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 !!!!
Winstons mother.....
it's a sunny, beautiful day after yesterdays awful, dreary rainy day, such a difference and glad of it !!!

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...
