Not Bored

Sunday, February 28th, 2010

Welcome back!

Nope, I’m not bored.

I am sleepy. Yea! There is a difference. Bored means that I cannot sleep. Even some fitness equipment wouldn’t help. I would be there exercising, and still want something to do. That is bored.

Sleepy means that even if I cannot find something to do that is interesting, I can always take a nap. Yes, I still believe in naps. Just because I stop being 6 does not mean that the occasional nap does not come in handy. After all, it does help with getting rid of bored.

Do you realize that there is an old Chinese curse that has you point a finger at someone and say - may you live in interesting times? It sounds very innocent.

IT AINT! When you look at the TV and see what is on the news - that is considered interesting. Bored isn’t so bad after all. :)

I’m bored

Friday, February 26th, 2010

I am bored.

Great news isn’t it? Well, I guess that we all get to that point at one time or another. We have an entertainment center with TV, VCR, tapes (yes tapes), DVD’s, and a lot of other stuff on it. I just wish that entertainment centers would also come with their own entertainment.

I really don’t feel like watching a movie. TV does not really suit me right now. Maybe a book to read would be nice. The books that I have in our home, I have already read. I guess that I could go to sleep and join the millions of others in dream land. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz - oops, see ya laters.

Figured it out

Friday, February 26th, 2010

Yes, I figured it out.

What it is…I have no idea. *snicker…snort*

Never mind me today, I feel like being a wise guy…er, gal. :)
I realize that sometimes what I write does not make a whole lot of sense, but that’s life. Because I am the boss over this blog, I can write nonsense, wisdom (if I have any), poetry, practical jokes. Whatever ‘it’ is - auto insurance quotes, information, idiocy, opinions (of which I have a lot), or nothing at all, it is all mine.

OOPS, that means if it is bad I cannot blame anyone else but me. Hmmmmmm, oh well, that’s life. :)

What is that?

Wednesday, February 24th, 2010

I look out my window, and what do I see?
White flakes of snow falling down on the city.
I think of snow plows, scrapers and more.
I think of insurance quotes, and opening the door.
I think of snow angels, snow balls, and slush.
The next thing I know, my husband says shush.
He doesn’t like snow, he just hates the cold.
He wants me to shut up and not open the door.
I want to go sledding, I want to play.
He says wait for tomorrow, don’t go today.
I wait for tomorrow, and open the door.

There ain’t no snow, it melted away. :(

Fat Head

Monday, February 15th, 2010

Have you ever heard this before? Well, of course you have.

I know that there are a lot of people out there that could use home gyms to get rid of their very own personal fat head.

I have met a few of these people. They seem to be so full of them selves that they are unable to think that anyone else has a valuable opinion, or thought. The main trouble with this is that most of the ones who have this condition are politicians. UG

By the way, do you realize that it is getting to be political season again? The political ads are all over the TV, and each commercial is another pain.

She Bit Me !!

Thursday, February 11th, 2010

I believe that I have mentioned before that we have cats.

Well, one has a ‘cattitude’. In other words, she is a cat with attitude.

She has this thing about being ignored. She does not like it. When my husband is getting dressed in our bedroom, she will do various things to get his attention. Well, yesterday she decided that she did not like me ignoring her and she bit me. Right on the rump.

When I hollered about her doing this, my husband broke down laughing and told me that she does it to him all of the time. Amazing how such a little critter can have so many little things that she does. She does make us smile. :)

Egg Rolls

Thursday, February 4th, 2010

I do truly enjoy good egg rolls.

My favorite restaurant, however, uses a type of seasoning that I don’t like. So, I make some of my own egg rolls.

1 head of cabbage shredded finely
2 large cans of boneless chicken / or an equal amount of pork or shrimp that is:cooked, make sure that the meat is shredded for even distribution.
1 large can of oriental vegetables -chop finely also after draining
2 packages of egg roll wraps
soy sauce - lots of it
1 Tbsp of flour made into a loose paste to seal the wrappers

Gently saute the cabbage in a large frying pan, seasoning with soy sauce. When the cabbage is tender, add the vegetables, meat and stir.

Let the mixture cool. Lay out a cooking sheet, plastic mat, or something that will protect the counter from drippings.

On to each uncooked wrap, place approximately 2 tbsp of the mix. (The wrappers usually come with instructions on how to fold into egg rolls.) When it is almost completely rolled, use your finger and smear on some of the flour paste to seal and finish rolling. Place into a nearby pan to await being fried.

Heat a frying pan with oil/shortening until the oil/shortening is hot. There should be enough in the pan to mostly cover the egg roll. Fry each roll until it is golden brown all over. Drain, and serve.

The quantity that I told you about will make about 30 to 40 egg rolls. If you have wrappers left, they can be cut into strips and fried by themselves for chips to munch along with your egg rolls. YUM

Believe it or not, you can also make a mix using different types of cooked, seasoned fruit instead of the cabbage mix to be made into fruit rolls for desert. They can be dusted with powdered sugar for a finishing touch. STILL YUM :)

THIS IS NOT A DIET FOOD.

Yup, that’s my name

Friday, January 15th, 2010

I come by the name of Two Ton Tilly honestly.

I am very well cushioned and I am not blind. Of course you can tell by the name on my blog and what I write that I have a sense of humor, too. I know that some would recommend a diet supplement to add to my daily meals to abbreviate this situation.

Hmmm, I do not know about that. I do like to eat. I have only a few things that I do not like. Anchovies, jalapenos, oysters…to me they are just ew. I have had artichokes. Too much work for what you get. They taste okay, but to much work. Broccoli is cool. Just got some today, and thinking about it for tomorrow. Oh well, tomorrow is another day.

Wednesday, January 13th, 2010

Yup, I mentioned that my husband is getting older …………..

No surprise, I too, am getting older. Maybe that means that I am getting wiser ?? Nah, it just means that i am not afraid to speak my mind now. :)

Rock & Snore

Monday, January 11th, 2010

How’d you like that title? Well, that is what my husband was doing earlier to day. :)

He kept telling me that he was sleepy and tired and was going to go to bed. Okay, he is still recovering from the hospital stay. I kept waiting for him to get up and go, but…….when I looked over at him he was rocking from side to side and snoring as if his head was on the pillow.

Well, laughter did not wake him up and I figured that a quote from carinsurancelist.com wouldn’t wake him up either.

I finally got his attention, he said hunh and all that it did was to make me laugh harder. He finally bumped his way to bed and is now snoring gently and sleeping.
