HOMELESS

Yes folks that is me, I have no home.  Everything I still own after giving away sooooo much is stored. I am living out of my suitcase.  I am at present living on the good graces of my son Cord and his wife Anne.  I am roughen it at their sweet digs in Austin.  I have my own room and full bath plus most of the walk-in closet.  They might not be able to get rid of me, just call me King of the Road, no food no rent etc....etc......

My UHaul experience was AWFUL.......I still have not sent letter to corporate asking for some sort of reimbursement for the POS I was driving.....a 3.5 hour drive which might have been 4.5 given that I was driving so slow with my load and it required gas every 150 miles took me 12 Hours*****!!!!!! U Haul is all sweet to you as long as you are in possession of their truck but when you go to turn it in, all the assurances they give you about making up for the brakes or lack of and time to fix and so forth, is just so many words and a nice go F&%$ yourself we have your $$ and our truck back and there isn't much you can do about it.  I will make it my mission in life to bad mouth them every chance I get. I figure you don't have to go tell it on a mountain just post it on Facebook.

This is Granny Jenny's favorite time of the year "Halloween"  the old witch just loved this holiday.  She wasn't much on Thanksgiving, Christmas or Easter but Halloween was worth waiting for. So far I have gone to two functions with my grandchildren and the big day is not even here.  It will be hard pressed for anyone to come up with a better costume than Anne, a glamorous Miss Piggy after by-pass surgery, Kermit would turn pink.  Son Cole is going as "The Beast" and his daughter as Belle that being her favorite story, she will be in heaven: Note to Cole: quit bitching about the cost of the costume it will be more than worth it for the memories.

Cole has just in the past few weeks opened up his new venture "The Last Resort Recovery Center" and it is going strong,  projections were for 1 or 2 clients the first month and we now have 4 with 2 more possible next week, hope we have enough beds.  Wish there was no need in the world for this type of business but the reality is that there are not enough beds for those who have a need.  Check out his web site.

Cord is talking to reality TV about his Fool's Roll event.  Someone contacted him about the possibility and he is going to see if there is a fit for it on TV, if Honey BooBoo can make it he is a sure bet.

I was fortunate to go with oldest granddaughter Tatum on a field trip today to "Crows Nest Farm" with her kindergarten class......a fun time was had by all.  I am still in my overalls and bath has my name on it as I got to chase and catch a runaway chicken, Tatum was much impressed with Granny, as I was with myself, if that small boy had not stepped on it I could not have done it, thank you boy in blue shirt.

Enjoy the season and cooler temps and if you have a spare room (with private bath, I am picky) let me know, I am turning into a great bum.
