Sigh
Well we've been wanting to have a garage sale for a while but it just wont stop raining! It's like everyday and everytime you turn around its raining!


Just a few minutes ago I was throwing out bread to the birds, lizards whatever gets to it. Bugs probably too many cats for too many birds to eat bread. That's the reason when we go to lunch each week I take bread there. Well I saw this cute short little dog. It looked a little like this dog in the series called wishbone. But our cats Grey and Demanding scared it off looking ready to kill it for being on their property. Otherwise I'd tie it up in the front yard till the owner came looking for it and took it. But the big dog that looks a little like maybe a boxer/pit bull mix that keeps hanging around, it had puppies so it has an owner just one that sends it out to fend for itself! That was another concern about tieing this little dog up. I don't think the big dog would hurt it as it runs off when you yell at it! But still...

   Neighbors strike again!
Well it seemed that everytime mom got gas not long after she started to notice that she was having to get gas more and more when we don't travel that far or often!

So mom started to suspect that the neighbors were stealing her gas! Well she finally had enough and bought a gas cap that locks! Well yesterday I noticed the door was slightly ajar. Odd as I didn't think it was like that before, but I let it slide thinking that perhaps it had been like that and I didn't notice it before. Well I made sure to shut it! Today again I noticed it was slightly ajar! It's not hard to realize that the neigbors are searching the truck for the key to the gas lock! Mom keeps it on her keychain and not in the truck! I made sure to lock it after that!

   The power company must die!
Its like every storm we always lose power but the neighbors don't! It's gotten better it used to be occasional blackouts rain or shine. That's since stopped.

I didn't call them immediatly after the blackout occured as I normally would as it was a raging bad storm outside. It's was about 6:50pm as we were watching the weather.

The wind was blowing like mad! Then suddenly the backdoor which I thought was locked but I guess wasn't, I guess it was just shut, it suddenly just blew open! I mean litterally blew open! Blew the rain in and everything. Mom said it got quiet before it happened, but maybe its me but all I heard was a raging storm. Plus the front door did not want stay closed! There is no clasp to keep the door closed, I don't know if there ever was. The only way to keep the door shut is to lock it. (Why not get a new door thingy? We have have one but mom says she needs a drill to do it.)

Anyway the lock is this side of comming out so it refused to shut. So I put a heavy pot of floor tile against it and it did nothing to keep the door shut! But I mean the wind was blowing hard and fast. After that I went to close it I kept hearing a kitty cry. I was thinking it was blackie but it was tipper. Oh she was scared. It's a bit unusal for her. But I let her in the house for a bit till the storm seem to subside some.

The after it all died down the neighbors on the otherwide that we always have problems with said that they had their front door open and saw something! They weren't really sure what they saw. The oldest kid was the one who came over and shocked us by asking if we were all right! Okay who are you and what did you do with our neighbors.

Anyway they think they saw a tornado but weren't exactly sure. The storms that moved through they said had been producing ones and then going right back up. But we never heard any sirens or anything so it could have easily been straight line winds. But my sister lives just a few miles from here and she had her overhang roof end up in the neighbors and some of her fence panels blew down. Her friend lives in grand prairie and she had said that in her neiborhood there were several trees blown down.

Here after the storm I went out to check and other than the flowerpot we put over the lawmower was blown over, a wire birdcage had been hanging up blew down. Other than that that's about all.

This morning there were a few twig limbs in front of the driveway but other than that, that's about all I could see in the way of damage. So there's no way to know if it really was a tornado or just straight line winds, but it was scarey!

We hoped the power would kick back in after the storm, but NO! I told you it went out at 6:30pm Wednesday, it now Thurday 10am and the power just now kicked back in!

   Demandings HOME!!
We've been worried about our cat demanding. Mom kept saying that something told her that the people who are painting the house next door took him. Well today he showed up! So I guess she was right! They did take him. We think because he's never been fixed and mom says boy cats pee in the air that that's one reason they returned him. I think they also wanted him for a house cat and he's totally annoying with constant meowing so he probably was meowing up a storm and didn't like it so they returned him. I'm like mom if they had wanted to take him, fine, but knowing we were caring for him they could have at least told us! Technically speeching he's a stray, but since he lives here and we feed him, he's basically ours.

   Today
Well not much happened. Saddly our cat Demanding is still missing! Then since yesterday our cat Nosey's been acting funny.

Well due to the rain and mom's laziness we didn't go to water yesterday. The people she's water the plants for live in a high price neighborhood and these people are currently on a world tour! Their due back next month. But Either this week or last week, some idiot thought it'd be cool to break into their house. Now this type of neighborhood all have secerity systems. This house it seems has double pane windows and was probably as shocked as I was if not more learning this. They had two small decoritive lights and they took one and that's what they used to smash the window. But only one of the two windows was broken. Their neighbors taped up what's left of the first window and put the lamp in their green room in the back. They said there was blood on the window but since there wasn't anything I'd say the storms that moved through yesterday has something to do with that. They said that this genius also tried to break into the house again in the backyard but he was a true genius he picked up a PLASTIC flower pot and threw it at the door thinking that will break the window! They have ceramic flower pots too that would have done the job but that's not one the genius chose. He also tried to break into the neighbors across the street!

After cleaning up the place and watering we got french fries and milshakes, then yes we went to the grocery store yesterday but there are just some things that Fiesta does not carry. Why beats me! We were in the neighborhood anyway so we went to Kroger and got the few things that got eliminated from the first list due to not in stock, they don't carry it, or we forgot it! Then we got home after 4pm so no nao! :(

So far
Well we went to bed after the warnings expired at 3 mostly cause all they talked about was flooding. Well we're on a hill so we don't bother paying attention. Even now they're are storms a few counties away. I swear to you it's like if there's nothing no tornado rotation or anything it's like the weather men sound disapointed! It's like that's supposed to be a good thing, stop sounding so damn disappointed!

Lunch
Well we went to lunch and well I went to get some more tea for my sister and more small french fries for me and I got the tea and I was going to pay for the french fries but the guy that works there knew us as we go there almost every week and he just waved me off. Gave me the french fries for free. It doesn't happen often but once in a while!

Today
Well first I tried on a new bra that we ordered and I couldn't figure out why it was too small till I checked the size and it was supposed to be size G but they screwed up and sent size C!
Then we went out to Denny's from breakfast, then we went to the grocery store. Then we came home and mom asked the guy renovation the house next door how much would he charge to just do the trim around the house. He said $1000! When he asked mom to give him an ammount she said $250 and he looked at her like she had gone mad! This is with us scrapping the vine that growing off and supplying the paint!
