Busy days
Yesterday we had a Verizon guy here changing us from our old cable company to Fios TV. I already have my phone and computer on the system. It took him the longest to get The Curmudgeon’s TV hooked up. Finally finished it and I knew then, The Curmudgeon’s night was made.
Today, I have to move furniture, do laundry, and get things ready for the next interruption to our lives.
Monday, Bath Fitters arrives early in the morning to start removing the old tub and replacing it with a brand new shower. This will take them two days.
Unfortunately, depending on how long it takes, Tuesday will have to be split into shifts with The Curmudgeon and me. We both have to vote and I have a doctor’s appointment. I’ll stay here while he goes to vote and then when I leave for my doctor’s appointment I can stop to vote on my way.
Looking forward to Wednesday and some quiet. You all have a good one!

Did you sleep well?
If today is anything like yesterday afternoon, I’ll be going out with my camera. Destination: next door in the cemetery. The trees are lovely and I want to get some shots of some favorite tombstones and monuments.
I slept through the high winds yesterday. Nope, I didn’t hear a thing and I sleep with a window open. The Curmudgeon told me he had to retrieve our garbage cans from across the street. Never. Heard. A. Sound.
By the time I got up there was a nice breeze, sun, and it hit 70 degrees. Quite pleasant.
I did manage to take down the rest of the decorations and get most of them put away in the attic.
You all have a good one!
Changes and winterizing
Verizon arrives Saturday to hook our TVs up. We’ll be down to one bill a month instead of two or three. We had already switched our internet over, and our phone has been with Verizon forever. I only hope that The Curmudgeon likes this because after the first two months we begin to save a lot of money.
I need to shut down the pump and clear out all the water lines so we can do away with the pond by spring. Another savings on our electric bill, no heater or pump going in the pond this winter. It should make a noticeable difference in our bill.
Anyone want a black goldfish? I think he’s still in there.
You all have a good one and don’t forget it’s fall backward this weekend.
Bye bye pond. 😦
It’s sometimes hard to believe that the white dog is a few days shy of 12 years of age.
Okay big brudder, you started it!
I gonna get your foot!
Hehehe, can you tell he loves playing with her?
This happens morning and night.
Entertainment at its best,
Ouch.
So glad I had an already cooked 1/2 a chicken in the freezer last night. I was so not ready to stand and cook for any length of time. My back is out again.
I have no idea what I did. My back was sore for several days. However, when I woke yesterday it had gone to downright painful. This keeps up and my doctor will have a visit from me before my already scheduled November appointment.
Of course I’ve learned to never say anything about being in pain or feeling sick to The Curmudgeon because then I am subjected to how much worse off he is. (I only say, “call 911” when I have a heart attack.) If I am sick or sore I suck it up or take myself to the doctor.

Not sure what day of the Tecfidera we’re on…
Whatever day it is, I have seen much improvement over how The Curmudgeon was on the Avonex. He’s had the minimum of side effects, just some mild flushing.
I think the biggest thing for him now is to regain some muscle strength. Therefore, I won’t help him with the dogs in the morning if I get up early. He needs to walk around and get his muscles working.
I notice he’s using his walker less and is back to using his cane more. 😀
You all have a good one!
Wish I had more T or T’ers shots
Loved the light up green eyes and mouth!
I don’t think this little guy was too enamored of the mask though.
Try as I might I couldn’t get a shot of the spider leaping from the books.
Skully Gavin and Batty Patty!
You all have a good one!
Pictures…
Loveliest group of T or Ters we had.
G made minions.

You all have a good one!
We think we should auction Mr. Needleman to pay for next year’s prop.
Cya Saturday!
So, tomorrow night I may not get a chance to post. (Yes, I do my posts at night…in the wee hours of the morning) I will be very busy hosting a party and handing out treats to Trick or Treaters.
Guaranteed, I’ll be exhausted by the time I get a chance to sit down and post. Therefore, I will be doing my next post sometime on Saturday.
In the meantime, you all have a good one!
The pictures below are why I do this…
Have you had your chimney cleaned yet?
Well, we hadn’t had ours done yet this year. The chimney cleaners came today. Good thing they did. Our chimney was blocked. Not dirty, completely blocked.
This explains why we were smelling oil fumes every time the furnace kicked on. Explains my headaches of late too. Possibly explains my problems with thinking too.
According to the guy who cleaned the chimney, we are lucky to be alive. Probably because I always have my bedroom window open and keep the front door open all day until it gets too cold to do so.
When was the last time you had your chimney cleaned? Remember the life you save may be your own.
You all have a good one.
