update

 I have been babysitting on Wednesdays.. this is my 2nd week and we are still trying to find   our way of doing things.  The 1st day was good, but the next week, today, was not so fun.  she would not take her bottle ( i discovered later in the day that i had forgotten the insert thingy.. they have so many  NEW things now days,  not like 55 years ago!!! HAHA) so later in the day the bottle time went better and she drank it all.  She got tired about 2p so time for a nap, and she would not go to sleep.  i sat in the room with her, she kept opening her eyes and look for me and if i wasn't there she would start crying again... finally, she eventually passed out and stopped crying, geez... AND i got thru a poopy diaper without barfing... HA!!!!

Other than that,   i had been sick with i suppose, the flu, altho i did have a flu shot, probably the wrong flu, who knows. but i was sick for about two weeks, then got another UTI.. have been having a number of DOC appts to figure that out we have had not a it of snow all Winter, here in Redmond., and hopefully they can hit on the right thing so i stop having those... but the flu,,  geez, went on forever... i had full flannel pj's on, a sweater, on a heating pad, with an electric blanket and had the chills so bad.. only at night it seemed.. everything hurt and ached and then was not moving about, so my hip acted up.. then i even got a canker sore on my bottom lip.  i was a mess.... never did go to the doctor. felt too ill to drive in there..

Dear Sade has taken to pooping in the bathroom and i have been trying to be overly diligent to curb this behavior, but it is distressing to say the least.

I had started a quilt, got everything set up in the garage b4 flu hit and it is still all out there.  It is still cold here and it is old out there!!! But we have really had good weather over all, some really Spring like days.. tiny bit of rain here and there, but don't even think it was measurable.  Mt B only has a 42 inch base....  bad, bad, BAD.. can't even begin to think what this summer will be like. it is so very dry out there.. we have had not a bit of snow here in Redmond

Have been very sad at the state of the world and things WE are doing to make things so very much worse..  BUT  it is 6p and still daylight out there.

AND on top of everything my VISA was compromised...  entirely my fault.  and did not have a card for a month!!! the bank   card printer was down!!! and in that month had to transfer all of my  auto pays to my debit... and realized how much was paying out,    if is is auto,   it just gets paid and i guess did not realize... well, my VISA is well  on the way to getting paid off!!! When you make payments, but don't order/charge anything to it, the balance goes down,  DUH!!!! am slowly (hate change) getting used to having it all come out in "real time" and keeping track of it all.  one would think   that is a no brainer.... some of us it takes longer than others to figure things out... don't over think a thing, just  do it....

Well that is my sorry story,  hope all is well with you all, Take Care and God Bless
