need some more Marph Gloof in my life!!!

The words translate to "That's Good"!!!
Well, I suppose it does mean that I was very tempted to have some 'quick setting cement' for dinner. Sometimes, when I don't really feel like fixing anything I default to having Oatmeal for dinner.
Hence, Marf Gloop, or some such epithet. I feel like spouting a group of epithets at this particular time. My patience and time and money have been sorely tried. My shoulder is pretty much recovered from surgery. I have to have a bit more patience in dealing with the physical therapy folks and such.
 So any hoo. Time for bed.
Love ya, The Turtle Lady.

"Crazy cat Lady" or Modeling your current life upon an impossible scenario

Talk about encircling the Venn Diagrams or how to tighten your Karass without really trying.
We did lose a Brother to Pale Horse today. her name was Judy. Well-known, well-loved, and just an all around excellent friend. 
It has me thinking about the road I have taken and the friendships and feelings and emotions that I have encountered over the last 40 years. I went in to this whole deal of a new club, a new group, with bunches of excitement. Heck, I was 23 years old! Do things that you do before you are 30 make a difference later in life? Uh, yeah! 
So what has this to do with Cats, or me, or Math, for that matter?
I was born on the 'wrong side of the tracks'. If one can relate this to music, the socially ept girls and the "born to privilege" were like the song "Dawn, Go Away" Me, I  was more like "Ragdoll". Any one who remembers these songs from the fifties and early sixties, can probably relate to this concept. 
My reality has been fractured, time after time, within the past 10 years. Grief and Loss, Grief and Loss. I have achieved no closure, no sense of  the "why" of it all. People that I have known and loved, in a household which treasures it's own. What does all this mean to me? Am I missing something? 

I think I am about ready to buy the little house on a corner (figuratively) get my stuff in and myself more or less intact, and change my name to Mrs. Friddle (with 47 cats)

Any body care to send me a "Crazy Cat Lady Starter Kit?" (no, seriously, don't do that, I live in a two bedroom place!!! seriously don't! ) 
I am tempted to go over to Live Journal and see if anything has been updated there.  I' am tired, It is late, and the two cats will probably be sprawled on the bed, not leaving much 'real estate' for me.
Good night. Amy. 3/20/15

just noodling around...

upon reflection, it has been a decent day. I haven't felt scrunchy or ookie. I sat down and watched a funny movie w/o any (practically ) interruptions, and the kitty has been behaving.  So just going to quietly say goodnight, and may all rest well. G night.. Starsib.

Raspberry!!!!

J. Clooney Frog, what a week! Feel like I have been through the mill.  computer installed, people in an out, this, that and the other thing happening.. Woof! so the winding down is commencing. I feel as if there are people who would like to fry me on a griddle about now. However, if I give energy to that; I will get depressed, and that doesn not do any one any good. I feel okay, it's just that my positive spin on things was reinforced, and I tried to enforce my boundaries, and ended up feeling like "the bad guy". I am about ready for bed.. G night, all... A

Maudlin, middlin, day

oh geez, so I could've done this a lot earlier. So I finally am feeling less bored and tired, and now it is getting close to time to cop some ZZZZ.s Well, that's okay. My ex friend used to say, when you're depressed, get some sleep, you'll feel better in the morning. That doesn't necessarily hold water in some case, but it's probably a pretty good idea most times. I was so bored I even resorted to doing some housework! Okay.. it is bedtime... none of my friends are on line... So g night! Shelley

Hello All!

I have found that I do my best work in the middle of the night. I am doing okay. I am missing a story that I wanted to revise, and I will have to do it from memory, you never know, it may turn out better, even. I have been fighting this galloping crud for months. This lousy winter has kept me feeling a bit ill for months. Here's to feeling better. I hope my sister is still checking up on me. We haven't blogged here in a while. Well, time to go back to bed.

and the Turtle Lady is taken.. Sucks. A

Result of What type of girl are you?!!
