Not me Juju...I'm ticked off at hubby right now seeking the wild wonders of the hiking trail....he just took off to go with the scouts, even though my grandson is not probably with him, I'm thinking of seeing if my sister would like to go with me and we stay somewhere overnight and enjoy ourselves...we get stuck at home and with responisibilites all the time...there's times we'd enjoy going places.. I think he's being cruel-hearted to me this time around....it will take me some time to "simmer down" me thinks. It's suppose to be raining by tonight. He didn't have to go. This time around an bad choice he made in my estimation. I go for now....there's still plenty needing done around here also.

Well, I'm back....and it's raining. I opted not to stay anywhere tonight..instead did some more shopping, bought an car coat for $15,an blouse for $4.99 and saved myself about $105.....bread for $7.75..four loaves and one package of sandwhich bread for free, put $30 gas in the car...which has an problem in over heating for some reason...or an leak maybe...as old as this car is, it has lights galore if there's anything out of whack..I simply stopped at an gas station and got an older fella...that knew about cars. He filled it up with water again and said he thought I could make it home, but to keep an eye on the gauges. I have been from here to kokmo today and back again. I picked up my sister and left her with enough food for the next couple of week's if needed. Not fancy eats, but she'll survive I think. We did not find her an coat though for this year...I bought her last couple of ones after Christmas when they were 1/2 price...one an dress coat...and the other one an ski parka. . But there's still time to look for one I suppose. Just need to be patient an bit to find the right one. So...that all taken care of..time for an soda or bubbly bath and relaxing...maybe an good movie. My son said he'd be over tomarrow to check out the car for me.... and see what's the problem with it.In the meantime...it "rains"...I'm glad to be here at the moment.

I'm lurking of course James.

Just back from a local trip but noticed the temperature reading (outside temperature) was reading 33c. It dropped to 29c whilst driving so I reckon we might have had 30c here today! Phew!!

Hey Ron, you ever hear much from Diana these days,  I heard that 3,000 people were protesting against Bank of American yesterday in Boston with about an dozen arrested...and the Longshoreman's union in Longview, Washington have filed an peittion to get the sheriff removed, citing he's breaking the law and not allowing constitutional rights for the citzens. He is apparently arresting them if they try to protest for higher wages and benefits and they are " fed up" with the bloke. He naturally egoitstically said...he's just doing his job and plans on to keep right at it. I see an all and all out right fight going on there...it's an toughie as whose doing what incorrectly now.

It's still raining here...my kitty whose was first introuduced to the outside this summer...bounced right out the door and got her paws wet.... and was looking at me like "what' s this stuff?"  Anyway I picked her up and put her back in the house. She's no longer an purple cat either...her light grey left the orange skin tone and she's now more grey and white. I wanted an "companion" for my other cat, is she ever...she thinks nothing of pouncing on him without him noticing she's there...and there's this little tussel before he can break away and he looks at me like...What did I do?"...I was just walking across the floor..... Good thing he's slightly bigger and can hold his own. Yet he goes over to her at  times and licks her ears sweetly for an little while also...wihtout bothering her in an tussel there afterwards. Lazy monring for me so far.

 I like the nuts and bolts avatar up above...like of says what life is all about most the time these days.
