Freedom will be mine!

Tired to the Bone!

acngal — Sun, 15 May 2011 04:42:15 +0000

Sometimes I am so tired. I sit and think I should be doing something, since Heaven knows I have a never ending list of things that need to be done. I really think that part of my exhaustion is mental. All day long I have so much mental stress along with the physical that by the end of the day I am a vegetable, and I sit like one, without the energy to do even one more thing. But I just can’t make myself get up and get even that one more thing done!

Heavenly Clean

I really hope that in the hereafter with our perfected bodies that we get to be clean all the time without the need for showers or baths. I think we should just have the dirt and grime bounce right off as if we are made of teflon! I am so tired of taking showers. Well, really it is not the shower it’s self, it is all the stuff afterward. Drying off, and if you feel so inclined, powdering. Then deodorant, and face lotion so your skin doesn’t look like someone is stretching it. Then there is hair. Drying it enough with the towel so you don’t continue to drip all over yourself and then brushing it, but watch for tangles, that will stretch your hair and cause unneeded split ends…and it is really not even dry yet, so if you use a hair dryer, depending on your hairstyle, you need to use a big brush to get it into the shape you want, because if you let it air dry, you look like you got out of the pool and let it dry. Oh, and ears, now you have water in your ears so must use a cotton swab and get that excess out….ok, I am ready for a nap now, and I am not even dressed yet!

Shawn and Krissy came for dinner and brought pumpkins to carve…for fun, and FHE!
I ran out of room for downloading my pictures on here, and can’t afford the upgrade, so will have to think of something else…..?

Working on Scout records. Most people have no clue what goes into keeping track of all these boys and what they do!

I put the calculator there to cover up last names just in case they showed up!

Winter garden is coming along nicely! Of course, the temp being around 100 degrees has really helped them get started! Any one for pickled beets in March? Ymmm!

want to see how my blog works, so am going to play with it all a bit. Just ignore this if it makes it to facebook.

Car Wash Disaster

acngal — Mon, 11 Oct 2010 01:13:21 +0000

Be careful what is on your antenna when you get your car washed if they use those big shammy covered rollers that go along the side and top of your car. Now, don’t get me wrong, those shammy things did an excellent job of getting 6 months of dirt and grime off my car, but when I heard the thunk, I knew what happened. Mr Wienerschnitzel along with my antenna went flying! I pulled out and went back to see for sure and sure enough, I was right, and yes, Mr. Wiendrschnitzel was still hanging on for dear life!

I was able to get a replacement so I can listen to Glenn Beck again! $11.27 (or so) later! I almost didn’t get my car washed, because I am living on an extremely tight budget, but the thought of doing it myself overcame my reluctance. Well, it cost me more than I thought it would, didn’t it. But now, I can just take off the replacement and drive thru again in another 6 months and be worry free!

Old Family Friends and Memories – 10/10/10

acngal — Sun, 10 Oct 2010 16:33:23 +0000

Brother Sam Yusko’s viewing and family/friend dinner was this evening. We have known the Yusko’s since 1984. Sister CheronYusko came up to my parents, who are almost 10 years older than her and said, “How is it that we are all still here, and he is gone?” All 3 of them are in way worse health than Sam had been, Sam was the healthiest one, but he ended up going first. It was a nice viewing, with lots of visitors. There was no funeral, so this was sort of a memorial. Sam was kind of a funny guy! He loved scouting, and gardening. That is what I remember most about him. That, and that he loved and was proud of his Jewish heritage.

Sad Days

Today I went and helped pack up some of the kitchen stuff in Bro. & Sis. Yusko’s apartment. You see on Monday, Bro. Sam Yusko passed away. He is Cassie Yusko Jones’ father. He had had surgery the week before and seemed to be recovering fine, but there must have been a problem, maybe a blood clot or something and he died instantly. So now Sis. Yusko is living with the Jones’ again and we are all helping to pack up their stuff to move it out of the apartment. Everyone seems to be doing okay. Cassie is having a tough time of it, from time to time, when she slows down enough for it to hit her. They are all taking it one day at a time.
