hi from the original nutzybahen

This is the first message for the new Nutzy Bahen Blog.

I have been typing for twenty minutes and then I pushed the wrong button and it all went away which I am assured by both daughters is impossible, so here is the question since this happens to me all of the time. Am I the only person in the computer literate world that has a suicide key? It is on the bottem of the board and has a symbol that looks like a waving flag, (or maybe it is the key next to it)but if I accidentlly hit it instead of the ctrl key the whole page dissappers and you are sent back to the beginning and have to sign on again which is also a real risky business for me because the computer suddenly doesn't recognize me, again. Did I mention that I have to go through Gordon's account because my Email account quit working for me so completely that we can't even get it to go away so I can have a different account. Oh the stories I could tell you about me and the computer would turn your stomach, so why am I now all of a sudden a blogger? April called me and told me I have too. If I manage to derail the entire blogging community and the whole world of information exchange goes dark, you all now know, It was April's fault.

I was going to go to Las Vegas this week for a little quality time with Zack and Jana. Jana is going to teach me how to pressure cook and preserve meat for food storage. But the doctor put me on a new pill to replace the last pill that was pulled off of the market because it was killing people. This new pill has made it possible for me to take less insulin but it is making me sick to my stomach, so I am home instead sharing random thoughts and threatening the dot com systems of the world with permenant blackouts. Good times.

When Judy found out that I was headed for Jana's house to learn how to can meat she called to ask if I have never heard of Spam? (The meat, not the pop ups.) Judy apparently doesn't realize that since Lori and her family moved away and I have no job, any excuse for a trip is welcome. Hell I am almost to the point that if Jana said I should come so we could kill some chickens and butcher a hog, I would soon be cruising down the road humming a happy tune. I'm not quite there yet, but the days are getting longer.

I hesitate to write family news since we are hoping that the family will log on and fill us in on their own. This however leaves me with very little material to work with. Gordon is just not that entertaining. We have had a hard winter. Gordon got sick and stayed that way. He worked all day and slept or read the rest of the time. He said more to me on the phone during the six weeks that I was in St Louis then he did the rest of the winter months. The snoring and snarking got so bad that I insisted he sleep elsewhere, so it was like I was living alone. I quit speaking to him around Christmas and he didn't even notice until a week ago. We are talking again but it started with a fight. On Sunday we had breakfast together as usual and as usual he was sitting with a book in front of his face, so I doddled a little with the crossword puzzle. When I was finished with my breakfast, I left the table and went in to get dressed for church, whereupon Gordon picked up the puzzle and said the first words of the morning to me. "Couldn't finish it huh?" That is when the fight broke out. We are better now. More for later. loveT
