I am sick now.

2012-01-29T21:54:00.002-05:00

Hey Y'all,
C is getting over her cold and I think I have caught it. I have been miserable.

We had company over from South Carolina. I spent most of the day asleep. It was good to see her. C and her are best buds. She is one of the people we miss most from down there.

Well I am going to make this a short one.
Y'all be safe!

C is one sick puppy

2012-01-21T01:40:00.002-05:00

Hey Y'all,
Cis laid up with the worst cold I have ever seen her have. The stuff she is coughing up has a red tinge to it. Hopefully she will start feeling better soon. It may take a trip to the doctor, We'll have to see. Pray she will get better soon.

Picking up where I left off again

2012-01-18T20:19:00.003-05:00

Hey Y'all,
I am picking up my old habits again. I started smoking again. Every body needs some kind of vice, Right? My wife isn't too happy about it. She picked up the habit again recently. It made her feel really bad when I started again. It's not her fault, it's something I enjoy.

C and P and I are doing well. P is going to day care school. He is doing really well. C and I are just living out our retirement gracefully as we can. Lord knows we need grace.

Take Care,

Thursday

2012-01-13T00:40:00.002-05:00

Hey Y'all,
C and I are up and watching TV. Tomorrow I get up early in the morning to take P the grand to day care school. In the morning being Friday. I took him to school this past morning and all this week.

I still have a little sinus infection left. I have started to poop again. I was really worrying about that. I will be glad when I get all straitened out. Maybe taking comunion the other day helped me out.

Well I don't know of too much. Y'all take it easy!

Hey Y'all,
I am still sick a little. I haven't pooped any more. and I have a sore throat. I am feeling a little better. which is a good thing.

The preacher from the church we go to is coming by the house tomorrow to visit us. We are really looking forward to it. I haven't been to church in awhile and I need Communion. C has been more than I have.

2012-01-05T22:34:00.002-05:00

Hey Y'all,
I've been sick since before new years. I've had the trots and then I was stopped up like a fat man eating cheese. I hadn't took a crap till yesterday. That was like a week without taking a poop. I have had a cold from hell, Sinus infection. I'm still sick with that.

I hate writing that I am sick all the time. I wish I had something better than life is rough. For now thats all I can do.

Take Care!

To God be the Glory!

2011-12-23T00:56:00.002-05:00

Today my soul is speared with darkness and light. Some times the demons win, other times I somehow get a glimpse of redemption. When the darkeness floods in, it blocks all the light and the demons have their fun. Somehow I am hanging on. Confusion and depression being my closest friend. I understand what it is like to be lonley and yet to be not all alone. I wish someone would take the helm to my ship, because I am to weak to do so. I apoligize for getting weird on ya. I just need to vent.

Been Sick

2011-12-16T00:01:00.002-05:00

Been a lot going on. A lot I don't want to talk about. I have been going to the VA a lot. I have been getting sick a lot. Physically and mentally. I have a special meeting with the therapist this Friday.

The baby's mommy, J blew the engine up in her car by not keeping oil in it. Now she is treating her mother like shit because she won't co-sign a loan for her to get her car fixed or a new car. She cusses her mom for all she is worth while C is taking her to work and doing her a favor getting her there.

MY NERVES ARE SHOT!!!! Something is going to have to happen soon. I can't take much more.

Long Time

2011-12-05T00:35:00.003-05:00

Hey Y'all,
A few things have happened since I posted last. I have been in the hospital for a couple of days with a flair up of colitis. My bowels still ain't right, but they are getting there. I hope to be 100% within the next few weeks.

C and I have been Christmas shopping. I already know what one of my presents are. I can't tell you what it is, and I can't get my grubby little hands on it till the 25th. Waiting on the 25th is like waiting on Christmas. Lol

Day after

2011-11-25T17:34:00.002-05:00

Hey Y'all,
I had a good thanksgiving. My oldest brother from South Carolina came up and spent the day with us, spent the night and went home. It was good to see him. We had the imediate family over and J's friends over. We have a lot of left overs. I had a turkey sammich for supper.

Sore tounge

2011-11-21T01:18:00.002-05:00

Hey Y'all!
After my dental work, I got a canker sore on my tongue. It really hurts bad. C got me some canker sore medicine. It works really good , but it stings when it first goes on.

C and I did some Christmas shopping tonight after supper. We got just what we wanted for one of our daughters. We still have a lot of shopping to do. I have yet to get something for C even.

Take it easy!

Got some dental work

2011-11-19T02:11:00.002-05:00

Hey Y'all,
I got 8 cavities filled and a temporary bridge where my missing front teeth were. I got to wait 2 weeks while the lab makes my permanent teeth.

It feels weird to have something up there in the front of my mouth. Also at the time of me writing this my mouth is very sore. Hopefully in the next day or two my mouth will stop hurting.

Well Take Care,

C was sick a couple of nights ago

2011-11-15T03:15:00.003-05:00

Hey Y'all,

C had a trip to the emergency room. She had blood in her diarrhea. They still ain't sure what she has. We are feeling better and getting better as each day goes by. We are not 100% yet but we are progressing.

I haven't posted because I have been feeling weak and sick. Thank all Y'all for your concern and wishes for us to get better.

Take Care!

Been Sick.

2011-11-12T00:33:00.002-05:00

Hey Y'all,
I had to go to the VA emergency room last night. I was in so much pain yesterday I had to call 911 and have a ambulance come out. They thought I had the flu. I decided I didn't need to get a ride from them if I only had the flu. We went to the VA in Atlanta and I had a lot more than just the flu. After bloodwork and a CT scan, It was determined I had Coilitus. It's a infection of the colon. I have been very sick. I am home now Of course and feel a lot better. They have me on antibiotics and I am not over my problems but at least I feel I am getting better.

Well today was veterans day. I called all my brothers and talked to all of them except one who was working.

Take care Y'all,

Today Nov. 9 was P the Grands Birthday!

2011-11-10T00:54:00.002-05:00

Hey Y'all,
Even though we celebrated P the Grands birthday on Saturday, Today was his actual birthday. He spent it with his mom all day. I spent it sitting in a dentist chair.

I had a very painful deep cleaning all the way under the gums down to the roots. I got a lot of shots of anesthesia. Them things HURT!!!. The girl cleaning my teeth had to stop and I had to get more anesthesia about half way thru.

If the VA approves it and I expect them to, I will get a bridge where my missing teeth are. I also have to have some periodontal work done, gum grafts etc. I have gingivitis. I haven't took very good care of my mouth. I have handled all kinds of people in my life. I must say, going to the Dentist scares the crap out of me!

Well Take it easy!

Hey Y'all,

It's beautiful fall weather

2011-10-30T01:14:00.002-04:00

We took a ride over the mountain to look at the colors of the trees. It was cold. The trees had lost a lot of their leaves up towards the top of the mountain. We got to see a lot of pretty colors.

When we got over the mountain we stopped at a restaurant and had supper. I had a giant piece of fried flounder. It was good. C had chicken fettuccine Alfredo. and C's mom had a Stromboli that was big as my lower arm and hand. She could only eat about half of it.

C and I came home and started working on changing her room around. It is starting to look nice. The way she has it arranged now, their is more room.

Well Take It Easy!

Hey Y'all,
Today we slept late, Even Parker the grand. Tomorrow we will go to church In the morning.

Another quiet day

2011-10-12T01:36:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
Today (yesterday now) was a pretty relaxing day. The dogs made a mess with the toilet paper all over the house. We cleaned up what we could.

This evening C's parents came over for supper. We had BLT'S. They were really good. When they were leaving C's niece fell down the stairs. She didn't get hurt. Mostly shook up and her pride hurt a little.

C went to the auction and didn't bring back that much. She had a good time.

Y'all take care!

Sadie

2011-10-11T01:17:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
We slept late today after J took P the grand to spend the day with her. Once when I woke up to go to the bathroom I caught Sadie chewing on one of my insulin needles. The metal needle part was missing. I called the vet and they have me watching her. She seems to be acting normal. They told me what to look for, but I haven't seen anything unusual. I hope she will be alright.

We had Chinese food for super tonight. C had Garlic Chicken and I had Mongolian Beef. It was really good.

We are now relaxing and watching TV while C works on her needle point and I play on the computer.

Take Care!

Watching the Fall colors as they change

2011-10-09T01:36:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
We took a ride over the mountain today to look at the colors. It is just beginning to change. In about a week to a week and a half, the colors will be in full swing.

On the way back we stopped at the Huddle House and had breakfast in the afternoon. C's niece was baby sitting P the grand and doing some clean up around the house we paid her to do.

Bad day- sorta

2011-10-07T01:24:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
The baby's daddy took him this afternoon. He did not want to leave me when it got time to go. We met at wall mart. I came home and laid down after C and I had lunch. C went out on her job she has part time. It was just the dogs, cat and me at home. She came home and then went to the auction.

By the time she got home I am feeling horrible. I forgot to take my medication all day. Even my toe nails hurt. my psych meds I could tell I had been without. I was going thru the withdrawals from some of my meds. I took what I needed to and it gave my body a shock. I got the shakes and my breathing got heavy. C wanted to know if we needed to go to the hospital. I said no I have been thru this before. I settled down about 30 minutes later, when the meds got into my system after being without for over 24 hours.

I am feeling better but still rough.

Fun Day

2011-10-06T00:01:00.003-04:00

Hey Y'all,
We picked up J the baby's momma from work this afternoon. She is buying a new used car. She got a 05 Kia Optima. We took her to the car dealership. Afterwards we went out and had Mexican for supper to celebrate.

2011-09-26T00:52:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
Today we went to church. While we were there we noticed that P the grand had mysterious bumps on his back and neck. We took him to the hospital emergency room. They say it is something viral. Most likely Chicken pox.

I haven't been able to eat until later on tonight. I passed on a steak cooked on the grill because it wasn't appealing to me. I ate a bowl of cereal later on tonight.

We are up watching TV right now.

Hey Y'all,
Today C was a bitch to me because I slept in and didn't make it to a parade we were thinking about going to. We fussed and fought this afternoon. After she calmed down a bit and quit treating me like shit we started to get along.

Her parents came over and we had a pretty good meal. Her mother had her usual smart ass comments. I can't stand that bitch. I tolerate her because she is C's mom and that's about it. GRRRR.

Well we are watching TV now and it's late.

Brought New pup home today

2011-09-17T00:45:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
We brought home our new yorkie pup today from the breeder. He is a tiny little thing that doesn't know he is tiny. His name is Rowdy and he lives up to his name. Our other yorkie, Sadie and him play rough. Sadie is a lot bigger than Rowdy, But rowdy will bark his mighty and little puppy bark and run after Sadie and nip at her. It will be fun to see him grow and change color and his hair get longer.

I gave Sadie a bath tonight. C dried her and combed her hair. Yorkie's unlike other dogs have actual hair instead of fur like most other dogs. (if that makes sense)

Tomorrow morning we take Rowdy to the vet for his first visit. He is up to date on his shots. It is just required to make sure the pup is healthy.

Well Take Care!

They stayed for supper. C's parents came over. C fixed us french toast, scrambled eggs,bacon and sausage.

Everybody's gone home. I have had my shower and P has had his bath as well as Nana C. P went to bed around 8 or so. Now C and I are up and watching TV. There is some strange convoluted movie about the Bermuda triangle. I don't like it.

A Good Sunday

Hey Y'all,
This morning I took P the Grand over to his Da-Da's house. He kept P all day. C and I went to church in the afternoon for a installation of the new pastor. C baked Banana nut bread and brought it to church. There was refreshments after the service. the ladies brought a lot of good stuff.

After Church C and I went to Wal mart. Afterwards we went to where P was at, His Da Da's house. We cooked out and had hamburgers cooked on the grill. They were good.

We came home and put P the Grand to bed. He was tuckered out. It was no problem getting him to sleep.

Sadie Went To The Groomers Today!

2011-09-03T18:57:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
We took Sadie our Yorkie to a different groomer today. Not only was she cheaper, She did a better job! Sadie now smells good and has no tangles. We put her on Comortis. It was worth the money. There are no fleas on her at all. The Comfotis Lasts for a whole month and it can only be got with a prescription. It's cheaper online, but the vet sells it too.

We took Sadie to the vets yesterday. she is 6.4 pounds and growing. We don't trust the lady we got her from. We found out a lot of bad things about her. Her name is on the Internet from several sources as a bad breeder. We are just praying that Sadie will continue to be a healthy puppy with our TLC.
She sleeps with me at night.

We have another puppy coming that is still very young. We have to wait for him to be weened from his mom.

Well Y'all take it easy!

Busy day

2011-09-02T22:22:00.003-04:00

Hey Y'all,

I awoke this morning to a severe pain in my left calf. I was having a Charlie Horse! I got up soon after that and went out and paid bills. I got back to the house and we took Sadie our Yorkie to the vets to get some shots and other tests. She seems to be doing fine. We got a scare from looking up the breeder we got her from. There is a lot of negative stuff on the Internet about the breeder.

We are getting a second puppy from a different breeder that are friends of ours. We have to wait till we can pick him up. He has to be a certain age before he can be weened from his Momma. He is just a little bitty thing.

Well, Take it easy!

Say What!!

2011-08-30T00:43:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
I spent a lot of today sleeping. I was not feeling good earlier. Now I am Ok. We had fried chicken from Wall Mart for supper tonite. After supper C and her dad went to the auction. C came back with some more neat stuff that we don't need, but she got a great deal on some stuff for the ladies at church and the craft ministry.

I am so ready for the first of the month to get here. I need money to pay off bills and want to quit living off my credit card. I am thankful I have them don't get me wrong, but I am happier when they have a zero balance. That will be a long time coming, I have the feeling.

Not so good news today

2011-08-26T23:01:00.003-04:00

Hey Y'all,

C went and got her heart checked today. She had been wearing a monitor for 24 hours. The doctors looked at it and her heart is still racing at about 180 beats per minute. They are going to go back in and do the burning parts of her heart with electrodes again. Keep her in your prayers. The doctors want to do the operation within the next 2 weeks. Pray for her nerves and that this time the procedure will be successful.

Well Take Care!

Stayed home today

2011-08-24T23:40:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
C and I stayed home all day today. There was no reason to go out. We had all we needed to fix supper with. C's parents came over and we had spaghetti and garlic bread. P the Grand is going thru a growth spurt or something. He all of a sudden has a very aggressive appetite.

Our friend brought us over more brown eggs. Two flats of big double yolkers and about eight flats of regular eggs. Farm fresh, Brown eggs. Yum. We will be keeping the neighbors happy and anybody else who wants some.

Tomorrow we go to the VA in Atlanta so C can get her heart checked out. It is doing some strange things and fluttering so they want to see her after her operation. Keep her in your prayers.

Take Care!

Another good day

2011-08-21T22:37:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
We made it to church today. I slept thru a lot of it. The main reason I went is because C wanted to go and I knew if I said I didn't want to go then she wouldn't go.

We went to one of the next towns over. C picked up some stuff for doing cross stitch. We picked up some Popeye's fried chicken and brought it back for supper. We had C's parents over for supper like always. Now C and I are relaxing. We watched a movie earlier.

Hope all is well with all Y'all,

2011-08-14T23:42:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
We got a new addition to the family! A 18 month old Yorkie! She is just as sweet as can be!! We don't have papers on her or anything. We got her as a pet. We got her from a friend of ours who breeds them for a living.

We got rid of the dachshund we had. We could only keep him outside and when he got around P the grand he would jump up on him with sharp nails. The Yorkie is much more docile. She is just a real sweetheart.

We still have the cat. her and the Yorkie are still figuring out their relationship with each other. Lol.

Take Care!!!

Went out last night

2011-08-08T09:57:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
Me and C and C's parents went out and met a friend of ours at a bar in Helen Ga. for her birthday. C's mom was the designated driver for her parents. I was the designated driver for us. Our friends boyfriend is blind from diabetes and can't drive. It didn't stop our friend from having a good time on her birthday! We had a babysitter for P the grand. A free one, the best kind!

Well take care!

Quiet day

2011-08-07T01:22:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
Today was a quiet day. We attended a memorial service for one of our friends who's husband died about a year ago. It was really nice. We were on the way home and had a problem with the kid at burger king. I told him I was gonna kick his ass. C asked for the manager and told him off. We came home and I ate my burger.

C's parents came over for supper. We had chicken and dumpling soup. It was really good.

After supper C and her dad went to the auction. She bought some nice things on the cheap. Now we are sitting up watching TV. Soon we will be going to bed.

Take Care!

I think everything is gonna be alright

2011-08-03T00:30:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
Today was ok, but a long day. We got up this morning with P the grand. His Mom came and picked him up for a few hours. C and I went and got pedicures. I was desperately in need of one. I am diabetic and it is good for me to get pedicures. I haven't got one in over a year. It was past due.

I came home and relieved J, P the grands mom. He was asleep so I laid down and took a nap. C was away doing some things for the ministry she works for. P woke up about 2:30 pm or so. We stayed up till C got home. Then we went with friends to a Mexican restaurant.

So today was a long day. But a good day. It's always a good day when I get to spend time with C.

Y'all Take Care!

The Government is frustrating.

2011-08-02T02:09:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
My check showed up with out the extra benefit on it. Also the VA has a proposal that I am not competent to handle my finances. We are trying to prove that I am competent to handle my finances. If not I will be assigned a fiduciary to oversee my finances. usually a banker or a lawyer. They won't let C be my fiduciary because of some personal reasons on C's part.

We are working on it and have been meeting with the VA representative to try and get this straightened out. Keep us in your prayers.

I have problems that I deal with by going to the doctors at the VA, And taking the medication they prescribe. I have already been to jail because of my disease or problems. There are many things that go thru my head even with the medicine. I don't drink. I am trying to do things right. Well not to defend myself, but kinda explain things. I don't usually talk about it. It can be unpleasant to talk about. Thank God That I have C to help me. She is my help mate. I don't know what I would do without her.

Well Take Care,

The boogy man is out there!!!

2011-07-31T23:13:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
Well it looks like congress has reached a solution on America's debt. Praise the lord, because if I don't get a check the bills don't get paid and I don't eat. Nobody does including C, P the grand, C's parents and niece.

We have C's parents over every night to have supper. They are in worse shape than we are right now. There is many times that if they don't come over here to eat, they go a whole day without eating. At least this way we know they are getting one good meal a day. Sometimes they pay us back by taking us out to eat at the first of the month when they get paid.

Well Take Care!

Hey You!!!

2011-07-28T00:28:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
I ain't got a lot to report tonight. As long as Obama doesn't take away my check this coming month, I think we'll be OK. I am looking forward to paying a few bills. It always makes me feel good to know I am taking care of my responsibilities. Thank God I have C to help me get things organized to pay everything.

Well Take Care!

Sleepy , Lazy Day

2011-07-25T22:31:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
I slept most of the day. P the grand woke us up about 0700. C let me go back to sleep and she watched P. I slept till 3 o'clock or so. I have been so sleepy today.

My oldest step daughter is giving us fits because she is getting kicked out of her place and we told her she can't move here. She is going to have to figure it out. She has burned her bridge with us. She has burned her bridges with a lot of people. Were not shure what she is going to do. I don't think she knows either.

Went to the farmers market today

2011-07-24T00:14:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
We went to the farmers market this morning. It was sparse by the time we got there. We bought some local grown corn.

Tomorrow or today as it past midnight, Is C's birthday. I gave her a nightgown tonight at midnight for her birthday. She really likes it. I am going to surprise her again, Ha Ha. I Love her so much!

Well Have a good one!

It's hot in the foothills

2011-07-22T22:22:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
just sitting up watching some TV with C. Last week I slipped and fell down the steps on my back. It is slowly getting better.

We have got some rain off and on. But it has mostly been hot. My tomatoes are growing. We are waiting for the next crop to come in. We already ate the first crop that came in. The ones from the first crop were small.

Well Y'all, I am going to go fix me a bologna sandwich.

Fire Dept. was at the house today

2011-07-14T00:37:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
One of the smoke detector/ carbon monoxide detector malfunctioned. I was at wal mart when C called me. I told her to open a door and turn on the vent fan over the stove. She called the fire dept. They came out and checked things out. They were leaving when I got home. We ended up having to take down all the smoke detectors to get them to stop chirping. We think it may be one malfunctioning or having a low battery. We will get it fixed in the next couple of days.

Well that was our excitement for today.
Y'all Take it easy!

Been sleeping a lot

2011-07-13T00:49:00.002-04:00

We made it back from south Ga. Sunday evening. We had a blast while we were down there. We stayed up one night till 4am chatting with my brother and sister in law.

I have found it hard to get motivated since we got back. I have been sleeping a lot till on up into the afternoon. Like 3pm or later. It's not good I know, but it is what it is.

Well Take it easy!

Going on a trip

2011-07-08T02:36:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
Were going back home to south Ga. It will be for a few days. We have some stuff to do with the club and see family and friends. It's going to be a short trip packed with a lot of things to do and people to see. I hope we don't spread ourselves to thin.

We are really looking forwards to going down there. We haven't made that trip in a long time. We both need a break. This is coming at the right time. We have only been back once since we moved up here to the foothills. It's such a long drive and money is tight.

I won't be on here for a few days because I will be away from the computer.

Take Care!

Rained on yesterday for the fourth.

2011-07-05T23:35:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
We went to see the fire works. I have been depressed and wasn't feeling like sticking with the crowd so I stayed in the truck. Lucky for me because the bottom dropped out with rain. Most of the people we were there with got soaked. We left before the fireworks because we were tired of getting soaked and it was hard to keep up with the baby out in the weather.

We are going home this weekend to see Family and friends.

Take it easy!

Those summer days

2011-07-02T02:13:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
We are enjoying the summer days. If it gets too hot we simply go inside where there is plenty of A/C and things are cool.

I have sort of made up with the guy at the auction we had a problem with. C went to the auction again tonight and helped her dad sell cabbage patch kids again. They did pretty good.

Now she is home and watching TV. We are making our plans for the fourth. We expect to see our friends and have a good time.

Well Take it easy,

Taking Care of the grand

2011-06-30T19:36:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
I am watching P the grand tonight while C goes to the auction to help her dad sell cabbage patch kids. He is a big time collector. He is thinning out his collection.

We have recently had problems with the auctioneer at the auction. C has made up with him, I have not. Time will tell. I am pissed still.

The pepper plants I had except one Tabasco plant died when I fertilized them a couple weeks ago. I have got some new plants and new soil to plant them in. I also picked up some sweet banana peppers, Jalapenos, and a cow horn pepper plants. The only problem I have is my porch is shaded and only gets 4-5 good hours of sunlight. For the plants I have it's recommended to have 6 to 10 hours of direct sunlight.

I am enjoying my plants and they are a great diversion from daily life and gives me something to do.

Well take it easy!

Late night post

2011-06-23T01:33:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
I did a lot of sleeping today. I forgot to take my medicine till late. I was feeling bad from not taking it. I watched P the grand this morning and let C sleep. She had a appointment to get the stitches out of her mouth late morning.

P the grands Mom took him today. He got to get out of the house and go play with one of his friends. She is coming to pick him up tomorrow. It is good for him to see and know his mommy.

Hey Y'all,
We got up early this morning and went to the VA for my appointment with the shrink. It was good. We may do some medication changes. I am still certified nuts.

Hey Y'all,
We pretty much took it easy today. Both of us have been feeling draggy. We had C's parents over again tonight. We fixed taco's for supper. We have been washing clothes and watching TV. We watched a movie earlier called the proposal with Betty White and Sandra Bullock. I have seen it before, it's good. Now C is folding clothes and we are watching a show where the Heff is getting interviewed.

Feeling kinda down

2011-06-17T23:01:00.003-04:00

Hey Y'all,

C and I both were feeling kinda bad today. I slept till 3 or 4 this afternoon. C did more sleeping than she usually does. We both just didn't feel good today.

C's parents came over for supper. We have them over nearly every night. They are going thru tough times and if we feed them, it is usually the one good meal they get in a day. I don't mind and I enjoy their company. They really like seeing P the grand. They sing him songs and bounce him around. He has a blast! They do too!

My bell pepper plants are dropping their leaves. I fertilized them the other day and I think I burnt them up.

Well, Take it easy!

Thursday at Cornbreads

2011-06-16T23:57:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
Today wasn't a bad day except C was not feeling well today. She got to feeling better by supper time when her parents came over for supper.

Her dad rode with her to the auction after supper. I stayed home and took care of P the grand. It was easy. He went down for the night about 8:00 pm.

C is back home now and relaxing and watching TV for the night. She is watching "The real housewives of New York". I am on her computer in her room where the TV is. She is the TV watcher primarily. If something looks interesting that she is watching, I will watch along. I'm not big on Real Housewives. I'll watch a little of it because they are rich and so inbred at the same time. But it isn't long before they make me sick. Lol

Tooth trouble

2011-06-15T10:31:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
C had to get a tooth pulled yesterday. It had chipped and rotted down to the root. It was not a simple extraction. One of the roots broke off when the tooth was coming out. The dentist had to grind the bone and do a lot of digging and picking around in her mouth. She did Ok with it even though it took a while.

She woke up this morning in pain. I went and got us some bagels this morning. They are soft and chewy enough with butter on them. C ate and then laid back down for awhile.

P the grand has a dentist appointment today. We will take him this afternoon.

Well Take Care!!

Fun much deserved weekend

2011-06-12T23:17:00.003-04:00

Hey Y'all,
Saturday C and I made arrangements for P the grand to be took care of all day. That enabled us to go to the national presidents meeting which was going on only a hundred miles away in SC. We spent the day there and got to see a lot of people we know in the club from all over the nation. It was hot as blue blazes over there.

We came home and fell asleep before midnight. P the grand slept late which let us sleep late. We got up kinda late for a church Pic Nic. We made it out to the state park and there was a full service going on. After the service we had a picnic and P the grand had a good time. He got to run around and play and get all dirty. We had to go from there to meet some more of our family at a pizza place a long ways away from the state park.

C has been driving all this weekend. She is super tired. I drove very little this weekend. We will sleep very well tonight.

Hello

Hey Y'all,
We are doing well. it's tough in this day and age but we are getting use to it. I tried to do a post the other day, but blogger would not post it. I hope this post makes it thru.

I got some tomatoes planted in buckets, some Tabasco peppers and some green bell peppers. They are on my front porch. We are looking forwards to harvesting the produce from these plants. C won't eat the Tabasco peppers, but I will make some pepper sauce with them. We use bell peppers and tomatoes all the time now. It will be nice to have fresh off the vine/ vine ripe tomatoes and bell peppers.

Payday

2011-06-01T08:14:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all!!
Today is the first day of the month and you know what that means!! All those with a fixed income get paid today!! I can go pay some bills either today or tomorrow.

I am going this afternoon to make arrangements for our home owners insurance. I hate to pay for insurance because it seems like I am giving money and lots of it, away for nothing. But God forbid if we ever need it, it will be there.

This month is going to be a expensive month for bills that means not a lot left over for food. I know God will bring us thru.

Well Life rolls on!!!

Sunday Night/ Monday Morning

2011-05-30T01:46:00.002-04:00

C and I are watching a star trek movie on TV. Today has been a day of rest and relaxation as it should be. I did get out and go to Wal mart a few times. C's parents came over for supper tonight again. We had tortellini soup for supper that C made. It was really good.

P the grand has been a good boy today. The only thing he has done that was anywhere near bad was strowe his toys all over the place. If that is all he has done bad in a day, I can handle that.

Well take it easy and remember the reason behind memorial day.

Today is going OK. P the grand woke up at 0700. I am letting C go to sleep for a few more hours. I'll get my sleep in later. P the grand is being a good boy this morning and not getting into too much trouble. Nick Jr is on the tube.

Feeling better today

2011-05-21T02:27:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
I am feeling a little better today. My situation still sucks but somehow we are going to make it thru. It looks bleak but C and P the grand comfort my soul.

We had C's parents over for grilled hotdogs. We have them over to the house a lot which has turned out to be a blessing. We enjoy their company. We said when we moved up here that the reasons we wanted to move here was, so that we could be closer to C's parents and P the grand. And to help out with them. So far we have been doing that.

I like the weather up here too. Even when it's hot, it's not as bad as down south. I forget to count my blessings.

Well today is the day that guy is predicting will be the rapture and the end of the world. I personally think that no man knows the day. Only God knows the day and the hour.

Gloom dispare and agony on me!

2011-05-20T00:28:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
I have been really depressed here lately. I have been in touch with my doctors at the VA. C wanted to take me down to the hospital last night. My doctor talked to me today and asked about me coming in. I don't want to do that just yet because I know there is a good chance they will admit me to the hospital.

To add to our troubles we are in trouble financially. We are living beyond our means every month. By the time bills are paid there just isn't enough left over for much else. We are having to rely on credit cards to eat and put gas in the truck. all we can pay is the minimum payment. We are getting deeper in debt. I never thought I would be living like this.

Yawn-- Up Early This AM

2011-05-17T08:58:00.002-04:00

Good Morning,
I am up early this morning so the wife can sleep a little this AM. I will lay down later on after she wakes up. I am watching the grand son. We just ate buttered toast. He is all sticky from a lollipop he was eating earlier. Lol his grand ma is going to be mad at me later for letting him get sticky. I wiped him off with wipies.

I am not sure what we are doing today. We don't have money to really do anything. We'll just have to see.

Hey Y'all,
My computer is fried. I may have to take it to somebody to get it fixed. Some kind of virus has got into my computer. I don't have the disks to my computer. We can't even get it to fire up.

I spent today sick but got over it. My in laws came over and we had supper. While we were getting ready my next door neighbor came over and knocked on the door. I had asked a few days ago to have his friend come over and cut my grass. Last time he did it for 25 dollars. This time he wanted 45 dollars to cut it because it was tall. I told him I needed to ask my wife. I was pissed but C said we needed to get it cut. I told her I wasn't gonna get raped by this guy. so I went back and told him I would give him 35 to do it. We went back and forth for a minute and he said no he couldn't. I walked off and came back and finished my supper. I called a good friend of mine and asked him if he knew anybody that could cut it for 35 dollars. He said he thought he did.

Cool nights, warm afternoons.

Hey Y'all,
Today I spent laying around the house. C was gone helping her dad with his cabbage patch kids. He only has 3 or 400 of them. He is a collector from way back. He is selling some off. J had P the grand son till this afternoon. When she brought him home, he went down for a nap and didn't wake up till shortly before C got home from helping her dad.

C made meatloaf for supper tonight. It was really good. She cooked it in a pan designed just for meatloaf that her mom gave her. It's like a double pan that all the grease goes to the bottom.

C was really tired tonight. I went into her bedroom a few minutes ago and the light was out and she was snoring. I still had to do my pills. I don't know if she took hers or not.

Hello Gracious Friends

Hey Y'all,
I want to take time out to say thank you to all my readers. your comments and knowing you are out there make me feel special and good. Recently one of my family of readers mentioned the swamp in a comment. Those were good days. I didn't know how good I had it back then.

I wasn't the one who was so sick today. C couldn't sleep last night, so I let her sleep in until J came to pick up P the grandson. We were going to have a friend over for supper. We decided to call C's parents and invite them too. C's dad collects cabbage patch kids. He sold some of them today and turned a good dollar for them. He offered to take us all out to supper and invited our friend along too. We went to Longhorn's steakhouse and had a wonderfull supper!

Well It's 0125 in the morning. I am going to get off here and go see what C is watching on TV. Y'all take it easy!

Hello Y'all,
Today I have been in bed sick all day again. I have been sick with some kind of cold. I know y'all hear a lot of my complaining about how bad I have it. Well things have went from bad to worse. I was crying like a little baby tonight it has been getting to me so bad. C comforts me and I am thankful for that. I have bills I can't pay. I don't know what I am going to do. I may not have home insurance if I can't get some things worked out. it's time to renew. I didn't pay anything on my credit card bill last month and man, they socked it to me. I've got my regular bills to pay and it's time to renew my plates on my auto and pull along trailer.

I have had it so good for so long and now I am skimming rock bottom. It could be worse I know. I don't know what God is trying to teach me in all this.

We had easter at our house. Everybody came over here. C and my maw in law fixed dinner. We had a good time. We went to church easter sunday and P the grand got to easter egg hunt, Later on here at the house we had a easter egg hunt here at the house. A his cousin was here to keep him company.

Hey Y'all, We are getting ready for church right now. I don't have much to do, just throw on my overalls and some shoes. I have been getting up and going in the mornings the last few days. It's been a little tough, but kind of nice. We have been going to the storage spot and culling thru what we have and got together a load to take to the sale barn. we made a load up for Thursday night and then one up for Friday night. Just stuff hanging around that wasn't sentimental or didn't have any use. I sold my guns. We are struggling this month more so than usual. Now with the stuff we sold if we watch it, we'll have food to eat this month. I hate being poor and struggling. We went yard saling yesterday to hopefully find some stuff to resale. We had no luck. Everybody wanted premium price for their stuff. There was nothing to buy that we could make a profit on. We got tired and came home. On the way home we saw a huge house fire on the side of one of the hills/mountains around here. The house was totally engulfed in flames. Fire was leaping from the roof top and thick black smoke. It had to be a total loss. Well that's what has been going on with us, How about you? Cornbread

I am sitting up and dozing off at the computer. It's been a long night. We had C's parents over for supper. Afterwards they all went to the auction. I stayed home and relaxed.

I'll be glad when the first of the month gets here and I can straiten out my credit card mess and everything else.

Well Y'all, I'm hungry. I think I'll go hit the kitchen and find something good to eat.

Cooling off

2011-03-24T22:36:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
Today was kinda cool outside. This evening it is down right nippy. It's 45 on my thermometer as I type this.

We had C's parents over for supper tonight. It was spaghetti with salad and garlic bread. We all enjoyed it.

C went to the auction to socialize. I stayed home. We don't have any money to buy things there.

Well Take Care!,

Howdy, Long Time

2011-03-24T02:33:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
Since I posted last we have been to south Ga and back. We didn't have a lot of time to do all that we wanted to while we were down there but never the less we had a good time. I got my head shaved to raise money for the club. All of the chapter members were doing it. I was the first one and the person that won shaving my head made it into a Mohawk. We didn't bring our clippers with us, so I had to wait till we got home for C to shave it all off. Now I have a shaved head and a goatee and mustache.

We are really messed up financially from going down there even though the club paid for one night of us staying there. I hate being so poor I can't do anything.

Other than that we are doing good. P the grand son has got to the age he throws temper tantrums. Gotta love it!

The weather has been quite nice here. We are even running the air conditioning during the day a little. It has been in the 80's according to my thermometer.

Well, Y'all Take Care!!!

nice day today

2011-03-13T23:59:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
Today's weather could be considered a little hot. In the 80's anyway. That's pretty warm for around here.I think we are due some rain, I just hope it holds off a few days. I gotta haul another load of horse manure for a friend of mine, for the community garden.

I got to get the back of the truck cleaned out before we go down to south Ga coming up on the 19Th.

Take Care!

It's early in the morning, clocks have sprang forward.

2011-03-13T07:06:00.002-04:00

Hey Y'all,
I got up to go to the bathroom and had to check my computer. I have only been asleep a few hours.

I don't know if I mentioned it or not, but the VA finally got my meds strait. I was without my pain meds for almost a month. That sucked.

Well I just wanted to drop in and say hey! I am going back to bed now.

Good day today

2011-03-09T02:12:00.002-05:00

Hey Y'all,
Today was a good day. C's parents stopped by and later on J stopped in to see P the grand. We all hung out and chatted. J had to go to work and My In laws stayed for supper. We went and got pizza from dominoes pizza.

I have been nodding off a lot today. Getting back use to my pain meds after being without them for about a month has been rough. My pain is gone now, but I am loopy and sleepy from the morphine.

Well it's 0230, I need to put it down.
Nite All!

Monday at the VA

2011-03-08T01:45:00.002-05:00

Hey Y'all,
C and I spent all day at the VA today. I saw my psychiatrist and then C and I split up. she had to see about eyeglasses and a cold/congestion that won't go away. It turned out to be alergies. I went and got travel pay and got my meds straightened out. I know that sounds simple but I have been with out my pain meds for a month. I did finally get to meet my primary care doctor for the first time and we got it strait. I did a lot of walking today and it made me very sore even though I used my cane. I was in a lot of pain.

I am very sleepy as I type this and yes my back is hurting even now after taking my pain meds. It's rough having a jacked up back. I know it would be hurting worse if I hadn't of taken my pain meds. I am going to sleep well tonight.

I love my wife. She was a real blessing today. She drove today and tended to P the grand who we had to take with us.

Well, Take Care!

Tuesday's First of the month!

2011-03-02T01:02:00.002-05:00

Hey Y'all,
Today was the first of the month! I am gonna go out and pay bills tomorrow (Wednesday). Tonight we met C's parents to go out to eat. The restaurant screwed up both me and C's steak so we got our meals for free! We only had to pay for P the grands supper. I ended up bringing most of my steak home. I ate a little of it tonight.

C and I didn't do much during the day. I think we both had a case of the lazy bones. Keeping up with P the grand was enough for us.

Well It's after 0100 in the morning. I need to go to bed soon.

Take Care!

Another Sunday

2011-02-28T01:40:00.002-05:00

Hey Y'all,
We didn't make it to church this morning. I was up late Saturday night into the wee hours of the morning. I didn't feel like dealing with P the grandson at church. The church we go to is a small church with no nursery. We have to keep P in the seats with us. It is very frustrating on a good day, not to mention one with only 3 or 4 hours of sleep.

We Just kinda took it easy. I got out and went to Wal mart and picked up stuff to make hamburgers on the grill. We had hamburgers and hot dogs for supper tonight.

C watched the 83rd academy awards and saw who all got a Oscars this year. I watched part of the end of it with her. I mostly stayed in here on the computer. I got to chat with my oldest brother. Keep him in your prayers.

We got a big bag of baking taters at the auction this week. I baked one in the oven tonight. It was really good. I made it with butter and salt and pepper and sour cream. I know it's not the best thing for me like the sweet taters. But it sure was a good Irish tater.

Take Care!

Up Late, Listenin to bluegrass

2011-02-25T00:03:00.002-05:00

Hey Y'all,
Me and C have been fighting today. I guess you have those days when your married. Every day can't be perfect. We seemed to be alright by time for her to go to bed. We don't fight that much, so I guess I should consider myself blessed.

I slept most of the day away. (that was some of what we were fighting about) I have been depressed and stuck in a rut. I want to go to work to have something to look forwards to and to get out of the house. I just don't know what I can do or who would hire me now. I haven't worked in several years. I don't know how I would explain that. Physically My back won't allow me to do much and all I am qualified for is labor work. I'm so-so smart and bonified insane. I spend a lot of time going to the doctors. I have already lost one job back home because of that. As a matter of fact that was the last job I had.

Well, Take It Easy!
Cornbread

Howdy!

2011-02-24T01:23:00.002-05:00

Hey Y'all,
Hope you are doing well. Me I'm fine. Just having to watch it financially. We can't spend any money till the end of the month unless it is change out of the change jar. Things are that tight. It's OK because were gonna make it some how.

Not a lot has been happening this week. Yesterday we had C's parents over for hamburgers and hot dogs on the grill. They seemed to enjoy it and we enjoyed having them over. I think it does them good to get out of the house once in awhile. J took P the Grand today for the afternoon. It afforded us some time to do a little clean up around the house. It is impossible to do just about anything with him around. He is a handful and keeps us busy, especially C.

Well I hope everyone is doing well!
