Good Morning, Everyone

Got an early start this morning.. so thought Id jot down a few thoughts.

As many of you know, we bought an RV, 1984 Chevy Cutaway, champion model.  It needs work, but we decided to sell it, when we ran across another RV 1994 Damon Challenger, which is ready to go and didnt need work done on it first, before we could use it.. But the bank turned us down for a second mortgage, which I dont understand that, when I should have good,,,scratch that,,, GREAT credit, as no late fees or anything in nearly 10 yrs. 140k+ house, owe less than 95k, and only wanted 12-14k.. and they wouldnt give it to me,, dont know the reasoning yet, but I suspect, its because of Nana, even though I only was going to use myself.

Seems Nana has been bad, with her Kohls and Sam's club cards.. at least one of our employees has been.. guess Nana gave her a check and asked her to pay her bill for her, and she used the receipt on the bill, and ran up more stuff.. maxed the card out. at kohls,, and I seen the sams club card, and guess she did the same thing there.. and its maxed out,, and Im coming unglued about it.. I want them both paid off NOW.. and she dont want to tell her husband about it... and for some reason,, i feel Nana is holding something out on me about it.. How can one person, spend 1500 dollars at sams club, on groceries or whatever, in a couple 3 visits without Nana seeing what was going on??? Nana said she didnt look at the bill, just gave it to her to go pay, until I seen the bill... Im fucking pissed.

Started power spraying the deck yesterday... looking good, for no longer than I did it yesterday.. will take a few days anyways to get it done.. then let it dry out in the hot summer sun, fix a few boards, then get some stain and get that out of the way..

Having a problem with the new neighbors next to me and behind me,, and then off the lake neighbor (hubby of the employee who stole money on our charges) The off the lake neighbor, Paul, has a boat parked at the neighbor behind me, Jason's, dock.. and it interferes with me turning my boat around, to go out on the lake,,, my pontoon, is rudder controlled, not turn the motor and the boat turns,, and Jason, and my other neighbor, Dan, both have new 20 ft pontoons.. and there is just enough room for my 14 ft to get through.. but thats okay, I CAN get through,, its the off the lake neighbor, Paul's boat, that is fucking everything up.. he can park around the corner at his landlords (yeah, he is a renter) Jason tells me one thing, and I asked Paul when he was going to move it, and he doesnt think he has to.. well, now I have the Homeowners assoc involved, and theyre suppose to be here monday or tuesday to try and settle this... In my mind, theres nothing to settle,, move the fucking boat..
Im sitting here at 8am and letting this fucking shit upset me again,, well, it isnt just that,, its Paul and his wife that stole from us on the credit cards, that is pissing me the fuck off.  I swear, Im going to take off soon, and be gone for about 10 days while shit gets settled down,, if not, someone is gonna get hurt,, and I dont fist fight anymore.. lol

I may get the RV tanked up, and just load me some grub onboard and hit the road to a campground for a couple weeks.

enough of this,,, Im sitting here getting upset over nothing, so will end this, cause Im going to stay upset writing about it.
Have a great weekend everyone, and Happy Farming

Happy Birthday, Buddy..

Today is my brother's (Buddy) birthday. He died in November, of 1997 at the young age of 36. so he would have hit 50 today. Wow,, so hard to believe that.. especially when the memory of him is as a mop headed young man. Buddy had a hard life, made harder with the loss of his children, and health issues.. We love and Miss you, Buddy.

Well, I havent written for a while, dealing with my own health issues the last week or so.. about 4 days ago, I started running a fever late at night, getting up to 101.. fine during the day, and felt fine all the time, til yesterday, then felt pretty puny, and that is lingering today.. Dr appt in an hour, will see how that pans out.

Ive been anemic, and have had to do injections of iron, for two weeks, and in 6 weeks or so, go back for more bloodwork to see if that helped. if not, then theyll do a bone marrow biopsy, to determine why my bone marrow isnt producing iron/blood the way it is suppose to.. it all comes from the bleeding I had the first week of the year, when they had to give me 14 units of blood.. according to my bloodwork, I am malnourished.. at 240lbs, malnourished,. lol

Been going over and working on the RV off and on, trying to take care of a few things, but, now we have spotted another RV for sell,, a 1994 Damon Challenger, with 28,000 miles and is in pretty damn good shape, and everything works.  soooo,, we shook hands on it, and I am now looking to get a loan for it. Hopefully, will hear from them soon on the loan application,, trying to do second mortgage on it with the equity in the house. figure that is the best option.. Gas prices these days, wont be helping with the going places in it, but should be able to go to a couple places a month, with a tank,, and a tank running about 120 a fillup. Near as I can figure..
And may have the other one sold already, the guy offered what I gave for it, but Ive put some into it, and will leave that stuff in.. Nana wanted her pillows and rugs back, but said shed leave the curtains,, lol,, taking all that back, and other than paying the taxes and plates on it, Im still gonna lose a couple hundred on the total.. but will be shed of that rv. but will have something we can trust and is ready to travel now, if we have the money to go.. which shouldnt be a problem neither.. if I get things straightened out here shortly.. which too, shouldnt be a problem..

Really excited about going camping soon,, which, to me doesnt matter if it is in RV or just tent camping, though Nana would be more comfortable in an RV.. me, I just want to get away from everything,, and if She doesnt want to go, I may just go on my own someplace close by for a few days.. take the computer, camera, and cell phone, and im good to go..

Nana is faring well, after her knee replacement.. its been two weeks now,, therapist is here now helping her with her exercises.. but she is walking with a cane now, and will for a couple weeks yet.. at least.. sees the dr tomorrow.. and see how she is doing with that.. they will want her to go to therapy (off home therapy) but she wont do that, like I wont,, we just feel like, its a waste.. My cardiac rehab, may have been good, at least it had me exercising. but theyre trying to get me to do things that I wont do when rehab is over, cept for the walking,, Im over running, lol,, and bicycling is okay, but I wont do it at the rate they want me to do it.. oh well,,

Well, the news is all about the killing of Osama bin Laden (when did they change it to Usama??_)  good riddance.. now bring on the rest of em.. chicken shit bastards.. living the lives of Mohammed,,, lying, stealing, child molesting, etc.. whatever it takes to get over the infidels, I guess.. how could this develop into a religion?  jeesh  bombing them back into the stone age, is impossible, since they already live that life, and they want everyone else to be in the same shape as they are.. hope their 72 virgins are catholic Nuns waiting on them,, or maybe its mistranslated, and it should read 72 Virginians,, like George Washington, Robt E Lee, James Monroe, Thomas Jefferson, etc etc etc etc............................................

Guess I will end this,, time to run to dr
Happy Farming
