  • He's Sick And Tired Of Being Sick And Tired.....


    TALES FROM THE BRAT FARM

    ...and, frankly, I would prefer he either gets worse or better myself.   Right now I am freezing my buns off....in my own house, no less.  I am in my computer room with the baseboard heater on and would think about putting on the little space heater except I wouldn't want to take the chance it will blow the circuit.    I have a lot of stuff on in this room.  So, I have a warm robe wrapped around my legs since there is a bit of a cool breeze hitting it from the vent and my short, warm robe on.  It's 26 degrees outside and windy.  To me, that spells *hibernate*....LOL but I have to drive Sheepie to the bus station in Huntsville tomorrow morning for the trip up to her mother's house.  I know the shit is gonna hit the fan over this but the Beast feels it should be done.  That means the Beast is going to have to watch Chewlee in the morning until I get back but she's fairly easy in the early part of the day.   Just give her some juice or chocolate milk and turn on Sponge Bob and she's happy.  Especially if she gets Papa's chair and TV (it's the big screen HDTV).  What's not to like? 

    Me?  I'll be cold, even in the car.  I'll probably dig out my gloves in the morning so I can keep the arthritis from flaring on me and making me more miserable.  It also means I need to get to bed early tonight because I have to get up at 6am so I can get Sheepie up and ready for us to leave by 7am at the latest.  I need to go through a drive-thru somewhere to grab us something to eat since there's nothing close to the bus station where we could grab something once we get her ticket picked up.  Actually, it's more for her.  At that time of the morning, all *I* want is some HOT coffee and lots of it. 

    I have no idea what the kids are doing tonight.   At first Sheepie and the Princess talked about going bowling but then there was some discussion about whether or not that would fly with the guys, then Sheepie admitted she wasn't really crazy about bowling.  So, they might just be playing cards at the Princess's as an end result and giving each other a hard time about stuff they did as kids.  There's no telling how long before we get to see Sheepie again.  Especially if her *father* manages to find his way to our house around the next big holiday and waits in ambush.  This guy is a real piece of work.  He kidnapped her once; why would he stop at a second time?  Especially IF, heaven forbid, Sheepie and Buttmunch were both happy?  That would eat him down to the bone!

    Well, my mind is half frozen and my nose is running so I will cut this missive short for now.  Love you all and, remember, stay warm, dry and happy....wherever you are.
