Wild Birds

2008-11-18T11:09:00.000-05:00

The winter birds are enjoying the sunflower seeds I keep out for them.
I think this is a pair of some kind of Sparrow. The one on the left has a lot of red so it must be a HE.

I Voted

2008-11-04T18:16:00.000-05:00

Craig & I got up early, well I did, and was at the polls at 6:40am.
This is the line behind us at 6:52.
There was about 30-35 people in front of us.
Voting went smoothly for me, was done and out at 7:21.
For Craig, someone took the PEN so he had to go call for one,
when the guy who had it said sorry & gave it back.
Then the scanner didn't want to take his ballot, he hd to try about 3-4 times.
And he has the cold/flu and missed 2 days work.

NOT JOE

2008-10-28T17:33:00.004-04:00

I'm NOT "Joe the Plummer"!!!!

****I PAY MY TAXIES****

Go Vote

I'm waiting till tuesday.

Craig & I like to go together and hopefully stand in a loooooong line.

Voting is your birthright, so use it, don't lose it

OBAMA--- OBAMA ALL THE WAY.

Rays

2008-10-25T13:29:00.000-04:00

This is the jersey that the Devil Rays wore on thier openning day!
I think is was in 1997. Where I was working, we framed a jersey everyday for a year.
The jerseys was auctioned off for charity. Since I did most of the work, Randy gave me
a jersey. The Rays was very picky on the jersey count too.
When I wasn't working on them they had to be kept locked up.
NOW the Rays are playing in the World series!!!!!!

Old Times at Laurelbrook

2008-09-05T09:49:00.003-04:00

School Banquet-----------I'm 2 on left front row, ------------ Me on left
----------------------- Sister Linda in red (4 right)-----------------------

I was going through some old photos and I came across these.
They brought back the bad old days at slave camp LB!!!
This is a BIG deal at LB, kinda like a school prom, but without the dance or a real date with someone you might like. You were paired up with a guy of the Zollinger 's choice.
I was always paired with the sorriest guy in school, you know, the one who picks his nose. Hell, my regular dinning room seat was with Claudia, I know she couldn't help it, but this poor very over weight girl smelled and she had skin rash that flaked off and she scratched ALL the time.
Oh well, back to the prom. All the girls that year had to sew their dress, along with all the other jobs you had. and if you didn't have folks to buy the material & sewing notions, you could do EXTRA work, like babysit the Zollinger's brats, and then the school would get your stuff for you. NO, you didn't get to go to Dayton and buy your own stuff, you might run away and try getting LB in trouble. ha ha
Gotta go see if Slave Camp LB has gone to court yet.
See Ya

I've been BLESSED!!!!!!! (lol)
Look , this dove on my backyard bird feeder has the "Mother Mary" on her chest.
Sure wish I could catch her and sell her on EBay, I could get rich. I know there's a lot of folks out in the world, unlike me, who'd believe its a MIRACLE. Craig says that Doves are good to eat, I personally don't care to find out if that's true. I like the Cardinal's and Parrots the best, they are loud and colorful. I wake up to the music from the birds everyday, lots better than the dogs next door.

Laurelbrook--(LB)

2008-07-11T09:08:00.003-04:00

I see that slave camp Laurelbrook has a new bolg site
http://laurelbrook22.adventistschoolconnect.org./
The school has a court date starting the week of August 18.
Sure wish I could be there to watch them get whatever hell the Gov. can give them.
All those folks who read Linda's blog and was upset on her observation of how the churches have changed over the years should spend some time at Laurelbrook!!!!! Laurelbrook is no better then the poor folks in Texas where the state came in & took all the kids. The only difference, that I see, is LB only has high school age kids to do ALL the SLAVE jobs. Plus the kids are not allowed to have boyfriend/girlfriend relationship, unless you want to do free labor, after you have worked 6 hours and school for 4 hours , (dig up a tree stump). I see they had 5 kids graduated this year, poor things, now they need to take the GED test to get into any normal college.
For the Government folks who read my blog, PLEASE call me!!! I'm on your side, 30 plus years later I still hate LB, Bob & Ruthie Z, The Olsons( for killing my dog) and all it stands for.

Spring, to me, is the best time of the year. The flowers are in bloom and the trees are bright green with all thier new leaves. Every spring I get to watch the Daddy cardinal teach the baby how to eat from the feeder. Here is a photo I got of the baby. I was surprized he was even looking at me. Enjoy Spring!!!

New Babies!!!

2008-03-11T10:27:00.010-04:00

One Red male, Two females

CherryBarb Fish We have triplets!!!!
yep, our Cherry Barb laid about 300 eggs and we ended up with 3 babies. That is very good because you suppose to seperate the fish from the eggs and feed the new babies just hatched brine shrimp.

Baby is on the light rock next to the tip of the red rock (click on him to enlarge.)

Work in progress

2008-01-30T07:17:00.000-05:00

We have been working on a 75 gallon fish tank for some time. First we moved my tiny, no window, kitchen to my 8x10, with window, utility room. Installed a tankless water heater and a reverse osmosis system. Lucky we had water and electric from the old sink being there. We ran the tubing to the ice maker and to my new sink for cooking & drinking. Its still a work in progress. My kids gave us lots of rock and we had some wood & stones so now we have bunches of hiding places for my fishies. We've been getting the tank seeded with bio balls from our 30 gal. tank. We added 3 fishies to the tank and a few plants and all seem to be doing ok.

Fun Web site

2008-01-10T08:33:00.000-05:00

I have added new photos to my site if you'd like to check them out.
I also found this fun site to take little test from your brain smarts to drug smarts.
All you nurses should do good on that test, ha ha I don't care if I do bad on these test I just blame it on LEAD poisoning as a child, before moving to Carver Creek. There we didn't have painted walls, come to think about it we didn't even have walls the frist year, but we did have snow on the bed, and kreo oil on the school room floors.

Season Greetings

2007-12-14T06:51:00.000-05:00

Another year is almost to come to an end and time to say hello to all my family and friends.

Craig & I had a good year, along with our pets, BoBo, Buster, Ringo, & Star.
Craig, Star, & I went on a wonderful road trip. We took off the interstate and went the scene route. Through the Blue Ridge Mt.s & Chattahoochee Nat'l Forest. Stayed the night in Sweetwater TN. where Star got to have frenchie fries for supper, and her favorite,"awful waffles" with butter & syrup for breakfast. Then we went through the Appalachian Mts and Daniel Boone Nat'l Forest and on to visit Linda & Jim in Ohio. We stayed for 2 nights in a guess apartment , thanks Linda & Jim, and had a short but nice visit. We went to see the colorful leaves and to see the dam. For supper we went to a great buffet, Jim even took food home for ChingChing & Sheba.

Star got to have her photo shoot by Linda

Then we went to my sister-in-laws in Jeffersonville, IN. Bev took me to the largest Halloween shop, 2 floors, where I got this huge SNAKE. Of course I wore it around my neck to pass out candy!!!! The adults was more scared then the kids.

I also got to meet Aunt Shirley and cuz'n Jeri Ann. I've already told Craig for my b'day (6/15) I need a ticket so I can to go junkin' with Jeri Ann. (Any one who wants to donate to the cause feel free to do so, ha ha) We stayed at the Comfort Inn near Bevs. She has 2 cutie doggies and Star might have hurt them if left alone. Star got to get pampered at daycare, even watch movies, while we went around town with Bev.

From Bev's we went to Makers Mark Brewery in KY. ( they was closed) then we went to Lookout Mt. in Tn/GA and drove around the mt top to see ALL those houses hangin' over the edge. We went by the SDA church at Wildwood and across the RR tracks to see if I could find where I lived when I was 3 or 4. Linda talks about it in her book http://dustyangels.blogspot.com/

I didn't find the basement against the tracks this time but way back in 1970 when I lived near there I did. I just wanted to get a photo, but oh well its best to let dead dogs lie.(how ever that sayin' goes)We stayed overnight at our friends Revis & Deb in Daytona Beach. Deb make lasagna for supper and good pina colatas, and Revis made me a fire!!!
We had a great trip but was glad to be back in MY water bed!!!

Cuz'n Cindy and hubby, Fred, took great care of the cats and the house while we were away, Thanks again.

I've spent my year enjoying being a house wife and taking care of the pets. I'm still waiting for a court date for SS Disability. Craig is working still at Otero Engineering designing new shopping mall parking lots and all the drainage and such. Thy do every thing up to 3 foot from the building.

Thats what been happenin in my life, not to much to complain about, just glad to have a happy, loving home.

Wishing you lots of goodies from Santa and a GREAT new year.

T-Day at The Aarons

2007-11-27T11:45:00.000-05:00

Revis and Deb have been friends of ours for several years and it is always a pleasure to go vist them. They live near Daytona, FL, 2 1/2 hour drive, on a large parsel of land, you can even shoot the guns and NO COPS!!! Star loves to run free and I think she fell in love with Revis because he's always doing something outside and she's following right behind him. until she got a sandspur in her paw.
We had a great dinner and good conversation, Star was even allowed to sit in her stroller buy the table. Dave, Deb's brother-in-law, kept coming to the other end of the table just to feed Star turkey. We all had a wonderful time. Thanks Deb, Revis & Toni

Fall is Here

2007-10-02T07:23:00.000-04:00

Fall is here and I'm counting the days till we get to see the fall colors while traveling up north. I hope to find some Indian moccasin when going through the Cherokee Nat'l Forest. We're also going to Danial Boone Forest, at lest to Williamsburg KY. We will be traveling interstate part way but the scenic roads between Atlanta & Sweetwater TN. Then to Jim & Linda's and on to Bev's. On the way back will stop at Chattanooga, Wildwood GA, stay overnite around Macon then off the interstate and go to Waycross GA, then to Revis & Deb, stay overnite then HOME!!

Wendy will be staying at our place and take care of the 3 cats.

Check out the photos I've added to my albums on PICASA

Gone Tankless

2007-07-13T11:07:00.000-04:00

I got my pantry at last.

When we moved the kitchen to another room and put the hot-water tank in my pantry, Craig promised someday, when they got cheaper, we'd replace it with a tank-less water-heater.

Five years later, that day has come.

Now we are putting in a reverse osmosis system to the ice maker and the 75 gallon fish tank we're setting up.

Have a GREAT FRIDAY 13

Ring of Babies

2007-06-29T06:21:00.000-04:00

When Bobby was living in Gainesville, in this most beautiful home with a pool, I plucked this two leaf palm plant growing out from the side of a large palm. I planted it and not thinking in about ten years it would grow and do so good. Will now it has babies!!! They are ALL around the trunk. I've never seen one reproduce like this one has. We was talking about move it because it was in the way of the screen porch & AC. Now we really have to dig it up and move it so it can spread way out.

Linda Left!!!

2007-06-20T05:44:00.000-04:00

Linda is standing by our Grandpa/Dad. This photo was taken in 1918 and is still in the original frame. We're sitting on the bench behind the print shop in Ybor City where we played, or hid from Grandma, as kids.

I was great to have Linda here awhile. We got to go back in time. Visiting with high school friends, and going to places we lived & played at as young kids.

Star says don't leave me out!!!!! I loved have my Aunt Linda here too. When we went to bed last night Star went to Linda's bed looking and barking for Her Auntie. I had to show her Linda was gone and she finely came to bed.

DOGS

2007-06-07T06:10:00.000-04:00

I'm in my computer room and Stars barking.

She starts going crazy with her piercing bark.

I go to she what the fess is all about and this is what I find!!!

The damn dogs across the street with my garbage!!!

There's garbage in four other yards!! I grab the camera, get a couple photos, look for life, other then dogs, but can't see none.

I'm looking for the animal control number when the old man

comes out. I go out, slam my house door, 'cause now I'm pissed, and the old man says to me, I'm sorry, we'll clean it all up, we're goin' get rid of the dogs. Of course I watch to make sure they clean it ALL up. The skinny younger guy & his Fat mean bitch wife ( I watch her chase him around the yard with a GUN) was out there with gloves on picking it all up. People like them give poor dogs a bad rap. I can't understand why people want pets and then just lock then in the back yard and show NO attention or love.

LOVE, HUG, & KISS your PET DAILY

JUSTICE FOR FEE

2007-05-11T07:07:00.000-04:00

For those of us in Florida, who know and love Fee, we have spent this week in court loving & supporting her.
It was very difficult to watch her go through the trial.
Having to relive the brutal rape and tell strangers what happen to her.

I know women that this has happen to and they would never go through a trial.

Fee is a strong young lady and did GREAT!!!!!!!! We are all PROUD of her.
The guy was found GUILTY on all charges and is looking at 30 years.
He also has two more trails, starting Monday, for attempted rape on other women.

I love ya Fee!!!

Justice on its way!!!!

2007-04-12T09:11:00.000-04:00

"Federal Department of Labor is trying to get an injunction to stop the Vocational Training Program at Laurelbrook" (laurelbrook trailblazer)
They go to court on May 14 & 15. I hope they get in all kinds of trouble for thier SLAVE LABOR ways. When I was at Laurelbrook I worked 8 hours and went( if lucky) to a so call school 4 hours. I went to LB web site and OH MY GOODNESS, I seen a girl in jeans WITHOUT a skirt over them. I see, like all christians, even Laurelbrook has LOWERED its standards.
Ellen G White must be rolling over in her grave. I remember getting FREE LABOR for rolling up my skirt & showing my knees when I went out with my Aunt Louise & Uncle Bill. My only mistake was I forgot to UNROLL my skirt and HIDE my knees when I got back on campus. We won't even get into having to SLAVE LABOR for the summer to paid your school bill. That was 12-14 hours a day.
Keep up the GREAT work Labor Dept.
CLOSE Laurelbrook down!!!!
At least fine the F'in Hell out of them.
It is nothing but a SLAVE LABOR camp.

Star's Good Friday

2007-04-05T12:25:00.000-04:00

We got our little Star on Good Friday a year ago.
She has brought a lot of joy to our household.
Ringo and her get along the best. When they're not
beating each other up they're sleeping together.
Star goes crazy when her Daddy leaves for work.
She trys to keep him from putting on his shoes, and
barks and runs to the bedroom jumping all over the place
when he kisses me good-bye.
She even bites at his pant legs.
When she hears the garage door she stars barking
and waits by the door, then she gets in her chair
until Daddy picks her up.
She such a Daddy's girl!!! Momma loves her too.
Stars wishies everyone a GOOD FRIDAY!!!

I see they keep chomping thier way through OHIO!!

Loud Sounds

2007-03-29T10:36:00.000-04:00

I now have LOUD sounds in my car.

Craig installed a JVC Radio/CD/ Cassette and ipod player.
With MB Quart Reference 6 1/2'' speakers in the front door, tweeters on the window frame.

We installed a (7521a) Infinity Amp. It has 97Wx2.

It powers the (9623i) 9''x6'' Infinity speakers in the rear window.

The only real hard part was running the power cord to the battery. I'm going to keep my car so might-as-well have great sounds!! I need a tag that say "UGLE BETCH" 'cause I'm not even painting her. Then I don't care if people bump her in the parking lots.

Pet Foods

2007-03-23T13:56:00.000-04:00

I know that the recall is for 42 brands of can, but I'm not so sure the dry isn't also BAD.

We've always had Star on dry Nutro. We bought the last bag about 4 weeks ago. Since then she has been throwing-up a few times and has almost stop eating. She would eat a couple bites at a time and never eating it all. I went and got her Beneful by PURINA and she eats her 1/2 cup food in 30 min. and so far not sick. Lucky for me the cats have only had PURINA dry for indoor cats.

BOW WOW Please feed your pets only PURINA foods. MEOW MEOW

My Catus

2006-12-15T08:17:00.000-05:00

My Catus are so beautiful this year. A couple have died due to lack of care. I have a yellow catus that Wendy gave me last summer and it is full of buds. I've never seen it bloom so excited for it to open up.

Santa

2006-12-11T12:05:00.000-05:00

The stockings are hung

by the HDTV with care

'cause Santa don't mind

if no chimney is there.

On X-Mas eve, in all his attire,

He'll pop out of my TV

not worring about catching

his pants on fire.

He'll wink at the Cats

Give Star a pat

And tell them to be Quite

so no one knows where he's at.

He'll leave me some presents

and be on his way.

but as he was leaving

Star heard him say;

" That HDTV is better then any

Old Reindeer an Sleigh"

Happy Hoildays

Great New Year

The Zikes

Craig,Sandy,Bo,Buster,Ringo & Star

Star is waiting of her pop corn. She listens and when the popping is done
she goes crazy running from kitchen to sofa and back.
She thinks it takes daddy to loooong to share. haha

Frist road trip.

2006-11-29T12:33:00.000-05:00

Star got to go on her frist long trip.
We went to Daytona beach to see The Aarons.
Star learned to play Frisbee, or teach us.
She brought it back a few times, then learned if she stood
on it a human would come to her and rethrow the frisbee.
When asked if she wants to go and to get in her chair,
she gets in chair & waits for her lease, but in the truck
all she will do is lay in her bed.
She was very friendly with everyone at the reststop
and the bar , she took us for beers.

Star just got home from a day at the vets. She was spayed , got a chip and the last of her shots. It was so sad to see her whimpping all the way home. I don't think she was into much pain, just glad to have Dad & Mom back. She went to sleep around one this morning after I gave her back her chewie bone and made steps for her to get on & off the bed.
Stars doing good today in fact she's barking & trying to get Ringo to play with her. She is all of 14 lbs. !!!

We are changing the water anyway, it will be nice for the week-end. We change the water every 3-4 month. Bobby & Alison are back fron vacation and will be coming to vist this week-end.

PLASTERED

2006-06-08T08:20:00.000-04:00

I got PLASTERED at Limb & Brace. Sean warpped me up with plaster so a brace can be made to fit. I'll have a soft foam brace to wear for 12-14 weeks. When all is done I should be able to walk with out so much pain. The L5-S1 vertabra are rubbing together so the doc will put in spacer and aline the bones back up then fuse the bones. Sounds like fun, NOT. Linda will be here to take good care of me!!!!!

After all these years I found out I have "A-positive" blood. If it wasn't for up coming surgery I'd never known. Also my cholesterol is 228, not bad, borderline. I have one more unit to give then the blood work is done, I hope. Go wednesday for the fitting of the brace I'll wear for 12 -14 weeks. Then wait for Linda to come hold my hand for surgery on the 21st. Don't know how I'd got throught life with out Linda in it. She has always taken SUPERB care of me!!!!!!!!!!!!!
