~Wrong Numbers~ :-(

Ive had this new phone number for over a
year now, would you believe I still get calls
for other people? I'm on that Do Not Call
list, but obviously doesn't do any good! I
got 2 calls this morning, BEFORE 8 am.. one
for some Steve something, the other for
Eddie something.. I get so irate when I get
these calls.. specially if I forget to keep my
cordless phone with me and I have to make
a mad dash to get to it when it rings.. THEN
when its not even for me? I get so mad.. And
I have to say I do get rather rude.. well they
need to have updated lists...

These collectors get these lists from companies
and I bet 75% of them are wrong numbers..
Then they have it where the phone automatically
dials the numbers and its press 1 if its them, press
2 if they need time to get the person.. and 3 if
its a wrong number ! I don't need to tell you what
number I press do I? :-) Waking up to those kinds
of calls automatically put me in a bad mood. I know
everyone needs their jobs but well to just dial at
random they should check first..


I kept getting calls from this census crap their doing.
I told them don't count me. I bet those people called
me 3 or 4 times already.. I'm glad with this new phone
bundle I have caller id.. so I can see whos calling now..
Well if I'm not in my bedroom .. I don't have caller ID
on that phone.. Its sposta.. and I plugged it in.. but it
doesn't show and I have NO idea why.. :-) I read the
directions and every thing.. just doesn't work.. :-(

I saw the black and white kittie this morning and I am
so glad Penny put a dish of food out there for him..
that poor cat ate half of what was out there.. He was
hungry.. Poor thing.. Penny says "that cat will drive the
birds off".. but it wont.. Ive seen them all out there
and when the birds or squirrley see one of the cats
out there they don't stick around.. I hate to see a
hungry animal.. or people for that matter.. I hope the
other tiger kittie comes by and he sees the food.. he
looks so bad.. I really feel sorry for him...

Penny made it today and shes gone to the store to
stock up for the rest of the week just in case.. We
are under the gun.. this time the weather man says
WE are gonna get 6 to 12 inches of snow.. starting
late tonite.. So.. just to be safe, and in case Penny
cant get here Wednesday I have what I need and
so do the boys.. We have been really lucky this
winter I think.. we've not gotten what they have
all around us .. and out east.. bad bad bad.. DC,
they say has just shut down from all the snow..
So if we do get some from this storm we cant
complain.. But THIS time of year is when we DO
get the most snow.. not in Dec when you would
think it would be worse.. Winter isnt over by
any means.. :-)

I know what is over tho... and that's this post..
I have stuff I want to do today.. I might sew
and then again I might not.. I watched the
super bowl and sadly the Colts lost.. they
played a great first half.. and the 2nd half I
guess they spent all their energy in the first,
when the saints came out after the half they
just stomped the daylights otta the Colts.. I
am kinda glad the Saints won tho... they've not
won a Super Bowl ever I think.. and every team
needs a turn to be the Champions.. :-)


With that 2 cents, this GORGEOUS WEEBLE
is signing off and gonna go help make some
porcupine meatballs today.. I havent had them
in ages and they are SO good.. and very easy
to make too.. So.. color me gone for today..
But.. remember.. I shall return!!! :-)


Always, Lois ****

God Bless You, is my prayer today,
I'm so honored to call you "friend".
I pray the Lord will keep you safe,
Until I write again...

    Hi, Honey,
    Have you got plenty of warm blankets and stuff, just in case there is a power outage when that snow comes in?
    I worry for you - you can't be lighting oil heaters and such and, as far as I know you are all-electric.
    Take care, Honey. Keep warm!
    Luv Ya,
    Raife

    Hello Lois

    We missed the snow, it was to warm here so we got rain...and so very glad too...was hoping to stay in all day and that didn't happen...
    Lots of recipe for hawaiian sweet bread...going to try a few...the one with pineapple juice sound real good to me.
    Hoping to stay in the rest of the day...
    God bless you Lois.

    Penny's porcupine meatballs sound delicious ... almost as inviting as road kill racon goulash ... Enjoy the snow. Me. I've had enough. The novelty has worn off. Happy days.
