I'm a Winner!!!!!!!

I thought it was a scam at first, even reported it to the police who didn't really seem all that interested. But I kept checking all the possibilities and had called the wrong hardware store. The owner had given the phone number of the wrong hardware store here in town. I called them and they said there was nothing going like that at all. After further investigation, I found out the owner owned both hardware stores plus lots of other businesses so he was confused. I really was put on alert when he said meet him at the bank he had papers for me to sign. The police said he would have gotten me there then told me he need twenty bucks to process the paper work. So, I did finaly call the other hardware. They told me indeed I had won and come into the hardware store. The manager met me, more excited than I was because I still was in denial because I just don't go around winning things. He showed me the slip of paper that I had put my name and phone number on and dropped into the box. He said my name was drawn out of thousands of names by a customer who they had do the drawing. When I waw that little piece of paper with my signature and phone number I remembered filling it out and dropping it into the slot in the box. Here it is: I WON $1,000.00 in merchandise at the hardware store. Guess what I did next, I went out and bought a lottery ticket. That was fruitles, LOL. So I got to pick out that much merchandise from their fall catalog.

Have Suitcase will Travel.....Again, LOL

I am today moving off the mountain, there is no connection with the outside world there, no phone reception, no internet connection. There was a company measuring to place a tower on top of the mountain so that could be a year or so from now. The mountain is solid rocks with a little dirt settled on top. That will be very difficult to put a tower in those rocks, but I'm sure those big companies have access to the equipment to do just that. I am moving into a mobile home in a Mobile Home Park. Across the street from McDonalds. I am in walking distance of town and all the fast food restaurants (food row) grocery stores and restaurants and stores.

Hi, I missed you all....

I am living on the side of a mountain now and it gets really cold here at night. all week it has been below freezing but, during the day when the sun comes out you start peeling your coats, jackets and sweaters. Then you can be outside during the day and wear short sleeved shirts along with your jeans and take in the glorious Arizona sunshine. I have learned a few things; can you believe I had more to learn LOL? I learned that it is easier to fasten the buttons on my cuffs with my left hand even though I am right handed. Now pay attention to these things as they are very important to life. For those of you who do not have the luxury of a dishwasher (and you probably won't if you are living on the side of a mountain without running water or electricity} the answer is coffee filters. Yes coffee filters! They are earth friendly, and make perfect little cheap saucers. For the number you get in a package, it is a bargain compared to paper plates or napkins. They are the perfect thing for that sliced apple, a doughnut or roll, that handful of nuts, pop tart, cookies, piece of cake, and a sandwich fits on one, cut fresh veggies, etc., etc., and can be used for a coaster under that soda can, or tea cup, or coffee cup. Use them for any type of small dry food. You may now start with your own list and I will get back with you later. Hang in there, I am aiming for at least two times a week on here.

About That weight Thing

Remember I told you I was going to try to get some of the weight off this body I'm in? Well, for me this is a great accomplishment. I have lost 3 inches off my waistline. I don't know how much weight I have lost but I'm still working on it. I will keep you all posted. Someday, I will find a scale and weigh me, then I will get back with you on that.
