Mama needs a new pair of shoes.

You know when you get a new shirt, shoes, or maybe some new little gadget, or when you decide to pick up some hobby like crocheting, and then a few days, weeks, months later . . . you're just kind of over it? I think that's what's happening to me and blogging. It was like a fresh new little hobby, a new form of entertainment. Now . . . I'm not blogging as much, and I haven't even been doing my morning blog reading, coffee, bagel routine. I don't really want this to be a hobby that I'm done with . . . any suggestions to keep up my blogging stamina??

It still doesn't feel like Christmas to me . . . the tree is up, however, and looks marvelous if I must say so myself. I braved the mall with Gabby and Josh at like 8 pm last night. I get so clostrophobic (sp) when I'm in large crowds of people like that. I just want to knock them all down. People are ridiculously rude and mean. It's supposed to be the holidays, and people are pushing you over with their oversized purses!!! I bought myself a new pair of black flip-flops yesterday, and now this morning it's 27 degrees. It was like 78 all week last week!!!

Hammy the hamster is still not liking his cage I think. Well, maybe he is, but he keeps looking at me like Where the F am I?? or maybe it's Who the Hell are you? He just looks really cofused. But at least he's clean.

OMG!!!!! 4 days and couting until my very first meeting with the AOC!!! I just may die!!!! I'm not sleeping very well (partially thanks to Hammy and his chewing on his cage thinking he can bust through it), At first I was excited, now I'm scared to death, and I know on THE day, I'm going to be so nervous, and probably won't be able to say anything...I'll meet him and my mouth will just be hanging open like an idiot . . . but of course, I've been thinking, what if it's me that doesn't like him??? I don't think this will happen, but it's possible, right?

I was pumping gas a couple of days ago, and out of the corner of my eye I see a stray dog. A very very big stray dog. Am I the only one who does this? You see a big stray dog, and you're thinking please stay away from me, but then you're thinking that if you think that, the dog will know with all his psychic abilities, and he'll come over and smell your crotch, or bite you anyways. So then you're thinking just ignore him, don't think about him...and nope nope nope, don't turn around and see if he's coming back your way...can't this gas pump any faster...do I really need a full tank? I was trying so hard to watch him, without watching him, without him knowing I was watching him, without him using those weird dog knowing things and knowing I was watching him anyways . . . weird . . . does this come from having chickens chase you when you're a little kid living in Germany?

I think this comes from something, because now it seems like your not only afraid of frogs, but large dogs as well. What happened to make you so afraid of them? I would have called him over and kissed him and taken him home with me! But that's becuase I am really crazy for animals!
I'm not really afraid of dogs at all, big or small. It's just when they're running around with no collar, no leash, no person near them, and I think about rabies and stuff . . . I don't know . . . you don't get scared of giant stray dogs when they're running loose and could bite the shit out of you?

Sometimes I think, if I stop blogging will anyone notice? Or will they do what I do and find a substitute for me. I would really hate to have to find a substitute for you. So please don't stop blogging.

I have no advice to offer regarding your dog phenomena. Well, maybe get some pepper spray or something. I keep pepper spray in my car for the wandering drunk that occasionally accosts me.

Hmm, what else? Oh, my girlfriend in Texas that I went and saw in July? Her doggy had 7 puppies. I heard them yipping on the phone. They sounded sooo cute ... little labradors. Oh, her kitten ate her three hamsters. That's it, I think. XOXO

Merry Christmas.
Jeanette - I'm supposed to watch my sisters cats when she moves while she looks for a place . . . I'm so scared they're just going to stand around the hamsters cage and eat him up!! LOL!!

I won't stop blogging. It really is a great way to vent, be creative, expressive, etc. I just get bored with it every now and then . . . well . . . actually it's probably just my life that's boring me!!! LOL!!! This phase shall pass . . . Let's hope!

You blog I die and our phone bills go up. Get real. Also..you've always had a problem with attacking animals..maybe you should get the pepper spray? Get over the hamster thing, dude. It's not really yours anyway. LOVE YA.
He is too my hamster!!! Gabby wanted a snake!! My phone bill has already gone up . . . have we been talking more lately?

No, Elizabeth, big dogs, even ones that are running free, don't scare me. If it had foam coming out of its mouth maybe, but other wise, I would try to kiss it. I love to kiss any and all animals. My husband thinks its gross, but now he loves animals too!

Happy Freakin' New Year

Written January 1, 2021, when I tried to start a Wordpress blog , but failed because I'm old and it's too complicated. 2020 and I had a love/hate relationship. I hated seeing what was happening to others and the world. I dealt with my fair share of struggles, but mostly, I think I was the closest to contentment that I've ever been. 1. I LOVED working from home MOMO working from home 2. I felt closer to my family 3. I didn't mind the slower pace and less to do 4. I was able to have a better work/life balance 5. I felt more productive at home and at work 6. I did a couple of home projects - helped my parents landscape my front yard, gave my bedroom a makeover with my sister, and reorganized my pantry with her Before After Pantry Makeover Bedroom Makeover 7. I spent the best summer with my son and dogs at my sister'shouse - laughing, crying, painting rocks, getting to know my fur nieces and nephews (Wall-E, Maggie, Leeloo, and funny, little, Peyton who we lost in...

FYI

Just so you know...my computer is sitting here, on the floor, next to me...at my parent's house!!! Woo Hoo! I've taken the first step in getting it fixed...but alas, there it sits...I'm not the only slacker in the family! Also, I turn 30 in less than 20 days...

End of Summer

Who knew that at 28 years of age I would be writing a post about how I spent my summer. Don't people usually stop talking about their summers after a certain age? Say like, 22? It probably wouldn't be such a big deal to me if I wasn't still a student who doesn't haven't to have a "career" year round. Well, here it is . . . the end of summer. I go back to work on Monday, and school starts on Wednesday. My days of sleeping in, going out, etc are over. I still get every weekend off when Gabby goes to her dad's, but we'll still be a lot more "scheduled" around here. End of summers when I was younger always felt weird because you were sad about the summer being over, but a little excited about going back to school, shopping for school supplies and clothes, thinking about if there'd be a new cute guy in class, getting to see your friends everyday. I have a whole section in my memory that is filed under "Summer". It's my favori...
