This and That

The old washer had to be replaced. I went out and bought a new one on Saturday. I just couldn't stand to have another used washer come in only to not work. Unfortunatley the man friend that I let come back into my life messed up my drain hose for the washer and the electrical plug. Grrrrr. Can't believe that he is so stupid to pull it straight out of the ground and to pull the plug so hard that the box came off of the wall. Oh well we live and learn.

I've been sick. Missed work on Monday and that throws me behind at work. Had the ole stomach bug I guess. My troubles when I get the ole stomach bug is that I get so violently ill. I shake uncontrollably with chills and then the hot flashes. Terrible experience. While I was so ill my mom called this so called friend thinking he cared enough to see about me and guess what - he came over all right and acted like a fool - so angry at being there. I told him to get out and stay out - never come back again. I really don't need a man. I will hire someone to do what I need.

My veggie area was plowed yesterday. I have a lot of work laid out for me. I will be planting the vegatable garden in about 2-3 weeks. Haven't finalized my list of veggies to plant yet.

What to do about the squirrels messing with my flower pot containers. I think they are still looking for nuts they hid in the fall and winter. I heard that red pepper flakes may deter them - I'll try this. Any other ideas?

We are getting some rain showers today. Nice light rain the kind that does the plants some good without knocking them over. The weekend is calling for temps of 70 and sunny. Yea!

I can't believe that my oldest and still my 'baby girl' will be 37 tomorrow. Happy Birthday - April. She is off enjoying their annual 'family' vacation up in the mountains of Tennessee.

That enough of my rantings. I'll be around as I can this week to visit you all.

Have a great day and hope you are having some nice weather.
