Holy Chit Chatman

never understood people that rake leaves. unless using them for mulch. some people just dump them over the hillside, such a waste.. my yard looks like crap now cause drought and bad blade chewed it up ..

the driveway might give you some nice drainage.

 

I get light headed and, aside from (and compounding) my mental issues with getting my veins poked, if they take too much I've had everything go dark - I stayed upright, but it was like the most dysphoric version of what happens when you stand up too fast.

They know about me, and always make me sit for a while, if they take much I always have water and compresses and such pushed on me.

It's not even a fear of it, really - it's just a medical procedure, I rationally know it's no biggie - it's the sensation and whole different kind of vulnerability of having stuff in a very important part of your circulatory system that a lot of blood flows through. I could literally have my finger amputated with a cleaver, and not feel this kind of vulnerability or invasion - I could even deal with a slash would that cut a vein - but having a needle slowly poked in and held there is different.

 

Good morning :sunny:

 

When my daughter was learning to draw blood she had a nightmare experience with the person she was partnered up with to practice drawing blood on each other.(in school) the girl left the needle in my daughters arm and then when it was ripped from her arm in the other girls panic blood started to shoot from her arm....the other girl was crying soo then my daughter started crying..the teacher had to stop them both from panicking...soo then my daughter started to laugh and had the biggest bruise on her arm ...
She tells the story way funnier than I do.....but she never partnered with that girl again after that lol

 

Blood draws are no biggie for me. I'm a blood donor.


I also use my leaves. I put my little garden to sleep with them and use them to keep down mud where the dogs play. When it gets dry out there it's the weirdest dirt. It's pulverized leaves and not really mud.

 

so. many. apples. so many. and the tree isnt even naked yet. my hand hurts from peeling, going to be putting the boy to work when he gets home from school.

im making apple butter right now, and apple juice.

 

needles dont bother me at all

blood used to but now i dont care...if i cut myself real bad i like to open up and see the inner workings


i dont rake except for in places the mower wont fit i might rake them into a better spot where i can hit them with the mower

 

fixing brake line today and of course as soon as i touch the fuel lines they both start spewing gas out so now i have to fix those too


wish i could afford new things once in a while instead of always dealing with this rotten bullshit

 

i wish I could eat apples more, but they spike my sugar and make me crash.

 

apples are too acidic for my tastes

 

my lime tree blooms a few times a year and right now it is loaded....
i pick about five limes off a day cuz i dont feel like picking them all off at once

 

well the fuel lines didnt get fixed...but i got that rear brake done...and then i fixed the front main line that popped while i was bleeding the rear one.....and then i fixed the short left front one that popped when it got moved when i was changing the main one




tomorrow i tackle the fuel lines...its old style low pressure fuel injection so it will probably get the lazy hose repair instead of lines...im tired of making double flares

 

The joys of living where they spread salt of the roads during the winter....

 

i rake leaves onto drive way and we just run them over tell the snow falls then the snow plow pushes the snow and leaves right of the cliff.

 

has anyone seen the ghost/spirit white wolf?

if you have you probably only seen it once.

not sure if I posted the story when I saw it... but its been on my mind this afternoon. 2 of my close friends know it, many others don't.

 

worse than salt they recently started using some kind of liquid brine that rots metal faster but is safer for the lakes

 

I have huge veins so finding blood in me is no problem. I try to donate when I can but last time I saw a truck they turned me away. I was so confused because I thought blood was always in short supply.

 

Calcium Chloride... Once it starts eating away it can't be stopped.

 

sounds like a cancer.
