~ Something to Crow About & Tag Offer ~

Mornin!  Ok, so now it's afternoon.  The days are just getting away from me.  I start with good intentions, but then one thing leads to another, then another, and before I know it I'm staring at the clock saying, 'what the hell??!'  I use to be so good at multi-tasking, but now I get lost and easily distracted.  Suppose it's old age? 

 

So what do I have to 'crow about'?  LOL nothing really.  I just feel like all my entries have been offers lately, and I've written very little.  Yeah, yeah, I know some of you might like it better that way.  Not that I have much to say these days, work is work, and life is life.  I've been doing good, but my time lately seems to be so limited.  So what have I been doing?  Nothing, not a damn thing!  So where is the time going?   Some one please tell me!?!

 

A few updates...............   My brother is doing good.  He's still being treated for an infection in his foot, but he is walking and not in as much pain.  He has said he's always been in pain, so this is nothing.  He will need to see a specialist to have some work done, but knowing him he will put it off.  Random jobs and no health insurance does that.  It's a shame really, but he knows who to point at. 

 

My sister is holding her own.  A prayer and/or candle never hurts, and I so appreciate it all.  I'd be lying if I said chemo is not taking a toll, but she is fighting this with all she has.  She takes full advantage of her feel good days, and we are doing what we can to have her be comfy and happy.  It's never enough though.  A magic wand would be the perfect solution, but alas not possible. 

 

My Dad has had both eyes done now, and he is back to feeling like he's invincible..... if only!  Well, that is somewhat a lie.  He is better at admitting his limitations and taking advantage of us when he thinks he needs it.  Do we agree?  Hell no, we wish he'd do it more often.  :::sigh:::  Stubborn men!!!

 

My Mom?  Well she is a saint.  She holds it together like no other.  I guess she gets her strength from having 7 kids.  LOL  I know it takes a toll on her, but she never complains.  Or hardly......  she laughs a bit but I often wonder if that is what keeps her from crying. 

 

I don't see my son as often as I'd like.  He spread those wings awhile ago and is soaring.  I am proud of him, but I miss him.  We talk on the phone but our schedules are out of synch so visits are few and far between.  He has laundry facilities at the apartment so those days are gone.  Hmmm...maybe that's a good thing?  LOL  Seeing how he would threw his stuff in the washer, talk for a bit, then leave to have me finish up...........  naah I miss him.. at least I got a few minutes a couple times a week then. 

 

Thanks for all the nice comments and emails about my new sidebar.  I decided this morning I would do a little expansion on it and offer it up.  Just being silly.  If you'd like your name on it leave a comment.  Limit on this is back to 2.  It will expire on 9/24.  Please pay attention to the expiration dates.  Though you may think 'what's one day?', I take the graphics off my computer as soon as they expire.  With the number of graphics I have, if I left them I'd surely crash.  I hate saying no, but I can't keep making exceptions, surely you can understand.  And no, this is not directed at anyone........ don't think that.  It's a general statement regarding what has been happening.  Private emails begging only make me feel worse.  I'm sorry if you miss something, and I'm not trying to be mean......... honest.

 

Ok, off to change loads and figure out what else can distract me today.  LMAO  Enjoy your Saturday... but you know I'll be back with something else...  I can't stop! 

 

Hugs
