Happy Thanksgiving



* I think I am about to delete my myspace account. It's just not fun anymore and I hardly ever long into it.

* I cannot freaking believe it is Thanksgiving time.

* I love buying gifts for people, but I cannot stand trying to figure out what people want.

* My hubby bought me a new gun. 22-250 decked out with Nikon scope. It's sweet!!

* I need to take ear plugs to the deer lease for when I shoot it. My ears are flipping sensitive.

* I have to make 3 cheese cakes tonight... 3!!!!!

* I also have a bunch of laundry to do and stuff to get ready for the weekend.

* I'm out, I'll try and post tomorrow but I have been really busy with work so I don't know.


By the way, Murphy looks pretty comfy huh? He comes to work with me now that he can't be on his leg for 4 more weeks.

After Murphy's Surgery




* See those two loose pieces? The doctor is hoping they will grow back to the bone in 6 weeks. If not, they may have to amputate his leg. But, I have to think positive, do what the doctor tells me to do and go from there. It is what it is.
* For the most part Murphy has been good about staying off of it.
* I have had a problem with him not wanting to use the bathroom outside or he cant figure it out how to. He peed on himself last night after I tried to get him to pee up to 8 times that day and about 5 minutes before he decided to go.
* It is very frustrating for me, I'm sure it's really frustrating for him.
* Oh and his csat can't get wet so I have been trying to keep a baggie over it when I take him out. Now I'm afraid he is going to pee on his cast in his cage so I wrapped it before I left for work.
* I don't have kids and now I know why. Murphy barks when I leave his sight. I'm sure kids are 110% worse to take care of. But at least eventually they can communicate with you besides barking and wagging a tail.
* I gotta go, alot of work to do.

This is an amazing story ...

"The monkey had ripped off her entire upper jaw, had ripped off her nose, which as hanging by a thread. We found extensive dirt, chimp fur, and chimp teeth implanted in her bone." - EMS First Responder on the scene.

If you do not watch The Oprah Winfrey show you should at least youtube this story. Her face looks pretty bad but this woman's spirit is AMAZING. After I watched Oprah on my DVR last night I was almost in tears. This woman is so brave and positive. It's just a horrible tradgedy and she i making the best of it.

Murphy Saga Continues . . .


That is Murphy's leg ...
So I get off at three on Friday afternoon and decided to walk a mile or so with my mom and neighbor. Murphy and Sadie followed us down the road. The neighbor dog went up to Murphy and with no warning attacked him. She shook him back and forth and then threw him in the air. I thought when he hit the ground he was going to be dead because I figured his neck was broke. He amazingly got up and hauled ass. I saw the whole thing happen. He was running but only on three legs. His back leg was twisted in the opposite direction and dangeling down. It was gross. I scooped him up, he was yelping, I was 1/2 a mile from home and all I could do was walk really quick. Anyways, we got him to the vet by 4:30 and he spent the night Friday night. I got to bring him home Saturday and Sunday and I had to return him for surgery this morning. Pins and plates in his legs. The doctor seemed to think he cold fix him. Please say a prayer for me. I am blessed to have neighbors like I do, they offered to pay for everything and even went with me to see the vet Saturday morning.

FRIDAY!!!!!



* One of your peeps at the office brought this in a couple weeks ago. This feeder is between the Jack/Wise County line.
* I made my Pepaw a cheese cake last night. He fell in his cellar Wednesday night and hurt his arm really bad. No broken bones, just missing flesh. I figured the cheesecake would make him feel a little better.
* I also gave a pair of steel toe boots to a man that really needs them.
* I talked my mom into bringing me chinese food for lunch. YUMMY!!
* I started working out again. I am so proud of myself after I'm done. It's just getting motivated to get off my ass that's the hard part. I have a really good support system now so I feel confident, at least today.
* I spoke to the hubby this morning, he doesn't care about anything but deer, hogs, BEER and big horns, he is in deer lease mode.
* Is Bowie trade days this weekend?? I haven't been in years but it looks like it is gonna be a nice weekend and it sounds like alot of fun.

1/2 way to Friday !!

* This week has been unusually busy.
* I'm so glad the Cowboys won. I hope we can keep it going.
* I really am getting sick of people talking about Michael Jackson. I never was a huge Michael Jackson fan and I understood all the hype when he died, but GEEZ people!! Get over it. I think if they handed that new movie out for free, I'd never watch it. It doesn't peak my interests at all.
* I am still debating an iPhone I just don't want to pay the extra service charge that goes with it ever month. It's ridiculous.
* I want to see the Hangover and My Sisters Keeper. Two opposite movies, but both look really good.
* Murphy has still been really good about staying home but when I left this morning he wasn't on the back porch. I'm sure he is safe but I almost turned around to search for him. If I did that every time I would go crazy.
* This weekend is opening day of deer season!! I think its gonna be a good year.
* I'm not ready for winter. In fact I would rather pass it all together and go from fall to spring.
* I broke a 100,000 miles on my car this week. I drive a 10 year old car because I don't have a car payment and it gets excellent gas mileage. We have a brand new truck at home we drive on the weekends and when we go out of town. Some people thinks that's crazy, but the way I look at it we are saving on gas and keeping the wear and tear and mileage down on our nice truck.
* I try to blog everyday if I have time, but sometimes I just don't know what the hell to say.
* We cooked a brisket this weekend. Hubby made his own rub and then put it on the smoker about 5:00 Friday afternoon. I took it off at 1:00 a.m. and then cooked it in the oven on low till about 5:00 Saturday afternoon. It was SO good. Fell apart while we were slicing it.
* The story of the three girls that ran their jeep in a lake and drowned. Something sounds strange about that story. The police say no alcohol was involved and there was no evidence the girls tried to escape. It just sounds bizarre that all three died from drowning and none of them struggled to get out??
* The guy with all the dead bodies stacked up in his house. GEESH!!!! I told you there are Crazy ass people out there. It really makes you wander about everyone. Everyone has skeletons in the closet, but not literally!!!
* I'm done for now, I gotta get some work done.
