Sheri, why have you volunteered all over the Quad Cities, given them everything in writing? my gawd.

 

heard some morning DJ's saying they don't call anybody by their name unless they are friends with the person. so, I guess that's something else I'm doing wrong when I go into the stores.

 my gawd, Sheri, can you have Any time alone? umm, No. Phil says Why are you listening to them?  for music, and to find stuff out. You listen to the radio too, Phil, and so far your Erie station hasn't indirectly hit me, but I'm still waiting. "Nobody is watching you."  geez.

My Anniversary.

  This day is the anniversary of my near death thru electronic torture, 18 years ago. it lasted up to two weeks, but at the time, I had no idea this was even possible. fighting thru the most powerful, excruciating force field over my head, everywhere I went, and no one else could feel it! But I survived, and have gone on to tell the world about it.

what exactly was the problem, Sheri?

 in the hotels and Alec playing his music, and you playing the radio, and Beth trying to watch cable t.v. mass confusion.  but you've always bought headphones. idk.  no plug in. but many times, taking advantage there of their gym, working out. it didn't need to be absolute like all the media said in 2014. yeah.

you gotta be fucking kidding me

  Dear Ms. Grutz, Thank you for your recent correspondence in which you asked for help with regard to a legal problem. While I appreciate hearing from you, I regret, as a United States Senator, I am precluded from intervening in matters of a legal nature. If you have not already done so, I would urge you to contact an attorney who would be in the best position to take actions necessary to protect your rights. Accordingly, you may wish to reach out to Iowa Legal Aid at (800) 532-1275 or the Iowa State Bar Association at (515) 243-3179. Again, I am sorry I am not able to be of service in the matter. Sincerely, Joni K. Ernst

Willow

  couldn't reach Willow. let her out to the backyard, she jumped the fence, not a small task, found her hanging out Like  ·  Reply  ·  5m Active Sheri Grutz at her house across the cul-de-sac/ got her on her leash, brought her back. laid the whole time, we had her pillows, still ate breakfast and supper, only on leash to go pottie and poopie. Relieve yourself, honey!

Jeopardy

  I wouldn't go so far as to study up on many recurring categories to get better at Jeopardy, but I think the big time winner has been studying up on poetry. she got a few right yesterday. she didn't get cesura though, but I did. can't believe I didn't get the final question right, Vincent Van Gogh, it was worded tricky, not really what he's known for. she got it right, though, the others didn't.

my thought on this when the sheeple miss it.

  Last week they aired a white young guy, maybe late teens, standing in front of a hospital, they aired him, saying he saw all the dead bodies coming out, about 16 or 17. First question, why was he even there, and able to be there, no mask on. does he live on the block? then about 2 or 3 three clips later on Lester, they aired a family standing together, mourning the loss of a shooting victim in the family, and it looked like the same young man on the left of the whole family. unless he has a twin, I'd say he's getting paid.

Phil says the head and total body pain has never stopped. gawd, I really feel for him.

 I made colored fliers today at the library.  their printer could take cardstock. I made 5 of em, didn't have, didn't have enough small cash and change. they turned out great!  wrote my phone in strips so people can tear it off. They've made Word a lot easier, it's all right there, no searching. Tomorrow will be nicer weather.  I'll go out and put em around town, maybe Grand Mound too. I'm also in the process of making a yard sign. there's a place in Rock Island that does them. I'm only making one, but she said I'd save money if I made more. it will cost between 40 and 50 bucks.  I still got a hundred dollar bill from when puppy was here. 

Bears did the same thing the Cubs did, got rid of some of their scrappy, good players. and all the fans who paid high dollar to buy the jersey.

 they'll be even worse tonight, at winning. gotta tell Jason, Yes there is a college championship game. I just heard Bill Stage talking about it, didn't catch the date. I always thought it was the winner of the Rose Bowl. I should know this by now, but I forget. and why so late?  I thought Bill was saying betting on the game, so seems like it hasn't happened, and I'm not seeing it on social media. and they never talk about college ball during the NFL games.

Marti's first birth

 when I was pregnant, I told all the Grutz's, you know Angie, Sarah, and Brooke have a sister somewhere, (do you think they know now?) and I have a cousin somewhere. Grandma Grutz says to me:  "I fixed that birth so good, so that child would never find us." hmmm, the Grutz's.

this poem is pretty close to the ending of one of my short stories, where the young man is on stage giving a reading, and he screams out to his girlfriend at the end, "I don't know how many times I've tried to reach You!"

 

Drinking

also, Brad, it's a deep down  also, it's a deep biological thing when things are going badly, the most irritating feeling with no escape except beer. my whole body and mind is addicted to it. Enter You sent my mother used to trigger me into drinking.   it's a relief mechanism. the sabotage at work.  could be anything.  too long, hard, losing everything fight, to just blow it all off, Phil, like you.  He doesn't drink for the same reasons you do, Sheri, he's a target, and he's not mentally ill. also, glad I am, was searching for the spelling of a word, and the first hit came up on Bing was, Plagarism For Students:  What you should know. I wish to God I had just kept dancing. after everything I've done, that's all they know me by. only cuz you're a target, Sheri.  This happens every day, you find it on Facebook.  I usually don't say anything though. and look at all they've taken from you! it's just the fucking media, Sheri, nobody wants t

well, that was interesting

 called up to the ER here  to ask if they do Rona testing, she told me  they need a referral from a medical provider to do it there. I told her, okay, my man is showing all the symptoms, so I want him to get tested, and just to be safe I want to be tested to. She laughed at me.  and said, I don't even know who this is, or where you live! well, you can try asking me. I said, I was hoping to get it done today, but I'll see if he wants to wait and see if he can get into his doc tomorrow. she told me, like I was annoying her, Walgreens in Quad Cities does testing, and so does Hy-Vee. like I should know that.  it changes every week, even on the news the places like factories are  mandating shots, or wear a mask and get tested every week, the employee on t.v.,  even said they don't know where to get tested.  Plus it's all going to home kits, not sure how long that would take to get here, and I don't trust the accuracy. I told her okay, thank you, bye. But I really should

I don't know what he was thinking with this pole barn job he started

 last week it was 0 or below, and he's always cold in the house, always running the space heater.  My daughter got me a new one for Christmas. it's really nice. he hasn't had one beer at home since he's been sick. not sure if he'll go back to that job, but no idea what the doctor is gonna say, if I can get him there. if he doesn't, I'm gonna try to get energy assistance again, since both our income now is social security, but I'll claim some cash I've gotten from doggies.

I kinda miss my old fridge.

 don't know how long I've had the new one, but one of the shelves cracked, and for quite awhile now it's been leaking water off and on onto the floor.  it also makes popping sounds, and that's not from targeting, someone else said that too. They just don't make em like they used to. I was gonna get one with chipped ice dispenser on the front, but it didn't get good reviews. I like the freezer space though, over the old one.

in the mail

  Joni Ernst sent me a letter recently saying that I mentioned a medical condition and that she may be able to help with that, just to fill this one page form and send it back in. I'm going to, but under the medical condition I'm going to put, Suspect Mind Control Surveillance Target. that's all I've been contacting them with, so her letter is ridiculous. I'm heavily medicated, see a shrink every two months, sometimes have a therapist, have excellent insurance, so no, Joni, I don't need help with schizophrenia, unless you mean PTSD, those therapist are few and far between, so I'll write that down on the form too.

I really want to find Live2 on my old crashed laptop, not sure if it's possible. I have no idea why I can't find it on my backed up discs.

 I'm gonna have to do this on my own.  I've already asked Phil several times to take me there.  I'll call first.  I think there's still a repair shop in Wheatland, Iowa, about 15 minutes away. these poems were pretty good.  Not sure if I was drinking then.  of course, rarely, if ever did I drink when I was writing.

Some things might last forever. sorry about the ads.
