Morning y'all!
Gonna take grandma on the usual Tuesday run, shopping and then drop her off at the nursing home (as a volunteer, not a new resident.) I think we'll go somewhere for breakfast first. Been a while since we did that.
I'm going to beat my dad over the head with a mallet :pound: ..... Dear lord the poor man cannot understand this stupid deed and land junk.... All the survey stuff is done and can be picked up, and he is still mad and thinks it's not right and thinks the neighbors have to sign a deed... I cannot get him to understand that they signed it over to him in 1953 and it is the same deed that was originally created in the 30s or 40s whenever it was it was broken out into this plot for the first time.....
GOOD GRIEF!!!!!!!! :tearhair:
So get on your computer seth and print a fake deed, then have someone sign it for you and show it to him. Done :laughat:
I'm just gonna shoot him and be done with it. :roll:
I don't know if they're gonna go by there and get the stuff or not. He didn't say....they're trying to straighten out some investment tax issue that was messed up on 2009 taxes and gonna go here and there trying to do that, and he never said anything else about going to the surveyor's. I'm gonna go up there, look at the junk, and leave it with him, so if they do come, they can get it from him, if they don't, he can mail it to him.
He said he needed to get a new surveyor. :tearhair:
Cannot make him understand anything......GOOD GOLLLLLLLYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ugh.
I'm having issues the last couple days anyways and this is not helping that any either....just makes me a nervous wreck moreso....

My random sharing of the morning: I'm drinking coffee, supervising two kiddos doing their school work, and *ahem* working on my Bible study notebook since... uhhh... it's tonight... and, uhhh... it's not ready yet. Oops. *sheepish grin* Having trouble concentrating this morning. Thus, why I am on GP. ;)
:beret:
I love this thread title!! Just sayin'!
I'm typing this with one thumb on my phone cause my other hand and arm is holding a sleeping child. *contentedsigh*
She talks in her sleep btw. :D SOOO PRECIOUS!
Went and looked at the final stuff. It was exactly as I knew it would be. Because I know exactly how it's supposed to be and I understand it all..... Discussed various nuances of it all. I'm totally satisfied with it.
I don't know if there's any hope for my poor father.... I think that if the worthless land laywer that he's been trying to get opinions from for a year, that has been about as much help as a bump on a pickle, would sit down for 5 minutes and go over it with him with the actual definitive information and explain it to him himself (even though I have already done that, complete with drawing pictures of it!), that he might actually accept it and shut up about it. lol :roll: Lord, poor man....
I told the surveyor I was going to go to Big Red Liquor and get a big jug of whiskey before I came home. :smirk2:

Did you see that Mel-Mel? I LOOKED AT IT. Right square at it. Looked it up and down, yes, I did. I looked right at it. And it looked just like I knew it would.
I saw that!
hahahahaha Seth! Sounds like a headache.
bought these new Altoids. They smell like mint sugar cookies. lol

My, MY, what will they think of next.....
Well....they're home...they didn't go get the survey. They did go to the land lawyer's office. Mom said she thinks he told him basically what the surveyor said (well I should certainly hope), but didn't think it made him very happy.
*sigh* I thought if he said it, that would put it to rest in his mind..... But I guess not....poor man.
I think I am gonna just have to take him out and shoot him.
Ive been off today. Daughter had a touch of strepthroat and I kept her at home today. Done laundry, cleaned house, cooking dinner...ect. Im such a good husband. :patshimselfonthebacksmiley:
In other news, Roscoe has mildly tormented me with a text about a new BBQ place he discovered.

I honestly didn't mean to torment you that time- and I didn't even mention a bbq place. I just said that I'd found a new destination that had a strong smell of hickory smoke. :hypocrite: You assumed ( accurately, as it turns out) that it was a BBQ joint. I even refrained from sending you a pic...
In other news, I have been a good hubby myself. In addition to spending the day with the little girl, I mowed the yard and put dinner in the crockpot. A nice big roast, all kinds of seasonings, and swimming in a thick sweet barbeque sauce with a few slices of onions... and yes, Mini, that description is for you. :laughhard:

:pound: Cheese, for being legalistic. I already knew of said place, it'd just been a while since I'd been there, it was just a bit out of mine and Chey's normal cruising radius.
Oh, it was "11" miles away instead of your normal "10" which really is equal to 2?
SMH.
I had a GREAT day today! My Bug is SPOILED, and I helped make her that way!
Came home, and Mom is cooking supper. Nice surprise since I usually have to do it. So I cleaned the kitchen and I'm running the dishwasher.
Wish I had a bit more money, I'd go kill some time at Walmart tonight. But I don't.
:hi:
Wal-Mart always makes me want to kill "things"....but time is not one of them.
Cheesy, Cheesy. SMH. One of these days, I'll measure the route we take so I can be accurate. I keep forgetting that you're a obsessive compulsive bean counter. :laughhard: Better yet, come visit me- I'll take you on one of chey and my day trips.
Go to walmart ,mel. Every little bit you spend improves my stock price. :biglaugh:
Mini and Bob- you guys and your families need to come discover our BBQ! that would be awesome! :grin:
Bean counter, not so much maybe. OCD, yeah, definitely. lol
No, I'm not going to WM tonight.
Watching Pawn Stars with my Daddy instead.
You and your Pawn Stars.
Pickers now.
Of course. :roll:
speaking of watching things.. I decided to have a yard sell and get rid of all my movies.. I counted over 4oo in the house! It was depressing, most of these i've never watched because I dont like tv. but anyways,...
Ooo! What do you have?
Make a list of all the good ones, and let me know before you have your yard SALE.
*cough*
I'm interested in cartoon movies and family type.
Why in the blue blazes did you accumulate 400 movies if you don't like watching them?
:wacko:
:roll:
People are so dumb it hurts me. lol
Somebody texts me about duck eggs. Asks if I'll take $13-$15 for 4 dozen instead of $10 per dozen as priced.
Now that in itself is not out of the question, because sometimes I just get a surplus and even give them away just because they're "time sensitive" material and I have too many to use and such.... So the simple price question is not totally nuts....
BUT, then they say they are somewhere in Ohio, and would want me to meet them halfway.
For $15 that is a huge cut on price anyways, and then drive them halfway to wherever in OHIO you are!?! Please people, get a clue. Good Lord. I'd be better off literally throwing them away than I would driving them across the country for nothing. I'd lose money, not gain.
Dumb morons, sheesh.
Then in other news, got a FB message from the pastor's granddaughter from Sanders - where I have recently ailenated various members of the congregation on FB, lol - who lives out of state or whatever now, but anyways, she was messaging me on behalf of the girl that I mentioned a while back that cornered me one night leaving church and was asking all kinds of questions, including "where do you work?" and when I said I was unemployed she exclaimed, "Unemployed!?! Why!?" Because I don't have a job. :smirk2: Anyways, her, if you recall that story I told.....
She's very shy but very interested in me and wants to know if I'm single and would want to meet for a date.
I'm flattered and think no ill of her, but Lord amighty, I'm pretty daggone sure she's not my kind of material. lol
BWHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
That whole post made me totally totally TOTALLY BOL!!
And Seth, on a serious note, go on the date. Really. It's prolly not true love, but honestly, you NEED to get out and I thnk it would be a good experience for you. Even if you don't think so.

Yep. I agree completely with your queen, seth. :lol:
Yes Seth! After the month you've had, I'd say it'd feel nice to have someone be smitten over you for an hour and a half. She didn't ask to marry you, just go out for company. She'd probably giggle at your witty humor and such.
So, what's your type of material?
So I got this great deal on grade B maple syrup (which is actually better than grade A, a backwards system). However, it tastes "cooked" compared to the other organic maple syrup. I did save money but I don't understand how cooked tasting maple syrup is better than the other. I'll have to go read up on it.
I'm finding a really cool thing to do on Amazon is that when there is a good deal on some bulk organic food, often they offer a 15% discount and free shipping if you "subscribe." So I do and then I just go on after I've gotten it in the mail and unsubscribe. Although, you can subscribe (= automatically get billed and shipped an order of it) for a shipment only every 6 months. So some I don't have to unsubscribe. Amazon is a GREAT place to buy organic bulk staple food.
Remember I had that crazy tooth dream last month? My empty spot where my tooth was pulled feels just like it did in my dream.

A smokin' hot woman with coke bottle figure and flaxen locks that drag the ground when she's barefoot, who can dig fencepost holes, castrate bulls, and can 40 bushels of green beans, all while holding a baby on her hip.
I know just the girl!
Juuuuuuuust kidding! :spitlaugh:
And for those that say I should go on a date with her...I'm pretty sure that might drive me totally insane.... I don't really think I could stand her. lol
I didnt buy them, my parents and sister did.. I probably own 8 movies. The rest I've decided to sell simply because I can :bigcheese:
Also, I disagree with everyone else. Don't go on the date if you already can't stand her its probably a waste of time and money. Go on a road trip instead!! :moped:
I can't stand anybody....so it's not like I'm singling her out. :P
Looking at Craigslist birds for sale ads...holy crud....people are asking phenomenal prices for stuff.... More power to them if they can sell anything for those prices. My sales are so slow this year and I'm selling at fractions of the prices I see listed.

Seth... go on the date. It might just be fun... :)
I have decided to agree. Go on the date it will take attention away from Queen Mel-Mel and I ..
Um....I'd rather not.
Why go on a date with someone you have no interest in? :eyebrow:
entertainment purposes for your fellow GPers??? .. I'm kidding. I wouldn't go on a random date. Well actually I am against dating all together so my opinion may not matter.

Ya know, this statement here makes it seem like you and Cheese are meant for each other. :laughhard: Just sayin'.
:cophat: :hypocrite:
Go on the date. Just as a start of a friendship perhaps. You need to get out and make new friends.
I don't date either. I have actually never been on what I consider a "date". I have, however, been out to dinner or some other such occasion with a male, by ourselves, as friends. It was fun.
You never know. It might be fun and you could make a new IRL friend. And if it's not, you have only lost a couple hours of your life, and you get to relay the experience in written form for entertainment to the GP populace!
See? It would be great either way!
dating is over rated.
Just get out and do something different.
There is a difference between a "date" and "dating"... I think we have a thread on this somewhere... LOL!
Fine... don't call it a date...! You don't have to pay for her dinner... and take along a few mutual friends...
10 Months ago... I was not interested in a "date" with the girl I am marrying in 11 weeks... in fact I was scared cause she really liked me and I wasn't used to that... but when I got to know her, it worked. Not saying it will with this gal... but gaining a friend can be good thing.
Or don't, ignore her... and miss out on what could be a good friendship.

THANK YOU!!!
That is basically what I have been trying to say! But as usual, Melodya had exactly my thoughts, but in a simple form that I was unable to articulate!
:D
Good job, Melodya!
have I ever mentioned my parents are a little crazy? It is really impossible to interact w/ them. They are dramatic and having grown up that way, it makes me feel dramatic though I do fine in all the rest of my life.
So I haven't talked to my mom for a year. It's actually been a blessing. Then she came to the hospital last wknd. She didn't say much to me but instead chose to unload drama in the form of her being a victim, on my 9 yr. old daughter who doesn't have a clue and was overwhelmed. In the hospital. Where my aunt could've really died.
I called my mom and let her know if she would like to have a relationship w/ us.. pkg deal, that she cannot discuss drama about other family members to my children. Except I couldn't get that much out. She proceeded to blame Hannah, dishonestly. I just said point blank, that she's lying. She says "As God as her witness, she does not lie." I've heard this growing up. If people say "I promise" often or the witness of God, it almost makes me not believe them.
She just kept talking faster and louder and I couldn't get a word in until she said the God/witness part and I said, "God's not your God, your father is the devil."
Um.. so not the best thing to say. She gasped like I was about to be struck by lightning right then and there. And then I hung up.
My heart was racing, I did not want to start crying. She talks like she is attacking you, it's hateful, and it really is all lies. She randomly makes up stuff. She's the most imaginitive person I've ever known. When I was fresh in church we were talking about how tongues can change over time. She asked if I remembered what her's sounded like. I don't. Few min. later she says, "you don't even think I have the H.G." I don't even know what to say to half the stuff she says. I can't answer them cause they aren't based on a truth. and just when I try to clarify something, we're on the to next made up thing. blech.
Anyways. I'm glad I live far away. I hope the devil isn't her father. I'll have to apologize at some point for being unnecessary. That is literally the scenario that came to mind though while she was going on and on. Is when Jesus told the pharasies their father was the devil, the father of lies. But I know we don't wrestle flesh and blood so... it's frustrating. My family is probably the most disfunctional family there is. Greatly due to the fact that they are backslidden ministers. I've never heard of another family of 4-5 generation apostolics where every generation backslid.
God help me.
From what I can tell, I think I would just find her annoying. And she's smitten with me, so that'd just be setting the poor thing up for devastation. lol
Take some mutual friends? Um, hello. This is me. I can't get a dog to play with me if I wear a porkchop around my neck, let alone getting people to go somewhere with me.
:headrub: @ Melodya
Seth...if ANY of us lived closer, I know you wouldn't have any trouble finding someone to go with you. :(
Howdy y'all. Nice night at work, and nice day to ride my bike to work and back. So I did.
Think I'll go up to the church tomorrow and put the sound system through a stress test, to see if the weak link is not the sound board's main sound out after all. I'm fairly certain I know what it is, but just to make sure... I can always take my laptop and get some work done on some stuff while I'm waiting for the system to short out.
Seth I know the feeling. Sometimes you just know it won't work out. I had to turn down an offer from a girl at work who was not in any way christian, with whom I had nothing at all in common. And of course when I did politely turn her down she fired back with the old "It's cause I don't wear a skirt, right?" bit. :smirk2:

Oh by the way... no matter how long the work day has been, no matter how long the bike ride home is, having a slice of homemade buttermilk pie waiting for you at home makes everything so much better. :great:

Granted he's met a few of us, but that's not the point!
Ah, I see. We are just words on a screen. Also, given this is Seth, the girl might not be so bad.
I vote go on the date and see what happens. The worst that could happen is you might like her, but I'm sure you can overcome that with a little willpower.
Scratch that: The worst that could happen is you could tell us about this proposed date, at which point everyone would razz you about it. The worst has already happened so there is nothing more to fear.
Why DID you tell about it here on the forum? You should have known that would happen. :P
Because this is GP, AKA, Sethplace.com. And this is sharing. Seth shares everything in sharing. He is making his first wife, Alana, proud.

And no, I'm afraid I don't have anything for her.
I'm also afraid I'm going to have to go ahead and take my dad out and shoot him.
He got the survey bill, second part of it....and is furious.
And he wants to get another surveyor now. Still thinks there's a conspiracy.
He's insane. The deed is what it is, and what it has been ever since it was created in the 30's or 40's. It has not changed one inch.
Stupid, stupid, stupid....
What do you mean you don't have anything for her? lol you have YOU
Let it go Seth, just let it go. Some people seem to get a kick out of believing someone is against them. That is the only feasible explanation for the existence of so many conspiracy theorists. :roll:
In other news, my four channel compressor/expander/gate/limiter just came in. I was going to use the four channels of compressor in the church sound board. But now that I have it... how do I use it? ??? I know what a compressor is, but there was no such thing as just a four channel compressor. What is all this other stuff?
Well I now have a Behringer laptop.
This 4 channel compressor/limiter/gate/etc. came with a sticker, looks like a triangular bumper sticker. As if I want to advertise the company or something. :roll: Grandma said I couldn't put it on her car, so I stuck it on my computer over the ThinkPad logo. Now I have a Behringer laptop.
Gone to run a stress test on the church sound system, then to work. Ciao for now.
I checked some other surveyors' hourly rates, and they are pretty much all in the same ballpark. It's expensive. It wouldn't have been much less regardless of who did the work.
I'm sure my dad won't believe that though.
He seems to think he needs a lawyer for something....what, I don't know..... He refuses to understand that he has owned this for 58 years, and it has never changed.
In spite of the fact that the neighbors/relatives said that they owned it and were going to sell it to the government a few years back. They did not, and do not own it. My dad has owned it since the deed was transferred from them to him 58 years ago. All the adjoining deeds agree, there is no discrepancy. He's just insane and refuses to believe the blatant facts.
He's not losing anything. He has the same plot of ground that he has had fenced off and used for the past 58 years. It's always been his since then. Even though it was called "5 acres more or less" it's actually over 13 acres. Always has been since it was first deeded in the 30's or whenever.
He refuses to understand any of this. I wish that years ago I understood how to read deeds and things, but I didn't. But I do now. And it is blatantly obvious.
He is just insane and driving me crazy.
Dear God above......this poor man cannot understand this.....
It just goes on and on.....
:smirk:
Im beginning to think the only people crazier than Seth is his family. :P
smh
I guess that's better than shaking your tailfeathers. ;)

What started all your property line problems Seth?
A dang bunch of morons.
:-?
In a nutshell, in the last several years, the neighbors/relatives had a survey done to sell land to the government. In that survey they said all the hill behind us was theirs. That was all fenced in and used by my dad though all those years.
Now the stupid thing about that is, grandpa years ago supposedly thought he owned it, deeded it to my aunt, and told her to deed the hill to my dad. And supposedly she never did that.
Okay, so they don't sell this off, it's laying dormant. I kept wanting to know where the line was so I could fix a fence and use what was supposed to be ours.
So the survey business starts last year finally. Well, my dad told the surveyor the corner of the property was supposed to be at at point X. Well, when surveyed from point X, even though that does not match the words of the deed, it encompases neighbors houses and everything, places that my dad never thought he owned to begin with.
Well, he tries to talk to that stupid lawyer that's been as much help as poop and it's drug on for a year with nothing happening. Finally the survey is called to survey it off as the deed reads.
Well, what my dad wants is for it to be surveyed off as he WANTS it to read now - he hates the neighbors/relatives more than ever and just wants to be as ornery as they are - so he wants it to start at point X and cover their houses and all that.
Well, anybody that can read a deed (and this is where my problem is, I wish I knew how before, but I didn't, now I do, but wish I did back then....*sigh*) can see where it starts. I have ALL the supporting documents from the courthouse back to the original plot of ground and everything since.
It does not start at point X, it starts at point Y. Which is farther back over the hill. And means we have, and always have owned the hill, the exact part that was always fenced in.
But my dad absolutely cannot understand how that can be. He swears that's not on his deed and I have read it to him, drawn pictures, yelled, and everything else, and he cannot see how that is.
All the deeds that are for adjoining property agree. It is very clear where ours starts, at point Y. But nothing doing, he refuses to believe that and wants it to start at point X now.
If you could follow that at all.
And dumb people strike again. Somebody wants me to meet them halfway to God knows where to buy a $3 duck.
Why don't I just send you a $20 gas card and forget it, you moron?!
/me takes drugs.
Seth, I know it isn't funny for you. But you word it so funny and you're so humorous on GP that I can't help but picture it like an episode of HeeHaw or your dad being the Sheriff on Smokie the Bandit... lol

:beret:
Oh it almost is so stupid it's funny. But I am so mad I could just scream, just because he is crazy and won't listen to reason. He literally has done everything from cuss everybody in every way that can be done, to threaten to kill people.
He refuses to accept the simple facts. He doesn't understand that a piece of property, any piece of property, has a corner where two sides meet - he thinks a corner has to be the corner of the square quarter sections that townships are divided systematically divided into.
And the poor man is old and crippled and literally can't hardly get around anymore, he uses a crutch to walk with. He hardly ever goes anywhere outside the yard as far as traversing our property is concerned. It's not like it really should even mean much to him.
It's because he hates the neighbors/relatives so much now he just thinks he needs to do anything he can to do something to them. And he remains certain that this is all a conspiracy to cheat him. I can't make him realize that the deeds back from the 30s and such that start out with all one piece of ground that was divided out to create what eventually became ours all declare the same thing for the past 80 years.
If anybody would like to be told exactly how I feel about something, now would be a really good time to get me to tell you off.
I came mighty close to telling off that dummy that wanted me to bring him or her, whoever it was, a duck earlier.

So are you delivering ducks now??
What is your range?
If they cost $15 a duck... could I get 6 of them for $100??
If you pay for the trip I'll take em wherever you want me to. But I'm not taking a $3 duck someplace it's going to cost me $20 of gas to get to. Dummys. Daggone. I have had it today. All this crud has just made me mean as a copperhead.
You should write a book and call it "The Saga of Seth"
Sort of a comedy, horror, drama, truth is stranger than fiction, autobiography, huh?
Id buy one!
So in the end, do you get all the land??!!?? That would make this story worth it.
He'll have to fight the relatives for it probably!
Kill them off one by one.. problem solved! He can do what he wants.. he's the chicken king!!
We get what the deed has said since 1930something, yeah. Which is actually 13.68 acres as surveyed.
My dad refuses to believe and/or understand how the deed reads. I wish he would go somewhere to somebody that would sit down, read it off, and show him what it means. I have done that a thousand times already, he won't believe me. I don't know if he'd believe anybody else or not either, he gets mad when somebody says it's different than what he says it is.
And no, the stupid relatives don't have a pot to pee in at this point. I kind of doubt they'll even say anything, because I have a hunch that they already know how it really is and know they can't say anything about it, because their deed and our deed agree, and always have since they were created years ago. At this point, THEY are actually the least of my worries. It's stinkin' dad that refuses to understand anything.
Seth, Seth, Seth, when will you take my advice? If you had given up and started having fun with this by now you would have a lot more enjoyment and a lot less stress. There is so much amusement to be had from people who will not listen. Precisely because they will not listen, they leave themselves open to some wonderful pranks.

Yeah, I'm sure I could play wonderful pranks on my dad while he cusses the surveyor and talks about how he's going to get a lawyer.

So...if I understand, your dad is mad because either 1) he has more land than what he thought, 2) has exactly what land he always had, just didnt know what land he had or where it was located, or 3) didn't have what land he thought he had?
Yeah, he's basically mad because he owns exactly what he thought he SHOULD have for the last 58 years. What he can't get over is the fact that grandpa never owned the back section of it, even though he thought way back when that he did. Just cause people can't read a deed. (He thought it was supposed to be transferred from grandpa, to his sister, to him, and he didn't ever think his sister did it...yet for 50some years he never looked into it, just let it go and used it like it was his anyways.... But in reality, it was all part of it's own parcel that he bought from his sister directly that she got from a lady named Zada Allen, and not part of what grandpa had bought.) *See footnote...lol.....
He has changed his opinion of what he thinks should be his now and wants to just pick his own boundary instead of going with what the deed calls for. It's all spurred by his hatred of the neighbors/relatives that has developed over time, and his feeling that this is all a conspiracy against him.
He needs to go to some outside party he's never talked to that has sense enough to read a deed, and have them read it and tell him what it is, because he won't believe me and I have tried to show, draw, explain it every possible way that I can in plain English and he denies every fact that I state. Totally unreasonable.
*Footnote:
The thing about the way these deeds are written is that originally, there was 65 acres owned by one person, last name of Norman.
Norman transfers the 65 acres to husband & wife, William & Zada Allen.
William and Zada Allen, (in some sort of legal proceeding that all happened on the same day...I think maybe they divorced or something from the way it looks...??) transfer the 65 acres to Simpson Robertson. Robertson then turns directly around, and deeds the land all back to the Allens, splitting it between the two of them - thus creating the parcel that is ours today.
This is done by issuing a deed to William Allen that transfers him the whole 65 acres, EXCEPT FOR a certain portion that it calls for that starts at NW corner of the property and encompasses a certain area.
AND, Zada Allen gets her own deed for the property that was stated within that certain area which was excepted out of William's deed.
So Zada Allen then transfers her deed to Wayne & Naomi Rogers (my dad's sister).
Then the Rogers transfer the deed to my Dad. Exactly as it was written when it was first originated.
meanwhile, the other portion that William Allen had, is deeded from him to Jim Roberts, and the deed is passed on verbatim, calling for the boundary of the whole 65 acre plot, EXCEPT FOR, the stated piece that was broken out to Zada Allen originally.
Jim Roberts then transfers said deed to Oscar Eads, my grandpa.
Grandpa then transfers said deed to the Rogers (dad's sister).
To this day, the descriptions remain the same, the Rogers deed is now in a Trust, and it states just like the original deed did, calls for the boundary of the whole 65 acres, EXCEPT FOR, this part (as well as a few other parts that they sold/gave to their kids or other relatives that are not bordering us directly).
So when you read the deed for our part, and for the other part, they agree fully, and they establish where the corner of the property starts. My dad won't believe that though. lol
He won't believe that the property line starts at the NW corner of the orginal 65 acre area. He says that's not a corner. The corner has to be the corner of the square quarter section line that all townships are divided into.
I don't know how in the world come he can't understand that ANYTHING THAT HAS SIDES, HAS CORNERS WHERE TWO SIDES MEET. And the deed plainly states which "quarter quarter" the boundary starts in, and it is the one behind where our house is, but he swears up and down it starts in this one, even though thatgoes completely against what our deed and the other deed plainly says.
That's complicated.
If you could see it all in front of you where you could LOOK AT IT *cough*, it'd be easier to see how it all fits, but yes, there is some complicatedness to it.
Howdy y'all. Good night at work last night, good night's sleep afterward, and good morning to you!
For the record, having a slice of homemade pecan pie (very good too) waiting for you at home makes the day a lot easier. :D
Seth, that sounds like an impasse. He won't get his way and he won't accept what is, so it looks like you'll just have to tolerate his grumbling about it for the rest of his life. Or the rest of your life if you die first.

Honestly, it becomes much more clear when you have all the papers in front of you, and you know how to read deed plotting descriptions....
Unless you're my dad...then it does not become clearer. At. All. :smirk2:
They have went to town to try to deal more with their tax issue, and it looks like they took all the deed papers with them....
I'm hoping to goodness that he talks to somebody that sits down and reads it off and shows him how it is and has the sense to understand it themselves and that that will make it sink in to him.
If he talks to somebody that tells him what he wants to hear and is too stupid to read a deed, I'm gonna be unhappy.
I'ma go smear tar on the bean crib roof now I think. :smirk2:
They're home. I'll have to corner mother alone and see what all they did....lol :roll:
Another Peeve of the Day about for sale ad respondants - READ THE AD PEOPLE! Sheesh.....
A guy called about the bunnies while ago, he's down south somewhere around Corydon, like an hour and a half away....which is farther than a lot of people want to go for some things, yet totally within reason for others...just depends on what it is and your desire, for example I had ladies come down from Fort Wayne the other day, like 3 hours away, just for some baby quail....
So anyways, when he asks where I am, he's shocked, and I'm like, I think I said in all those ads (ones I listed in on Louisville CL) that I'm an hour and a half from Louisville. And he looked and was like, Oh...yeah, you did. Um, read it first doofus...sheesh. We know what happens when we assume.... :roll:
He did say if he didn't find anything closer he might call back. But, whatever.... Just makes me want to slap people for them not paying attention to something that is stated PLAINLY.
I list on Indy and Bloomington all the time, and run on Louisville every once in a while. There are people between here and there that read Louisville and want stuff... Some people come from a long ways for things. I watch the Louisville list myself for things I might want and have gone down around there and got stuff before. So it's not like it's unbelieveable or something....sheesh.... I'm about the same distance, time wise, from Louisville or Indy....hour and a halfish.... It's farther in miles to Lville, but it's Interstate a lot of the way and doesn't take as long...closer miles to Indy, but not Interstate.
Anyways...whatever. /rant
Put tar on the roof.....will have to see when it rains next time if that has stopped the leaks or not.
Took a brief catnap in the floor.

Hi! :waving: Just checking in....got to go to a high school graduation in a bit, one of the kids in my Sunday School class is escaping- er, graduating. I REALLY want to take a tylenol PM and go to bed, and if it were anyone else graduation, that's what I'd do. But- I was there when this boy was born, have watched him grow up and become a fine young man with a heart for God, and I'm really proud of him. So I'll go watch him graduate, and although he probably won't ever read this- well, I think Cody Wilson's a pretty swell kid and a good friend. :biglaugh:
It'll be a busy next few days- tomorrow night I've got wedding rehearsal for a coworker's wedding, then Saturday the wedding. I'm really not good with social type events, so please say a prayer for me that I won't ruin the wedding by falling out and causing a scene. :laughhard:
I'm headed to a graduation tonight, and another tomorrow. I already went to one last week! Good thing we only have three grads this year!
Since I'm on the Youth Staff, I am kinda required to go to all these events.
Ugh Seth. It is also a pet peeve of mine when people do not read things like, invitations, info for stuff, and then ask me. With the exception of threads or days long threads/FB. Especially when they ask me for it again like on FB and all they have to do is CLICK over to it rather than have me type it over again. so rude.
hehehehe. Had a great day, packing/cleaning to head out of town to IA/IL this weekend. From Tulsa to IL in 1 weeks time. :updown:

Stupid girl working saw me go in and called the cops and told them some homeless vagrant just locked themselves in the john lol

Really funny part is I knew the cop that came, I used to change his diapers when he was born lol he loled so hard lol

Oh my. Poor Barb. What a night THAT was!
Howdy y'all. Went to work, came home. Man, what a slow day - I could have brought a book or something. I probably would have gotten another task to work on in my spare time, but the 2nd shift boss went home with a migraine.

There ya go, Cheese. Next time someone wants you to meet them charge them by the mile. ;)
Yeah, that wouldn't be so bad.

And now I really AM going to get some stuff done... ;)

I need to go check the mail, but I don't want to!

Having a bad day, Jenn? :eyebrow:
Mail was a flop. I'm expecting 4 more packages, and none of them came today. Blah.
It's hot out again. :smirk2:
What you'xpectin', Mel Mel?
What's goin' on, Jenn Jenn?
Cheese: You can't hate Ruby. It's against the rules of SethPlace. :girltongue:
:hi: to everyone else
Morni... errr... afternoon, everyone! :-)
Where HAS the day gone?? :o
Chicken cooked.
Dishes washed (and the sink half full again).
Laundry loads one and two (clothes) are washed, dried and hung up. Still need to fold and put away the rest. Blankets are in the dryer. Not much longer to go before they'll be finished.
French toast casserole ready to put in the over for ladies prayer breakfast in the morning.
House organized and ready for the last phase of cleaning tomorrow. :chairspinud:
Still gotta clean the floors in the kitchen and bathroom really good tonight, but it shouldn't be a big deal to just dust and straighten tomorrow.
P.S. Would someone PLEASE pray that I can get a return call from the guy who might be able to repair my car at a price I can afford?? Otherwise it may be a long wait to get the money that the rest of the world at large wants for the job.
*sigh*
Praying, Elona.
Elona, what is wrong with your car?
PF: it started overheating in February. Went to Meineke to have an oil change and they said that it needs a new water pump, as mine is leaking. On a PT Cruiser, the water pump is in the middle of everything, so the labor is pretty much 8 hours at California bay area rates. The parts are less than 200 dollars, but to have someone at a garage do it makes the price jump to *cough splutter choke* prices. It's been parked since February. The last time I drove it, the short trip from the oil change place to my house had it nearly in the red. Now the battery is dead, too. *shrug*
At least I live near the train station and bus stops for several major routes. And the grocery store isn't too terribly far away. Thank God for suitcases with wheels! The bank and the library are also within fairly easy walking distance, but I REALLY miss my car sometimes... especially when I'm expecting company and would like to be able to take them on a tour of my town and the city.
There's a guy who lives nearby who says he can do it for a couple hundred dollars less than the garage (and I finally have that much money), but I can't get in touch with him.
Sorry. That was probably WAY more than you asked for.
No, that's not TMI, I was wondering. Wish you were closer, we have a friend that's a mechanic.
Hope your friend gets back with you.

Howdy Everybody!!! :hi:
Elona, I've been wishing there was a way to get your car up here, too. I've got friends who are mechanics as well. And most of them would LOVE the job, and just 'cause they want the work so badly would be likely to give a really good deal. ;) But alas! San Fran is a bit far away to tow. :updown:

I am expecting a new Otter Box phone case and three new charger cords. I am on my third charger now, and its SHOT! I have to hold it a certian way and be sure not to breathe wrong when I am charging it, so I ordered three cords so I'll have some backups and I got them for under $3 apiece, so I decided to get several! I'm tired of fighting this phone just to get a charge! AGGG!
Anyway.
On the way back now from our third and final graduation for this year! Thank God!
I'm tired!

Now if it were a computer I could hang out my "Shade Tree Tech Support" sign. But I don't know of any shade tree mechanics around here, much less there.
Went to work, came home. Another slow night. Not that I'm complaining, I needed a break.
Speaking of a break, or rather lack of one, we work tomorrow, mandatory overtime. As I got the max allowable overtime per day all this week, I will now see just how much money I can get out of this company in one week. :D
I think I'm afraid of him. :smirk2:

Well this soundtrack is about as ready as it will be before Sunday morning. Got the whole thing sketched out to the ending, so it'll be good enough for the kids to practice with at least.
G'night y'all.
KM: That would be about 8 and a half hours from here in good traffic (which is nonexistent in soCal from what I hear). Not an option, unfortunately.
Seth: That's the problem. It DOESN'T cost less to repair it than it would to fly my Dad out here. It would be about the same. Might be even a bit cheaper when it's all said and done. Problem is that he wouldn't have space to work (the car is parked in tight parking behind the apartment complex) or the tools (I guess he could bring them with him, but it wouldn't be simple). I also wouldn't want to fly him out for just a few days just to put him to work.
If anyone does hear of a "shade tree" mechanic in the SF bay area, let me know. Or if anyone knows how to get rich... err... get a few hundred dollars to spare... quick, let me know. lol
Morning, all. Just got back and caught up with all of you industrious little bees. Interesting- I see that Mel's expecting, Isaac's sketchy, P. F's cooking up something again, Cheese is scared of babies- wow! :o
And Elona, while it might cost a little more, while your mechanic is in there repairing the water pump on the PT, you might ask how much more it would cost to replace the timing belt as well. Those little cars have what is known as an interference engine, which means if the timing belt breaks, it trashes the top end of the engine as well- around $3 grand at a dealership. The timing belt's supposed to be replaced every 60 thousand miles if I remember right from when Lou had hers. I'd hate to hear you put all the money into fixing one problem and something like that go out. And if I remember right, it wouldn't be TOO much more work on the mechanics part to replace that while he's there.
Hope all of you have a great day, and if anybody wants rain- well, I'm sending it. Don't know where, but it's leaving here!
My day today:

Good (yawn) morning y'all. One great thing about second shift, no alarm clock needed. :)
The only downside (aside from missing Wednesday night church, every revival and all other weeknight activities) is that on Sunday morning when the alarm clock rings and you are not accustomed to it ringing, it's hard to allow that little thing to live.

No biggie.

Your phone can be in it's Other Box and you can wear your "gold" Rolax watch and carry around your Louie Vitton purse.....

Okay this was NOT a slow day. We had to work today because the company is far behind, so at least I got overtime pay. But they decided to do the Firestone order today, and the boss had the bright idea of plugging the parts right at the furnace, which meant a big three ring circus of tables with parts cooling enough to not melt the plastic plugs. And as fast as the parts came off, it took three people to keep up. Unfortunately at times there were only two. >.>
Oh well, church tomorrow, so it should be better than today. And the 4-channel compressor came last week, so by tomorrow night I should have all three wireless mics moderated automatically, as well as a compressor channel for main speakers. :D

I HATE dreaming sometimes. I have these terrible dreams about my friends all the time! I just woke up from a bad dream where I got a text from Granny saying that Ann had a massive heart attack about a week prior, and I was more upset in my dream that we had hung out and been around one another and she never told me about it, than I was about the actual heart attack! UGH!
I woke up and checked my texts to be sure. Blah! I hate when I dream bad stuff that seems so real!
Anyway. Church today. Yay!
:smirk2: :bustamove: :o

Didn't know what day it was when I got up. :smirk2:
Morning, all. :waving: Survived the busiest weekend socially for me in a long time. I have no desire to repeat it. :lol: Now I'm back at work, fixing to take some of my free time and put together something for tonight's service.
And PF, I saw the pics on Facebook. You're right, I'd have loved it. Would've much rather been there than at the wedding I was at.
One thing good out of the whole weekend, I got some absolutely gorgeous pictures of my darling Angel Fluff in all of her "Flower Princess" finery. :biglaugh: When the wedding was beginning, just before the processional, Chey stepped around the corner of the waiting area and yelled as loud as she could , "Here comes the flower princess!" I didn't know whether to hide in shame or bust out laughing. :-\ Everyone present thought it was hilarious.
LOL! That's great!
The little church that we helped yesterday does the car show each year as a fundraiser.

Melody I know the feeling. Last night I dreamed I had way overreacted to something at work and mortally offended a coworker. I kept trying to figure out a way to apologize that the now-offended coworker would listen to.
And for all of that, I can't even remember what I did to apologize for... :roll:
Well the starburst pie is in the fridge, hopefully gelling. Crust - standard shortbread crust, 2 cups flour, 1/2 cup confectioner's sugar, cup butter. The filling is two boxes of black cherry jello with only half the water, two small jars of strawberry preserves and the largest tub of cool whip they sell. Grandma tasted it and said it was no good, I shouldn't take it (translation: leave it here.) ;) Then she started scraping the bowl with a spoon and eating it.
I told Grandma this is weird... I'm making stuff and SHE'S licking the bowl. All my life I've gotten the bowl to scrape out when she's making something. :biglaugh:
I'm sure you are Isaac, but it's great to be able to treasure time with the oler loved ones, while they ae still fully functional.

We had brisket, Mac and cheese, and veggies for dinner tonight. Then I had lime jello. Yummy!

Congrats, your Lordship.
For the record, a compressor is a marvelous thing. Have I mentioned that before? Well it is. Don't know what we did without one.
Oh wait... I remember what we did before we had a compressor. When the person with the microphone started yelling we jumped like scalded cats and hurried to turn the volume down, then turn it back up when the speaker stopped yelling. Man I'm glad we got a compressor.
Thank you, My Queen.

Yeah, a group called Queen sang that. And about the real lyrics... let's just say there's a reason that one muppet got stuck on "Mama" in the middle of the song. Don't bother looking up the real lyrics, you don't want to know.
If you don't want to know, how do I know? Because at work different people play different radio stations, and sometimes I have to hear stuff I don't want to hear. >.>

You like getting together with your family? :freaky:

Depends on the family. I have some great family over here and we all like to get together. We have family dinners at the drop of a hat. Any hat.
Yes actually I do. I was looking forward to this reunion. My favorite cousins and both my brothers and their family were coming.
Now, since it was cancelled, Mom and Dad and I are gonna go to Florida and see my brothers.

Well we finally got the title for Grandma's car and got a license plate for it. About time too, she paid for the car about two months ago but, because of a divorce on the seller's part, he had to get his kids to sign off that they didn't want the car. So now Grandma is independently mobile again, which makes her very happy. Having to depend on other people for transport was cramping her style, but mostly she hates to impose on other people.
In other news I didn't get to go to the Prime-Timer's campmeeting this year (for older people, but I'm old at heart and I thoroughly enjoyed it last year) but Grandma picked up the CD set. Only problem is the CD set won't sit around the table in the Fellowship Hall and talk with you over lunch. For some reason I like to talk to old people.
I don't think we have any plans this weekend so I think I'm going to do Nothing! (http://smile18.com/imgs/girly/girly007.gif)
My sisters' wedding celebration was adorable! It was country style since one of my BIL is a farmer and loves that stuff. Both my sisters eloped within 2 wks of eachother back in Feb. We decided that one of my sisters would really be blessed to be able to have something of a ceremony with family/friends. So, Nathan tweaked the vows and made it a declaration/celebration thing. It was sweet. I'll post pictures when my other sister sends them to me.
Afterwards we had cake and refreshments. Then Nathan and I took my sister's 3 kids for the night. Twins are F.U.N. (http://smile18.com/imgs/girly/girly026.gif)

Thinking of calling my two that I have Bible study class with on Mondays and canceling. I don't feel like dealing with it tonight.
Me too Mel. I have a horrid headache. My throat feels clogged too. I just feel blah period.

Hi guys. Had a great weekend. I think I have a cold or allergies, I can't tell the difference.
What's everyone doing for Memorial weekend?
My boyfriend is coming down and staying until Monday. Excited! :)
*Psalm_97 passes through, looks in, ducks and dodges bullets and moves on.
Lot of violence in multiple threads since this morning. Did everyone get possessed by the ghosts of Chicago old-style gangsters?
So Grandma's car has questionable brakes, so I'll be driving her around tomorrow anyway. If it ain't one thing it seems it's another. But it's a good excuse to visit that really good restaurant again... :fork:
Yay Nelle!
Trying to find a good place for a family vacation in the winter of 2012 for my sisters & us. 11 people, hopefully someplace warm. It has to be after harvest season cause my Bil is a farmer. Looked@Florida but Idk the region so we'll probably over pay for something crowded cause Idk better.
Come to Tennessee. We're friendly. Specifically West TN.
Or come to any place near someone on the forum. They can give you directions to good places to stay, eat, see. For us, Shiloh battlefield park is probably the most prominent tourist attraction here.
Let's see... Fuzzy and Chel live in a warm area. Taco would be good to ask about his region. Mel could inform you on Mississippi, if you can stand the mosquitos. All these places are comparatively warm in the winter.
*sings "Well they say there's more snow in Colorado than my eyes will ever see / But a tender Tennessee christmas is the only christmas for me..."
The Freemans, a family I go to church with here, have two cabins in the hills of southeast Oklahoma. It is where we held the 2008 meetup. They have six beds in the one cabin, and three in the other. Gorgeous spot, you can look back at the old archived thread to see some of what we did there.
Exceptionally reasonably priced, I might add, and they treated us like family.
John :waving:
Newsman do you mean The Freemans, as in the gospel singing group?
no, just a great family in the local church.
I would admit, however, it can get quite chilly/cold in OK, depending on exactly how late in the year you are talking. They also have some hunters that pre-reserve the cabins for deer season.
John :waving:
Thanks guys. It'd be Nov.-March time frame, & the SE portion of the us, maybe Texas idk. I am gonna call Mel & get the low down on on her area. For me, that'd be ideal to meet her!
You could see the sights of famous Pascagoula, where the squirrel went berserk.

1 keep falling in love with Him, over and over and over and over again
I keep falling in love with Him, over and over and over and over again
He gets sweeter and sweeter as the days go by

Yes, since your phone won't send a text unless it's received one, that's my fault. :roll:

Well, it's been a good day. The only constructive thing I've done is get the Bug started for the first time in weeks, and drove it down the road. I tried to upload some pics to photobucket from Chey the Flower Princess' Great Wedding Adventure, but my dial up's just to slow. I only got one uploaded. So, for Lady Wooby, here's the pic of my pride and joy:

Nathan officiated the wedding?
That's what she's said like 12 times. :smirk2:
It was just a "ceremony" for the family though, they were already married privately, or whatever, right?
My poor silkie hen is eggbound.... Been performing chicken gynecology....it just won't come out. :(
Yes Seth. I didn't realize I talked about it that much. Sorry guys.

TMI
But in the spirit of "One good TMI deserves another," Seth I don't know how you handle all those black bean platters you reportedly eat. I ate a can of refried black beans for breakfast today and nearly pooted myself to death all day. Either you have no sense of smell and don't mind driving others away, you have a metabolism that could digest a bowl of termites with no problem or you suffer a lot for your black bean platters.
As stated before, I don't find black beans to be very gassy. lol
Oh, and we currently have almost nothing to eat in this house. A few pieces of bacon is all the meat left. No cheese of any sort, cottage cheese, peanut butter, mustard, Miracle Whip, canned chicken, etc. etc. etc...... The place is bare of stuff that I eat....
You turn me loose in your kitchen, I'd find something I could whip up.
So now that my sis is moved/ stationed in Glen Burnie, MD she wanta to get plugged into a church asap! So I'm trying to find her one. That's exciting, God has kept her for the last 2yrs, He's a good God.
Here I am.
Here I'll be until 4pm.
:yawn:
:hi:
So...I'm eating eggs and a piece of toast and the last dab of bacon....now we are officially devoid of meat, along with cheese and everything else that was already totally gone.

Your not out of meat sethiepoo, you got chickens, ducks and all kinds of yummy stuff :fork:
Those are all on the foot....there's nothing on the shelf. :P
That could be rectified. You got knives don't you?
We're having eggs, turkey sausage and cornmeal pancakes for breakfast.
I am still getting used to the idea of having money. My time at McD's might have been of some benefit. I don't spend as much now.
You'll always have eggs!
Which are NOT linked to heart disease! For years and years I've been told eggs have cholesterol, which clogs up your arteries. Now they finally say no, wait, eggs have a different kind of cholesterol from the kind that clogs people's blood vessels. Well do tell! And here I thought my grandfather was beating the odds, eating eggs all his life and not dying. :P
Pass the eggs please.
I've never heard that. I love eggs.
Egg whites, egg salad, egg sandwiches, fried eggs, scrambled eggs, deviled eggs! YUM!
I don't like poached eggs though.
They'll tell you they kill you again later....then say they're okay again....then the opposite...
A deaf lady just came and got some birds...she called using a system where she types and an operator translates her typing to speaking, and my speaking to typing..... It happened yesterday and I was totally confused, but then heard back from her today and it went well... Communicated with her by hand signals and writing things down on a note pad. Interesting!
I guess I need to become multilingual. :smirk2:
Or join the church sign team. After a few songs learned by rote you'll pick up a vocabulary.
But you'll never be able to ask the all-important question "Where is the bathroom?" that way because very few christian songs have the word "bathroom" in them for you to learn.
Be sure you use the correct sign for bathroom if you do learn it. Some regions, the word bathroom and toliet are interchangeable, while in others, the sign for toliet is HIGHLY offensive. It's like you are saying the litural reason for your visit to the bathroom.
On the eggs thing...I love eggs as well...and just like Jenn, every way to cook them is great except poached.
Never tried them poached, but I hear poaching is illegal in many countries...
We have a lady in town who sells us real eggs from chickens she keeps. There just is no comparison with those thin-shelled, watery-yolked things in the supermarket that are made by chickens who are pumped up with steroids and hormones to force them to make more eggs faster.
Only thing is, they are harder to crack so you need to keep them separate from the wimpy storebought eggs. If you are cracking a bunch of real eggs and don't notice you grabbed one store egg and crack it the same way, it'll obliterate it... all over the counter top.
I have never eaten a farm fresh egg. Just store bought.

You WHAT?! You love eggs and you've never tried a real egg?
Oh man, you need to keep your eyes open for an "Eggs for sale" sign when you're out driving. They are nothing at all like storebought eggs. The yolks are much, much thicker and darker colored, and they cook up a whole lot tastier.
Or let me know next time you're in West TN and I'll scramble you a few.

Man, I like fresh milk. But I guess that come from growing up with it readily available.. Truthfully, I can't tell alot of difference in taste from fresh eggs and storebought, although I know that comment will give Isaac a stroke. :biglaugh: And I've had 'em so fresh they were still warm when cracked.....
Won't give me a stroke. If you have no sense of taste that's on you. No skin off my nose.

That's the litural sign for toliet, and it's also the one that can be mistaken for the litural (S-word) sign for poop. But that's according to your Deaf people, and where they are from and how they have been taught. It's always good practice to use the "double R" sign for restroom, just to be safe.
It's more of a double bounce with the R than a shake. At least that's what I was taught.
I LOVE farm eggs! I remember when we were little dad got our eggs from Mrs brown and we thought it was funny that Mrs brown sold brown eggs lol
I don't like the fresh milk though, but I hate milk no matter how it comes, can't swallow it to save my life lol

Good grief, what kind of milk do you buy? A gallon jug of 2% is $3 And that is city price.
Tornado sirens still going off. :yawn: Even if we get one RIGHT here in this very spot, it's not going to be a bad one. This is not even close to what Joplin just got.
I haven't had farm fresh eggs but I buy the no hormone- cage free kind. And there is a huge difference when scrambled. They are fluffier and softer, it's interesting.

We buy Great Value brand 1% milk.
It would be cheaper to drink gasoline.
We don't drink a lot of milk nowadays anyway.
Cheaper, and probably just as good for you. Skim milk and all the % milks taste all wrong to me. There's something weird about them, they're just not right.

That's what you get for letting her read over your shoulder. Now she's thinking about it, thus she will naturally ask for it.
Back on the fresh milk...there is no comparison on store bought and fresh milk. Fresh is great. Well, fresh is great unless the cow got into some wild garlic or onions, then fresh is not the way to go....LOL

I have determined that the cow is quite possibly my favorite animal.... Milk, which I love- from the cow. Butter - also from the cow. Big juicey steaks and roasts- from the cow. Is it any wonder the Hindu faith worships them.....I'm nearly a hindu, now. :laughhard:
Soy milk is okay, as long as you're not expecting real milk. If you're wanting it to taste like real milk you'll be disappointed. If you judge it based on what it is, it's not too bad.

I really like almond milk and fresh rice milk. It's crazy easy to make too.
I prefer to buy non-homoginized but that's too expensive for us. But instinctly, even though never having fresh milk, have always shake my milk before use...lol In the last year I've had non homoginized, no hormone milk and it's lovely. But still store bought.
We have been drinking the Vanilla Soy Milk. Tastes like a nutty milkshake. Seriously.

You are Buddhist too... don't forget that. And Pentecostal. And hopefully Catholic.

I don't drink milk either. I cook with butter, cream, cheese, but milk I have no real use for.
And yeah, what would you do with it? I never buy it so I wouldn't know.
Mom drinks lactose free milk....the Great Value brand...and she says her 1/2 gallon costs as much as a gallon of reg. milk.
She's stopped buying milk though for the rest of us, cus she says we don't go thru it enough. lol
I won't drink milk if it's within like 2 days of expiration though...It has to be like a week out or more.....
I've had bad experiences with bad milk - so I'm realllllllllllly picky about milk.
But I LOVE cottage cheese (Only Great Value brand though haha).....explain that!

Wait! Where'd the Catholic come in at?!? Hindu for my love of cows, Pentecostal for my love of truth, buddist because I look like him- Always told Lou I had the body of a god- :laughhard: But I don't remember the Catholic connection?
Catholic is my own...basically it means you love people. "All-embracing" is the technical definition. If you want to mess someone up, tell them you are a Catholic Pentecostal. LOL
:laughhard:
Don't know if I'm saintly enough to fit the "all embracing" definition.... can you alter it to "embracing some, shoving others"? :laughhard:
Pseudo-catholic?
There is a church here that is "apostolic catholic" lol first time I saw the sign I had to drive around the block to see I read it right. Then did some study and learned Catholics have claimed being apostolic 1000s of years ago.
I've heard of someone who eats almost everything being called someone with a catholic diet or catholic taste.

Just cause Peter was an Apostle doesn't mean that they should claim to be Apostolic. Lol
Not when they don't adhere to the teachings that Peter preached!
I know lol its like yeah he was our first pope but we didn't believe a word he said, then went from there lol

I don't know much about the Catholic religion, but how do they consider him their first pope? Did the Catholic church once embrace being holy ghost filled? Did they once baptize with immersion in Jesus' name?

Well, they started out believing that Pete was a Pope after a long experiment with early forms of LSD. And the catholic church never embraced oneness or Jesus name baptism as far as I know.
If you ever get a chance buy a Halleys bible handbook. He talks a lot about the popes and the catholic church in there.

We should be catholic in definition, but not in the doctrine of the Roman Catholic church.

Went to lunch with former coworkers....I hate spending money to eat out, but it's a special occasion...bah....
Went to the unemployment office to see about milking the last hitch of milk out of the government cow.
Got a bag of gamebird feed.
Grocery shopped.
Stormed, but not much where I was.
Home eating a salad.
I did two loads of laundry. Cleaned the kitchen. And I'm fixing to get a shower and head to the church for Prayer.
I was supposed to hang out with Ann tomorow, but she might be going out on the boat with her husband, so I guess I'll play taxicab driver for my mom.
Don't forget Muslim, 5-0! Muslim means "Submitted to God" LOL And they are Firm monotheistics.
They picked Peter to be the Pope cause he was given the keys of the kingdom and consider Peter to be THE rock that Christ built His church on. Plus Peter means "stone" I think.

Sometimes it can be fine even after the date....but I too have come across more than my fair share of milk that gets funny smelling before the expiration date....have even had some that seemed that way almost from the start... We had a bad round of it with Aldi's skim I think it was, a good long while ago.
It, and other milk I've run across on occasion, smells like a cow's bag (aka udder).
If you've never had fresh milk, you've probably never smelled one's bag either, I'm guessing. LOL
I actually can't really remember having any fresh milk per se either, I may have tasted some at some point. But I have been around them and their babies enough to know what their bag smells like. lol

Oh Lord. I'm still finding new revelations about the religion I've been raised in my whole life- all I need is ANOTHER one to obey. :biglaugh: I think Muslim is out- they don't eat pork, do they? And I love pork.
hehehe, yep, right about the pork part. They eat lamb and goat though which is amazing so it's a fair swap imho... LOL
Do you know that some muslims are against Israel, not because they are so evil but because Israel is so compromised w/ worldliness? So they feel Israel deserves judgment. That they'd be fine w/ them if they'd conform to the Torah at the very least? Some mind you, not the crazies. In fact I heard a Rabbi talk about how Ishmael's decendants are justified to a degree. It's all very interesting.. and yet not at all, at the same time.. (http://smile18.com/imgs/girly/girly025.gif)

Eboni loves killing George.
Well this was an all-around in-the-toilet day. Not because of the tornado warning, not because we had to sit in the office while my parts fell in tubs, not because I had to scramble and catch up when we were finally allowed to get back out on the factory floor - but because some people's way of dealing with stress is to take it out on everyone who has the bad luck to be near. I think it used to be called a shotgun temper because it hit everyone in reach, but I don't think they make a shotgun that can hit a whole factory. I'll call this a bombing-from-orbit temper.
Ah well, at least I'm not the only one who got blasted. Equal opportunity ill temper is not as good as no ill temper, but it's better than bearing the full brunt yourself.
In other news, howdy y'all!
In other other news, having the remains of a starburst pie in the freezer and some chess bars on the counter makes the day more tolerable. And they are currently calling me. Be right back.
