HOWARD’S DAILY CHRONICLE
NUMBER 24 VOL 13
SUNDAY AUGUST 24TH 2008
WEATHER; WARM, LOW HUMIDITY, 71/91 DEGREES
I SPENT MY 2ND NIGHT ON THE SPECIAL PILLOW THE PHYSICAL THERSPIST ORDERED FOR ME FROM THE VA! IT’S TOO EARLY TO REALLY KNOW IF THE THINGS I’M FEELING ARE BECAUSE OF IT OR BECAUSE I WANT IT TO HELP ME WITH MY SLEEP APNEA! THIS IS THE SECOND NIGHT IN A ROW THAT LILLIAN HASN’T HAD TO POKE ME TO ROLL OVER BECAUSE I’M KEEPING HER AWAKE WITH MY NOISY BREATHING! LAST NIGHT IT TOOK ME A WHILE TO GO TO SLEEP! I WAS SO RESTLESS I COULDN’T FIND A COMFORTABLE SPOT ON THE PILLOW! I TRIED MOVING ALL THE WAY UP TO THE TOP AND ENDED UP SLIDING DOWN SO I JUST STAYED DOWN AT THE BOTTOM AND FINALLY FELL ASLEEP! I DIDN’T WAKE UP TILL 8:30 AM AND ROLLED OUT OF BED AND SAT ON THE EDGE OF THE BED AND DID THE EXERSIZES THE PHYSICAL THERAPIST GAVE ME TO DO FOR MY STIFF NECK AND SHOULDERS!
I SPENT MOST OF THE DAY OUT ON THE DECK WATCHING THE HUMMING BIRDS DO THEIR THING, FLYING ALL AROUND AND INSIDE OF THE DECK COVER AND THEY’RE REALLY GIVING THE TWO FEEDERS HELL! WE HAD THREE BUT TO DAY I NOTICED A FOURTH ONE HAS SHOWED UP BUT, THE RUBY THROATED ONE IS STILL THE BOSS! HE/SHE WILL CHASE ANY OF THE OTHERS THAT TRY TO GET SOLUTION FROM THE FEEDERS! IT WILL CHASE ONE AND THEN ANOTHER ONE SNEAKS IN ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE FEEDER AND TAKES A BILL FULL OF SOLUTION THEN FLYS AWAY! IT’S REALLY KIND OF COMICAL TO WATCH THEM! BUT THAT RUBY THROATED ONE IS A DAMN GOOD GOAL TENDER! IF I WAS TO COUNT HOW MANY TIME IT CHASES THE OTHERS AWAY BEFORE THEY CAN GET ANY SOLUTION I’D PROBABLY HAVE TO GIVE IT A 99%! I DON’T KNOW HOW LONG THEY CAN GO WITHOUT GETTING SOME NURISHMENT FROM THE FEEDERS!
GARY AND CHARLEEN LATINIS STOPPED BY AFTER 5:00 MASS! WE VISITED AND WATCHED THE START OF THE NASCAR RACE FROM BRISTOL, TN.! THEY LEFT ABOUT AN HOUR LATER!
MOM AND I WATCHED A LITTLE MORE OF IT THEN SHE WENT IN ON HER COMPUTER, TIM TOLD HER SHE SHOULD DO A BLOG ON COOKING WHICH SHE STARTED TODAY! I READ IT AND I THINK IT’S GOING TO BE INTERESTING SO IF YOUR INTERESTED HERE’S THE BLOG ADDRESS; http://grandma-in-the-kitchen.blogspot.com/
I WATCHED TILL THE END OF THE RACE! KYLE BUSCH HAD LED FOR 409 OF THE 500 THEN CARL EDWARDS PASSED HIM ON THE 480TH LAP AND WENT ON TO WIN! KYLE BEING THE SORE LOOSER HE IS TRIED AFTER THEY CROSSED THE FINISH LINE TO SPIN EDWARDS OUT AND CARL SPUN HIM OUT BY DRIVING INTO THE RIGHT SIDE OF HIS CAR! OF COURSE THIS ADDED INSULT TO INJURY! IT’S GOING TO BE INTERESTING TO SEE WHAT NASCAR HAS TO SAY ABOUT THIS? SINCE KYLE INSTIGATED THE INCIDENT AND CARLS CAR WAS NOCKED OUT OF CONTROL I DOUBT IF THEY’LL DO ANYTHING TO HIM BUT THEY COULD TAKE A BUNCH OF POINTS AWAY FROM KYLE MAYBE COSTING HIM THE CHAMPIONSHIP! WE’LL SEE?
WANNA PLAY HOUSE?
A LITTLE GIRL AND A LITTLE BOY WERE AT DAYCARE. THE GIRL APPROACHED THE BOY AND SAID, "HEY JOHNNY, WANNA PLAY HOUSE?"
HE SAID, "SURE! WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO?"
THE GIRL REPLIED, "I WANT YOU TO COMMUNICATE."
HE SAID TO HER, "THAT WORD IS TOO BIG. I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IT MEANS."
THE LITTLE GIRL SMIRKED AND SAID "PERFECT. YOU CAN BE THE HUSBAND!"
THAT’S “30” FOR THIS ISSUE
