tuesday-what's new?

Happy Tuesday Everyone.  It is going to get hot here today....in the mid 90's.  We haven't had very hot weather at all yet this summer so I'm sure we are all going to "croak" from the heat.
I plan on going to the Eye Clinic today to see what  is new in eye glass frames.  It's been almost 3 years since I bought new frames and I have an appt with my optometrist and opthomologist at the end of August to see if I need any correction in my vision and also to have a good eye physical by both Docs.  I really only need them for reading as my vision improved tremendously after cataract surgery when I was 60. Before that I had a very bad stigmatism and was near sighted.
Wonderful how a procedure like that can let you see again!!!
Hoping everyone has a wonderful day

Hi Margo and my OFF family:

Did ya miss me? Don't think so ... nobody noticed I wasn't on here yesterday. Well, my power has been out since Sunday night. It went out Sunday afternoon (clear skies, not a drop of rain or lightning in sight); power company came out, fixed it. Then it went out again Sunday at about 11 p.m., before the storm**** Really bad storms, too ... lots of trees down (but not around us); one guy got killed when a tree fell on his car ... his 2-year-old girl and his passenger were all right, though. But anyway, a lot of damage ... not around us, again, but no power since Sunday. So I have a lot of damage to the food in my refrigerator. Don't know if it's worth eating (actually, I'm going to call Stouffers, since a lot of it is Lean Cuisine and ask if it's still edible ... if not, it's in the trash on Thursday). Which means, I'm out a lot of money. Which I can't afford to lose, of course.

So my two days off have been spent in the dark eating **** ... well, that's how I spend my days at work ... ha ha. Yesterday, I went to the $3.99 theater (it went up in price) and saw Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian ... nothing else to do on my day off because no power ... plus NO COFFEE IN THE MORNING ... I stopped at a Starbucks on the way and went in and said: GIVE ME COFFEE! I told the barista there about the power outage and he said, "Do you need a shot of espresso in that?" I said, no, just regular coffee.

Anyway, it has not been a fun two days off. I do not feel rested and now I have to go back to work. I am extremely stressed and depressed, plus my knee hurts a lot because I haven't been able to get it elevated properly and iced enough. I've had to eat out too much ... well, I ate a lot of cheese cubes to keep them from spoiling, plus any other stuff that didn't need to be cooked.

Anyway, the power is back on now, ... thought it was going to be back on last night; they came to look at it briefly at 9 p.m. and then said, nope couldn't do it then, would have to wait til the morning. So I got out this morning to get some coffee and when I came back, they were out there working on it again.

So I'm going to grill the hamburger I have in the fridge that I was going to make Waikiki meatballs with this weekend ... hope it's still good. Can't think of anything else to do with it. So I might as well make burgers.

Have a good day. I'm going to have a good cry again.

i knew your power was out sunday during the day but didn't know about the nite too--bummer........

As long as you leave the refrig and freezer closed the food should be ok.

Nope, the frozen dinners were thawed already; some meat was still frozen and some chili and spaghetti sauce was frozen. Everything in the fridge was warm, so that goes out. I cooked the hamburger and hoped it doesn't make me sick. So far, so good ... had a burger for lunch.

Hi Everyone,
Tomorrow is my30th anniversary nd it sure deosnt feel like it. I dont even want to do anything special. I feel like I want a divorce!!!!! Just not liking him these days.'
I am getting ready to go to Denver on Saturday for 9 days. Maybe that is what I need is to get away from him for a few days.
I got some cool stuff on Ebay. A Tommy Bahama dress, A coach bag all leather, a Perlina bag, and a little photo printer to print pictures from my camera.
It will be like christmas around here this week.
Carla

Maybe we can get a 2 for 1 deal on the divorce....... UGH 
I'm actually going to suggest he go visit his friend in CA......I think we need a little break from being with each other 24 hrs a day.

This too shall pass.......

Enjoy your new toys.

I have a plaque on my fridge: The more I know about men, the more I love my cats.

I knew there was a reason I was single.

LOL!
Carrie Underwood just had a single out that said something like "the more men I meet the more I love my dog".

Good afternoon to you, Margo and my OFF siblings. I hope that today has been good for everyone. Mine has been a bit busy but not to bad...but I have a meeting this evening at the church.

I had a I.D. doctor visit this morning and it took forever. It was 15 minutes earlier and instead of the 45 minutes that it usually takes, it took me almost double that. Oh dear...I thought that I wasn't ever going to get out of there. She said that it is healing well and so we are going to continue doing what is being done. I thought that is a good thing. If it works why fix it, right?  So it is still being packed with the medicated rope packing and I go back in a week. She told me that she thinks the pain that I feel at times is the healing and it kind of makes sense to me on that. Sometimes it can be painful when boo boos are healing. Still no antibiotics and no sign of infection. Nothing on the packing when they bring it out either...unlike when it was being done here. So the infection must be gone. Especially after not being on the antibiotic for over a week.

I have a meeting at church tonight...I had forgotten all about it but then Jeri called me to remind me and I at first had thought that I wouldn't go but then I thought that I hadn't been to one for a few months so I better go. All I have to report is that we are having a PPR meeting on the 24th of this month. At least it gets me out for a bit.

The weather today is not as hot but the humidity is still high. I hate that darn old humidity so much. The sun is shinning and it is so pretty out. It was nice when I went to the doctor this morning. The breeze was nice and somewhat cool...nothing as nice as I would like for it to be but it was lots better than what they could have been. If you can't say something nice don't say anything at all I guess. I will take it for what it is...better than the weather from hell that we have been having. ha ha

I guess I should get going. I have to figure out what the heck I am doing for dinner. I haven't got the faintest idea...oh well..something will jump out at me I am sure. As long as it isn't hard...oh! I have a box dinner thing to make...that sounds like a winner. Bill will eat anything..he is like Mikey! ha ha

Have a good night (since the day is shot now!) and know that I am sending you all love and hugs along with prayers being said for everyone. Hopefully I will get on here earlier tomorrow...I should since there isn't anything for me to do tomorrow. Good...I can get back to going through stuff tomorrow...I didn't get a chance to do any of it today. Don't forget to scatter.......
