade to get justice for my girls. And if you think it just stops at you girls think again. Grandkids count in that equation. My obsession now is the stupid Student financial program for kids going to college. There are a lot of kids out there just like my girls who need help with college. Now if we were a minority we would have no problem or if they chose to have a baby there would be plenty of opportunities and funding for them. As they have been told by student financial aid officers at school. That is a whole carton of worms there. So I sat here at the computer and fired off a letter to the Federal Board of Educational Services. And low and behold one daughter gets a loan for need based. Hum, seems funny that all of a sudden they figure out that there is a NEED! Lon and I got married to give the girls a stable loving home and they get punished. Now where is the morals in that???????? Oh I could rant and rave more but I will save it for my crusade.
Congrats to Amy for her A on her speech and presentation board. Way to go. I knew you could do it. See Mom was right that you will do fine. Well my average for Mom advise is 50/50 but better than nothing. Sarah is getting big and soon we will have little Carson (or it may be big/little Peanut here). Sheree and Kasey have new Lasset (bassett and lab) puppies. There are 5 of them. Haven't seen them yet but you know me a puppies; I fall in love with them all.
Had a wonderful time with Meg when she came down and got her truck. Buffy told her she would love driving it. Buffy's truck is fixed and she is glad to have it back. Lon's silver streak and Gma's lincoln were transportation but her truck is her truck plain and simple. Gma has been to the urologist and neurologist. Think this is the last week for the speech therapy to come see her at home. She is maintaining. Gpa is working a lot since he got back from his trip out to the horse race tracks in West Virginia. Lon has been sick with this resp./ cough thing for almost 3 weeks. Hope he gets better soon. And me I have had this rash on my right side forehead for a week and a half and they finally diagnosed it with shingles. From stress they say, huh me have stress how could that be. I am throwing up as I say that. HA HA
So now time to get in the shower and go try and heal people. Really don't care. Need a vacation for let's say 15 years till Medicare kicks in. Winning lottery numbers would be appreciated.
I love my family and all the accomplishments that they have. Would love to kiss the boo boos and make them go away but sure not that simple anymore. Can't turn back the clock but by golly if it poses a problem I can sure write a letter. Who would that be forwarded to? Lets see father time and the address would be????????? Oh well you get my drift. Need to go out and take pictures this weekend since I have NO NEW ONES. Off to get the old body clean........
