Stupid pill bugs...

Ok, first the aggravation of the day... Pill bugs!! The little annoying creatures seem to have taken up residence in my kitchen, more specifically my kitchen floor. I have no qualms with the bugs if they are outside, but when they insist on living in my house... it's war! I have stepped on numerous amounts of these bugs and still they keep coming. You'd think that they would see their fallen comrades and think, "Maybe we should think about moving." Ugh! Oh well, maybe they just don't have brains big enough to think that. I know that the ones I've stepped on haven't got the guts to do anything anymore! :~)

Well, now that that's out of the way...

Pretty simple week, Tues. I went with the older ladies and took flowers and food baskets to visitors of our church. I really enjoy doing this... When Miss Frances brought me home I asked her and Miss Sally (the other lady I went with) in to see the old singer sewing machine. They thought it looked more like an older model that had been converted into electric. Hmm... I went online to see about this and it might just be possible. They also got a big kick out of seeing the 1933 Lane Bryant catalog I have that was my grandmother's.

Wednesday after Church, Jamey, Jason and I went to see about apartments. It was too late to actually go in and view them, but we got to see what kind of neighborhood they were in. So far out of the few good ones that Jamey found there was only one that looked worthy of a second look. The reason we are looking for apartments is because the rent on the one we're living in now went up. It wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't just Jamey's income paying it. As it is now I can't get a job yet... no transportation. This new apartment is alot cheaper than the one we have now and it looks a little nicer too. Well, we'll have to see what happens with it.

Thursday was Bible class. Alex, one of the men that goes to class, is Greek Orthodox. He visited Sunday and stayed for dinner. I greeted him and introduced Jamey to him. He is from Greece and knows five languages. Anyway, since he visited we went and gave him flowers and a basket Tues. His son took them cause Alex wasn't home and got our names. He said Thurs. that when he got home, his son told him some ladies stopped and gave him flowers. He was slightly confused until the son mentioned names and he recognized my name as being one of the ladies from Thurs. class! Wow, am I that memorable? Maybe it's just my name is kinda rare. I'd like to think it was that I'm quite unforgettable! :~) He's a sweet man and has been talking to George after class, so maybe he will start coming regularly on Sunday!

After class I asked Miss Frances if she wouldn't mind stopping at Kroger. It's on the way back to my house anyway. I had to get some pantry items that were getting low, so she took me. That was soooo much fun going shopping kinda by myself. I had $10 in my purse so I had to just get the things on my list. Well, I followed the list up until I saw blueberries on sale. Now, I hate and loath the blue nasties however, Jamey loves them so I thought I'd pick them up and surprise him. I also got ingredients for a homemade potpie that I thought I'd make for supper that night. Jamey informed me when I got home that he had a doctors appointment at 4 pm, so I decided to scrap that idea for supper. I'll make it tonight! :~P

If you're terminally ill, you could die in the waiting room before the doctor sees you. It took an hour for the doctor to see Jamey. His appointment was for 4 and we didn't see the doctor till 5. It didn't help that this time in the room there was a VERY annoying man with his bratty child. Oh, that was fun spending almost an hour listening to them go at it! Someone give me knock out drugs so I don't have to sit here and listen to this! All we needed was a refill on the prescription and it took an hour and a half. Since it was 5:30 and we were both hungry, so we went and got fastfood. Yummy... Church's Chicken has corn nuggets, the best thing on the planet!

The weather outside is dark, damp and thundery. A lovely Memphis afternoon. Hey, I had to do something to keep my mind off the thunderstorm outside.

I have seen the cat that has been living in the shed three days in a row now. That cat must have an aversion to milk, because I put milk out for it and it didn't even look at it! Oh well, if it doesn't want my help... we might be moving soon anyway.

Well, that's my week so far. Jamey and I are going to go to the Superman festival tomorrow. That will be fun, we haven't done anything just the two of us for a while. :~)
