Is that a bag of garbage in your pocket?

The other day I saw the show "Hoarders" for the first time. UGH! It was like watching a train wreck. One lady was loathe to throw away the rotten food which was taking over her entire house.It was disgusting. At the same time, you can't help wondering "how does this happen to someone?"


I have an Aunt who is a food hoarder. After seeing this show I decided that this must be a progressive condition. Right now ,my Aunt is in her early 60's but if she lives to be 80 or 90 ,I can totally see her house being taken over by her stockpiles of groceries.
In her case ,I know that she grew up dirt poor so she stockpiles the food in case she ever becomes poor again.




Do you know what this is?

It's a box of opened packs of sweetner.Decades ago,when I was really po' I used to save a little in the packs and then put them back in the box. Now, 30 years later,I still put the empties back in the box. Finally the day comes (like today) when I have to dump out the box to find any remaining full packets.

Crazy much?




Does this mean I am in the infancy of a serious hoarding condition? Do people that were born rich ever become hoarders? That doesn't seem to be the case. It looks like the common factor in all the hoarders is they suffered through "the lack of something" at some point in their lives.

Do you know any hoarders?Any rich hoarders? Do YOU hoard anything?

Come on , let's hear it. I'm really curious about this now.

Finally....a decent movie!

This movie is about a guy who gets engaged and then realizes he does not have a friend suitable for a best man. He goes on a series of "man dates" trying to make a new best friend. While it's not laugh out loud funny through the whole thing ,it is constantly entertaining. All the characters are likable and it does have some crude humor,but nothing I don't hear everyday in my "all male" family.

I loved this movie! Go get it :)

Is that a donkey I hear?

Hi strangers!

Yes, I know I've been a terribly negligent blogger lately. I have been consumed with that thing I'm not supposed to talk about.

That was my husbands comment. The first time he has EVER commented on my blog :)

I hope that every day will become easier and easier until I no longer even think of it.

Yesterday I had a girls day out. My friend Eva and I went and saw a play "The glass menagerie" all the other plays I have seen in this town have been comedies. This one was a tragedy . I have to say I prefer the comedies.

After the play we went and had a cheap dinner at outback. Salads and baked potatoes. Which was quite delicious ,actually.


Then we took Cavuto for his walk and cackled like lunatics.That's Eva walking Cavuto. I sound exactly like my sister, Soul. lol

Yes, we (Soul and I) do have such soft ladylike laughs. Err..I mean cackles.
What can I say ? We are delicate southern flowers.Bwa ha ha

We had a good time.I hope my sister is having enough fun on her vacation to cackle:)

Hubby sent me these pictures of my little English babies. :(







These are the sights that I see on my walk.

Some of my chillun's are in Key West right now. Man, would I love to be there!
They even offered to buy me a ticket to go. SOOOO TEMPTING.


But there was several kids going. With one cabin and one tent.


I had visions of my old lady self being stuck in "partay-ville" with no place to sleep, unable to yell at kids that weren't mine "be quiet you! I need my nap!"


So, reluctantly I had to decline. Wes will write us a detailed trip report when they get home . I can't wait to read all about it.



Have a great day peeps!

Luv me
