Craftmatic
9 AM
This mornin' got off to a rip-roarin' beginnin', hahaha. I have set up a delivery date of each Tuesday from Purity Dairies. David, the very nice milkman, will bring my order to my door every Tuesday mornin' at 5:30am or there abouts. I was surprised at all of the things one can order from a dairy provider. They have the usual things like milk, cottage cheese, sour cream, ice cream, etc. But then they also offer sweetened ice tea in a gallon jug which I am drinkin' some of now. It's pretty good. They also deliver eggs, frozen pizzas, chicken salad, pimento spread, waffles, even coffee...I was surprised when I saw the list of things that I can have David deliver to my doorstep. Now if I can just get my mail person to bring my mail to the door each day I'll be very happy.
I did something I may live to regret, but I won't know until later. Well, I haven't actually done anything yet, but sometimes I buy things I really don't need just because they seem good at the time and I've been on a wild spendin' spree for a few weeks now.
Yesterday I called and set up an appointment with Craftmatic Beds. I have thought it would be nice to have an adjustable bed. So this afternoon a salesman, I'm sure, is supposed to come by the house to talk with me about the Craftmatic Beds. One of my online friends from D's chat group says that she has one of them and she loves it! So now I have an appointment to hear all about them and to see which bed would suit me best. I think that to have the adjustable bed may help me sleep better. Right now I toss and turn most of the night and sometimes I have to elevate my legs with pillows to relieve the strain from the artifcial hip. With this bed I can adjust the foot and head sections to a more comfortable position. The cheapest bed they have, accordin' to the web site, begins around $1,000 and up depending on what a person's needs are.
Then after I called them I thought to myself maybe I shouldn't have jumped at this so quickly. But I think if I buy one I will really enjoy it and hopefully sleep much better. I'd hate to think that I'd spent enough money on this bed to pay for half of a new compact car (hahaha) and then still be uncomfortable. I'm in a dilemma now. Well, it'll be interestin' to hear about them anyhow.
I was lookin' at Belle's Journal this mornin' and it seems changed. I wonder if that's due to the new computer's settings or if it looks that way to most viewers? The letters look much larger and not as feminine as they did before. The title looks more stodgy. If I change computers will that cause the lettering to change too? I know it made the color change. When I have more time to think about it and study it more I will try to figure out just what has happened.
2 PM
So now I have a new expensive bed with a lifetime warranty. If for any reason the bed gives me any trouble they will fix it or replace it for free. I hope it will be as comfortable as they make it sound. I'm lookin' forward to bein' able to adjust the foot of the bed. The bed even comes with a memory so that when I find just the right adjustments I want on my bed I can set the memory and it will from that automatically adjust itself to that setting each time. It also includes a massager. Now if it only included a gorgeous guy I'd be in heaven. Whew! For the amount of money I'm payin'it should have! The men will come next week to install it. The salesman said they will dismantle my other bed and even help to arrange the new one in the way that I prefer it. I can hardly wait.
I have been readin' up on some of my favorite diaries: NightDragon, Squirrelrat (ND's wife), Squirrel X (who is a lovely friend and fantastic writer), Pork Tornado, and my friend:McClain. I sort of got behind in my readin' with all the stuff goin' on in my life this past few weeks. But, like I said, I'm beginnin' to settle down some now. The newness of bein' able to pay all of my bills on time again is about to wear off. Now if I could only figure out why my print on the diary looks different I would be overjoyed.
I also paid a visit to my favorite fellow Matt fans: Two White Chicks and a Blog. But Kimberly hasn't updated since September 25th. Wonder if the shock of Ben and Jen gettin' back together again has thrown a deep pall over her life? Hahaha. It sure has done that for me.
I don't really know for certain that Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez are together--together, or just together for the publicity. But the last I read about them on my home page just recently said they've been seen together again down in Savannah, Georgia buyin' a shotgun... (????!!!)
Well, I'm sure if this is true Matt is steelin' his nerves while he prepares for the next go-round of hateful treatment from J-Lo. Why she dislikes Matt so much is completely beyond me. What did he ever do to her? Well, it might be that she's jealous because Ben is such good friends with Matt. She's evidently afraid of the amount of influence that Matt has with Ben. And poor Matt....poor baby....He just grins and bears it all with such dignified aplomb. He doesn't deserve this kind of malicious spitefulness. J-Lo has just taken a deep dislikin' to the poor guy for no real reason. And for THAT reason I don't care for her. She is losin' possible fans by her mean treatment of Matt.
I think Matt is takin' it all extremely well considerin' everything J-Lo has done, like tellin' Ben she didn't want Matt to be his best man at the weddin' that never happened anyhow--or did it? I would say only her hairdresser knows for sure, but I've heard Jen treats that poor woman worse than she does Matt, if that's even possible. I just wish Ben and Jen would make up their minds one way or the other. This has to be just another one of Jen's attempts to boost their ratin's in the public eye. That woman might be beautiful if she didn't have such a mean streak runnin' through her "death to Matt Damon" heart.
Poor Matty...He's so busy that he can hardly think straight and Ben is so....un-busy and gettin' to be even more unwanted since all this stuff with Jen started and especially since that bomb movie "Gigli". You'd think Ben would see somethin's wrong when his popularity plummeted once he got together with Jennifer Lopez. That should have spoken volumes. She's the one draggin' Ben down--not Matt.
Matt's birthday is tomorrow!!! He'll be 33 years old. Don't forget to celebrate!!! I think I'll hang some balloons, have some Death By Chocolate ice cream and enjoy a Matt Movie Marathon tomorrow! Whoooo Hoooo!
FROM BELLE, YOUR DEVOTED FAN!
Awwww....Ain't he the sweetest little thing?
