Remember that song, "Gloom, despair and agony on me, Deep dark depression, excessive misery, If it weren't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all, Gloom, despair, and agony on me."? No? It's just me? Yeah, well...<br /><br />It isn't actually as bad as all that, not really. We are having some problems with our new neighbors, who seem to have taken an instant dislike to us...either that, or they're just idiots. They park in our parking spaces, slam doors, cuss at each other in loud voices, and tonight when I got out of the cab coming home, someone was peeking out of the blinds of the front door at me. Not a quick, "who's out there?" peek, but a long, watch me walk from the street to the front door stare. Weird. They'll stand outside with their car stereo thumping, which I totally don't understand, and they beat on the porch railings while they're standing there. Why? I'm thinking it's to try and be obnoxious...they are pretty strange.<br /><br />My blood sugar is higher than I'd like, but then again, I haven't exactly been being very careful about my diet since I've been stressed out with the move and the money situation and everything. And the arthritis is intensely painful. Not only that, but it has rained nearly every day for the past week, and is supposed to rain all this week, too. Anybody know a good ark builder???<br /><br />No stitching pics yet, although I have two finishes...a cute little towel with a Paula Vaughan floral on it for the downstairs half bath, and LHN's "Cherries", which is finished but not "finished" finished. Hopefully there will be a bit of sun tomorrow and I can get pics...we're having scanner problems, too, did I mention that? And the CD driver isn't working on the computer, either.<br /><br />It never rains but it pours. Literally!!<br /><br />ETA: Oh, gosh!!! I completely forgot about this picture!! This is Becca at her very first T-Ball game (she just turned four). She got the game ball, now how cool is that??? Obviously she does NOT come by her athletic genes by way of her grandma, who came darned near to failing gym class! I'm about as graceless and uncoordinated as a three-legged, one-eyed elephant!!<br /><br /><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v259/dnabears/baseball017.jpg" /><br /><br />And here are a couple of other pics from the game, too...including little Sylvie watching.<br /><br /><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v259/dnabears/outfieldbecca.jpg" /><br /><br /><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v259/dnabears/baseball007-1.jpg" /><br /><br /><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v259/dnabears/baseball005-1.jpg" />
