Guess the plan to close by noon is not going to happen. Still got to get the truck into the shop, still not willing to start even with the new batteries. Needs its oil changed anyway, time for a tune up. Just hope it is water in the filter or something small like that. One that doesn't cost a arm and a leg.



Stuff like this really makes me miss Dad. Of course he would never been able to fix this truck, way to much computer run for a old trucker like him to fix. :) Give him a old truck and he was happy.



Then a trip to Cat's to do some paperwork, then start on helping Sis with the last of the house work. She gave Mom a shower this morning, so I am sure she is worn out.



I myself just want the four wine coolers saved for later tonight. Not to much, just enough to make me sleep good as got things to do Tuesday. Graveyard is on the list, still not gotten the winter flowers out yet. And I hope not a whole day with cleaning at Mom's, but the Kitchen cabinets are still to be done. Everything pulled out, washed, inside wipes out, new liner put down. Carpet needs cleaned.



Even the pup got in on the cleaning- she went to the groomer this morning for a bath. lol



Poor thing, all nice and clean for the new year.



Really wanted to get my hair cut today but the lady closed at 2:00. :( Curly hair- any lenght on it and I get horns. I will not take that extra 10 mins to blow dry it, gel, hairspray stuff so... horns. Look like I haven't comb it in a month. o.O

Can't wait to get it short again.

Spent yesterday cleaning with my sister and her friend at my Mother's home. Totes, storage, storage racks being added, closets cleaned out with about 40 bags of trash going out in this clean up. Left to do? Laundry, and the last push of dusting, vac, clean the bathroom before my sister returns off her vaction/ time away/ must needed rest.



She will be suprised, I am sure. The house looks so much different, cleaner, and lots more roomy.



Plus side of yesterday- I went over to Cat's and had a great meal of turkey, ham, and all the side dishes. Even some great fudge, cookies. They did Christmas dinner when her brother and his wife was in to join them. I was late, and stinky... but they still opened the door to me. :D



I am leaving sister to do laundry and the several totes of paperwork/ misc junk that needs sorted and trashed as needed.



Today is my day to clean my own home, laundry, and rest. Got 3 movies from Netflicks that I have had for over two weeks to get watched.



Sounds like my plan for the day after the housework.



Monday we are working half the day. I know I have to give half a day and or Tuesday to finish helping getting Mom's home done, so I am going to enjoy being lazy some of this day. :)

Tell ya... I miss my sister. While another sis is here to keep care of my mother and brother as she takes a break, she sucks.



Why?



*sigh*



She doen't care about the moving company so I can't talk to her about it, or rant to her. While she is great on the rental company as her 20 plus year job (works for someone else at this) is being over an apartment complex of over 120, she sucks at the other business. lol But she can run credit, do a back ground check, leases, notices, court to collect rent with ease.



But she really is bad at feeding me.



I have gotten spoiled. My one sister, when she fixes Mom and brother food, will serve me up a plate, tell my brother to run it down the driveway to the office. I get hot, warm food. :D



This sister? Please.... I got a cold bagel with tons of cream cheese on it this morning only after hinting I was hungry. And the other day I got a thin slice of cheese on bread with tons of mayo. Ewww... what is that?!



*sigh* Swear she is trying to make me loose weight.



It is 3:00pm and I would call, ask about a late lunch as the cold bagle was at 8:30am but afraid what she will send me. Maybe cold tuna not drained, and a cracker. Wouldn't put it past here. Sure she would be laughing as she did it too. :)



Just hope my Mom and brother are eating better, sure they are. I understood they had pizza yesterday, while I was gone.



Monday I am bringing my own food, dang it. But then we plan to close by noon so. *cross fingers* I have some wine coolers all ready for Monday night. :D



And my other sister who feeds me will be back on Wen. Think I will post a sign in the yard at Mom's "Don't feed the lady in the office." as that is what she has done this week. lol :D

You know- the whole "It's unfair!" cry is getting on my nerves. Others have to have paid memberships if they have more then one profile. Ask around, you will told by many how they was made to do it.



I know of a Mother, Father, son and daughter that had to get memberships.



I have had to get all mine paid memberships.



But I also know if someone in my house made another profile on the site, I would be paying for that membership too.



"Can't stop him from doing it..." Well- we can. And we do. You are not above the rules that other follow. So... stop whinning. It is his profiles being suspended, not yours. Right?



Riiiighhht?



But your actions and drama will get your own profile shut down for a day. Enough already.

So Christmas is mostly done for me. While I worked Monday morning Cat went with me to my estimate, keeping me company while I worked a few hours and made $150.00. Have to finish up the paperwork in the morning.



I wanted, and we did make a few stops to some abandoned homes but coudn't get into any of those, locked up tight.Did find one I was able to get in as the doors busted in- the porch weak. I could hear Cat's warning of "Watch that porch, it looks rotten." She was right, and I knew if I fell the foot to the ground I would never hear the end of it as I 'bounced' on the wood, trying to find a safe place to put my weight.



I did so, only to find nothing of beauty. Only shot that would of been good was the dark stairway up, the light at the door at top. But I forgot my tripod and didn't want to go back for it. :)



So- other then a sink, not really much that wasn't taken by the scrapers. Has a second of think the cops found us when the walkie talkie in my coat pocket went off, Cat talking to me. In my mind it was a cop radio, thinking we was going to the Pokey on Christmas Eve. lol Forgot I had it with me, a must she demanded, along with my cell phone carried with me.



We then stop in a few other places, had a nice lunch, came back home to shop a little for my sister. Yes I went shopping for a few items, on Christmas Eve. Two shops. *shock and horror* lol



As we was leaving the dollar store a older man open the door for me, and Cat just ran him over with the cart. I mean... really, she was in a hum bum mood for it being Christmas Eve. lol



Cat- Fa la la la lala la la. lol ;)



Sorry- inside joke.



Then it was Cat's family to open gifts and spend time with the kids. I remember ripping into the wrapping, thinking of the fun, the joy those packages would bring me as a child. When do you lose that?



Birdy, Cat, her sister and I did exchange gifts, and I got several nice gifts. But it seems to never be all that it was as a child. Like.... you lose the wonder of it.



So home, then my family today. Sister who lives out of town was to of been here at 11:00am, but she, and the company she brings, showed more toward 1:00pm. Good news is my sister who stays with my mother and brother, care giver, is going to have the week off. They are trading places, my other sister *these two are twins, just so you know* is staying here to take care of Mom, giving a break to us. When I say us- I am sure I will be on call, get asked all kind of questions on meds, etc.



But that is cool, nothing like what my sister does each day.



We chatted, ate a great meal, joked some, and the end before sis left she tried to explain to me how to do the taxes on the payroll. Early but she wanted to get it out of the account. As my eyes glazed over, she patted the top of my head. "Never mind. Let's go do it now, you never could understand how to do the phone deposits." Well.. not true. I know how- it's the damn system that hates me. It screws up the numbers I hit, or the code number, or the EID number. Freaking things hate me. :P



So a few minutes later I hug her bye, told her I would see her next Wen. Kind of sad seeing her go. I go back into the house, passed out kisses, told sis if she wants anything I should be home... and here I set. Full belly, laundry going, and dessert of homemade cheese cake for later. :D



Think I will dig out a SuperNatural DVD and enjoy the last of my Christmas Day.



Hope all that read my journal has a great day with family, those they love. I know the last two days for me have been full of love, fun, and being accepted for who I am.



Any better gift? I don't think so.

What a great day. While I miss sharing Yule with the sisters I had a great day. Enjoyed a walk outside while gathering evergreens to finish off my alters. Put a pork roast that I marinade for 4 hours in the dutch oven. :)



Such a peaceful day, taking the time to enjoy the season.



Some photos to share, not really taking the time to set them up, just sharing. :)















Dinner-







Not burned, the black is the fat. I always cook meat with the fat, then trim it off. Adds to the taste. :)



Now to let the roast cool as the baked potato gets done in the oven along with the roasted broccoli. Got suger cookies mix I also plan to make for the group ritual but don't think I will need them.



Already did my ritual, as the sun set on the longest night of the year. :)

So I take it the world didn't end. :) First day of Winter, Yule. While we plan getting together for ritual I am guessing I will be alone for my ritual tonight. Why? Well folks...



IT IS SNOWING!



*does happy dance*



While it is not enough to cover the roads or grass- it is snow. :D And I am happy with the little amount we are getting.



A job had to be pushed back to next week. Not so much for the snow but the wet roads and it being only in the upper 20's here, wind chill in the teens. Not taking a truck to eastern part of the state, into the hills, with that cold.



So that means I get a 5 day holiday. :D I need to work Mon for a few hours but other then that my holiday weekend starts now.



Now to get dress, go cut me some evergreens, and find me some items for my alter.



Merry Yule!

How is my day? I know you was going to ask so...



Let's see.



I booked two jobs, with the 2nd one being a "If we can get to it" military delivery that is now pushed back a week. Not a promise but a "We will try our best." to start with ended up with "No, sorry."



Guys was all for it- more hours the better. But then the day went to hell for us.



So about 11:30 I get a call. Seems we put the truck out in a field, a field of grass mind you that has had three days of rain on.



Can you guess what happen??



I go out to find the truck buried, and a farm tractor ruts. The customer was not all upset about the yard, even after it was all said and done.



So I walk about, the boys staying away from me as I was ready to blow. Trees, could use a come-a-long to get it out of the ruts but how to get it back up the wet grass/ hill they backed down... I pulled out the phone and called in the tow truck. I explained the problem and had to go with a tow company I didn't know as the one I usually use bigger tow truck is out of the state today.



So we waited a half hour, boys still staying away from me as I was pissed at the stupid of menkind. 3 men can't do the math on rain, grass, hill, and weight of the truck. WHT, right? Fucking loons.



Tow truck shows, and it is a small one. Really? But he tells me he had the truck he needed.



Ok.



Two hours later we went from my truck stuck, to truck and tow truck stuck, to farm tractor pulling out the smaller tow truck as it wouldn't touch my truck. Then we went from a crome bumper and light bar broken/ bent on the tow truck, and some deep freaking ruts in the yard. Farm tractor got the tow truck out, which would stop, brace, and pull my truck up to a point.



Cost, you might ask? Well... I am going to cut the move cost in half to help pay her son who said he would fix the yard. So with labor that means I will break even on that.



The tow truck driver, mind you I have never used them before, said he would send me a bill. He left without any payment. o.O



I took that as a bad sign. One of those "If you have to ask, you can't afford it" kind of things.



The driver has drove for me for close to a year and he made a stupid mistake. One he has learned from. Heck, the last driver costed me 4 tow bills in less then 8 months. Note the EX driver. One time is enough to learn- stay out of the yards. And when it has rained for three days- stay the FUCK out of the yard.



*sigh*



So yeah.. sucky day.

The things you miss when you are moving a pharmacist into his new bigger house, out of a 4 bedroom 'old house', all day without any TV or radio on. And listening to a Queen CD in the car.



Took reading the journals here to turn the TV on.

Sad day. Makes you wonder what is wrong with folks. Of course it only took watching the news channel 20 mins before the whole topic of banning guns came into play.



I have two handguns. Have handled guns since I was 14. I was taught to respect it, and what it could cause if I misuse it.



Now- do I think guns need ban? No. I think the parents should freaking lock up their guns. They should teach.



They should do background checks, they should have a waiting time to buy one.



Yes- guns make it 'easy' to act out, to react, if they are within easy reach. But I also think if you have to kill, you will. Gas can, lighter- all it would take. Acid out of a battery, club, etc. You want to kill you will find a way. At least it is how I see it.



Maybe we should teach kids about life, how your actions effect others. And how to ask for help if you are that angry.



Just a sad day.

teaching is the key I agree with you and yes I agree also that people can take anythingif they do want to do arm or kill, even kitchen knives or a fry pan or even a pencil.... so the basic and most important thing is:teaching the value of life.



Which is really something lacking and sometimes even totally abcent in this life and time of life.

We actually have gun laws, but many of them aren't being strongly enforced. Plus - those laws need to be updated.



It's true that a person can kill another with just about anything within reach...but guns - especially high-powered ones - can kill more people more efficiently. For example, a knife-wielding maniac may be able to kill 1 - 2 people before he is taken down; one with an AK can mow down dozens in a minute.

(And for the record, I hate guns but believe in the right to own them).

Been a long few days, both at work and personal. Tuesday night was the Christmas Party for the local fire/ rescue department. Had a great time, made myself chat, talk to strangers even tho I wanted to hide in a cornor.



They gave me a plaque for helping with the Haunted House makeup looks. :) Said it was the most compliments they had gotten from those who went to it. :D The man who gave me the award, the man who asked me to do it, did a speach about me even, how I said "Sure, sounds like fun." and how they couldn't of done it without me. Ahhhh... they just didn't have the looks down, but once the ladies learned the steps, how to do the effect they was old hands at the looks by the end of it. The fire cheif made a point to thank me even.



Even got a "Hello" from the mayor, an old teacher from high school. Funny as we couldn't stand each other then. :) Time changes things it seems... but I still remember him reporting me to the principal. Of course that lead to a meeting between the three of us, and a few changes in his teaching style. Yeap, we don't like each other. But I waves back, smiles, did the "Hello, how are you?" crap.



Sure they will ask me to help next year- and if I am able I will give all the help I can. Just need to learn, try out some things before it. Really want to work on the use of makeup for the looks, not so much latex/blood. Hard to do tho when you got men with facial hair, few with glasses.



After this week I am going to enjoy putting my sore feet up, and watch a movie tonight.

Reading this article about Dept. of Defense trying to save money and wonder...



They spent millions of dollars on this new DP3 system to handle the household area. To cut down the cost of the labor for the folks at the base- our base still has the three men working each day, working toward that pension for life.



I also have a shipment I offered to deliver this morning sitting here, along with a man I am paying, as we wait to get an answer from a mover in Alaska.



Time zones- they aren't even open, don't answer the phone.



So I sit, paying this man, as we wait.. and wait. Instead of me calling the Base and getting this on the move- we wait.



Way to save money. *Thumbs up*

When I read the words siege or war pertaining to this website it just makes me smile. I mean really? What can you do? Other then block and the one ratings, what are you going to do?



*daydreams*



Rat thrust the plastic cocktail sword up in the air. “We are at WAR! Men the wall soldiers!” as she turns to look at the Lego wall she built. “We stand for all that we love- be it cheese or hair gel.” She marches back and forth, the lose plastic toy helmet she ripped off the GI Joe doll bouncing on her head. “We can’t take this laying down, these blocks and one rates! WE WILL RISE and end this horror we find ourselves in.”



She moves to her first in command, the trusty teddy bear. “Look- the men are in line, ready to fight at my command.” The teddy’s glassy eyes reflect the dust bunnies lined up behind the wall, along with some stray toys she found about the House. “We will go down in a blaze of glory if they come to take our… uh… if they come this way. My horse- where is my steady and life like stead!”



Rat puts her plastic sword down and pushes the toy pink Barbie size horse in front of the wall, using the Lego wall to help herself up on it, her helmet slowly moving to cover the left side of her face. “My sword! Give me my sword so I can lead us in battle!” She straighten the helmet, holds out her hand and waits. With a heavy sigh, she looks to her Teddy. “See that? No one is willing to move, afraid they will give away their position on the wall. Smart … my warriors are so smart. I will get my own sword- show that I am not afraid of this tyrant who has declared war on us.”



Rat started to step back on the wall only to lose her footing, sliding off the plastic even as she tried to stop her fall with her claws. She stand quickly, putting the helmet back on, patting her horse. “She is ready to go, throwing me in her excitement is all. No worry men- your commander is alright.” She runs, gets her sword and stand to figure out how to climb back… Rat let’s out a girly scream of terror, falling into her teddy’s arms as she ran from the touch at her thigh. Looking back she sees a dust bunny had move in the air current. “Now now- no breaking ranks. Get back in line.” She used her sword to lead it back in place between a angry bird toy and a slinky. “Stand strong men, we are a army of pain. We will go forth and do...what any army does online does. We will talk harsh, we will type threats that mean nothing, we will be so delusional that they will say we will need meds.”



Rat climbs back on her plastic horse and raises her sword in the air, her helmet, leaning to one side. “WE WILL FIGHT!”



*shakes head* Sorry but I think it is funny, cute even.

This is an outrage! We're being blocked and "down-rated" by a jackass who is doing it for the attention he knows he's gonna get. Someone needs to teach this dick a lesson!



Erm....no. And if a "lesson can be taught", why bother?



First of all, we can block whomever we damn well please- unless the one you wanna block is a full admin (there are reasons for that) and no admin will ever punish that. Why? Personal choice. We were given the block option to use it. Period.



And "down-rating"? Please. There isn't any such thing. People say "down-rating" like a number lower than 10 is suddenly fraudulent or invalid. I say this: GET OVER YOURSELVES. Geesh, people....it's a number, plain and simple.

Been a busy weekend. Saturday we (Cat and her family) and I went shopping for grave yard flowers at the hobby store a few towns away. Proud of myself, only spent what I needed to, and only what I had to spend.



Then Sunday I went over to take photos of the kids. The youngest, we will call him Boo here, has autism and doesn't like bright lights. So I played with the settings to try and limit the flash, taking it out all together on most. Some came out well, others not so well. But I should be able to lighten them up in edit. Really- some of his came out good, and more important he seemed to have fun. Got to where he would just 'model' for me at the end. lol



While I don't like taking photos of people, I have to say these two kids I don't mind at all.



Then Boo's mom points out that folks with artistic children can't ever get a good shot of their kids because the big department stores photo studios will not take the time or effort to help get them. They do maybe 20 shots and expect you to buy photos they get.



That bothers me. I mean I understand the reason of it, making money and all. Other customer waiting. But most folks can't afford a real studio setting, and the hourly rate of a photographers. That could cost in the hundreds of dollars. And she said anytime she puts up Boo's photo on Facebook other Mother's of artistic children ask her who did them, as it was impossible to find a photographer who will work with them.



So... think I have found the way I want to help these folks. I mean- what is it going to cost me? My camera is paid for, laptop and edit programs are mine. Other then time and the desire to give these parents a way to have a photo of the child they know and love, it cost me nothing.



Late to be trying to do it this year, I know. But I think I will put my name out there, offer to help these folks. Life is hard enough that you can't even get a photo of your child.



Anyway... just makes me sad to of learned of this, and coming to understand the trouble they face for such a simple thing as a photo. Most of these kids most likely had a melt down just going into the store, then sitting and waiting. Parents must of been driven crazy too, trying to keep the child happy till photo time.



When I can come in, in their homes, and take the hours that is needed, play around, let them have a break and play some, or even come back later if they are having a bad day. While I understand a photographer will not do this and why, great thing about this being a hobby for me as I can. :)



Hope I took good enough photos of Boo to lead me to more parents who will give me a shot at helping them.



On another note- went with the family to see Twilight last movie. Have to say I liked it. Loved the ending. :D

Troll mind set-



“Look! Look at all the journals made about me!“

“And the kismets! My name on a screen- everyone knows me NOW!“

“These people are fucking stupid, getting all upset over this shit.“

“HAHAHAHAHHAHHAHHAHAHHAHHAHAHA!”

“Love the attention- what can I do next? Oh…let’s do honor hits”

“God man- you got to read this message, this dude is freaking crazy! I love it!!”

"I can't wait to coming online, to all these messages, journals, kismets, rants. They can't get enough of me!"

"I have attention- even if it is hate. Someone is paying attention!"

"Let's go into the Vamp Box and try to start a fight... sure I will be attacked there."



VS-



“Damn… no one is getting upset by my ones, blocks.”

“What does it take to find some fun here?”

“This fucking site is boring as hell, why do these dumb asses come here? Losers.”

“What is the point?”

"No one even knows I am here."

"Screw this site, waste of time."



*profile falls away for inactive*





*Holds up a egg*



This is your online time



*Throws egg at the wall, breaks it*



This is you paying attention to bullshit on a website that let's them ruin your fun online. You are the one giving them the power to take it from you.



*Picks up a rubber ball*



This is you having fun instead, to spite the trolls.



*Throws the ball, catchs it as it comes back*



I hope you get the point trying to be made here.

Seems a refresher is needed on kismets. Kismets are treated, ruled the same as the Forum and the Vampbox on flaming. One of the reason you are asked to remove them-



"Rude, obnoxious, hate, or flame posts"





You can not flame a member using the VR screen name. You will be asked to remove and if you don't, you will have your kismet suspended.



As all you guys should know- trolls live on the attention. Keep it up and they will just sit behind their computers, making fun of all the drama they can stir, how you are acting out.



Duck, Water, Let it roll off ya.



You are giving them all they need to stay here.

You know, I find that rich coming from you. Negative honor with no name and that is what pisses you off. So you go around giving it out hoping you 'hit' the one who gave it to you.



The rich part is you gave it out, hand over hand, with no name. When you got taken down a peg for cheating- the one you and your little friend was hitting everyday with no 'name' is no longer on the negative ten.



You loved it when you were doing it. Can't have it both way there.



And by the way- I haven't give you any negative, but given plenty to those below you to move them up. :)

Cooked a whole chicken I found on sale. It was huge, like over 7 lbs. Don't know what I did but it sucked. :( Blah..blah blah blah. And I seasoned it even, shoved a onion and lemon up its butt. Hope it taste better as chicken salad for the next few days.



Put a bagel in the oven to warm up, thinking that with a little cream cheese would take the taste away. Till I burned it, leaving it too long as I washed the dishes, forgot about it. :(



Today is not the day for me to cook.

Yesterday I went over to Cat's and spent a few hours. I still sound like a frog, and the pain between my eyes still makes me cringe at noise and light but it was good to see her, the family, kids.



I sat on the couch and watched it unfold-



Her sis said something to Cat *Nightgame here* about her being a smart ass. Of course Cat gave a remark back. That lead to her sister picking up a roll of ribbon (she does craft, make wreaths so it is about the place) and she throws it at Cat, hitting her right in the glasses. The roll weight? A few ounces, at most. Mind you- they are sitting in recliners next to each other with a end table and lamp between. O.o



Cat threw it back, missing her sister by a mile, and landing it on the floor. By then they are laughing at each other, yelling that one can't throw worth shit, the other one about how she almost put a eye out. By then her sister's child, Boo as he is called, started in on the fun, laughing.



I sat there thinking how much I had missed this crazy family/ home. :)



Today was shopping day for the family as I had not been in two weeks. Safe to say I am worn the freak out.



Now just need to call the boys and tell them the one job left for the week call and put it off. :(

They got a whole 4 hours this week.



Time to write up the layoff slips I guess.



I called a job I estimated a move for, Goverment move. I knew it was a waste of time as they always take the money and the men/ folks in the office do it themselves. Sure enough= they are doing it this time at the end of the year, into the 1st of Jan 2013.



Is it bad I hope it snows a freaking 4 foot on them? Or cold sleet rain?



I know I know.... what you send out comes back.

Coming off Imagesinwords journal-



I could name 5 members on this site I would tell any new member to stay away from. Why? All about the drama. Always into the 'online' fights, calling names, using info they 'gain' as friends to attack.



I could name names, make a list for all to see, as I can do that as a member.



But then that is giving them power that I will not hand them.



Just saying- watch what you say to folks here as your friends can be *and with these 5* will be the ones who hate you in a few weeks.



Harsh, but true.



Reason I can list the folks I talk to here. Those I have meet in real life, and about 4 more. So that is.. 12 in all. And they know who they are. :) They make a difference in my life.



I have never had someone 'turn' on me here, had the name calling. But I have seen it enough to know it happens, no matter how close you start.



And those 5? Oh- they know who they are. They know who they are well as I don't have a damn thing to do with them.

Sis called to check on me late yesterday, about dark. She sent me some meds she had, over the counter, to see if it would help with the mucus.



It did. Still got the headacke, sound like a frog but better today. I called to see if I could get into the Dr tho, as I have had this since Thanksgiving day. Nope- Wen.



Hoping this will get it gone by then.



Staying in this week is helping, since we have two jobs this week. One today that I didn't have to go out in, only a 4 hour move.



Sis came down and we got 5 bills out tho. :) Only 4 more to be caught up for the year on her billing. Leaves me the local bills that I can do on my own, asking her to just check on the grammer. And I still got all the checks/ deposits to sort out for the companies for taxes.



But feel like I am catching back up to life.

Taking the advice given = resting tonight. Housework got done, but the fall decorations are still up. Just got weak, worn out after a few hours of catching up the home stuff, 8 loads of laundry.



Time to eat some frozen BBQ I unthawed, bake a tatter, and movies. Then bed early for me.



Wanted to go shopping for the flowers for the graves, put up the Fall, dig out the Christmas decorations, and trip to buy some food in today. But knew that wasn't going to happen when I finally got the housework done.



I also wanted to go take some photos at local places. I had to cancel the hospital visit and the man that owns it said he was busy till 2013. So that trip is pushed back a few months. :( I just hope he doesn't change his mind about letting me into the place.
