Best thing i bought in 2021:

Yup. Toilet seat cover. Amen. Just killin some time. Internet is at a crawl, second snow storm of winter is happening this moment. Very icey. Have to work tomorrow but probably won't be able to get out of here. They already cancelled the Monday covid19 testing. Just saw somewhere that Sweden is going to micro chip people - the covid19 vaccine passport. Why can't they just have app on phone? 

Oh, almost forgot - I contacted the county animal league regarding the dumpster cat with broken twisted up hind leg. Too make a long story short she said she had to find out if she had to ask for permission to be on nursing home property before she could do anything this was after she asked me if I could trap it....
 Also, why is it so complicated to search for other blogs on here? We used to all be connected. 😐

Waiting for the freezing rain to start - internet might go down..

Sitting in the living room drinking coffee and watching Stumperina play soccer.  She just found a "fun size" kit-kat bar under the fridge. Yesterday she brought my attention to some dry cat food that was spilled behind a piece of furniture. No clue in the world as to why or how THAT got THERE! 🤔  

I had planned to snap a new selfie with Princess Stumperina Pumpkin.  You know, while we had good snow,,was going for a mood pic representing the winter of my life. Haha. But the princess hates the snow and today the rain will ruin it. 

Guess I should decide if I want to use commas, or not. This blog space is turning into A diary. I can't decide if I should swap out my profile pic to a recent one. The original one is 20 years old. I remember the night I took it. New Years Eve. Waiting for my son and his wife (gf at the time) to come over, they were late ,as a matter of fact, they stood me up and I was so pissed! That was also the start of the MySpace years. And the sweater I am wearing was 20 years old. A, button -down- the -back ,angora piece that I was wearing backwards.  You know.. When I go back to work I'll be too tired to write in here. So I will leave all as is. 

BLISS: don't have to be back to work till tues.... Well, actually monday , for covid test..

 Went to the doctor yesterday for on going back pain that my, stand-on-your-feet-all-day job, is not helping. Anyway I had my appointment in their carport. . because the county is in OUTBREAK status. then went to pick up my prescriptions at the walmart pharmacy In va, where I had to wait forever because half of their staff was out with covid19 and so they were way very behind. Then I had to drive back to wv to my work to be covid19 tested because we are in OUTBREAK status since the 5th. So even if you have been vaccinated and boosted you are required to come in twice A week for mandatory testing. All the running around was worth it, though. . I have a weak muscle relaxer and a strong arthritis pill. Snowed in again. Stumperina loves ambient... Loves me being home. Had long conversation with Germany sister yesterday. We haven't had a full sister reunion because of covid19, in 2 years! She said that in her city you cannot go anywhere without your vaccine passport which is on your phone and now you must be tested before going to a restaurant and certain other places. They were just starting to take the free testing stations down but now they are going back up. The people who weren't vaccinated had to pay to be tested, now, it is free for everyone, again. I thought that last bit was interesting. I have diarrhea of the mouth but am going to go lay down. It gets uncomfortable sitting.  Snowed in again, did I already say that

Do you guys watch, Jackson Galaxy on youtube?

 Sad face. Too cold to go out and hunt. She brings me dead mice all the time. The other day I watched her stalk a demon gerbil (chipmunk) - it's amazing how long she can sit still as a statue. That takes so much self control. 

At work we have the dumpster cat gang - 5 , sometimes 6 adults and 2 kittens which I haven't seen in awhile. I work in the kitchen , so of course when I take out the trash, I feed them. We've never had this many cats. All but one are feral. 

Heartburn from the coffee. Tomorrow it's back to work. Hope I can drive out of here. Electricity was out for 3 hours, yesterday. Then I had to hike up to the satellite dish and do some snow removal. It's alright being snowed in as long as I have heat and internet 😂.  A guy I work with just got Elon Musk's (billionaire we love to hate) , Starlink only to find out there isn't even a star link satellite around here. Paid $500 and  then it's $99 per month but can't use it yet..... He said that the dish part will melt snow and ice on its own, and the router is really "cool" looking,  so I should get it. Lol, no thanks. 

Snowed in. In more ways than one. . ha ha ..

 Still driving the 1999 vehicle I bought for 1K in 2012.  No awd. Not even 2wd. 5 miles to the nearest state maintained road and it's a one lane. Can't get off the property. Either there is a 12 foot snow drift, a thick block of ice on ice hill , or a fallen tree blocking the road. ..  Need an  AWD.  Wish I had a friend who knew how to buy a car. Wish I had a friend, period. Nah. That takes too much energy and time. So, 10 years sober, and I am frozen when it comes to buying a vehicle and moving to a beach. 

Smoke signals. 

The other day I was watching Stumperina and her movements were glitching. Freaky. 

So I guess I am a hypocrite. Hating on people addicted to spilling their guts on face hook (almost said,  slipping.) but find myself doing it, on here.  I have nothing but I have everything.  The check mark in the cloud, icon.  The new rattling (love) in the songs. We all build our own cages. I don't remember when I first heard that. Sure is true, though. I can stay sober but I can't break out of my cage.  Has this "life style change" been worth it? For the most part, I would have to say, yes! But it's lonely. In fact I didn't even realize how much so, until the cat came along.  Wow. What an eye opener - 

The page is white as snow. Stumperina hates the snow. Hates the cold. Sometimes I think she is my old friend, mellie (RIP), reincarnated.  

So, I didn't get the "booster". 

Going to make coffee. Brb.

Just hangin around this xmas...

 

She found me on October the 13th..

 I almost sat on the tiny, grey fur ball that was curled up on my favorite back porch chair! Saw her out of the corner of my eye before I sat on her. Oops.. Almost didn't see you there - all the while thinking, nope, don't want the responsibility, nope and no! Then she sat up and stretched and I saw the stump of a tail and my grinch heart melted. That's how she roped me in. Yup , it was the stump. I thought she had been in an accident or it had been bitten off by a dog or something else. Turns out she was born with that stump and isn't even a kitten at 6 lbs. Nope, my princess Stumperina is around two years old. She was wearing a beat up pink flea collar ..so she was loved by someone before me. I had her spayed and she has gained a pound or two. She owns me 100%. 

Cool, I can post pics now! Working Xmas Eve and Christmas day but will post pics as soon as I get a minute. Not on Face hook anymore. Hope everyone is having happy, healthy holidays! 😁 😘
