Saturday morning

Well, Ron didn't void when he had the seizure but he didn't make it to his bottle this morning.  I didn't know one man could make so much urine. 

I had to wash his comforter and the sheet.  Sheet isn't a problem because I layer a vinyl sheet with a fitted sheet so just take the sheet off, wipe down vinyl, apply clean sheet.  Comforter is feather and soaked but good so I put it in the wash.  We will see how that goes. 

I use a duvet with it so up until this point I have been able to avoid washing the comforter.  This is the first time in my "new" washer. 

So far OK.  I have dryer balls to help bounce it dry when it finishes. 

I did manage to make Ron comfortable he is snoring in bed.  He is sleeping more than normal since the seizure which can be normal.  At least he has a clean bed. 

I need to wash the sheets/duvet after I do the comforter.  Washer is working so I will just keep doing laundry until I run through it all. 

I need to eat and take my pills, not sure what I'm going to eat but I am going to stay away from those cheese sausages for a while, I had 2 the night before the migraine.  I do not need another migraine. 

I may see about getting a waterproof mattress pad and putting that on the comforter.  Then I can just take the cover off and wash it. 

Let me go see what I can find. 

I had a can of Beanie Weenie and a tall glass of milk.  Took the mood stabilizers, didn't take the antidepressant because it can make my headache come back, and mood is OK. 

I was feeling like I wasn't giving Spotty enough attention and he came to me today, I dropped everything and had a good cuddle with him, lots of petting, he drools a little - I probably shouldn't share that with his fans.  He does drool a little and I think it is related to his bad gums. 

Some cats are just unlucky.  Biscuit got the FLUTD gene and Spotty got the bad gums.  What is it with me and my men? 

And Ron is snoring away.  I plan to take a nap when the washer is done with the comforter.  I can wash the sheets later, when I get up. 

I went out front earlier and sat in my chair in the driveway, Torbie came along and got in my lap, we had a good time with me petting her, purring, and the scent of the jasmine in the air.  It was nice. 

That's it for now.

I have jasmine in my yard, such a lovely scent. Have you ever done any gardening? It's very relaxing, and it would be nice for you to get away from the smell of urine. You don't do anything to bring any joy into your life. So many people don't have a yard, you're so lucky to have one. But, you don't take the advantage to enjoy it, sitting in your driveway is very weird to me. You have a porch with a chair, can't you at least sit there and not make a spectacle of yourself in the driveway?

She probably wants to have the opportunity to get mad at the neighbors and glare at them.

I had extensive vegetable garden for many years. No energy to do it now and the yard guy whacks everything but the wandering jew and the jasmine.

The chair on the porch is covered in cat hair because Torbie uses it as her throne.

I knew there would be an excuse

I had the apartment from 2000-2001. Ron tried to marry a girl many years ago but "she was a whore", also the records clerk didn't approve of interracial marriage and "lost" the girl's birth certificate so they couldn't get a license. Her name was not Amanda. They split up pretty quick. She later married another man.

Last I saw there were fourteen Ron B's. There is a Ronald Jerome owns a trailer park, for instance, one is a child molester on the books, etc. There is one married to a girl named Rose, so both Ron's married a flower. Rose, and Heather. The guy married to Rose, lives in Houston, is always getting his car repo'd and they always call us about it.

Put a cover over the chair or put your driveway chair on the porch. You look goofy sitting in your driveway, why do you insist on doing that?

Heather Knits said...

I'm happy there, and it's my property.

Excuse? It's the truth, energy level is crap, especially now. Yard guy does whack everything green. Two facts, no excuses.

But I'm right about the name of the vending and you do know someone with the last name ostering. Plus ron was almost 40 when you were 17. So he has the emotional IQ of a teenager.

Heather Knits said...

Business name is right, but don't know any Ostering. Neither of us, must be one of the other Rons. I have been very clear he is 20 years older than me.

Why on earth does someone you can not even see “look goofy” sitting in the driveway? I have seen people do it often some folks do not like sitting in the shade or on the grass why not ? Where is the rule of society that someone looks ..I personally think it i s”goofy “ you even care about that.
I see it as a positive she is getting the hell out of the house who cares where in her yard she sits? I am literally dumb-founded this is how you great her on a sunday morning that is in fact a holiday to Heather!
Happy Easter Heather hope it is as beautiful there as it is here ..in your honor I will sit in the driveway today and enjoy the view of my neighborhood! LOL OOOXXX

I am done being surprised by the haters. I don't take it personally they don't have the balls to live my life and would run screaming in minutes.

Heidi said...

Was to the point of “whatever “ but being isolated as well as essential is working my last nerve the negativity towards you triggers me . But soon I will not care again you are grown and can handle it I am sure! Pretty much I am tired Missing my comforts of life ! I am not one who spends anymore lavishly than you do Heather except I do not have animals right now ..I spoil my neighbors dog! And I bought my him a heavy duty chew toy in the shape of.a giant pineapple from the easter bun . And sent some family cards and chocolate but I am working today . How about you? I hope you sit in your driveway all day! LOLOL!

Heather Knits said...

Eat some chocolate for me it is a huge migraine trigger, get some peanut butter eggs.

I am used to naysayers but here I am... everyone is telling me they would have utterly freaked when Ron had the seizure but instead I was calm, did what I had to do, and gave his medical history.

LOL I don't know about goofy, but if I sat in my driveway people wonder why and think I was odd. Maybe it's different in other parts of the country. I do sit on my front porch, I like to watch the kids playing, and people walking their dogs. But, no ones out now so I don't.

I think it depends on the neighborhood. In New Orleans it is very common to sit on the porch and gossip with the neighbors. Many Katrina evacuees had a lot of trouble with that when they came here. Because, everywhere I lived, we didn't.

My grandmother lived in an apartment complex and they used to congregate in chairs and talk, around the pool. Bonus points if a grandchild was in the pool.
