Thursday stuff...

Well first of all I Maj'd twice and almost a third time yesterday. The third time I only needed one tile to Maj and the woman in front of me Maj'd first and when I peeked at the tile I would have picked it was the one I needed but that's okay, twice is tits! It was a really nice game.

Today we have Dr. Green and Flat Jeter wants to go because that is where they have the aquarium with the spotted fish that he loves so much. He has started calling it Marcy. I have no idea why.

Sarge is really in a deep down time now, he is sleeping so much. I have trouble waking him up and getting him to the doctor is going to be lots of fun. Flat Skeezix says he'll help with that. He is being a bit of a cranky-pants too.

D#1 comes tonight for a few days to help too. Thank goodness for her. Chuck has been there too. I am so thankfull for them both.

Well cross your fingers for no hospital this time. So far so good. Have a great day. I know I will!

Happy Veterans Day to all our Vets!!!

November 11th is the day we honor all veterans. I thank them for their service. I am free to do what I want because of them and their bravery. They are all heros.

Finally the wind has stopped! And none too soon I might add. It was really wearing on my nerves. We are supposed to have MahJong today but one of the girls might not be able to make it because of a plumber so it may get canceled. I hope not because I was looking forward to playing.

It is also Prince Spaghetti Day although we won't be having any this week. When it's Sarge's "bad week" he doesn't want much to eat and nothing spicy at all, plain rice, applesauce, soup, crackers, that's about it. Maybe toast. But I hope you enjoy yours.

Have a great Wednesday. I know I will.

No, really, I found it!

Boy howdy it is still windy. I am about to lose my ever loving mind. Even the shutters are rattling now. Plus I don't know how many of you have ever lived in a highrise but let me tell you a little secret. They sway. They are supposed to sway. It's how they manage hurricanes and stuff. But day after day after day it is unsettling. Really unsettling. I think I need more fish oil.

This week I have lots of activities though and that will get me out a bit. Sarge is starting his sleepy period so he'll nap in the afternoons. I have Canasta today, MahJong on Wednesday and Friday. How about that? I am really looking forward to it too.

For Irene: I call them flat cats because they are photographs of real cats. I don't have a real cat, I live in a "no pet" building. People that have real cats send me photos of their cats and I make them my pets! And they are spoiled rotten!

Have a great Tuesday, I know I will!

Monday Monday...

It is still very windy here in paradise. In fact it is so windy we still have the shutters closed! The woosh of the wind hour after hour will eventually make you wonky. Flat Jeter (and now also Flat Skeezix) are antsy too. They have been bickering about who is taking better care of Sarge all day. And now Flat Skeezix wants a Flat Daisy. Will it never end? Will they all want their own blogs? Who can say. All I know is it is never dull around here these days.

So did everyone have a good weekend? Ours was not eventful (other than the antics of the Flat Cats) but we muddled through and now we start a whole new week. This is Sarge's bad week and we hate it. Starting Tuesday he'll fade and just want to sleep and be Mr. Cranky Pants again. I am definitely going to let the Flat Cats take care of him. They can just duke it out.

Can you tell I have not been out of the house and the wind is never ending? Am I completely losing my mind? If you said yes to both you would be right. I guess I should go take some more fish oil and make some crank calls or something...

Have a great day. I know I will.

Sunday stuff...

We had a nice time with Chuck yesterday. He now has nine months clean and sober. All in a row, nights and weekends too. Yup, nine months today. I could not be happier about it either.

Boy howdy it's been windy up here on the nineteenth floor! We even mostly closed the storm shutters so the windows wouldn't get so full of salt slime. If you have ever lived near the ocean you know what I mean about that! I seriously don't know how people that live oceanfront can ever open their windows because everything in their house would be covered in salt slime. It's bad enough where we live. At least it's warm and sunny and low humidity.

Don't think I took enough fish oil today because I don't know anything else. Well except that Flat Jeter sure had fun yesterday with Chuck. He got to ride in the cart at the WalMart and he was laffin' and laffin'! They looked in the fish counter too and Chuck bought some salmon and some scallops. Flat Jeter said he never tasted scallops before but he thought he'd like them real good. He thought he'd get the fish guy to give him one to try but it didn't work. I guess they don't do that at the WalMart.

Hope y'all have a great Sunday. I know I will!
