My Weekend

I'm blogging a bit late this morning because I had to go to my doctors office and have bloodwork drawn. My doctor seems to think I'm diabetic. I had to have my fasting insulin level drawn plus and iron binding today because my iron levels are up. In May, I will have to do this all before I finally see my doctor again.

our new weed puller

Our weekend started early. David took half a day off on Friday afternoon. He wanted to get something over at Home Desperate for the hose. Now y'all know David doesn't just go to Home Desperate for one needed thing. He gets the one needed thing, plus he brings home other things he says he needed but didn't see them last time he was there. Yes, yes he does. Every single time.

Well, Friday he brought home a weed puller that saves you from having to bend over to pull weeds. Yes, it's the kind where you step in the lever at the bottom and the teeth of the weed puller gets shoved into the ground around the weed. Then it encloses around said weed and pulls it out. You just push the yellow lever in the center to make it release the weed and go pull another one. It is efficient I'll say that for it. Sort of like a catch and release system. Somehow I wonder if I should buy stock in Home Desperate. After all, in another 20 years David will own every fucking thing that they sell.

So after he pulled about 5 or 6 weeds, he came inside and sat down and watched Jerry Springer and then Maury. Trash TV as usual. I finished the laundry and went into the living room on the other side of the house where it's really nice and quiet and surfed the web.

On Saturday, he finished pulling weeds from the front lawn and came in. It was fairly warm outside. We are using our AC already and it's just spring. I was baking and cleaning house as usual. I made a pecan pie from a recipe that I made corrections on. It turned out great! Saturday night was boring so we ate some pie and watched John Wick and Dracula Untold. Two movies I've been wanting to see. Dracula was ok. It could have been better. John Wick was an action packed fun shoot-em-up, if you like that sort of thing like I do. If you want to know about the movies check them out on Wiki.

Michonne and her katana

Sunday David washed the dog blankets and gave the dogs a bath. I was down for the count in bed most of the afternoon with the heating pad and meds. My back was giving me hell as it is right this very minute. But I was able to make dinner for David. I didn't eat. Pain does that to me. Then I took a long shower to let the hot water beat on my back, went to bed and fell asleep. I did wake up in time for The Walking Dead season finale. The show was fairly boring, but I was glad things at Arlington will change. Morgan showed up, which made me happy, and Michonne finally put her katana back on. She looked whole as if she had been missing a dear friend for so long.

Monday Morning Shit to Warp Your Mind

This is one of my favorite holiday seasons besides Halloween. Why, you ask? Silly question. It's because this is my most favorite time to give my oven a workout. Yes. Yes, it is. It's the time of the season that I love as you all know.

I have two dozen rum balls rumming, 1 pan of frozen brownies waiting to be thawed and frosted, two rum cakes fermenting, and enough rolls of frozen cookie dough to feed the world, cha cha cha!

Meanwhile on the Jerry Springer Show

Other than that David is home for the week. As long as I can keep him from watching trashy TV like Jerry Springer or the Syfy channel, yes, the Syfy channel. Oh you say why the fucking Syfy channel? Well this is why! The movies that are on during the day are just plain awful! Yes! Yes, they are! It's like these actors are so fucking bad. I told David once that the actors on these lousy movies are porno has beens' that can't do porn anymore because of fourteen year old's that have taken over their place. Now he watches the movies to see if he can identify someone.

Here are a few of the titles of these block buster movies.

Mongolian Death Worm

Lockjaw: Rise of the Kulev Serpents

Stonados

Sharktopus

Piranahaconda

Yeah pathetic, I know. What can I say.

Oh! This is for all of you. 

Vickie from http://www.aoibhealslair.com/ asked me what comment total am I at now for this little comments contest I'm having. Well Vickie, your last comment was #2531. Which means I'm at #2534 as of this blogging time. Yeppers, we are not even fucking close to the 5000 comments that I want to get to before the end of this year. I might just have to call it off because only five people comment and I get like 20 to 25 looks a day. That's just plain pitiful. I'm going to have to think about this for a bit. I really don't want to call off a contest because of only 5 comments a day.  

Well, I have to get ready for my doctor's appointment. Later I'm making David take me to dinner. I'll be blogging all week with my usual memes and then on Friday I'll be talking with you again.
