I'm Smiling...On Yeah!

You are going to have to use your imagination now....Imagine a big picture of me SMILING! That is what I do most days now. I think, I am going to do this when I retire! I am not going to this when I retire!

I will do WHATEVER I want! Yipppeeee!!!!!

Social Security

To the anonymous commenter that was meant for my Social Security post. I am not a lazy, censored "person who rhythms with witch". I have worked for over 40 years and paid in many dollars with each paycheck, and I will not allow myself to feel like you would like me to. And, just think, I may have taken care of your family, as I am a nurse......

I dare you...comment again. I will just delete it!!!!!

Work and Social Security

Yesterday I worked the last night shift of my nursing career. They just had to get one more out of me!

I also applied for Social Security. Big day in the life of person. Social Security helped me when my father
died when I was five years old. Now it will do it again.

David, My baby doll...

This is a picture of Lily with one of my first baby dolls, David. I got him when I was 6 years old, so he is 57 years old. I loved to dress him and put him in his bassinet. I have saved him all these years for a daughter, or in reality, granddaughter. He was named after my cousin because he looked exactly like him when he cried. I need to bring him back out because she does not remember playing with him. It is strange how their first years of memory just drop off.


I find I am missing Bess more than I thought I would. It was love at first sight. I walked into Brian and Shannon's house and she ran to me like a bullet. Once we were at home, she was perpetual motion. Not good in a pup with heart worms. She is about to start on her treatments. I know she will find someone else to love her.

Birthdays and Bess

We celebrated a Family Birthday for Forrest, Amy, and myself at Kevin and Amy's. We had tuna melts! Yum is all I can say. I did not think I would like them but, oh my, they were good. Brian made baked beans, and Amy made a tomato avocado salad that was delish. Shannon made a Harry Potter cake and Kevin made strawberry sorbet. It was all so tasty!





Brian and Shannon have been thinking about another dog now that ChiChi is alone....they had two rescue dachshunds come for a visit. I was wanting to see them, so I got dressed and decided to go by on the way to the grocery. Before I could leave, Shannon called for me to come see them.....Well, I fell in love with Bess.....as you can see she is quite the curious one. I am having to get the kids toys out of her mouth more than once....She has heart worms and will begin her treatment soon. I have her in the crate for now because she is a jumper and a climber already.....
