and the chills and maybe even a fever.  YUK. I didn't have time to be / get sick yesterday. I haven't had a sore throat or stuffed up sinuses in years!  So now i wait and see if i can get two days worth of work done in one day.  If i feel better. Yuck.
I was in a ptiiful state last night: feeling sick and wanting to be doing something. anything except being sick.  Nice try. I stayed sick .  Till i got up this morning. it had lessened up some what. YAY. Now if it just goes awy by this afternoon.......
These things have their own course and time to go through. They never asked me if it was ok..
ok, I'll shut up and just stay quiet.
I'm off

it's TGIF. and a beautiful weekend we have in store for you.

Well, thats what is forecasted anyway. Then we get a glimse of Novemver in October. burrrrr.  I have two big things to get accomplished before it gets too cold to work outside.
I've put off doing them for long enough. Just get it done.
It's going to be a nice quiet weekend.  I can hear the cat meowing to me to allow him to jump up on my lap. Now, and tomorrow, and the next day.....
Cats are like that.
enjoy the weekend.

So how much candy are you going to give out?

Me, I'll be holding the scooter the cat while watching " The thing from another world". The original. Love that fast paced banter between characters. Now that was genius.
So here we are, on Happy Thursday. Happy because I'm almost finished with raking the back yard of branches. YAY me. Now i have three carts sitting on the curb. But I may have to mow the lawn once more. Maybe.
Now I'm deciding if i should have brown rice, wild rice or white rice for dinner. I wanted to try something different. but 45 minute cooking time!!  and an electric rice cooker isn't that much faster.  So why all the rush?  Because I"m hungry and am losing weight. I get terribly hungry in the middle of the afternoon. I only eat breakfast, then nothing till supper time. And I do mean nothing. But it does pay off. This is good while I come up with what foods i want to switch to.  I mean, there's nothing wrong with the three food groups: grease,salt and sugar. But they're not too healthy for us.

We've got a cold spell followed by winter heading this way. Not all at once, but it'll creep along and make no pit stops. I'm glad. it's beautiful at this time of year. The seasons are so colorful.  It makes me glad I'm living here. Don't get me wrong, the desert looks beautiful too, but i like the  extream temperature changes.
Today is Happy Wednesday ( everyday is Happy to me) because I get to roll out the carts. YAY me. Almost feel like jumping on the table and doing my happy dance. But i'd probably slip and fall and hurt myself.  But I'm still happy today. The cat let me sleep in 15 minutes longer than i wanted. Actually, i wanted to sleep in : it's better for my arthritis is i give all the joints a much needed rest. But the cat said get up. So i got up, fed him. and he jumped onto my lap and went to sleep!  I nerve of some animals!
oh well.

It's Happy Tuesday..or, lets do the laundry day. "YAY"

Well you know I'm retired when i get excited by planing on doing the laundry.  "Watch me do a Happy Dance on a table".  Ok, maybe not that excited, but close to it.  Today is dry out Tuesday. That means no mowing the lawn or raking the leafs in the back yard ( not from my trees).
So yesterday, with the rain and cold temps ( a drop from 93 degrees to 49 degrees within a week is cold to me), I got involved with SKyRim again. They really added to it for the PS-4 version.  I'm going on new quests and new bad dudes.  It surely keeps me on my toes. A good RPG is always a great way to use your brain.
ok, time to start laundry collection. I just emptied the cats litter box.  Which reminds me I've got to find screws and retension the belt in the vacuum cleaner. ah nuts...

luckiely, we'll dry out by next Sunday. Maybe. Now the lawn definetly will need cutting. But it's going to have to be a tad warmer first.  I spent my Sunday reading the newspaper, or should i say, flyer. Because its that small now days.
I removed the AC from the window, only to get the window lock stuck. Had to get the kitchen stand so i could reach the stupid pin. Then it wouldn't come out. But, with the right word choice, it gently slid out.  I was cleaning out the corner where i store the AC till next spring, and found my disk of WIndows ME operating system. Wow, from 2000!  17 years later. No, I did not install it.
So here we are, on BLUE Monday, with no washing to be done. YAY US.
  I rode up to Walgreens with my neighbor. She walked her dog and saw two deers in the cemetary. thats only 4 blocks from my house. They must be hungry or its runting season.
Maybe us humans should adopt runting as a mating ritual. We males could grow antlers and bang our heads together to impress the females. While they look on in total amusment.
ah. Jung was right: " if you look inside, your dreaming, if you look outside, your awake".

I thought for sure we'd lose a tree or two. and its still raining. YAY for the rain, boo for the wind.  I got boggled up doing stuff i really didn't want to do. like writting my favorite graphic processing company. It all started because I didn't take the time to read their posting.  But all is striaghted out now.
I also saw a film yesterday afternoon that kind of caught my eye, till i watched it all the way through. oh boy. but its done.  Otherwise, i got a lot accomplished yesterday. vacuuming, fixing the vacuume when the screw fell out. did a small washing and charged up my laptop battery. Discovered my sort of new Bluray player wont connect to my wifi???  oh well.It also skips when playing back a video.This isn't even 2 years old!
ok, I'm off

Time really does fly.  Gosh, the grocery store had oodles of Thanksgiving decorations placed out. Lots of candy for trick-or-treaters.  and we have rain today. YAY.
So, with 400 plus chanels on cable, I watched one of my old DVD's: Demon City.  I started watching Dragonball, but thought I'd better wait till i had a little more time before I started that.
So today is look up license day: I'm trying to discover when our club first came into being.  1930 till now is a long long time. and records are not being kept that long ago.  I'll keep looking.
ok, it's saturday. go out and have fun.

That means we can have a whole 2 days of having fun and raking leaves and mowing the lawn in the rain.  YAY. IT's TGIF. Now on to the fun.  All diets are suspended till Monday. Eat away.
So, I'm trying to brighten today, because today is grocery day and I'm not sure what i want to get.  bssic stuff, sure, I know. But changing my main menu is difficult.  and one shouls not wait till there in the store to decide. Bad idea. You'll end up bring a bag or two of potato chips, cookies and yummy candy stuff. Not the stuff that makes for a good healthy meal.  I guess I'll just wait and see when i get there.
So for my Thursday night entertainment, I watched "Vampire Hunter D" and " Twighlight of the dark master".  These are old anime that I viewed on HBO or Cinemax. When they showed such fare.
