For Pete Sake!

 Nothing wrong especially, but some things are just not the way I would love them to be.  Katie Isabella's blog will tell you what I mean.  

How about some scrumptious apple dumplings with lots of cinnamon as well as the usual ingredients? You got it.  Just show up in a couple of days.  Oh and when one of the boys comes home for James's birthday on the 30th, I will bake a pineapple pie for us.  I'll blind-bake the crust.  Don't like graham cracker crusts.  Let's do pastry.  We'll head over to James's home mid-early morning and be there awhile eating cake, and James'll be opening presents.  We'll stop at Costco and pick up their pre-made tacos on the way home again and I have some chocolate mint icecream for dessert on Saturday night. 

He'll be here from N.C. Friday afternoon and I am making homemade from scratch Sloppy Joes for him.  It is me making them, but oh they are SOOOOOOO good.  The kids have loved them (me too) since they were youngsters.  I buy the really large buns to serve them on.

Had my yearly doctor's visit.  Lab tests too~ and all is well.  That was a happy surprise.  I'm still recovering from all the stress and bad times so I expected less than good results but  I was wrong. 

Just sticking my hand in to see if anyone's there.


Still completely unable to add photos except the header.  No idea why but that's been going on over a month.

Not Once but Twice

 Wow!  This morning on FaceBook, I found that on two pages other than my own the TROLLS struck.  They did.  They came after me when I answered a poll question on someone's page, and  again they swarmed when I mentioned the words "Military time"  in answer to someone who asked if anyone used that method of time on their own page.  There came the F word three-letter abbreviation which I despise above most  words in response to my comment on my friend's page. I had said yes I do "and so do my family." (Had to use it...and it carries on as a habit of use. And the kids always admired me so they did too.) 

 It's so easy to use...there is never a doubt as to the time of day.  If an individual chooses to do that, or use any fashion of time...good.  It shows they learned time.  But if an individual is ignorant of the terms..shut up (your criticism) is what I say.  For the record, I try not to do so in the blogs.  But I do- as it is so habitual. 

Meanwhile, if you are my friend on FaceBook- did you see my "double yolkers" this morning?  My goodness.  What a surprise!  I always buy E-G_G_L_A_N_D_S   B_E_S_T  eggs as the best there are in size consistency AND most importantly, in taste.  There IS a definite difference.  Worth the extra money to buy them.  They are the ones that have had the occasional double yolkers in their cartons.  Just happens that way.  I did the dashes between letters  of the brand so as not to overtly advertise.  ðŸ˜œ

I had my DIL and my grandson here the longest  time with me on a visit here ever since he became Katie's Client as a just barely toddler, eating her foods, trying to play in her litterbox, and making a swimming pool out of her water dish. (It was a capacious one for certain!!) We were fortunate enough to capture videos.  Katie posted them back then on her blog!  I think she was trying to grow her business as an Attorney.  She did occasionally ask for assistance from the J-Cats when her Client got out of hand trying to do laundry! A girl can handle just so many cases after all and her Client tried to sue ME, for keeping desired items out of reach. 

That's my day.  Great eggs and some TROLLS! Got my hair shampooed and all that stuff.  Shined and cleaned (of course) the kitchen floor.  (dropped two eggs of the thing yesterday morning for pity sake.) 

K.  What have you been doing? 

BTW Blogger won't let me upload a picture.  Anyone else have that happen?
