Tuesday already!!! WHAT'S NEW WITH YOU????

"Thinking" I think the problem was you weren't really "thinking!" It was that head doing it's thing again when it's on the old auto pilot! I've been having real head hunger issues again. I don't dump on sugar either. Tho, sometimes I don't feel so hot after I give in to it. Wi**** made me feel worse than it does. I empathize, I sure do.

You know, I do alright if I keep my "treat" to the Creamy bites.  If I can stay away from the fresh strawberry cake sitting on the table behind me at work, why do I think I can't stay away from chocolate? Also, I find that it's waaaaaaaay too easy to snack on pretzels and other things hanging around the salon. Maybe if I didn't buy them to begin with DUH!!!!

Hi Everyone. It's been awhile since I've been on here. I'm having to catch up on everyone.
   I had my doctor's appointment with the orthopedic surgeon. He said, that I have a bone spur on my hip. That eventually I will have to
have a hip replacement. Durn arthritis. That I'm too young now. I thought I would never hear those word again. Too Young. I have to go Thursday to get a shot in my hip. They have to do that under xray to get it in the right spot. Let's hope it helps.
   I hope everyone has a great day.

George - it is nice to wake up and see the thread started. Thank you. You must still be on cloud 9 after the phone conversation.

Each year I make an attempt to help Tom with the yard. Gardening is just NOT my thing but I make a valiant attempt - honest. Yesterday he did a ton of trimming and I thought it would be nice to do some hand weeding around the big cast iron frogs. So ... I bent over to grab a weed and about jumped out of my shoes. There was a SNAKE!!!!! That's it for the rest of the year. The weeds can grow 10 feet tall and I won't venture off the deck.

I went to a training with my client at her apartment complex. Most of the residents are retired people and they all know me. One lady pulled me aside and asked "are you one of those anorexic people?"

Annie was almost ousted from the house last night. Tom was laying in bed giving Jimmy love, I was sitting at the computer. Suddenly Tom began to yell and swear. Annie peed on his head, the jealous little brat. Ohhh, he was livid. She had better show better manners today or he will ... I'm not really sure what he will do to her. Tevia may get a bride in the mail.

Kisses

Oh, Annette, I do so hate snakes too!  I've never seen one in my yard, but I have a feeling there are some around.

Bad Annie -- what a nasty thing to do!  Fluffy has never done anything like that, but she does bite and that's a problem sometimes.

Off today to have lunch with my bff -- we are finally going to celebrate our birthdays -- better late than never.

Also hope to get to the store for some tomato cages, mulch, etc.

Sun is shining here and already 50 degrees......hurrah!

Pat, Misty use to bite too. Well, I was the only person she ever did that with and most of the time it was just enough to let me know that she wasn't getting enough attention....heck, with her there would never be enough of that...and then she would nip me. I got a spray bottle and filled it with water. When she did that I would spray her and I sprayed her more than one spray too and she finally stopped. Misty can be a little brat most of the time! But like my Mom said about one of the puppies we had.....she may be a little devil but we sure do love her.

OH...MY...GOSH.... I am sneaking in here at work and tears welling up in my eyes, trying to contain the laughter. Iam so sorry, Tom.. But I can't help it, Yes I would say she made her displeasure known in a big way !!! I used to have a room mate who had a Siamese cat. I HATED that cat, and she hated me..Sneeky little bugger. When I went to work the cat would come in and throw-up on my bed. I finally got so mad I left the house and told my room mate I would not come bac****il SHE cleaned up my bed. I still just shutter around a siamese cat.
  You know I am never happier  than I am in my yard, I actually like the snakes..But.. ours are all harmless. I used to troop around in the bush is Florida exploring untill I went to the local zoo and in the snake house they noted which ones were local snakes and the tags were.. poisionous, poisionous. I about faited at how many differant ones there were, that ended my exploring. FAST

Jean,
You were very lucky with your snake explorations. Shudder at the thought.

I almost laughed at Tom. As he swore and showered, I was left to change all the bedding. He could be heard bellowing " that GD cat. I've never been pi$$ed on in my life!!!" One chuckle would have made me an outside wife for the night.

Oh yuck, snakes! I'm with you (and Indiana Jones) I hate snakes (and bats ... I'll never forget the bat episode in my condo!).

And oh my, Annie is in the proverbial doghouse for that incident. I have never had that happen, although Scooter is very territorial about snuggling on right side of my body at night, and if Nettie (and before that, Diva) tried to get over there, he'd hiss at the other cat and whack 'em in the nose. That used to be Cinnamon's spot, and Scooter bided his time until Cinnamon died, then took his place. Now no one else gets that spot.

 As I recall, your cats didn't help capture the bat at all?

They sure have their designated snuggle positions in our lives.
