Grandaddy Joe Delivering his Vegetables


This is what he does all through the neighborhood every day or so. 

I am Spending YOUR Inheritance ........


Yes, I have found my newest addiction. Last year this time it was Wendy's apple pecan salad. This year it is Bojangles chicken supremes Kid's meal....with cajun pintos and a biscuit! I spent 20 something dollars during the month of May at Bojangles, and about thirty five during the month of June. Nothing but pure gluttony on my part.

Since Sherrill is working at a Bojangles most days, he eats there a lot. He use to carry his lunch every day, but now just a couple of days a week. But, at $4.29 for a kids meal, I think I am doing pretty good!

And by the way.....I have given up my Pepsi's. The morning caffeine headache has just about gone away.

NO I will NOT


Sherrill came in early today for a Dr appointment. Now, he has been going to this Dr for 10 years or so. Today I get a call from him telling me he needs MY Social security number for HIS Dr. I told him NO...... let me talk to someone there. I spoke with the receptionist and she proceeded to tell me that she HAD to have my # to file the claim. I reminded her that she had been filing claims all these years WITHOUT it, and it had always been paid. She transferred my call to the "Insurance Lady", who again asked for the number. I offered to give her the last four digits, and told her that by law that was all I had to provide. Then I reminded to her that on the BCBS Claims form, they do not even ASK
for social security numbers. My name and subscriber number is all she needs!
Now, he always pays his bills each visit.......owes NO outstanding medical bills, so NO, I am not giving up my number!

This is What it looked like


I sent the dumb a$$ a message telling her my parents were alive and doing well.
Couldn't she look at it and see NO DEATH DATES were given.
Just a note.....when you go cemetery hunting, just post those that actually have a death date!
The more seasoned researcher usually backs it up with a death certificate.
And yes Mandy, she has taken down the memorial.

It kind of reminds me of mom's Uncle George and Uncle Curtis. Both of them have tombstones beside "Little Grandma", when in fact Uncle George was buried in Augusta, Ga and Curtis was found at sea after the Normandy invasion.

Weekend Getaway







The McEwan clan are taking a weekend get-away to Manti to see an outdoor drama. They arrived early enough to get some swim time in.  Remember now, they live in the desert, and the closest pool to them is like 30 miles away.

Eli and Kenny


I called Eli this morning to see what his plans for the day was. There was a 9:00 AM chess match, then a trip to the library. They had to walk to get there. Kenny found the drums in the music room. Kat said for the afternoon they had a 4:00 dog obedience training class. Eli said yesterday Fido learned to "sit" and "stay". If only kids could learn that fast! ! !
I forgot to ask him if he made his Funfetti Birthday cake yesterday. That was his plan.

And please introduce Fido to the family.

Full disclosure here......I forgot Eli's birthday.... no card, no money, even forgot to do his post. I remembered yesterday when the computer told me. So, for any of the others of you I forget, or don't have a card on hand, I am not showing favoritism , I am just an old forgetful woman!

I'm going to KILL him before all of this is over with!


Sherrill has been trying for months to get his A1C down. He had really been doing pretty good. I was cooking lots of vegetables, laying off the carbs, and making sure he had little or no sugar snacks and desserts in the house. Over the past couple of weeks though he has quit checking his blood sugar after dinner. I knew something must be wrong.......then I found this receipt.
4 nuggets
1 bacon cheeseburger
1 small fry
1 cookie
1 soda      This is what Burger King calls their $4.00 bundle.
I call it "You are killing my husband bundle!"

He is working this morning, so I give him a call and tell him I am taking all the food out of the house, except water and lettuce. If he is going to eat like a pig at work, then I am feeding him nothing but salads for dinner. I don't even know what his blood sugar is. No wonder he is complaining of being tired and sluggish!

But let me tell you how smart he is. Mandy gave him a jar of gourmet jelly beans for Easter. He has been doing real good just eating a few a day. He knows I can see that jar and how many have been eaten. He went to the store and bought him a pack of cookies, emptied in them in the cookie jar, and ate them ALL one Saturday.

I don't want to be mean to him, but he has got to get with the system. He is proud of himself when he checks his blood sugar and it is under 150. He thinks he's the man. But then when he pigs out and his blood sugar is 350, he wonders what is going on!

Looks like I will go back to packing his lunch every day. When he works at Bojangles and would get free food, he often would get a salad and chicken wings. But last week he was working at the church in Kinston, thus the Burger King $4.00 bundle. His final remarks...........
"But Judy, it just cost $4.00".  Yes, he is still the tightwad!

Shhhh, don't tell anyone!

Brain Surgery is OVER.........






I drove myself today to have some minor out patient "Brain Surgery". Added to that was a little "eye lift", which has already caused quite a bit of swelling ....... mostly from the numbing stuff and excessive bleeding. Anyway, I was in and out in under an hour. The girls (nurses) apologized over and over because there was so much blood, and it covered the entire left side of my head, and the back of my head. They tried to clean it up with alcohol, but that just turned it an orange color, especially with my white hair. So, I left the office with a wonker swollen right eye, and half of my head covered in red/orange blood. 

On my way home I decided to stop by Bogangles for a kids meal. I drive up to the window, and this little black girl looks at me with so much empathy and says, "Oh honey, I am so sorry". I very shyly responded, "There were three of them". She walks away stopping to speak to some co-workers. Within seconds they are making their way to the drive-up window......trying not to stare.

Oh the joys of being an OLD LADY! ! !
