WILD LIFE INVASIONS

Recently, yesterday I was telling you all about the deer that wandered, aimlessly lost overran the Spa where I live.

The incident reminded Grandma J that she was living in the wilderness, just one hundred yards from a major intrastate highway known as FM 2410. This has huge significance since FM stands for Farm to Market in Texas and other wilderness states.

Will all the excitement of wildlife fading like Grandma J's hair from brown to grey into the past, Grandma J moved on with her plans for the day. Plans like taking A-Ron and his sister to the mall for a day of shopping and good Mexican food at En Fuego. Little did she know that her close encounter with Mother Nature's beasts was far from over......

As she started to get dressed, she felt some itching in her chest area. Glancing inside her bra, revealed a colony of ants. Holy mother of all living things!



Grandma J, quickly stripped down looked in her drawer full of "delicates" to see the whole Texas Colony of ants partying down like they were at a Victoria's Secret Grand Opening Gala.



Being quick on her feet, she sprayed the inside of the drawer with Raid Flying Insect stuff, then emptied the draw with her hands, and sprayed the inside of the empty drawer with more Raid Flying Insect stuff.....because that's all she had.



Next, she shook out all the infested "delicates" and then put them in the wash, and Swiffered up the ants' remains.



Please don't pay any attention to the dust.....I Swiffered the whole room, and I have a couple good reasons for the huge amount of dust amidst the ant corpses.

1. Construction dust in the AC vents.

2. Hello? Did you forget about Grandma J's dependency on Vicodin lack of a working knee, rendering her unfit for housework?

After a productive visit to the mall, it was back home to box up some special purchases to ship to 1SG John in Iraq.

And of course to veg out.....before heading out to the ball park.

And practice for the AAU South TX Regional Chmpionship Track & Field National Qualifier, July 16-18 in Round Rock TX. That Grandma J will sadly miss because she'll be at the VA Blogfest.

Even JJ was vegging out....too pooped for playtime......

You think? NOT!

A Tuesday Chock Full...

...of stuff you should have known on Friday.

We all know that Grandma J went to a Friday Matinee last Friday. Coincidence? Probably!

Despite her drug induced haze, and by drug induced we're talking about her wimpy dose of a half Vicodin tablet, she actually saw the movie and basically remembers. Grandma J always thinks that if she takes half the dose, she will only feel half as loony. Silly girl.




Hangover was funny as hell! OOPS! Grandma J just said hell, and she attributes it to the fact that she hasn't taken her meds yet this movie was just that funny....and a bit raunchy, thus the hell reference.

You all should know the story line by now, since the movie came out a month ago....A soon to be groom decides to have his bachelor party in Las Vegas...and we all know what happens in Las Vegas is supposed to stay in Las Vegas......and it does.

Of course, and you probably already know, the groom is the only normal member of this wedding party. He has two friends, one is a school teacher at an all boys preppy type school, and the other is a nerdy hen pecked Dr......who is really just a dentist. The final member of this entourage is the soon-to-be groom's soon-to-be brother-in-law......who is a couple of bubbles off center, and possibly a perv.

They check into a fancy upscale suite at Caesar's Palace. The suite was more that a suite...with a fancy name, but remember, Grandma J wasn't paying a whole lot of attention to details due to her drug problem.

From there Grandma J pretty much misses out on the who dang bachelor party, because the next thing she remembers, it's morning.....

Yeah, it's morning in the movie. They didn't invite us to the party, but we had one heck of a time trying to figure out what the blazes went on all night! The fun is like one of those who dunnit murder mysteries, without the murder, or the who. Are you confused yet?



The movie was hilarious, and a tad raunchy...reminding Grandma J of out of control college frat boys, more than grown, established men....except for the weird brother-in-law to be.

So go see the movie, and laugh your head off because Grandma J doesn't want to give away any of the laugh lines....

Now, on to something else that will make this whole post worth your well invested time...........

Right after Grandma J took her half dose of drugs yesterday, she sat down to read a zillion blogs. She has her laptop situated in a way so it's facing out the window, so she doesn't miss any of the excitement in the hood.

Especially, since she is one of a handful of residence at the Spa. On top of the scarcity of people, no one lives beyond Grandma J's apartment, because they are still in the construction phase.

Something walked past Grandma J's window....she thew on some clothes, and grabbed her camera.......



When she got outside, she was still able to capture a picture of this baby deer! Then she ran back inside to call Animal Control, but by the time she actually talked to someone they told her they don't go out for deer sightings because a slew of them live in the deep and heavily vegetated creek that borders the Spa. Let's hope the baby found his mommy.
