1. My favorite kind of cookie is Chewy Peanut Butter made with crunchy peanut butter.

2. Cathy Bates would play me in a movie about my life.

3. Love is  mine for the last  51 years.                        .

4. For Valentine's Day,  I will take Mr BC to the Dialysis Clinic to meet with his ladies, and I will prep for my cataract surgery on Wednesday.  I have eye drops 3x a day and a protein snack at bedtime, then fast.  Maybe we can go to lunch, the doctor appointment is at 11:00am.  I found a way to celebrate.   

                           .

Well, I went to my new doctor Monday, our previous one retired.  This one is young enough that she won't be retiring any time soon. But moving on....could be a thing. She is the one Mr BC picked, and I liked her so....... she is the one...for both of us. She seems so caring. She has a better chair side manner than the last one, and we can talk.

Sitting here watching the news, though...I usually mute it when the talking heads come on, with their opinions.  I decided I wasn't going to watch it, because stress.......I will just let the courts and congress work it out.....and concentrate on George and Amal's twins.😏

Mr BC is better, and feeling like he might feel like doing things soon. Spoke to my DD1 last Sunday, they were heading to Legoland for.....OMG.....their birthdays!  Last week was so busy with Mr BC getting out of the hospital, I totally let the 3rd and 4th go by without a thought of my daughter's and grandsons birthdays. What an awful grandma I am!  Thank goodness, I sent some book gifts with DD2, the week before. I need to get on Amazon and check out some stuff. 😓

Wicked Friendly Fill-Ins and Friday 5

Heading back to the Hospital, I will be back to comment on everyone's posts

1. I have seen Wicked on Broadway a Broadway hit! It was in LA with a Broadway road cast.  Wonderful, though not as dark as the new TV show Emerald City.

 

2. My Chinese zodiac sign is the fire pig.  I looked it up and couldn't really figure what it meant, very little of it seemed positive. It was all very confusing. This picture is more positive. I would say it is somewhat true, it is better that the reading I saw that I could be a con!

3. Celebrities opinions are a little overrated and I don't think they are any more important than mine. They are entitled them like anyone else, and shouldn't be thought to be any worse or better than anyone else.

I wish we at least had this choice!

4. A big sloppy kiss a day is inevitable from my dogs, and sometimes from my husband.

1. When did you last make what could be described as a wriggling motion? Dancing in the kitchen. 

2. What never fails to give you the willies? Being on the edge of a high spot, bridges, cliffs, and tall buildings.

3.What’s something you’ve seen on TV or in a movie that made you squirm? We are streaming Penny Dreadful season 3 and the last episode we watched was very close to blood erotica, I couldn't watch it. 

4.What’s something in your life that could be described as serpentine? Mr BC's health.  It is always something. He had Prostate surgery yesterday, and last night he was back in surgery, so they could break up clots. Seems to be better this morning.  He told them not to call me so I could sleep.  I don't drive well in the dark.

5.Where can you get a really great shake? Culvers or Braums.

Week 35: January 6, 2017

1. I have seen Willie Nelson play in concert. I had bought the tickets, as a surprise for Mr BC,several months ahead of time. Mr BC was still in the hospital when the date came around, so he wanted me and DD2 to go instead.  It was a very good show.

 
2. I would like to attend either an Andrea Bocelli or a Rolling Stones concert. I have very eclectic tastes. With Bocelli, I would want to sit close.  The Rolling Stone I could rock out just fine in the back!

 
3. In the dead of Winter, I wish I could hibernate until Spring. Not fond of Winter or Summer in MO. I just got back from the store and we are set for the next several days.  Let the hibernation begin.
                                 .

4. The main ringer on my cell phone is Old Telephone. I sends me back to my youth.

Week 27: November 11, 2016

1. Cursive handwriting should be taught in schools. I know that many schools do not have this as part of curriculum any more. It will probably become a lost art.

 
2. The last item I donated: was a box of clothes and small household items to Goodwill. I always have a box or bag of items ready to go.  I am trying to divest this house of all the miscellaneous and duplicate items of my MIL and mine.  We inherited her house and contents and there are a lot of things that need to be  cleared out that we just put in boxes in storage.

3. My (personal) song is: Devil With a Blue Dress, because it is Mr BC's song for me when we were dating.

4. Three things I am thankful for this week are: Took the dogs to the vet this week and Gwennie's heart was strong and was taken off of Lasix, she is still on a diet, Totum got some allergy medicine for his intense scratching,  and the weather is beautiful, although we could use a freeze so the grass would stop growing.

Today is Veteran's day, where we remember and honor America's Veterans.  I want to specially honor my veteran.....Mr Bankerchick.

 

If you don't care for political conversations I suggest you don't read on. I usually don't talk politics but this election has been particularly problematic and maybe not so Friendly. 

My Friday Fragments pieces will be mainly about what every one is talking about....and not necessarily a fragment. It would be incorrect to say I was happy with the election results. Not because I was crazy for Hillary so much, but because I don't like Trump at all, and I am deeply disappointed and worried for the country.

DD1 and DD2 are of the same mind and were Hillary fans, acknowledging the same feelings I had with her opposition, and DD1 shared a lengthy text with all of us when DD2 asked about the boys. And the discussion she had with the 7 year old.  I have excerpted a bit of it since she had taken the oldest with her to vote on Tuesday, so he was aware of who his mom was voting for.  I think she had a great discussion with him, even though she was having a hard time Tuesday nite.

 

"Caшa,is pretty blissfully oblivious at this age, but  Лука, has been talking about the election the past few months since the US political process is a classroom discussion item. I explained to Лука,  that a big reason I don't support Trump is that he represents the polar opposite of everything I'm trying so hard to teach them about being a decent and good-hearted human beings. Лука, was disappointed when I told him that it looked like the man I have described as a bully will probably win, but I pulled myself together and let him know that this country has enjoyed good presidents and survived bad ones, and we can be grateful that the sun will come up in the morning and we'll get through this like we do any other challenge."
 
I sincerely hope that she is right, and the boys, (and the rest of us) will not be impacted negatively, by his administration. The news indicates that all is not well out there already.
