Just get along.

It truly is a wonder that we haven’t blown this earth of ours to bits.:

I play an online game and I see so many people taking quick offense that it shocks me to my marrow that we are still here.

It’s only a game and yet some people act like it is of vital importance.

No people, it isn’t. It is a distraction, a game, a lark. It is no more important than a dust mote in the sun.

Step back and breathe.

Ever try to catch up on sleep?

I have.

It never works.

Seems that each time I try to take a nap, someone, some dog, the phone, the doorbell, something… conspires to prevent that lapse into REM sleep.

Once that happens I can’t go there. Wide awake I cuss out the world.

I should sleep so well.

Scheduled to death again

I no longer have a life.

Nope, I have a schedule.

My life is ruled by appointments.

Take this month, not only do I have a couple of appointments, but so does The Curmudgeon–3 in one week alone.

Lucy also has one to get her teeth cleaned, which means two trips to the vet’s office one to drop her off in the morning and one to pick her up in the afternoon.

Alcohol suit up

 

Not a morning person…

Never a morning person.

Call before 10 a.m. and you will either get a total bitch or a person who is completely disoriented.

All my friends know better than to call me before 10 a.m. and the smartest ones wait until after noon.

Therefore, for me to go to my cardiologist appointment every 6 months is not an easy thing to do. The latest appointment he has in his office near us is the one I always take and that is for 11:40 a.m.

This time they called to change it for an earlier time, by more than an hour, because he had to leave early.

I dragged my ass out of bed and sucked down a cup of coffee, took care of the dogs, showered and dressed, and was there on time. That in itself was a complete miracle.

The fact that I arrived wide awake and actually joked with the staff and him was unbelievable.

It won’t happen again in my lifetime.

Gone for the day

On the calmer side today.

I had a dentist appointment and told him if he had any trouble while I was gone he should call 911.

You see my dentist is a periodontist and my appointments average out, at the very least, an hour-long.

Comments were made on my Technicolor hands and chin. Jokes were told about them on my part.

I climb in my car to go home and a message flashed up on my dashboard. “your key fob battery is low.”

Crap…I don’t even know how to open the danged thing. Tried Advance auto parts for a new battery and they couldn’t open my key fob.

Decided to go to my car dealer and let them help out. Best idea I could have had.

I love Rothrock’s everyone is so sweet there and they treat you like royalty even for something so small as a key fob battery. They not only sold me a new battery, but they put it in for me.

Rough day…

So glad I have good neighbors next door.

After having to call 911 once to get The Curmudgeon up from the floor and into his bed, I was desperate for help when he, once again, was on the floor.

I banged on the door next door hoping to get someone…The boys and S weren’t home. I was just about ready to call 911 again when V arrived at my door. She’s stronger than I am and soon had The Curmudgeon back in his bed.

Don’t know what I would do without them.
