Self Portrait



While digging through some old papers upstairs I found JD's self portrait to his mom from High School.

Just got back from town. A G D SLOB tried to welch on a deal and I told him to his face to "F" OFF. Martin told him the price.. I drive in to help load the stuff... luckily I DON'T LOAD ANYTHING without the Benjamins in my hand.... He drove off without the appliances. NO SALE but he can go to Sanford & Son and see what he gets.

That's a well done portrait. I could never draw anything but stick people. You need to find a frame for that one.

Baby pictures. Those are choice mementoes. When I was a baby there weren't that many cameras around, so I don't recall ever seeing any baby pics of myself. Hope the vet is able to do something for Ruby to keep her going a while longer. She is such a loving part of your family of MUTTs.

It was a nice sunny Sunday, but the temp only reached a high of 15F after a foggy morning low of -13F. I did take the dog for a short walk and then took her home and gave her some food and water. Her master was still in bed at 2 pm. When I came home, I chased the vacuum sucker around the shack and wet mopped the lino floors. While the floors were drying, I had a sit-nap in the other room. Mac and cheese for supper with the last of the cake for dessert. No snow to shovel today, thank goodness.

I don't blame you for telling the welcher to f-off. It must have pissed you of to drive all the way into town only to run into someone like that. There will be other buyers who really need the appliances and are willing to pay for them.

I don't know where Koffla went. I don't pay any attention to his blogettes.

I have a fair price on good stuff... If I am not certain off it I tell them... Not into it to ch3eat anyone. I have several that have come back or told others. IF I can get another apartment then I will have more...as I renovate.

We store the used appliances in a garage at one complex. He just thought we'd be stupid enough to load them before he paid.... I will let everyone know how the Vet & Dr turns out tomorrow.

I wish JD would still do his pen & ink watercolors. He is just so busy with other things. He needs to take a "Time Out" and have some Martha Stewart stuff to do.
