that it looks like up to me

I been sick...

Finally caught the flu I'd been dodging for months. Wouldn't be so bad but I fell on some steps the night the bug caught me so I have been left handed and sore all over for the last several days. I'm getting over it now but still have the head congestion. At least I got part of the use of my shoulder back.

I have been trying to get stuff done but things seem to conspire against me. Missed an appointment I had already reset twice...hate that. Can't get to the cousin's house until this afternoon and it's been nagging at my heart to get done for days. I have a small fridge to deliver to a friend and can't find a healthy back to help unload it - I sure can't do it right now....just minor delays and annoying circumstances, no major problems, but it drags at me.

I'm gonna get 'er done! I want to get things back where they belong - on track.

My unemployment being messed up put my budget out of whack but I think that is going to get fixed this week and be back where I know what to pay when again. I'm thankful. I like covering the expenses and running legal.

Some kids looked at my house and I don't think they will buy it but they will dream about it and dreams are good to have.

My friend I've been helping with paperwork has an appointment Tuesday with a worker for SSD and I have my fingers crossed and prayers going up that they will finally see he needs the help they can give him. He's really been down so long that a mole hill looks like up. We should be able to take care of those who are ill better than that.

Getting ready to hunker down and write in place of other (perhaps more fun and social) activities for the snow season. So I'll be back here more often. I'll get caught up with all of you again, too.

Thanks for dropping in.

Been layin round n playin round

This old town too long - so I'm gonna whip this off and go to jam in the next town over.

I got the unemployment straightened out. I qualified for a Bridge Card/food stamps - 16.00 a month. It's a tank of gas....I can use it.

I'm good till the end of February and if the new 20 weeks counts for me then I will be good further on down the line...or I'll find work.

Am pleased to report that my grand, BigE, got a job as a temp that may go full time if they like him. I was so GLAD for him. He has been looking over a year, too.

Helped a friend get emergency help with their electric bill. Now trying to get the SS Disability filed correctly for them. Six hours on line filling out forms and probably four more to go to get it finished....but we are getting it.

So I'm stayin busy. I need to update websites this week and get the bills mailed today.

But I'm doing the forms later this afternoon so I'm headed for a jam session.

Later all.
