If Only I Were As Cool As My Dogs Think I am!

Welcome To My Somewhat Coherent Babbling

Skunks, Walmart, and Angry Fibro

Yay! Weekend has arrived! So what kind of adventures are my Opera friends having this weekend?
Things have been kind of busy here off and on.



Yesterday my dad was able to stop by to visit for a few hours. love We had a nice lunch out and chattered on until it was time for him to leave. He looked well. smile My mom was unable to come as she was in a class. sad

It's so cold here all of a sudden!! BBRRR As expected the fibro is yelling at me, as if I can do anything about the weather. rolleyes Stupid Fibro. So, hurrahh, I feel like someone pushed me down that rocky hill again. That's always enjoyable. Hermit has been working nonstop. He worked from 7am Thursday until 2pm Friday -- TODAY. Fortunately he gets to rest until 7am tomorrow and then his lazy bum has to get back to work. p He's been asleep since 3pm and will probably sleep all through the night. I hope so, he sure needs it!





Last night, of course this happens while I'm alone, some dog was in between my neighbor's house and mine barking like mad at 2am. I turned on the back light but couldn't see anything. I wasn't going out there to look because all of the dogs in my neighborhood are confined so who knows what dog this was. My neighbor, who lives alone and is much braver than I, ventured out a ways to see, but went back in and texted me after seeing my porch light come on. We still don't know what THAT was about, BUT there is a strong skunk smell in between our houses now. It stinks outside. P-hewww! I was afraid maybe her dogs got sprayed but they did not. Perhaps that is what the roaming canine was going on about.


When Hermit got home today he told me of some things he needed to replenish his nonperishable food stash in his work truck. So I drug myself over to Walmart to buy some things. I really did not feel like it but after the hours he puts in, I don't feel my problems are excuse enough NOT to go. So anyway, I started thinking of the People Of Walmart website. lol I wasn't qualified to grace that website but I was looking a bit funky. I rarely go out with no makeup, but today was one of those days. Pull the baseball cap down low, dab on a bit of concealer, made sure I had clothes on and that they matched, and off I went. I saw a few folks who might make it on those pages but felt it rude to try and snap a photo. Most were only sloppy and needed to brush their hair. One woman walked by and her son started screaming, rendering me temporarily deaf in my left ear (hey, it's ok lady, no need to apologize then or later when you and your brood of FIVE stood in my way for several minutes). The one worth mentioning was the man with the scraggily goatee and long white afro, tamed only by a dirty baseball cap. Not an attractive look!










I saw some of our international friends (from the university) dressed in their native clothing. up I find this so interesting. Women in full black burkas, totally covered.












Others in Indian looking clothing similar to this shirt.
The two women I saw were wearing much prettier colored shirts than this though.



Tonight I am watching movies and cuddling with the dogs. I'd cuddle with Hermit but he's sound asleep and snoring and rolling. lol




I'd like to say a big HAPPY FIRST BIRTHDAY to my little pal Cody party
and HAPPY zip BIRTHDAY to his dad! party
bigsmile bigsmile Also, Thank you for having a Birthday party so I can have cake tomorrow! YAY! bigsmile bigsmile

Sweater DogHappy Halloween!

Sorry to hear about the fibro.

You always wear makeup? I think that girls here only wear it when going out for a night on the tiles, but I'm probably wrong smile.

I went to state-run Swedish classes here, with folk from all over the world (well, no English, no South African, one American who pretended to be Croatian out of ungrounded fear of the muslimsin the class, but as from the rest of the world as small classes can be smile )

If dogs stopped annoying skunks, then they wouldn't get sprayed, would they! p

r♡serose-marie Saturday, October 24, 2009 5:28:49 PM

I suck when it comes to make up, so I never wear it (except for parties) o.

Sarah angel292005 Saturday, October 24, 2009 7:32:08 PM

Eww a skunk. lol Have you ever seen them rooting for bugs? They look like they are dancing with their big fluffy tails wagging straight up in the air. lol

That's sweet that you were able to visit with your dad. happy

KittyliciousZaphira Saturday, October 24, 2009 7:47:41 PM

I never leave house without having my "eyes" on (i.e. eye makeup). bigsmile

I'm glad you enjoy time with your dad. Do they live far away?

Lulixxylu Saturday, October 24, 2009 9:33:26 PM

You made sure you had clothes on? I never think to check that before i leave the house...think of all the times i may have gone out naked??! scared

Mrs. HermitessHermitess Sunday, October 25, 2009 1:28:12 AM

Gavin - If I'm leaving the house I at least put on eye make up. I like to cover the dark under eye circles, and put on a bit of eyeliner or I look like I've been crying. p I go pretty light on the makeup though, a lot of people think i don't wear any anyway, but if you were to see before and after shots, you'd see the difference! (I always say "enhance what you have, don't cover it up!") That's just me though, many women and girls here are comfortable to go out without any make up at all.

Adele - I think dogs like the smell. yuck LOL

Rose - I'm sure you are gorgeous and don't need it anyway yes

Sarah - Yes, I see their tails shaking around lol I think the way they walk is funny, waddeling down the path... wink
Thank you, it was nice to visit with my dad. bigsmile

Zaphira - Me either! smile My family live about 160 miles/3 hour drive away. They don't come here often, usually I go there. angel I wish they would come to visit more sad

Lucy - lol I love that you are such a smart a$$! p I only said that because the PeopleofWalmart look as though they've forgotten to check what they had on. bigeyes Going out nekked is not a reoccuring problem for me p

Gavin Tripp-Sheedygarlingmatthews Sunday, October 25, 2009 6:44:22 AM

And I never wear make up at all :crazy:.

I have nearly made it out of the building at work with-out shoes a couple of times.

Just going to go and take a cold shower now. p

KittyliciousZaphira Sunday, October 25, 2009 7:05:41 AM

Do you wear shoes in the shower? p

Gavin Tripp-Sheedygarlingmatthews Sunday, October 25, 2009 7:32:17 AM

Only for very cold ones p

KittyliciousZaphira Sunday, October 25, 2009 7:40:51 AM

- And this is where I start regretting that I asked. lol

Mrs. HermitessHermitess Sunday, October 25, 2009 11:32:48 AM

Gavin lol *wonders where the "your a smarta$$ and I love it" smiley is?*

Gavin Tripp-Sheedygarlingmatthews Sunday, October 25, 2009 12:53:04 PM

*Lathers up his size 46 vegetarian shoes and wonders what they're talking about, and where that funky smell is coming from* left

Lulixxylu Sunday, October 25, 2009 6:41:04 PM

Gavin Tripp-Sheedygarlingmatthews Sunday, October 25, 2009 7:23:24 PM

Mrs. HermitessHermitess Sunday, October 25, 2009 9:11:16 PM

Lulixxylu Sunday, October 25, 2009 9:40:37 PM

bigsmile

Gavin Tripp-Sheedygarlingmatthews Monday, October 26, 2009 11:25:11 AM

Better than loving your dumba$$ smile

Mrs. HermitessHermitess Monday, October 26, 2009 3:23:45 PM

LOLOL Ok well, I must have forgotten. Good I have you here to remind me Lucy!

ShallowMuse Monday, October 26, 2009 3:54:03 PM

Lindsay! The answer is right there! You should just get a burka to wear to Walmart when you dont feel like dressing up! idea

Sarah angel292005 Monday, October 26, 2009 5:30:28 PM

I saw your status...I hope it eases up soon. heart

Mrs. HermitessHermitess Monday, October 26, 2009 10:56:21 PM

LOL @ Bianca!! You are a problem solver! p

Thank you Sarah, it's been bad the past couple of days. sad Winter is upon us, and so are the nasty aches. flirt

Gavin Tripp-Sheedygarlingmatthews Tuesday, October 27, 2009 5:02:44 AM

Why isn't there a male burka? Can't men be dangerously hot too?

KittyliciousZaphira Tuesday, October 27, 2009 5:05:16 AM

We don't want to cover up dangerously hot looking men! wink

ShallowMuse Tuesday, October 27, 2009 5:50:27 AM

*imagines Gavin in a burka* BWAHAHAHAHA! lol
But it'd have to be like, a Walmart burka, so a lovely leopard print one will be amazing! cat

Gavin Tripp-Sheedygarlingmatthews Tuesday, October 27, 2009 11:33:13 AM

Gavin Tripp-Sheedygarlingmatthews Tuesday, October 27, 2009 5:38:36 PM

Sort of an antiburka bigsmile

ShallowMuse Tuesday, October 27, 2009 6:17:59 PM

Gavin Tripp-Sheedygarlingmatthews Tuesday, October 27, 2009 8:02:17 PM

Mrs. HermitessHermitess Tuesday, October 27, 2009 8:19:55 PM

Gavin Tripp-Sheedygarlingmatthews Tuesday, October 27, 2009 8:24:29 PM
