Katie's Story

Remember when I told you that where I used to live there were coyotes coming around and no one could figure out why. Well, they mystery has been solved Juvi's girlfriend posted on social media, that she leaves out water and food for the coyotes because she like to see them up close. Oh, now their cat is missing because he got outside and was never seen again. I really hope the cat was taken in by a neighbor and not the coyote.

There is a person who I follow on social media, who is a mess. Okay, maybe that isn't nice, but it is what I feel. Why do I feel she is a mess? She has been given every opportunity to do well and makes poor decisions. Confused? Okay, let me give you more details. She doesn't have to pay rent because she lives in a home owned by her mother-in-law. She was able to go to college and not pay for it. She got an associates degree.  She doesn't pay for medical insurance. She has posted publicly that she has Medicaid. She recently had surgery and bragged that she didn't have to pay anything for it. Everything in her life is a disaster. A couple of months ago, she said she had to have this major surgery and would be in the hospital for at least a week and off work for three months. She was in the hospital overnight and kept posting the whole time. She had some time of a fatty tumor removed.  Recently, her mother was rushed to the hospital and she was sure she would ...

  I had a few minutes to spare, so I was looking for something to watch on YouTube. I stumbled onto "Without a Crystal Ball " by Katie Joy. I saw she has 135,000 subscribers, so I thought it might be interesting. Oh I was so wrong. All she did was rehash rumors about reality tv stars, such as The Duggars. Her evidence was social media posts by The Duggars.  I guess I am not shocked that people would spend their time doing this sort of stuff. I guess what I am surprised by is that she has a YouTube channel with so many followers that she gets paid to do this. Do people enjoy gossip and rumors that much to tune in to her? I guess I have too much going on to worry about what goes on in Duggarland.

 I never thought I would live long enough to see this actually happen.  I bet Iowa is not too happy because they will loose revenue. I am not a gambler. The last time I went to any casino was in 2019. Here is the article that on the casino in Nebraska... VIDEO: First look at Lincoln's upcoming casino - KLKN-TV

 Once in a while I get questions about what is going at where I used to live. I only know bits and pieces. I will share what I do know. I am thankful that my new neighborhood is not as active as my last one. While the last one gave me lots of blog material, it was so stressful to live in. How do I know what is going on in my neighborhood? Well, people tell me stuff and then if I want to repeat it, I research it to see if it is true. On Jan 1st HOA dues went up 5%.  Dues normally go up 1% each year. 5% seems like a huge increase. I live in a neighborhood with an HOA, but I don't know if they went up because I am a renter not a homeowner. I know you all love a good Juvi update.  Here is what I know. He now has a son. Juvi's court date in Oct had to be rescheduled because of his son's arrival. It was rescheduled. He must have pleaded guilty or was found guilty because he has a PSI court date in a couple of weeks. I still don't know what he did. I could find out by calling ...

 A four door silver colored Toyota sedan sits in front of my home. I don't own the car. I am not entirely sure where the owner lives.  The car is older, it is four door with a couple of dents, it might be a car from the 1990s, it looks like a Corolla, and it has fuzzy black dice hanging from the rearview mirror. Anyway, I wonder how much longer it will be parked in front of my home because it seems to make it way between my home and the community mailboxes every couple of weeks. I don't know where the owner lives. I saw a Caucasian ( Race is only being used as a descriptive term) woman get in it once. I watched her drive it around the block and then park it in front of the mail boxes.

I have had two dogs in my life and this was the first time that I was paid a visit from Animal Control because of a noise complaint.  Here is what happened: I was finishing up eating my lunch and the doorbell rang. I didn't get up because I was expecting a package from FedEx and I thought that it was FedEx. After I finished eating my lunch, putting the dishes in the dishwasher, and wipe off the counter, I decided that I would retrieve my package. I looked out the glass window near the front door and saw an officer. Stunned, I opened the door and asked, "Is there something I can help you with?"  He began to inform me that there had been two noise complaints because my dog was barking excessively. I was shocked. My dog is almost 12 years old and not once has anyone complained about her barking.  The conversation continued to include that I had broken the law by not licensing her.  I quickly was able to put that nonsense to rest. I showed him the paperwork and her licen...

 The following tweet was written by a professor that I know.  It made me laugh, so I am sharing it with all of you. I can’t begin to tell you hard it is on my liquor game to move from Vegas to Utah. Literally just got denied service in SLC because Lucy the state worker for @UTDABC thought I was trying to buy 4 bottles of Pinot Noir for a sketchy-looking dude in the store.

 I am thoroughly disgusted about what happened in DC today. I am disappointed that any US President would instruct his supporters to storm the Capitol. He put so many lives in danger. He needs to go NOW!! I hope that Pence uses the 25th Amendment.  To avoid having to watch the horrible scene play over and over again on TV, I watched The Call to the Wild. It was a good movie, which I enjoyed.
