I Voted Today, BUT...
first, I broke the voting machine! And it was still broken when Charles voted a couple hours later.
All I did was put the card in, read the instructions and touched the NEXT button. The screen said 'Loading Ballot, Please Wait', so I waited and waited and waited 'til the screen said 'caution, this machine has been inactive too long...' then a RESUME button came on so I touched that and the stupid thing locked up. I guess I should have asked for the paper. Only 1,467 days (Nov. 6, 2012) until the next presidential election!

Extreme MakeOver-Home Edition Toledo
Ty and his crew are down the street and around the corner from us. The looky-loos were gathering before 8:00 this morning. By 9:30 we couldn't get to our house without detouring through the neighborhood. They finally put up "No Stopping at Anytime" signs up around noon, but people are still parking anywhere they want. Idiots!
The family chosen have 11 kids and they live in a 4 bedroom/2 bathroom ranch. I'm sure they can really use the help, too bad the idiots have to come along with it. It's going to be real interesting around here for the next 8 days.
I think the show airs in November. If the link works, this is the house now.

Mammogram Time Again.
Yearly mammogram this morning.
Mammogram Breasts ___ ___
For years and years they told me, be careful of your breasts don’t ever squeeze or bruise them. & Give them monthly tests. So I heeded all their warnings, & protected them by law. Guarded them very carefully, & I always wore my bra. After 30 years of astute care, my gyno said let’s get a Mammogram. "O.K.," I said, "Let’s do it." "Stand up here real close" she said, (She got my boob in line), "And tell me when it hurts," she said. "Ah yes! Right there, that's fine." She stepped upon a pedal I could not believe my eyes! A plastic plate came slamming down, my knockers in a vice, my skin was stretched and mangled, from underneath my chin. My poor boob was being squashed, To Swedish Pancake thin. Excruciating pain I felt, within its vice-like grip. A prisoner in this vicious thing, my poor defenseless tit! "Take a deep breath" she said to me, who does she think she's kidding? My chest is mashed in her machine, and woozy I am getting. "There, that's good," I heard her say (The room was slowly swaying.) "Now, let's have a go at the other one." Have mercy, I was praying. It squeezed me from both up and down; it squeezed me from the side. I'll bet SHE'S never had this done to HER tender little hide. Next time they make me do this, I will request a blindfold. I have no wish to see again; my knockers getting steam rolled. If I had no problem when I came in, I surely have one now. If there had been a cyst in there, it would have gone "ker-pow!"
This machine was created by a man, of this, I have no doubt I'd like to stick his balls in there, and see how THEY come out.
Smile!

Dang!!!
Where the heck have I been? I just realized how long it's been since I've posted anything. It's probably because nothing interesting goes on here.
Charles has been working and going to class. Charlie's been working and traveling (North Carolina and Georgia). He's home now for a few weeks. Me, nothing much. Blood pressure and asthma/allergies are pretty much under control now. Cholesterol is another matter, but, I'm working on it.
Has anyone tried Alli ? I want to try it but not sure with the cholesterol meds. It's about time I did something with this "Baby-Weight" I've been lugging around for 20 yrs.
I have been to a couple Red Hat functions. Dinner at Shorty's and a pot-luck lunch/pool party.
We have a luncheon in Fremont in a couple weeks which should be fun. If we want we can pick an era between the 20's - 80's and wear clothes from that era. My neighbor picked the 50's and I'm going with the 20's. (A middle-aged flapper?) Now all I have to do is make my dress before the 16th. After that I'm making hat pins and earrings for the craft table at the luncheon our Chapter is hosting in November.
That's all for now!

Got up too Early
Was at the airport before 8:00 this morning. Unfortunately, I didn't get much sleep last night.
Charlie picked up a car from Hertz and is now on his way to Atlanta for the week. I, on the other hand, am going to take a nap in the recliner for a bit.
