I just came home from a week in Ohio. What a good time I had. I met some very special people. I think people come into our lives for a reason. I stayed with Doug's family for the most part, I met his who entire family. I learned about growing up in Ohio.  I learned how other people live. I went up to Amish country. The shop's were pretty neat. The people were very nice. There were amish and mennonites living in the village. I learned about their history, and how God works in their life. I also toured the cemetery, the city of Columbus ( pretty cool ) the hood, the white national socialist hood, which I did not know that stuff was still around. I went up to Clevland.. and down to Kentucky.

I will post more later.

I made a old skool fave today. Hot roastbeef sandwhich. When I was a kid, my Mom made hot sandwhich's all the time. Turkey, Ham, Roastbeef, Chicken, whatever. Today I had it on sourdough bread, with a spoonful of mayo, and some cheese. It was a fablous smell of hot mayo and hot roastbeef. MMMMMM!

Enjoy your meal.

HOT

I have been dreading this day for 13 years. My nephew Jayce, is now taller then me. :)

I have been sick sence April. I have had bronchitis, ear infections, nasal infections, pretty much EVERYTHING has to do with your sinus's. Mind, you its all on my right side....  I went to the walk in clinic on sunday. They were open at 9am, so I made sure I was the first person in line.. I had some x-ray's done of my lungs.. CLEAR. GREAT!  My right ear infection from thursday was getting worse. My right nasal lining was inflammed. AWSOME!  I also was dealing with my asthma in full swing. Not fun. Okay, so the doctor gives me  a treatment, and some prednisone to shrink my bronch tubes, and some azithromycin for my infection. All along I have been telling her that my snot is green, my phlem is green, but they coulnt figure it out. ... Amazing!

While I was waiting to pick up my meds I saw this thing called neilmed sunus rinse thing, I put it back and wanted to read up on it before I bought it. So, I left and went to church.

My friend told me ya know what might work? He said Oh, I use this sinus rinse thing, and it feels weird but it works.  He took me to Fred Meyers and bought it for me. I get home and use it and all kinds of green junk is coming out. Today I put down a paper towel in the sink and watched and its gross, but I like gross things, and LET ME TELL YOU,  I saw it pouring out of my nose. I must of had a cup full on the paper towel.

What you do is fill the water bottle up, pour in the sinus rinse mix, squeeze, and yes, it come outta your nose, and mouth, which you must spit out, cause the taste isnt really that good. Oh, you must lean over a sink, it makes a little mess. I love this thing. Everyone should use this!! You can use it daily, even if your not sick. I breathe some really nasty things at work...

Oh my weakness. I have a few. The worst one... Strawberry Frap from starbucks. Im fasting EVERYTHING  from Starbucks.

"Summer treats aren’t just for licking, raising your summer calorie count is even easier when you use a straw. While this adorable pink Summer offering from Starbucks contains no caffeine buzz, it does pack a giant jolt of calories and fat. When sized as a vente it packs a not so bathing suit friendly 750 calories and an abs of steel crushing 15 grams of fat."

Today I went to wal*mart. I always go and pick up what I need, today was the friday of memorial day weekend, what was I thinking? Anyways, I got my things and stood in line. The lady infront of me was about to have her baby any minute now, and she picked out a cute outfit.

She choose loose pants, a teeshirt, earing and purse to match. She really went all out. Then comes the white sweatshirt. The item that does not have a tag. The line is 5 people back. The lady behind me is getting mad- She's gotta get back to the farm. I'm just reading people magizine, keeping to myself, but really watching what this grumpy lady Tina was going to do. She told the customer that she coulnt give her the sweatshirt for 9 dollars, after the customer told her? WTHeck? Isnt the customer right anymore? So, she pages some lady overhead, and way to loud-- to come up, 10 minutes later still no price. I tell the rude cashier, hey I think Sam Walton can give up 9 bucks. She however, did not think it was funny.

The SAD part is the customer told the cashier to return everything she bought, AND SHE DID.  I coulnt belive my eyes. THE CUSTOMER WAS SO UPSET.  All over a 9 dollar sweatshirt!! So, the customer left. Then its my turn. I bought some food, and I kid you not, she was throwing it in my bags. I asked her to not throw my stuff, and she gave me the worst look ever. I should of just left, but I needed the TP. Okay, so I paid and left. I didnt even say thanks, or anything, as I was walking out-- the front end cashier manager was there, and I talked with her. I guess, she was going to handle it right then and there. OKAY FINE. PURE RUDENESS..

So, as I was walking out to my car, the lady infront of me was loading her things into her new, totally cute 2008 Honda... and I told her that I complained to the manager, she thanked me and asked, was it me, did I do something wrong? I told her no, it was the cashier Tina. She thanked me, and we said God Bless...

Just for you Tina, Go eat some lard.
