COLD DARK ROOM

[Cathie G]

Damn! I am not the best repairman but I can work in a lot of disciplines. Two neighbors that have since passed away I did almost as much work as people they payed to work for them! It was how I was raised and it helps me sleep at night!

Yep. Acts of kindness give the giver way more.

 

[Cathie G]

Some people just don’t think... you certainly would have been in your rights to tell them..... pretty much anything ?

And could blame it on the morphine ?

 

[Chefdenoel10]

I hear you. I'll be thinking of you. When I'm going thru something the people around me expect me to be superwoman. When they are they whine and cry like babies. They only made me stronger.?

yes but how do ya tell them off?
I yelled at my sister and MY MOTHER?
On Tuesday when they came to .... shampoo the rugs?
I never shampoo the rugs!!
(there is no need)
I told them I just want to go lay down in my bed so they told me ..ok...ok come sit down at the table and tells us what happened..
I was like.... WWWHHHHAAT???
Did you not just hear me!!
Long story short.. I yelled a lot about them causing drama. And they left in a huff.
I figured I just had surgery I should be SELFISH just this one time!
I am always there to help people and animals. I ALWAYS put myself last or not even thought of.. I was in pain and my mouth could nt hold back the stupidity they were putting me through..
My mom is Scottish and was like
I’ll never come back here AGAIN! Ppfffhh!!
???
(like she was kicked out.)
I am not a people person and I try NEVER to have to apologize to ANYONE. But I feel bad.... that’s my ma. ?☹️?
I was a punk head..???
Did I say long story short???..... ppfff! ??

 

[Chefdenoel10]

Hey, I apologize for my chuckle, your quality of help is more the norm, (sorry). My sister will get well quickly because I'm here, not because I'm good, but because she'll want to kick me out and have her privacy back hahaha. She was so stoned when I picked her up. I was going to make a video and my damn batteries died. Oh lordy she was funny. She couldn't have her eyes open...too funny

you will never get that video again in your whoooollleee life!
Yvonne will make sure that!
I am just like her..
Not a people person...
Don’t help me out cuz you’re doing it WRONG!
and .... well.... just go away.!
???? hahahaha
I get it Yvonne!! I get it!!!!! ????

even though you ARE a good sister Maggie.
Both of mine are fantastic but.... I just want to be left alone until I ASK (not demand) help... or ...just sit there and keep me company laughing and joking.
Not telling me how to keep house , what is my job gonna do to accommodate me, how will I ever get on without help with my big tortoise? My mom calls my tortoise
“That thing”. I get ssssoooooo mad!
I always say.... her name is sally or sal for short. (My mom is a dog/cat person.
If it is not either one she just doesn’t get it..

See you.

Hi ya.

 

[Chefdenoel10]

Some people just don’t think... you certainly would have been in your rights to tell them..... pretty much anything ?

thank you EllieMay,
It took me so long to catch up 28pages!!
I was only SOOOOO glad to hear you took your daughter home. Prayers DO work! ?
That being said just take it day by day
One situation at a time....
There is no way you should be thought of to handle all those new situations in one day all by yourself . You are very strong and brave and so is your daughter
I m still sending electronic hugs
all the best wishes and prayers to you and I am here to listen to you anytime day or night (if need be)
and there is no way in heck I’m gonna let the phone go and have to read another 28 pages all over again????????

 

[CarolM]

No, she was just talking about Yvonne, who I came down to help.

He looks like a cattle dog to me.
Yvonne is still at the hospital where I dropped her this morning.

I presume for a check up and nothing serious.

 

[Chubbs the tegu]

So truth be told I am not much of a drinker. I always get the look from doctor when I answer less than two drinks in a week! Well I needed more tequila so I went to the ABC store and it has been a long while. The empty field behind it is filled with townhouses with people living in them?

U sure? Maybe u had to much tequila? Haha

 

[Chubbs the tegu]

Friday ur finally back.. ive missed u so much! Dont ever leave me again u b*tch!... oh happy friday all

 

[Cathie G]

maybe use some to add to your drain pipes so water doesn’t come up against your house when it rains a lot?

Yea I can see how that could work. It's flexible plastic. It says 2" but it's rolled within itself and can be molded around something larger and still stay put. I was just happy I bought it on a lark to see if it would work for my aquarium. It's a perfect fit for the water filter. I've been trying to get rid of silk plants in Arrow's tank and just have real plants. I removed the last one today. I was using tall silk plants to cut down on the turbulence in his tank and now I don't have to. It allows the water filter to work at full capacity yet no turbulence. I'm pumped.

 

[CarolM]

doing much better as I was on morphene since Friday. I will take my last pill this Friday and be done.. my belly button is killing me but I can deal with that as opposed to being high.. (not a good high either)... and Im bored. I can’t sit here and let my house get dirty. When all is back to normal .. I WILL NEVER HAVE SURGERY AGAIN FOR ANYTHING! Not one person has really helped me as I would like and they all make me feel guilty if I don’t help them. Just today someone asked me for my planters that I keep on hand in the basement (they are heavy). Since I wasn’t using them could they give them to their sister? Waiting the whole time for me to hobble down there and get them!! I can’t wait to be all better...but I am ok as I know it could have been much worse. So I thank my lucky stars ⭐ . How are you doing ?
Everything with you and family ok?
did you finally guess anyone else’s missions?

Tell me who it was who wanted to make you hobble around in your condition, I will come on over and sort them out for you. Ridiculous how they want your stuff and still want you to injure yourself to go and fetch it for them too.

Sheesh, what is this world coming too?

 

[CarolM]

Now that the anesthia is finally gone, I'm doin' pretty good, thanx! There's a few aches and pains but doin'ok!

So glad you are doing better.

Why Hello you gorgeous thing.

 

[Cathie G]

yes but how do ya tell them off?
I yelled at my sister and MY MOTHER?
On Tuesday when they came to .... shampoo the rugs?
I never shampoo the rugs!!
(there is no need)
I told them I just want to go lay down in my bed so they told me ..ok...ok come sit down at the table and tells us what happened..
I was like.... WWWHHHHAAT???
Did you not just hear me!!
Long story short.. I yelled a lot about them causing drama. And they left in a huff.
I figured I just had surgery I should be SELFISH just this one time!
I am always there to help people and animals. I ALWAYS put myself last or not even thought of.. I was in pain and my mouth could nt hold back the stupidity they were putting me through..
My mom is Scottish and was like
I’ll never come back here AGAIN! Ppfffhh!!
???
(like she was kicked out.)
I am not a people person and I try NEVER to have to apologize to ANYONE. But I feel bad.... that’s my ma. ?☹️?
I was a punk head..???
Did I say long story short???..... ppfff! ??

Been there done that. I used to feel bad when things like that happen. Now I figure if you don't like me don't look. I refuse to spend another moment of what life I have left coming up with an answer for clearly bad nasty nosiness and behavior. One thing I've seen is whatever you say will make them believe you are at fault. Years later they'll apologize profusely. Then they'll promptly go back to being themselves. So I'm going to live my life with peace, love and help my neighbor. That's what I meant when I said they only made me stronger.?

I love you for saying that. And yes ... you guessed it... it was my husband wanting something for HIS sister...AND..... she never came and got them from him. ?
It all makes me feel nuts!!??
Maybe I need more morphene?
they are driving me crazy!!!
This morning I tried building a ramp to let my tort get her soak for the day. I did a fairly good job?
when I asked my husband to take care of her for just this first week here is how he took care of her... (instead of being out in her shed for night time..)
