  • Someone has given me a gift of Premium. I don't know who to thank. I don't know how long this will last either. It has been so long since I did this I don't know if I remember how. As we bid May goodbye I hope my ki…
  • Well thanks Sasha for the explanation on images. Since I already have them somewhere on a floppy or zip disk I guess I don't need to go download them from xanga's lost files. I sure do have some neat net friends. There…

  • Do squirrels ever have twins? Two of them were into mischief in my front yard this morning! One insisted on throwing dirt out of my planter with the bachelor buttons. I actually walked outside and chastised the bugger.…
  • It is so nice out that my air conditioner is off until probably this afternoon. The cool front didn't bring rain but at least it did cool us from the summer temps. I am now in the process of working my brain to death. I…
  • A friend sent this poem by Russ Butcher, permission granted. Now to see if xanga allows proper paragraphs. Our Rights and FreedomsEach right and each freedom with which we are blessedcame not by mere chance, but by ardu…
  • It appears that at least 4 readers of the big old journal of mine, popped in here and caught my whimper. I got through all the fotolog notifies, seems some people can't figure out how to do that when they put up more t…
  • I ordered Bongo Joe's cassette. Have yet to tell hub as I am supposed to be taking it easy on the plastic. We pay the ISP by the year and that is coming up June 1st. I have not journaled the last couple days over at the…
  • http://www.arhoolie.com/titles/1040.shtml This is a link where I can order a cd or cassette from one of my favorite street entertainers. OK he was the only one I ever met. In the 80's I took a tape recorder with me as…
  • Yesterday we hit a record high for May-- 97 degrees F. Today must be running a second as it is 94 at 7 p.m.! Much of my day was spent watching the drag race trial in San Diego. Speed killed more kids when I was going to…
  • I thought my day was bad. How about this poor guy. This little guy is sitting at the bar just staring at his drink. He's been sitting there for half an hour when this big trouble-making truck driver steps next to him, g…
  • Hub delivered meals alone today. I had asked 2 staff if either was able if they would help. Hadn't occurred to them to walk down to the meals room at the correct time, so he did it himself. Later said he preferred doing …
  • Sorry I goofed, the link would be http://chattering.journalives.com/may12.htm And why didn't I just edit the entry? sigh, told ja I was tired.
  • I am really tired this evening. Church service yesterday wasn't the 'mother is great sermon' that I feared. That'll teach me to ass ume... Arriving at pool this morning all the flipping big door/windows were open with …
  • Well tomorrow is the big day. I will go listen to a sermon about fine mother's, pastor just lost his and he was close to her. In the past I would skip this day but I have missed the last couple Sunday's and I feel the n…

  • Today we hit a high of 91 degrees F. It is hazy and muggy as the fires in Mexico always come our way. Doesn't help our ozone and we are in trouble with that again this year. Some how it doesn't seem fair to get dunned fo…
  • This is soooo weird! How did anyone find eprops to give? Seriously my monitor shows absolutely none to check! That's really OK because I had just settled with the idea of who really needs them? I don't want to try and …
