It got 38 here last night, that is darn cold.
I need to do yard work and I need to clean in the house. I have not done either very much for awhile.
I talked to hubs this morning, he lost Smokey last night. He couldn't find him. He said he went through all the buildings, even the tool trailer and he called and called so he thought he was hiding in the house. He said I closed the doors and all and went to bed. He got up this morning and no kitty. He said I opened the garage door and he zipped in. He ate his food and went to sleep and has slept all day. Hubs thinks he was awake all night. He said I just thought he was hiding in the house. We are so lucky a raccoon didn't get hmm, I hope it doesn't happen again. Hubs is pretty careful for me, because he knows I love the little critter.
I'm pretty happy this morning, likely because I am doing nothing, LOL!
I found a show I've been watching, I'm on episode 7 and its called Our Girl, its a British show, really good. About a girl that went into the British army and became a medic. I really like it.

I had green beans with bacon, baked ham, and fried potatoes. I bought some Cinnabons at the mall for dessert.

I am jealous. I think my kitties are falling for hubs.
I called the other evening and he said Tiggy was sitting on the back of his recliner and Smoke was laying on his lap, on his back with his tummy up. He NEVER does anything like that except for me. I think they are falling in love with hubs. I'm losing my babies. I'm glad they like him, but I'm still jealous. They are my sweeties and I sure miss them.
Little guy went home this evening, I'm tired. I took he and DD to the mall. We walked through the mall with DD pushing her walker for awhile, than I pushed her. Actually helped me too as I kept on balance that way. I let little guy ride a toy they have in there, this one looked like a motorcycle, he got to rid it for 15 minutes, had great fun.
I told DD each time we go she should walk a little further. I hope she can, it could actually help her.

Kind of sounds like to me, that the estate is where the estate tax would go since no one got the money, I may be mistaken. There is no federal unless over $13 plus million, and its state.

Son sent me pictures of under that house. That thing had like a concrete block and then a piece of wood from it to a floor joist and that was holding the floors and didn't look like enough of them. We sure dodged a bullet on that thing. It's not worth $375k, that's why we look them over. If the foundation isn't good, the house isn't. No wonder the floor felt bouncy and weird.

We did have pancakes. I found Bisquick mix, the kids liked it. I went around the corner of the park and bought syrup. I could go out my gate and walk next door to the convenience store, but I drove. The gate isn't in the best shape. Grandson has been out riding on his scooterl I sit out and watch and we just let him go to the end of the street right now. That's what is good here too. I have sidewalks and a long patio, carport, then the asphalt streets that have been repaved. So he has lots of places to ride it. We can walk 800 ft to the pier on the lake here too.
I am baking an 8 pound ham, going to give half to the kids. Make DD ham salad, and some sandwiches, then a pot of bean soup and corn bread.
It is a beautiful sunshiny day, grandson is wanting to go somewhere and DD just for a drive. We may go south, I really haven't went much of anywhere since being here. We did go to the coast one day, but I'm thinking of either going to downtown Olympia or to Rochester south of us. I am going to look and see when that Garfield movie starts, I still want to see it.
Need to get my other bag of trash out, took the recycle stuff, will get grandson to do it. Make up the bed, fold a load of clothes and dry another. Tomorrow, if nice yard work. Son is cleaning his roof, I can tell his back is getting him. I have been taking 2 pain pills at night and sleeping on the couch and sleeping pretty good the last week.

I need to vacuum, dust, and yard work and I'm doing nothing but sitting around.
I don't have any pancake mix, but I think there is enough flour, and other ingredients to make from scratch. I mentioned pancakes, need to check on syrup too.
I woke up at 8, lay back down for an hour. I'm just lazy and getting moreso I guess.
And I'm out of coffee and want a McD's cup. But if I take little guy he and DD will want McD's and my eating out budget is strained for a bit. We have spent a lot eating out, I don't mind but need to pull back a bit for a few days, then we will go again.
Hubs said leave him with DD, but the kids and I think we need to wait till he is about 10. It is very safe out here but still don't want to do it yet. I told hubs after looking at that other house this place looked like a mansion, LOL! I wish we owned the lot and could put a building here because I really do like it here and its safe. That is important to me. They won't sell to people with felonies or police records so its a good place.

It is so cold here. Little guy brought his scooter and has been out running up and down the street in the subdivision. He needed to wear off some energy, but it got to cold to stay out there, brrrr.
Our furnace has run every night since I've been here.

My hubs loves where we live. And neither of us wants to be so close you can reach the other house. All the new houses up here are being built with a walkway between them, to me glorified apartments. I just can't do that, that is why we are looking at older homes with at least a yard.
We are pretty much realizing, or he is we are going to have to go at least $500k or even $550k to do it and we don't want to pull that much out of investments. So we are back to selling again before we move. If I could get him to store stuff we could go ahead and get the house on the market, but he is a stubborn man. I will go home and start getting ready for a big yard sale, told him he will have to help me.
The house had so many issues, it has been a rental for years. The stove, fridge, nor d/w were good, they were nasty. The kitchen sink had a pipe out and water was running in a pan. The cabinets were solid, could be refinished an had new doors and countertop put on and would have been fine. The living room and kitchen layout wasn't bad. I think the septic had been redone. But something was wrong under the house. Son said all the insulation under the floor had been removed and none of the ductwork was insulated. And they put in new carpet, we think to hide something, there were soft spots in some of the floors. There was new insulation in the attic, we think either flooding under the floor or leaking above, so just too much. Son said likely take a year or two to redo it. And the oddest bathroom. In the master walked into a sink and commode, in the next room, a tub, turn the corner and a sink and toilet, no 2 showers or tub??

I just erased my whole damn post somehow, I had spelled all the stuff wrong with the house. Let's just say way too much. It was pretty bad. Hubs is finally realizing we are going to have to go $500 to $550k to get something decent. Our son felt like there were issues with the floors they were trying to cover up with the carpet. Places in the floor were soft. And all the insulation under the floor was torn out and no insulation on furnace pipes. Son is thinking flooding issues like he had. Just too much.
The reason we are looking at older is because the new ones have no yard unless you pay a small fortune for them, otherwise we would just buy new.
It's ok, just need to be patient.
Son went with us and looked everything over for me. Love that boy.

6 acres really isn't enough to farm. Would be ok for a cow or chickens. That's not enough land to support much. And you would need a tractor or big zero turn to mow all of that. Or just leave it natural if its a pretty setting.

I think distance from the family, both of them would be the best thing in the world for both of you. Remember I said getting away from my in-laws was what saved our marriage. My folks only interfered to help and hubs appreciated it. He would not say anything to his family either but I'm sure he realized the problems they caused. Make it difficult for all of them to "drop" in on you whenever.
And I think Mister wants to save your relationship, like many men he is likely not sure how to approach it. Most of them are obtuse. You have to really spell things out.
At some point he will have to cut the daughters off or he will be paying for failed marriages and raising grandkids and that's where you come in. I would take him up on the move, if he is financing it. And also you might find a house you like better and that is safer.
Good luck
We are going house looking at 1. Son is going too.
I got comittments out of hubs about new cabinets if needed, hardwood floors, new furnace with AC and many other things. Since the house could be valued at $485k if nice we can probably do most of the work for $50k or so ourselves. It won't be fast but we can do it and h ave a gorgeous place. It's a very pretty setting. I have a list of all the things I need to check so I don't forget. Already found the survey and plat.
I'm a little excited. Hubs thinks we should low ball it, no not up here at this time. I'm thinking of just a few dollars over list.
I would make a full price offer, no repairs, but want to have inspected with right of refusal due to inspection. That way if some serious foundation problem or something exists we could walk away. Also we then know what needs to be repaired and can put dollar signs to it.

Pink, would you like to live on 6 acres, I assume out further? Could be pretty nice and safer too. You guys are young, would be a great place for his son to grow up on.

Must be a phase of the moon or something, little guy took the trash out for me and didn't even fuss. DD has been cooperative.
Son worked all day to fix DIL's brakes. So lot of good people moves here too. Sounds like everyone had family do what they should.
MPL, I'm glad you got Gus's hooves fixed, poor old guy.
Hope good thing happen for everyone, especially those looking for better job situations. I know that can be miserable.

Grandson is here for the weekend I'm sure, LOL! His mom made spaghetti sauce and it was great, best I've eaten, much better than mine, I need to get her recipe. The kids loved it.
We have an injured bunny in the yard. He/she is here most every day. I noticed it lying down for a bit. The fur on the back right leg looked messed up. When I looked later it's little leg was crooked. He was eating. I tried to call a wildlife rehabber but everything was closed for the day. I think the little thing goes under the modular of the shed. I found a whole under each at the corner when pulling weeds. I bet a car hit him or an animal got him, now I'm worried about him and will. With it being the weekend I bet I can't reach anyone. I did read how to catch him and what to keep him in until I get in touch with someone, but over the weekend? Poor baby.
I am going to look at a house not to far from here. We know it needs work from the price, its $375k. I would say the worst looking place in the neighborhood. But its a beautiful neighborhood and I think from looking up property records and such it has been a rental. It has the potential to be a very nice place. Son is going with me tomorrow. It's close to 1400 sq ft, 2 car garage, nice lot, fenced but overgrown in front. They are saying highest price but we will go list only, as is, and all cash. Many times that will buy one. Looks like the prices for nice ones there are $100k more, but this one is ugly now. All grown up across the front, ugly paint colors inside, they put in new carpet, and just needs a lot. But nothing we can't do. I told hubs if he doesn't like it, we can slowly fix up and sell later. I think its mostly aesthetics. We just saw a modular out here where we live on Black Lake go up for sale at $165k and another down the street. That would be a nice profit on this one too, since we paid $70k for it. We don't intend to flip anything but hey. We can paint pretty cheap and not hard for us to do. And cleaning is not so hard either. I doubt we get it but like hubs said this would work as we could get here and move what we want, sell the rest and get our house up for sale. Hubs is like me, we are tired and just want to get this done. We can clean and and make habitable if we get it and put this place and the other house up for sale. We will have to deal with the third place after the fact, but those two will allow us to more than replace our cash. If we get it fine, if not fine, we are not doing bidding wars.

It was a good day. DIL and I spent time together, we got the rest of the ingredients for gumbo, I made it, she made jasmine rice for this and another Philipino dish she made. We went to Home Depot and got her a hose nozzle, I picked up a hose and nozzle even though will not get much use from it this summer. Mine down home are in poor shape and DD can likely use it too. I threw the old ones here away.
We went to Home Goods to look around but did not buy anything then got the kids McD's. I looked at a picture, but no point in getting anything before we get a home and then it might not even go with it. Went to pick up grandson and son went to buy rotors and brakes for her car. He is taking most of the week off to fix them. He got in about 11.
Then he came by too and we ate gumbo.
I bought green beans but really don't have enough for all of us. Think I will bake a ham tomorrow, make scalloped potatoes and have green beans with it. Might even bake some banana nut muffins.
Not doing much of anything, it was pretty cool here today. I may do a little yard work tomorrow. Just going to mess around, if they need the car they can use it tomorrow. I'm sure grandson will be here this weekend. He likes to come here.
DIL and DD played a kind of game for about an hour, DD loved it and DIL has patience with her. It's nice for her to have someone else in her life and grandson is very nice to her also.
Going to get my shower and wash my hair, had a really good day, and also hubs results, made me so very happy.

MPL, I'm curious, why does a horse that's foundered need his feet treated more often?
My hubs PSA is .006! But the ideal was to be 0, does that mean there is still some cancer there?
At least it is way way down from .533.

Haven't gotten the results of hubs PSA yet. I was awake at 5 this morning couldn't sleep. I am so worried about him.
I talked to him this evening and was telling him I missed him, he told me he really missed me too. He doesn't admit that often.
We are hoping its ready tomorrow, otherwise will have to wait till next Wednesday when he goes in to see his doc.
We all went out to lunch at the Budd Bay restaurant on the water in downtown Olympia, it was very good and quite expensive. But we all enjoyed it.
Have grandsons 3 gifts, his mom said he will love them. And I'm hoping he will get his Oyla mag subscription started, she said he will really like that. So that is done.
I am ready for bed and involved in a movie.

The walk in clinic did give me something for cough last time that worked. I believe it is called benzonatate.
Still no results for hubs test. I hope we can see it. He has an appointment next Wednesday if we can't.

I have slept sporadically all night. Today hubs got his PSA test again. I called him and he has already had it. So now I need to keep signing into his patient portal to see the results. I am so nervous. I called him he got there early to get it done, he said not worrying me. Sure that was why he was there at 7:30 before some of the labs even opened. Hope that one does it to the portal.
If I lay back down likely will sleep till noon. Guess I could set an alarm.
Wish us good luck, I'm worried sick over this.
We got the bank accounts, my car, the 2 houses with the trust designation. But still have 2 401k's, one should be done, the big one isn't but we can do it over the phone soon as I get home, both of us has to be on the call. Then I have the bonds and The stock. I'm going to try getting a treasury direct account open today and tomorrow for the bonds then can send them in when I get home. The attorney is prodding us to get it done, but I ran out of time, than got up here and forgot about it to be honest.
Now the waiting.
I hope we don't have to wait till next Wednesday to see the results, I will be a nervous wreck, waiting. Nothing there yet, didn't expect it yet, but checked anyway.

I finally heard what happened here mostly on the news today.
The wreck involved 2 vehicles and a motorcycle. They said a truck slowed down and was turning right, the motorcycle was behind him. The car behind it did not slow down. The motorcycle went under the truck and when the car hit apparently a fire started. The truck was able to move forward and they were not hurt and ran back and got the motorcycle guy out and then helped the car driver out too. He ran back to get something out of the car. I'm sure the motorcycle guy was the one that was air lifted out to Seattle. The driver of the car was treated at the scene and was arrested. But they didn't say anything about the light pole, its obvious it had been replaced and I'm betting they hit it too. So some was left out, it then stated that 2 of the people were related. I'm betting 2 of those were the ones racing, a car and motorcycle were racing before. Guess what, tonight no car nor motorcycle going by here 100 mph. I bet the poor guy on the cycle is really tore up and could be lucky to live.
It still gives me the creeps that grandson and I just missed that.
I used the bathtub polishing Wax on 2 sides of the shower stall, really makes it look nice. But like paste wax on a car, hard to get off. Wish I had my buffer up here. Tomorrow I will do the side with the faucet and the bottom. It says put it on a dry tub bottom or sides or it can be slick.
I have a hard time standing in a shower. When I wash my face I have to stand in the corner and lean up against the wall so I won't fall. I am very unstable. But it's the same if I close my eyes anywhere standing up.. I've had balance problems for years and years. It's very aggravating believe me.
DIL, DD, and I are going downtown tomorrow for lunch and then to a seafood shop on the wharf. I want to get ingredients for gumbo. Anxious to see what they have.

I bought from Amazon, Bathtub Polishing Wax. I did the bathroom sink and it looks great. I did a section of the tub and it looks really good too, we are talking an old green bathtub so you know its old. I want to do the shower first to make sure I have enough.
Son gave me an update about the wreck. He said the scanner last night asked people not to take and post pictures to Facebook. He said that generally means a death or deaths. It was 2 cars hitting head on and a motorcycle, one was life flighted. Looked like a white sheet on the ground. I'm betting it was the ones racing out here, sounded like a cycle or two and a car. And I have heard nothing today, we will see after tonight. What freaks me out is grandson and I had just came through there not long before it happened and buses were still running. They also ran into the light pole, worked on it last night till 10 or after from 4.

I want a cup of McD's coffee, the drive isn't far, but hate to do it. I'm lazy today. DD and I are both cold so turned the furnace back up to 74, hate to as the day will likely heat up. It's 66 out now and she took a hot bath and put on her heavy jams, so she is good now. It was at least 48 last night.
I slept on the couch again, feels better than the bed actually. I miss my kitties, and my hubs. I asked him if he was sealing anything to stop the mice, uh no. Guess we will have to do it together.
He said today its raining down home, its beautiful here today.
I keep sitting here and falling asleep. What a waste of a beautiful day. DD and I are going for a drive soon. Going to go look at another place. It says 20 minutes away, but I bet it is further than that. Hubs and I are not really wanting a modular. He said they are ok, but he doesn't like the wiring. He said like this one they only use 10 gauge and he prefers 12. And just other things he isn't happy with. I just don't want to live out in a secluded place as I age. But finding any kind of a garage around here is very difficult. He doesn't want anything like he has at home but he does want one where he can tinker around. I'm sure he will help the kids fix stuff on their house if he is able.

I have this cough, had it before I left. It's productive, as they say and I can hear it in my lungs at night. I have been plagued with this the last year. The doxycycline got rid of it for awhile but then its back again. I have thought about going to the ER see if I can get a shot and antibiotics for it again to get rid of it. But hate to go sit in those places. It worries me that it won't go away and stay away.

My hubs had one cut off his arm, they said it was way deeper than they thought, it was malignant. They got it all and he has never had anymore issues. It was from him being in the sun so much, especially the 15 years he worked in hot countries. He did have to get religious about putting sunscreen on his ears because they were starting to look funny. But that took care of them.
I was baptized Catholic as a baby, then later as non-denominational, then I never followed through. DD was as non-den. But apparently we do well as sinners. And like I said the last few years as done me in. These people aren't Christians they are cult members.

I don't cook very well up here. I had shredded wheat and milk, then a blueberry fig bar. After that a thin pork chop.
DD wanted some beef ramen soup, I asked her if she wanted something else, she said no. Not exactly haute cuisine.
I want another pork chop but nope. I will eat a sweetie orange if I want something else, need to buy more of those. If DD wants anything else will make her a sandwich.
I just gnawed the bone, I like pork chops!!

When I was working I was told to smile as I looked mad?? As an accountant most of the time I worked alone, the majority of the time. Plus I dealt with people over the phone, rarely had face to face with anyone, so why did this matter? But I was told more than once.
Also I was told I needed to motivate other employees, say what? I told them I felt people were internally motivated or not, likely wasn't much I could do to make them motivated. My job was numbers, reports, billings, and dealing with construction people in the field. What BS and they would keep on about the smiling. Worked another place and no one ever said a thing about it.
So nice to be in retirement.

The last 3 days we have had some cars and motorcycles driving like crazy out here. I think it may be the same bunch. Never heard that before, its generally quite here.
So about 4 this afternoon just down the street a real wreck, its only a block or so away but I didn't hear anything. DIL came in and said what happened, I looked out and there was smoke. She said there was a big fire. I guess son looked it up a car hit a light pole and something caught on fire, car, electric or what? Since the road is still closed at 7 I'm guessing its a fatality or fatalities down there. We came in and looked like someone on the ground. I'm beating its some of the idiots driving like that. I had told hubs and son that someone was going to get killed the way they were driving the last 3 evenings. Last night I almost called the police to report it. My worry was some old person was going to get hit coming out of this over 55 community. I mean they were driving crazy fast. The school is maybe a half mile down the road and buses all over at that time as I had just come home from picking up little guy. I'm betting that was one of them. It was bound to happen, you can't drive like that in high density neighborhoods like this. Normally its pretty quiet out here.

I gave up on churches long ago, for some of the reasons others have said. And the nonacceptance of DD too. Then after trump came on the scene and all these so called Christians went Gaga over him, I was done. They sure don't understand the Bible or the teachings of they follow that piece of whatever. So done, I will just try to live a good life and hope for the best.

i'm pretty happy overall, just have to be careful, traveling back and forth is expensive, actually cost more to drive most times than to fly. But flying sure wears me out. The walking through the terminals, I'm going to have to go to a wheel chair too I'm pretty sure. I hate that but don't want to hurt for a day or two afterwards. I'm also going to start wearing my back support belt, it helps. I worry at some point my back issue will be to bad. The spongy part between the disks is drying out and at some point that is either going to pinch something or the pain will get to be too much I fear. Same with the feet. I dread facing those days, just trying to stay mobile.
