WELL LETS SEE HERE........

Well let's see what torture was put on me in the last month since I wrote last......My washer broke......They decided to start paying us every two weeks now instead of weekly......currently between paychecks now.....I have no bread.....so off to the food bank I went....guess what.....they don't have any freaken bread either......what am I supposed to eat for lunch.......I will die ......been nice knowing you....GRRR.


I am out of my metformin.......ran out 4 days ago...numbers are still good so I am not freaking over it.......started walking again,finally warmed up enough to do so....even got a new walking buddy for Tuesdays and Thursdays!  still trying to take off what I put back on during the winter.....


OH...and day 5 no smoking.......NOT HAPPY.....but....I can't afford it anymore anyway....hopefully  I will succeed this time....we will find out Tuesday the 31 when I get blessed with a paycheck again...lol.  But the thing that is bugging me the most...I have NO ICE.....I like it in my water...I don't have any ice trays...I'd never be able to keep up with them anyway...lol I can go through at least 2 -7 pound bags in a week.....especially if it is hot outside. Like it is now...yes we went from cold directly to hot again this year.....hate when that happens..

"The Quilter" is working my last nerve......assisted her with another quilt last week.....according to her it was crosswise ( secret quilting word I guess...looked ok to me...lol) turns out the "top" was not big enough for the liner......(?)

Seen "the know it all" (the guy I no longer work for) Friday I said hi...he didn't respond Oh well....whatever......

Anyway...that's what's up in my world.....

Later.....

WELL...QUIT SECOND JOB.......

Well....had to quit second job.....he popped a circuit or something....went in to visit him on Wednesday.....was "complaining" of all the things that were not being done......(?) this..and this and this....blah blah blah....I cleaned his house better than my own.....(there is another lady working for him too)....and then was complaining no one is washing his windows.....my first thought was.....you are blind!!  legally blind......your BLINDS are DOWN all the time....because the BRIGHT  light hurts your eyes (he can see some)....and says he can't see out of the windows.  REALLY?! Anyway....told him I would wash them on 
Friday,My next day to work he said something about my "tone"(?)......well come Friday I was not feeling great at all..so I called in (very rare for me) I called him to tell him I would not be coming in and he got an attitude with me  and said OH I seen THAT coming....(?)and hung up on me.  SOOOOO Saturday when I went in he said we have to have a talk.....You and "N" (the other lady) must of had a good talk on Wednesday....From now on you clean what you want to clean and if you don't want to clean don't .....Or did "N" call you and tell you all about it already....I told him she did NOT call me and he said OH I bet she did......which is to me the same as calling me a liar......I am many things but liar is NOT one of them....That's when I took his key off my keychain and tossed it on the counter and told him I QUIT......and let the door slam behind me........Anyway....I will miss the extra cash but I won't miss the stress...... I will still worry about him tho...he has trouble with his hand and has trouble cutting veggies and things.

On a positive note....I do have another part time job lined up...every other weekend....

I wish Spring would get here I AM FREEEEEEZING!!!!!!! Had to drag out the electric blanket. after I put it away.....

OH  Guess what!  I got my bathroom light fixed!!  WOOHOO!....Now hot bath and a good book!! HAPPY HAPPY! was broke for 4 years or so..LOL.

anyway..that's whats up in my world...

Later............

HI IT'S ME AGAIN.......

Well yes I am still alive....my residents are working my last nerve......especially "the quilter" She is a riot! She is 89 years old.....and still quilts by HAND!!!!! Pieces them together by hand and quilts them!  She is amazing....she had some Batting issues today so I had to help her straighten it out.....3 times...LOL....She was looking for me   and asked  "the know it all" where's that white lady? Apparently the last time we pinned the backing on I put it on upside down.....lol No she never remembers my name....

The "Church Lady" (aka  "the demented old bat") also...never remembers my name.....calls me Merl....she is normally the sweetest thing.....just don't piss her off.... ask how I know this...lol messed up her oatmeal one day..sheesh.

"The know it all" is my second job....he is ok..has hired two of us...and usually keep him company for two and a half hours...after the little work we have to do for him...

Then there is "The Artist" he is the youngest of the residents we take care of...he is AMAZING!! He is "physically challenged" he only calls if he needs dishes done or some veggies cut, he does his own cooking tho.
and he is an amazing artist..

Anyway...we had nice weekend weather last weekend! we had two days in the 50's!!!! Even took a nice long walk...from 27th street to 8th street....AND beat the bus home...LOL.

Well that's what's up in my world

Later.............

HELLO!!! YES I AM STILL HERE!

YUP!  Still here.....doing well. Winter finally showed up (darn) had VERY COLD  sub-zero weather for a week....burrr...You know the kind that makes your face hurt.....
I have gained a bit of weight..no walking..weather is just too cold...my numbers are still mostly good...anyway...

I am seriously thinking of joining a gym...and go after work for an hour or so....I am thinking Planet Fitness, seems reasonably priced and supposed to be a "judgement" free zone.....and NO LUNKS...LOL. 

My second job starts February 2nd!  so that will be a few extra bucks in my pocket.......

OH!!!!!!  and.....I finally got signed up for health insurance...WOOOOT!!! I will get a check up before I join the gym.

Anyway.....that's whats up in my world..


Later............

WOW!!!!!!! WHAT A MOVIE!!!!

WOW!  What a movie!!!   I just got back from seeing Star Wars!!   I LOVED IT!!!!!!  I could however do WITHOUT the 3-D......gave me a bit of a headache and whiplash...sheesh.... and the ships that seem to come from behind you.....and the burning embers all over...I have never been to a 3-D movie so it was all new to me.....Didn't care for it...was cool, but....  and some parts made me gasp!  I won't give anything away...


anyway....Beginning January I will  have  another job...taking care of one of the residents I used to take care of....for a few hours a week....He has been having issues with the other agency's that he has tried. He found out today he could hire his own person...(or 2) so he will be diving up the hours between me and another aide.....wooo hooo a few extra bucks for us...

We are having a nice spring so far this winter....only 3 or so inches of snow..(so far) which is  OK by me.  And that was back in November....LOL.  Some of the daffodils are even trying to come up.....


Well hope everyone has a Merry Christmas  and a safe New Year!!


That's what's up in my world....

WELL....YES.....I AM STILL HERE.....I THINK.....

Well  I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!   I volunteered to work my coworkers shift for her so she could spend the time with her family.....( I had nowhere to go anyway) She said how about  half the shift? We don't  do anything till late afternoon anyway....OK by me.....So I worked....but got fed good!  Weather sucked..RAINED ALL DAY.....Well....I guess it could have been worse.....1.5 inches of rain = A LOT  of snow.....Which we got our first of.....5.5 inches or so.

     My friend lost her husband the day before......puts a bit of a damper on the holidays......

Other than that not a whole lot going on.....OH!!!! My sisters boyfriend got a deer !!  WOOT!!  I am tasting deer chops now!!  I only have the burger he gave me left  so hopefully he will give me some more chops!  I make a mean venison Swiss steak!!!   I have to tease cousin over this because he has not gotten a deer in about 2 years now....so every time I have it I rub it in...LOL.


Well that's what's up in my world.....be safe
