Just another typical Weekend....

So I went up to Caseville last Monday for a few days. I spent most of Tuesday cutting the grass, weedwhacking and edging. The ladies Eagles meeting was Tuesday night so I went to it and after the meeting we all go into the lounge and drink beer...haha.

Wednesday it rained some but I made it to bingo but didn't win the $3000 jackpot. Some rich real estate lady won it which bummed everybody out. I was hoping that if I didn't win it, or my neighbor didn't win it, then someone who really needed the money would win. Oh well....

Thursday I drove home.

Friday night hubby and I went over to our neighbor's for a few beers....and a few more until the wee hours. He has a nice covered patio in his backyard.

Last night I met up with my friend. Originally we were going to go to Greenfield Village but changed our minds and decided to try this new place that opened near her house and had dinner and drinks and talked for a few hours. Well, I had dinner and she had a beer. I wasn't in the mood for beer last night....too much the night before I guess...LOL

The kitties are still hanging around....well, two of the kittens and the mama cat. We don't know what happened to the cute little kitty. After we got back from our week in Caseville we never saw her again...just the mama and the two little tabbies. It's amazing how the two kitties look so much like the two cats we use to have years ago. They died at ages 18 and 19. The one kitty looks like Tiffany Sue and the other looks like Ashley Court so I call them Sue and Court just like I did with our other cats. But they are still wild and won't let us touch them. My husband tried to pick one up and she scratched the hell out of his arm. They will come out for their dishes of food when he is standing there, but if I try to stand there with them, they run under the house and just peek out at me. The one little kitten seems a little more braver and he is trying to let him/her touch him....he gets near enough to put his fingers out to touch but then he/she backs away and when he stands back up, she comes back to the dish. At least she doesn't run under the house when he gets near her. Maybe slowly we can get them a little tame so I can find a home for them eventually.

I know, I know....they ALREADY HAVE A HOME!!....Well, I mean a DIFFERENT home!

Hubby had me buy sardines and he's been mixing sardines with their dry food and they are just loving it....they are never going to go away I'm afraid...

Tuesday I have a doctor's appointment and my doctor better change my blood pressure pills cause these new ones he put me on in January are not suiting me at all....I keep getting alot of swelling in my feet and ankles and even into my calves now if I sit too long. When I got back from driving from Caseville my legs were so swollen I even took pictures to show him. So I stop the pills for a few days and no swelling. I even sat at the restaurant last night for over 3 hours and no swelling. But I had to take a pill today because my BP was 158/98...then later it went down to 128/85 after the pill. I want to go back on the one I had before cause I had no swelling with those. These new pills he put me on are a different dosage and a generic brand so they are cheaper. Forget cheaper....I'll pay the extra money....cause I don't think that swelling in the ankles and legs is a good thing.

And I have to tell him that I stopped taking my cholestrol pill last March because it was causing me to have muscle pain...he won't be too happy to hear that...so I'm hoping that my cholestrol blood check is okay. I've cut out eggs big time in my diet.

Watched Big Brother tonight and Undercover Boss and Mad Men....a decent TV night for a change. Tomorrow is the finale of The Bachelorette! Who will Ali choose?????
