So I didn't get the yard work done yesterday becauseof the rain. However I did get most of the other stuff done!
I have my laundry going now.........and chicken thawing in the frig. for tomorrow's dinner. All I'm going to do today is vacuume the 1st floor and dust my bedroom.
Right now I'm watching "Love it, Or List It"...........................home owners have thier homes remodeled, repaired, and made to be more functional according to their needs and at the same time a realtor has them look at other homes that meet their needs................then they choose between loving their present home, or moving to a different home...........I love it............addicted to it!
Boyfriend will be home next Saturday

saturday
I didn't do much of anything yesterday. I should have but didn't.
Today I plan on paying my bills and doing a little yard work........and I need to caulk some areas of the front porch...................hopefully there will be time to do some painting.......and I'll probably do some laundry.
Both the kitties spent the night outside. I worry about the raccoons getting them when they spend the night out..........made me smile when they filed through the front door this morning...........both of them ate and are now napping.
This is day 3 of 4 days off from work. I just don't want to work anymore.......have been taking as many days off without pay as I can afford.........and using vacation time here and there..............
I went to mom and dads house one day last week to help dad with a new CD player he bought. He had Johnny Mathis playing...........I remember when I was a child waking to Johnny Mathis singing while dad hummed along as he shaved. I loved the smell of his aftershave mixed with the steam from the hot water......and it always made me smile when I'd hear him sing.
His and moms 60 year anniversary would have been next month. I was talking to him on the phone the other night. He talked about the day they got married...........how my moms aunt took them to Indiana to marry..(mom was 17. my aunt signed for her)...........he told me he remembers everything about the day. "I can remember what your mom was wearing, what I was wearing....the car we drove.......we had $8.00 between the two of us.(he laughed) I remember it all." They spent their honeymoon at the drive-in.................................the one thing he could not remember is what movie was playing. I googled it without any luck............
Dads been going to a citizens 12 week police academy..................he got to "work" the 911 center, talk to people from the DEA, see all the different drugs, visit the jails and courthouse, look at car wreck photos and autopsy reports(coincidentally the first autopsy report he read happened to be that of a friend of his who was killed in a car wreck), and will work a shift of his choosing with a cop from the city of dads choosing. He's planning on working the 12mn to 4 am shift in one of the tougher (but not horrible)neighborhoods. "I hope I see a fight!" lol

all of my posts from April and may have disappeared...................and my email isn't working some of the time.......not sure what the problem is................
got up at 3:30 am to take boyfriend to the airport. he's going home to Colorado for his brother-in-laws funeral. i went to the grocery store after i left the airport, came home and looked over the papers from the IRS, and then at my tax papers..............called dad and asked for help...............made copies of papers, went to dads, prepared papers for the IRS and faxed everything to them. i felt relieved to get it done......for now anyway!
went to the bank then the cemetery after i left dads. put some cheerful, pretty, yellow roses on moms grave.........came home and took a nap......got up from my nap and made some bacon and eggs for supper, did the dishes then sat on the porch with kitties, and talked on the phone with a co-worker..................
Current Issue interesting......

Oldest son comes over once a week to wash his car. If I'm home I sit on the porch and chat with him while he works!
Mr. Bojangles new favorite place to sit. One of my patients husband gave me the afghan. Kitty likes the texture of the afghan I think.
Some of the deer that come to the back hill in my backyard. The picture is fuzzy cause I took it from inside the kitchen.
A co-worker brought these to me last year.I'm pleasantly surprised they survived!
I love the purple stuff...
My tomatoes are growing like crazy this year. This plant has about 30 tomatoes on it.............my spicy peppers are doing quite well too!
The little tree boyfriends sister sent to me when mom passed away. It's cute. It needs to be transplanted.
a work in progress... :O) you don't have to be good at it to enjoy it!
I got a letter from the IRS saying I owe them 44,000. I don't. I'm filled with anxiety......just sick.......hopefully I can get the whole thing resolved sooner than later!

I finally got the Jaquar (Hyundai) out of the shop.
Hyundai put a new frame on, and replaced all the inside
door handles. The chrome was peeling and if you
werent careful the peeling chrome would cut your fingers. So all that
work was free! Hyundai said the ball joint arm was not bent, and did not need
to be replaced......................... son changed the oil, replaced the front brakes, sanded and buffed the front light covers..............and I had 4 new tires put on.............it still runs great.........and now it feels great too!
