No, the Light Didn't Dim


Confession time..I miss doing things for holidays such as decorating and making treats. Work sure takes a tole on me for physical but more mental. I have to say doing the tread mill been increasing my energy level and I been trying to eat less processed foods.
But this past week I have done anything. For some reason I got the back house trots



I might mention this is passing about Quenella got her marijuana plants take-en buy, I believe is the local sheriff department.
They didn't haul her off to jail or do anything yet to her.
Opinion time...Idaho will be one of the last state to legalize marijuana
For ages Quenelle and her late husband Micheal had a green house being there poultry coop. No one every talk about there pot crop growing behind the coop. But I believe a lot people had a good ideal what going on but never said anything.
Even Murphy and I talk about there pot crop but never saying where it was. Actual we talk more about her whole out look on it because they weren't selling and nothing could go wrong.



One afternoon the local law-enforcement came knocking on her door with warrant to search the place and new about the marijuana plants growing behind the coop in a green house
So she took them out there and they haul away 26 plants and she ask if she was going to get arrested or if her property going to taken. The officers told her “No” so they looked around and nothing else was there.


As the officers where there I guess one may call it “Duty of a pot raid” Quenelle in her hippie skirt took the young officers around and showed them her rock garden and flowers. See two of the cars left leaving I believe which where 2 officers of the law-enforcement seeing she wasn't a threat to them.
Actual she told them she was more up set about her diet then the pot. She was trouble with her digestion tract and finding food that she can eat and enjoy. They actual made a reference to her diet in there report
So they look around and didn't find anything well there wasn't much to find.
So they took the plants although I never knew the size of plants. Both Murphy and I was asked at different times if we want to see the plants. We always refused and pretend like we didn't know anything.


honest time..I thought it was someone disrespectful to ask us if we want to see the plants. if anyone at anytime would get busted we could have been someone who turn them in.
If anyone would ask how we knew where it was growing it was pretty easy to figure out one needed not to be bright bulb in group.


I don't believe she lost any sleep over it but not knowing if anything would every come of it. Statement time...Idaho is very narrow minded and change don't come easy. Idaho will be toward the tail in of legalizing marijuana
I know before her birthday she went into town and talk to the sheriff here. Wanting to know if they decided if they where going to do anything or not.
I really don't think they decided what they where going to do or not.
So she ask if there was going to be an arrest could they not do it on her daughters death.
She told then that behind the coop was down and she a sure them she wouldn't grow it until it was legal


She told me she keeping her word simple fact she wasn't going to push her luck and new the officers weren't fools


Note..this isn't a picture I took I found it in google image

photo hunr (dark)


When the days becomes shorter and there more hours of darkness. I like to doing popcorn balls; this recipe I got from my Aunt Eve.
2 2/3 cups of sugar
3 cubes of butter
1 cup of corn syrup
1 teaspoon of vanilla
½ teaspoon of salt
cook to 240 F (115.5 C)
for ruffly 24 cups of popped corn. But it wouldn't hurt to have a little extra popped corn on hand for this recipe.
It best to do this with two people. One pours the mixture on to the popped corn and the other mixes. Then grease your hands with a shorting like product.
This week theme for photo hunt was “dark” To see other finds and info please visit our hostess TN Chick


Every so often I like to send the boys some treats or care package. Well being so close to Halloween and nights are cooler. I'm send them new hoodies. 2 packages of candy bars so hopefully they'll pass them out for the trick-treaters. They live in more of populate area then I we do. And of course some popcorn balls. Plus $10.00 cash

A Call Out

Good news my brother in law Earl got married over last week end to Rita. Statement time...I wish them the best
I actual like his 2 ex wives.


My niece Quincy is having hand surgery. She had it posted on social net work face book. Confession time..I was a self center person she having surgery done to her hand. I complain about possible being stress out at work.
I even ask my hubby to shot me in the foot so I wouldn't have to deal with Donna because her praise and worship. But it actual went smoothy and I don't feel like I was drag though the ringer


My Aunt Fanny has pancreatic cancer
she will be 89 on 1st of November she was married to my Uncle Ned (Bossco)
she isn't going to do chemo. Statement time...I wonder about how we deal with the sick in our country well I could post and post on this subject.
I never new much about Aunt Fanny. Her and my uncle met though corresponding with each other. I know they been married to each other for years.
But as a child I never thought much of it. I'll call them my Uncle in-law and Aunt in-law. Those who becomes your Uncle and Aunt by marriage when they marry one of parents sibling.
All of my Uncle and Aunts spouses I met some of there relatives.
But I never saw or met any of my Aunt Fanny blood relationship. At her husband grave side service I saw her sister for the first time.
It dawn on me it that it was strange not to met any of her family.
I ask a little bit about Fanny family and made a comment about how I met my other Uncle and Aunt in-laws blood superlatives but not hers.
Well what I gather that Fanny parents wrote out will and left Fanny in charge years ago with no instruction how it was to be or not be divided up.
Well I guess nothing got divided up and caused hard ship and bitterness. That actual no one spoke to her or Uncle Bossco.

photo Hunt (Orange)


I could swear we did Orange for photo hunt. I had a picture of Union Pacific train engine.
But I'm always surprise how much orange is round me. One thing or should say two things I wouldn't show up to a Halloween party would be a pumpkin or a daffodil. Most orange or yellow color isn't all that becoming on me.
I took this picture when Murphy and I got back from a wood gathering trip. It took me by surprise the brightness of devil red berries. (Not poisoners) During the cooler months birds arrive by numbers and feast until what would be a drunken stooped.
Not many orange leaves around here. It seem actual most of them over kill with yellow. But I have to say the orange leaves on the tree adds a little charm.
But once the leaves leaves the birds have easier time eating these apples




It did come the book I order from Amazon Autobiography of Mark Twain at this point it looks like a book I surly injoy. It been said he was the first blogger.
But right now I'm trying to read Space-Between-Us
I think anything could be made in a blog. It claim that Justin Hall is the first blogger. To use the net. At first I didn't have a clue what to post. It took me a while to figure it out and I was posting all the time. Now I don't post all the time but trying to have balance in one life isn't easy. If it was I would have it figured out long ago.
It looks like Justin still does his blog
I can't tell about the other book I order. There going to be Christmas Present mainly to friends.

photo Hunt (Minture)


I don't know if I would have and eaiser time looking for a theme to do with “small” First thing came to my mind was a minture collection of different sort. Which I don't do.
“Huckleberry Varity Store” which use to be “dollar depot and more” but before that it use to be “Coast to Coast”
Well they been selling these colorful minnie tins of candy. I so far bought two of them the first one said “Sin” which had cinnomon flavor mints. The other day I bought the one says “bitch”
I have to say “I'm supriesed” that no one filled some type of complaint of these candy being sold. Idaho for the most part is very consevative, and pretty much slow for change.
If your interest in doing photo hunt or seeing others please click here

Yes it done. We got it painted and trim was hung today. It went easier then I thought.

Beans, Every Last One

When I was heading to bed last night I was afraid that I may wake up in the morning feeling in a funk mood. But I didn't I took some melatonin. I didn't wake up in a funk mood. Anyhow last Friday or so we where planning on going to the Gardenia center. The speaker today is doing it on Charkas. Ok this maybe strange or even a little radical they sing John Lennon Imagine





Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...



Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...



You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one



Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...



You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one



No they didn't sing Imagine this time but they haven't sung it for a while. I guess there no one song over done there.
But I did enjoy the service and got something out of the message, The inspiration was on how one gift keeps on giving. It remind me of the story of Jesus feeding the multiples.
The main speaker was on charkas. Statement time...I been having trouble with my heart charka. I been fighting a funk mood Every so often I find my self defending off this hopelessness and pissed off spirit. I'm thinking the world isn't going my way so I start to feel hopelessness and pissed off. Confession time...When hopelessness comes around it actaul puts quite a bit of negative energy and I become pissed at so many different things a lot to list.


I know in past post I mention I'm not a hamburger fan. But there a few foods I really find discusting such as bolgonia I was once told you need to buy bolgonia from a deli so I bought this $9.00 a pound stuff. It still taste like crap. No need to worry I only got slice. So the jingle of “My bolgonia has a first name crap”
I don't care much SPAM. My dad as I said before worked for railroad and the fright train would haul food comunties. The government would give food away such as cheese, flour, beans, spam and etc. So the guys would take home comunties when that was on fright train. As always my mom was looking for any chance to stretch a dollar and when the comunties would show up don't worry my mom had it broke down to last penny it would stretch out.
Statement time...Oh there was food from the comunties that was fantastic
If anyone wondering why I mention about hamburger. Murphy and I stop in at Super one and he picked up some ground beef. I ask him if he was planning to make casa des' and I had a look on my face of disgust. Which I believe we both of reacted.
honest time..I really don't mind burger if there plenty to add on burger and there lot from garden now

Photo Hunt (Stripes)


I know it isn't the best day to take a picture for the hunt. The theme for Saturday the 8th of October was Stripes
As part of our local Library There huge flag flying which is called veteran park
My dad side been here way before their was no United States even before the 13 colonies. So they seen the stars and stripes change a lot. Every since I was born there been 50 states. So there haven't been any states add to the union.



As we were out getting wood I look across the way and seen a line of larch turning gold. It look like a stripe among the green pines




Murphy and I went up to Myrtle creek area to get a load of firewood. Statement time...I been feeling a bit depress I been trying to see things more on positive light.
I know no one want to hear me grumble and complain about doing home/personal care. Confession time...I don't even want to hear my self
We had part of box of pairs which was starting to go bad and we empty the box of pairs out in the mountains. So we drove a short distance up the road and there was a “black bear” oh it look so cuddly. I have to say after seeing the bear sort of brought me out of my funk sour mood.
Well we got up to the cutting area and I spot the first dead larch which just died a short time ago which was green and heavy. So we did anther small larch and snag to finish out the load.
There something of being in the Mountain where there Alpine firs. It reminds me of “yule” wonderland. I find it tranquility watching the leaves and needles of larch fall so gracefully.
Yes I have to say being in the Mountain help my funk mood.

They Had The Ideal

It all seem like a scrambled mess. You know those game we now play on face book and forget about our blogs. I know some of you don't play and which is a good thing as Martha Stewart would say.
To be quite honest I couldn't hold on a conversation on any of my game I play on line. Couldn't tell on which level I'm at. How my crops doing, when things are to be served, Or how to get a mate. No I'm not looking for a real one.
Confession time...Some time I just need to escape into a make believe world which is free


I haven't motate a ship around in this life time. I was going to tell you I was one of those on Titanic but it sure didn't have much fate of good,
But I have to say it seem like I was moving a ocean liner driving my son Sawyer diesel F250. His cousin Sam and he move snow not last year but the year before.
I heard the pacific ocean was cooler and I we are in for wet winter. Which could mean rain or snow.
I sure don't want to make it habit driving his truck at $3.25 a gallon for diesel.
I was having trouble with the transmission on my Mazda it has plenty of miles on it. But I thought it would last a little longer then this but I let Sawyer use it and the transmission is pretty well shot.
But it seems that Sawyer is hard on rigs.


I'm taking part in “Lets talk about it” at our local library. We are now reading a book called Graceland
I haven't yet finish the book. But in one line sentence “It's about a teenage boy from Nigeria who watches American cinema and
that's his conclusion of how we live in United States” I'm actual enjoying the book.
One of my friend Susan when she was married her ex husband was in the Air Force station in Spain and the people of Spain had the ideal that Dallas the TV show represent the life style of most people in the United States.
I find this humorful.
. Statement time...I just want to slap these people up on side of my head Who believe that all Muslim are terrorist, all Homosexuals are pedophiles, Black people are all criminals, people who join or have concern about social justice don't believe in a Christen God (Ah Ha)


I almost complete the sit up, squats, and push up I been doing. Plus been doing the tread mill. I'm still working on gainiug more energy, weight lost, toning up, and better look on life

Beating It With a Different Stick


Haven't real gave a fair stick at my other client Murphette and the things that bothers me. confession time....I at time can say I tried doing the same thing more, then let say more then once but less then five times
“Insanity is doing the same thing and hoping for a different result”
Well not saying Murphette is a nut case or even close. But I see her doing the same thing over and over and wondering why she gets in same pickles.
The way she runs her house budget is a nightmare. I know her cash income is about $1125 a month and 3 people lives on that. Plus I thinks she get right around 300 in food stamps.
I don't know how many credit card she owes out. But get this she plays six dollars a week in power ball tickets. I recall ones she was broke and she gave me a credit card and went and bought her self lottery tickets. One knows the odds of collecting from a state own lottery.
Then her other gambling habit is “Pogo” oh I know it not much but on her budget what she owes out she really can't afford it.
I know she could get some of her bills lowered. She pays $50 a month on internet and there company that offers it at lower rate.
Plus she has satellite television.
I believe she confuses between a Need and Want
The her diet I find is just in most part “awful” a lot pre package foods and diet Pepsi. Her daughter and I gave her proof that aspartame is terrible in so many ways.
If her diet was much different she wouldn't be having such issues of health related.
But I have to say she did try to switch to regular Pepsi. But couldn't handle the taste. And went back on diet Pepsi.
Well I said “ You did try and at later date maybe we can try mixing them.
Quenella and I are going to pay she her tops membership of $26 a year and that will split in half. Quenella said she will pay she her dues of .50¢ a meeting.
She responsible for the weigh gain dues of a dime.
Is she over weight not bad she big bones and I have to say TOPS takes that inconsideration we all not built to be Barbies.
Feeling time...I feel like I'm a nag with her at times So with TOPS support she will be in more support and positive light hopefully she learns something about nutation


Oh hell it drives me nut when Murphette gets into her self pity act


Oh don't worry I find most of human race irradiating for the most part. Even my own relationship, friends and my self


My hubby so far only has one trait of my mom that drives me nuts. Oh I'll wait but if it seem like I'm picking on Donna and Murphette. I really do care but doing my jobs does take toll on a person. A least I don't have DOC he has my first client and dirty old man. Get this he tried to get medicaid to pay for the girls to do sexual favors. The guy lived well into his 100
One we call “Evil Pam”

It's A Relief


It may seem strange but I like slice cheese and ketchup together. To me it has comfort to it.


Well I took a week off from Donna. I was so burn out being her personal care giver. I have trouble with her queen bee attitude thats only happen when her prasie and worship ladies are about to make there day bu. Confession time...I have trouble with narrow minded people and Donna is very narrow minded I been with Donna for 3 years. At this she get 15 hours a week. Her review is I believe in May. Not meaning to brag but I might as well give the devil it do. I do a good job and I see her improving


So I been working on my mental health so I got back on the tread mill one of my I believe first cousin once remove is doing working on two hundred sit ups some time ago I was trying to do 100 push ups I notice there one for two hundred squats I never did the pretest. I let my self go. So It buttom for me.
I know physical exercise helps with the mood swings.


Well a friend of our which Murphy new before he stop by for a visit. Oh I better say who stop by “Fynn” at this time he lives in Priest River with his wife Judy who works for Bonner County. Fynn worked for the United States Forrest Service but is retired.
I have to say it was relieve to have conversation with someone who isn't so narrow minded on spiritual matters or anything else. He even read the Qur'an. I've seen and read a few passages from it and the few I read it was similar to bible.


We where planning to go on Sunday to visit Fynn and his wife. But it looks like things may change. Murphy is heading back to work. I guess there behind in pruning the trees at nursury.
If everything goes as plan Sawyer and some of his friends are coming up to the fall mud bog out on the Moyie River road.
But then I'm hoping that he and his friend can help me for a few moments
My sons is going to help me move her desk over and sit her up much better so she get her feet up at times. I have trouble with swallon ankles but nothing like hers.
Opinion time..If she ate better I know darn well she would feel much better. So Quenella and I are spilt her membership of $26 a year for TOPS and Quenella will pick up her dues of .50 ¢ a week. But Murphette is responsible for her .10¢ a pound which she gains.
I learn so much at TOPS
