EMOM'S MOUNTAIN NEWs*Monday

2014*8*11 MONDAY EMOM'S MOUNTAIN NEWS

WELCOME HOME, DEAR HEARTS, WELCOME HOME..Come on, get your buns in here and dry off.  I've had 3.2" of rain here on my Lady Mountain..Windy, and serious downpours!  Now, down to business...

Have I not had a bad year..have I not fought the good fight and come out even or better??? Now, I know I've been distracted, but there's some of mine out there I can't take my eyes off for two minutes before THEY get into trouble!  Firstly, I am talking about my rotten Canadian/Aussie Arthur! Not even two minutes, and he ge gets sick!  I just find out about this a couple of days ago.  Maybe he thinks I'm gonna' be nice since he is under the weather...WRONG!  hE TELL'S ME HE HAS 90% TO GO YET!  I'm telling you, Arthur, you best be getting your 90% in gear and get outta' the bed.

Diane, honey, (Arthur's much better half) if he gives you any trouble, just let me know.  You, Diane, still have some "nice" on my ledger... HE does not!  Tell hime to be forewarned cause his ''nice'' allotment ran out last year!  So there!

Well, sometimes, I feel like I need a keeper...as in zoo!  Been attacked by the herds or ticks again.  This time, I was nailed by a lone star variety.  Does this mean no more hamburgers for me???? Sheesh.. Anyway, I'm taking two pink allergy pills at bedtime and then crash.  So far, so good.  Just trying to fend off another instance of cellulitis... talk about your itching.

Had phone problems today... cannot call out... but others can call me.  Got an email from the Marv (A true friend?) asking who I've offended this time.  Does the brat know me or what?!?  Then had a short power outage because of the storms, I guess. Critters are under my feet... and puddles are standing on the sloping land!  Seems like I am at the right altitude for the storm clouds to be crawling on the ground out there. Anna has tried to correct my attitude about the storms and lightning up here... Not supposed to picket at StormGod Central when I don't like what's going on outside. Sheesh!  can you imagine me stopping when I am on the rampage?  I don't think so!

Now, let me see what else is going on. Oh, my new tv came in!  lolol G'cutter took the old big set out and hooked up the new one!  Came back here to the office and almost fainted... I didn't know a 32" set was/is that big.  That was last Thursday..I'm getting the hang of it now... and I have satellite so I need to use two remotes.  Am I making any sense at all.???

And am I "hot stuff'' or what?  I ordered a pair of inexpensive earrings and they finally arrived.  lolol  Earrings are glittery red hot peppers!!!  lolol

Guess that's it for now.  Take care all of mine;go in safety always. Remember all of you that I only have so much nice to go around!

Many hugs, much love and lots of lafter everyday... meems the TerMOMinator

EMOM'S MOUNTAIN NEWS - THURSDAY 2014*8*7

Welcome home, dear hearts, welcome home!  It's 0630 hrs my time and I've been up a whole hour... I slept most of the night thru!  Maybe I should whisper this, just in case!  lolol

Grab some coffee and... oh yeah, grab some donuts the next time you come out this way... It's been a while since I've had any of thos dangerous hi-cal goodies...

And before I forget, I want to apologize for the attached Fox News article that attached itself to the Mountain News the other day.  I tried to get rid/delete it but it was stubborn... Kinda reminds me of the Marv...Did I just say that????? lolololol

Back to the article...I DID read it and then I read another article on the karst (big blow holes) appearing in the extreme latitudes.  My question... Is NASA developing a thingy to create oxygen out of CO2 on Mars (Experimental) so that the rising CO2 level here on Earth can be assuaged/controlled?  Just wondering....

And, woe is me, I received another 'one of those' envelopes in the mail yesterday.  This one is from the credit card co.'s fraud division.  Wanted info about me and the theft/use of my old number.  lololol  Does IT NEVER STOP?????  The card co is working on the info supplied... the info they requeted was much the same as swearing an affadavit for a court case...  The more I thot about it, the funnier it got... You can question my memory for times/dates/reading abilities but I ain't about to lie to anybody!  (Well, maybe to the Marv) lolol  People who know me here on the mountain say that I am ''outspoken''... would you believe???

Well, I filled out the papers...made the copies to keep...and got it out to the mail box right away.  This is TOO funny... Y'all know I have balance problems, need the 'meem machine' when I go shopping.  Well, going to the Mail Box presents a whole different set of problems.  Walk/stagger the 50 or so feet to box... The mountain critter crew are so thrilled the MOM is in the yard... they start playing tag!  Doggy style.. Lordy pete!  They come galloping toward me at a gazillion mph... Here we go!  MOM! MOM! they bark!  lolol  I've lost my mind!  

Got a call from my case worker at the congressman's office... things are looking good re the alleged overpays.  My cup is runnething over. 

Best quit while I am ahead this a.m.  lolol Take care all of mine and go in safety always.  Remember to help others when you can!

Many hugs, much love and lots and lots of lafter... meems the TerMOMinator

Posted On 08/05/2014 04:22:49

Welcome home, dear hearts, welcome home... or not?  lolol  Get comfy and be prepared for a looooongggggg  session!  Shut up Marv!

I'm a telling you this has been a bummer of a year... (You might want to skip this part... sheesh!)  We all know the problems I've had with SSA...that I almost lost my home... battle went on for a year and hopefully is finally settled...I have a letter stating that I did nothing wrong and I was NOT the problem... (one down)

The well pump went out and did not replace it...installed city water instead because of the costs involved.  The central air went out... $6,000 as a minimum to replace.. set up a window unit in living room and closed off all rooms not being used.  A thief come into home and stole my camera and got my credit card info.  Got call from card company advising they had refused a $594 ticket on Gambia flight!  (trust me I am not making any of this up.)and a high charge to a flower co.  Got this all taken care of...old card cancelled... another issued! 

My big tv went out back here in the bedroom/office.  OMG!  First I have the puter systems crash/get fixed/and now the TV???  Almost a week now with NO TV???  Unearthly punishments!!!   or sumfin  lololol... Well, many years ago I bought a very small portable TV/radio combo.  Finally tonite, I decided to try connecting it to the cable outlet back here.  I DID IT!  I now have a working set back here in the office...  YES!  No remote, but it works and that's all that counts...

Serious bad news... My lil girl pup, Bonnie, has died... She bled out... Broke my heart and my spirit for a while... I've had enuf.  I am now down to 4 bad boys with high energy romps on the bed when I am trying to sleep...  Tap dancing on my full bladder does not work out the best for me and my sleep habits.  However, I am holding steady for the moment.

I DO need to thank some very special people for helping immensely in the past year.  Congressman H Rogers here in KY and his caseworkers.  Especially the ones in his KY office.  The new office manager at SSA, Jackson who also helped me a lot.  My friends and neighbors in the area... Anna, who has always been a bad influence, pulled me thru almost on a daily basis.  Then, lastly but not leastly, the Marv, Bobbi and SherriAnn... I can't wait til I get the bill from the Marv on this one... Sheesh!

Guess that'd better be it for the time being.  Take care and go in safety all of mine.  Remember that no amount of money can buy true friends... take care of them...

Many hugs, much love and lots of laffter... meems the TerMOMinator

2014*7*12 Saturday EMOM'S MOUNTAIN NEWS

Welcome home, dear hearts, welcome home... Get in here and grab some coffee or sumfin.  No feeding donuts or rolls to the ''pitiful'' looking critters who have their paws on your legs and them sad eyes looking at you... They are masters of applying the guilty concious complex... Trust me, I know!

Have I mentioned "I HATE TIX?"  Well, let me tell you I do!  Nature lover that I might be, I really must learn to be more selective in my choices of associates and friends..Now, THERE is an understatement!  Somehow over the past two summers or so I have become the designated adoptor of any and all delinquent ticks here in the mountains! ( I ain't ever gonna go near D.C...that could be life threatening!)  Ticks have been planning this for a while because I feel they are too well organized!  I open the front door - I turn around and there is a tick crawling up my caftan... I sit on the love seat - Here's one on my arm..  Their favorite meeting spot is the back of both knees.  Can you say '' lumpy golf ball in reverse?"  and I don't golf.  I'm not even gonna go into the itches... sheesh!!!

Ants seem to like my cooking... I have an army of lil black ants attacking the kitchen at the moment!

Now, let me remind y'all of what a sweet lil ol' lady I am...in my better moments (would these lovely greens exagerate?) Oh yeah.  Well, I rolled out the other day.. stagger to bathroom (TMI?) take care of stuff there... head for the kitchen.. COFFEE!!!  I get to the split at the end of the hall way... Holy chit!  Now what!?!

I have had an over nite hit/attack by the 'paper towel brigade'!!!  (Have I mentioned I hate dogs????)  lololol  Do y'all have any idea how far a new roll of paper towels will go when shredded???? Don't even ask!  lolol I got so tickled tho... Kinda goes with the territory when you have a house full of young'uns... two legged or four legged ... don't matter which or both...  Let's see now,  I need a bush-hog, a back-hoe and a dozer!  Them's just for starters...

Guess that's it for the moment... Take care all of mine; go in safety always.  Remember that being a ''tree hugger'' type is the best way to but but  IT does have its hazards... lolol

Many hugs and much love... remember to get the giggles once in a while... meems the TerMOMinator

2014*7*12 Friday  EMOM'S MOUNTAIN NEWS

Welcome home, dear hearts, welcome home!  I have laffed to hard today... finally getting back to my rotten self.  This is not an adv for Geico, but I finally got the latest commercial..."... words CAN hurt you!"  Duh Paula...Bite your tongues, Brats!

Wind came thru the other day, I'm not sure which day, but it took another sapling down... Tall thin with a maybe 4" diameter trunk.  Poor thing was growing in a sheltered spot near the house...the top half  (about 10' above ground level) was SPUN off, not splintered like the last tree... I would call Storm God Centra but Anna would yell at me again!  lolololol

A sadness here... Faye Campbell, a good friend, passed the other day.  I would call her and give her a hard time. lolol  I would tell her I wanted her lil Buckeye (a mini Dachsie)  Nope, she would say but she was always more than willing to give me her hubby...lolol  and off we would go...off the deep end...giggling.  I will miss her.

Let me see here... Oh yeah, complaint dept... Ticks!  Have I mentioned I hate ticks.  Dept of learned sumfin new: lolol  Headline stated that seahorses GROWL when they are upset!  Well, so do I!  Do you suppose there is a genetic relationship here?  Just thot I'd ask...

Another bit of info, I learned...The 'smell good' candles that I have been buying for years must have changed their formulas.  What should have lasted a week in the large jars only last, at most, 24 hours.  They also coat everything inside with a coating.  This stuff was, in my opinion, part of the problem with my puters... which I also hate... lololol 

Aren't you glad you started reading this... The News has turned inta a real complaint department!  Oh, another thing... re SSA problems... Have gotten done all I can do for the moment.  Checked with my bank...The cashier's check returning the REAL deliberate overpayment from March this year has cleared the bank... I've gone public with all of it... now all I can do is sit back and wait.  Ya NEVER want to push me into a situation until I have nothing left to lose.  I will come out fighting... Remember that I am 49% _itch according to the questionaire!  lololol 

Take care all of mine; go in safety always... Remember all the remembers that I have reminded y'all of... lolol

Many hugs much love and lots of laffter  meems the TerMOMinator

To all my friends... This may be removed... If so, I understand and will have no hard feelings  I feel this info is extremely important to all retirees!


2014-7-09 Wednesday EMOM'S MOUNTAIN NEWS

Welcome home, dear hearts, welcome home!  Get in here and sit!  I have a HEADS UP!!!!  HEADS UP NOTIFICATION!

I had planned on giving you the 'good' news update about my battles with SOCIAL SECURITY ASSN.  I truly believed that it was taken care of... Then, March 2nd this year I find a huge deposit from SSA in my savings account... This is the second attack in less than a year. First attack involved NO money at my end!  I have the records to prove all of this! Well, with a lot of help from the caseworkers in State Congressional Representative Harold Rogers office.  (Bless their hearts... such good people) The screwed up situation finally got unscrewed...

I received a letter from the local SSA  office advising that none of the above was my fault... I received an apology of sorts from a very nice lady. I sent the ''deposit'' as required certified mail containing a cashiers check!  I sent the check thru emergency overnite delivery.  I have the signed receipt card and have sent copies of it out to the world!!!!!!  Cashiers check was received and signed for on the appropriate date.  All done by the end of May.

Now, the fun begins... On Monday, the 7th of July, I recieved another letter from SSA (third time in the last twelve months) advising me that I will NOT receive any monies from SSA until February 2015!  Not lying or exaggerating here... this IS the truth!  That I have been overpaid by Xnumber of dollars and they will be taking the funds away....

I have naturally contacted my Caseworker at the Congressman's office.  She has all the copies of this recent fiasco!  If I really had all this money I have allegedly received, I would have more than enuf to buy an ATV (4 wheeler) with all the trimmings and build a garage on the mountainside.  I'm talking thousands!

I am going public with this to give fair warning to others who might end up in the same type boat!  KEEP COPIES OF EVERYTHING AND BE HONEST.  ANYTIME YOU SPEAK WITH ANY ONE AT THE SSA'S OFFICE, WRITE DOWN NAME OF PERSON YOU TALKED TO, THE DATE AND THE TIME.... ADD PHONE NUMBER TOO...

Sorry about this but I feel I need to warn others... So, I am off to do Battle again... Take care all of mine... go in safety always.  Remember that being good and honest doesn't always pay... lolol

Many hugs, much love and lots of lafter each day... meems, the TerMOMinator

2014*6*19 Thursday  EMOM'S MOUNTAIN NEWS

Welcome home, dear hearts, welcome home.  Get your buns in here and cool off!  Lordy pete, it's been miserably hot and dry around here... we get the winds and lightning but not much rain with these rolling storms.

Now, here's a HEADS UP for you kids.  I'm thinking of changing my name to 'Karma'!  No joke!  lolol  As we all know, paybacks can be a _itch!  I was in the bed dozing when that popped into my brane!  I've already given the Marv fair warning.  I think he was stunned cause the only reply I got was an Oy Vey!  I think I am getting the giggles.

I need to tell you about the opionaires that run on FB almost daily "what kind of___ are you?"  Just let me say again that the world is in trouble!  --- A Harpy, snow leopard, an owl, a dragon, Star Trek's Mr. Spock, a druid (in a past life..watch it Marv)

And to those who deluged me with "sympathy" about my bedding... Just remember the above!  lolol  Truly, I did get some of the funniest remarks...cracked me up.

Well, I was in the living room yesterday.  The rat pack wanted in... was too hot for them... only 94o yesterday.  Anyhow, they started play fighting/wrestling as usual.  Bonnie was under the love seat sassing the the Houdie who, of course, couldn't get too her.  Homer was on my lap observing the other four.  Homer does seem to keep things under control.. sort of.  Well, anyway, the Pyggs was right in the middle of things just a carrying on!

Fair warning, this paragraph might offend some.... Well, Pyggs was 'mounting' everybody... showing dominance, I think.  Once during this melee, Pyggs mounted the wrong end of the Houdie.  Houdie grabbed a body part.  Pyggs let go right away and so did the Houdie.  I fell off the love seat!  (Marv said I shouldn't tell this but I have given fair warning)
   
I'm gonna try to play with the new cam for a bit and see what happens.  I REALLY want to take some pix of the foam matress... Sheesh.

Guess that's it for now.  Take care all of mine; go in safety always.  Remember that "what goes round, comes round!"  lolol You may quote me!  lolol  The Meemsy

EMOM'S MOUNTAIN NEWS*Monday*2014*6*16

Welcome home, dear hearts, welcome home... Help yourselves to     the coffee, toast, biscuits... sorry, I'm out of bacon at the moment     and it's all the Marv's fault... He has failed to send me more... lolol    Gotcha!  lololol  And Meems looks so pitiful right now!   

Look out world!  She's almost back!  lolol I am NOT going to check     the news until I've written MY news... MG!  The world is a depress-    place right now.  But it would certainly get better if the delinquents    could     stop tormenting each other... Now, THAT is your basic     truism!   

Allan: I'll show you my Karate kick!  I'll have you know, that I went     into the dojo wearing a white belt.  If that tells you anything!  No     disrespect intended here...truly. I as in decent shape.  My only    problem was    my body remembered all my ballet classes from 20    years before.    LOLOL  Sort of interferred with my kicks and my     stance!...more than a little!

OK, now I'm getting down to business!  Y'all know I have the 5     youngun's in the brat pack!  Well, the other day, while I was doing    the wild arguments with the puters, camera and photo explosion,    I could hear the little ones play fighting on my bed which is on the     opposite wall here in my 'business' office.  I giggled and laffed while     I fussed at the puter.  Oh dear! I turned around and saw the most     awefull mess.  Sheesh!  Part of their fun and games consisted of    digging a hole in the foam mattress after they had removed the     sheet for that area.  Hole is probably 8 inches across and a good    foot long!  Not only that, somebody has started chewing on the     corner of one of my down filled pillows!  Even the Newbie wasn't    this bad.  He at least left the back walls of the house standing...

Remind me to tell you about the unstuffing that came out of the     doggie bed pillow and how far it can travel.

Need to get going here.  Take care all of mine; go in safety always.    Remember that if all else fails, you can always sleep on the floor....

Many hugs, much love, and lots of laffter always. Meems
