"That's Just the Way it Is"

That's Just the Way it Is"

When things happen

And you feel sad

and you fee like crying

and you get mad..

Lies, betrayal

It's all there

Spinning you

Your  Soul is bare.

Giving up 

Is hard to do

Survive you must

So come on through

Wonder why

Plans go awry?

That's just the way

It is 

Poor Guy.

Get rid of BAD SMELLS!

    GET RID OF BAD SMELLS!

     After doing research to rid the smell of mice in a stored car, I accidentally found this link!

http://www.pinkexstink.com/order.htm

     This is volcanic gravel from Australia that takes the smell out of urine, vomit, feces, smoke, mold, mildew,  pets, etc; and leaves no smell at all to replace it except just clean.  I ordered 30 pounds in order to get the  reduced price.  It is added to pet foods for the mineral content so is safe to rub the powder form right on your pets..   They have dice to hang in your car that will help with  smoke smells. I made some adorable room deodorizers by placing 3/4 cup of the gravel into those pretty cloth gift bags with ribbons.  See some like the ones I purchased  at:   http://img.alibaba.com/photo/51161821/Organza_Sheer_Gift_Pouches.jpg  

I have nothing to do with sales. I am a sharer and just like to pass on a good tip.    :)

The sales person I talked to said that one guy eats a teaspoon a day  for health.  I don't think I am ready to try that but it was interesting.

~Failed Birth Control~

~ Failed Birth  Control~

I witnessed this when I was six.  

Our dog and a stray male dog had somehow gotten their bottoms stuck together and were 

frantically trying to run away from each other.  Our dog was crying.  My Daddy got a big pail of ice cold water and poured it over their bottoms.  Then they got unstuck..  The male dog ran away and our dog went to her secret hiding place and kept licking herself.  She was still crying and I felt sorry for her.  Later she  had a big batch of puppies that looked just like the stray dog.

~Hypnotic Trance~

Go to this link and listen to this video.

She puts me into a trance like state.

I  don't pay too much  attention to  what she says but I think it  is deep.

The background noise wakes me up on occasion.  

I wish she would say "WAKE UP" at the end.

If you don't hear from me for awhile, I am tranced. 

Here is the link:

~The Car Mice Problem!

~The Car Mice Menace~

Mice chew wires in cars and cause thousands of dollars worth of damage. Some wires are coated  with  soy oil which makes them tasty.  Go here to find out how  to make an easy mouse trap that will catch lots of them for a very small price. (pail, coat hanger, pop  can and peanut butter, water  or anti-freez in winter)  It is number 239 on this link:

WombatNation » Mice Ate My Car

Mice can cause lots of disease.  Stored cars are good targets but any car can have mice.

Do not eat in your car, keep bird food in tightly covered plastic pails., catch bird seed in tarps under feeders and dump each night in trash  bags. Do not make a buffet for rodents.  

We made the above trap in ten minutes. Check it out.  

Mice will make a nest in your air filter, glove box, under the back seat, on the motor, near the  wipers, almost anyplace they when they can find a hole bigger than a dime to enter into your vehicle.  They will urinate on everything and it will smell.  Watch for mice feces. ewww

I hope you never have the problem, but look at the entries on the above link.  It is a common problem.

~ A Yummy Sandwich~

I just discovered Panera Sunflower Bread.  

http://www.panerabread.com/

It made me remember to make my favorite egg salad.  

In a heavy pan place a dozen eggs and  just barely cover with water.

Turn on high heat and set timer for 22 minutes.   When timer rings: 

Take off burner and cover with cold water .  Tap each egg on both sides and place back in water.

Then peel immediately.  Put in fridge to cool.

For one dozen cold eggs I use one medium chopped sweet onion.

1/2 cup midget sweet pickles chopped. 

Chop eggs...I use a hand box chopper for pickles, onions and eggs. See it at:

Add Mayo or Miracle whip to taste. 

The bread is good toasted too.  

Mmmmm Good!

~More on Words~

I told you what I think of the word Blog....Now I want to complain about the Kudos word.

I know what it means but I still think it sound like a male Cootie.  Words have a strong effect on my nervous system.  .  I know a girl who says her skin crawls when she hears the word "fresh".

Now she has put that into my brain.  The word doesn't bother me, yet, whenever  I hear  it,  I remember how it makes her feel.

Humongous  is another word that sends me up the wall.  I can hardly type it and now I feel sick  to my  stomach.  

    It still irritates me that they now pronounce strength..strenth...I always think they have a lisp.  What was wrong with the g sound?  Strength with a g sounds strong.  Strenth sounds like a   weakling by comparison.   They should never change the pronunciation of words.  Isn't learning them once, enough?   Who decides to do that?  I  would like to give him a "Fresh" Humongous

Cootie!

~ Blog Me~

'Blog Me"

Who named it Blog?

I hate that word!

It sounds like something

You hacked up 

And need to spit out!

(well, maybe it is appropriate

after scanning mine)

The word makes me think of

Bog, blob, gob, and fog

to name a few.

Nothing pretty or light

Maybe why my entries 

Are so dark and sad.

Soon it may slide

to the level of other 

Unsavory words

And people will begin

Saying, "Blog YOU!"

~Do Not Attempt~

'Do Not Attempt'

You cannot change

What's set in stone

So don't you even try.

You'll chip away

And just make noise

Until you'll want to cry.

For people like to stay the same

(and play their game)

and say,

"It's not my fault, Don't blame me,

It's just my DNA"!

~The Storm~

'The Storm'

In the distance

The storm growled 

And prowled

Like a band of angry lions.

They approached slowly

Marking their territory

With flashes that lit up the sky.

They seemed to be getting 

More and more aggravated 

As they came closer.

The moisture shooting 

Out of their angry mouths

Caused rain and hail to pelt

everything in their wake.

Now they were boldly moving

I could hear them next to my house.

I hid under the covers, shaking.

With final loud rumbles flashes and  cracks, 

That clawed at my roof

They seemed somewhat appeased

And moved South...

I felt lucky to be alive.

~No Goodbyes"

'No Goodbyes'

There shall be 

no goodbyes

For they are like 

A death of sorts...

When you know 

You shan't return

Let the memories remain

As they are...

Suspended in time

The gate left slightly open

Allowing spiders to spin

The web of closure
