"Blog Tease"???

Well I never???!!!
Someone, who shall currently remain nameless has, I have been informed, called me a 'Blog Tease'(behind my back,no less) because I have not Posted in several days !!! A)They do even have a Blog , B) Their Husband's Ass muscle's are sore , C) They had a Birthday yesterday(Happy Birthday!!!!,SIL), & D)Nahhh-nah,nah,nah,boo-boo(I'm really doing that face where I stick my tough out & make that totally 'childish' noise)LOL.
Okay, now that ,that little tirade is over, I just feel oh,ever so much better :)!
I have been sooo dawg-gone busy this week because while Reg was out of town , I low & behold decide to undertake the arduous task of going through all the 'stuff ' from the old RV kitchen(which seems to be everything)& washing/sorting to put in the brand new, shiny RV . And in the midst of that I start re-arranging the 'still in limbo' but newly(kinda) re-done Laundry area & moving the wall of Free-standing Pantry's from the in-between kitchen/laundry area,which of course have to be emptied....okay you all see where this going,right??? Talk about ADD?? I should be the 'Poster Adult' for it! Anyway ,I'm also running basically a 'zoo kitchen' now since I'm having to cook all my own dog food(thanks dog food industry),because we lost our dog ' Galaxy' in a previous 2005 Diamond Dog food(1st ever & only bag I had bought) poisoning & did liver damage to my other Border Collie,Peaches. So,needless to say I am a tad bit paranoid since every can of 'Nutro' dog food I still had left in the pantry was a 'recall #' w/the newest Menu food debacle ....see there I go...on another 'thread'...."reel it back in" as My cousin DeeDee(short for Dianne) says (she has it too)!!Okay, so by now my kitchen,Dining Room,& Living Room involved....let's just say I have a well stocked pantry, & that everyone should pack-up & head to 'Maw-maw's' in case of 'Thunder Dome" LOL!!!! In fact ya'll just come anytime,ya hear?? I make the best buttermilk biscuit ever was....hey, my Grandma Margie gave me the handmade wood 'family biscuit bowl' before she died because she said I made the best biscuit in the family & that she didn't have anything else she would think I would want;just you Grandma,I miss you sooo much,& yes I have the 'knowing' as you called it,you left me that too.
Oh lord,now I've gone off & made myself weepy.
Plus, I had to take the 2 enormous garbage cans down the long,winding partially gravel Driveway , plus I had dumped a ton of old catalogs,magazines,etc which made it an extra heavy load to roll. And me being all of 108lbs I either push or drag the container's ;so,I can either possibly get run over or drug down the the DW by said container's , because I ain't lettin' go know matter(my stubborn streak)what;it has happened before,plus it was raining to boot! And w/all this I have Border Collie's wanting to be fed,thrown Frisbee's & ball's to & have to keep an side eye on the 2 Herder's of the Horse's to make sure there are no problems.....and on top of all this my regular chore's,& I had to go to the Dentist & see 'my' Patti for a cleaning(clean check-up :)) ,& of course have my Hair done w/ 'my' Ashlee! I broke down & started eating the 'Dog Food' for Supper whilst 'plating' theirs ; it was either that or starve !!So Reg calls Thursday from LAX to have me check & see if there were any delays on his connection in Chicago(I worked 13yrs for a now 'defunct' major Airline,so He thinks I can figure stuff out,beyond the basics; & I can) & there was a Mandatory Crew delay 'cause of FAA required layovers 'tween shifts for Pilot's & FA's 4 safety,but only 'bout 30minutes. Of course I went off on a tirade about why didn't they put him on the Non-Stop that would have gotten in 5 hours earlier & was boarding @ the same time his was...."I don't know" was his response...AAAAHHHH!!!!! Then I said "be real careful",duhhh,like he's going to be flying the plane! Why do we say stuff like that? Then I warned him about the impending 'disaster' @ home & not to freak out that I had a "plan"...hahaha...Reg said, "see you @ 1:30am,Love you,can't wait to get home".Mayhem ensued upon his arrival,w/BC's all fighting to be 1st to get to their Daddy & all was right w/our world!
Saturday, I had good intentions in the Morning then collapsed mid-day to try to re-gain energy & momentum ; what a week!!!

'The Secret' is Out!

I have very,very fine,naturaly Curly hair ! I have fought it for years on my own with various huge curlers,heat curlers,hair dryer's,etc. But about 1 1/2 years ago I 'found' my hairdresser & now a great friend,Ashley. At first it was just cuts,highlights,& drying once every few months. But I for some reason(everyone says I'm lucky) I only have to wash & 'do' my hair once a week!! And so I asked Ashley, if she would mind washing & doing my hair every week so it would always look good & because my hair is also Long, Thick ! It causes me to get VERY hot;especially in Summer while blowing it dry & Reggie knows not to come near the bathroom or I literally 'growl' at him;I'm usually a very sweet person : )!! Anyhow my long,blonde,obnoxious hair is now Wonderful & pretty much, always looks good. The main problem I have with this though is,how many of you remember your Grandmother's or Mother's having their 'Blue Hair' or 'Jet Black Hair ' done every week,back when??? My hair is completely soft & touchable but, I kinda feel like My Gandma Margie or Grandma Podlasinski w/the little blue,gray curls, in my mind.AAhhh,My mind can be be a demeaning place sometime!
The good news is though I found out that almost everybody I talk to walking around w/perfectly straight locks is also a 'Closet Curly'....misery loves company, as they say.

My First Post

Okay , I finally have done it! I have joined the 'Blog world' at last, after much prodding from my DH,Reg.Alright now what do I say?? Oh my gosh the pressure not to BORE everyone to death;I'll do my best!

It is so windy here today and we're supposed to have a 'Huge' Scaley Bark Hickory tree(they are pretty rare,I understand from the Arborist) taken down today;I'm afraid because the last time we had trees taken down(no wind involved) we had just had a new roof & gutters/downspout installed & low & behold one fell on the House(Ka-Boom)! I also hate doing this because the tree is beautiful & has a lot of Memories.Of course We have 8 1/2 acres of almost all Hardwoods so I guess this is a little silly,huh?But Reg had a 'Hissy Fit' (ugly,ugly,ugly) though while parking the new 5th wheel because of this particular tree, so I guess not to experiance THAT again, it will be worth it : ) !
