Took a Day off...no politics, no Internet, no phones

Yesterday I woke up with mental overload. There are so many things going on at the same time some more worrisome than others but equally draining the little motivation and energy I have left. Decided to give myself the day off.

I did not turn on my usual cable news channels, avoided the local news, did not turn on the computer and let the answering machine do its job.

I worked on removing more weeds with the hula hoe and dealing with the cats in particular "that black cat" who is making me more stressed out by the day.  I will write about that when I get a chance at Walter's World.

I did, however, watch my Spurs and perhaps I should have avoided that as well. Though they won it was only by one point and I practically had a heart attack. Were it not because of these darn medications I would have had a couple of beers to celebrate and de-stress.

This morning I treated myself to the breakfast buffet at Sirloin Stockade. Yes, I know I am not supposed to eat bacon so sue me...it went well with Tabasco sauce and an unsweetened ice tea.

They ran out of Menudo so had to wait a while for the next batch but it was worth it.

I have mentioned that I buy most of my Terlingua clothes at a store called Fallas. They sell irregular items, factory rejects, and cheap crap from China. This is where I bought my $5.00 Terlingua coat and jacket last year.

Went to walk off my breakfast and ran into an item my uncle wants. They have the same items as Marshalls but at a much cheaper price. Though it would cost me more to mail it to him than the item itself.

He wants Christmas motif pajama pants.  They had them for $1.99 but I will have to find out what size he wears.

This pillow made me smile because I saw that on an Aunty Acid saying the other day :-)

I'm sorry, did I roll my eyes out loud?

Good night.  May you all have Terlingua Dreams.


Aunty Acid Saying of the Day

It was a foggy, rainy, windy, gray and cold day

If you have been reading me for a while you know that I do not like cold or hot weather extremes. I am fine in the 60 to 80-degree range but face it...this is West Texas...the range I want is never going to happen aside for a couple of weeks in the Spring.

Today we had a low of 45 and a high of 54 degrees.  As I type this it is raining and we are at 45 degrees with a feel like temperature of 40.  I am freezing to death and have the heat set at 78... I can just see my Canadian readers laughing as they read this :D

I will make it short tonight as I missed my regular shows so I could watch a Spurs game and finally see them pull off a much needed win this evening.

Good night.  May you all have Terlingua Dreams.
