family stuff



Pat is getting to see more of his daughter. It is frustrating for him. He sees her making serious mistakes and cannot do anything about it. She is young, early 20's, with 2 kids and out on her own for the first time. Big mistake #1 that she does not see is she has a roommate that does not have a job and has several kids of her own, no welfare check or child support either! Big mistake #2, she is in love with a guy she met through her roommate that is in prison, (roommate's brother) Big mistake #3 she changes jobs and quit her other job 2 weeks BEFORE starting new job. She is letting other people use her phone and they ran her out of minutes AND ran up her phone bill. She is letting other people drive her car while she was at work, now it is broke. She received a LARGE tax refund and is broke, hocked her car and her rings and borrowed money from us for food this week. Pa told her no more. She can come to the farm and I will feed her, she can move in but NOT the "friends". She does not see they are only using her. The roommate claims to have been looking for a job for over 6 months, yet Pat's daughter found a job in less than a week. This child was never taught how to survive on her own. It will take hitting bottom for her to see that she is being used. As for this marriage, I pray that she waits(plans are for next week!) until he gets out. Then I pray she waits for a long time! I fear for her. She is in for big problems.


Having a bit of trouble typing this as I have a lump on my shoulder. Buddy decided he wanted to watch what I was doing and climbed on the back of the chair and watched me type.




Brook got her hair cut. It sure is short! She wanted it cut this way. I think she looks cute But I really think it will look cuter AFTER it has grown out some.

Teeth and motorcycles, doctor and kids

Pat and I went on several rides this past weekend on the motorcycle. I know I looked a bit silly. I wore a mask on the rides on days when normally you would not see anyone wearing one. I found out real quick that the wind HURT! While we were out Pat turned into the Huddle House without thinking so we could get a bite to eat! LOL The look on his face when he realized what he did was priceless. He gets all apologetic and starts saying I'm sorry baby. I laughed and told him that I have been watching you eat all week now so what is one more meal. I did get a piece of cheesecake. It is one of those foods you really do not have to chew on. I can suck on a straw now so I am making my slim fast smoothies. I also bought some of those drinks that are supposed to help your immune system. At Walmart they have some with all Spanish labels on them for 88 cents for 5 verus $2.50 for 6 name brand kind. I also have started taking my multi-vitamins. As for calcium, I think I am getting plenty of that as I am drinking a quart or more of milk a day now.

Friday I took Brook to the doctor to get a shot, Gardasil,second in a series of 3. While I was there, I had them check her out as she has been coughing and wheezing a bit. She was wheezing them but her strep test came back negative and her ears were clear. She had been running a fever some at night, one night was over 102. They said just keep on with what I was doing. Well Today I had to take her back to the doctor. I knew I would have to when I took her there Friday!. This time they put her on Augmentin for 10 days as her ears and sinuses were infected. Poor thing could not hear at all out of one ear. They did a hearing test on her and she only heard 2 of the tones! She will get better now.

I have worthless cats! Fat, worthless cats. I have mice! I was so mad when I saw one in my house! S yestrday I bough mouse traps. I have caught 7 mice so far. I will have to fix a hole in the wall that was behind a dresser that was back to the shower opening in Brook's bedroom. I am so mad. I refused to feed any cats for the last 2 days except for Buddy. He can't catch mice seeing how he is crossed eyed.

Okay Heroes is on. See everyone later!
