A bastard squirrel chewed thru Mr.Snowman's ( the outdoor Christmas light) wires and he died again, after just getting all re-wired and re-lighted so my hubby had to fix it again and I visited mymother who WAS supposed to be out of isolation tomorrow but then her cough got worse so she has to stay longer now and they're starting her on antibiotics today and she introduced me to her newest PSW, a 6'6 guy ( that's probably how tall the 17 YR old will be full grown!) that smelled like onions and she calls Tiny and he was "hot",too, and by his accent I'd say is probably Nigerian. She also asked if the 30 YR old's GF will be coming over for Christmas which I thought was kind of odd; why would she come to our house and NOT with her own parents and as the nurse came in so did my hubby and he said to her, Oh, I guess she's not in isolation anymore not all gowned up? as I just "snuck" in when no one was looking ,unnoticed ,and didn't wear a mask, gloves, or gown...and then she turned around and just glared at me and admonished, No, you're supposed to be!!! but we were just leaving anyway and I told him he just HAD to go and open his big mouth, didn't he?
I also have this really weird pain on the left side of my head all day plus a reaaallly baaaad headache and I'm really dizzy,too, so I decided to post this now, tonight, just in case I die in my sleep tonight or something and it never gets a chance to be told.
Because you just never know.
I also got some of that aerosol spray "snow" (I ran out of the small can and had to get a big one today to resume) and re-flocked the tree( shown here both in the light and dark, lit up) it did come flocked but it fades and discolours over the years in the light and the sun.Buddy and I also had all afternoon alone in the quiet as the guys all went out to play Dungeons & Dragons and we should again for an entire week in Feb. too when they go to BC to visit the girls and with airfare 600$ you can go to Europe for that which is why I never travel domestically but only internationally; it's the same price anyway so for that $$$ you might as well go somewhere interesting, different, and exotic! The 25 and 28 YR olds and their BFs are going ,too, I find strange about the BF's coming along, too ,since they aren't even a part of the family, and esp.spending all that $$$!
My friend I from grade 8 also DID end up de-friending me on Facebook over the postal strike afterall, just throwing away 43 years of friendship over a disagreement and I find that to be really petty. You can disagree on things and still be friends, just disagree respectfully. I even have friends that are ex-military, Trump supporters, pro-Israel,etc. you don't have to be the same or agree on everything to be friends.I've also had friends de-friend me after over 30 years because I refused to take the Covid Clot-Shot,too. It 's sad and hurts to lose friends but then it also makes you realize how good of a friend were they really in the first place to begin with though if they're so quick to just dump you over a difference of opinion? Who really "needs" friends like that,anyway? She had already also added one of the bullies from Jr. High that made me life hell as a friend on Facebook, making me feel hurt and betrayed ( and I didn't de-friend her for that) even after all she did, and yet she de-friends me over a disagreement? Seriously though, WTF?
Who needs people like that?
My hubby also said that people at McDonald's "work harder" than he does but he "earns waaaaay more" and yet the sad fact still remains that the people that do the hardest work( eg. fast-food workers, retail, migrant workers,etc. ) are also paid the least? I also heard the Purolator courier is owned by Canada Post too which explains why they're so lazy and don't even ring your doorbell but just leave a notice for YOU to go down and pick up your own package, so I know now on which one NOT to use,and my hubby said as a kid he never had an allowance, either(I got 20$ a week) but collected empty pop bottles and returned them for 2 cents each and bought candy with the $$$ and I just find that so....sad. My mother would buy my clothes and my allowance was extra for "spending $$$" for things I wanted such as records, earrings, posters for my wall, Hello Kitty stuff, magazines and books, nailpolish,My Little Pony, stuffed toys,etc.Our childhoods were the opposite.
Our kids got allowance that they did chores and worked for.
My biggest dream was to have kids.
Until I actually HAD kids.
