Monday, May 2, 2011-Felt Better

My back felt much better today. My hands hurt though. So weird that my bones are hurting in all different places now. But at least I can still get out of bed each morning.
My sister, Jeanne, stopped over yesterday. We had a nice visit. She said she had to take detours to get to work last week during all that flooding. She has to drive up to Barneveld a few days a week. And her daughter, Jessica, had to take a different road to get to work also. She is a teacher at the West Canada Valley School. The Middleville bridge was closed also for a couple days. Thank heavens things are getting back to normal. Just hope the rain we get tomorrow doesn't hurt that progress.
I went over to Walmart tonight at 7 pm tonight. Ran into my sister, Debby. She's working 12 hour shifts lately at the Remington Arms. She hates it but it's a job.
My brother, Rich, is through with college and has earned his Bachelor's degree!! I am so proud of him. I think he's going to have a party at his place soon. I can't wait to go. I couldn't make it last year when he had a picnic. It's beautiful there. Back in the woods and near a waterfalls.
My brother, Steve, is back to drinking too much again. Both he and my nephew got drunk last weekend and fell off their bikes. Steve can't drive so he always rides a bike. Guess my nephew must have brought his bike with him when he spent the night at Steve's. Steve is going to kill himself the way he's going. He never learns. Every time he gets back to drinking he gets in trouble. Nothing anyone can do about it. He's 60 years old for cripes sake.
I've been telling you about my mother squirrel and how she's moved her babies into that third nest somewhere out of my sight. Well today I spotted her up at the original first nest and she was busy getting branches and repairing it. So I'm not sure if she has moved the babies again or not. I will be watching her tomorrow.
Did I mention that some guys were cutting down trees in the back woods on Saturday? That really made me mad. Three trees fell. I'm sure there were some little critters that got killed. The squirrels were crying and the birds were having a fit that day. The birds are laying their eggs now.
I saw a picture on Facebook today that looked familiar of woods. It was from Greg Overracker that lives over on Henry, the street behind us. He was complaining about the trees being cut also. He says it's Bruce Ward and his cronies. So someone must be going to build a home there. At least now I can find out more if this Greg keeps an eye on it. He's not happy at all about it.
It wasn't a bad day anyway. Was cloudy all day and we had a few sprinkles. In fact it just started to sprinkle when I went to the store. It's going to rain harder all day tomorrow. Only in the 40's and 50's so hopefully it won't be too humid this time.
That's all for now. Got to get to bed. My turtle is in my bedroom tonight. He won't stay in the tub because of all that noise coming from the next apartment. It's driving me and him crazy. The vibration is terrible. I told the girl in the office but she won't do anything. She said she was going to ask that lady's nurse if there is a vibrating chair in there. I told her it might just need to be moved a bit or have a rubber mat put under it. Sure hope someone gets that solved or I might have to move.
Goodnight.
