Life Through the Eyes of my Scattered Brian

 Took some basement stuff up  to my storage unit near  the house. Trying to make the cost of my move not totally crazy by cutting down a lot of stuff to move.  The builder put my shed up. I thought it looked small when I pulled in  but it it wider than longer. He knew I wanted to make this a crafting shed so look... he had the builder of the sheds to install at great work area!!! And I love that it is not the barn like shed I had at the other house. That means that I can put in shelves, and are not cut off by the  slant of the roof.  Forgot how wide my deck is! I love it.  And LONG! I did not put my welcome sign in storage, I took it and put it on my new front porch so when  I move on the 12th, WELCOME will be the first thing I see. This afternoon, at the venue, James and Julie are having a drop in and  grab a snack to say their  goodbyes to me.  I just keep telling myself  don't cry.  I will cry! I have been good moving from my childhood home, been so busy  with so much to do that

  I tend to have this issue with my Fibro. With down days things pile up and this  works its way into my system. With the move, I can't tell you the times I have stood with my hands on my hips, and just looked around at what I have to do. Its overpowering at times. I only have two weeks to do what I have to do and yesterday my body  shut down on me.  I can't do that anymore. I am trying to get all the  craft stuff out of the  garage and in storage in my new area to cut the price of  moving. Wow, a truck, loaded, stored overnight, moved and unloaded is over 2000 bucks. So, hence moving things to storage to keep from  having to have a 2nd truck and paying double. Today, I have to suck up  the overwhelming feeling and get somethings done. Wish me luck. Pam

 This woman is amazing. Singing Rocky Top at a UT football game and then doingt this half time event. And man, too look like that at 77! I did not even look like that after in my late 20s! Dolly is also supporting the Red Kettle  this yr. But when I say supporting, I don't mean just commercials,  she donated a million bucks to the Salvation Army. Along with having a new book come out and cutting her first all time ROCK album. I watched a video on line of her at half time and I  was amazed at how good at 77 she looked in that  outfit. Course, she gives  credit where credit is due,  to her doctors! But with that said, I mentioned watching the video cause during that performance, I noticed that the stage must have been tight  and limited to space, she would hold on to a part of the stage behind her, but even with that, she turned and sang to the people in  the stands behind the stage.  I know I have stated before, that I just think this woman is  AMAZING! Now, let me also say that  wh

Merriest Thanksgiving  to you all!    FINALLY!!!!! I jumped through all the hoops, the inspection was a go,  and the appraisal is a go. I move Dec. 12. There might be a light at the end of the tunnel! Pam

 I am planning on doing just this. I saw this on FB the other day and I  had to laugh. So true! Yet another meme I  found on FB. A week ago I went to the grocery store which I have been avoiding so I had not been in weeks, I  was shocked! Prices are crazy. Then yesterday I had to  go the Doc in the Box for a flu shot and Covid shot, and saw their prices on somethings! CRAP... People wonder why I shop at Wally World for  my groceries, and though they are crazy with pricing, they are not as crazy as Kroger or Publix.  FYI~ why have I been avoiding going to the store. Trying to empty out that  stuff before the move. So when I go to Ambers tomorrow I  am taking some freezer items to her. I have to be packed in the truck on Dec. 11., but closing is not  till Dec. 12....which leaves things in the truck and I don't want food sitting like that. Staying with the feline furs at my brothers house, they  have a basement bedroom we  can stay in, keeping my cats away from theirs. They will stay

 Just in case I don't get back to  tell you.... So in one of my  play along questions  on FB I asked what is  your fav side dish on  Thanksgiving? Another question was, do you  prefer turkey or ham? For me, I rather have ham and my fav dish would have to be the dressing.  What about you? Misty was curled up  on my chest, and believe me that is not easy, that area is tiny on me and  Misty is not! But I got to thinking about when she was  so tiny, curling up on me and picking me  to be her human. So, I went into my pics and looked at her when she was just a tiny babe. Sweetest babe! And of course, you know how big that little babe got! Still my snuggle babe at night. Been fixing this for  either breakfast or  lunch lately. Three of my fav fruits. I drink water all through the day but I don't like just sipping on plain water so  I usually put a couple of orange slices, or  lemon and a 1/4 cup of blueberries. Once I  get to the end of my drink I have fruit to eat.  I get enough fru

 Guess who is feeling better and was able to go home last night? Evie! RSV, strep and I found out she had a  ear infection also. Bless this little girl! She is so silly! Misty was curled up next to me  last night, sleeping. But check out that claw that was out! Time for a trim! Earlier I looked over  and saw praying paws. For some reason Misty was sticking  her tongue at me! Oh, but how beautiful. She looks like gray velvet  and feels like it too. Pam

 Poor little Evie,  seems that she can't  catch a break. Temp for several days has been running 102 to 103. She has RSV and strep. Went to the ER and they were going to send her home, just then she decided to show them wrong and threw up. This is her second night in  Vandy. Although, I can report that she is feeling better, after the facetime call I just had with her. She was giggling and  being silly.  Please keep her in your  thoughts and prayers.  This morning I was stretched out on the couch chilling with my fave fur.  And talk about  stretching out!!! This girl can really do it. Went to Amber's yesterday to take DJ to the doc so  Amber did not have to  take off.... while sitting in the waiting  room I looked up and noticed  the store bought painting. Do you notice what is wrong with this pic? Well, if you did not notice,  it was hanging wrong. Sideways! This is how it should be  hanging. I did show the lady behind the counter the pic and  told her what I noticed. She laugh
