I was listening to some 'oldies' music a few days back, when the 'Righteous Brothers' came on. Boy did I Love to here them sing, still do. You know the song where they say "You never close your eyes anymore when I kiss your lips" (having a senior moment, can't remember the name). That leads me to believe the best way to kiss is with eyes closed, right. Anyway there's a country song that asks, when we kiss "Don't Close Your Eyes". So I got to wondering about it. Should you close your eyes or not? Which way enhances' the pleasure of a kiss more. Since I have absolutely no one to test this kissing dilemma on I thought I would ask all of you. How do you kiss? While we're at it, and so I won't have to post for the answer, where do you put your hands/arms etc,etc....Do you prefer to kiss standing up or sitting down? What is the preferred position? Take me serious now,cause if and when the time ever comes again I want to do some serious kissing. Gotta do it right.
Truth is I've ALWAYS closed my eyes. Even when I give a peck on the cheek to a friend, or my Grandchildren. I have tried eyes open,and its just not the same for me. I would like to hear thoughts from others as to why and how it works for them...Hope you will reply....Kisses to all' !?"//??''....Whoops....had my eyes closed.... Todays My B-Day...Barbara

Memorable Christmas Gifts

After reading Dramamomma's post 'Bah-Humbug', I decided to post again today.(I'm trying to hold it down to no more than two).
Everyone has been posting about their most memorable Christmas & Christmas traditions.
I think it would be fun,and funny to post some of our most memorable GIFTS. I'll go first.
I think when y'all read this you will understand better why I got a Divorce. I'm not going to try and remember what year,just how they come to mind.
1. Gas powered weed eater.
2. Broach 3" long shaped like a ? (question mark).( His sister picked that out)
3. A commercial size meat saw.
4. A pink sweat suit 3 sizes to large.(his sister again)
5. A Miter saw.
6. A skill saw.
7. A Chain Saw.
8. A dremel tool, with a Chain saw sharpener attachment.
9. A dining room table,with 8 chairs. I loved this one...Picked it out myself.
10. Two pregnant Sows. (They actually came before the meat saw).
11. A set of tires for my car.(could use that again this year. wouldn't complain this time...LO
12. A semi truck load of rock to spread on our road/driveway.
Don't get me wrong, I got good use out of most of these things, because we lived In a very rural area.
13-14...He bought me two Necklace-Earring sets while we were married. One was a 14K gold Cameo set. The other 14K gold with Ruby's and a Diamond in center. I still have the Cameo, but I gave the Ruby/Diamond to my oldest Granddaughter when she turned 13. It was for a child, and to short for me. He became angry when I didn't wear it and said he would never buy me anything again, and he didn't.
Every year after that I just bought myself something, wrapped it, put it under the tree and was so "SURPRISED"....Rotfl.....Heck there's a lot worse things than Gifts to worry about.
I'm looking forward to hearing about everyone else's Gift getting/giving....Later...Barbara

How to delete A Post...

I found this out by accident. So if any of you out there don't already know, you can delete a post. I did mine before it was approved, so I'm not sure about afterwards. What happened was I posted the same one twice, just as some of you have done. The way I knew was I went directly to my blogs just to see how it looked in print. There it was Twice. So I clicked on 'Hide Post' bottom left corner. Following the prompts, it let me permanently delete one copy. No more multiple posts YEAH!!!! Isn't that neat.....LOL
P.S. You can also edit the post if you find your gramar wasn't up to par at 3 am.......
Later Barbara

Boy, Do I have a job for him

Today was suppose to be a day off from work for me. My co-worker called me asking if I would cover for her again. So I did. Then the girl that is in charge of cleaning asked if I would clean up after I closed up. So I did. When I got home about 10:30 I checked out all the new blogs,read my e-mails, and wrote a couple of replies. Ate the rest of my lunch, so I could take my Med's with food as directed. Seems this has become my routine. I went to bed about 11:45, and woke up somewhere around 2 or 2:15. A thought came to me as I was lying there trying to get back to sleep. So here I am, Blogging away at 3 in the morning.
This is what I'm thinking. I quite often see men standing on street corners holding signs that say "Will Work For Food". I don't know if y'all have them where you live or not. Florida being a warmer climate seems to attract more homeless, because there is less chance they will freeze to death. All I would have to do is ride around (Especially the Tampa Area),check out a few. Maybe stop and do an 'Interview' of sorts. Check out their work-ability see what kind of FOOD they like, ask about health problems,etc,etc,etc. Then make my choice. Now I'm not talking about doing this to find myself a 'Mate'. NoNoNoNo...The man said he would work for food, and Boy do I have a job for him. All he has to do is 'SLEEP' with me. Just crawl into the bed in that same spot where now I have that stack of pillows. A nice hot bath, a big old country dinner,(there goes my problem with left-overs)and he should be ready to do the job he was hired for, Sleep. All I want him to do is lie there and let me snuggle up to his back, put my arm around him. Maybe throw my leg over his now and then. He could even snuggle up to my back, and rub his foot up and down my leg, breathe into my hair. Heck that would probably get him a 'Big ole Chocolate Cake', homemade even. Point is maybe I could get a good nights sleep, and he would be well fed. Now the problems arise. Do I toss him back next morning an pick-up another for the next night, or just keep him on (the job) until he starts asking for a promotion or raise or something. Well I'd rather not go through the interviews any more than I have to, so I guess I would keep him on as a 'Temp'. Never let him reach full time employee status. That means he could only work about 7 hours a night 5 nights a week. I would be paying him on top of the table, as opposed to 'Paying him under the table'. Would that mean that I don't have to take out all those nasty taxes? Pay matching SS? I would Hate that. How would I figure his wages, by how much he eats? I don't want to think about that. The point is,he will work for food, and I need help with my lack of sleep. These are my thoughts. Anyone got a better suggestion,or thoughts to add to mine?
I know most of you have been on your own long enough to sorta get used to sleeping alone. But I haven't, and whats more important for me is "I don't want to". I talk to people all the time that have 'adapted' to their new lifestyle. They say things like "It's not so bad", "You get used to it", Bull-S@%$. I don't want to get used to being alone. I'm a nurturer,and a giver,by nature. I've done it to long to stop now.
You would think there would be a guy out there somewhere that would 'Like' to have the job. I've read the profiles of many many men right here in SFF. Most of them say they are 'looking', but when you try to talk to them they run, like rabbits. No one seems willing to come out of their 'Comfort Zone' and take a chance.
Later....Barbara

Whats for Breakfast?

After picking up my meds last night around midnight,I felt it was to late to start taking them. So I got up this morning about 6 o'clock to start them early, only to discover they have to be taken with food. I start looking for Something I could eat at that early morning hour. Hummm, burritos, no thats the only thing I ate all day yesterday. Bacon, no, its been there TO long,eggs to for that matter. Pancakes, no, I have to have sausage with pancakes. Now I have lots of food in the cabinet, soups,tuna,veggies,even some sardines,& vienna sausage.(Well a girl gets a little crazy once in awhile)....Except for the Sardines & vienna sausage, everything else is just to much food for me at one time. And I hate wasting food. I buy milk and have to pour half of it out, the same with a loaf of bread. I haven't yet figured out how to shop for just one. How to cook for just one either, so I don't cook. I'm so sick of sandwich's. HELP!!!
I heard an older man say once that a Woman could throw more out the back door with a spoon, than a man could throw in the front with a shovel. Granted that was in the good old days when the man made the living and the woman stayed home. (June Cleaver Days). Where I lived, even tho it was in a neighborhood, all the table scraps were taken out the back door for disposal. Either to cats & dogs, or put into a bucket to be picked up as garbage. No Garbage disposals. This mans analogy stuck with me from then on. I've tried to conserve and not be wasteful. I do buy the smallest packages of things, but always end up throwing something out. A Happy day is when I finish a loaf of bread before it turns green. On the other hand, I don't like to eat the same thing over and over. I've not been alone that long,so I was wondering if some of you could give me some tips on how to get around this problem.
I'm looking forward to hearing how all of you manage on you own......Barbara

Hot Feeling in Breast's

When I got out of the shower this morning I was toweling my hair dry, when I noticed in the mirror that something Strange was going on with my body. My Boobs were talking to each other. The right one said to the left one "If we don't get some support soon, people are gonna think we are nuts".
Back before my Divorce one morning at breakfast I was just leaning on my elbows sipping my coffee, looking across the table at my husband. Suddenly a strange long ago feeling came upon me. I said to him, "I'm not sure why, but I have this hot feeling in my breasts this morning. I think I might be falling in Love with you again". He looked over at me and said "You'll get over it. Just take your Boobs out of your oatmeal".
I went to lunch with some friends last week, and we were talking about things to do to surprise your man. A & C,are only in their 30's,D & I are in our 60's. All of them have someone. I'm the only loner. You'd think they would fix me up wouldn't you? Anyway, they had some interesting things to say. One I told them about was something either 'Phylis Diller', or 'Joan Rivers' said she did. She got one of those 'self help' books on how to keep romance alive. The book said to get undressed, wrap yourself in plastic wrap. She did that, and layed down on the dining table and waited for her hubby to come in. He took one look at her and said "Left-overs Again"?
Enough about the trials and tribulations of my life...Hope everyone has a nice day....Barbara

Crazy Day & Sticky Candy

It's been a crazy day. Everyone knows how SFF was messed up. Guess we'll never know how many Posts and replies never got through. By the time I was able to sit down and get online there were some new posts. Michael96,txlittleone,merri99,lothringia,ladynads,popartist46,Gets,Mallow,DanDee1952,dlw & cabriole, I enjoyed all your posts, even though my comments didn't show up in most cases.
I had a bad day all the way around. Guess I should have stayed in bed. First thing on my agenda was to go confront the hairdresser that gave me this fuzzy perm. I did that, she admitted it was her fault for changing perms without consulting with me about it. So that is settled. I'll get a redo when I'm ready for it. Doesn't change the fact that I have to deal with this one till it grows out. My coworker called me crying, asking me to work her shift today, because she had just left husband #4, and had to find a place for her and her 2 babies to live. I had to tell her 'no' because I had a doctors appointment. I felt bad not helping her. But I've been battling a problem for awhile now. It seems I have contracted a staf infection. Staphylocous Aureus Bacteria, forms Boils deep in the hair follicles. My last round of antibiotics didn't completely get rid of them. I had to see the Doctor about that problem, as well as another. Now I have 'Shingles' its on my right arm, upper part. The worse being in the bend of my elbow. For those of you who don't know what shingles are, maybe I can explain. If you have ever had 'Chicken Pox' you have that virus in your system. Most of the time it is dormant. It can flair up anywhere on your body, but most of the time it chooses your back. It's like a case of chicken pox concentrated into one small area. It hurts, it itches, it blisters & it looks horrible. My whole arm hurts. I feel like saying, "Hey God did you get distracted by something and mistake me for Job"? I feel like a Plague has been visited upon me. I got to wondering if I had done something to anger Him. Well let me see, there is/was that little white lace shorty negligee, with the bikini panties,and all those cute little pearls and ribbons on it. But God you know I said at the time it was "Just for me". Something to make me look and feel nice once in awhile. Was there just a fleeting thought that it might come in handy at some other time? Dratts. I took that thing back to the store and got my money back, I'm not taking any chances.
After two hours of waiting for my prescriptions, they still weren't ready so I came home. It was almost four o'clock and I hadn't eaten all day. I decided to do a few things I'd been putting off. One in particular involved some 'Super Glue'. I put the glue on, and laid the tube down. I keep forgetting those darn tubes leak if you don't replace the top right away. I passed by the pumpkin with the left over Halloween candy, so I decided I'd better eat some before it went bad. To my dismay I realized the humidity here if Florida had already started to get to it. My fingers got sticky opening it up. I then went back to clean up my super glue mess. Gosh Darn I still had some of that sticky candy on my fingertips. So I stick my fingers in my mouth to suck and chew it off. But it wasn't candy. It was super glue. Yes I have super glue on my tongue, my front tooth, and my bottom lip. Please, if you've had a worse day than me, tell me about it, so I can feel better about my plight........Later Barbara
P.S. I Still don't have my prescriptions......

I'm not going to debate with you about anything. Not about Rules of war, the Geneva convention, pow's,wooden boxes,patriotism,nothing. Because you just don't seem to get-it. I don't need you to 'school' me on how American citizens should act. I don't need nor do I want you to post anything specifically to me again. I don't need you to send me copies of any documents, or news items that you feel I should read. I don't need you to call me a racist, even though by your definition I am. You say that you are a "citizen of the world", if thats true why don't you find a country that will let you get up on your soap box and shout your views to the whole of that country? ......10 to 1 the USA would be the only one that would allow you........I've said piece....I'm done....
