SNOW way!!

Am I being punked this morning? Snow again outside! I need to go to the store and pick up a few things, but forget it now. Yeah, I know to some people it may look like a layer or you might not really see anything at all. Ha-ha, you might be the one getting punked then.
Once upon a time...no really maybe like two winters ago I woke up like my normal routine to go to work. I wasn't rushing because by now I had been getting up a little earlier to leave in enough time to just drive without rage and to also get an extra few minutes to myself before starting my job. Well this particular morning when I went to leave I noticed a tiny bit of snow had fallen the night before and all that had really remained was what was on the grass. No big deal right?
Enter the Car Ice Capades...I'm not kidding either! Maybe during my sleep that night the Car Capades came through and took applications and my Jeep thought it could be graceful and signed up...who knows. What I can tell you was I wasn't informed that the tryouts would be on this one very long stretch of backroad I took to work everyday. Oh my I thought I was in a really bad dream as a rounded that first corner and my car started just slip-sliding all over the road. It can't be true, we were headed for a very large oak tree in someones yard and there was nothing I could do to stop it. Just as we hit the curb (which was on the opposite side of the road, thankfully no cars were coming) and entered the yard the force in which I hit sent my Car Capading Jeep in a new direction...thank GOD! We smashed and took out their mailboxes and sent them flying to who knows where and back on the road I was unable to stop.
We had a few laughs at work about the whole thing (I still got there on time), as I told the ladies if they see a random mailbox in the parking lot I didn't know anything about it and don't look at me. We all laughed immediately as they knew what that meant.
No more Car Capades for me thank you!

***note...An apology note was left for the people whose mailbox was demolished with information on how to get in touch with me to replace it, they never did, they have a nice mailbox now and I'd like to make sure they keep it.

Addicted

Addicted, who me? I can't be, or can I...or maybe I just have an addictive personalitiy. Yeah, that has to be it.
I just played this game for the first time ever last night...Words With Friends, ever heard of it? Oh my...I'm hooked!
 It was only within a few minutes of playing that I had already had 3 games going at once, and oh if they didn't move fast enough I added a new game. By time it was all said and done I was running 6 games! I REALLY liked this game and wanted to play. I then notice I player gave up quick, then 2 more sorta fizzled out so I was left playing back and forth between 3 games until 2 more just seemed to disappear too, I was then left with 1 lonely game. Happy to still be playing, this player stuck it out til the end and won...Congratulations to you! Really, what is a person to do with 2 R's, a Z and a Q? I feel as thou I did well my first time out and I promise I'll be back, and this time to WIN!!!

Dentures, want some?

What is up with today's youth? The lack of respect for adults is unreal. I can't believe my ears these days the way the teens (oh, and younger) talk, using foul language. It's not even just hiding it when their away from their parents ear-shot either. They're using it at their parents and not just here and there it's like it's part of their regular vocabulary. I'm not immune to this problem either, I also have a mouthy teen who for some reason thinks this is OK. I have no idea why because I have clearly taught him differently. I myself have no clue where the big turn around came from, maybe because I was apart of Generation X which really wasn't all that long ago, but I can't remember us being this disrespectful and nasty. I will have to say with honesty that I wasn't the best teen, I did push boundaries and do things I shouldn't have but a full lack of respect towards my parents or any other adult for that matter was pretty much unheard of. I would be willing to bet we would've been a generation of toothless teens if we had been this way because we knew our parents would have hauled off and socked us clean in the mouth, at least I knew mine would have. Starting to wonder if the world needs to get back to that, I guess if we did we would probably put most orthodontists out of business, but hey the denture makers today would be rolling in cash!

YouTube

Have you ever went on YouTube? What did you see...never mind, I don't even want to know...lol
I have a YouTube account as many people do, and I have a few videos posted (all of my pups playing), just for fun. Well I thought I would go through and look at a few other puppy videos just to get a laugh or two...ha ha, joke was on me. How do you go from puppies playing one minute to nasty zit popping videos and worse the next. Is someone on there punking me...REALLY? I still go on periodically to see what my son may have added but I'm VERY careful what kind of key words go into the search bar because there are just some things I  DO NOT want to see THANK YOU!

Buzzing...bizz, bizz, bizzzzz

Have you ever sat in one of those vibrating massage chairs? Did you like it and never want it to end? Now imagine you had that feeling going on inside your body...yes, I said inside your body, all day everyday 24 hours a day. Do you think you would still enjoy it. NO! I have that feeling, it started out like OK, cool no problem, this could work. Ha-ha jokes on me, it's really starting to get annoying.
Why am I buzzing do you ask...it's a Spinal Cord Stimulator. I had it implanted in December to help with chronic pain from CRPS/RSD in my left leg, while it helps at about 15 - 20%  I buzz regularly. The weirdest part for me is if I cough, sneeze or laugh it sends the volume up, and sometimes very high. Best Buy, that place is the most fun, I have to be turned off before entering their store or catch one heck of a jolt on the way in as their security scanners are no joke! I was told this could be a possibility for me as every ones body is different and some are more sensitive then others, I guess mine is sensitive...go figure. I finally got a card in the mail to prove that I have this device implanted so I can by-pass these detectors, thank God! What prompted me to write this today was the weather, it's getting so cold outside now that I have noticed that if I begin to shiver at all boy does the buzzing volume begin...up, down, up, down. It's a good thing people can't see me vibrating, I can only imagine what I could possibly look like all winter with all the the shivering...lol

Containers, totes and bins!

UGH! You name it containers, totes, bins, baskets anything something can be put in I have it. I won't lie either when I'm in Target and I see all the storage containers I'm plotting and planning in my mind what I could use them for. Is this an addiction or something? You name it I have it in my home for some type of organization...shoot, I have organization for organization. I'm so far ahead of myself that I have containers for things I don't even have yet...oh, and I'll justify why I absolutely need them. Starting to think I need a 12 step program, but then I would need something to keep all the paperwork in...

Goose Poop

Again, really....goose poop! You have got to be kidding me. It sounds like 1 million loud, squawking, winged poop machines were enjoying their layover during their flight to wherever land right in the front of my condo this morning. Now comes the issues of all the GOOSE POOP. Who is gonna clean this up you ask...well definitely not the association we pay every month. Funky mess making birds. It always seems to me everyone looks to the dogs owners when there is any type of poop on the ground as if it can only come from a canine...NOT SO! I needed to get this off my chest before I took the dogs out and picked up the goose poop too...just sayin.
