More on unwanted emails


I think the spammers believe that anyone named gypsy must be a man, because the mail seems to be slanted towards a man.  I never actually open them up but the inbox sometimes shows the first few words, such as "Hello mighty man".  I recently received one that I thought was funny, the subject of which was "Help me cheat on my husband".   I wonder how many people actually open up these obviously stupid emails.

I need to stop watching Animal Cops Houston on TV.  Lately I've seen several episodes featuring German Shepherds, and I want one.  I'd like a small female shepherd.  I love big dogs and can't imagine myself ever wanting a very small one, but I'm thinking something between 60 and 70# would be just about right.  I also love black labs, but don't have the energy for even a middle aged lab.  It's all dreaming though, because I don't think I could afford to feed one much less deal with vet care.

  I remember old days as a child when we took our dog to the vet for a checkup and booster shots once a year.  It probably cost $10 in those days!  I think dogs were healthier back then, and I heard of such things as distemper and rabies, but not the list of serious diseases of today.

I miss Lady, and Smoky before her.

- Community Day
This was the big day for the community - I attended it two or three years ago and marched with my grandson's group so I didn't see the first part of the parade.  Today I had a prime spot and saw everything, from the honor guard to the last...

- I Definitely Overdid It Today
I washed three large loads in my washer and carried them one by one across the street to hang them out on the line.  Wet clothes are heavier than dry, and wet towels are much heavier than dry.  I had a full load of towels that I've put off...

- A Day's Work
I washed two loads of laundry and got everything hung out to air dry.  I thought I would just kick back for the rest of the day because my energy was spent, but then remembered I needed to change the sheets on my bed.  I put the summer sheets...

I thought I would write a quick entry while I'm waiting for my baked potato to come out of the oven.  This morning I was down to 111#, and I will soon start to get pretty nervous about that.  I'm about 5'5" (having lost about an...
