Still Mad

Once again it has been a while since I have written.  I checked in and the last time I wrote I was mad about politics and I guess months later I am still mad. Not quite sure how to change that.  No one seems to be doing anything about it. I didn’t come to write a “I’m mad about politics post.” I came to write about the year 2020 and how we have finally have reached the “future.”  Well, to me anyway.  

2020 anything when I was little was the future and now that I am here I am amazed I have almost lived a half decade! I can’t wrap my head around that but it’s true, I have lived for a while even though I don’t feel so grown up in my head.  Grown up is my grandparents but even they have all passed away.  My grandmother was 97 last year when her heart gave out and my father's father passed away after an unsuccessful heart surgery to try and fix his heart.  Having them pass did make me sad that I am getting closer to being alone.  

Don’t get me wrong, I have people but as you get older those people pass away and that can be sort of a sad thought if you go there. Anyhoo, 2020 is the future.  It’s kind of a scary one with all that is going on in the world and I hope we come out of it okay but it still boggles the mind how people’s minds are all different.  How we all think different things and ultimately, how we don’t compromise. 

In the year 2020, I thought we have all learned the great humanity lesson and be working together traveling in space like Star Trek. But we have a long way to go and I wonder if I will live to see all the people coming together to be the human race.  Hum. The future.

Random Thoughts as the Weekend Closes

Today I got a friend request from my mother-in-law. Will she embrace the FaceBook? We wait and see. Technology is cool...I got to speak to my friend in Hong Kong today. The BlindSide is a really heartwarming and good movie. I didn't know what to expect. I saw Sandra in blond hair and I thought cheesy. Now I can't decide whether I want her or Meryl to win the Oscar. Cats are really nice creatures. I haven't really had much exposure to one before. I especially like the fact that you can hold them like babies. I wonder if I stole Mr. Chuckles if anyone would notice? hum. Bartenders blowing fire makes for an interesting drink at the bar. Plantains are better when they come with your meal and not as an appetizer. I met a man who wanted to see Leap Year. Krueger continues to take jobs that suck ass and take up her precious time. Sorry CougarTown screwed ur day up Krugs. We missed u at the movies today. Ever since I got Mo I have meet the most interesting people ...

Behind Door Number One

Have you ever watched those TV Game shows where they have a couple of doors and behind one is a grand prize? Well, this weekend the hub and I found out what was behind our Door #1. The hubby and I are starting the beginning phases of landscaping our backyard. Our first step, was to clean out the area behind our garage. When we moved in, there was about 2 feet of walking space behind our garage the rest of the area was covered in vines. Vines were growing on the roof and generally it was a mess. Not wanting the vines to take over the roof, we I started to clear out the vines last fall. But after we cut a million vines with only a pair of clippers we gave up and decided to clean out the rest in the spring. Spring came around and we didn't do much until one day when I was sick a few weeks ago, I ran into our gardener. I showed him the mess and asked if he knew of anyone who could come clean it out. I could tell he was actually, quite happy for me to broach the subject of ...

Time Is Flying

Man, back in September and October, I thought time was going by so slowly but now that we are in November and half way through it, it seems like time is flying once again. Maybe that has a little bit to do with me being a lady of leisure these days. My doctor put me on bedrest for the remainder of my pregnancy. I went into his office all stressed out over the situation at work in early November and he said "this Friday, November 4th, will be your last day." I was like "Excuse me?" Doc put me on disability because stress is bad for the gestational diabetes I already have and for the apparent high blood pressure reading I had that day and some of my tests indicated I was at risk for pre-eclampsia. My new job, is to go to the hospital for neonatal stress tests, twice a week, on Monday's and Thursday's with a weekly OBGYN appointment on Thursday's after my hospital appointment. Throw in some eye doctor appointments with an eye specialist (apparen...
