Musing For The Day.


 

Rabid Badger.

Yesterday I did my most-hated monthly chore: I cut Beja's nails.
Ugh!
I'd have much better luck catching a squirrel in a pillowcase and cutting its nails! My normally sweet loving Chihuahua morphs into this vicious rabid badger when I try to cut his nails even though I've had 13 dogs in my lifetime and he's the only one that has ever given me trouble cutting his nails. What's wrong  with him? My arms and legs ended up with all bloody scratches and I need to wear full body armour! My hubby says the second-oldest's cat is the same way but at least with cats you can get them de-clawed. He was mad at me,too, and after I was done he ignored and shunned me for the rest of the day, the little suck! As soon as he saw the "sling" and the clippers he also knew and he took off running so fast and hid! HA! What a diva!

This(above) is also how I think Beja sees himself,ha,ha, and today would have been my mother's 85th birthday (I'm wearing one of her shirts for the occasion)and it's just an empty,sad feeling having someone's birthday but they're no longer here to celebrate, and I also heard actor Randolf Mantooth died; he was 80. He was in that 70s TV show Emergency! my mother and I used to watch and was my first childhood crush. I would have been 8 or 9. My mother thought he was a "hunk" too, and I wasn't too young even then to appreciate such a fine male speciman. They said he left behind siblings & nieces & nephews but no mention of a wife or kids so I wonder if the dude was gay? What a waste though if he was; that no women were able to enjoy such a handsome man. Just my "luck" as well: I missed the morning news on the radio today as just when it came on a stupid ad came on the same time, 3 of them actually back-to-back and it was so long by the time it finally ended the news was over. Doesn't it just figure? I also saw an unusual squirrel: it was black but had a brown tail with a black tip.

It's also so hot our black walnut tree's leaves are all wilting and the fruits are shrivelling and wrinkly, and I noticed the blanket on top of my bed was all messed up after I'd just fixed it and there was a lump in the middle so I smoothed it out....and it was Beja! He had burrowed underneath! HA! I had a surprise and a good laugh. A miracle as well: yesterday the youngest actually put his dirty dish into the dishwasher instead of leaving it on the table for days! There must be a glitch in the matrix! He also gets a much-needed haircut today and yesterday as I was in the backyard tanning I heard at least 4 firetruck sirens wailing and then suddenly stop behind us and my first thought was, "Shit, I hope they don't see me tanning topless while up in their aerial ladders!" and 10 minutes later an ambulance also arrived and they stayed about an hour and then left but I never saw or smelled any smoke so it must have been a small contained fire, or maybe no fire at all but carbon monoxide or something else?
That's the most excitement we've had around here in a long time.

Just because I prefer to be kind does not mean I won't slap the fuck out of you.-20

Thought For Today.


 

Tomorrow.

Tomorrow is my mother's birthday.  
She would have been 85 except in December it will be 2 years since she died.
I can't believe it's been that long already. It's actually gone by pretty fast. She's always been such a big part of my life and has always been there and it just felt like she always would be so now it just feels sort of weird that she's gone now. It almost feels like a big part of my life is missing now. We used to get along well too until I had kids and she took over and over-stepped boundaries and also became nasty , mean & controlling as she got old. We also would go to our fave. Italian restaurant 3 times a year: for Mother's Day and for both of our birthdays and I miss that. It was harder at the end as she was old and used the walker and had a hard time getting in and out of the car but she still managed because it meant so much. I think it would be kind of "fitting" if I died tomorrow, on her birthday. She was also born on her uncle's 21st birthday.

I also saw this and we had those exact same doorknobs at our old Toronto house which was built in the late 1800s. I remember them on bedroom and closet doors as well as on the French doors. I love them and wish they still made beautiful old fashioned things with character like that now. I also heard Stairway To Heaven again and got more weed my month's supply only it cost more this month because instead of just the usual pre-rolls(which I also got) I had to get some dried flower( the stuff I put in my bong) as well which I have to get every 3-4 months. I also used my last bath bomb and Beja peed on my flip-flops that were near the back door. I can't believe he peed on it! What a bugger!
Here is also one of my fave. Pope jokes:

The Pope was doing a crossword puzzle one day when he asked one of the Cardinals,"What is a 4-letter word for a woman that ends in u-n-t?" and the Cardinal replies "Aunt".
The Pope goes, "Do you have an eraser?"
