Nope. Been missing the blizzards, thank goodness.

These days I find myself driving back and forth from Washington to California. I begin another round of glorious hometime tomorrow. This round I am going to Oregon to see my brother, favorite sister-in-law, and my dear old grand dad. And I'm not talking about the whiskey, either.

The babe with my avatar is just a Spanish MySpace girl. She meant nothing to me so you don't have to be jealous.

What mailboxes are being removed? Residential or public? I know public mailboxes are removed if the president comes to town to prevent bad people from leaving bad things in them.

Have you ever eaten the barramundi fish? My mother prepared this excellent fish once and I liked it better than salmon. It was so good that it didn't require any of the usual fish condiments like salt or lemon juice.

This wonderful fish is native to northern Australia and Asia. I would like to see the barramundi introduced to North America.

Mel Tillis is in a genre of music that I rarely listen to...but this post reminded me it has been a long time since I had listened to our Mental Home cd...gothic music...
That was a refreshing blast from my past! Lol!

Hey, Dazzy! How has it been going with you?
Did you experience any of those 115mph winds I glimpsed a news headline about?
The BF has been out, away from the house..so I only have my phone to access any news...and if I attempt to open an article from a headline, my phone reboots itself...so I only read headlines...unless BF is home to provide the iPad with WiFi...
THEN, I can open whatever I want to...but am usually too busy, by then, to even think about news...even when Hope is NOT here!

Speaking of my temperamental phone...(I guess it's obvious I didn't get that upgraded phone I had hoped for, huh?)...I had spent 15 minutes, typing a post about Hope, in this thread...and the BF called me...
All the words it had taken me so long to coax, correctly, from my phone, had....disappeared...
*sigh*
NOW, I can't even remember what I had written...
....Bragging about Hope...that's all I remember right now! Lol!

A LOT has been going on...
Mostly, we are having a "snow event," aka, Winter Weather, in our side of the state.
If we live further south, I could have called it "heavy snowfall,"...but, even though all models predicted that we would see snowfall accumulations of 2 inches per hour, that has not occurred...at least, not yet!
In Colorado Springs, this evening, they were getting that heavy snowfall...while most of our snow has been tiny, fine flakes that doesn't stack up fast...nor does it make snowmen...
It's great to ski on! ...which I do not do...(on PURPOSE, anyway! Lol!)
And its great at messing up the commute to town and back!
We may still see 15 inches by Wednesday...
Hope is in town, with her parents, for an extended weekend...much to my relief...just in case we have some power outages and we are left in the dark, in the cold...with a broken (yes, broken, AGAIN!) car...while BF is out, plowing and making money.
Sarah has been through a lot of adverse conditions with us, but, she usually rolls with the punches pretty well...
Hope would voice her displeasure...possibly not in the calmest way...and she doesn't sit/stand/lay still long enough to stay warm under a blanket...so, I would have to put her "magic pants" on her....
Her "magic pants" are like MY "magic pants"...which are snow bibs...that I slip over my jeans and they "magically keep my legs warm!"...so I dubbed them my "magic pants"...prompting Hope to name her's the same.)
I'm just more comfortable knowing that she is in her mom n dad's warm and cozy...and well lit...house...
Juuuuussttt in case!

The BF, Sarah and I attended The Indian's 41st birthday party the other evening...
His lady-friend's 6 year old son has Autism...and her 5 year old daughter shows signs of something that hasn't been diagnosed yet...plus the Indian's 4 daughters were there.
It was NOISY!
The Indian's kids gathered around Sarah, who had had a seizure earlier and was back and forth on being awake and being asleep,...and the oldest daughter sat next to Sarah and let Sarah fall asleep on her shoulder!
It was a very sweet moment!
It was nice to get away from the house and actually ENJOY myself for a few minutes!

Now we are kinda cabin-bound till the sun comes out for a bit on Thursday...but a chance for more snow on Friday...before we have a sunny weekend in store...
Maybe BF can fix broken car...passenger front spring rusted through and broke!
(The joys and unexpected expense of buying a used car! But, we really, really like the car...so BF hopes he can obtain said spring at the junkyard for cheap....once the snow melts some.

Well, folks...I gotta give my thumbs a break...
BF should be back from the first wave of plowing real soon....so I better start some food!
Maybe I'll get to come back later....
I hope everybody is doing well! ...talk at ya, again, soon! !

The best thing that has come out of Nashville recently was me when I left there in April of last year.

Don't ask me what it is, but for some reason I can only handle country music if it is played live.

I must confess that I know not a darn thing about any shopping malls that have been shut down in Colorado.

However, I have made use of many an abandoned parking lot in the South to either sleep or to make a run inside a Zaxby's.

The "fake" Colonel Sanders is none other than former Saturday Night Live regular, comedian and writer Norm McDonald. I once visited a KFC restaurant while in Nashville and some 18 or 19 year girl there began to beg me for money as her lazy boyfriend sat and watched without saying a word.

I found this situation to be all too suspicious and so I didn't give her a dime.

There was a huge shopping mall called Cinerella City, in Englewood, that closed several years ago...
Then Villa Italia, in Lakewood, closed a few years later.
These were favorite destinations, for me, to just walk around and watch people.
There are a few malls left near Denver...
There is the Flatirons Mall, the Southwest Plaza, and Colorado Mills malls come easiest to my failing memory.
I haven't stepped foot into a mall in over 5 years...lack of cash and a waning desire to walk among the masses has kept me away! Lol!

Well, we got our snow!
It took it's dear, sweet time getting here...but it finally came!
I don't know how many inches we got....but I'll attempt to add a couple photos before I leave.
We saw mostly cloudy skies, today, but the sun did attempt, unseccessfully, to burn a hole through the clouds for a few minutes.
It finally stopped flurrying just before the sun set.

The house has been abnormally quiet with Hope away...
Sarah, having had a seizure on Saturday, still seems a bit "out of it" and extra sleepy...refusing to swallow food in her mouth at meals and not drinking much.
Her appetite has diminished to little more than a bird eats...partly because her teeth are so bad, but partly because of something we haven't identified yet...
Yes, her teeth are bad, but she will still eat potato chips and dry cereal...but if I give her some nice, soft food....say, noodles in sauce...she will hold the bite in her mouth until I use her spoon to push the food far back in her mouth....juuust before the gag reflex...and then, usually, she will swallow the food.
I had to do that for every bite of macaroni and cheese she ate ate dinner time!
The Indian posed a query...asking if she might be tested for a hiatal hernia...a hernia at the end of the swallowing tube...making swallowing painful.
She has NOT been tested for such...but it will be on the top of my list of things to discuss with her doctor!
I need the doctor to provide us with a prescription for a food supplement, such as Ensure, to boost Sarah's calorie intake...for she is rapidly losing weight and her activity level is nearly down to nil.
I'm kinda worried about her..
I think she is giving up her will to continue on...and I fear I will go to wake her for her pills one day and she will have slipped away.
No mother wants to think that of her child...but, in so many ways, it would be a blessing....mostly for her, but, also for me....cuz I am helplessly watching her regress and deteriorate before my eyes.
I consider placing Sarah in a nursing home every so often...feeling like I am failing her and that she might get more proper dental care...but I (and Sarah's sister) think that Sarah wouldn't last long after leaving home...where we know what her sounds mean and know what she expects (most of the time).
Being cooped up, together, during the cold winter, makes for difficult times for me...and with Hope being away, I have little distraction from Sarah...and things start weighing heavy on my mind.
Lately, I have been thinking about how I didn't want to have a baby when I got pregnant with Sarah...
...how Sarah's father had taken advantage of me while I was exhaustedly sleeping after having worked a double shift as a waitress...
...how I had planned to terminate the pregnancy, but her father threatened to kill me if I "killed his baby!"
...how, for 33 years, I have been Sarah's (nearly) sole caregiver...her father has only seen her once in the past 5 years...and extended family has forgotten we exist!
Yet, I try, every day, to do the best I can, to do what's right for Sarah.
I must admit that it isn't very rewarding...knowing that Sarah's condition will never improve...knowing that she is forever trapped in a failing body with a broken brain...that all I can do is try to keep her fed and clean, and try to present her with SOME kind of quality of life...
And to love her.
Some days it just doesn't feel like I can do enough for her...and I feel like a failure.
That's why wintertime is tough on me...I can't just go outside and not look at, or not hear her for a while!
I'm stuck inside this tiny house...constantly reminded of what I will never be able to do...
Make Sarah better!
....Oh well....at least I got you folk to vent to and cry on your virtual shoulder once in a while!
It helps, sometimes, just to write the words down...' feels like I get it out of my system for a minute!
Thanks for "listening!" !

Hope may be back tomorrow...today...(Wednesday)...
I'm pretty sure that the roads will be clear enough for her mom to drive on...
We are expecting another chance for snow on Thursday, so, if she doesn't come home later today, I may not see her till the weekend!
I really miss Hope when she is gone!
And I think she misses me, too...cuz her mom tells me that Hope worries about me, saying that "Gramma be sad when I'm not there...but she will be okay!"
I tell her, repeatedly, that I miss her when she is gone, but that I am happiest when she is happy and having fun, so she should have as much fun as she can, so I won't be sad....she says "Okay!"
Hope has begun the "Why?" phase of her life...
Hope: "What are you doing?"
Me: Washing dishes."
Hope: "Why?"
Me: "So the dishes won't be dirty."
Hope: "Why?"
Me: "So we can eat off clean dishes."
Hope: "Why?"
Me: "Because we could get sick if we ate off dirty dishes."
Hope: "Why?"
Me: "Because dirty dishes have germs on them."
Hope: "Why?"
Me: "Because, when some food is left on the plate, it spoils and grows germs."
Hope: "Why?"
Me: "Because that's what happens when food is not eaten and kept in the fridge."
Hope: "Why?"
Me: "Ya know, Hope...I'm not really sure...It's just the way thing work! I don't really know why!"
Hope: "Why?"
Me: "Because Gramma isn't always smart!"
Hope: "You are smart, Gramma!"
Me: "Oh, thank you, Hope, for thinking I'm smart!...now, can we play a different game?"
Hope: "Okay! You wanna make me a monkey out of playdoh! (Said as a statement, not a request)"
Me: "But, I am washing dishes right now! My hands are wet!"
Hope: "PLEEAASE?"
Me: "Oh...alright...one monkey!"
...at which time I will dry my hands and proceed to make a monkey...and a bed...and a table...and a chair...and a plate and a fork and some fruit and an egg...
And the dishwater is always cold by the time I get back to it! Lol!

Well, folks!
I think I should be asleep about now!
I have some housework that still hasn't gotten done, that I want to get done before Hope returns...and, unless I stay up all night and keep the BF awake with my cleaning noises, I need to get up early and clean the bathroom, vacuum Sarah's and Hope's floors and hand-wash a load of laundry.
I will do all but the vacuuming before Sarah wakes up...usually around noon...
So...I had better get myself to bed, now!

I hope everybody is doing well and having a good week!
I'll be talking to ya, again, when I can! & !

Oh, Hell's Bells!....I totally forgot to post pics!
Now I can't do it till the BF gets home with the WiFi!

Ya know, Diana, that's a cool idea...having user's-choice-music playing in the background!
Like, when people visited a profile page, they would hear the music chosen by the profile person....and, maybe users could collect gold to pay for the privilege of choosing the main site's music for an hour or something....
I think using music, not just writing about it, would make for an awesome and refreshing difference!
Sadly, I know nothing about how to make, run or maintain a new avi site...
I'm lucky to know how to ACCESS one! Lmao!

I'll be back, later, to post those pics...
Hope will be on her way home soon...I gotta get dressed still! Lol!
Happy Humpday, All! !

I would like to see the owners of Mocospace sell it to game designers and create a new avatar site .How many people even go on Mocospace anymore .A cool avatar site to that will attract several million.
