Well, we're all in the new house now. We're mostly unpacked, all that is really left is this office a little in my bedroom and then putting pictures up on the wall. The move was quite the trip. I'll blog about it after we're all settled in here. Ya know, I'm beginning to think it's physically impossible for us to move and NOT have any issues! It was definitely something else! VERY COLD and SNOWY! NOT NOT NOT a good combination!
I'll write up a little something as soon as I have a little more time.
I hope all is well with everyone reading (if you're still reading). Drop me a comment here and let me know how you are!
Hugs

Thanksgiving update and a few other doodads
Well, looks like Thanksgiving has been canceled at my aunt's house this year. Seems she's sprung a leak in her kitchen and bathroom. Unless we all wanna be water-logged and wearing our scuba gear, we are not to attend. Soooo, figuring we didn't wanna miss out on EVERYTHING, Scott and I decided to have our Thanksgiving feast complete with all three of our kids at a wonderful restaurant called Wild Cat Inn Supper Club. Reservations for 5 at 5. Sounds yummy!! (Please note the happy inflection in the tone of my voice as I no longer have to pack, move AND cook!!)
Also, we're gonna be moving on Friday. Everything is falling into place. All the utilities are being transferred, shut off and turned on...whichever way it needed to be. Unfortunately when you move from northwestern Wisconsin to southeastern Wisconsin, not too many of the utility companies are the same. Oh well, it's done...that's my point.
I'm cruising right along on the packing! The kitchen is done, the bedroom is done, the bathroom is done, the living room is mostly done (minus the computer I'm using now and the one next to it that sits dormant most of the time because we think it's possessed by the devil himself).
I am now informing all of you that I will be offline from tomorrow night (Thanksgiving night) until sometime on Monday. Apparently the cable company doesn't like to work Thanksgiving weekend either! LOL
I managed to slice my thumb while doing some work today so I'm on this short little break. Being the "work-through-the-pain" kinda gal that I am, I just wrapped my thumb in paper towel and continued about what I was doing until I could get time to wash it off and wrap it in bandages. It appears I did a pretty good job of it though, about an inch and a half vertically down my thumb. DAMN blood thinners! I can't even cut myself without bleeding like a stuck pig! It's done bleeding now though, Thank God and I'm just about ready to continue on my crusade of getting every damn thing we own into a box somehow!
I hope you all have a FANTASTIC Thanksgiving and are able to spend it with the ones you love! I will see you all on Monday as I probably won't have time to post again tomorrow.
With love and kindness (and a cut thumb),
Andi

The good, the bad and the ugly
The good...
We move in 4 days. The day after Thanksgiving. The good thing about that is that NO ONE moves the day after Thanksgiving and there are plenty of trucks available at Uhaul that day.
The bad...
I was suppose to bring my candied sweet potatoes, and a trifle to Thanksgiving and now most of my food is packed. I left out the stuff that I needed for my sweet potatoes, but just called my aunt and let her know I couldn't bring the trifle. My mom is bringing pies so at least we'll have a dessert there.
The ugly...
We're moving the end of November in Wisconsin! It's suppose to be cold so it'll really SUCK moving then!! LOL

What a difference 2 hours makes
I went out at 3:30 this afternoon, son in tow to run a couple errands. "Thirty minutes, tops" I say to my son as we leave. A little background here quickly. We live RIGHT on the edge of the city. We have a neighbor lady who is about 85 years old who lives about another 1/8 of a mile outside of town. The woman (whom we shall refer to from here on out as Mrs. B) has no family. She has outlived everyone. She never had children as her husband passed away when they were very young. So when Mrs. B has to go to town, she walks. Walks everywhere. Scotto and I have always been neighborly and picked her up to take her into town or drive her home. Today was no different.
I saw Mrs. B on my way into town. She was headed home. I pulled over and asked her to hop in and she did. She then told me that she was just going home to pick up her prescription bottles and then had to go back to the pharmacy (not in so many words though, as she primarily speaks German and her English is not great). So I took her home and waited 10 minutes for her to grab her stuff and took her back to the pharmacy. We waited about 20 minutes and when she hadn't come out, we let her know we had to run to the bank before it closed and we'd be right back. We did this and came back to the pharmacy, and she was still inside. We went in and at the counter was Mrs. B and a very young male adult. He just looked at me and gave me that "help me" look and shook his head. I asked what was wrong and was told that Mrs. B had pulled two bottles of stool softener off the shelf and opened them, safety seal and all...looking at the pills to see if that indeed was what she took. Of course, the pharmacy can no longer sell them, so they tell her they're going to charge her for them. This, she does NOT understand. The poor kid behind the counter had no idea what to say next. She had two prescription medicines there to pick up too. We decided that the stool softeners she had opened were the right ones and put those (as well as the two prescriptions and another full bottle of stool softeners she had brought with her) into a plastic bag. On this one she wrote "take" in german. Then she put the old medicines in a paper bag, and on this one, she wrote "do not take" in german. We got everything settled. She paid for her prescriptions and stool softeners and we started to leave. The young man behind the counter said to me "you know she said she was going to take one pill from each bottle", meaning 3 different stool softeners plus her prescription pills. I told him I'd talk to her about it after we left and he said "oh good" LOL. Poor kid.
I got her in the car and asked her if there were anywhere else she needed to go. She said she wanted to go to the courthouse but it was already closed. I wrote my phone number in big numbers on the back of my business card and spoke to her about how she is only to take ONE pill out of ONE white bottle a day. NOT all three. She wrote this down on the back of the business card, on the front of the business card and on two places on the bag she was carrying. I hope she remembers. I made it clear if she did take all three, she'd end up sick. She said she understood. I really hope she did.
I asked her on the way home if she had any food. She started listing off the things she has in her house and I figured she has plenty of food. I told her to call me if she needs anything from me. I also asked her if she wanted I would make her some meals she could eat during the week. She said she cooked. I'm happy with that. I dropped her off at home and waited until she got in the house. Then I went about my errands.
My half hour errand run took me from 3:30 to 6:15. I know I'll hear from Mrs. B tomorrow, so I'm ready to take her wherever she needs to go. I just wish she knew someone around here to help her out after we leave. I know she's outlived everyone in her family. How awful it must be to be so old that everyone you ever knew is now gone. Remind me to be nicer to my kids so this never happens to me. I'm gonna miss Mrs. B when we leave.

Whatta great weekend!
Scotto came home pretty late Saturday night. It was probably around 10:30pm. We decided to go somewhere to eat because I had not eaten all day. So we went to Perkins and then went to the store to pick up a couple things. We came home and went to bed. Yesterday, we spent most of the day packing and cleaning. We worked really hard all day long, but managed to squeak in a little alone time. It was a great weekend...regardless of all the hard work! LOL

Hubby not coming home...
Scotto's not gonna make it home this weekend. He was going to come today with his parents car and their trailer, but the wind blew the bottom right out of the trailer so they turned around and went back to his parents house. I urged him to come last night to beat the wind...figuring that a full trailer is harder to damage than an empty one, but he didn't listen. Guess I'll see him next weekend.

Jehovah's Witnesses
Ok...lemme get this part out right off. I have nothing against the Jehovah's Witnesses. Period.
That being said...
This old lady shows up at my door this morning. It's VERY windy outside so I invited her in. I am hard of hearing and I couldn't even hear her the wind was whipping so badly. She came in and started in on her little shpeel (sp) about how children have questions, this book can answer them, book is free, asking for donations...blah blah blah. She's a very nice lady. Was very pleasant and not at all pushy. However, she had the world's WORST breath! I swear I was holding my breath the whole time she was here! I about gagged! I was holding my little dog in my arms while she was here and even he sniffed her once and backed his head away so fast you'd have thought someone whacked him on the nose. Then I looked up at her and realized she was having a HELLUVA time keeping her bottom dentures in her mouth. I thought for sure I'd be picking them suckers off my floor! So question for y'all...
If they fall on the floor, is it perfectly acceptable for me to pick them up, blow them off and shove them back in her mouth?

Well slap my ass and call me Dorothy!
It's so damn windy here, I have shingles blowing off my house! I think I heard the cackle of a wicked witch. It sounded something like aaaahahahahaha *oof*. I'm pretty sure I heard faint groaning sounds underneath my house!! Anyone out east wanna catch me when I blow away in your direction?? LOL

This pisses me off!
I just watched 2 hours of the sentencing hearing for Chai Vang. For those of you who have not heard (if you're in a bubble or at the space station or whatever), Chai Vang is the man that was convicted of 6 counts of 1st degree homicide and two counts of 1st degree attempted homicide following a blood bath in the Northwoods of Wisconsin during hunting season, 2004. Now, the issue here is not whether or not he is guilty. That has already been decided. The issue today was to figure out what they are going to do with this murderous bastard for the rest of his life.
I watched for an hour and a half, as the families of the victims came forward one-by-one, telling the court how their lives have changed since their families were murdered, all the while fighting tears myself. I watched as Vang's family stood up and testified on his behalf about what a loving, caring, special man he is. I know they probably have seen a side of him that others haven't, but what he did does not direct anyone to believe that he could possibly have a loving, caring side to him.
Then I watched as Vang himself spoke about the love of this country, the thankfullness he has for his family and friends. I watched him tell a tale about how this whole situation can someday be a lesson for all to love one another regardless of age, race or color. These statements would have carried much more weight within me had they not been given by a man recently convicted of 6 murders and 2 attempted murders. Then he went on to thank the state of Wisconsin for housing him, feeding him and taking care of him for now he no longer has to worry about mortgage payments, paying bills and working so hard and still not having enough money to make ends meet. THAT is the part that pissed me off! All of us...us law-abiding citizens who pay taxes and resolve our issues with one another WITHOUT the use of a weapon have to get up early everyday, go to work and work our asses off to pay taxes so that this murdering man can live in a prison cell, with hot food in his belly, a roof over his head and other amenities I don't believe a prisoned person should receive. And for that, the murderous bastard thanks us! Not once did I hear the man apologize for his behavior. On the contrary, he defended his right to defend himself. Defend himself against 6 people that had no guns. Six people that were fleeing FROM this man and he shot them in the back anyway. How is that defending one's self?
After all the talking was done, the judge began to speak. He spoke of the heinous, heartless crimes this man has committed. He spoke of how there would be no ability to rehabilitate this man for he is not sorry for his crimes. Then the judge did the one thing we have all been hoping would happen for the past year. He sentenced this awful man to 6 consecutive life terms in prison plus 5 years for each crime of murder in the first degree. He then sentenced him to 60 years plus 5 for each crime of attempted murder in the first degree. He has no possibility of parole. He will die in jail. The only thing I can hope for now is that he dies in prison soon. My bankbook can't afford to house him for the rest of his life. If only Wisconsin had the death penalty!

Busy Busy Busy
So yesterday we found out we got the new house. We're thrilled to death, but now there is SO MUCH to do! We've been packing a couple of boxes a day for a couple weeks now, so it's not too too bad, but you know how it is...you have to pack, and clean, and pack and clean. I've been bustin my ass hump all day today getting the things all packed up that we know we aren't gonna need for the rest of this month. Holy Hell I didn't know we had so many unused spices! One of those things you don't use but you don't wanna throw it out in case some day you decide to make something that requires one of those spices! I'm still hurting, but have all this nervous energy right now because I've been off my antianxiety medicine for a couple weeks, so I'm gonna get as much done as I can. It's hard just to sit still long enough to type this post! LOL
I hope this post finds you all having a grand weekend!
Hugs,
Andi

Health Update
I had my CT scan today. I saw the surgeon after and he said that he saw some scar tissue and adhesions from previous surgeries. Thank God it was nothing major. He said it should clear up on its own. It probably got tangled up in something. He said if I don't feel better by Monday or if I start to feel worse, I should let him know and he'll go in and clean it up. I hope I feel better soon. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers, I really do appreciate it!!
Hugs to all!
Hugs to all!

Went Into the doctor
I went into the doctor. She did some bloodwork. They felt the lump too. I don't have a gall bladder or appendix anymore, so it's not those two things. It's too low to be the liver (even though my enzymes were elevated which is normal for me) and it's too high for appendix anyway lol. The pain and lump are right in the middle on the right side.
She sent me to the surgeon who I saw right away. I have to go back in tomorrow at 11am (after 4 hours of drinking thisdisgusting shit yummy orange stuff) for a CT scan. We'll know more about what it is then and if I have to go in for surgery to have it taken out.
I'll let y'all know what's up.

Hurtin'
I'm hurtin' pretty bad today so I probably won't be online much throughout the day. I'm not sure what's wrong, but it hurts pretty bad on the right side, right at the bottom of my rib cage...but feels like it's inside more.
We shall see if it goes away.
***Update*** I have a lump in the same spot that it hurts about the size of a golf ball. It hurts pretty bad so I've called the doctor. I'm waiting for them to call me back.
