The Boys.

A few days ago 2 boys that looked around aged 12 came to the door asking if we needed any yard work done. My hubby said yes because my mother's always nagging the 26 YR old to do it and he never does so the first day they started and worked a couple of hours but it's a really big job what we call The Jungle of overgrown vines and weeds and stuff in the back part of our backyard where no one goes( but the 26 YR old and I like  because it's like a tropical jungle and it's very peaceful and zen like at a tropical resort and the trees provide privacy and shade and it attracts all kinds of birds with their wonderful songs) and they thought they were done but my hubby said no, not even close, so they asked if they could just leave it half done and get paid half and he said no way; you complete the entire job or you just don't get paid, so they came back the next day( which would be yesterday) and I finally got to see them; they rode their bikes over and one was thin with a blonde Buzzcut and the other was heavier and had long dark hair and they were so dirty with dirt smeared all over their faces and dirty  hair and clothes they reminded me of those orphans from the 1930's(like in the photo seen here) and my hubby said they came from The Projects ( the poor section/ghetto) up the way but that's not what I meant; I just meant they were so dirty from the yardwork, and they only did about an HR yesterday and then left and haven't been back since so maybe again later today to finish? After all that my cheap-o hubby (who also happens to be very picky,too)was only going to give them 10$ too and my guess is they're probably saving up to buy something too like a game console or a game and working so hard and so long like that deserves 20$ each and I was planning to ask them how much he gives them and if he was being cheap to slip them extra $$$$ and the funny thing was that my mother said that she's going to do the same  thing,too! HA! They had to borrow our gardening tools too(didn't bring their own) and at first I wondered if it was a scam; that they just take off with our tools,do no work, and we never see them again.

I also just LOVE this picture! It's my friend A( from Ottawa) and his wife and daughter in a sunflower field! What I wouldn't give to be there! Oh, my God that would be a dream and on my Bucket List  for sure! My BFF and our mutual friend F(from grade 6) also met up again at her restaurant, and if he wasn't already married I might begin to wonder, ha,ha....and yesterday my horny old dog took his stuffed toy( that looks like a dog) and hid under a chair for privacy and kept humping it, the dirty old man! I couldn't stop laughing!  My mother called me "old" too but if I'M "old" then she's ancient and I may be a Classic but she's a fossil, and I had a scare this morning as well: I found a bunch of Band-Aid  wrappers crumpled left on the bathroom counter and then my hubby mentioned there were no towels, and I got really worried it was the 26 YR old(who I always had this bad feeling is going to die young), who had jiu-jitsu last night and didn't come home until after I was up in bed; what if he got seriously hurt and was really bleeding and took the towels to absorb it and he's dead up in his room; he bled out? so I went up to check him this morning, my heart filled with dread and fear as I approached his door.....but luckily he's fine,thank God, but I still don't know where all the towels are. There was also a mouse in my room the other night and it woke me up at 3 am rummaging around knocking stuff off my dresser and at first I thought it was Buddy but he was asleep snuggled beside me, snoring softly, and it really freaked me out, just the thought of something in my room as I slept, and with all the fear-mongering with COVID it reminds me of little kids scared of catching the Cooties  and pretty soon there will be more strains of COVID  than there are of marijuana  and my friend M(from the old church) has 3 friends that died  right after getting the vaccine,too, and every time I return to the Caribbean I feel I'm back home again,too, and I think that's what Heaven must feel like,too.

I skipped midlife and went right to over the hill.

 

Today's Thought.

 

Stuff.

How cool is this? I was laying outside on the back porch on my back in my lounge chair looking up towards the sky and I saw this on the canopy roof above me; the sun was casting a shadow of the vines on top of the canopy and it looked so cool so I decided to take a photo, not knowing if it would look the same or end up shady but it ended up looking good! I love how it looks like a silhouette of the vines, it's just so cool! Near the end of the month the 22 YR old and her BF are also going to Vancouver to visit 3 of her sisters and it's looking more and more likely that the 18 YR old won't be coming back from Vancouver either but staying there which is no surprise and I always suspected; I mean, who wouldn't prefer living in a big city than a hick-ass town, and we had a BBQ yesterday and my hubby tried this new thing to get the coals to ignite faster and it made soooooo much smoke which kept wafting over into my  face and it kept making me cough and it was smoking even more than I do, and I was tanning topless like I always do but my mother was outside and she kept staring at my tits so I told her to not be such a pervert and she told me to not be such an exhibitionist  and I told her I'm NOT an "exhibitionist"; I just like tanning au natural  and the sun feels nice(plus it's way cooler that way too), and she's the one that had to go and make it rude! The 26 YR old also asked what would happen if he snapped all my sunflowers in half and I told him I  would smash his  computer and my sunflowers are so tall now and my hubby shrugged they wouldn't win any world record, and I told him I wasn't trying for a world record; I just want to keep them alive and get some flowers!

I also heard an athlete at the Olympics  defected, claiming asylum,and I wonder if they're from Ontario, seeking freedom, since we're the last province to still be locked-down and have to wear masks,etc. and my friend M( from the old church) also has a friend who knows 3 people who have died  right after getting the COVID vaccine as well and now even the Vatican  is in on encouraging everyone to get vaxxed as well, so even they're complicit in enacting the New World Order  and the Great Reset and are part of the Illuminati so what next? Will it later come to light that the Pope is actually the Anti-Christ,too? Nothing would really surprise me anymore and the world has just gone crazy and I can't take much more of this shit! My friend's son is also still really sick and no better, no worse but they still don't know what caused it and yesterday I had this really weird headache too that felt like an electric bolt shoot thru my head and then I felt restless (esp. my legs) like I do before the onset of a seizure...My friend in Brazil(whose oldest daughter just got married over the weekend) also doesn't seen to have much hope for  her daughter's recent marriage either and is already saying things about divorce and the "next wedding", and Buddy and I are also eacother's lifelines too and if I ever lost him the light would go out in my life.

10 Weeks.

Today my sunflowers are 10 weeks old(I think, they might be 11 weeks, I'm not quite sure but I think 10 weeks) and look at how tall they are! Now they're even taller than both the 26 YR old and I! They have also outgrown the shelter I put them under to shield them suring storms from the heavy rain, wind and hail so now they're just on their own out there at the mercy of Mother Nature but now they're also much bigger and stronger and better able to weather the storms,too. I also saw on the news last night this couple in Toronto actually got fined over 600$ for feeding squirrels ( just like my mother does every day!) if you can believe it! What a Fascist country we live in; everything is banned and we get fined for everything; even being kind is a criminal offence now! Seriously though, what the actual f*ck? The neighbours next-door also got 3 hanging plants they have on their veranda but they all died so I guess nobody told them that they're supposed to water them, and we're having a BBQ today for the Civic holiday(and my hubby's off) and my friend's son who was in the coma is still really sick and is being sedated so he can heal, and cuddling Buddy this morning I could feel a distinct hard round what felt like a big hard rubber ball in his abdomen as well that was the size of a large grapefruit.

It must be a tumour.

Cancer.

and my heart just sank.

My friend M in Brazil's oldest daughter( she also has a 4 YR old!) who is 30, a doctor and has a 5 YR son from a previous relationship also just got married, and it was 3 day celebration at a grand ballroom at a swanky hotel and the food was so fancy,too,, and you can see my friend here in the photo and her daughter and her son-in-law in the background, and they both got their dresses custom-made by a designer,  and my friend even caught the bouquet! The guy she married must be rich,too, because just look at the rings(shown below)!!! My friend just lives this amazing rich fascinating  jet-set glamourous life she doesn't even have to work but she just lives off $$$$ her father gives her!That, and she's pretty,too! Some people have all  the luck! 😘

Yesterday my hubby also finally got around to fixing my computer as ever since I got my "new" computer( actually the 14 YR old's old one but new for me) I haven't been able to add new songs to my iPod so he was checking it out and at first he was able to fix it so I could finally add new songs.....but then it turned out that only the 3 new ones I'd added were on there....and all the others were gone.....all 2000 of them and I was freaking out! Do you know how long and how much work it took me to get over 2000 songs? and now they were instantly all gone? I even specifically told him no matter what you do, DON'T delete them and I'd rather not have any more new ones than to lose the ones I already have and no matter what just don't delete the ones I already have.....and then......oh f*ck....but luckily he was able to fix it; they were all still there luckily, just "hidden" somehow, thank God; I don't understand any of it I'm just releieved to have my songs back( even though he dismissed it as You didn't pay for it anyway and just illegally downloaded it  but that's besides  the point; I'd be devastated to lose all my songs and I'd never get them all back again and how could I ever remember all 2000 of them, plus I put alot of time and work into it)As it turned out Apple had done some updates and it wasn't compatible with my computer or something-or-other. Whatever. I don't care as long as I have my music back.

Truth For Today.

 

Things I'm Craving Right Now.

Things I'm Craving Right Now:

Spumoni  ice cream( pictured here) it's been decades  since I've had this since no one in this Bumble-f*ck hick-ass town even knows  what it is or has even heard of it so I guess I have to go back to the big city to find it but it's this amazingly good Italian ice cream and it has chocolate, pistachio, cherries, and a bunch of other fruits and nuts in it and it's just sooooo delish. It's just soooo good and it's been so long since I've had it I've just really been craving it alot lately.

Charmed Aroma mango bath bomb those are the best bath bombs I've ever had and they're just sooo creamy and exotic and the scent permeates all thru the room  and the colours are so vibrant it colours your bath water so brightly and it's just soooo luxurious but the thing is they're soooo expensive( due to the fact that they also come with a ring inside so you also get jewellery with it,too) like 30$ each so that's the draw-back.If I was a millionare I'd have one of these in my bath every day.

To have my brains f*cked out. it's been since I got prego with our youngest( and he's now 14) since my hubby last "porked" me and I want it so badly I want to get nailed so bad; the kind where your back arches, your toes curl, and your eyes roll back and you can practically see the inside of the back of your head and you have shivers all thru your entire body.

A good book. I want to read a really good book and immerse myself far off into another world for awhile and just escape .

Carribean. I miss it and I long to go back and be in my Happy Place  on the beach under a palm tree, and suntanning on the beach and swimming in the ocean. I heard that the Dominican Republic( a place my friend J and my Babushka's nephew have both been to dozens of times) is allowing  non-vaccinated tourists so now all I need is the $$$$.

Live music concert. Due to the lockdowns etc. I haven't been to a live music concert in forever and I really miss it. I can't wait to go back.

Claw-foot bathtub. Just like the one I had at our old house in Toronto. I loved it and you can get the water all the way up to your neck. I've always missed having one and always wanted to get another one like the one we had then.

As well, I was wondering why certain people like myself and my friend L have more than our fair share of hardship, trauma, misfortune, etc. and the answer came to me that God gives His hardest battles to His strongest soldiers, and I was thinking it would be cool to change my name to Sunflower ("Sunny") Moonchild as that would be the most hippie name ever, and yesterday the 26 YR old went to a BBQ with his jiu-jitsu crew and he said it was really hard to socialize for so long too and he had to "prepare" for it days in advance and it really drained him and the thing is I know exactly what he means; he must have social phobia like I do and it's just too people-y out thereand it's exhausting and it takes alot out of you and I needed help with my iPod as well as I was trying to listen to Flashback on the radio and my wifi went out and I was outside so I asked my hubby to help but he was busy (like he always is)and blew me off and said later  and raged at me and tried to grab my device and throw it across the room even though the radio show was on then  and couldn't wait (and it would only take him a few seconds,anyway)and I didn't want to miss it but he only ever thinks about his schedule and what's convenient for him  and bever consideres other people (esp. me) and they have schedules and things they need to do,too; it's always about him and if you assert your own needs he gets all snotty and storms off sulking and raging and acts like a little kid.

God gives His hardest battles to His strongest soldiers.
