New Tricks

In Loving memory of my dear sweet Daisy. 9/01/2010

It is hard to teach an old dog new tricks, at my age I don’t like change, but VOX has forced my hand.  With Janie’s help I managed to retrieve my VOX info.  Hope to meet my old neighbors real soon.  Greetings from Grandma-P

Hope to see you

I'll be here https://grandmap7.wordpress.com if I ever figure out how to use it.  Help Janie, I need you.  Haven't been able to transfer my old stuff.  I'll see you all there one of these days.

Short Cat Story

 

Cat suddenly appears in neighborhood.  (Very friendly, evidence it had once been someone's pet)

Lady in neighborhood feeds cat. (mentions maybe that wasn't a good idea)

Second day, talk with a couple of people and decide it should be taken to Human Society.

Third day, didn't see cat.

Fourth day evening, cat gets hit by a car then hides. 

Fifth day morning, cat is found crying and dragging its self with hind legs paralyzed.

Call animal control so cat can be put out of it misery.

Note to coward who dropped cat in neighborhood, because of you and your lack of responsibility toward your own pet several people had to be put through pain and sorrow seeing your cat suffer.  I shutter to think of the anguish and unrelenting pain that poor cat suffered all night long.  The responsible thing for you to have done if you were unable to care for it was take your pet to the Human Society.

Great Way to Start the Morning

Mr P made me a tasty breakfast of eggs and sausage,  as my routine after eating breakfast I take my morning pills.  I picked up my Sunday thru Saturday pill case and proceed to get my pills out and one pill falls in the dishwater.  I fish around in the water to find the allusive pill discovering its my blood pressure pill.  Frugal person that I am I consider rinsing it off and taking it but splurged and threw it away and took a dry one out of the bottle.  Throwing that pill away was not an easy thing to do, being frugal can be very stressful at times.  I think I'm proud of me!

Totally Plagiarized

I have been totally too busy and experiencing brain fog when it comes to blogging so I will share this email with you…     This doctor has some unique ideas that I thought you would appreciate.   Doctor           Q: Doctor, I've heard that cardiovascular exercise can prolong life. Is this true?  A: Heart only good for so many beats, and that it… Don't waste on exercise. Everything wear out eventually. Speed up heart not make live longer; that like say you can extend life of car by driving faster. Want live longer? Take nap.    Q: Should I cut down on meat and eat more fruits and vegetables?  A: You must grasp logistical efficiencies. What does cow eat? Hay and corn. What are these? Vegetables. So, steak nothing more than efficient mechanism of delivering vegetables to system. Need grain? Eat chicken. Beef also good source of field grass (green leafy vegetable). And pork chop can give 100% recommended daily allowance of vegetable products.    Q: Should I reduce my alcohol intake?  A: No, not at all. Wine made from fruit. Brandy is distilled wine. That means they take water out of fruity bit; get even more of goodness that way. Beer also made out of grain. Bottoms up!    Q: How can I calculate my body/fat ratio?  A: If you have body and you have fat, ratio is one to one. If you have two bodies, ratio is two to one, etc.    Q: What are some of the advantages of participating in a regular exercise program?  A: Cannot think of single one, sorry. My philosophy: No Pain…Good!    Q: Aren't fried foods bad for you?  A: YOU NOT LISTENING!!! …. Foods fried in vegetable oil. How getting more vegetables be bad for you?    Q: Will sit-ups help prevent me from getting a little soft around the middle?  A: Definitely not! When you exercise muscle, it get bigger. You should only do sit-ups if want bigger stomach.    Q: Is chocolate bad for me?  A: You crazy? HELLO … Cocoa beans! Vegetable!!! Cocoa beans best feel-good food around!    Q: Is swimming good for your figure?  A: If swimming good for figure, explain whales to me.    Q: Is getting in-shape important for my lifestyle?  A: Hey! 'Round' is shape!    Well, I hope this has cleared up any misconceptions you may have had about food and diets.
