I had a good day...

Apr 19, 2009 02:46

Today was a good day. Why? Because today was a "me" day, and "me" days rock. I went to a garden faire (things are so much better when spelled in Old English, don't you think?) with my friend and neighbor Felicia, and we had a wonderful time. As you all know, I am the Jack Kevorkian of plants, so I merely looked and admired. Felicia bought a ( Read more... )

friends, fun, music

WWE wrestling broadcast 2 shows a week, Raw and Smackdown, that are taped at different arenas each week. The shows have different "casts," so you see different wrestlers when you go to Raw or Smackdown. My favorite wrestlers are on the Raw show, so I'm excited about this event in Charlotte. I love Triple H; he's my all-time favorite, and he's on Raw (Raw just means raw action).

I remember Hospice telling us about the 5 day respite. We used it for my uncle when my mom had to go in the hospital. We had both of them in the same hospital! Please get some rest for yourself.

Thanks for explaining..I think, I can order that on TV some-times..I'll do that when Kyle comes back so we can do it together though..Please photos..k

I will seriously consider respite care..Hospice comes tomorrow at 1pm to evaluate angelmomma..I really feel, I owe it to both of us for me to take some one on one time..you know? It won't make me bad?, and I hope they would take as good as care of her, as me...sigh.

Re: WWE Raw headbanger118 April 20 2009, 04:07:18 UTC

No, it won't make you bad. You must take care of you, if you want to continue to take care of her. When my uncle was dying from cancer, and my mom was in the hospital for a month with a ruptured colon, if my sister and I had not used the respite care, we couldn't have made it. It's ok to take care of yourself. You deserve that.

What that the Garden Faire in Abingdon? I went to that one a few years ago, but I was thinking it was in May.

Yay for tickets! We'll have to do another phone post. "I can't say butthead!" :-P

It's was this past weekend, sorry! My neighbor asked me; we both needed some Mommy's Day Out time. It was wonderful. You know I love C dearly, but with the homeschooling, there is no time that we are not together.

So, are we doing dinner this week? I'll be in town both Wed. and Thurs. night.

Never heard of pineapple sage. I'll have to find some of that. I did help my mother plant a spice garden last weekend and I am going to start my own eventually. We planted rosemary, sage, lemongrass (my favorite with a panfried steak,) mint and catnip (she claims it is a natural roach repellent) I planted two lemon trees in my yard so maybe later this year when they start to produce I can box a few and send to Kimmy and she can share with you. Note: For some reason the lemons that grow here ripen very sweet, lemony yet sweet. Go figure.

Oh damn, all those fruit butters! (I got hungry typing this and had to pop in a microwave dinner) You know, I had no idea there was such a thing as apple butter until our family moved to TN. Imagine living 18 years and having never tried apple butter... I got a packet of apple butter from an MRE that the fire dept handed out after the storm last year but it didn't quite taste the same.

FIG BUTTER SUCKS! madbax April 19 2009, 21:01:28 UTC

...and yeah, I bet Kimmy + WWE event = hilarious time. Shenanigans, explosions, heavy metal music and huge guys in tights running around tea-bagging each other (and not in a tax protest way.)

Re: FIG BUTTER SUCKS! headbanger118 April 19 2009, 23:29:57 UTC

Oh, Kimmy has gone to a WWE event with me before, and half the fun is getting there, using her German Female Nazi GPS that we have named Ilsa. Seriously, the voice sounds like Ilsa the prison guard. I keep expecting her to say "Achtung! Turn left or DIE!"

Fresh lemons! YUM. Yeah, I think it might be an exercise in futility to grow lemons in East TN. And I can't believe you had never experienced apple butter until you came to TN! And I'm pretty sure MRE apple butter was NOT cooked in an iron kettle over a fire, which is the ONLY way to do it.

The herb garden sounds terrific. I'd grow one, but I'm the killer of all things grean and leafy.

The apricot butter is DEElicious.

Poor Kim. :( Take Z instead, he likes wrasslin.

headbanger118 April 20 2009, 18:15:01 UTC

Actually Kim and I have had a blast every time we have gone. Getting there is half the fun, with her GPS, whose voice sounds like a Female Nazi Prison Guard; we've named her Ilsa.

Like me, Kim sees it as a chance to people watch just have good, campy fun.
