Thank God That's Over With

Today is a day to dance in the streets. To hug thy neighbor and give your pet an extra treat. Today is the final day of Hurricane Season. It's is done and over with. I personally plan to dance on my ceiling but not to Lionel Richie.

Thought

As long as any government has unbridled control of the way people can communicate there will be warfare.

The Good Old Ways

Some one asked me what it would take to get me to go back to a theater to see a movie. 3D, better audio, what? My answer. Outlaw other people. Screaming kids, feuding couples, cell phone idiots, and loud talkers. I want to get my drink popcorn, sit down and watch the film in a cool theater without having to put up with anyone's crap.

Blackout.

The power went out this morning. It is amazing how fast the house gets so hot so quickly. After about half an hour the power came back on and I am thankful for it.

Summer Nights

It is 79 degrees outside. The air conditioner is not whining under the strain of keeping the house cool under the heat of a summer night. Winter is a few months away and I can't wait. Now just to survive the rest of hurricane season without watching everything being blown to hell.

Good Day Sunshine

Today was a good day. Due to the cloud cover the tempature was not as hot as usual. We also got a wounderful rainfall. Over 1.8 inches of rain.
Saddly we heart of hurricane season has yet to start. We have two more months of storm season to survive.

July

It is July and getting hot here. However we should get some rain for the next few days and that should keep the temperature down a few degrees.

Yesterday

Yesterday was a hard day.
I have had worse but it was such a good day to start with then turn bad.
It is hot here and getting hotter.
After doing some stuff outside in the heat my heart started pounding and I kept trying to lay down and cool off but outside forces kept demanding my attention.

I can not wait for hurricane season to be over with even though it goes on to November. Actually I can't wait for September to get here and for things to start cooling off.

Time For Your Morning Heart Attack Sir

Last Thursday I woke up to my heart racing at a break neck speed to parts unknown.
By the time the cab got here and we got to the emergency room it was seven am. Just as I walked in one of four ambulances showed up carrying someone having a heart attack.
I learned later that seven in the morning seems to be time to have a heart attack. Everyone is waking up and getting ready for what ever the day holds. So they are placing their once happily sleeping hearts under stress and as a result are having a heart attack.
So after the paper work a nurse took me to a bed where I laid and listen to my heart do its impression of a warp engine in over drive. I also got to listen to a woman fighting to breath, a guy coughing up a small portion of his lung and two elder people having their morning heart attacks. After almost half an hour plus a nurse came in and did more paperwork. Took blood samples and Finally gave me some oxygen. half an hour later a doctor came in and we talked a bit and he announces "Your heart rate is almost normal so now I am waiting to hear from your doctor. Can I get you anything?"
I asked for a cold Sprite remembering Doctor Cooley telling me if I felt bad I should have one as they did good things for me.
I never had a better tasting Sprite.
A short while later filled with another ambulance showing up and a visit from a friendly janitor who moped up the floor with a big smile on his face.
Finally the doctor shows up again and announces I am low on Magnesium so they will give my some via IV drip. The doc stayed a bit longer and we talked a bit. The nurse set up the IV and left me to watch the clock.
The nurse came in unhooked me and had me sign even more paper work. And with that my big scare was over.
The whole miss adventure took three hours.

Update

Well I missed a whole month last month. So here an update to tell you what been going on.
Last month the 23rd was my birthday. It was quiet except for going to the big HEB grocery store. There was a birthday party for me in yo ville that Sunday night.
Other than yo ville cyber items the only birthday presents where the ones my friend Nancy sent me. She sent me a Dallas Cowboys t shirt and some home made bread and smart balance popcorn. My cousin came down and spent the day with me. He did a few little choirs for me and we got to talk some.
I been enjoying the cold weather but sadly it is coming to an end It will soon heat up and I will be miserable yet again.

A Pony Tail Between Friends

For the first time in months and months I wound up in the ER. My heart was racing at a rate of 187 beat per minute.

This was scary.

I went to the wrong ER meaning I went to a different one than I usually do. I was one of two people there. They wasted no time getting to work on me.

They give me two shots that did nothing. Then after some talking to the ER doctor they gave me a third shot. It made it hard to breath for about two seconds then my heart started to slow down. After that they just watched me and we joked around.

One nurse offered to cut off my pony tail.



They where all very sweet and gentle.

Blue Monday

Monday was spent making heavy decisions without any heavy lifting. I contacted a church to see if I could find some help with keeping the house clean. There are people who will help but they want 50 dollars. I don't have 50 dollars to spend.

I still have yet to make the funeral arrangements. I am not looking forward to doing this.

A friend of mine was thought to have committed suicide. Thankfully he has not.

What Men Are Thinking

1. Men are NOT mind readers.

1. Learn to work the toilet seat. You're a big girl. If it's up, put it down. We need it up, you need it down. You don't hear us complaining about you leaving it down.

1. Sunday sports. It's like the full moon or the changing of the tides. Let it be.

1. Crying is blackmail.

1. Ask for what you want. Let us be clear on this one! Subtle hints do not work! Strong hints do not work! Obvious hints do not work! Just say it!

1. Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every question.

1. Come to us with a problem only if you want help solving it. That's what we do. Sympathy is what your girlfriends are for.

1. Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument. In fact, all comments become Null and void after 7 Days.

1. If you think you're fat, you probably are. Don't ask us.

1. If something we said can be interpreted two ways and one of the ways makes you sad or angry, we meant the other one.

1. You can either ask us to do something Or tell us how you want it done. Not both. If you already know best how to do it, just do it yourself.

1. Whenever possible, Please say whatever you have to say during commercials.

1. Christopher Columbus did NOT need directions and neither do we.

1. ALL men see in only 16 colors, like Windows default settings. Peach, for example, is a fruit, not A color. Pumpkin is also a fruit. We have NO idea what mauve is.

1. If it itches, it will be scratched. We do that.

1. If we ask what is wrong and you say 'nothing,' We will act like nothing's wrong. We know you are lying, but it is just not worth the hassle.

1. If you ask a question you don't want an answer to, expect an answer you don't want to hear.

1. When we have to go somewhere, absolutely anything you wear is fine... Really!

1. Don't ask us what we're thinking about unless you are prepared to discuss such topics as baseball or golf.

1. You have enough clothes.

1. You have too many shoes.

1. I am in shape. Round IS a shape!

1. Thank you for reading this. Yes, I know I have to sleep on the couch tonight; But did you know men really don't mind that? It's like camping

Looking For Einstein Cars Keys

The Large Hadron Collider costs over 6 billion dollars is 17 miles in circumference and buried 320 feet under ground and was shut down because a bird lost his baguette.

I think this thing find Murphy's Law particles.

Sure As I'm Sittin' Here

Today was another panic ridden day. One near disaster after another.

I have reached a decision. One of the things that is driving me to depression is how dark the house is. I think I will find some rope lights and wrap them around the door frame in the kitchen. Some nice cool blue light in the kitchen in stead of the darkness that now lives there.
