9:40am
I noticed a couple fleas on our cats.
They have flea collars.
I don't have the money to run out and buy expensive
flea treatments so needed a home remedy.
I found one that says to put 1 part
Avon's Skin So Soft Oil to 5 parts water
in a spray bottle and spray it on their fur.
Well I know my cats won't go for that because
they are trained to run from a spray bottle for being bad.
So instead I mixed it up in a bowl and dipped
a wash cloth in it and rubbed it on their back
and heads. That's as far as I got before they
took note that they were getting wet and ran.
You will need to reapply this every 6 days
to keep fleas off them.
Avon's Skin So Soft Bath Oil is also great to use
in a spray bottle mixed with water to use
as an insect repellent on your skin when outside.
You can also spray it around doors, windows, trash cans
to keep the bugs out.
If you have bees nests use insect spray to kill them
and remove nest. Spray with SSS to keep them from coming back.
Add some to a wash cloth and let it sit in your
car as an air freshener.
Mist it on your vegetable's plant leaves in the garden
to deter unwanted insects.
11:45am
Got some chili going in a crock.
I added in some red kidney beans I have been soaking
overnight in water with a little baking soda,
2 cans tomato soup, 1/3rd can of leftover spaghetti sauce,
1 pound hamburger
(cooked & drained before adding other ingredients),
can of tomatoes with juice and a packet of chili seasoning.
Will serve with crackers, shredded cheddar cheese
and onions.
3:30pm
I put miss girlfriend/fiance to the test.
She asked if we were going swimming tonight.
Told her no, hubby has to work late and I haven't
been hardly able to walk for the past couple of days.
She has a short term memory because I've had
to tell her hubby is working overtime so many
times now my head is starting to spin!
She's roaring to go places since my oldest son
got his vehicle fixed I see.
She has no car or license and is 25 years old.
I don't know why and I don't ask.
She asks me what I did to not be able
to walk and if they could still go swimming even
though we weren't going, all in the same sentence.
I deliberately left out what has happened to me
and just told them they could go swimming.
Then she asks when the pools close, if they could cook out,
yaddah yaddah.
Her conversation goes in the direction of what can I get out of
you once again, wanting the permission to use the pool
and grill at hubby's work.
The conversation never went back to,
why can't you hardly walk.
I don't expect a pity party or anything of the sort
but if one day you plan to become family
you're going to have to show that you care somewhat.
So far she's failing my tests.
So far all I see is give me, give me, what can you do for me.
I don't expect her to do anything for me but the
thought of caring would be nice.
Sure would be nice if they go swimming if they
would stop by for a visit considering
they would only be 5 miles away.
I'm sure that won't happen.
She don't like to stay long when they do visit.
Do you think she would say to my son,
we better check up on your mom since
we're on this end of town because she is not feeling well,
maybe she needs help with something?
To me all I see out of her is that she can
be a little mean and controlling at times.
Now if I said I found a purse for her she
would be over here in a heartbeat and stay about a minute!
Oh another thing I cannot stand is that if someone IMs you
and you respond right away, then why in the world
does it take 45 minutes to respond back to a person.
I'm not the one starting the conversation.
Oh this drives me nuts. Yup, she does that.
Yes I'm still in a lot of pain! No I can't get
around very well. Yes I still have many things
I would like to get done and it's pissing me
off that I can't do them at the moment.
I get irritable and the pain starts talking.
I've tried ibuprofen and icy hot pain rub.
Nothing is working.
So there's my rant for today.
