Mugabe sure is an asshat, isn't he?


I'm still recovering from the loss of the Taurus, silly shallow me. I have a friend who lives near a big dealership in Freeport, IL, and looking at their website...cars are sure a lot more reasonable out there. Ramey's website is down, I'll go there this week to have a look around anyway.

I'll be going to Florida(2,000 miles up the a-hole of the universe)again in early May. My mother fell and broke her hip in late January, and had surgery, and my sister and I are doing rotations in and out of there, to make sure she gets good care. Because if you're elderly, and in Florida...all you get is assembly line medicine(funny how the anti-national health people use this kind of thing as a reason to not go national health, as if it could get any worse..my friends in Canada and Europe don't have this problem) unless you have someone there to advocate for you. Already..her surgical staples were left in place a week longer than they should have been, and caused an infection, and more than one month(almost two!) after surgery...her right leg is swollen and bruised, still. She's getting physical therapy 5 days a week, but still cannot put much weight on her right leg. And the surgeon wants her to come to his office for a followup. Grrrrrrrrrrr.

Bitch gonna knock them out. And go to Webster's Flea Market.
We had some very nice thunderstorms come through here all afternoon. Scary lightning, lots of thunder. A balmy 60 degrees. I sent it off to the east, so...enjoy, my east coast friends! There was one that was a bit violent, with marble sized hail and high winds. So...burning is off for now, as this thunderstormy pattern is supposed to last the next 5 days or so. Burn or no burn..I'm glad it's spring-like. A tufted titmouse is sitting really high in the branches of the silver maple in my back yard singing really loudly. Scroll down a bit to hear this guy. Jeez...he woke me up from a sound sleep.
And Mugabe IS an asshat.
23 lbs. lost so far. I've switched to pilates, step and keeping up with my walking, though I'm jogging a bit, too. And I quit smoking and drinking. I'm really crabby, and half mad with the lack of my favourite substances.
