N is for nerve (pinched) and neck (stiff) and neurosis


O is for osteo-for all the bones that crack

Give me another pill and I'll be good as new!

counting fears on how to pay my medical bills!

2. When you were a young child or teenager, did you have an idea of how many children you wanted and what their names would be? Did you follow through on your ideas? (Lindicious Life)
As a child and teenager I knew without a doubt I never wanted children as I spent many years babysitting and thought kids were great as long as they weren't mine. then about mid twenties that all changed but by then so had life.

3. What is the silliest thing you fight with someone about? Could be your spouse, sibling, parents, co-worker etc.(Jessica McCoy)
that would be an online friend that doesn't think she's beautiful and I think shre is the most beautiful person I know inside and out

4. What is your favorite scent that other's may not find very nice? ie: gasoline, sweat from your sweetie, etc. (Amy King)
the smell of wild onions growing in the field

5. Thoughts on Plastic Surgery? (had it? want it? regrets? not sure i would do it but you never know. as for othr people if they feel they need it and it makes them feel better about themself\ then a minor tweak here and there fine but this every week or change my whole look thing not sure i get it.

The Day After

It's just a little before 2AM and I'm still awake. Got the food put away what little there was left i didn't know Oilfield was a fan of BBQ.

Got all the empty drink glasses washed and put away even the one i took from Barb while she slept peacefully mumbling something about alien neighbors will have to watch her closer next time to many margaritas.

there wasn't any dessert left i gave the last to Joanne when she arrived fashionably late.

The fireworks were beautiful especially being able to share them with David who enjoyed them as much as little man did.

Oh and i finally got Adam and Nick out of the pool i mean seriously boys just because i live in the woods doesn't mean you get to skinny dip all night.

all in all it was a great party with wonderful friends but now the day is catching up with me so i think i will quietly slip off to bed and dream of everything wonderful. Hugs my friends till we meet again.

Happy Fourth of July

Happy Fourth of July everyone you're all invited over to celebrate at my house. First we will have some lunch.

then maybe some drinks by the pool.

Then we must have dessert.

Of course no fourth would be complete without watching fireworks.

All in all i think it will be a great day. So grab your swimsuit, your towel and head on over for some fun in the sun...hugs I'll be waiting.

Here Kitty Kitty

it would appear that kittens have taken up residence under our house. We did not invite them nor do they pay rent but they are there none the less. Not sure where they came from if someone dropped them off or if they escape from the mother ship but whatever the case they are not leaving and i can't let animals starve so we now have a family of kittens living with us.

This little guy came out first and seems to be the one most playful. He was followed by his sibling soon after.

we have learned there are four kittens and a mama under the house we hope to have them all out soon so we can find homes for them but for now they insist on hiding.hope everyone has a lovely Sunday and hugs to all.

It Finally Happen

It finally happen we weren't sure it ever would but it has. After many years of wishing and praying my Younger brother Josh has finally found his true love. Now don't judge i know she ain't your typical girl next door and she definitely has issue about being a fish out of water but you just can't stop true love.

Isn't she beautiful

What a cute couple

OK so maybe that wasn't very nice of me but it was funny i torture him for at least an hour with this. I got lots of laughs from it and well because i can i decided to add insult to injury and make this post. Aren't i such a nice older sister makes you want to be related doesn't it. Anyways truth be told this is the fish he caught yesterday along with these other beauties.

have to admit with his love of fishing I'm thinking his love life will go something like this.

Here's hoping everyone has a wonderful Saturday..Hugs
