How Rude!

It wasn't that long ago that I read an article that American's were becoming ruder. It was scary to read this article because it was true. Everything that they mentioned in the article was terribly and embarrassingly enough true.
I have already vented about how people don't care about each other, There are no smiles in the aisles at the store, no neighbors that care enough to say "Hi, how are you?", no one bothers to RSVP for parties but they still show, etc. I could go on but I don't want to bytch all night. Well...perhaps a little bytching won't kill me : )
Today, I got another taste of why this article was written. I was at King Sooper looking for some cupcakes for my son's upcoming birthday, when this old fart just darted out in front of my basket nearly hitting me. I stopped, stunned at the fact that I was blindsided by a senior sack of s#*t and watched him just keep walking without a care in the world. I loudly said "You're excused!" to see if he even would turn around and say sorry. He didn't say anything, he turned his head just enough to see me through the side of his eyes and looked at me like I was bothering him.
You jerk!
I have been noticing awful changes in people's attitude. Courtesy has gone out the door. Why? Is it too much to say "Thank you", "You're welcome", "Excuse Me" or even apologize for jetting out in front of someone nearly hitting them.
This is 2012 perhaps the human race does need a reset.

Until next time...be nice to one another.

Isn't this over yet?!

Sometimes I just want to scream! It feels like the last 2 and half years have just taken a crap on me and my family and there seems no end in sight.  Oh let's recap shall we... 2016 was my son's first open heart surgery followed by a plethora of doctor's appointments and other surgeries. I thought it was over by the end of the year and took the advice of Whitney Houston and friends when I exhaled. However, my fun filled days were not over yet and I found myself dumbfounded by the turn of events in my life.  2017 started out fine...well not really. January brought us the bad news that our black Lab Molly Mae had cancer. It was in her bones and basically there was nothing to do but love her.  So, that's what we did. We took her home and loved her. Then, in April we were informed that my son needed to have another open heart surgery because the tissue valve that they put in was not performing the way that they thought that it would and now needed ...

3 day nail check in

It had been three days since I have removed my nails and coated them with Sally Hansen's Hard as Wraps nail covering. Now the directions say to take off the polish after three days and restart the process all over again with two (2) new coats. When they say that you need to remove the polish after three days and start over, they mean it. Here is what happens on the third day, prompting you to remove the polish. My nails with the initial tear on the polish. The polish starts to lift and tear off. It started with a small uplift on the side of my nails and I pulled off the rest. Surprisingly, the whole thing came off without having to use nail polish remover.The problem with that, though, is that my nails underneath are still very thin and weak.  In this picture the nail is bent. It's a little hard to see it but I am bending my nail. The weak condition of my nails has continued and I see no real change to them . The next picture is of  the top of my nail, showing the te...

Peter O'Toole

RIP Mr. O'Toole.  I loved his work not to mention that he was an all time hottie back in the day. As he got older his wonderful acting ability came through. Although it was not an award wining movie, one of my favorite movies was High Spirits where he co starred with Daryl Hannah and Steve Guttenberg. I also liked the movie Creator where he co-starred with Mariel Hemingway, Vincent Spano and Virginia Madsen. Peter was capable of so many ranges of acting and the world will miss his talent. Until next time...
