NOT A WHOLE LOT GOING ON TODAY! MY TAIL BONE IS GETTING BETTER, I’M MOVING AROUND A LOT MORE AND EASIER! I NEVER KNEW SO MUCH COULD BE AFFECTED BY A BRUISED TAIL BONE! IT SEEM LIKE NO MATTER WHICH WAY OR HOW CAREFULLY I TRIED TO MOVE THERE WAS REAL BAD PAIN AT THE TAIL BONE!
MOM IS REALLY BEING KEPT BUSY WITH SHANNON! THE OTHER DAY SHANNON STEPPED IN HER BATH TUB AND THERE WAS SOME WATER ON THE BOTTOM, SHE SLIPPED AND HIT ON THE LEG WITH THE CAST STRETCHING THE TENDON THAT THEY PUT BACK IN PLACE! MOM HAD TO TAKE HER BACK TO THE DOCTOR TODAY AND HE PUT HER ON A PROGRAM OF LAYING HER LEG ON ICE FOR 30 MINUTES ONCE AN HOUR SO MOM SET HER UP WITH AN ICE CHEST FULL OF ICE AND I GUESS A PIECE OF PLASTIC TO PUT THE ICE IN ON THE BED SO SHE CAN SOAK IT! THIS HAS DELAYED HER GETTING BACK ON HER FOOT FOR ANOTHER 1-2 WEEKS! KYLIE THINKS NOTHING OF ASKING MOM TO HAUL HER ALL OVER TOWN BUT HAS BEEN TOLD TO RIDE THE “TAPS” (TEXOMA AREA PATIENT SERVICE) BUS OR FIND SOMEONE LOCAL TO TAKE HER!
I TALKED TO BILL MASON LAST NIGHT, HE’S DOING FINE AND IS GETTING READY FOR ANOTHER TRIP IN THE NEW MOTOR HOME! HE MET A NICE LADY AT LAUGHLIN LAST MONTH AND IS GOING TO ALBUQUERQUE TO SPEND A FEW DAYS AND THEN TAKE HER TO MEET HIS BROTH-IN-LAW IN SANTA FE AND THEN TO LAUGHLIN FOR A FEW DAYS! SHE LIVES BY HER SELF BUT HE’S TAKING THE MOTOR HOME INSTEAD OF STAYING IN HER HOUSE! IF IT WORKS OUT THEY’LL SET UP A TRIP TO SEE IF THEY CAN TRAVEL TOGETHER, HE SAID HE MAY COME HERE AGAIN! IF IT DOESN’T WORK OUT IT’S BETTER TO FIND OUT NOW THAN LATER! HE HAD TO GO AND STRAIGHTEN OUT THE RETIREMENT ACCOUNT HE HAS FROM WORKING AT THE STUDIOS AND L.A. COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM! LEONA HAD FORGED HER NAME TO IT AND HAD MADE A CLAM ON IT BUT THEY CALLED HIM AND ASKED HIM TO BRING A PROOF OF DIVORCE, SHE CLAIMED THEY WERE STILL MARRIED BUT HE HAD ALREADY CALLED AND GAVE THEM THE DATE THE DIVORCE WAS FINAL! NOW THEY WANT TO MAKE A COPY OF THE FINAL DECREE AND PUT IT IN HIS FILE! HE DID THAT THIS PAST MONDAY! BOY THAT GAL WON’T STOP, HER MOTHER DIED A WHILE BACK AND SHE’S TRYING TO CHEAT HER SISTER OUT OF THE PROPERTY HER FOLKS HAD IN IOWA! IT’S IN THE DOWNTOWN AREA OF A CITY I DON’T REMEMBER THE NAME OF IT! BUT IT’S GOT TO BE VALUABLE!
I STILL HAVEN’T GOT MY AMPLIFIED PHONE FROM THE VA THEY SAY IT’S BEEN ORDERED! I’M GOING TO BE OVER THERE ON THE 2ND OF OCTOBER AND WILL MAKE IT A POINT TO FIND OUT IF IT’S BEING SHIPPED “ON A SLOW BOAT FROM CHINA” OR WHAT? I’M GOING TO ASK IF I SHOULD GO AHEAD AND BUY ONE MYSELF AND SEND THE BILL TO THE VA? THAT MIGHT SHAKE THINGS UP AND GET SOME ACTION STARTED!
TIM AND ELYSE ARE PUTTING THEIR HOUSE ON THE MARKET AND GOING BACK TO APARTMENT LIVING, IT’S JUST TOO MUCH WORK TO KEEP IT UP WITH THE TIME TIMS HAVING TO PUT IN AT THE AMERICAN HEART ASSOCIATION AND ELYSE WITH HER NEW JOB THE APARTMENT IS A MUCH BETTER WAY! THEY’RE LOOKING FOR ONE IN THE SAME SCHOOL DISTRICT THEY’RE IN NOW SO THE MOVE DOESN’T UPSET THE KIDS TOO MUCH! OWNING A HOME IS A NICE THING BUT THE UP KEEP WOULD BE OK IF BOTH WORKED 8 HRS. A DAY 5 DAYS, OR JUST TIM WORKED AND ELYSE STAYED HOME WITH THE KIDS AND TOOK CARE OF THE HOUSE BUT WE ALL KNOW THAT’S NOT THE WAY IT IS ANYMORE! IT TAKES TWO GOOD PAY CHECKS TO JUST SURVIVE WITH A FEW NICE THINGS AND MAYBE A VACATION EVERY TWO YEARS OR SO!
JOKE
KIDS IN SCHOOL FIRST DAY! TEACHER SAYS SHE WANTS THEM TO STAND ONE AT A TIME AND GIVE THEIR NAME AND TELL WHAT THEIR FATHER DOES FOR A LIVING! FIRST LITTLE GIRL STANDS AND SAYS HER NAME IS SALLY AND HER FATHER IS A POLICEMAN! VERY GOOD; NEXT LITTLE BOY STANDS AND SAYS HIS NAME IS TOMMY AND HIS FATHER’S A MAILMAN! VERY GOOD SAYS THE TEACHER; NEXT LITTLE GIRL STANDS AND SAYS HER NAME IS JUDY AND HER FATHER IS A TRUCK DRIVER! VERY GOOD SAYS THE TEACHER; THE NEXT LITTLE BOY STANDS AND SAYS HIS NAME IS SNOT NOSE BUT BEFORE HE CAN TELL WHAT HIS FATHER DOES THE TEACHER SAYS, NO WHAT’S YOUR REAL FIRST NAME SON, SNOT NOSE HE ANSWERS! THE TEACHER TAKES HIM BY THE ARM AND TELLS HIM TO GO DOWN TO THE PRINCIPALS OFFICE AND BRING BACK A NOTE WITH HIS REAL FIRST NAME ON IT! AS HE PASSES THE KID IN THE FRONT SEAT BY THE DOOR HE GRABS HIM AND SAYS COME ON SHIT HEAD SHE AIN’T NEVER GONNA TO BELIEVE YOU.
THAT’S “30” FOR THIS ISSUE.
