Was going to do the monster mash but lost the way not the will

I had grand plans for decorating the house like a haunted a mansion but lost my way a little here so we are leaving that for next year. We are finding that now that friends and relatives know about the more serious diagnosis, everyone has gone into hiding , being afraid to see me drool or stumble like Igor I guess!
I don't know how to get rid of this font. I got great pumpkin carving ideas from the net from the net but pumkins are ridiculous-a gallon of gas or a pumpkin to possibly mess up in the cut , weigh your options carefully!

Decisions, Decisions, Decisions

Is it really necessary to lay out 6 pieces of silver for a dinner? Where is the green in that? At what point can you not eat your meat with the same fork that touched that tomato. And once that fork touches that meat, it can't slowly slide like a stripper down a pole through the cake? How boug something! There would have been more but we were low class Arkansas and didn't have a soup round. So you are asking if I ate the cake. Yes. I am dying. As are you. You should eat the cake. You do not know what tomorrow might bring. Of course, it might bring a whole lot of tomorrows and lots more cake and then you will need to run a lot but since you have lots of time to run, it all works out great, so let them eat cake. and you too.

Codi and I

We spent the weekend in Bentonville and I enjoyed my favorite occupation of slathering attention on my children. Sach was auctioneer for a charity function called HOPE ( helping oncology patients excel) and we attended with them. Saturday morning Codi's mom and sister gave her a baby shower at her house and fun times were had by all. We came home yesterday. I will keep this short as I am having a terrible time typing.

Each day it seems that the distinction between right and left becomes more difficult and typing is most assuredly a skill that uses these 2 areas.

I seem to be dealing with the diagnosis of parkinson's better than the people around me, yet I have known for months that this was the case and they are just now being told so patience is the watch word for loved ones as they adjust. once they get past the stage of watching me constantly, then we can move on.

Holy Cow-I discovered Snapfish!

A double dose of this shot from Mayo-they had given me adrenaline-check out the eyes

Jumping jeosaphat! I discovered how to send my pictures to Snapfish and order right here from the comfort of my home. I also am learning how to use Paypal! Just send me your wants and wishes and I'll get right to my sickness-buying.

We have not squandered this day. Eddy has brushhogged all day except for the time that we tried to watch the Razorbacks, but I'm not fond of ogling train wrecks. I can run this fast, make these on-the -line decisions and tackle. sign me up.

I have a true mess as I drag every fall decoration out. Can't do it unless I can see what is available. Didn't buy anything new as this time last year , I was bedfast or slow , actually. I have sent a lot of you a slide show of our soccer game at Labor day. on labor day, whatever. Just learned how to do this too.

I need to post the pics from Florida. Just haven't wanted to examine that 2 weeks of my life again yet , but I guess I'm to that point on my blog.

So sorry about 2 of the same shot above. just too ragged really to blog

The Day After

Eddy promised me this home in Florida-
I am so mad at the View. They had such a great fight yesterday and today after the debates I was so ready to watch. Now we are making nice, no politics, not a word. They are discussing when your child gets a fever, for glory's sake. And fashion, which I love but I wanted to see some mud wrestling!
Sarah Palin was a nitwit last night. Can you let this woman have a chance to push buttons? I would rather have Martha Stewart for vp. At least she survived prison, makes millions, knows how to cheat and survive on Wall Street. I don't want my leaders to be like me. I know soccer. I don't know how to run a country or finagle a government into order.

Just Casual Thoughts

It is so incredibly nice to know that I have been missed at this blog. I have received so many emails asking why the lack there of. Well, I have been busy or sick. Take your pick. I am losing some control of my right side and this has created some problems with typing or just making my right arm and hand do what is needed for insync operations like typing. Knowing what someone is doing is a village need, even a stranger who you have never met can entrance you and lead you to friendship as I have found with over 15 new blog and email friends.

I, also, am rarely left alone these days because of protection subscribed to by my 29 year old marriage license and my time to blog is restricted by people being around. So.....one day Julia has me

one day my mother comes out here

one day Eddy takes me to meet my parents and they take me to their house

two days on weekend either Eddy or a sister has me

that leaves me 2 days of solitude-either feast or famine around here.

this probably means that my blogs will get shorter but I'll increase the frequency, I'm sure when the days get cold and rainy.
