OH...HERE WE GO......

Well...I have fixed brother #2's brace 857 times.....I wish I had a mean bone......I would jam it up his a$$......The last two time's he was over ..I did not have to fix it tho...I think...maybe by chance he has it?  Maybe? Please? ...Anyway..I took it off and he has this huge bulky thick brace thingy wrapped around his shin..and an ace bandage.....he said the sores on his shin were bothering him "the one's I bandaged for you last time?  yes..they itch....So wrapping them up so they don't get air helps....(?) No....Please do not wrap it like that...gets to warm and moist.....so I re-clean and bandage them with fresh neosporin told him NOT to wrap it up again...it itches because its healing....or trying too....so put the brace back of (after giving it a good dose of febreeze..PU)
Before putting his brace back on I notice a large bump on the top of his foot......Do you have another bandage? No...he said..ok off with the sock......BIG HUMP on his foot.....what did you do?  I don't know....Might want to make an appointment with......I have one on the 15th ...I think he says...(?)ok let the Dr. know about bump.....ok....so on went the brace...he watched me intently...again....lol

I cannot wait till he gets this off......

~~~~~~SIGH~~~~~

OH WHERE TO BEGIN........(CAUTION...BROTHER#2 STORY...)

Oh where oh where to begin.........A few weeks back Brother #2 calls me up...I'm in the hospital he says....I asked why? He said I kept passing out....I said ok thanks. So I decided to go visit him.......I get there...he is sleeping.....I wait...3 min and he wakes up.....I asked what was wrong with him....he said something about low blood sugar and dehydration...Well do you eat?  I eat only one meal a day...It's all I can afford..(If he wouldn't sell his food stamp money for real money he would not be starving)  I said do you drink alot of water?  no....(!) and wonders why he is in the hospital......anyway.....apparently he broke his ankle during one of his passing outs.....they didn't put a cast on it...they gave him one of those stupid "BOOTS"  a few days later they let him out...and the next day appears at my house......"Can you fix this for me?"........I look down....he has taken the brace off for some reason and could not figure out how to put it back on right....So he had an ace bandage wrapped around it......so I put it together as best I could....and told him NOT TO TAKE IT OFF AGAIN.....yea right.....the next day.......he is back...."Can you fix this for me?" I don't know what this idiot was doing this time......I have never seen such a tangled mess......any way got it fixed the best I could.......and said...DO NOT TAKE THIS OFF AGAIN......I WILL NOT FIX IT AGAIN FOR YOU...  (yea right)  Well 3 days later........B#2....appears at door.....I did a dumb thing (really) I look down and he has his knee brace wrapped around the brace thingy on the boot....I said what did you do idiot? (and yes i call him idiot...if the shoe fits wear it) and the soft thingy that belongs on the inside is on the out side so the hard metal or plastic stiff part is next to his leg...and was complaining it was hurting him...(ya think)  then he informed me what his stupid thing was.....he TOOK A SHOWER IN IT!!!!!!   (!) So I fixed it for him again.....BUT now he has straps missing and two extra pieces (?) so I did the best I could......and slapped him in the head with the thin thing (for the sole of the foot) that is attached with Velcro or was anyway...and said..please do not come back for this problem........so I had a few day so f peace....shows up at my door.....no brace...I think he just had his knee brace wrapped around his shin...well at least I did have to fix it......I asked where is your brace.......he said something about it costing $137  I don't what that had anything to do with it but...whatever..... 

Any way   while I was in the hospital he told me he wanted to   make B#1 "Power of attorney"   I said ill let him know...so when I got home I call B#1 and told him he was in the hospital and why and told him he wanted him to be power of attorney he was like..pass......So any way....guess what I was asked today........Will you be my power of attorney?   I'm like ummmm  NO.

I don't think he understands what that is....I know very little about it......so no I do not want the responsibility.....Our sister is getting a bang out of this..she will have NOTHING to do with him but still worries about him and wonders about him



OK enough about the half wit.....I went to the Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk today....was ok......Cept for the DAMN GNATS!!!!!!  BILLIONS AND BILLIONS of them!! I have been going and participating in this walk for 18 or so....and have frozen my fanny off.......got soaking wet in the COLD rain and even a few flurries of snow....but GNATS....never.....


OOh my  I am chatty today.....

Later......

AND......WE WAIT....................

I think my interview went well.......He said they will let me know if I get another interview in a few days......~~~SIGH~~~ So we wait....... Anyway..hope everyone had a great Easter...Mine was boring...stayed home..alone.....but... that's OK.

That's all for now....

BROTHER # 2 STORY.......

OK On my last post I told you I had a Brother #2 story......OK here it is....On (or about)  the 16th of February..... I got to SA for coffee....(SA is "Super America" AKA Speedway) I got back home about 8:30 am and pick up my phone....HMMMMM  2 missed calls and 2 voice mails......It's Brother #1 ......hey Sis..this is  (Bother #1).......(Brother#2) called my cell phone again.......I can't get him to not call it.....(he only uses his cell phone if he leaves the house) anyway.......I just got the message now....he called about 6:30pm and told me he took 300 pills.....(big red "cry wolf" call flag there)  and by the time you get this I'll be gone........."    he called me because he can't find the number to 2nd district phone number.....could you look it up and send them over to check on him....and let me know....just send me an e-mail....I will be a church all day....  

I'm like OK........looked up the number sent it to Brother #1.......was not going to call at first but....(I should have went with that thought) SOOOOOO I called...and explained the situation........they sent ambulance and police.......NOT 10 minutes go by....my phone starts playing "Welcome to my nightmare"..Alice Cooper....Brother #2's ring tone....(I know right)  Screaming at the top of his lungs  "WHY ARE YOU SENDING AN AMBULANCE TO MY HOUSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" I SAID......Because DICKHEAD YOU called your brother and told him you took 300 pills.......He said...."NO I DIDN'T I TOLD HIM I HAD A HEART MURMMER..." (?) May be he thought that's what he told him....

So what caused the latest drama in brother #2's life  you ask......Well I'll tell you.....apparently he broke all 3 of his T.V.'s.....trying to move them by himself......I suspect what happened is he prolly took too many of his muscle relaxers and tried to move them...or he sold them....No idea about the truth there.....

Expecting another "Snowstorm"  15 days till Spring my fanny......


anyway.....that's about all for now

Later.......

ARE YOU F***ING KIDDING ME!!!!

FOR REAL!!!!  I went to the ER on the 31st of January....for my shoulder that I hurt from a fall I took on the ice on the 15th of January......OK so I knew it would be expensive but DAMN!!!!!!!!! 
1ST  bill I got was for...$899.51!!!!!!! (for ER visit and x-rays(?) ).......Second bill I got was for$53.00... OK I can deal with that (was for the radiologist).......I got one today for $508.00!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! for the DR. who JUST asked about 10 questions....NOTHING else ($443.00) and an electrocardiogram $65.00!!!!! for a grand total of.....$1460.51!!!!!
The worst thing.....they really didn't do anything for it.....not much they could have anyway it was just a slight strain....BUT STILL!!!!!!  $1500 DOLLARS????

They do have a program to help...but I have "some" money in a 401k so I am SURE that will be a factor.....

So any way I am done bitchen now......

On February 12 they moved our statue of Thaddeus Kosciuszko   to be refurbished...or as we put it went to rehab...LOL oh guess what.....I figured out that if I log on with  google chrome  I get all my tabs and can now add pics....can you stand the excitement!!  He was moved on his 267th birthday!! The statue has been up since 1907! And needed this refurbishing badly....and all the funds were privately raised No tax money!! I remember as a child playing tag around the base of the statue.

This is old roomie   a few years back...

I am now taking an online class..for Windows 2010.....the book cost more than the class.....(!) And still torturing myself with the math...lol 

Well anyway....That's what's happening in my world......I also have another "brother #2" story for you too..I just don't feel like typing it now... It's a doozie too....
