I haven't been to bed yet

It is after midnight and I haven’t been to bed. Mom went before midnight but didn’t say anything figuring I had already gone. I am hoping to go soon. In the mean time I went online and checked some emails through the webmail and went on Facebook.

I also watched a little bit of TV and watched a few movies that were on last night. They were either ghost type related or Horror movies. “Gladiator” was on TNT.

Kevin Sorbo is really starting to piss me off. He has been (within his right) posting really politically based postings on Facebook and he really is starting to annoy me with it. I don’t agree because I am a democrat and I believe in the Democratic Party and their beliefs. I am probably not going to gain any friends or lose the ones I already have from his fandom with what I wrote but I certainly wouldn’t tell how others how to think on Facebook.

While I was on Facebook® I discovered my former neighbor and classmate Tony was married recently to his partner Bryan. They were married in their town in Florida. I can’t help but get the feeling that Tony’s Family is supportive of his lifestyle. I hope they find the peace and realize Tony is a great guy no matter what

I heard from my cousin Andy this weekend. He had mentioned earlier in the week he had made home made beer and I responded that I remember making home made Root beer when we would visit the house in Vermont. He answered back that he missed those days too. I also connected with his son Drew and his niece Rachel.

I also replied to Liz posting about spending time with the kids this weekend. I commented also. I also made a reference to safe driving. I hope she sees it as humorous.

I wanted to check if Cami still had me listed as a friend. I hadn’t seen many of her postings on Facebook. It turns out I just missed them. However, I did post a hug. I am still not looking forward to today’s potential storm. I am bringing all my music CD’s and plastering them into the CD player and listening to them. I just will not allow myself to be in the middle of this ordeal. I can’t because I have been there myself. I feel there are times where I have spent too much time on the net while there was work to be done. I can’t help but feel that there would have been days I could have had a lot more done.

Mom says she has a Doctor’s appointment and some meetings to attend in Middletown but she will be home in time for dinner. I told her I won’t be home until 6 or so. My appointment with Debra is at 5.

I heard from Phil today. I hadn’t checked my emails until my “clearing out session” last night. Anyway, the meeting for Thursday was moved to 7:00 pm instead of its regularly scheduled time. Is that considered moved up or back? I sent out the email to the rest of the 4th District.

Telka sent me the information on the Traveling for community service and education that we discussed Saturday. She even asked if we are still doing the 21 day program to empowerment. I think she was surprised that the book was more religious then the way it was presented at the conference.

Mom noticed that above my lip the little hairs are getting darker and she suggested I start pulling them. Oh yeah? I don’t think so. We had broached this subject earlier this month but she didn’t want me to bleach them but she feels that rubbing alcohol might do the trick.

Okay I think I am going back online for a bit to see if that will get me sleepy if it doesn’t I don’t know what I will do. I will see you guys later…

Snowy Thursday

Good Morning everyone it is just quarter of ten and I am opening today’s lockbox. It is very light which is good. I wonder if that means today’s Post office mail is going to be light as well or the opposite. I guess it depends on the weather as well.

The snow that is predicted for today might start soon (I hope not) or it may start later…I am hoping it won’t start until after I do some shopping. Unfortunately I won’t be able to do much shopping because I don’t have that much right now.

I got an email from Gem she had read this and it upset her. She wanted to know what I thought. She also believes the person owes the celebrity an apology. I told her that’s BS because the writer is entitled to believe what ever she wants and to write whatever she wants). I did suggest that if Gem wanted she could post comments and share with the writer her views. I don’t believe in telling people what they can or can’t write in their blog but I do believe in discussions.

I heard back later and she says that if she based her opinions and beliefs on something that she was sure about and it turned out to be wrong then she would have to apologize and that the OP is going about it the wrong way. I reiterated that she should write her a comment and tell her. I almost told her I don’t give a dump about the fandom. Instead I told her we don’t have the right to tell others what they can or can’t write in their blogs whether or not it is the internet or not. I also told her that I agree with some of what Sandi was writing. That he has lied about certain things and that the fan clubs represent him and it doesn’t always reflect an appropriate picture.

I should tell you that I have been trying really hard to pull away from this. I think the last time I was at the forum was yesterday morning and I was really proud of myself for not going back there at all.

Last night was busy at our house. Mom was going out to a “mucky muck” party at the Milford Bank offices. The new oil tank was being installed and it was done well. I had my woman’s club meeting and party.

Mom came home before I left for the meeting. She said she barely knew anyone and couldn’t really hear very well. The only word she could describe it was a bit crowded. She spent the rest of the night relaxing and falling asleep in front of the TV.

The guys worked on the tank until maybe 8. It seemed pretty loud while they were there but when I got home I could smell oil.

Roberta picked me up around quarter of 7. We got to Telka’s by 7 and we started the meeting 20 minutes later. We got the meeting part over quickly. Roberta and Jolyn spoke on Hanukkah and Kwanzaa.

There was amazing amount of food there and I ate it all. I had a headache by the time I left for home. We did the gift exchange and the gift I brought one of the girls picked it. I was so afraid they didn’t want it or wouldn’t take it. I got a candle, instant scratch games, and a gift card for $5.

Roberta and I talked about Credit Cards, shopping, the holidays, and our plan to go to Dakota’s for Dinner some time after the holiday and in the early New Year.

The snow flurries started a little after ten. It didn’t last long but the entire state has cancelled schools for today. It is supposed to get bad later on. Around 12 it started coming down hard. Many people have left already. Others such as me will either leave a little later or at their normal time. It started to sleet around 2 or so.

The rest of the afternoon I worked on readdress mail and the bad addresses. I really wanted to go home but couldn’t get the energy and besides I have work to do.

It is after 8:30 and I am very tired. I left the office after 4. There were still quite a number of people still in the office. I can’t really say how many but more than ten. When I left the building Mike the Security guard was still on duty. The two Marcus’s were late. The roads were pretty messy. It was more like sleet than snow. There were still cars on the road but the best part was they were not going fast. I believe we were all going about 20 to 30 miles an hour. It was close to 5 when I got home.

Mom was cooking dinner and watching the news when I came in. It was be a few moments before eating so I opened my mail. I got a Christmas card from Dave, a Christmas card and letter from Sharon Towle in Florida. I am going to be updating her file in a little bit.

While we ate dinner the major story was the weather. They talked about the heaviest parts were and what to expect next and when to expect it to end (probably already doing it now). They discussed the traffic and how it was moving and how long it would be tied up as well. The second major story was the fire yesterday. How some shops were returning to work today and how it will affect them?

After Dinner Mom cleaned the kitchen and I took a bath. After my bath I updated some files and stuff on the computer and checked emails. I did watch some TV and took my meds. I am not really feeling that well.

I got an email from Telka today. She said things have been resolved with the bookstore and we will be starting up the gift-wrapping again. There is an opening for tomorrow night's shift but I really need to do some things around here like my Christmas e-cards and more shopping (at least for birthdays).

Well I am going to do some e-cards and pen pal stuff. Then I am going to bed. I am really tired and cold and not feeling that great. I guess I said that though huh?

I left the keys home again.

Today had a minor rough start. I woke up around 3 and didn’t fall back to sleep until 5 and then got up after 6 to empty garbage and get ready for work. Mom was up when I left. She complimented me on my clothes which made me feel very good. After I said goodbye I headed to work.

The traffic and drive wasn’t bad at all. I got to the office with no problem. It was very cold and I walked in with Mary Numa. We talked about the weather and her vacation. Man I wish I could go on vacation. She urged me to go.

I got in to my immediate office and started my day. I got my hot chocolate and then the charts came. That’s when it hit the fan. I couldn’t find the keys to open the box. I realized (read I had hoped) that I left them at home. I told Patti about it and then went home. Mom asked me what was going on and I explained the situation. I found them in the pocket of the pants I wore yesterday. I was back at the office by 9:15.

I got the charts checked, sorted, and delivered shortly after that and began working on the lockbox for today, and some readdressing mail. Now I am working on the post office mail.

I let Patti know what time I got back (she wasn’t in her office when I came by the first time). She thanked me and told me to take a deep breath. I held it and she looked at me and said ‘I didn’t tell you to hold!” she said with a smile.

I have been having a discussion with Lynn R (AKA Rayhana) over the last few days. It was in regard to this issue and others. I feel that Kevin needs to put a stop to it and get rid of the people running the fan clubs because there is so much tension and squabbling between the two. Rayhana feels that Kevin and any celebrity should not have to. She tells me that the president of the OINKSFC runs (it's hers to run) the club the way she sees fit.

If it doesn’t change then I don’t believe people will want to join the club. I had no problems with the President of OINKSFC but I have not been happy with things I have heard from others. According to Lynn the President is thinking of making the Message board/forum private and by invite only as so there will only be “positive flowery things” and nothing negative.

When are people on the internet going to realize that Message boards are to discuss with some amount of rationality the negative and positive? In one of my emails I told Lynn that I am just not going back there again. That being there just shows me that most if not all are unfit and lonely housewives and mothers who can’t get the kind of attention they need from reality.

Lynn was incredibly patient with me because I was getting ornery. We don’t agree on some aspects of the fandom but she was willing to hear and read what I had to say. She had to go to work and I was already at work.


I got an email from Telka this morning to remind me that the first night of the Gift Wrapping at Barnes and Noble starts and my shift is from 8-10. Oh no. Happily I will be with Roberta and so we will be okay. The others who signed up can’t be there after all. Hopefully it will pass by quickly. I have sent an email to Roberta and ask if she wants to pool over. I don’t know if she replied but I will call her if I can get her number.

This past week I joined another pen pal group and the owner Tami just sent me a whole list of names to write. One of them is JG. I am not letting on that there is a problem because well it’s not Tami’s problem yet. She also provided me with a list of groups to join. I let her know I am a member of some of them. ;) I did give the link to Joe's blog to her.

Well I better get back to work. I still have to finish opening the mail and then doing the MR Requisition list.

Well it is after 10:30 and I am heading to bed with hopes of getting some sleep. While I was at the Bookstore I got some coffee. It was not decaf and so I expect to be up for a while.

The rest of the afternoon went okay despite the fact that I allowed Lee Ann to annoy me because of stuff she saw in a bin. She kept insisting that if it has a name on the envelope it should go directly to the doctor. What if is bulk mail? How about we send it to the entire department and they disperse it. She insisted TO THE DOCTOR. I was highly annoyed and let a few people know. They suggested I just thank her and continue what I was doing. By the time I saw her again I thanked her for her views.

By the time I left I had gotten a lot done. I wasn’t able to do the bulk mail but that I can do that tomorrow. I left exactly at four. I walked to the garage and went to the 9th floor. It took me about 10 minutes to find my car (there weren’t a lot of cars up there). I finally found it and was on my way home.

Shortly after that I was on my way home. Traffic was slow moving. I got home by 4:30. I checked my mail and waited for Mom to come home. She got home by 5:30. She wasn’t going to one of the CPAC meetings but went to the next one. We had soup. It was delicious. We watched the news.

The major news story was about the teenager who went on a rampage in the Mall in Omaha Nebraska and then killed himself. They interviewed the mother of a friend of his and some other victims.

After Dinner Mom got ready for her meeting and left by 7. I wrote a letter to Debra and looked over the lists that Tami sent me. There are a total of three lists. I will be revising the letter and mailing them as soon as I get some stamps.

I left here after 7:30 to pick up Roberta at the agreed upon time. She met me at the door and rushed me out and to the car. Mike wasn’t dressed for company. So we headed over to the bookstore.

When we arrived we didn’t see where we would be doing the wrapping until we got directions and I saw Telka’s hat. I made a comment to the effect of “I should have recognized the hat”. She asked me if I was making fun of her hat. She was knitting when we arrived.

She gave Roberta and I instructions and made some observations that the male cahsiers were not directing people over to the table but the woman was. She gave us the lay of the land and then left and we spent the next two hours talking to each other or the employees and wrapping a few books. At 10 we packed up and headed home.

Now I am going to bed…

September 18, 2007

Well it is another cool morning. I am thrilled that the restaurant downstairs (Paula’s) had side order of hash brown logs. They gave you three for like $2.79 and I had coffee.

Oh guess what I did? There was a discussion about how casual Kevin looked at the pre-Emmy party. One idiot says “I am proud of him”. Rayhana asked what the girl meant by that. I grant you the OP (original Poster) is an international fan but it does sound stupid. Anyway I replied that I felt it was way too casual for a party of this magnitude. Let’s see if it stays. The reason I did this is because sometimes only certain people can criticize or say negative things about Kevin. That’s not how it should be. As it has been stated before in this and many other blogs a message board is for all comments not just the “all positive comments” especially for those in the public eye.

Well this morning worked on the rest of yesterday’s mail and perused the net. Which isn’t cool but I am not trying very hard.

Today’s mail from the post office came by 10. I got the checks out and put it aside and finished up the personal mail (to other employees etc). I am now working on the Medical Records list for tomorrow.

Two people responded one was Gem and the other was “Tina”. She forcibly said there was nothing wrong with the shirt and pointed out he wore it at Dragon*Con. That’s awesome bitch that would be casual. Not a fucking pre-Emmy party. I sent a message to Rayhana about “only the select few can criticize” although I don’t think she will agree.

Actually I don’t know why I really care. He isn’t supporting me and doesn’t know me from freaking Ares. I have been swearing to move away from the fandom but it is a slow process. I should be focusing on my health, work, family, and friends.

I heard from Mike B today. He wanted to let me know the location for the 4th District is at Headquarters tomorrow. I could have sworn it was going to be Thursday. I revised calendars.

I finally called Mike R to find out my account number. I can’t seem to find any documents at home with it. I know my packet is somewhere in that mess. I know the number know so I will send it out later on today. Mike’s Daughter Miriam will be joining them for Yom Kippur this weekend. I don’t know if I will get to see her. Its been a year I think.

Well I better post this and get back to work. I will write more after my session with Debra and the clothes switching and debate….

Things like this make me yak

Over the last couple of days members of the SF-Fandom Baord for Kevin Sorbo wanted to do something special for the president of his OAKSFC. They were from Australia and the international group. Well Rayhana once again as in the past made some very obnoxious and blunt comments to make sure that others *such as * one member who is a staff member and has some serious health issues also be considered for an opportunity (who wouldn’t be able to otherwise) to get to meet Kevin Sorbo.
The following is my response to Rhonda when she was making excuses for Rayhana's behavior today.

RE: Rayhana was incredibly rude and divisive
If I had done or said what she did I would be filed as a bitch and thrown off the board....This type of behavior is Unacceptable and makes the damn fandom look like petty whoring sluts.and as much as I respect Stripe (I just sent three more magazines that I found for the next auction) I don't have that kind of money to be spending on anyone else...-------------Rhonda S wrote:> I think she just wanted to be sure that Miss B wasn't forgotten and to remind people that there were others who should be thought of when considering a project like this.> > Rhonda> > -------------Kathleen P wrote:> > > I can't believe she is that obnoxious...she pulled this shit when Mardi won the phone call. Can't she just say "I can't do it this time?"

Before I posted this I went back to the forum and it seems that I am not alone in my belief that Rayhana’s comments were uncalled for and as a result she has withdrawn her comments from the situation. That may be all well and good but that doesn’t excuse her behavior. As many have said it has caused hurt feelings and quite frankly its embarrassing and has only reinforced my resolve to pull away from the fandom faster.

Saturday goings on.

It is nearly three in the afternoon. Mom is lying on the couch relaxing and reading/sleeping. I was watching something on PBS. The Winged Migration that was on earlier this week. It originally aired in 2001.

Today was a pretty low-key day. I did some laundry and went to the store. I was also invited to go to a surprise party for my niece Cheryl. I am leaving here around 4:30 and meeting Liz and Nelson at their house and drive up together. I don ‘t know if we are staying long. Liz says we are not. I did get Cheryl a card and will be writing out a check for her.

I am also doing what I said I would do weeks ago in my I am done rant entry. I am shredding articles and pictures that I have gotten over the years from friends and fellow fans of Kevin and of his shows. I am also going to get rid of the tapes. I will probably get the DVD’s because I enjoyed the show and would like to have them. I will no longer get involved with Entertainment fandom’s the way I did before. I will visit message boards and post on occasion but not to the extent I was.

I am going to get ready for Cheryl’s party.

It is Wednesday again

Have been out of bed since 6 (but my usual awake since 5 gig). I have already showered and am I am about to get dressed. I just checked the weather forecast for today. It is supposed to be in the low 40’s (38-39 degrees) all day and sunny. We are supposed to get showers tonight. Tomorrow we will start off in low 40’s and then get into the 50’s later on in the day. But we are supposed to be having showers all day. L I guess this is the first spring shower.

Today will be working on the lockbox and the readdress mail and the collection letters (just folding them its no big deal but they are time consuming). I do have to get the mail from the lobby that’s been there a few days now.

Work went well. I got a lot done with still more to do. Shirley had to speak to me about the “readdress mail and bulk mail”. I told her I am working on it as I go along. It seems never ending.

The Wal*Mart in West Haven had their “grand opening”. I am surprised there was no coverage about it on the news tonight. There was a front page article but I haven’t read it yet. It’s rather late now anyway it’s in the recycle bin. It is located right off of Saw Mill Road and is literally at the highway entrance heading south. It is also a half mile away from the I-95 North.

I have to say in my quick glance of it on the way home it didn’t seem to be very busy around 4. I couldn’t really see a lot of the cars nor could I see them

I have been having a very interesting conversation with a fellow Kevin Fan. She is a very nice lady who has become disenchanted with Kevin along with many others of late. I just wish I could help her with some answers but I don’t have them. I also wish those who are hard-core and don’t seem to be bothered by how they and Kevin come across could also see it.

I had to empty out my Yahoo 360 mail box. It was full. They were messages from all of my friends. The subjects ran from Holidays to Kevin Sorbo, to Families and other blog entries notifications. If I happen to get anymore I will be saving them from the beginning.

I had a moment of concern last night. I was invited to be a person’s ‘friend on 360 when I accepted I got an error message. Well it seems that I wasn’t the only a girl reported it on the Yahoo 360 group last night or this morning. We haven’t had any responses so far.

Now that it is nearly 10 I think I will hit the sack…

I have had a really long day

I have had a long day. I didn’t go to sleep until after 1. Somehow I cut myself because I had blood all over my left hand. It took most of the day to either wash away or fade away.

I got ready for work and put the garbage out. I was pretty late in leaving and managed to be late for work. I can’t remember what I was doing first but I know I jumped into what ever it was. By the end of the day I had all the EOB piles up to today done and sorted and delivered.

I found out today that TK’s restaurant is no more. They had one last party and that was Superbowl Sunday. The restaurant was sold to make way for a 14 story High rise. The surrounding parking lot will no longer be there as well. I was in shock. I talked it over with several people and the topic of parking availability came up as well.

Shirley returned from her snow day and she looked great. She didn’t ask me once what was on my desk. I told her I would finish the letters in the Morning.

Through out the day I was still preoccupied with the whole article that caused me to go on a rampage on one certain actor. More and more site and journals are regurgitating the article. Rhonda hasn’t talked to me since the last 360 email I sent her. I do have to admit they (the gang at the Board for Kevin) are making it really hard to stay mad at him. They do get this could be a problem but are hoping for the best. I was telling Lee Ann about it and she said it isn’t my responsibility to defend him or tell him what to say or think. It’s his responsibility. This is sort of where we disagree but she does make some sense.

After work I headed home. I had to stop and get my new insurance card. I got it and headed to the dentist with a little time to spare. I signed some papers and was whisked in. The whole procedure lasted half hour.

After that I went to Liz and Nelson’s. Liz was watching “My name is Ed on DVD and the computer while Nelson was watching History stuff. I talked with Liz for bout half hour and asked if she would like me to make a payment and she said sure. I told her I would make $500. She said that would be enough. After the visit I took the pictures and headed home. Mom was folding clothes when I got home.

She had dinner cooking and this is where I did something stupid. I decided I would do my taxes. It took me almost an hour to do them. She was upset. I caused dinner to be ruined. I told her I was still working on it and to go on ahead. She didn’t hear me. Once I was finished I apologized profusely and she said drop it. However, she seemed annoyed with me the rest of the evening.

Oh I managed to get the taxes done and pay for the e-filing. She asked me if it cost me anything and I said no. That was a slight white lie or two. I think the entire process took me 1 ½ hours to do.

My mind is now turning to mush. I need to go to bed…

I am done

Well I can’t believe I am adding to the hoopla but here goes. Kevin Sorbo has once again experienced hoof and mouth disease. In a recent article here he is quoted making several complaints and incredibly inappropriate remarks about Rob and Lucy Lawless Tapert. He managed to enrage many of Lucy lawless’s fans such as Xena Online: Kevin Sorbo has issues. I mean this woman has really good points. I mean what is the point when you see all these that have been posted? There are some Xenites that are trying to understand and there are some that are just giddy with delight to be proven right yet again. There are also fans that will believe it when they actually hear it from his mouth. Well they can do all they want I am finished. No more lists no more forums. It’s done.

Kevin you had it all in your hand. Big freaking deal that you are outspoken well this will cost you a great deal and I hope to god you are willing to pay the price. Your fans think you can do no wrong and that it’s okay to hurt others? They make me sick. You and your shitty ass mentorship organization make want to yak. That bitch that you have running the place? She could give a rat’s ass that your actions reflect on them. I hope you and your wife will be very happy I have no intention of supporting AWFFK (or what ever lame ass name you give it) or anything else you do. I am tired of saying “oh well he is who he is”. Your actions and choices have consequences. Nice role model you turned out to be.

Oh and to those fans who think I am not a true fan? Don’t play me. I have put up with a lot in this fandom from other fans who think they are all knowing and know the true meaning of fans.

This weekend everything else I have is being shredded. I will keep the Sound tracks to the HTLJ and Kull because I enjoy listening to them but anything else gets tossed.

I did talk to Mardi about and she is disgusted with the whole situation with Kevin. She didn’t seem surprised by it. We talked about other things too. We talked about how our families are doing, what our health is like these days, and how work is going.

I tried to put the garbage out tonight and it was like pulling teeth. First I put just the bag out. It either got pushed or rolled over to the driveway. I then put it in the garbage can and the can gets knocked over. I decided to put it by the front porch in case the wind knocks it over.

I got a call from Tessa tonight. The 4th District meeting has been moved to Friday February 16th at 7 pm to their house. The club house is being rented out tomorrow.

Well it is getting late and I need to get ready for bed.

I was so frazzled today

I am so glad today is over and I have the weekend to do the things necessary. I was a so frazzled with myself because I had so much to do it and so little time left to do it. Gloria who was in a state of agitation for quite a while did most of the morning work so that she can get use to it. Unfortunately she got confused a few times of what she had to do. She did take notes over the past several days and she did refer to them but she was bitching saying “they expect you to learn this in a certain amount of time” “They are harassing you to expect that you should hand out every piece of mail. After lunch Gloria had to return to her own work and I finished opening the mail and taking care of the bad addresses and still worked on some of the readdress mail. She asked me when Nina was to join me and I looked at her and told her for the umpteenth time that Shirley will probably sit in the office with her and go over it a while. That’s about the time Caroline piped up and said “She better not ask me where stuff goes”. Caroline was dealing with some stuff in Registration and getting ready for her wedding in about a month or so. I felt a little better when I left.

On my way to Debra’s this woman walked by and I could see this little head peering out of her jacket and it was a puppy. She saw my reaction and smiled I gave her my soda can and she gave me her dog. We walked to the corner and we talked. It was an adorable little thing. We went our separate ways and I headed to Debra’s. I was a little late getting there because I saw a couple of other beautiful dogs and was admiring them as well.

When I finally arrived we sat down and I talked about the frazzled feeling and how the week had gone at work. We talked about how the week went with the family and I told her I got the cute outfits for Jason and Audrey. I also told her of the plans for the party for Mom. The discussion went from there to Aetna (had they sent anything as of this writing she hadn’t heard anything but I just checked the website and I think they are sending her the check). I also talked to her about the Kevin S fandom. How there is a thread on there picking out the positives of the movie that recently aired on Lifetime. A thread in which I feel is really unnecessary because there was a discussion thread already in progress and granted there were some views of disappointment but not of his performance. Basically it sounds like they want to coddle the man. That he should never have to read or hear negative comments. I am here to tell you. If he couldn’t handle it at this stage of his career he is in the WRONG line of work. After the session I headed back to the car and headed home.

When I got home Mom was at her computer checking emails. She had been grocery shopping for the week and holiday. She told me a story that she heard from Jim today. He told her Emily had a report on bugs at school and she wore the lady bug earrings I gave her last year (I think) I thought that was sweet.

I checked my phone messages and found one from the bank. It was about the car payment. I was a few days late so I told the very nice lady when I called I would mail it out tonight. I was a nervous wreck.


I also heard from Jennie she invited me to the movies tomorrow night to see Happy Feet. She called back later on in the evening and we made plans to go. We also talked about how Marc was feeling as well as her Aunt. Her Aunt had fallen and was not being cooperative about going to the hospital. Let’s hope she does go to be checked out soon.

Before Dinner I had some snacks and watched TV. Mom started getting dinner ready around 5 and I caem upstairs and watched part of the Last Chance Café Movie on tape. I got changed and we eventually had dinner.

After dinner I got the book put in the gift bag and got the car payment ready to be mailed and headed out to Liz and Nelson’s. I had no trouble getting there and we chatted for about 45 minutes and then I left and they had their dinner.

When I got back home Mom was going back out to do some more shopping and decided to do some channel surfing. TV Land is airing the Star Trek franchise. The computer was burping at me. It was also doing the virus scan and seems to be okay right now.

I am heading to bed right now and I plan on getting up real early to do my chores. Get rid of some old papers and straighten the room and then when Mom gets up vacuum.
