I went to the movies by myself to see "Rightous Kill."  It was good, but I hate spending the money.  I miss my Coast Guard fun money.  I got laid off, with no return in sight.  Anyway, same old, same old.  I don't write in my journal unless I really have something to say.  Our economy blows, etc.  What a predicament all the greedy bastards on Wall ( Read more... )

Nothing much going on here.  The heat and humidity needs to go away!  I am so ready for Halloween; it's my favorite holiday.  Technology has made things so much simpler to scare people, lol.

Well, lucked out with Hurricane Fay.  We got nothing!  It's a little windy, no rain.  I don't think it's all the way up by us, but it still won't be bad.  A regular rainy day.  Vinny came home early since he has to travel over the Sunshine Skyway to get home from his work.  So, the TV is blasting as usual.  It drives me nuts!  Most of the time he ( Read more... )

I think I'll use the pressure sprayer today.  It scares me though.  It can rip your skin open if you hit yourself.  I'm not up for that!  Also, my nickname is Spacey Gracie.  Hmmm, may be not...I'll let Vinny do it.   It really looks like fun though.  May be if I had a wet suit.  I do have water socks.   Nah, better not.

July 30th I went to Phila. for my Dad's 86th Birthday.  I have been going every year since he turned 80.  He's such a cutie pie.  He still golfs and walks 4 miles every other day.   We had a nice birthday dinner at Shangrila.  I had Sushi.  I love Salmon Roe.  Mmmmm, Mmmm!  Everyone else had Teriyaki  Salmon.  Of course my Mother and I went to my ( Read more... )

 Today I read my book outside by the pool, and went in for some swimming.  It was great!  I usually can't relax long enough to sit out there, but it was very hot and humid.  I was also doing laundry.  In Fl. a lot of people have their washer and dryer in their garage.  Why?  Pleh, I don't know.  This is how our house was when we bought it.  It ( Read more... )

 I know everyone is having killing heat, except for Washington State.  They just had 6 inches of snow!  I'd love to roll around in that right now.  
    Mokey, my kitty, is still hanging in there.  The heat makes it hard to breathe for him, so he does know enough to stay in the house in the day.   Mom-Cat always sleeps in the house in the day.  She' ( Read more... )

Yesterday I had a B-Day party for my husband's Aunt at our house.  I'm getting to old for all that cleaning up and preparing.  I think depression doesn't help it either, lol.  I never liked the noise and commotion that goes with entertaining.  I don't even like to go anywhere too many people are.  I used to love concerts, art shows, etc.  I don't ( Read more... )

 So much time between posts, but not that much has happened.  In some ways that can be a good thing.  My Mokey kitty is STILL hanging in and doing very well.  I can't believe it.  He's finally back to chasing lizards and birds.  He had somebody in his mouth today, lol.  He loves to fling the poor lizards around and then chase them.  Mokey still ( Read more... )

I haven't posted in such a long time.  I've been so busy with my parents being down here.  They came right after Thanksgiving.  They go back to Pa. April 22nd, I think.  Anyway, Jan. 18th, my cat almost died.  It was the 6 yr. old Mokey.  He's my litle love bug.  He was breathing really heavingly.  I knew he was also lackluster the day before.  I ( Read more... )
