Welcome back!

I’ve got it. Do you?

Wonderful title isn’t it? Of all of the things that i could write about, I chose dandruff. Little flakes of skin that get in the way, show on your shoulder and other places.

Of course then there is the wonderful eczema, which is more than just dry skin. If I thought that I could put hand lotion on my head to get rid of the dandruff, I would. Unfortunately that would give me the appearance of a wet head. It might smell nice, but it would be a pain to wash out and my hair would be plastered to my head. At least I wouldn’t have to worry about having split ends…would I? Not sure.

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.

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.

We have heard the old phrase - life goes on. It is so true.

We have bills that have come in, neighbors that visit, people who call. All sort os things happen. Solo Slim stopped by and wanted to talk.

Gossip is something that happens all of the time, unfortunately. After hearing some complaints, I finally got his to move on to the next person he wanted to talk to. At least most of our neighbors do not do this to us, but I have heard of others who get visits and learn about the goings on here.

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.

Well, the thunder and lightning in our area had some fun. We didn’t have any fun.

It started out with just some of the apartments inour area losing their electric. Then when the power company showed up, they had to cut all of the power to all of the units in order to safely correct the outage.

Well, evidently the lightning zapped the wires and the transformer box had to be reconnected. It was 5 AM when they were finally able to get things going again. Since I have severe sleep apnea, I CANNOT go to sleep without my breathing machines. 2 of them. So, just as I was thinking about going to bed - NOPE#&*_#@$%_)&.

The next day I was so tired that I slept most of the day to make up the difference. I once fell asleep without the machines. I was in the hospital, they had me hooked up to heart moniters. The next thing that I knew, I hear CODE BLUE with my room number. One of the nurses was talking to me trying to get me to wake up. When I did, she told me that I had scared them and please do not go to sleep without the machines.

That was eye opening. Evidently my heart stopped. So, power out = no sleep. Humph

I’ve been thinking.

Tomorrow I will be 56 years old. Whoopee…well, I never thought that I would live this long. In fact, I never thought about it much at all. Isn’t it amazing how time can sneak up on you?

Since I had just talked about apartments and mobile homes, I thought that I would give another option to think about.

What I am talking about here is outer banks vacation rentals. That would get you out of your neighborhood (unless you live there). Then you would only have to worry about temporary neighbors. Of course if you live in a college town like I do, some of your neighbors turn out to be temporary any way. Then there are the neighbors who are connected to the military. They sometimes have to get up and go on very short notice. What do you think?

There is another movie out. Another disaster, only this time supposedly the whole world will end.

Of course that means that life insurance would not necessarily be a bonus. However, who knows, if the world does not end and you do not survive, your family would benefit.

I often wonder where people get all of these idea about things ending. I sometimes think that they might be writing down their nightmares and then the nightmares become new movies. What do you think?

I’m still around. Kind of like a pimple on the tip of your nose that seems to glow red.

Yup, that kind of obvious. Now I know that there are acne treatment for pimples, but I do not think there are those things for (AHEM) opinionated-fat-broads. That is how I can describe myself.

I also have a very relaxed way of dressing. I mean that as long as no one runs away screaming, I’m cool with it. I have also always thought that if no one screams, and I do not get arrested, it is a good day. Haute couture is obviously not my style.
