Weekend

I am using a new Google feature called Google Docs. It has the possibilities of being awesome!

We had another great weekend. Friday I took off half the day from work and came home to hang out with MSH. We ran a few errands and then got home just in the nick of time before it started pouring outside. We pickled four jars of okra. I am looking forward to seeing how they come out in a few weeks. Once I was finally awake from my naps on Saturday, I got the stuff together to fry some fish. Then the power went out, so I fried the fish on the stove and in almost a dark kitchen! Our power was out for about 4 or 5 hours. MSH started up his generator and we had a fan moving some air around while I was cooking.

I did not sleep well Friday night, so I took a few naps on Saturday and then I did not sleep on Saturday night, so I slept in and also took a nap on Sunday. Last night I slept good from about midnight to 4am. I am grateful for that. That's the longest stretch I have slept in a long time. I feel better today because of the sleep. This virus is just about to get me down. My body has never hurt like it has these past few months. It's impossible to explain how bad it is, plus I get tired of trying to explain it.

I love the TV show Jon and Kate Plus 8. I could watch the episodes over and over...oh wait, I do watch them over and over. On occasion I have looked on the Internet at some different message boards or blogs and have seen some negative comments about J and K. I realize that sometimes they do not talk to each other in the most loving manner. I think that happens in the time of stress. I can't really comment on that because I have never had eight children to care for. I can comment on the mean things that people say about them. I think that people who make mean, negative, rude or hateful comments about someone who they don't even know suffer from low self esteem and have personality deficiencies. It's easier for them to make negative remarks about someone else than it is for them to look inside of themselves and try to figure why they are so screwed up and so unhappy. It must make them feel better about themselves...why else would they keep on and on and on? Sometimes I want to comment on those message boards and tell them to get a life. Try getting out in the world and helping others in a positive way. It just might make them feel better about themselves. But then again there are those who thrive on negative situations and love to keep tryiny to stir up the pot. Anyway the bottom line is...I still love to watch Jon and Kate. The new season starts June 30...I can't wait!
