hello again !
Seems like it's time to chat again, it's late, almost midnight, don't know if will get to sleep tonight if i don't get this stuff off my mind, so, here goes...
First, went to the ortho man on monday regarding the ankle surgery that was set for this Friday, only to find out he couldn't find a pulse in my left foot, and my toes were purple as heck, dusky is the word, so he tried with the doppler, still, no pulse audible, so, HALT for the surgery, and he wrote a consult for a vascular surgeon, i came home, wrote Dr. Malm a note and faxed it to him, and he called in 5 minutes ! NO SHIT, only 5 minutes, with the name of a doc he recommends at Palos Hospital, so, i called and have an appointment with him this Monday, he will undoubtedly order an angiogram and see if/where the artery is blocked and proceed accordingly, either medication, a stent or by pass surgery, thrill, thrill, but, better to find it now, then have something happen...but what the ortho was worried about is that the surgical wound wouldn't heal, so ankle surgery is delayed till we find out...will let you know.
Second, A while back, i stated that i wouldn't be sending anymore blogs, if you want to read them, for you to click on the link. well, the hell with that, im going to explain the reason, tell it all, tell the "truth" of who got pissed and why and just let it be.
In the second blog i wrote, way back when, i said, simply: well, this wont' let me copy/paste, but it was about my friend, Lynn, who called all in a dither, about something, and i didn't say what at the time, but then she ate a 20 piece mcnugget dinner from mcdonalds, went and got her nails done and felt better....
that's "all" i wrote, well, it pissed her off enough that she has ended our 47 year friendship, just totally ended it, said that i'm toxic, that she's always thought i was smarter than her, that she envied my outgoing ability to talk and meet people, and that she now realizes I'm nothing...just a big, fat nothing...and lots more, it was totally vile and awful and at first i was hurt by it, then pissed, now, i'm just finished with it, her, all of it.. so, i never ever want to hear about her again, think about her again, as far as i'm concerned, she's dead. what it boiled down to, is this: she had her teeth pulled, about 7 years ago, at least 7, and i've been friends with glenn jones for.....36 years, and in all of these years, he and i have continued to see one another, talk on the phone regularly, he's come over to the house, and yes, we've had sex: all these years, even though he's been married, I've been in a relationship with Stan for the past 6, but even before when i lived in the country after butch died, glenn came over early in the a.m., had coffee, sex, more coffee, but it's mostly been a deep,deep friendship, with benefits, (lol). well, glenn had his teeth pulled some years ago, and one day he told me he was having trouble with his dentures, and i told him about the dentist lynn went to in Pontiac and liked. well, years and years have passed, and she was having computer problems in florida, and i couldn't help her, but i told her i would have glenn call her and he could walk her through it, he's really good with computers.......but, glenn "never" cared for lynn, all these years, he's thought she was jealous, angry, spiteful, but he was nice and he called her and walked her through the problem with the computer..
well, lynn "decided" she would like to have sex with him, because he was "nice" to her....and they began chatting on yahoo messenger, and she asked me if i still had sex with glenn, and i told her yes, well, she said, "don't have sex with him anymore, i want to", i said, well, go ahead, i don't own him, his wife does, but if you want to, go for it, if he is agreeable," well, he wasn't ! but, he did ask her for the dentist name that she liked.....OMG !~~~ THE FURY !!!!
she called and screamed at me, "HOW COULD YOU HAVE TOLD GLENN JONES I HAVE DENTURES?" i didn't even remember, it was 6 years ago......but, i said, "well, he has dentures too and wanted help from you"....omg, she then said, "I CAN NEVER TALK TO HIM AGAIN, AND I SURE CAN'T FUCK HIM, CUZ HE KNOWS I HAVE FALSE TEETH" OMG !!!!!!!! i said, men don't care if women even have teeth, it's not teeth they are interested in..
she said, "I will never talk to you again, tell you anything, trust you again and I hate you, your a toxic friend"... and has made trouble for me with glenn, and after all these years, he today wrote me an email and said "leave me alone" i had asked him his "opinion" about what i blogged, and he gave me his honest opinion that lynn is a private person, and i shouldn't blog about her anylonger, but i had already quit, he also said, that' i've changed since the car accident and not for the better, and i know that i have, but am working hard daily with therapy, both cognitive and with an actual counselor to find out what is wrong, how to improve it, and what to do..
Well, the relationship with Lynn is gone, and i'm glad, cuz she has done a lot of hurtful things that i never told anyone, but i am sad that glenn has chosen not to be my friend anymore, that is a loss, but i will just think of him as being dead, cuz to me, he has died..
some time ago, my friend, Virginia's little melanie, and she was only about 18 at the time, i was at their house, feeling kind of low about my lack of self esteem, and mel suggested that i write little snippets of positives and tape them all over the house, the bathroom mirror, the kitchen cupboards and i did...like, I'm smart, I'm pretty, I'm a good friend, I'm neat, I'm attractive, you know that kind of thing... well, they were up for only a week, and on a saturday, only Virginia, my friend, Annette and Lynn were at my house, that afternoon, as i was in the bathroom, "I'm sexy" was on the mirror and someone had taken black ink and scratched through it, "everyone" , Virginia, Kathy, Stan and even glenn, said to me, "lynn did it" she's jealous that your feeling good about yourself.....
when i asked her about it, she vehemently said, "NO, I DIDN'T DO THAT, HOW COULD YOU THINK IT WAS ME?".....and she didn't speak to me for one year....
i've always, always known it was her, but forgave her and believed her..
she also always told me she wanted to have sex with Tom, my husband, she had sex with a great many of our "friends" husbands, even laying "in" bed with them, while on the phone with the wife crying, "my husband is cheating and i don't know with who"
she called another one of her friends, "douche" cuz the woman had sex with one man in the p.m. and another at night and didn't douche in between, and stunk, the woman lived with lynn at the time, some friend, huh??/
She says that her boyfriend, Dave, has a penile implant, tells everyone that, but won't tell him even that she has false teeth...has a "boy toy" in florida she fucks weekly, when dave is golfing, and she is friends with daves ex, carol, but says carol is on pills and is high all the time, that his daughter, Tracy, has a retard for a son, oh, she is vile,
now, i'm stooping to her level, but she threatened me first, so, i told her i was going to do this...and i did, i'm true to my word....and it's not because she ended the friendship, but lied to Glenn, added a sentence into an email i sent her, that i wrote, that i would tell his wife, joyce about our long friendship, sex or something, i never ever did that, but she has cost me the friendship of glenn jones, and that's a serious thing to me... glenn has been there, when tom died, with my horrible marriage to McMillin, we weren't intimate during those years, but he was there, on the phone, talked me thru a lot of pain, after butch died, he's been the one steady man in my life, that i could depend on to talk to, to share pain, happiness with, and i've been there for him, now, it's over, it's ended...
so, have you read enough, it's out, the reason i asked you each if you wanted anymore blogs....
well, i will only blog about myself, funny stuff, family stuff and if you want to share, i will...
i know that none of you know who else i send these too, but if you get this, then i count you as a "friend", and i have been truthful, have kept your confidences, not gotten into the middle of anything, but, i'm not taking the damage lynn has done...due to her jealousy of my having kept you in my life, of my having had "other" friends, through my lifetime...and she has been very jealous of you,
so, i'm gonna close now....almost an hour has passed and i will sleep like a baby having gotten this off my chest and out of my head...
so, i would now like to hear from each of you, if you still consider me a friend, or if you too, would like the relationship to end...i will honor each/every request/thought.
and I am, still tonight:

Thursday, October 22, 2009
oh, it's rainy, windy, gloomy, just a poopy day !!!
but, the sun is shining in my heart !!!!!
I made beef/cheese enchilada's for supper, and refried beans/cheese, it was yummy !!!!!!
One week from tomorrow, the knife !!!! my ankle, will be fixed !!! one way or another, and all i can do is pray/hope it is going to be okay, like new again, after some time of recovery. I'm starting to get afraid, no backing down now, it's forward for me !!!!
Do you watch The Bonnie Hunt Show? i tape it daily and then fast forward thru the commercials, i think she's just great, each day brings something new to learn, laugh at, and her mom, alice, is soo funy via the webcam with her advice and he Polish ways, which i totally relate to. today she talked about being a child in Chicago, in the polish neighborhood, and the dad's would send the kids to the neighborhood tavern with a galvanized bucket for beer, and the owner/bartender would give it to them, such free and easy times, no one even thought a thing about it, and i relate to that time, it was so much simpler back then...golly, in the little town of Leonore, the kids, Teen agers, would sit on the porch or steps of Smitty's tavern and watch the guys drag race or open their engines of their cars...there was only 1 cop for those little towns back then..or Mary's tavern, but i think it was an older crowd there. we had such fun back then, just hanging in those small towns, lostant, wenona, the sweet shop, eddies tap on 51, dumping the wagons of corn over, just riding around the country roads all night long, listening to WLS, dick biondi, John "records" landecker, and stopping to dance if a good song came on, parking out under the stars with the mosquitoes buzzing our heads, and oh, we had so much hairspray on our heads, how on earth could those boys lick our ears or make out with us....
it was "watch my hair", and "you can feel me, but don't touch my tits", cuz we thought we had small ones, we were so strange about that... and it was a sin to even think about birth control, but not a sin to screw, well we could confess that, and be forgiven, brother, we were sooo naive back then...but, oh if we screwed, they would "love" us till the next girl came along...lol
but, we're none worse for the ware, and that i know of, NOT EVEN ONE of us got any STD, did we???????????
so, what new shows are you watching on television??? not much for me, nothing really new that i like, the old things still, like law and order, grays anatomy, (though I swore i wouldn't watch it this year) it's same o, same o...but, i do like brothers and sisters, another soap though... i think my brain needs some stimulation, but, i sure don't get the crappy games on facebook, can't figure them out for the life/death of me, so screw it !!!!! i can't even get off two sites i joined accidently, can't figure that out either, how to get off barry manilows, ( I call him Barely Manly), cuz i don't want to be on any gay sights at all, just me, and i don't even like him, he's boring to me..
did you hear, arrowsmith has hung it up? the injury the hunky steven tyler recieved by being stupid did it for all of them, glad i did see them in concert at least once....will miss them, but time has run out....now, the stones, the eagles have it all going on. oh, i got timothy schmitts newest cd, "expando" it's awesome !! so, he's my new favorite now...and of course, joe walsh, in my next life, i'll be joe's main squeeze !!! i'm sure of it...
where to do? what to do?? questions, questions, but now it's just time for me to concentrate on healing and being the best i can be come spring...in all ways, work, life, health, friends, i figure i have about oh, 25 good years, left to drive, travel, have fun with friends, and i 'm going to make the very best of it, and to be with my family, daughter, son and grandboys...and of course, little, cute, sweet winston...and the cats, 2 of em, binky and furbie....well, maybe about 10 years left with them..
so, Saturday, weather permitting, Stan and I will travel to Normal to see the Illinois High School Marching band competition, he has 4 students in the lincoln way band, and last year they placed first..so this year, they are great tooo, and we will see a lot of good bands that day, it will be my last time, so i will look forward to that, the rain is "suppose" to stop at noon, lincoln way is scheduled for 3:52 p.m. exactly, then if they place again later in the finals...so, i' 'll dress warm, for the rain and just tough it out. i know it's going to be a fun day for us, and might be the last of those too, my ankle healing will take a lot of time then...
Stan and I are getting along okay for now, still planning on splitting though, his idea, not mine, so i don't think there is a thing i can do to salvage that, and if he doesn't like me the way i am, i think it's his loss, cuz, ya know what, i'm a good person, loving, fun, nice as a rule, with periodic moods, but who doesn't have those?? he sure has bad moods, but i guess it's okay for him to do that....
Oh, my friend, Darrelle, wrote today, she is back from Paris, had a great great time, saw everything, ate wonderful French food and i am looking forward to seeing her, maybe this week end, i asked her to go to the movies....so, i'm glad for her !!!!
well, enough for today, i wish you'd write a comment, but you have to go to that link i sent you last week in order to do that....
you have a nice, wonderful Friday and then the week end...hope you have fun, and do what ever you want to with your time, cuz after all, it is "your" time toooooo...aren't we great people???????

I can't believe it's been a week !!!
But, it surely has, i was just looking back and this week went so fast, did it for you too???
Actually, not much to report here in Mokena, but it is nicer today, warmer the next 3 then rain again.
I got my stitches out of my left leg a week ago, and took the steri strips off today, so, by next week, the 30th, my leg will again be ready to be "butchered", oh, but for the very last time...
i'm surely afraid, but also eager at the same time to get this left foot/ankle fixed and hopefully, I will be able to dance in the spring again, i've sure missed dancing, let alone walking correctly and wearing regular shoes, oh, won't it be a great 62nd birthday present to "me!".
and i'm looking forward to Thanksgiving too, I hope Justine will come here to fix dinner, she is such a good cook, but if any of you reading this are coming this way, I would truly welcome a visit, some gossip, a chat or two, just watching t.v. with me.
and last week, we found out what is wrong with my head too, well, the latest thing wrong, not "everything" certainly, it's old age, lol, but i did sustain quite a bit of injury to the right temporal lobe, the doc gave me a book about it, and we've talked quite a bit about my actions, behavior and how i can improve upon the injury. it's too late for anything medical, cuz Loyola really screwed up, they were "concentrating" on the surface bleed, not the inner bleed, and it's my fault too, though i wasn't aware of it at the time, i do accept the blame, i wasn't aware that they even tried therapy, and insisted on leaving the hospital,i wasn't even in my right frame of mind, but i did it, so i have to live with the repercussions...but, today, i know it...not that i'll know it tomorrow, that's where you come in, to just stop me if i get out of hand, hurtful, nasty, just say, "Sherry, your doing it", i might argue or say no i'm not, but you can either hang up, walk away, be tough cuz i know i need it, and i will accept it eventually.
So, I'm making B-B-Q'd shortribs in the crockpot today, recipe from a new campbells cookbook, yummy.... and i made my friend, Linda's, scratch pumpkin muffins over the week end, and froze 4 ziploc bags for the winter, mmmmmm they are just great !!! ask me for one when your here with coffee...
i also made, Judy's chicken soup with dumplings and froze two bags, stew, 2 containers, and later today, will make homemade potato soup, getting ready for the surgery and want to have good stuff on hand for stan to take out of the freezer and heat up...i was a girl scout, "BE PREPARED" was our motto and i took it seriously....lol
My friend, Darrelle, is in Paris, and she even took the time to email me, God love her!!! and i pray she's having the time of her life !!! and, my friend, Susan, made me quite a list of movies to watch that she recommends, she's also an awesome woman/friend, and don't breath a word, but she met the "right" man, oh, i'm soo excited for her, and i told her about the book, Act like a Lady, think like a Man...i think every woman should read it, it should be "required" reading..a P.E. class or something.
I know at least 4 of you who will be glad to hear from me today, let me know if i said one thing offensive, maybe i'm not a good judge of that now....i only want to do this, cuz it's good for me, and i even asked Mike, my counselor, and he said, keep it up..so, i am..
I have even written notes for several of you, so, you must think i'm good at words, and i use to be, just trying not to be hurtful, cuz it's instant, no chance to put it away and read it before sending it...like in the old days... but the days aren't old anymore, and i'm not going with the Ipod with all those apps, and don't understand much on facebook, all those dumb, silly games, just don't get them and don't even want to...i have too many books to read, real books...and i still like paper forms of things, don't even want the e-book thing, i "like" carrying a book with me, waiting in line with a book , the M.D. office...i like looking smart ! don't you?????
i'm going to go through my book case in the next week, take the old books out, make a list and put them on amazon.com to sell, might as well get some money back for them...once you read a book, you don't go back, and how many of us have saved books, or thrown them away????
it will be more for my and judy's "fun fund" which i now have $9.00 in !!! for a vacation or a concert...with her... we started it a week ago, $1.00/day in our fun fund... care to join us????
i will have my laptop back tomorrow, all reformatted, and then this computer will go to the shop of John...for reformatting...they are both old, more than 1 year old, and needed to be upgraded desperately... it was time, they have been lagging very slow for a while...
well, time to sign off and go upstairs and pet Winston, who's at the top of the stairs, just waiting for me...he's just a love !!!
Till next time, good day and good luck....

Hello there again !!!!
Sorry for my absence the past few days, seems as if my blogs have hurt some persons, won't name them, but will change how they are viewed in the future. Will not send them in email, "unless" you email me telling me to send them to "you" in particular.
i didn't mean the blogs to ever be hurtful, wanted to start doing this, just to go over what happened in "my" life, think about it as i write it, be sort of funny, cuz i do think everything in life is funny, I even see tragedy funny, after the physical, emotional pain is past, there "is" humor even in death, I think God made it his way, made us residual people, able to work through things, Butch Somsag's favorite quote was, "Mascal, after all, none of us is going to get out of this alive !" and that was soo, sooooo correct...Physical death is real, it's permanent, but....if you believe in life after, it's really not going to be so bad,("my" point of view), we will be there forever with whoever, just think, Elvis, Jim Morrison, Spanky from our gang, my dad, John Gacey, but all will be equal, beautiful, complete, pain free, flowers, good smells, i think frying chicken or bacon, mmmmm chocolate with NO calories,
enough, enough already, you get the darn point !!!! NOW, did that offend anyone??? let me know asap....and i won't go there again, lol
so, omg !!!!! i got my root canal finished, and i don't "remember" if i told you, yah, I "think" i did, so i won't go on, have too look back...brain, where have you gone??????
Had a great, great week end, Stan went to Iowa to see his daughter, soooo, Friday, rain=all day rain, so i took winston and drove to streator, and i cried "all" the way there, just had the blues, soooo blue, but...took my vacuum to streator, visited wonderful Virginia, and she made me soup and her george, oh, he is sooo nice...so we sat and chatted, then went to get my vacuum, and chatted two more hours in the car...worked my blues right away.
Saturday, i spent the afternoon with darrelle, my friend, who is going to Paris tomorrow, first time out of the country for her!!!!! hope she meets a "french man".....and has the time of her life..
and stayed at her house till 2 a.m., oak park, i "thought" it was like 9 p.m.
Sunday, to Streator again to meet my sister, Connie, just sat in chippers for hours, talking, laughing, crying, and, seeing so many people we both knew and hadn't seen for years, now connie is 10 years younger than i, but we "both" saw soo many people, took phone pictures of so many it was wonderful... then it was over to Justines for me to see my grandbabies, and have a wonderful penne pasta/spaghetti sauce, that "J" made, she can cook, i mean she's a "good" cook.
we talked and talked about my head, my right temporal lobe damage from the stroke and the car accident, and i stayed till about 8:30 p.m.
So, I had a good, good weekend, seeing so many people, loving so many and recieving so much love, aren't friends the best in the world to have????? Men may come and go, but friends, can't replace them.
Hey ! i got a "good" book.... "Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man" by Steve Harvey !!!!
and, it's just wonderful, i mean to the nitty gritty about how men feel about love, life, responsibilities, and then us, women, oh, man, WE ARE TRULLY DIFFERENT SPECIES...
i gave one to ginia, darrelle, lynn, will send one to justine and i "recommend" all of you get it, even if your a guy, wish i would have read this at 18, would not have made the mistake of marriage, nothing permanent, cuz men don't like "permanence".....
So, it's late, 11:45 p.m., stan has a terrible cold that he got home from iowa with, we even went to palos hospital to the emergency room, they tested him for H1N1, cuz his grandson got it in iowa, but alas, it's just a bad cold, but we had soup and he vixed up his chest and his feet, yes, you read that right, and it WORKS, vix your feet, wear sox to bed and man, relief...i dunno, but it works..and he plans tomorrow in bed all day too, nurses orders, lol
well, i'm sending this to those of you who have said, " i love your blogs, look forward to reading them" and the rest will have to click that link i sent to get here...unless i hear from each one i sent that link too, it's no more go....automatically anyway.
i have a book in my brain, i really do,

honest opinion, have my blogs "hurt" anyone?
good morning,
it's a sunny, beautiful day after yesterdays awful, dreary rainy day, such a difference and glad of it !!!
my tooth, "finally" went to the endodontist, he did the root canal, start to finish-pain free...and he was tall, cute and he sang the whole appointment with syrius radio, blend music, and he has a great voice. he sings the entire day, has a rock n roll band, plays guitar and had voice lessons. He's 50, and a nice, nice man and the music was just what i like, listen too, an unusual experience to say the least. all for only $1050.00 which the dental insurance will pay, so tooth got better, and entertainment to boot.. so, if your in the metro area, see Dr. Michael Mintz in chicago heights for a root canal, you'll be entertained !!!!
so, my friend, the one i cannot name, but we have been friends for years, is angry at me. Now I do admit, in the first blogs i did use her name for something, can't remember what, but she told me not too, and i haven't again. in fact, she did something unlike her, and told me to blog about it if i cared to, but it would have given her away and was actually illegal, but something fun at the same time, and i didn't do it. so, "if" ever, i have offended anyone that requested i send my blogs to them, I'm sorry, and just let me know. I asked another, long, long time male friend, about what i had done to provoke her, he answered me, and then he told her that I had asked him, and i never ever thought he would do such a thing, not ever, so that friendship has also been betrayed, so, i'm upset, sad, overwhelmed, but she has decided to end our 47 year relationship. 47 years, longer than most marriages, but i guess if one of us passed away it would end anyway, but we would have good thoughts and memories. so, enough on this !!!! but, please, email me and let me know "if" i've offended you, and also "if" you no longer want my writings. I will, try to get to light funny stuff again, now that the dead wood is gone from my life !
took winston to streator yesterday, got my vacuum cleaner overhauled, it wasn't broke, but it did need yearly maintenance, which i hadn't done for 7 years, amazing, it's been 7 years since in the shop, guess it was what they said, "the best vacuum cleaner going", it's a simplicity and i just love it..
3 weeks left until "S" day, ankle reconstruction surgery !!!! then what??? once i heal, oh, the shoe shopping i will do !!! normal shoes, after so many years of ugly shoes !!!! what one takes for granted with their feet, i will be so thankful...and walk much different/better, it's gonna be a great spring i think !!!!
my friend, D, is going to Paris on Monday !!!! first time out of USA ! good for her !!! hope she has just a splendid trip with her 2 sisters and has a lot of french cuisine to talk about.
my friend, V, helped me figure out what i'm going to do with my so called life....yes, medical transcription.....at a hospital or right at home, plenty of companies are looking for transcription people, and i know medical terminology, am a good typist and fast, so it will be right up my alley....thanks V ! your a godsend, and saved me from poverty....and i will enjoy it tooooooo
well, i'm wondering, what is new and different in your life??? i know you can't write here, but you could comment on this site, if you had the link, which i will email you along with the blog today, so you can make any comments you want...but, email me too and tell me what is new, your happiness, are you finished christmas shopping yet? Marcia, i know you are, cuz your efficient...,
so, can you do mine since i'll be down for the rest of the year. but, i have the bedroom all set up for post surgery, my laptop, my little dvd player, books, chocolate, pens, paper, i'm "trying" to think of everything i'll need for 6 of the longest weeks of my life, then the next 6 will be only toe touch, but at least i can be up. i figure by january, i'll be beginning therapy....
Oh, my old, past friend, Jim....his son Jimmie was interviewed for the web times, and my gosh, what an interview he gave, what a perspective on life, wonder where he got this wonderful outlook and view of life, I sure feel good about knowing him, too bad his father doesn't have the same...if you like, i will send it to you, i have it in my saved email...it's really good. the guy is only 39, but wisdom of an old philosopher....
well, it's only 11 a.m. on Saturday, but i am going to close and read a book, my sis in law told me about, and i bought it..."Act like a lady, think like a man", by Steve Harvey, he's a comedian, but this is not meant to be funny, will read the entire book today and figure men out....i've read parts, and like it, gave a copy to V, and sent a copy to my nameless friend, hope she accepts it as it's meant in love..and just for what it says...if she returns it, i will loan it out to any of you who would like to read it or you can get it at borders..
so, enough for today, let me know, again, if you want these or are just tired of them...i won't be offended or hurt....don't have heart left to get hurt !!!!

Oh, my goodness! i hit enter instead of tab on that one !!!
guess i was a little too exhuberant !!!!!!!!!!!!!
How the heck are you on this chilli day???? golly, snow out west already !! So early for it !!!!gonna be a long, long winter, but, I guess i'm gonna be warm being confined to home most of it, am now going to have my ankle fixed on October 30, at the University of Chicago, will only be in the hospital over night on Friday night, but, oh, a long, slow recovery with NO weight bearing for 6 full weeks, left foot elevated and in bed for most of that, only up to the bathroom and to the m.d. so, lots of company will be welcomed and lots of treats toooooooo....
my friend, Susan, is making me a list of "quircky" movies, like she and i enjoy, i'll have my laptop in bed with me so i can keep in touch with you, continue to blog, though i don't know about what...and pillows, a stack of clean jammies so stan won't have to dig and find them, my electric mattress cover on so i'm snuggly and warm, and when you come, you can bring cocktails.
after 6 weeks, "if" all goes well, then i can toe touch for the next 6 weeks, and then...we will see, then the physical therapy begins, but by April, I should be dancing my way around town and wearing cool shoes again !!! it's been a long time since I've had a pair of cool shoes, so i'm looking forward to it big time !!!
So, thats my news !!!! also, i got the papers to fill out for social security disability, so that's moving ahead, i hope, but do i want to go this way? i think i still want to work, but not any longer with sick people, cuz i'm sick of them!!!! sick of sicko's in work, life, love, and on t.v. too....
so, i did a hex on all of them, BE GONE SICKO'S !!!!!!!! only healthy people approach !!!!!! this woman !!!!
now, if that works for me, it also might work for you ! so, Winston has become a lap dog in recent days, he has discovered he likes it on my lap at 1 1/2 years old, he barks at me if i'm doing something and won't let him up, but, he's cuddly and furry and warm !!!!
and, he smells good tooooooo!!!!!!
I made delicious chocolate chip cookies yesterday and today, scrumptious stew, and froze two containers for my laid up time,will start fixing food to freeze so when i'm down we can eat !
Still have plans for a move in March or April, first i'm sure i'll be able to get around well, and Stan seems fine with that, we can't argue if i'm down and not doing well, i won't be in any frame of mind to disagree with him, so that will work. his ex is home from her psyche stay, and lauren is home with her, so things are back to normal, who knows what she's doing, but 90% rate of failure in opiate addiction, so i don't think thats good, but you know what, it's not my problem !!!!!! I don't care !!!!! and that's healthy for me !!!!!
Well, not a thing is going on in my life, no one is in love with me, and ya know, I think i like it this way.. i figure, i've been loved, well, they said it anyway and at times they showed it, like 4 times for certain, doubt if it was true, but i'm none worse for the wear from it, and i sort of like it just like this.. no man to fret, worry about, just me and winston and family , oh, any you guys....
but, it's okay....i "think" i just want a few sleep overs, but they must leave in the a.m., and before they stay the night, must present a certificate of health, as in no STD's....i don't want to do laundry, don't want to cook for a man any more, i've done it and it didn't matter, so, for the next 40 years or so, i'm off duty... i am going to enjoy my life like some of you already do, and the others, may want to join me, cuz it's just not worth the energy... men don't understand or think like us, and i just don't care any more...
with that note, i'm going to close for the night, on a positive note, at least i feel positive, do you?????? My friend, in Fl, she won't let me use her name, is not talking to me, i have not a clue why, she doesn't IM me anylonger, and got sort of upset when i sent her a home health note today, so, I guess we're taking a break too, and that's okay with me, it's just fine...cuz life is just to short to worry about it.
so, have a good week, and keep me posted in email if you need anything, i'm right here in Mokena...

Hello Friends !
It is certain, fall is upon us, it's kind of cold outside tonight and rainy, lightning and thundering,
it's been a dreary day, but winston is happy no matter what the weather, and he got a porterhouse bone tonight to chew on, made his day complete.
I had surgery on my left outer leg Wednesday to remove the melanoma area, doc says she got all the margins, sutured it right up, but told me to sort of stay off of it so it doesn't split open, if it does, it will take skin grafting andyou all know how beautiful my legs are, so i don't want another scar !
We hope Saturday is kind of nice, there is going to be over 100 fancy, fancy cars in Mokena for the Concourse d Elegance, and the food /wine festival, big flea market too, lots of people will be here.
So, have you seen Oprah ???? wearing that ugly orange dress in copenhagen, golly she is HUGE now !!!! bet she's been eating lots of carbohydrates, where did her health cooks go? did she fire them??? and what does she possibly have to do with the olympics???? actually, I feel Chicago needs to totally clean up their act, stop the daily violence, they don't need olympics, they need the army ! speaking of, did you see the article i wrote for the Ottawa/Streator paper and it was published, about the continuous reporting of bad things about Streator, I'm just sick of it...aren't you??
well, they arrested a 30 year old man for the multiple murder in beeson, il, he was married to one of the daughters, how sad and how sick he is !!!! to murder 5 people, by beating them to death, people are just sick these days,
Tomorrow Michael Moores newest movie starts, my friend, Darrelle and I will go see it sometime this week end, will prove interesting, i for one, enjoy Michael Moore, I know he's a movie maker, but he speaks the truth too.
i was in a dollar general yesterday, they now have Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas items/ decorations for sale, all at once....i think there should just be "holiday" stores, that carry items year around, all available all the time !!!!
ya know, on days i don't leave the house, nothing interesting happens for me to write about, when i stay home, the only person i see is crabby stan and happy winston, not much variety there, is there? do you have variety in your life??? i hope so, somedays I talk to Justine, and those are good days, she always makes me smile and once in a while Ryan is even yapping, he's so cute when he talks, always something new.
tomorrow i'm going to make some oatmeal cookies or chocolate chip, i don't know, but if you come see me, we'll have milk and cookies for breakfast, lunch and dinner....isn't that enticing???
I haven't mentioned Jim any more, he's gone, out of the picture, was thrilled to see me, for about 2 weeks, that didn't last long, he's a sick man, mentally, physically, basically just a man, but, I did feel good about meeting him after all these years, maybe in the next life, oh well, his loss.. I have so much to give, offer, do for the right man, but where is he? i do not want to live with another man, ever, but would like one just to hang out with now and then, have sex with now and then...but, no more overnighters with any man again, it's just not worth it, an make up is a pain in the butt to wear every day..
well, another thurday gone, the week end looms, and time for bed, i'm tired and didn't accomplish a thing today, how was your day?
Goodnight, sweet dreams !!!
it's been a dreary day, but winston is happy no matter what the weather, and he got a porterhouse bone tonight to chew on, made his day complete.
I had surgery on my left outer leg Wednesday to remove the melanoma area, doc says she got all the margins, sutured it right up, but told me to sort of stay off of it so it doesn't split open, if it does, it will take skin grafting andyou all know how beautiful my legs are, so i don't want another scar !
We hope Saturday is kind of nice, there is going to be over 100 fancy, fancy cars in Mokena for the Concourse d Elegance, and the food /wine festival, big flea market too, lots of people will be here.
So, have you seen Oprah ???? wearing that ugly orange dress in copenhagen, golly she is HUGE now !!!! bet she's been eating lots of carbohydrates, where did her health cooks go? did she fire them??? and what does she possibly have to do with the olympics???? actually, I feel Chicago needs to totally clean up their act, stop the daily violence, they don't need olympics, they need the army ! speaking of, did you see the article i wrote for the Ottawa/Streator paper and it was published, about the continuous reporting of bad things about Streator, I'm just sick of it...aren't you??
well, they arrested a 30 year old man for the multiple murder in beeson, il, he was married to one of the daughters, how sad and how sick he is !!!! to murder 5 people, by beating them to death, people are just sick these days,
Tomorrow Michael Moores newest movie starts, my friend, Darrelle and I will go see it sometime this week end, will prove interesting, i for one, enjoy Michael Moore, I know he's a movie maker, but he speaks the truth too.
i was in a dollar general yesterday, they now have Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas items/ decorations for sale, all at once....i think there should just be "holiday" stores, that carry items year around, all available all the time !!!!
ya know, on days i don't leave the house, nothing interesting happens for me to write about, when i stay home, the only person i see is crabby stan and happy winston, not much variety there, is there? do you have variety in your life??? i hope so, somedays I talk to Justine, and those are good days, she always makes me smile and once in a while Ryan is even yapping, he's so cute when he talks, always something new.
tomorrow i'm going to make some oatmeal cookies or chocolate chip, i don't know, but if you come see me, we'll have milk and cookies for breakfast, lunch and dinner....isn't that enticing???
I haven't mentioned Jim any more, he's gone, out of the picture, was thrilled to see me, for about 2 weeks, that didn't last long, he's a sick man, mentally, physically, basically just a man, but, I did feel good about meeting him after all these years, maybe in the next life, oh well, his loss.. I have so much to give, offer, do for the right man, but where is he? i do not want to live with another man, ever, but would like one just to hang out with now and then, have sex with now and then...but, no more overnighters with any man again, it's just not worth it, an make up is a pain in the butt to wear every day..
well, another thurday gone, the week end looms, and time for bed, i'm tired and didn't accomplish a thing today, how was your day?
Goodnight, sweet dreams !!!

windy day? do you feel it tooo???
Happy Monday night !!!!!!
where did today go? Seems like i just got up, and it's almost time for bed !!! made "hamburger Stroganoff" tonight, and it was "good", first time i used ground beef instead of sirloin steak for it, and it was yummy, accompanied by Nooldes Romanoff, mmmmm noodles with butter and garlic, parmesan cheese mixed in blended with wide egg noodles, a real treat, and today i felt like making a Coconut Meringue Pie too, and the meringue was high and fluffy and goooood.
Today the dermatologist called, i faxed her a note early a.m., but it was her first day back from vacation, and i thought it would be a few days till i heard from her, but she was a nurse before she is a doctor, so she's great, common and ordinary and really pretty too.. she said, "you need to have this surgery as soon as possible and wednesday is open at 11 a.m., to have a "MOHS procdure" and a female, a Dr. Pepitone is going to do it, gail doesn't have any opening and she doesn't do the MOHS, its going to take up to 5 hours, because they are going to cut the spot thinly, stain it, take it to pathology and check for the margins, will continue until they see no cancerous lesions and have clean margins, so it will be a neat, slow process, said to bring a book, and they have a t.v. and dvd player, so i have a couple of movies i'm taking too. Sutures must be in for 2 full weeks, for some reason, so tomorrow i will call Tanya at Dr. Toolens and schedule the ankle surgery i guess by Oct 30, and will plan to be up and around and out dancing by April, thats the plan, giving me plenty of time to recuperate fully and get new spring shoes !!!!!
We haven't heard a word from Amanda, know she checked herself into the pyschiatric ward at Palos Hospital, no news is good news, but I think Lauren is wondering and just won't ask anything at all. I know this is hard on her, and she is being brave, but seems sad at the same time. the picture on top is her and winston last year when we brought him home, lauren is 12 now, but still looks the same, only taller.
Not much else to write about tonight, it was overall a non eventful day, things are quiet around here, haven't even argued with stan for quite a few days, he's overwhelmed and i'm being quiet, i know you shocked, but it's the truth by golly !!! when i cook, i'm happy and keep to myself !!!
well, i need to write a letter, and play on facebook for a bit, lots of friends have contacted me and i'm happy about that !! i love people, i love life !!!!!!!

Where did 3 days go?????
well, it went, didn't it !!!!! and goodness, time does fly right past and I seem to waste so much of it, i'm not being productive right now at all, seem to be in limbo or at some type of standstill, just spending time waiting, and i'm not sure what i'm waiting for. my ankle, my melanoma surgery, Amanda (stan's ex) to get her shit together and clean her act up, Stan to chill and be nice again, i know he has pressure, with ginger dying slowly, lauren being totally neglected by her mother, and his deciding he doesn't like me(women) any longer, the outcome of the FBI investigation of that shitty place i worked for a year, Maxim, who has defrauded the state, federal and veterans out of loads of money, the entire company, all 500 offices, whether i can work as a nurse any longer, or if i resort to what every woman has to offer for money....$$$$$ need i be clearer about that? but, i'm old now, and would only get money for housecleaning or something ! a service, that is..
Wow ! a tornado warning is crossing the screen, kind of weird, isn't that? oh, well !
Today, my friend, Darrelle and I went to the Forrest Park art fair and had lunch at Francesca's, and had a nice, relaxing day, she has become a good friend and is easy to talk to, she's heading to Paris in two weeks with her sisters, yeah for her ! Wish i were going tooo, but, maybe in the next 5 years or so !!!!
So, news regarding my tooth, still have one more nerve to remove, the regular dentist has tried 4 times, after many, many Novocaine shots he referred me to an endodontist and they want a $300.00 deposit before i see him, which i don't have, my insurance "will" pay but they don't care, so for now i'm stuck with a perpetual toothache or getting my top molar pulled, which neither nor my dentist wants to happen, so what to do??? i just don't have the money, unemployment is just enough to pay my share of the house bills, nothing extra, and this tooth is just killing me...but, can't have a benefit for a tooth, or can I ?
Went to Christophers school Friday a.m. for grandparent day, had a continental breakfast and went to class with chris for a bit, he had questions he needed to ask his gramma and we drew pictures of ourselves, and it was fun, he is so good in school and he was happy to have his gramma there with him, and gramma was glad too. then it was lunch with my friend Virginia, we call her vagina, for short, and she is always fun to see, chippers so i ran into many old friends, even frannie Cherveney, which i just got a video from paul studnicki on thursday with kids in 1965 ice skating at marilla park, and frannie was in it, so i emailed it to her and made her day complete !
so, what are you looking forward to for this week? the weather is taking a certain turn cooler, just in time for autumn, remember when we actually wore fall clothes, wool skirts and sweaters? they were really pretty in all those rust, brown, blue and green colors, wish they would come back in style again, don't you??? The leaves will start to fall soon, leaf burning smells will be in the air, there will be fireplaces lit in the evening, all nice things, and....pumpkin pies, pumpkin ice cream, pumpkin muffins and cake...mmmmmm can you tell pumpkin is my favorite of all, and we only think of it in the fall, don't we?
Fall shows have started, Curb your Enthusiasm is back on HBO, which i just love, and brothers and sisters on abc, also another one i like, it's a soap opera, but still i like it, don't you? what are your favorites to watch? and soon it will be time to start Christmas shopping, again, no $$$$, as usual, but, i am tole painting again, and gonna do the sleds kathy meredith gave me to do some years ago, finally will do them, have ideas and washed them in murphy's oil soap and will begin tomorrow to make them gorgeous for winter display!!!! they were kathy's and her sisters sleds in childhood, so, it will be great fun and she will appreciate them finally !!!
well, it's almost time for bed, another night of dreaming of having great sex with someone, but i can't ever see who he is, but he's tall and muscular and hot for me....that's what counts, i don't care who he is but i like him !!!! he doesn't stay to have coffee in the a.m., and i don't have to wash his clothes, my idea of the perfect lover !
so, Goodnight for Sunday night, i'll talk to you all sooon !!!
Winston's mom !!!!! he's still here and just loves me to death, and i love him tooo.

golly, it's another week that's almost gone
Hello all !!!
"another" strain of flu is approaching, just tonight, channel 11 reports still there is yet another flu approaching us, and I'm wondering why this is happening, too much travel, and, dr gerber from the public health dept says "all flu vaccine is given free to "all" flu clinics and was "meant" to be administered for free, but individual companies, clinics, may charge an "administrative" fee to give it, figure that one !!!!!
so, my tooth, still my tooth, i had 2 root canals and the doc just can't deaden the third nerve of the trunk after weeks of shots, lots of shots...so, it's to an endodontist i'm being sent !!!
more news ! my dreaded melanoma has returned, this time on my outer left leg, had a biopsy and it was positive, so now further sugery to remove the spot, the margins, and also check the lymph nodes nearest, which are my left groin, so...ankle surgery must be delayed, until this is completed and i've healed, suppose to see the ortho m.d.on the 28th, melanoma surgery is scheduled for Oct 26, unless my regular derm can work me in sooner, won't know that till she gets back from vacation also on the 28th, so, it's "all" up in the air tonight !!!!!
just call me, Ms Adaptable !!! i'll go with the flow on this one, i think !!
Made chop suey for supper tonight, and Lauen wanted to know why it's called that, and i must confess, i've been making it for years, and i don't have a clue why its called that...what is suey???? According to Wikipedia, my favorite this is what they say: " mixed" pieces of any type of meat, bound in a starch thickend gravy, popular in American, Canadian and Indian cuisine, as in India...not the american indian...
and, we really enjoyed it, Lauren had never had it before,I think her mother isn't big on cooking from scratch, just in pre cooked and take out foods, so she enjoys it when she's here, though she is 12 and is reluctant to admit it...
Are you enjoying the fall season on T.V.? it's started and mostly the same old stuff, lots of dr. shows, cop shows, but letterman has had 2 presidents on this week, andboth have been very good, and i've sure taken to the Bonnie Hunt show, in fact, joined her website and record her show andwatch itquicker each day...she's a former oncology nurse, from chicago, and really down to earth, i think...
have you missed me this week? i've missed you, but some days just aren't interesting enough to write....now, for money, i'll entertain, but, gosh mostly my life is boring, boring, boring, and i'm pretty broke, but now, tomorrow, Friday, i'm going to Wallace school for grandparent day and breakfast with Christopher and then to his class room for a while, then i'm meeting my friend, Virginia for lunch, which will be just great !!!! then, the week end looms, and I have not a plan in site,not yet anyway, would like to see a movie or two, but who knows??????
for tonight, though, its time to say good night, and God Speed to all !!!!! My friend, Lynn, has decided to limit her computer time, feels it's taken over her life, as for me, i do keep it in balance, don't spend as much time as i use to on it, and so i enjoy it....oh, and my friend, Sherry, not me, another Sherry that you don't
know, lives in Indiana, sent me a copy of her book, she wrote it, "Angel With Redbird Wings" and it is wonderful and i thank her very much for writing and sharing it with me....She is also a nurse, and a very loving, outgoing woman, very strong in her convictions, which all of my friends are, i'm proud of that !!!
So, good night for now, will write again in 2 days, count em !!!!

Happy Monday to you all !!!!
what a great day today has been, very relaxing, didn't drive any place, winston and i just hugged the day away !!
well, as for stan's ex, she was in terrible condition, but, they transferred her out of ICU tonight and then when she got to the floor, they immediately released her from the hospital too, I guess her insurance wouldn't pay for an overdose, so that's the way the mop flops, she's now out and free to use more medication again, no counseling, but, she's so smart, she doesn't need it !!!!
Enough said about her, not my concern !
The only thing is, now I have to decide should i have ankle surgery next week or not, put it off, Stan will have his hands full with Lauren I imagine, but, if i "could" go to a rehab floor I could do this, it's in the air right now but i sure can't/won't depend on Stan any longer, he has a lot on his plate now, and we all know, men can't handle too many things, so i'll just figure it out.
The air is beginning to change, fall is in the air, and it's just beautiful, it's just the best time of year, so, I am really going to try to pack some of the things for storage and begin to "think" about my future, i'm sure in the mood to get it over, just begin again, new lease on life, the final phase.
I "think" I want to take a class or two, and relearn the things about government, literature and some other things that I've forgotten over the years, even some geography, as some of the names of the countries have changed. In the next year, I also want to look for some "reasonable" air fares or just drive to see people I haven't seen for a long time, I think I need to do that before it's later than it is now !!! and while I still remember people !!
so, what the heck am i gonna do for the rest of my life??? any suggestions? now, you also know, that I can go anyplace on earth to live, so i wonder if Ottawa will be the best place for me or the best i can do????? what do you think????
will you watch barack on the david letterman show tonight??? i think it's just a riot, i'm still wondering if Barack is giving the real deal about health care, but, i still like him and think he's a very decent man !!! I think the best president of my life, actually and i will have surgery right in his neighborhood !!!
well, i joined eons.com a website for baby boomers and its really nice, simple, lots of interesting blogs, check it out.. i also joined bonniehunt.com i really like her, she's down to earth, was an oncology nurse at northwestern memorial and still comes to chicago several times a year, her parents still live there.
Snow !!! in the colorado mountains already !!!!! we just had snow, rain, no summer at all !!! kind of depressing, huh???? i haven't planted my flowers yet for the summer, oh, well, i saved tons of money, so there !!!!
well, time to watch letterman, then time to go to bed, will read a bit of my book first...do you read nightly? i do, it's enjoyable and my mind is on something other than the terrible news i saw at 10 p.m., good night to you, and again good luck....

Sunday night, Sept 20, 2009
Hello Friends !!!!!
I'm back !!!! left off Wednesday night, you know the FBI was here Thursday, long, long story, but long and short of it, Maxim Healthcare, the entire company, 500+ offices throughout USA, is being investigated for fraud, medicare, medicaid, veterans, and they are talking and asking questions of a great many people who were employed in executive positions, it was a scarey experience to say the least, when they left, I had a full on panic attack, the first i've ever had, couldn't move, couldn't speak, left hand and wrist contracted big time, but was over within 15 minutes and back to normal.
Friday, was fairly calm, actually, i don't remember Friday, so i think it was inconsequential but Saturday I went to Streator an went to Faye Murphys house and saw all the family after Faye's funeral, she was really loved by her family. Then, went to Sandy and John Defenbaughs house and spent the evening talking with the girls, solving lifes problems/dilemna's, all to no avail.
today was fairly uneventful until Lauren called, couldn't wake her mother up, went to the neighbors for help, long and short, she overdosed on prescription pain medication, which she's been addicted to for many years, Stan has been aware of this but he is helpless to help her, as no one can help an "addicted" person, but in the past year especially, she has spent most of her waking hours in her room, taking pills, sleeping, and leaving Lauren on her own, to make her own meals, wash her own clothes, has never gotten up with lauren in the a.m. for school, doesn't make sure lauren eats breakfast or even has a lunch.. it just sucks, and tonight I did call DCFS because I am a "mandatory" reporter and there is finally "proof ", no longer speculation, but facts to back our suspicions so Stan can now file for full custody of Lauren and take her away from her mother, in order to work with lauren to straighten her life out.. I had no choice but to report, as i would be liable if this happened again, and in my opinion Lauren has been neglected enough for a lifetime. Sad, sad case, a clinical psychologist in degree with not an ounce of sense, she doesn't have a friend, doesn't have a person who cares about her, in fact, she just took Lauren to the U2 concert, which lauren hated going to, and jimmy buffett many times, nothing but a drug fest for either....sad, sad, sad, but she has done this all to herself, and stan is well rid of her.
Enough about this, but she did completely wreck our suppertime, how rude Amanda is, with this behavior and mental illness, death would be better than having her impact Lauren any longer...
oh, Stan also laid this on me yesterday, he is going to iowa on the 9th of october, only 1 week after my ankle reconstruction, so I have to find someone to come stay for 4 days, and ensure i eat, brush my teeth, potty, and take winston out...he didn't tell me this prior to my scheduling my surgery on the 2nd, and if i can't get a person to come, i must reschedule it again, they are going to think i'm crazy....but, it sucks....all because his 9 year old grandson plays football, which it may be rainy, or the kid may be sick or hurt, he could wait until next year or have went anytime until now, see, just another thing that women can't depend on men for, he has encouraged this surgery for 6 long years, I have finally planned it, it will allow me to walk normally for the first time, since i was 17, and this news....the boy has many years to play football, i don't see it as a big thing, but i don't understand why people get into watching kids do rough things to their bodies anyway... christopher is no more interested in football, but is great at academics, which is more important anyway...and that's what we like.. even Stan gets disgusted at the sports, the high wages people get for abusing themselves and can't even read or count..but, that another story....play football and get dogs to kill one another in dog fights, the american way, speaking of, we don't think that guy should ever get paid to play football again, he should run animal shelters for life..
well, i need to get back in the spirit of life, am really looking forward to getting my ankle fixed, healed, and moving on with life, eager to get my own place, decorate it the way i want, winston, furbie, binky and I, another chapter in my life, which i really love my life, love looking forward to retirement, and spending time with my family and friends and doing some traveling...
only kids in my life will be christopher, ryan and all of your grandkids, which are like my own, most of you anyway..
have a wonderful week, winston says hello !!! he's right here watching t.v. with me, sort of amazing, but i think he really understands the shows...he sure watches......
I am still Winstons mom
I'm back !!!! left off Wednesday night, you know the FBI was here Thursday, long, long story, but long and short of it, Maxim Healthcare, the entire company, 500+ offices throughout USA, is being investigated for fraud, medicare, medicaid, veterans, and they are talking and asking questions of a great many people who were employed in executive positions, it was a scarey experience to say the least, when they left, I had a full on panic attack, the first i've ever had, couldn't move, couldn't speak, left hand and wrist contracted big time, but was over within 15 minutes and back to normal.
Friday, was fairly calm, actually, i don't remember Friday, so i think it was inconsequential but Saturday I went to Streator an went to Faye Murphys house and saw all the family after Faye's funeral, she was really loved by her family. Then, went to Sandy and John Defenbaughs house and spent the evening talking with the girls, solving lifes problems/dilemna's, all to no avail.
today was fairly uneventful until Lauren called, couldn't wake her mother up, went to the neighbors for help, long and short, she overdosed on prescription pain medication, which she's been addicted to for many years, Stan has been aware of this but he is helpless to help her, as no one can help an "addicted" person, but in the past year especially, she has spent most of her waking hours in her room, taking pills, sleeping, and leaving Lauren on her own, to make her own meals, wash her own clothes, has never gotten up with lauren in the a.m. for school, doesn't make sure lauren eats breakfast or even has a lunch.. it just sucks, and tonight I did call DCFS because I am a "mandatory" reporter and there is finally "proof ", no longer speculation, but facts to back our suspicions so Stan can now file for full custody of Lauren and take her away from her mother, in order to work with lauren to straighten her life out.. I had no choice but to report, as i would be liable if this happened again, and in my opinion Lauren has been neglected enough for a lifetime. Sad, sad case, a clinical psychologist in degree with not an ounce of sense, she doesn't have a friend, doesn't have a person who cares about her, in fact, she just took Lauren to the U2 concert, which lauren hated going to, and jimmy buffett many times, nothing but a drug fest for either....sad, sad, sad, but she has done this all to herself, and stan is well rid of her.
Enough about this, but she did completely wreck our suppertime, how rude Amanda is, with this behavior and mental illness, death would be better than having her impact Lauren any longer...
oh, Stan also laid this on me yesterday, he is going to iowa on the 9th of october, only 1 week after my ankle reconstruction, so I have to find someone to come stay for 4 days, and ensure i eat, brush my teeth, potty, and take winston out...he didn't tell me this prior to my scheduling my surgery on the 2nd, and if i can't get a person to come, i must reschedule it again, they are going to think i'm crazy....but, it sucks....all because his 9 year old grandson plays football, which it may be rainy, or the kid may be sick or hurt, he could wait until next year or have went anytime until now, see, just another thing that women can't depend on men for, he has encouraged this surgery for 6 long years, I have finally planned it, it will allow me to walk normally for the first time, since i was 17, and this news....the boy has many years to play football, i don't see it as a big thing, but i don't understand why people get into watching kids do rough things to their bodies anyway... christopher is no more interested in football, but is great at academics, which is more important anyway...and that's what we like.. even Stan gets disgusted at the sports, the high wages people get for abusing themselves and can't even read or count..but, that another story....play football and get dogs to kill one another in dog fights, the american way, speaking of, we don't think that guy should ever get paid to play football again, he should run animal shelters for life..
well, i need to get back in the spirit of life, am really looking forward to getting my ankle fixed, healed, and moving on with life, eager to get my own place, decorate it the way i want, winston, furbie, binky and I, another chapter in my life, which i really love my life, love looking forward to retirement, and spending time with my family and friends and doing some traveling...
only kids in my life will be christopher, ryan and all of your grandkids, which are like my own, most of you anyway..
have a wonderful week, winston says hello !!! he's right here watching t.v. with me, sort of amazing, but i think he really understands the shows...he sure watches......

Alert! i "think" i'm unsubscribing from Facebook
i think it's for kids, it's just too busy for me with absolutely no directions for anything anyone sends and i can't figure it out, i think it sucks, and takes too much time, i just wanted a place i could find and reconnect with people, it's gotten way out of the box for me...so, email me, write me notes, ease up on the jokes some, i don't have time to read all of them and delete most...if i can't read it in a minute or visually see it, it's gone...and when i have surgery, i definetely won't have the ability to read all this, so notes please, keep it personal, please..
Well, today, the dentist, got 2 root canals, and after 15, yes, 15 shots of novocaine/adrenalin, my heart was going so fast i truly thought it was going to stop, didn't even know novocaine had adrenalin in it, and it was way, way too much for me..so, he won't use that type ever again, but one more to go, next Wednesday as it is still to hot to touch, even after all the shots, it wasn't numb...man, i said, "just pull the fucker out", but it's a molar, and he wouldn't..did you know the molar has "3" nerves???? shit the bed, fred !!!!! I'm just sick of driving east on I 80, kedzie exist south to homewood, to that dentist office, now mind you, he's nice, everyone is nice there, but i hate it...that drilling, shit.
But, then I got home, went to the Creamery and got a real chocolate milkshake, it hit the spot, my reward after torture... and then...Stan nicely, fixed cheeseburgers on the little charcoal grill and i ate the first mushroom/cheeseburger I've eaten in 4 years, with a grilled garlic/butter hamburger bun....i can't usually eat a bun, too doughy, but i did tonight, and it was like dying and going to heaven for me, a nice, juicy tomato slice, you know, Illinois tomatoes from the black soil, mmmmmmmm, not any other like it...so, i'm totally satisfied tonight. Stan fixed them just perfect, not too well done, not too rare, perfecto mundo....wish you were here to enjoy it with me...and i didn't even share with Winston, he's on a dog food strike right now, but, i know, if he gets hungry, he will eat the dog food..He's is watching Criminal Minds right now, just intently, he watches t.v. an awful lot, and i swear, he understands it, too bad he couldn't watch the film , "the matrix" and explain it to me, 3 times i've seen it, still don't get it !!!!!! I think he has a crush on the blonde, Garcia !!!!
what else? had my CBC and CMP drawn today for surgery, will have my ekg next week and then I'm ready, i'm so excited, i just can't tell you, i so much want this to work, for my foot to be normal again, well again, to buy normal shoes again, to walk again, please Lord, let it just be !!!
I subscibed to Eons.com today, a site just made for boomers, and i joined the old hippies group and i "think" i will start blogging there, i'm not sure yet, will let you know...but,it seems more appropriate, i subscribed to two bloggers sites, both women who feel much like I do about a lot of issues, been going to it over a year but just joined today, sent my friend, Darrelle and Lynn an invitation, if you want one tell me, or go to the sight and join, think you'll find it interesting..
In the last few nights, i "tried" to age 60+ chatrooms on yahoo, shoot, just a bunch of bots sending you sex messages to pay for their videos and such, just another bunch of shit....so, i won't do that again, sometimes, late at night, i just would like to enter into an intelligent chat with other adults, not about sex, not about enlarge your penises....but real chat..where are they??? i know, they "must" exist, but where????? don't you get sick of the junk mail, the advertisements you get, that's why i keep one email address just for friends,never, ever give it when i buy anything, nothing....so, please, if you "get" this blog, use only sherrymascal@yahoo.com it's reserved for friends "only". i would like to get away from using any other addresses for friends, and use only that one....then i wouldn't even go to the others anymore and they would fade away...
While i'm on a roll here, how do you like the way yahoo changed, overnight, every time i "try" to send an email, i have to write in some stupid code i can't even read, and constantly a yellow box comes up saying "you've encountered a problem at yahoo, return and try again in a few minutes", and there is no way to "write" to yahoo, and complain, and the address book sucks now...some people have more than one email address and one has to click on each to figure out what is the one they want to send it to....
I think i'm kind of grouchy tonight, i think the novocaine got the best of me today, i still love all of you, in fact, my friend, Jerry, from grade school just wrote on facebook that he LOVES me, now how about that? haven't seen him for 43 years and he still loves me, what a man !!!! think he wants to marry me? NOT !!!!!!
i'll write tomorrow night, maybe i'll even be in a better mood then....maybe i'll have vodka tomorrow night instead of novocaine...but, i still thank Stan for that wonderful Cheeseburger, it is the highlight of the month... sex maybe???????? one can only hope !!!!!!
good night and good luck !!!

It's tuesday night, do you know where your children are??????
i wanted to "introduce" you all to Winston, see, he's real, and he's my newest/bestest boyfriend, he's faithful, loyal, obedient, is affectionate (when i need affection), isn't a bedhog and doesn't snore.
I take him everywhere with me, and he travels well, and he's not a barker, he's a lover, wags his tail at everyone and accepts love from anyone who will offer it, but he's not a male whore.....
so, it's tuesday, the 15th, got word from Dr. Toolen that my surgery is not set for October 2, only in the hospital over night, and see the doc 2 weeks later to get sutures out and cast changed. i must behave, however, follow M.D. orders to the letter, and i will , this time i will, cuz i've wanted/needed this ankle/foot fixed for over 43 years, it's really gotten worse the last 6, now i can't wear a dress shoe anymore, and after this surgery/healing time, i can again.....
so, that's the news here in Mokena, i'm really excited to actually be "doing" this, not thinking about it anymore, i was worried how i'd get around in the nursing home, would they just keep me in a wheel chair all the time? cuz i'd throw myself out and on the floor and pee all over the floor...
This Saturday, my friend, Sandy, is having us girls over for the evening, wish you could all be there, but some of you live a little far for that!!! but, we do have fun when we get together, man bashing, eating, more man bashing, more eating, once we made a cake at 2 a.m., had a taste for it, we're still having sleep overs at heart, and she and her sister, june, have been my friends since we were really little, there's is the first house i played at. And michele, has been my friend since first day of kindergarten, we walked home from school all thru St Mary's days...but she always got to be the teacher when we played school, well it was her house and her stuff, she never ever came over to my house....and we followed greg nycz home every day, we had a crush on him he didn't know we were alive, we were just little kids to him i bet !!! pesty little girls...
So, you know patrick Swayze died last night, i just watched the second barbara walters special with he and his wife, what a pair, what a cutie he was and sooo brave...i will miss him, have seen all his movies numerous times...and will again, he had a great ass !!!! whew, whew !!!!
and he said, something i always say, "we are all terminal, some of just know how long we will be here"....i try to live that way every day, try to remember to be kind to everyone, though sometimes the devil in me gets carried away, and i can be a real bitch....don't like myself then though and wish i could take it right back, but, alas, i can't...which brings me to stan, and him not liking me anymore, i wish he did, but i can't change what i can't change...it's his loss though he doesn't feel that way now, i do think he will miss me and be sorry once i'm gone....it's been a nice 6 years for me, and i just wonder how he sees it so differently...if we are in the same space at the same time and who is missing what??? i don't think i'm missing anything, he's not the easiest person to live with either, but i overlook his tantrums and moodiness, why can't he get past mine and take the good with the bad? enough on that though....
so, how are you doing?? i don't ask about you when i write this, and i am actually writing it for myself but with you in mind too, i think the things you think, but i say em....a little to blunt for some people, but for you strong at heart, it's just fine and you write me that it's fine and you like it....so, i can take all the praise i get every day, it helps my self esteem!!!!!!
I don't have much else to write about tonight, it's the dentist again tomorrow to try to fix this dang tooth, he couldn't numb it the last two times, so tomorrow is his last try, after that, it's the endodontist for me, and lots more $$$$$$$$.$$
I also have a CBC due tomorrow and a CMP, and hope my hct and hgb are going back toward normal, otherwise, it's a transfusion for me, before surgery !!!!
On Saturday, it's a haircut in a.m., Harvest Days in Dwight after that, and then off to Sandy's house.....busy, fun day....i'm gonna let my hair grow back to the silver it is, and let it grow now, i want it blunt cut....and a little longer....what do you think????
Well, Goodnight friends, where ever you are !!! Say a prayer for me, just on principle, cuz i may yet kill that Jim R, from Ottawa, i just may do it !!! he didn't even tell me why???
What a chicken shit he is !!!!!!!!

End of the week end
and it's been such a beautiful week end too, such pretty days, warm and sunny, and at night cooler and crisp, and the smells, oh, the smells are so delicious ! I didn't do a thing on Saturday, got up, showered, had coffee and winston and i went back to bed for the morning, and just listened to music and cuddled, and he's such a good cuddler too !
Then, in the afternoon, I read a bit of the book I'm reading, Metro Girl by Janet Evanovich, it's funny and just the right amount of sexuality, she's a funny author, writes about what I would write, check her out sometime, used books at amazon.com are great, then there's the library too...i get books from both, actually, just got the book by Tom Brokaw, called "BOOM" and it's another yet look at the decade of the 60's, which are referred to as the "scizophrenic decade" beginning with the innocence of "leave it to beaver" and "lassie", then the deaths of the Kennedy's and Martin Luther King, the introduction of the hula hoop, drive in movies, then the war, protests, killing of the student's at Kent State, our own cops killed our own students, for just being together and a car back fired, and they shot these kids...to pot, psychodelic episodes, just a huge change in the times in those short 10 years, and we lived through it and were not that aware living in a small town, starting families, we were so innocent yet back then, but, the world was spinning, we understand a lot better now what that war was about, Money, Money, Money !!!!
whew, where did that come from???? i dunno !!!! back to the week end in review for now....
Saturday night was sort of boring, actually, now with stan it's gotten very boring, he doesn't want to do anything any more, just fall asleep in his chair with his mouth open and snore so i can't hear t.v. lol
so, saturday, i had the satellite connection moved from Laurens room to the room i'm in now, in anticipation for the surgery, but just for now so i have a place of my own to go, Stan never wanted the t.v. in the bedroom, he's bothered by a little night light...so, now in my own room, i play my own radio, listen to my own t.v., and snore myself to sleep in peace and i just love it...
I had forgotten how nice it is to just sleep by yourself and not hear another person, not feel them move around, go to the potty during the night, or hear them get up before your ready to, so, i'm happy !!!!
Today, Winston and I went for a long ride, he loves to go bye bye with his mommy, then home to read, and i fixed the coolest meatloaf this p.m., I made the mixture as always, onion, egg, garlic, bread crumbs and salt/pepper, tomato sauce, but, this time, i made muffin pan size balls, baked at 350 for 40 minutes, then made a glaze out of tomato sauce, worshteshire sauce and guldens mustard, mixed it all together, and painted it on the balls, and let it stay in the oven for about 10 more minutes, and it was just yummy, little individual meatloafs, from 2.3 # of ground round, i got 24 balls, baked 12 and put the other 12 on a cookie sheet in the freezer to freeze, now put them in a bowl for next time. will thaw them in the fridge for a day and then bake them, so the work is done for the next time already...
Sandy called tonight, and the girls get together is at her house, next Saturday night in the country south of streator, call her for directions, you have her number if your local and invited, or if you want to go, call me and i'll give you her phone number...it's gonna be a lot of fun, and we will celebrate my upcoming surgery and impending split from stan, a fun night, and i "plan" to spend the night in Streator, so spend it with me !!
I also have changed my mind about the surgery, not to cancel it, but move it up, will call the doc tomorrow and let them know, i'm ready whenever they are, i was gonna wait till the end of october, but i want it sooner, i want to begin healing asap, and get on wih life, my foot has slowed me down and stopped me for years from doing things, and my friend, Darrelle and I decided Friday night, we are going to Europe, i've wanted to return since Justine and I left, and when my foot/ankle is fixed, i can do just that....why wait? till we "save" the money, that will never happen, so, we both figure we will just charge it, and if we die before we pay it off, who cares????? in fact, my new theory is just this: if you want something, or want to do something, do it for yourself, not for anyone else, you don't "need" someone to go along with you, your memory of it is just that, "your" own memory, life is so short...i'm changing the way i look at things from now on, a more positive outlook, and I'm doing what "I" want to do, other than breaking the law, and I don't want to break any laws, but, no one can get blood out of a turnip and i don't have a thing, oh, furniture and a dog, but, no property, and i probably won't have any, no savings, and i won't have any, will live from check to check for the rest of my days, as most americans do, and if i can't take care of myself, the damn government will just have to, i've paid my dues, haven't you????? just be smart and protect what you do have from the IRS or anyone else, for your kids sakes, and screw it and have fun !!!!!
so, back to my ankle, i'm getting it fixed as soon as the doc has an open slot, i'll let you know next blog when that will be, so, cross of October 30 for the flowers and chocolates, it will be sooner...
Well, i don't have anything more interesting to write tonight, but next few days are promising to be busy at least....doc appt on Tuesday, lab and dentist on Thurs, Harvest Days on Saturday daytime and sandy's that night, with good friends, I hope, or not...at least Sandy, June and I will be there, and we always have fun bashing men!!! If your not there, we will bash you toooo, so best be there !!!!
I find i'm really ansty to get packing and get moved, to just decorate a place of my own, my own tastes, arrangements, no criticism, the music i like, and just winston and i, it's gonna be nice, where ever i end up...you will be able to call 24 hours a day then, no 10:15 cut off, i answer 24 hours a day and like to get up and go out for coffee at 1 a.m. and such !! FREEDOM !!
No curfew, no rules, restrictions, and no make up on days i don't want to put it on....
I think your pretty lucky to know me, cuz, if i send this to you, i would do anything for you, anytime, all you need do is ask, and the door is always open to you....
you have a terrific week, this week and look for me again soon, i haven't recieved any letter from you for a while, and i'd sure like one...
Sherry and Winston

so, back to my ankle, i'm getting it fixed as soon as the doc has an open slot, i'll let you know next blog when that will be, so, cross of October 30 for the flowers and chocolates, it will be sooner...
Well, i don't have anything more interesting to write tonight, but next few days are promising to be busy at least....doc appt on Tuesday, lab and dentist on Thurs, Harvest Days on Saturday daytime and sandy's that night, with good friends, I hope, or not...at least Sandy, June and I will be there, and we always have fun bashing men!!! If your not there, we will bash you toooo, so best be there !!!!
I find i'm really ansty to get packing and get moved, to just decorate a place of my own, my own tastes, arrangements, no criticism, the music i like, and just winston and i, it's gonna be nice, where ever i end up...you will be able to call 24 hours a day then, no 10:15 cut off, i answer 24 hours a day and like to get up and go out for coffee at 1 a.m. and such !! FREEDOM !!
No curfew, no rules, restrictions, and no make up on days i don't want to put it on....
I think your pretty lucky to know me, cuz, if i send this to you, i would do anything for you, anytime, all you need do is ask, and the door is always open to you....
you have a terrific week, this week and look for me again soon, i haven't recieved any letter from you for a while, and i'd sure like one...
Sherry and Winston

oh, brother i hit the wrong button, so cont'd
Happy Friday to everyone !!!!
Today was simply marvelous, I began by writing Jim a good bye letter and wrote him a poem too, his loss, not mine, cuz, i'm okay being alone, he doesn't want to be alone, and is settling for a dysfunctional life, so, time for me to move ahead.
My girlfriend, Darrelle, Oak Park, invited me to go to an Art Fair in the art district of oak park tonight, they have this monthly with loads of shops, very artsy people, educated, lots of ecclectic restaurants, and it was so nice, just browsing, walking, smelling the flowers, look at the gorgeous , old , 3 story homes, eating at a sidewalk cafe,and just enjoying one another's company. She's a nurse too, and also an artist and author of a great book, soon to be screen play and we hope a movie, a true biography of happenings in her life.. so, it was a great day all in all.
got a wonderful email this a.m. from Ida, and another from Marcia, both lauding my efforts at writing, and both told me that I say things as they are, and i do, my right to do this, with that first ammendment, and i will continue to do so...hey, speaking of ammendments, i saw an actual "american" cab driver tonight, right in oak park, in front of the ymca....he was about 50, and we talked and i applauded him for being the last american, white, cab driver in any metropolitan area, didn't think there were any left now, he says he's been driving a cab for 10 years, all over the city, but lives at the Y.M.C.A.in oak park, so, a single white guy with a job and teeth and definitely has a car is available...
wrote all my girlfriends a note and asked them to get together before my ankle surgery, heard from one early, early this a.m. who was just thrilled to hear from me, so, she's available for a get together....anyone else game????
Isn't Michael Douglas just a hottie, cutie !!!! wowowow, he's on letterman tonight, and he's still a hunk of burning love !!! but no hair on his chest, so lame o, lame o, men without hair don't do a thing for me, gotta have that hair to nuzzle in.... he's gonna be 65 years old this month !!!!
I've decided to move my ankle surgery up a few weeks, don't want to wait till october 30, why not start healing right away, i've had a problem with it since i was 17, worse the last 6 years, so, Monday i'll call the doc and set the date, will keep you informed next week.
I think i will take tomorrow off, will not blog on Saturdays, and let things happen that are interesting to write about, not that i don't have an interesting day every single day, cuz i make them interesting, smile at strangers, tell people they are pretty or handsome, if they are, they should hear that...oh, pretty Judy was here this a.m., i love seeing her and she even "drops" in like the old days, we are still normal and do that.....
Tiger is golfing right up the road from our house, the traffic is brutal near Cog Hill, but, man, he's good, and soo handsome, mom loves him, but if I had brought Tiger home, in the 60's, she'd have had my ass, funny how times change,huh....but he's just beautiful and seems like such a down to earth man....greatest athlete of our time, he must spend hours every day working out, training, is sure dedicated and made his father soo proud....
Well, I'm signing off, going to bed now, it's almost 11:30 p.m. I've done enough for today....
you have a wonderful week end, hope the weather is good wherever you are, it is here...such a pretty time of year and you know, October is my favorite month of all, always has been.
So, Goodnight and hope to hear from you soon...

Thursday, September 10, 2009
hello , i'm tired of keeping track of the week, day
so, i'm not going to do that any longer, as this is suppose to be fun, not work, no stress, it's not graded, and after all, these are my thoughts, right/wrong/indifferent !!!! It's been just a lovely day, the weather is such to feel really great about being alive, being in the here and now of it all.
Tomorrow, i "think" i'll go see the woodstock movie, all by myself, alone, me-myself, stan wouldn't like it, he's not into that kind of music or culture, but I remember it well, not that I went to woodstock or even tried pot, but i sure liked the music and for many years i wish i would have had the gumption to go, to be that cool, to night care about showering for a few days, not caring about anything....but, I was too small town, way too Catholic with all the inhibitions that went with it, trying to be "in", but always just outside of it all, if there was another woodstock for senior citizens, I'd be the first to leave, believe me, and would pick up Judy and Darrelle, and maybe Sandy would go too, i know we would have the balls to do it, without the sack !!! Music, sex, drugs and rock and roll, baby !!! actually, tonight all the cool folks , mellencamp, Kristofferson, Springsteen, Joan Biaz, Arlo Guthrie, were on the T.V. for a 90th birthday celebration for Pete Seeger, kind of funny, the druggies, as they were known as, are still going strong, look at keith richards, rod stewart, if we could have been so insightful to do some of those drugs, write some of those lyrics, made some of that money and be as with it as they are today....Who ever said, "Drugs Kill"??????????? baloney sausage, and i 'll never know cuz i didn't do any, i couldn't inhale, after all !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
so, next topic, my friend got a car seat for her pooch and i know i want one for Winston, he will be safe and be able to see out, she says, her dog loves it....just loves it, and is safe and secure !!!! so, on my wish list is a pet booster seat for a dog.....cuz i take winston with me everywhere i go, he's my companion, my security person, the man of my life....
got a few good jokes in email today, sent them to some of you, they are very funny and from a guy that graduated 3 years ahead of me, i still like him, by golly and he was a squints regular, so you know what that was about !!! and he still has a brain toooo
also, found the child i had in the 60's and gave up for adoption on facebook, and she is soo pretty and looks just like me, with a son, which i didn't know cuz we've lost track of one another, and i found her sis also, so sent them both a note, hope they respond...but it's good to see her picture and she looks happy.
T.V. really sucks ! but, next week, the season begins.....Curb Your Enthusiasm is back on sunday night on HBO, actually I got HBO just for that series....it's funny, he's just an ordinary guy, Larry David, who created Seinfeld, but this show is all about him, his life and his friends, and he is always in trouble, he's kind of a bumbler, he reminds me of the things I innocently get in to....sort of in trouble all the time, right on the edge !!!!
and then..."In Treatment" will be back, show about a psychologist and 5 /6 of his patients, 6 1/2 hour segments every week, we look into their lives...HBO, it's excellent, and i like all of the troubled people a lot, then, there will be the violent shows, i like the violent ones a lot, but the Shield has ended, NYPD Blue is over, the sopprano's ended....gosh, will there be more violence to go to sleep with that is just fantasy, like the news is every single night, Marcia doesn't stay up for the news...so she sleeps peacefully, I get fuel from it however, and lots of dreams.....well, nightmares.....but i like em once in a while, will sleep peacefully for eternity after all, gotta get my fix where i can get it...!!!!!
Some of you write me when i don't blog daily, say you miss it....so, i'm asking could this be a career for me??? could i get paid to do this????? do articles about life, stuff, human relationships, sex, booze, affairs, humor, things people like to read about...cuz their own life is dull, and i like spicing it up....should i send copies of my blogs to some magazine people???? news people? bill Maher?????? I do have such a wacky sense of humor, i find funny stuff in every single instance...like when i had surgery for melanoma, i looked awful, big bandage on my nose, yellow, looked like a corn cob.....with a drain hanging out the side of my neck. Butch took me to the oakley for a cheeseburger like that, and some guy was staring at me , Butch saw the guy, and yelled, "Buddy, for crying out loud, don't stare, she's a cancer survivor!!!!" the guy almost crapped his pants and ran out the door of the bar !!! we laughed and laughed about it....still remember that day very well..... see, humor, i thought i was gonna die, but it was still funny !!!!!!!!
Well, i changed fonts to write that, now can't find the regular font, brother....john was here today for a computer lesson, i forgot how to scan photo's , burn discs, forgot everything and just couldn't get it...it's gone from my brain, and i don't know how to find it again another example of this damn brain injury, i'm really sick of it....glad i still know/remember you......but, soon i might forget, so if you don't hear from me for a while, call and remind me...i'm serious about this....
so, for tonight, Fuck Jim, Fuck Stan, Fuck Men, (except Winston) and of course, my friend Ray, california Ray, who loves me no matter how goofy i get/am, he faithfully calls me almost every single week, just to check on me, and say he loves me, why can't a straight man feel that way????? guess he's like a girlfriend to me ! i'll take that though, faithful, like my friends....maybe Jim died, looked at the obits tonight, he wasn't there, but maybe they haven't found his body yet...i dunno....
Good night....

week 3, day 2 already !!!!
so, hi !!!
It's hump day for most, but every day seems like the same to me, after all, i'm now not earning a decent living right now, but, the weather is just to wonderful to be working. Ya know, people always say it's just beautiful outside, well, when your inside all day, what does that matter?
wasn't it wonderful to have a teacher that took the class outside and sat on the lawn for the period? or even in biology when we went on looking for leaf trips and collecting bug trips, I don't think they do that anymore, do they???????
Well, NEWS !!!! My left ankle reconstruction surgery date is now set ! It's going to be October 30 at the University of Chicago, Dr. Brian Toolen will do it, I will be in the hospital from Friday a.m. to Sunday, that's it ! and then, home with my left leg/foot elevated continuously for 6 weeks, only up to the bathroom, and to the periodic M.D. appointments, after that, 6 more weeks toe touch only, on crutches so by the spring, I will be totally ambulatory and ready for new spring shoes !!!!!! and very little limp after that, so I will no longer be the "gimp with the limp" !!!! Now, there is a "chance" slim but still a chance, that i will have the surgery on Sept 22, that would just be great, i am going to call again tomorrow and see, if that's the case, by Thanksgiving I can be up on the foot and by christmas, home free !!!! won't that be wonderful? it's something i've wanted and prayed for a long, long time.
I will keep you updated, in case you want to send flowers, chocolates, a male stripper to the hospital, anything you think you might want to put in my face !!!!lol
Went to Tar jje this afternoon, my Winston jumped out of the car, and ran right in the target door, some kids grabbed him for me, guess he wanted to shop toooo, and was promptly locked in the jail of the Rav 4. and.... I didn't buy anything impulsive in that store today, just got exactly what i went for , but i don't remember what it was, a calendar, i think...NOT
do you watch/tape the Bonnie Hunt show? she's such a stitch and i think down to earth, well, she's from chicago and was an R.N. at childrens memorial before playing bit parts and eventually a movie star. She had a 78 year old woman, Wanda, from Iowa who started writing a column for the local paper, so her kids could get to know her better, and what a hoot she is!!! and, then, bonnie had kids do a fashion show from what clothes Wanda wears or writes about, it was fabulous and such a laugh, wonder if i could do that? write a column for a paper? what do you think? just about human interest stuff, and boy do i find humans interesting....
Currently, there is a lawyer from DCFS, who's working on the pending case about the kid who died the nurses i supervised were taking care of, and he emailed me today, he wants me.......BAD too !!!! you should see his emails.....so, i've still got it !!!!!
Now, the president is on about health care reform, what do you think? i'm in healthcare and i don't understand it, I "think" he is for the everyday guy, but i don't know, i wish someone would just tell the truth, the bottom line, don't you???? I trully think, that it will come, once your old, your to be eradicated...the boomers are getting older, will cost a lot of money soon, and i think we will be the first to be out of luck, as you know, we are older than Obama and most of the up and coming politicians are younger than us, so by the time they are older, it will be changed back...think about it....Oh, Barack just said, "nothing you have now is going to change" and it will be against the law for an insurance company to limit you due to pre existing illnesses."
and a limit will be place on out of pocket expenses....is this too good to be true?????
this really "sounds" good, no on to the rest !!!!!
So, are you feeling good now??????? uplifted????? put on your yamika and smoke some marijuanica, have a gin and tonica and then...pass out !!!!! where the hell did that come from?
Tomorrow is Thursday, if you wear yellow your a queer ! Remember that? red on Monday, a whore? where did that stuff begin???? hey, lets all of us girls get together for a drink before my ankle surgery, Ida says her hubby bought her a new SUV and she is only 11 hours from Streator, let's pick a date and just party hearty !!!!!!! well, as hearty as we seniors can, i'd say one drink, that'll be it, but hey, let's get one of the suites at the Super 8, it sleeps 8, and hang out around the pool, and be safe and party !!!! wanna????????
Well, i have a book I need to finish, "Metro Girl" by Janet Evanovich, it's funny as all of her books are, so, guess I'll close for right now and read after "my" president is off, after the reporters tell us what he said, as if we don't know, how insulting? they interfere with all the programs at night, then the debate and another recap...sick of this shit....i want to hear it from the horses mouth....
So, Say good night, senior wenchez...... good night, Winston

Remember that? red on Monday, a whore? where did that stuff begin???? hey, lets all of us girls get together for a drink before my ankle surgery, Ida says her hubby bought her a new SUV and she is only 11 hours from Streator, let's pick a date and just party hearty !!!!!!! well, as hearty as we seniors can, i'd say one drink, that'll be it, but hey, let's get one of the suites at the Super 8, it sleeps 8, and hang out around the pool, and be safe and party !!!! wanna????????
Well, i have a book I need to finish, "Metro Girl" by Janet Evanovich, it's funny as all of her books are, so, guess I'll close for right now and read after "my" president is off, after the reporters tell us what he said, as if we don't know, how insulting? they interfere with all the programs at night, then the debate and another recap...sick of this shit....i want to hear it from the horses mouth....
So, Say good night, senior wenchez...... good night, Winston
