Bang Bang.

Idaho legislation season got over. Not sure if this made nation news or not. Idaho became a state as of July 1st one can openly carry a fire arm.
 For someone who lives in Idaho, with progressive ideal I'm not sure how I honestly feel about.

I have more question then answer at this time. I wasn't sure if I was more FEARFUL  and or INTIMIDATE about this new law here in Idaho.
When the 1st of July comes around you can carry a firearm on you. Sure certain people won't be able to get them but we all know, things fall though the cracks of life.
Murphy and I thought of not supporting a store that a allowed guns in the store. But I don't see any store doing this simple because most people here wouldn't shop at a store that posted “No guns allowed”
So in that case we would have to drive to Montana or Washington shop. Both states have no sale tax on food.
But we decided if either one of us got shot. We would hold the store liable for any medical or un do stress.
For letting guns in the store.
But I real don't expect to be shot.
So I will leave two links about our new gun laws, LINK ONE and LINK TWO

This month is coming to end. I try to share my blog with three social medias. To many of them out there.
Not sound self center but I blog for my self. In hope I don't come across as Dubov. So in April I'll try to connect my blog up with BLOGGER CORNERWE BLOG those are connect with my facebook. groups. 
Then also on my TWITTER account.

Still working on cleaning the place on the bench. Well a red fire was up rooted and fell across the road. So Murphy and I cut it up. Got one fence post, 11 foot. Then a few piece of fire wood.
Haul some brush to the dump.
One thing I want to is take a photo of Murphy grandfather old farm equipment. But my card once again stop working. His grandparents came year before my grandparents did.
His came in 1936 and mine 1937. Both from Nebraska
I would like to keep the old farm equipment in family. Bart has an interest in it.

 Not sure exactly how many of our garden fence post needs re-placing. I put in one the other day.

 Even had a chance to work on some craft items. Got a ball of brown cotton fabric cut in 2 inch strips and rolled.
I threaded my sewing machine with brown. Figure it would be simpler if I got one basic color ready at a time.
Finished up hunter smile and still need to high lighted. So it looks more life like.


Seeing more flowers.

It's That Green Tole With Purple Hair

Things around here last few weeks been wampus. The other day my card that goes into my camera decided to stop working. So Walmart or Staples didn't carry them any more. So I went on Amazon and order one.
Now my card work.
Yesterday I posted about how I put two items in that special place. That I could find it and now I don't even recall that special place.

I got though all of my sheets and blankets. Today only two sheets went out to shed/barn. I thought I would had more to be place in my yard sale. But only came up with two complete sets that wouldn't fit on either one of our beds, full size sheets.
Ended up with quite a few good top sheets. Not sure what will be done with them. But I thought of making rag rugs. I even used sheets to make clothing with.

Today I met my friend Quenella at Under the Sun for coffee and I had some type of chocolate with I believe was hot cinnamon candy in it. Sure was darn good.
As I notice when I was drinking my coffee I notice I lost a tooth filling.
After that I stop and got my up coming Grand daughter POCKET DIAPERS and washable liners.

I have a cleaning at ten in the morning on the 31st over at the clinic. So I call and they can have someone look at that tooth.
We have a wonderful clinic here in Bonners Ferry. On a sliding scale. Not sure were the dentist start. But the last I heard there medical started at $35 for an office call.
Right now I have our state version of "affordable care act" not very affordable for us.

Weigh in went ok. Since I sort of lightly messed up on Easter dinner. Down a half pound. Breakfast was a full graham cracker and peach yogurt. Lunch when I got home was some radishes, grapes, and half of cheese and ham sandwich.
For a mid day snack I had two graham crackers with peanut butter on it.
Dinner not sure what we will all have. There left over chicken wings in fridge. Confession time...I rather eat my meat cold. Then warm.

That Special Place

 Some time ago we ended up with an extra gear shift knob for my car. We as in Murphy and I put up in that special place, that we would remember where we put it.
When Carrie was staying with us. I let her use our twin bed which is in my craft room. I put up my container of brushes.

Now we can't find the shiftier knob or my container that held my brushes.

 Murphy and I went out on the bench property and took the old transmission to dump. And few heavier items.
Then we took a load home. Some of it will be yard sale and others not. I know we will keep the concrete peers.
 On the way home we stop at court house to take care of county business. Got tabs for our pick up. Now Idaho charges $53.75.
Took the paper work in for to get our home property taxes lowered. Look like we're getting about $450 off of our tax bill.

   Even had a little time to go though some more bedding. There ended up being an arm full that I took out to shed/barn. That could be used to cover the garden during early fall.
There not worth yard sale or taking to a thrift store.
But still pull out the sheets from our linen closet, large boxes and vacuum sealer bag. Try to match up some set.
What doesn't match up or fit any of our beds, can be taken to the thrift store, yard sale, or possible made into rag rug.  

I did add anther blanket to the yard sale pile in the basement. I'm pretty much done going though under the stairs. I believe there a few smaller boxes to go though. What I briefly saw I don't believe much is worth putting in yard sale. But never know what one will buy.

Did mange to find a brush or three. Not size I need but mange to do some painting on the hunter smile boots.
It mixer of colors, also it would be a good shade for manure.

Weigh in with my local T.O.P.S group. I try to guess how the result will be. Usual I'm wrong.

Don't Want To Be Involved


Had a few ideal what I might want to post this Easter. As usual we went over to Faith and Heniz. One thing I thought of posting about EASTER MONDAY or possible something on ATHEIST EASTER. Which my husband believes or leans to.
Well before I get to my eating. Today over acting drama is why I want to stay a hell away from Christianity.
No one every said Teenagers was easy, including my self.
Well Qunicy has four teenagers.
So today her daughter who is 16 showed up with her boy friend who is 19. Well Gissele Quincy younger sister.
Start on him about being a pedifile. Never went out and saw what was going on. But you could here plenty of yelling and name calling.
Well there 3 years a part.
There plenty to say about Gissele her mom had plenty of trouble with her.
Gissele is a child raising expert. She had one son Chip who she abandon. She took a few classes and read a few books on psychology.
Now she on the high ground and so moral. I could use a few other term, but these term want to make me vomit.

My eating plan was 7 and 3. 7 items at the main meat and 3 piece of dessert. Well as always I never or forget to plan out the before meal time. Usual a tray of veggies, cracker, and cheese with dip.
Well I decided to go with 6 items at main meal.
Ham and Lamb was offered and had slice of lamb. 2 dinner rolls and one of them I had sorghum syrup. A nice big salad with very little dressing, potato salad, and devil egg.
Well as for the dessert I was hoping that one of the kids would have a peep. I wish they never sold them in six pack. One is enough for me.
I thought I would only have 3 piece of desert. I went over slightly but I know it would fit in half cup measurement and have plenty of room left.

Yesterday Sawyer and Betty was up. She has some time off and she is going to fly with her friend Teresa to Hawaii. Teresa is heading over to New Zealand on a work vista.
No Grand child yet. The due date is today. But baby comes when they want to.
A few more flowers are blooming.

Not Sure When Or What

Still waiting for the call on my car. At this point I will just go in the morning and picked up.
Any how Murphy put the engine lift in pick up. Have few things to put in back of pick up. From the North Bench property.
One and old transmission which for some reason Sawyer got and it going to the dump.
Plus there a couple tractor pieces that will be brought home. Possible even yard sale.

After taking care of the possible car and bench property. I'm taking my client Liz to "Sears" by Sandpoint. Her ex boy friend Earl bought her a small apartment Washing Machine.
Not long ago she just put up an umbrella clothes line.
I work for Liz tomorrow which is Friday.
Opinion time...playing with an ex "doesn't matter the size. Usual there is an "ex" for a reason.

Since I'm not positive what the car will cost. I budget out $300 for it. Paid a few other bills.
My long distant $44.00 there billing cycle is different. Or to honest here I never have actual looked all to the billing period. 
They don't charge late fee's or interest. We use CREDO I like the cause they support.
My other is $30.04 for my natural gas. Which seems a little high the only thing here is gas is my dryer and stove/oven.
And the last check I wrote was for $8.18 something Medicare wouldn't pick up for Murphy Colonoscopy.

Had to leave..Editor note...return with car. Labor and parts for my car ran $246.16

Got my first baby crochet cap done. It came out pretty good but there always room for improvements.
It seem so small but I have to remind my self how small a new born baby head is.

Did mange to get in a short walk today. And even a few stretching exercise.  
Not sure if I need to post all I ate. I believe I posted about the ham my hubby bought.
So for two meals I had ham sandwich. Each a little different.
I suffer from EDEMA although not as bad what in the picture from the link.
Actual by the terms in grading I would classify my self as a weak "A" not all that often my feet swells.
My ankle tend to in large though the day.
If I stay away from salt. I don't swell as much. Guess what ham has, salt.

When I take Liz over to get her washing machine. I want to stop in at Staples and pick up card for my camera. And one of those card thing that you put your photos on. 
I never can remember technology term. Confession time...I real don't care what it all called.

Not To Much

Last night I went to the democrat caucus and caucus for Bernie Sanders. There wasn't quite 200 people there and he receive almost 84% of the votes there.
I know Sanders received 17 delegates and Clinton 5. I haven't been able to find on net how other counties voted.
 Well I'm dis-pointed in how my REPRESENTATIVE (dist one) is voting.
Enough politics for today and hopeful for a little until I go off on hizzy fit.

Had set a brakes for my car. When we bought the car the people had a set brakes a full set and since they didn't get anther Accura.
What actual happen some how my calibers froze up and need replacing.
Some people who stuck dark ages might not consider my husband a mans, man.
He find mechanical work not enjoyable. 

We're both dyslexic. Mine in speech and sounds. He was has trouble with direction of left and right.

Since we took our car to mechanic on the north side. We went up to our property to haul some items to the dump and bricks home.
I notice when Murphy picked up an old chicken feeder. His brother Earl once raised chicken.
The only thing I said was "As long as we never have over 8 berries of any type, I won't buy any chickens"
I guess at one time his parents had like 200 chickens.

Even had a chance to go though the blankets under our stair well.
Decided on four for each of the queen beds. So I end up with four blankets in yard sale pile. 
Also notice in boxes of bedding I have plenty of sheets and what is in the linen closet, that needs to go though.
Haven't decided how many set of sheets I need. Also there some bed covering such as spreads and how many of them one needs.

I been keeping my eating in check. I eat meat so today in meat line I had. Sausage patties, ham, and chicken hearts.
Veggies I had kidney beans, peppers, onions, and green beans.
Starch or carb, 3 pieces of toast, and potatoes. 
Now for the other items. Yogurt and strawberries.

Once again I start to crochet my up coming grand kid a cap.
Not sure if I'm doing it right, but it looks like a cap.

There Things I Would like, Not

Went to work today at Regis and also Liz place. When I got home my husband told me he watch our state law makers debate. Having the BIBLE brought into the public school, which is paid by tax payer money.
Opinion time...I believe this cross the line of SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE
I have no trouble using religion in public school as part of history or literature. If they include all faiths, including Greek Methodology.
 If my son was in school and this was going on. I would give them the option to attend or not.
And work out something with school that they can earn a credit some other way.
My parents never shoved religion down my throat, and I didn't my son.
As I under stand during this debate they didn't care what the united state CONSTITUTION about bring the bible in schools.
Well when it comes to our gun rights they are quoting the constitution all to hell.
Now Idaho also have OPEN AND CARRY. And no funding for the mentally ill.
Haven't yet seen that many people packing heat (guns).
My husband Murphy and I decide if we get shot. Which I doubt would every happen in one of local business. We will hire a lawyer and bring a law suit against the business.
For letting fire arms in and putting people in danger.

A few ruff moments when it came to eating, although had harder moments.
When I was over at Regis I finished my shift and had my self to two cookies.e 
Stop in at Under The Sun bought a cup coffee and went up stairs and ate my sack lunch.
Well not going to list everything I ate.
Since Carrie and Regis left I'm not getting sweets offered to me.
No wonder there on METFORMIN,
The states picks up hers and I'm for a one pay system, but not a free ride.
Which I talk quite a bit on my blog how our medical system should be.
Well he pays for his out of his own pockets.

Took a few minutes and stop in at "Baby Go Around" and found this cute like Pajamas. Cost $3.00
A little larger then the ones I got before. Will send it down in June.
Already send enough items down, and it not here yet.


I found two items for it first Christmas. A set of puppets and musical ball. I believe all of these items came to $10.00

Can't Say I Like Doing It

"Tell me about your self " I actual don't like saying much about my self. In group situation, saying my name does both me. But if I have to say any more about who I am. I feel real uncomfortable.
Confession time....I feel like I'm bragging and self centered.
I guess in a lot of things in life I don't like coming in first or last.
I guess I don't have that dominate in the world.

I called up Consumer Cellar and canceled my cell phone. I didn't want to purchase a new one.
After it went though the washing machine. Since my hours will be cut back to 15.75 hours a week.
So I had to figure out where to cut in the budget. My month cell phone was a little over $15 a month.
Since I don't have one that doesn't work and cost to replace my phone would of been $35. 
Doesn't seem like much. 
But not sure what my car will cost to replace the breaks. 

It's pretty bad out of my bi monthly check I have to stick 15% a side. So I can cover my self employment tax.
Unless I find more hours. Every two weeks my pay check will be $391.54 and I'll need to set a side about $58.73, but I will set $60 instead.
I didn't pay quarterly taxes quarterly last year and got punished. Not bad.
But I had to transfer from my saving to pay my federal income taxes.
 I don't need a surprise like I had this tax season. 

Have an ideal how I can increase or get anther client on board. Till end of March my hours will be more then the 15.75.
My friend LaWalla has some business to take care of and I will be doing her hours.
First thing I'll do first part of April is talk to the PSR workers and see if they know anyone who could use hours.

My friend Alice want to cut her hours back, and offer me to go out to Joel and Margret.
Not sure how many hours I would end up getting. But I don't think I would get enough to cover the stress of it.
They treat me fine. I worked as fill in out there. But only having one vehicle I just can't chance driving out there.
Buying a few beers to calm my nerves would be the other issue.
I have never seen him or any evidence that he has hit her actual.
But I've seen him verbal abuse her and threaten her, calls her all sort of fowl mouth names.
Alice said that Margret told her she still loves Joel and knows he abuses her.
If we say anything she would turn on us.  

Murphy and I been replacing the corner post on the garden fence. The old ones we cut up for fire wood. Maybe one or two days worth.
Starting tomorrow afternoon it pose to rain.

I restart once again my crochet baby cap. A cap I think should be simple enough but still I don't know quite what to think. 

Did a hot better in eating. More whole foods. Breakfast french toast with side of sausage patty.
Lunch was 1 and 1/2 hot dogs with buns, and kidney beans. 
Dinner home made chicken and noodles soup. 
Now for the naughty food and which I kept in checked. One and mean one. Ritz cracker with some type of bacon spread. Had some ice cream about 6 oz or so.

Tomorrow off to celebrate OSTARA.

The World Needs All Types

I've been told the world need all types of people. At times there certain personalities if there mouth had duct tape the world would remain a better place.
But I know on the other side of pancake. People would rather see my mouth with duct tape.

Got up at four this morning to take my friend Alice to Bonner General hospital to have an colonoscopy. and also the doctor want her to take view down her throat. I believe it called a ENDOSCOPY . Not going into her medical history. Believe after taking care of people with both medical and mental issue. Talking sickness of any sort bores me.
Well the doctor saw something and sent her for an ultra sound.

I set in the waiting room reading and visiting with two nice ladies.
I was so thrilled one said she listen to NPR and she told me she heard a story about cotton prices are coming down.
Got my finger cross that fabric would drop in price.
Last time I was in the waiting room there. Some one spouting about how Trump was going to straighten out this country, and get these low life off the dole. 
I figure most people like this either got plenty of money or also on dole them self. 
Well since I was down in Sandpoint I thought I would run a few simple errands.
When I got back the waiting room had a set of new people.
The hospital chaplain was there and asking if anyone need prayer.
I pass on prayer. What happen is what happen. I can communicated fine to high power. 
Praying to one god isn't for me. I figure he or she is over whelm with requests.

Murphy has some type of crud. Maybe a flu or something like. He had the flu shot. Me, personal don't do the flu shots. 
If they had better odds of figuring out which flu is going to come around. I would consider it more. I'm not anti vaccine.
Sure the polio and things like that I have no problem having shots.

Like I said earlier today I had to get up early and Daisy made her self at home next to Murphy.

I should be posting about the items I eat. but this posting is getting a little long.

Yesterday I was in the thrift store with Regis. And found this RAGGEDY ANN doll. It has made up to teach one to dress them self.
So I stuff it in large envelope with a few out fits and it ready to be mail down to Bart and Molly.
Murphy made the comment, about the grand kid wouldn't be ready for few years to use the doll. Then turn around and ask me if I got a bike for it.
I did fine Raggedy Ann bother Andy, also at thrift store and large.
This will be a Christmas gift.

It's Been A Long Road.

I've been a history buff and was wondering about the HISTORY OF BLOGGING I been doing it since 2005.
I first heard about people posting a  ONLINE DIARY on some morning news show. I never kept a journal of any sort when I was younger.
Had a horrible fear someone might find it.
And today I have public blog. My first POST as you see it short. It took me a little time of getting the hang of blogging. When I first started I was worried I would run out of thing to post about.
It's now been over 10 years and here I am.
I was so excited, not to point of wetting my pants. When I had my first COMMENT Like neighborhoods things change thru out our lives. I was wondering how who might be still blogging. I believe it might take some time to find but I did mange to find a blogger from the PAST Don't even recall when the last time I was there. But I did leave a short comment.
Still not sure if the first bloggers are still posting, and if so how have they changed.
Yes and No I would change my blog. I believe I would do the tittle different. But what exactly I'm not sure.
But of course I could do better in my grammar. Who couldn't.
I know I would keep alias when I blog about some one. Simple I don't believe if a child has a bad seed for parent, that he or she will become bad.
We can't go though our life blaming our up bringing, after a while it just don't fly. Every one of us have to take responsibility of our choice and the results of them.
My father was functional alcoholic and I have the choice to be one or not.

Up and Down

Prices goes up and down. Not long ago I know gas was falling, and today I notice gas was starting to creep back up.
So when I was in Courd'Alene I fill my car up. A tank of supreme ran me about $28 
Last time we had our so called bonus checks handed to us. Some one brought up the subject of pay raises. Fact time....We haven't seen a raise of any sort in three years.
The management said Medicaid haven't let loose for any in home care. Suggested we write letters to our Idaho State Representative. We all figure it would be waste of time.
This state doesn't give a shit about it poor people. It wouldn't pass a MEDICAL FOR THE POOR. or help the WORKING CLASS
Social security get a raise base on inflation why not working wages. But instead of having a minimum wage, how about exploitation laws.
Anyhow Carrie and Hershal is going to Oregon because that state has better benefits for the low income.

Took Carrie to her doctor appointment in Post Falls. It sure change over there.
Still have more healing to do.


On the way home I decided to drive down seltice way or ages it was the old high way and things sure have change.
Or I thought it had.
Drove pass and old cemetery, which is called Kootenai County Cemetery. But also known as PAUPERS or POTTER CEMETERY   
Going down Seltice Way I want to stop in at CERAMIC GALORE to see what they have.
We didn't stop my breaks are making noise. It doesn't sound like metal against metal yet.
But Murphy going to use my car tomorrow and I'll use the pick up. To see what's going on.

Take a Gander In The Mirror.

My post was getting a little bit long yesterday. Last week I ate at our local senior center and there this Japanese man and his wife.
He was having lunch at the center, also a big “Trump” support wearing his button, hat, and hoodie.
Certain subject is best let un-spoken.
He ask me if I was for “trump” since he asked. I said “No” and also said “I doubt you and I at this time would be on same page when came to the presidential race.

But it got me wonder why some of Japanese heritage would be interested in “Trump”. I had to google and seen if “Trump” insulted the JAPANESE    He claims to be a Christian faith. He study a book written by MASTER JESUS Some time ago I would take a client or so to the free luncheon at “Grace Fellowship” and he brought his book to the luncheon. To give to anther person this book. No conversation on subject of “faith” so now he isn't loud in there.
I'm fairly sure they kicked him because of his believes and I doubt his heritage help him any.
I can only guess what happen at the OLIVE Tree with the Japanese man. Same finely result as at the Grace Fellowship.
Doesn't he see that “Trump” is all for angry white people who believes the system is stacked against them.
  Took Carrie to her doctor appointment. She used Dr. Garth. Takes his time with his patient and fantastic bed side manor.
Opinion time...He is to free with the scribed pad.
Carrie has pain issues and not seeing what the root cause of the trouble is. He got her on 2 types of opioid and possible anther one, Lycra which I don't in an opioid are not.
I'm going to miss both her and her husband Hershal. But I hope she finds a doctor who isn't going to hand out opioid pain pills like candy.
Don't know why I'm stiff. Did mange to get a walk in as Carrie was in her doctor appointment. Dr Garth is doing an add on to his office.
Eating went so. Ice Cream cone I believe the most naughty food I had today.
Trying to figure what all I had to eat today.
Breakfast was steel cut oats with raisin. Breakfast a small burger. Then for dinner chicken thigh, a salad, and mac “n” cheese.
As an in-home care giver I watch so many of these people continue to make horrible choices on there health.
Confession time....I don't have much room to talk. I could and don't always make good choices when it comes to my health.
I have no desire to end up like any of my clients.

I'm In Fine Standing

I belong to the "air head club" been a member for ages. I did load of laundry and my cell phone was in my jeans pocket and it went though the washing machine.
Part of the time it went though the dryer.
Now I'm wishing the phone will be ok. But the reality it won't be. If it isn't I'm going to contact CONSUMER CELLULAR and hopeful I can some how convince them to send me anther cell phone.

Got my up coming week figure out. Work that is. But Carrie will be leaving around the 23rd and heading to Bandon Oregon.
So after that my hours will be down to 15.75. Most of my hours will be with Regis.
Even with his mental illness. He is easy to deal with.
I've deal with some real pain in ass.

I was talking earlier with LaWalla and she going to file bankrupted. She will be 66 last day of the month.
At first she was going to try work her self out of debt.Not sure how many hours she would need. But she drives round trip of 62 miles.
Her clients hours is the same as mine, she planning to do it 2 days in roll.
and she want to do other thing like craft.
I know her social security is $900 and something.
Ages ago she was in ENVIRONMENT HEALTH CENTER, the main stream medical don't recognized it.
So medicare or medicaid won't pay for it.
She lives a complete different life style then me.

As for in home care goal I believe she want to quite the end of the year.
Now for my self it a complete different story.
I'll be there until I'm 60, that's four years down the road. Then I'll cut my hours down to 12 hours a week.
But if LaWalla actual leaves end of the year. Maybe I'll take on some extra hours. I'm fairly picky on who I take on.
There no excuse abusing anther person. Take my word there clients who abuse there care givers.

Today Murphy and I move an alpine fir from the corner of our garden out to the front yard. I even got in a walk.
I was going to post about this Japanese man who is for Trump. But I figure I've posted enough today.

Not Perfect But Who Accounting

Did a little better in eating Carrie seem she likes to snack on crackers and I try to stay away from them. Although I have to admit I did have a small amount.
I had one of her orange ice cream bar.
One thing I been putting on my french toast is MOLASSES which we had this morning. Peanut butter and 2 links sausage.
Lunch was a grill cheese sandwich and re-heated cabbage.
Dinner was beef ribs, nice toss green salad, and some mash potatoes. Add sesame seed oil and ketchup to the potatoes.


Her little doggie "Sweetie" stayed with her. It's her companion dog. I'm not much on toy dog breed but she well behave.
Get a long well with all the fur friends around here.
Yesterday she talk to her hubby and there might be slight delay of them getting into the apartments. The only good thing about them coming back would be I could continue working for them. But OREGON  is a lot more progressive then here. She should get a lot more benefits then they do here in Idaho.
Although there taxes are a lot higher. My son Sawyer who lives in Oregon says his federal and state income is at the same rate about.

A few of my snowdrops are now blooming.
One thing I got off was our income taxes one check I wrote was for $2,197 and majority of that will be going into my social security (self employment tax) and I also wrote a check for $550. Our account thought it would be wise we pay quarterly.
So I got a pay check and I took 15% and stuck it, to the side.


Our black cat is name after the neighbor to the Stevens on Bewitch, the KRAVITZ. This cat is newt male so we call him some time "Abner" 

It a lazy day around here. Hubby fell asleep in the lazy boy chair. Rain most of the day. When we do a time change for few days it seems one sort rummy for a few days. A lease I do. Not sure if we even need to CHANGE THE TIME anymore.

Cottage Cheese and Tomatoes

I could of done a lot worst. I made arrangement with Regis that I would come in on Friday afternoon and finish my week up. He likes to go out to his sister in laws Liz. And once I got my shift done I would take him out there.
I eat with my husband once month at the senior center. He eats there more simple he because is over 60 and it $4.00 donation and me $7.00.
So I try to seat on the best day.
Today we had Lasagna and it wasn't all that great. Plenty to eat and once I found Regis wasn't there. I was fuming.
Knowing this people lives and thinks complete differently then me. But still I let it up set me and came home and had a bowl of cottage cheese with tomatoes. Yes it fact I was eating total emotionally.

The snow drops are up in the flower bed closes to the road.
Murphy worked on our garden fence and dug up some carrots we winter over..

I hope or I shouldn't let things get to me.

No One Will Give

Weigh in was a bigger shock. I have gain the most in our weight lost group. Up two and half pounds. I'm even thinking of joining OA over eater anonymous
O.A is like any 12 step program they use to much quilt and God. But there sure something wrong with me, mental why I eat like I do.
Today was fairly good. Steel Cut Oats, with peanuts and raisins.
Lunch I took simple because Carrie had her appointments. Hard boil egg and I was going to eat one, but ended up eating two.
Yogurt, chicken leg and 6 crackers which I made into sandwich with goat cheese.
I'll have to take Carrie to her therapist and when we get back home. We will heat up last night chicken noodle soup.

There been grumpling that the majority of people in the RESTORIUM is people on Medicaid. Not sure if medicaid pays the full asking amount.
Our commission would like to remove the medicaid people which are poor people. And have it all private and if you see the price they charge. 
My grandmother Olive lived there. Unless they remodel the place. I know a lot better place then the Restorium for a lot less.
My mother in law is living in one in Spokane and she has a small kitchen, pays less for it. She in ORCHARD CREST  

Idaho had there primary and Candidate CRUZ took Idaho in the Republican primary. Which doesn't surprise me. Republican election is closed here
I change my voting this time around to Democrat so I can vote for Candidate SANDERS in our up coming caucus.
Our county didn't surprise me one bit when it came to the ELECTION 

There some of advantage of living in the small town. Doing in home care, the word gets out who to stay away from.
One is Donna and I knew one of her care giver walked out on her. Not sure what sort of stunt she pulled.
Usual when she had company she would get on her royal throne and talk down to you. Showing off her power, which she real didn't have.
A few times she would snap her fingers at me. And the other other girl she even whistle at.
Not sure what broke the straw off the camels back.
But as far as I under stand. There no one in this area will come to her home and take care of her.

Been doing some coloring and Murphy trim up my Jade plant.

Few Notes About Happens With Me

It been a little while since I post anything. Having Carrie here has been easy. Her husband made it down to Coos County Oregon.

Today mange to get into walks. My first one was after I stop at the local clinic where my doctors is at. Got copies of what we paid them.
And Walk around the block, which was fairly good size block.

Stop in and did my hour of “Fit and Fall” and I believe I'm only going to do it two days a week.

Went and did some work at Regis. His sister in law Liz went with LaWalla down to Courd'Alene . She been on S.S.D and will be 66 end of the month. And she will be on regular social security.
She want to know the rules on work once she switch.

Eating was pretty good. Only place I mess up was over at Regis had some cookies. Stop at super one and had bowl of soup.
Murphy made a nice chicken and noodle soup for dinner. Dug last years carrot out of the garden.

When I got home and did a small walk. Down to second power line poles.

Started to color anther page in adult coloring book.

Splitting Up Is Some Time Hard

First flowers to bloom of 2016. There in my what I call my "Hodge Podge" bed. Our grass is starting to turn green.

So far having Carrie here. But I know like any other house guest after a while one gets tired of them. Just waiting until her medication is filled.
Plus it gives me a little bit of pay check.

Talk to my friend LaWalla  a little bit this morning. About talking to our clients social workers and see if they know possible anyone who might need in home care.
She thought it was a good ideal.
She said once Carrie leave she would split the hours with Liz and Regis. 15.50 hours a week.
I know she mention the ideal hours for her would be about 25 a week. What I figure I want something about the same.

Went to fit and fall exercise class. Which is held at the senior center and I've been keeping my ears open for any buddy who possible needs help.

Picked up our taxes and afterward I went to our local court house and got the paper work for PROPERTY CIRCUIT BREAKER Not sure how other states work it. If your income is under $29,000 a year, disabled and over 65 years of age.
You qualify for a tax break on your property.

Carrie and Hershel clean out there pantry because they didn't want to haul the food with them. So they gave us quite a bit and I sort it out. What we can't use or want I'll take it into our local food bank.
Murphy spilt up some of our larger birch pieces.

Starting to think it would be a good ideal of having a yard sale the first weekend April. My daughter in law Molly is now 36 weeks a long.
The baby is due on the 27 of this month.
Babies come when the want.

The Extra Day

Having an extra day this year. Didn't make me feel any older or younger. Woke up to March with large snow flakes and thought by the end of the day. It would of turn to rain. So much for thinking.

February was fairly sane and not going to say how March will play out. Confession time...I wonder if I'm crazy or have some type of mental illness.

So once again I'll let Watson be my THERAPIST 

You are sentimental.
You are empathetic: you feel what others feel and are compassionate towards them. You are uncompromising: you think it is wrong to take advantage of others to get ahead. And you are calm-seeking: you prefer activities that are quiet, calm, and safe.
Your choices are driven by a desire for well-being.
You are relatively unconcerned with both achieving success and taking pleasure in life. You make decisions with little regard for how they show off your talents. And you prefer activities with a purpose greater than just personal enjoyment.

Well under the personality my strongest point is “Agreeableness” and my weakness would be “Openness”
The openness sort of surprise me.

I been helping Carrie and Hershel pack. He and one of there friends Earl is haul there stuff out this weekend.
Carrie is going to stay with us and keep it under the radar so I can get pay for next two or three weeks.
Main reason is to finish up with her doctor appointments.

ot sure what will happen after that. Between Liz and Regis they get 31 hours. My friend LaWalla does some of the hours.
Not sure how she want to split them up. But that part I'm not to worried about. She has always been fair with me.

Well for some unknown reason Murphette couldn't get help. I can't figure out why. This medicaid nurse is some what a hard nose.
I know clients who actual could use some hours because there bed ridden. Their lucky if they can squeeze 8 hours a week. I seen people not quite doing cart wheels get 16 or more hours a week.
Who knows where Murphette minds is. I wonder if she might have some type of SCHIZOPHRENIA or PSYCHOSIS 
Her thought that because she gave money to Candidate CLINTON and sense Idaho is a Republican state and now the FBI have a mark be her name and keeping an eye on her. That's why she didn't qualify for in home care.
Hell I donate to a socialist, Candidate SANDERS and know one watching me.

I started anther baby cap for up coming grand daughter. I believe I will need to down size my hook. Looking a little large in size
At one stage of game it should measure about 3.25 inches across.

As I said before not sure what I want or need to do about work. Not going to worry about it until Carrie is on her to Oregon.
Well I'm going check with Carrie and Regis Social worker if any of there clients could possible use some in home care.
I don't want to go to work for anther company. Most of them pay under $10.00 and hour.
Although I'm not making much more over $10.00 and hour.

Today I went with Murphy to  FIT AND FALL at the senior center. Didn't think it was all that hard physical but it gave my brain more of work out. I had to think how to do some of the movements.
