a rather odd event
Here is what happened
I have animals at the local fair in town
Sooo me and my mom camp out there in our trailer! And my lovely friend Amanda was staying with us for a few days.
On Saturday we were walking to our trailer, as we walked i saw a man in front of our trailer door. I figured it was my dad, he was dressed in a white t-shirt, dark colored shorts, and had dark brown hair but the face was hard to make out. He looked at us as we approached, then as we drew closer he turned and walked into the trailer.
Me and Amanda walked into the trailer, I started talking as I was figuring my parents were in there.
But...no one was in there. I looked around and turned to Amanda, asking if she had seen a man go into our trailer as we were walking up.
She gave me a odd look, and replied that she didnt.
I stood for a moment, "But...I saw some one! I swear I did. I thought it was my dad. He walked RIGHT in here!"
"I think your finally losing your mind Brenna." she replied with a slight chuckle.
I swear I saw some one...
Some one was outside our camper and walked in through the door!
Or maybe I am losing it finally lol

Bioshock
I am, if nothing else, a big gamer. Always have been, probably always will be. I blame Mario... hey, if my dad thought he was cool, then it was super cool to me! Anyway, I've played a ton of games throughout the years, but the ones that always get me aren't the ones with the fastest paced action, best graphics, most gore, etc. The ones that really get me are the ones with the best, most intriguing, original and greatest story lines. Kinda ends up being an interactive book or movie. That plus if the trailer is insanely good too... which brings me to the game called Bioshock. Really original story, and fun game if you like to shoot things and solve puzzles... and solve puzzling ways to shoot things.
PS... I really love the old music in the second one!
*Warning*
The first (top) one ends up being a bit gory, just for the faint of heart.

Till Tomorrow ........
It was just another eff'd up day. And there is absolutely no reason for details. Just know that I could not get online till after 5:00 today ...... or pretty close to it.
So, the refrigerator issue turned into a freaking nightmare this morning with it ending in mom, Dave and I all pissed off at one another. It's way to long of a story to get into .... so I'm not. Sometimes we wonder why we bother trying to help though. Enough said.
Dave and his friend Mitch are taking the trailer in tomorrow. Dave is still outside doing final touches. I'm done asking if I can help ..... it just tends to get me in trouble. I don't know if it is because we are so close to leaving that we are fighting so much, but today has been just stupid. One argument after another. Stupid shit.
I will take mom into town tomorrow to look at a couple of refrigerators, make arrangements for delivery and then home to get things packed up to take out Saturday. And we are gone. Till we come out. I don't have to come out till the 14th of July. And I may not. I'm gonna have to regardless but it sure nice to think that maybe I won't. But I will. Fuck.
Right now we are using a 60's refrigerator .... no shit. Its pretty funny. Small. Olive green. But it runs and is keeping the food cold. Obviously not too economical ..... which is why we need to get another one in soon. In the meantime, thank you for friends who have old refrigerators laying around.
Alright, out of here ...... I'll post tomorrow I'm sure ..... which will probably be my final post till I come out from down river maybe mid week ...... time to get to work ...... gold is beckoning ......
Till tomorrow ...... sleep well ......
Peace. J.

THE THERMOSTAT IS HERE! THE THERMOSTAT IS HERE!
Bingo last night. So I was up to late and then up to early this morning. But I did scrounge up $1.00 worth of change and played a game ..... and won $45.00. The bingo gods smiled on me. And I stopped. Was so grateful to have that $45.00 I about cried. lol I'm tired. I'd like to go back to bed. And just would like to say one more time for the record books ..... old lady bingo players can be BITCHES! 
The thermostat for the trailer arrived yesterday and Dave installed it immediately. And as of this morning the refrigerator works! YAY! So it looks like MAYBE JUST MAYBE we will be able to get out of here sometime this weekend. I'm actually feeling the anxiousness in the body so I know its going to happen soon. I can't wait.
So today will be spent getting some stuff together and setting it aside so that as soon as Dave says "load her up" ...... I'll be loading her up ......
The dogs have been really funny as the trailer has started to look more like a trailer again. Maybe they can sense our anxiousness. Joe especially ..... once the trailer door opens for Dave to be working he is in it. And won't come out. I think he is making sure we don't leave him behind. They know the trailer means river ..... and that means: lizard hunts, swimming, stick chasing, sleeping in the warm sun on the beach, chasing squirrels ...... and fish ..... and water skippers ..... oh my ..... so much to do for a dog. They love their time down there.
We have managed to get rid of the majority of the earwigs from the garden. We now have five very happy healthy artichokes growing like crazy. The strawberries are sweet and juicy and in abundance. The raspberries are turning a beautiful red and will soon be devoured ..... we have so many this year ..... its crazy. The first zucchini will more than likely be picked today and eaten with dinner. The tomatoes are small but in a couple weeks ..... oh, yum ..... can't wait. My peppers are coming on like gangbusters and Dave picked the first one this morning. We also have a water snake living .... well, everywhere. He was in the fishpond the other day enjoying a tadpole or two ..... then this morning he was enjoying his cool summer morning in the strawberries. He keeps startling me ...... I have no fear of water snakes ..... but when you don't know they are there ...... SHIT!
Mom is now hooked up to Lifeline and Dave and I can leave without too much worry or guilt. I was gone when they came yesterday but Dave made sure mom understood how to use and when to use. The biggest problem we are having now is just getting her to understand she wears this thing 24/7. Even in the shower. Its a button that she wears around her neck. Last night she was worried it didn't go with her shirt. "Mom, we are not making a fashion statement here." She just grunted in disgust. ***sigh***
Posting another slideshow of the trailer and other stuff ..... just wish we had taken one of the double sink and stove / oven ...... it's really nice ...... didn't realize till I started to put this together we neglected the front inside of the trailer ..... oh well.
I hope everyone's Tuesday is a good one. Peace y'all ......

Haven't Waited In A Gas Line Since The Seventies ......
Waited in a gas line yesterday in Ashland, Or to pay $4.09 a gallon and was happy to do it. $60.00 and 45 minutes later the tank was filled.
The next cheapest gas in the Ashland / Medford area was $4.27 .... explains the line. Gas here in the valley where I live? $4.77 a gallon.
Yesterday was a $300.00 day ..... between groceries, gas, lunch and trailer parts & pieces. We shopped at Winco in Medford and for $111.00 walked out with probably twice as much food as we do shopping here in the valley. It hurts to put out a large chunk of change out like that in one day but then we have a full tank and food to last several weeks if planned out right and used to its maximum.
I guess the point of this post is just to reinforce that I am worried. Worried about what this country is in for. Its crazy .... at least to me almost inconceivable the reality of it all. Maybe living so rural makes things hit home a bit more but watching what is happening around us here even ..... hay prices tripling with the price of diesel at $5.15 a gallon.
Oh well ..... tis what it is ..... ****sigh****
I'm off to throw something in the crock pot for dinner ..... our lettuce is up so fresh lettuce for lunch! YAY ..... and the strawberries .... oh, coming on like gangbusters ..... and a zucchini will be ready in just a few days ..... we will have raspberries galore this year too ..... the bushes are just loaded .... YUM!
Enjoy your Friday .....
