so much todo about nothing
manOman! the increased work has been great! Of course it's easy to say that when there is an ulterior motive. Now, if I could just get the ambition to get a bunch of 'junque' sold off. I dread doing eBay anymore, but it seems like the only reasonable place to move stuff and make a few bux.
I'll work on that.
About a month ago, we lost track of the TT, the granddaughter ... again
There was no trace of the mother. I was in a panic. What happened to her and her 4 kids?
TT's f_a_t_h_e_r (used loosely) is the malemate's son. Enuf said about that for now. I try to make sure that the granddaughter has and is acknowledged as I know she feels abandoned by the whole clan -- and why wouldn't she? Her mother, Delma, had 4 kids by 4 different dads before the age of 21. Sad, I know. But, I will give her this, I think she is an excellent mother to those kids. On the other hand, never having the guts to be a mother myself, what the hell would I know? :)
Finally, a couple days ago, and thanks to my friend's help in CA, she was able to locate one of the other grandparents and find out where she and the kids are. They are all safe and I now have contact information for Delma's sisters and some other information on her people in case this should ever happen again. Which, I have a an aching suspicion that it will.
I bought a new vacuum. A Dyson. I've been an electrolux person all my adult life, but dragging the tank around has simply become a pain in the ass -- not to mention storing it. So, an upright Dyson it is. I like it, and it's pr'E.
I've been reading a true story about a husband that poisons his wife with arsenic. A red flag went up on my brain after reading the symptoms that this woman suffered with chronic poisoning. Ya know, the doctors cannot seem to pinpoint what is wrong with Cap'n Max. He has been suffering for years now and does not get any better and they say his prostate cancer is and has been in remission. Yet, they have no idea what is causing his other problems.
My friend (and his wife) Shar is an absolute control freak and has to feel needed. She handles all intake to his body, which of course, is his food, liquids, medications, cigarettes, etc.
Oh, that is just ridiculous to think that she would do something like that. Isn't it?
I've been seeing the backcracker once a week. She is an interesting ,wacko kind of gal. She is into psychic stuff and homeopathy and acupuncture, and I could be wrong, but there is something else. Something like witchcraft perhaps??? I'll continue to see her. She has done wonders to my back problem. But then, I started smoking AGAIN, about the same time the back problem subsided. Personally, I think the back problem was a nicotine withdrawal symptom.
I need a different desk and I need a new project. I take pleasure in refinishing furniture and have done many pieces over the years. I was having a problem finding an old wood desk that was in good condition and a price range I was willing to pay and that had all the things I wanted. Finally, I posted the request to the local freecycle.com, and last night I got a response from a gal. She said she had one that will get thrown out if I don't come get it and the only problem is that it has one cracked drawer -- that could be easily repaired, she said. So, this morning I'll be taking a trip to check it out.
On an educating note, the OK! cousin has been looking for a part for a Chevy pickup that he is restoring. This has taken him to various 'car heavens'. He made an interesting observation: There are about 4 to 5 times more Fords in the car heavens than there are Chevys.
Draw your own conclusions.
And a little note to you textual voyeurs -- thank you so much for stopping by! I'm guilty of not responding to comments, but please know that I do read and enjoy them tremendously.
I have to ask a favor though. Please, if possible, don't link this site.
There are several people from my 'spaces' days that I simply cannot 'bloggingly' face after that idiotic and life changing act that the malemate did. Occasionally, I need a place to vent about him and the situation -- and what better place than a public forum --- incognito, of course! haha
yeah, right.
TIA :)
I'll work on that.

I can't say anything about the grandkids...all I know is that situation has heartbreak potential written all over it. The way families split up nowadays, it's soo easy to hide if one wants to. (Well, not from the friggin IRS OR bill collectors...but from real people who really care about you.)
If I am one of the 'linkers', I do apologize. I have no idea how to do or not, but if so, tell me and I will stop PRONTO!
I like the IDEA of refinishing furniture. ANd I need projects, too. Right now, my project is reeling in Pierre and changing my address to Costa Rica. :P Come to my blog and oogle him. He's kinda cute. :)
Hugs,junqueddy junque. :)
the mouse who's headed to New England again in twelve days for more wiz abuse :P
btw...just fyi...i dunno what the malemate did (and ain't asking tho I admit to being curious) but NOBODY--and i mean NOBODY--who cares about you (like ME!)thinks any the less of you for whatever it was...what you did in response...what you will do. None of that.
*I* can only speak for me and I am damn glad I found you again because I really do care.
mouthy mouse
