EVERYBODY GETS THE BLUES

Another blue day!  Oh, well.....................at least it's another day.  Everyone I know seems to be down in the dumps, so to speak, the past couple of days.  Full Moon tonight.  Maybe that's it.  But the full moon usually brings on my creative and productive phase.????????????  HMMMMMMMMMMMMM.

Well, Roommate is visiting with her daughter this evening, and my main bud is off at meetings, appts., etc., so it's just me and the 'puter for now.  I've checked my fan fave sites, and no new posts.  Don't guess anyone is doing anything new right now.

I watched the CMA awards last night, and was really disappointed.  Hello.................COUNTRY Music Awards............so where was the COUNTRY in all that?  I've never even heard of most of what was on, and I didn't hear ANYTHING that even vaguely sounded like country.  In fact, most of it didn't even sound like MUSIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Yes, there were lots of very talented people on there, including a couple of my favorites  But it just didn't sound like country.  Too contemporary.  Too loud.  Too raucus.  Too METALIC.  Too rock.  All that is fine for those who like it, and I am sure there are millions who do.  There's room for all kinds of music, and people have a right to listen to what they like.  Just don't inflict it on me and try to tell me it is something it is NOT!!     To my ears, it was not music, it was NOISE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Okay, I know opinions are like asses, everyone has one.  Well, that is mine, and I'm entitled to it, so there!!!!!!!!

There's nothing on TV worth watching, no one to talk to, and nothing to do.  So I guess I'll do what I always do when I'm bored silly......................EAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm Over IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, so far I have spent over three hours typing the same post twice, and even did several saves and a copy, and it STILL didn't post!!!!!!!!!!  I guess a nice, positive, "warm fuzzy" post just can't make it to my blog!!! I don't know whether to be bummed out or pissed off. I think the latter won.

I am NOT going to spend another 2 hours on the same entry, but just to remind myself, I have been traveling back in time, mentally, to some of the very few HAPPY times I can remember from my childhood.  Two occasions really stand out and have been strongly on my mind lately.  Both happened before I was 6.  One was the time my mother spent the afternoon playing with me in my "playhouse" under the back porch.  The other was when my grandmother brought all her cooking things outside to scour them with sand in my sandbox that my granddad had built for me.  I didn't know until years later what she was doing...........I thought we were just playing in the sand.  I've also had a lot of trips back to my very early teens, and our summer visits to the grandparents in the mountains.  They lived WAY behind the times, even for that time.  It was always a great adventure for me to get to learn and do things "the old way".  I wrote some pretty nice accounts of those times, AND LOST THEM!!!!!!!!!!!  Well, maybe I can rewrite one account at the time,really get it all down, and actually get it posted!!!!  Odd, I NEVER have trouble posting the negative bitching, moaning and gripeing ones!  Oh, well.  That's life, I guess.  I have come to the conclusion that all these "flashbacks" are just MOTHER telling me that SHE is there and looking after me, even when I don't know what SHE is doing, or understand what SHE is trying to tell me.

Love and Bright Blessings,

PISSED OFF !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just got a new computer.  Got all my old info (I hope!) loaded yesterday, and thought all was well.  Today I look at my blog, and everything is screwed up.  My background is gone, my color is gone, the type is different, and Xanga is informing me that I should like the new format better. I DO NOT!!!!!!!!!!  I want my page back like it was!  I don't want electric blue letters screaming in inch high letters from a black background!!!!!!!!!  I am beginning to think a new computer was a REALLY BAD  idea.  So far it has been more aggravation than anything else.  I thought XP was supposed to be easier??????????

Oh, well.
