Tunes & A Thank You

I have lots going on right now (and have had)...Today I was busy making curtains and was really enjoying this playlist while doing so.  I thought a few times I should post that song....

When I took a break I checked email, and received a few asking about why I have not been posting.....Just busy...priorities...

BUT....this is a GREAT playlist....check it out...I dare you...to tell me what you think of it!  
; P  


Thanks to those of you who dropped me a line to say hello and check on me...you know who you are...I appreciate your thoughtfulness!

Felix The Cat~~ Uncle Bill

I have said before that my Dad was in the Army and we lived in Yokohama Japan when I was in middle school, 6th-8th grades.  I used to go off base and buy pencil cases, pencils, erasers...they smelled like candy...I would buy candy and gum and other silly things a girl would buy.  At the time the exchange was 300-320 yen to the dollar...so you can imagine, I got to buy a lot of stuff!  In comparison, today's rate of exchange is 104.8 yen to 1.00 dollar.   

That was the first place I saw that you could buy cigarettes out of a machine on a street corner, the same with beer.  It was pretty odd...cool, but odd.  Once I thought I would run away...LMAO....got lost...I ran around asking where the BASE was and kept getting directed to the BATH HOUSES....no kidding....But honestly, the people were the nicest, most respectful I had ever met.  

I always have had a thing for shoes....and well, don't let this get around, but Mom never feared me falling over because I have always had big feet...LOL...and yes, firmly planted on the ground, but when I would go into a shoe store to buy shoes in Japan, the ladies, and the men would all be amazed and call over the other clerks to see my beautiful large feet! 
; P

Anyway, back to Felix the Cat.....my favorite gum....I ALWAYS had it on me, or I would run off base and get it before school would begin...it was Felix the Cat bubble gum....you see it blew the BEST bubbles...I LOVED that stuff!  Well a couple years ago I thought about it, and looked it up online and found I could order some from Jersey but it would cost me like 65.00 for a box of it...Well, this chick will never pay that kind of money for bubble gum....I mean, I could buy a cool pair of shoes or music instead yeah?  Ok, so the long way around a short story is, my cousin was on FB showing some candy her uncle sent her from Japan, (he goes there a lot on business, I think) and I commented, and told her about my Felix the Cat infatuation, and my love of the smell of the erasers......LOL....she is my favorite cousins daughter....Remember the post when I took a walk through the woods at my cousins ...ok, she is the one...WELL, her Uncle Bill saw my comments on FB and told her he would send me some gum....can you believe that?   How kind....I said nawww....don't worry about it, don't spend the money it cost to mail it....but yesterday, I received .....



A box of Felix the Cat Bubble Gum, and then some, and Erasers!



ありがとうございました Uncle Bill! 



You Rock Dude, your kindness brought wonderful memories and huge smiles, as well as Big BUBBLES to my world!

Soulshine X 2



Steve, thank you for this selection...Perfection!
; )

Good Morning!~~Who Can It Be Now???





I was surfing the web and low and behold....I found this....It is amazingly familiar..the face that is.....she looks EXACTLY like Holly Kerodin....Scammy's wife....yes, you know....the one we actually laid eyes on in court....She is a little heavier in the picture, than she was in court..so I guess she diets also, either that or I guess death will do that to ya!  

Wow though, I have to say, she looks great for her age....68?? And that was in 2013 (Scammy must like older women) Nothing wrong with that...I guess that would make her what 70-71 now?   Damn...you go girl!  

Calgon, take her away...PLEASE!....or the FBI, it matters not!  Take Scammy too!  I would hate to break up a happy home!

Now, I have been quiet, and nice, and even made my blog private...and yet you persist....you are like ants at a picnic....but less fun.  Please, I am asking you nicely,  go away.  Don't make me go any further with this....it won't be pretty.

Vietnam Veterans Are Being Denied Benefits



Like many Vietnam Veterans, I am struggling with renal cell carcinoma, a type of kidney cancer. This is the result of exposure to Agent Orange.
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) offers disability and additional benefits when people who were exposed to Agent Orange get sick with anything that is on their list of presumptive diseases -- diseases they acknowledge are caused by Agent Orange. Despite a VA study showing a link between renal cell carcinoma and Agent Orange, my cancer is not on the list, and I was denied the financial help I need.

Click on the link above for the rest of the information and to sign this petition. Thank you!
