Well wouldn't ya know it, the weather is terrible for a holiday. I waked up this morn'n and said...."what the hell". The wind was blow'n a gale, foggy, rain and it's cold outside (51 degs). Even Sadie Mae had doubts as to if she was gonna go out to pee or not. Simple....kick her out the door. Now she's back in bed at 9:45am.
Old Barney come by to see me last night. I rekon he was as bored as I was. Nephew Joseph and his girlfriend/fiance Rena also come by and we all went out to eat up some Mexican food. Was a very pleasant visit all around.
Arrangements were made with Joseph to move "Sally da house" over to "el Rancho Abraham" in Sinton, Tx come monday. While there, we gonna go car shopp'n in Corpus Christi and see if'n I can find a replacement for "that jeep". Something a little lighter and more trustworthy. Also need to go get me some new eye peepers from the eye glasses place. Been see'n double images for the last year, so I rekon it's bout time. It's hell driv'n down the road and see two great big ol' trucks com'n at ya. One passes and you have no idea where the other one went.
Now what does a retired, travel'n, homeless person do for the holidays? Being alone with only an old dog for company and companionship, I ain't gonna be a do'n nuttin. Made up that big pot of beef stew soup yesterday for the occasion, so that's it. Eat soup and lay on my butt over there on the couch an' watch'n what ever on TV. Excit'n huh???
You are not alone, you've got Sadie Mae. She'll help you eat that stew. lolol. Make some cornbread to go with it..yummm. Besides, i'm gonna be dropping in on here.
ReplyDeleteI know the feeling. Christmas and Thanksgiving have often been just another day to me.
ReplyDeleteHope you and Sadie Mae have a nice relaxing Merry Christmas.
ReplyDeleteIf it helps any the weather is lousy all over Texas.
ReplyDeleteWe are not having anything special either.
Merry christmas to you, Sadie Mae and all of your blog readers.
When you talk to Old Blue Eyes please tell him I wish him a merry christmas as well as a happy new year's.
ReplyDeleteIf I lived nearer to you, the feast would be on, turkey and ham, all the fixins in the fridge ready to go..we got a nice toaster oven, new microwave and plenty of plates and food to cover it..we both work late tonight and tomorrow we rest and eat and go to a movie late at night, we sometimes have people who have no place to go or food to join us, they seem to enjoy theirselves, to me the holidays are all thru the year with massive hunger in the county we live, unemployment and many lost their homes to boot, it rains and is cloudy and cold about 300 plus days of the year, so far this december is dry but cold as the dickens..Happy Hanukkah to you Merriest of Christmases to you and a pat on the head to your doggie, be grateful you have someplace to call home, heat and some food to, many don't have that at all..just saying...luv your blog!
ReplyDeleteI think I will come down tomorrow and give you something to do.
