This is the third time I've tried to do this so I'm hoping the third time's the charm!

NO! IT'S HORRIBLE!
The majority of shows are STUPID! The few that are decent can't make up for the tons 'n tons of crap and commercials that are on there. On top of that , with all these channels, my husband has turned into a CHANNEL FLIPPER! He flips from channel to channel trying to find something worth watching. It's annoying as hell.
Maybe I'll get lucky and the squirrels in our attic will eat the new antenna. Kill two birds with one stone that way. No squirrels. No asinine television shows.

Today was my day to head back out to see Junior who is now living with Grandma. Grandma lives in a trailer, too. Her's is the one with the Chihuahua that piddles all the time and the birds that perch on my head. But, despite those things, she keeps the place pretty clean. It doesn't smell like dog pee or bird droppings and I feel safe in taking my shoes off and moving around on the floor with Junior. At The Trailer Of Absolute Squalor, I never took my shoes off or even my wet snow boots. I'd find the least filthy spot on the floor and stay rooted at it lest I end up with some kind of fatal disease. Grandma has toys at her place! Junior let me help him put some Duplos together. There was nothing small and dangerous on the floor for him to stick in his mouth. I actually was able to get Junior to do some things with me this time!
Despite the fact that the Chihuahua made a puddle on the floor right next to me again and one of the birds pooped on me, I am feeling much more optimistic about Junior!

This has been floating around for a bit and I finally decided to do it. PLEASE NOTE: I am NOT tagging anyone else for it. Do it if you want. Or not...
A. List seven habits/quirks/facts about yourself.B. Tag seven people to do the same.
C. Do not tag the person who tagged you or say that you tag "whoever wants to do it."
1. I was born in Washington, DC. This may not seem very odd but to some people it is. When I was in the Army, I had an awful time getting my clearances because some dumb clerk in MILPERCEN thought that by being born in THE NATION'S CAPITAL I was not a citizen. Yes, being born in Washington, DC does make one a CITIZEN OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!
2. I am a nail biter. Have been all my life and probably even did it in the womb. Nothing has ever worked to stop it. I'll probably even bite my nails as I lay in my casket in the ground.
3. I was born Roman Catholic, flirted with the Methodists briefly and ended up Orthodox Christian.
4. With some exceptions, I like kids better than adults.
5. We have hosted three exchange students: one from the Ukraine, one from South Korea and one from Russia. They have all been very nice kids.
6. I had a horse when I was a kid - a pretty Appaloosa. He was very spoiled and pampered and lived to a ripe old age.
7. My Chrysler Grand Caravan has almost 228,000 miles on it. I want to keep it until it goes over 300,000 but my husband doubts it will make it that far. No AC. Barely has heat. Shocks are shot. I don't see why it can't keep on for another year or two!

I apologize for the delay. I was hoping to get this up by Christmas but it didn't happen due to an electronic malfunction. So instead of wishing a Merry Chistmas with this, I guess it's Merry Synaxis of The Seventy Apostles and Happy Forefeast of the Theophany ! (Doesn't have quite the same ring, does it?)

Sick as a dog. It's not swine flu or any kind of flu for that matter supposedly. I had the test done where they stick two giant q-tips up your nose and check the goo that comes back out and it was negative. But if it's not swine flu, it must be a close relative. My eyes are watering. My nose is running. My head is stuffed up. I'm hacking up my lungs, am achey and with a low fever. (98.6 may be normal for some but not for me. Normal is about 97.5)
I'm staying at home and not working. I don't want to give this to any of the little ones I work with, so many of them are medically fragile that the littlest cold turns into a hospital trip.
BTW, speaking of dogs. This is Pippin.
I may have put this up before. I don't remember. But I don't care. He is such a good dog. Someday I will get a good picture of our other dog, Frodo, and put it up so as not to slight the poor thing.
