My Living Will

by SacBarb

OK, one of my kids sent this to me on Mother's Day.  I can't believe he would really do this (well, maybe I can), and I know I can always plug the computer back in, but I am keeping one bottle of wine hidden, just in case.

MY LIVING WILL
    
  

 
  Last night, my kids and I were sitting in the living room and I said to them,
 'I never want to live in a vegetative state, dependent on some machine and
 fluids from a bottle. If that ever happens, just pull the plug.'

 They got up, unplugged the computer, and threw out my wine.
 
They're such assholes.

This weekend is the Twins Days festival in my town. Gonna get out before the crowds pile in! Going to a tie dye party this morning then to Sharon's. I'll come back tomorrow night when the festivities are over!

Maureen said...

Where is everyone? Getting 1st isnt as exciting when there isn't any competition :(

Maureen said...

Gonna shower...maybe I am making the nest smelly and that is keeping people away.

bbl

Maureen said...

Morning Glories!

Wohooooo Mo got prettiest!!! Have a great day Mo make me a T-shirt would you?

Barb they can unplug my computer but leave my vodka alone!! :)

Maureen said...

LYNNNNNNNN...I was totally getting a complex! Bless you!

Lynn D said...

I just rolled out of bed and sensed that Mo was having a crisis! I put on my Mighty Mouse T-shirt and ran to the computer, well after I made coffee, and made sure you were ok. Love ya!

Maureen said...

Mighty Mouse theme lyrics...

Mr. trouble never hangs around,
when he hears this Mighty sound,

Here I come to save the day!
That means that Mighty Mouse is on the way!

Yes sir, when there is a wrong to right,

Mighty Mouse will join the fight!

On the sea or on the land,
He's got the situation well in hand!


Yep...sounds like LYNN!!

Lynn D said...

The kids got me my tshirt for Christmas. lol

Jodi I hope Paul is feeling ok today. Some times it is the next day you find out that you really are hurt. Bummer about his vehicle. I hope it can be fixed. When it rains it pours.

Maureen said...

Supposed to be there at 10. 15 minute drive, stop for gas and find an ATM...not gonna make it!

Have a great SATURDAY my feathered friends!

bonachichi said...

Mo, LMAO at the convo you had with yourself.

If it's bad to spend time in front of the computer, why do we have to use it to get anything done?

night.owls.sb said...

Hi Mo.. Congrats on prettiest..and loved the banter with urself..

Sacbarb.. I think that will be me.. I am always in front the computer.. LOL

night.owls.sb said...

Well today is the day.. The backyard is all set to greet the guests.. the caterers arrive at 5p.. Wow.. even tho I had it catered lots of work had to be done.. Last nite the Italian Stallions set up all the table and chairs.. thank goodness for them cause I would have never been able to do it.. I am heading out to get my nails done.. I have to admit I am a bit nervous.. just really did not expect all of this.. but it is good to know one is loved..

Pics and vids will be taken :)

Hope all as a good day!

sacBarb said...

Happy Saturday Owls.

Mo, your beauty is blinding me today. Have fun at the tie dye. I will definitely hide a gallon.

Lynn, I agree with Mo. The Mighty Mouse title fits you perfectly.

Bonachichi, There are SOME things we need to do that don't involve sitting in front of the computer, however those things get put off, indefinitely, because I have this addiction to blogs and farming. Maybe my kids have a point. :0

sacBarb said...

Carol, Have a great time at the party and giver Cici a BIG Birthday squeeze from me.

sacBarb said...

Jodi, I hope your Hubby is doing OK today and not too sore.

Just_Lin said...

MO Woo Hoo!! You are surely the prettiest today, absolutely, positively. I'm never around in time for the competition for first. I'm sure you smelled as sweet as that rose avatar of yours. :)

Jodi Yikes! I'm so glad Paul is okay. How scary! (((HUGS)))

LynnD Well, if you had your Mighty Mouse cape on, you probably did make it in time. If you're like me, though, your cape is dirty and in the hamper. :(

Carol Party day has arrived! How exciting! I hope you have a wonderful time. xoxo

SacBarb Those who shall remain nameless (you), have me spending way too much time at the computer now that I am farming and homesteading It's ridiculous, really. I don't drink wine but maybe I should start.

Bonach It must be so great to just be able to take off to Italy and Switzerland. I'm jealous.

I hope you all have a great Saturday. BBL

Mo, you are 10X beautiful today!! I was up this morning, but puppy gets pee priority lol! After my shower I got too busy to get online.
No one here would complain about my being online. One nice thing about being retired :). You just reminded me that I am out of Sangria!!

I just got back from my mani/pedi. I love getting my feet & hands massaged! I have a fave. gal and was lucky she was there.

Carol, PARTY! What fun! I hope you can relax and chill a bit before it starts :)

Waving at Barbara,LynnD,Jodi,Bonachi & JustLin~~~

Lynn D said...

Carol party party party! Have fun, relax and enjoy it!

Dianne/Denver said...

CAROL: Happy Birthday to you and your dad. I hope you are having a wonderful time right now. I wish I was turning 50....you are just a baby......

MO: You are so beautiful and lovely this morning. I guess I should repeat it for every time you were first, second, etc. You get my drift...just scrumptious.
Sounds like you have a busy day today.

I couldn't sleep so I am pretending to be TINA AND ZONA and just got up a couple of hours ago. The sun was out by the time I fell asleep. I hate when that happens.

Dianne/Denver said...

SACBARB: Very cute blog and I agree with hiding the wine and get a wireless computer....hide that with the wine. Did you get my email the other day?

LYNN; I am picturing you flying through your house with your Mighty Mouse shirt and cape on. Maybe when you take it off it will be a sign for you to rest...you know that mental telepathy thing....:)

MARY: You should NEVER run out of your wine. What if you do and you have foot surgery and can't get out to get your stash? Of course, that is what friends are for....right?

JODI: How is your husband feeling today? I hope he is still okay. Maybe just some small aches and pains from yesterday.

J/L; How the heck are you? What have you been up too? Kids still living with you? You never talk about puzzle and tuna casserole anymore....still doing those nights from time to time?

Guess I had better get dressed or should I just stay in my PJ's because it is almost night again....hmmmm

bonachichi said...

Just a quick stop before taking a snooze... J/Lin, it's a little give-and-take traveling for work, but yes, I like it.

DeeDee, I need you to write me a note to take to work tomorrow (it's Sunday here). Please tell the playground bullies not to tease me because I fell for the airplane prank you posted. If you could get them to stop teasing me about my shoes, that would be nice, too.

Mary/MI said...

Diane no wine? perish the thought! I always keep a healthy stock around. Sangria is more of a fruity fun drink.

East Bay J said...

Hi hooters!

I loved the blog today! Cracks me up! Thanx for sharing SB!

Congrats on being so fierce and gorgoeus today MO!

Waving a tired wing at everyone, super busy day and topped it off with a vigorous swim.

Tina~in_ut said...

shhhhhhh...quiet~ happy birthday, carol~ shhhhhh.....keep it down....she's hung over~ :D

(whispering)
Sackie~ funny blog...thanks for sending it~ I can just see you throwing your box of wine at your kids~ :)~

I'm off to bed~ the invalid needs to git her butt back on her farm~ ijs~

sacBarb said...

Tina, I would NEVER waste my box-o-wine by throwing it at the kids. I have heavier and sharper objects for that.

Di, Yes I got your email. Thanks so much. :)

Carol, I hope you had a great time at your party. It's Sunday in NJ, so a very happy birthday to you. ♥

Good night Owls. I am going to bed early tonight. I hope you all have a good Sunday.

night.owls.sb said...

Hi Everyone..

The Party was awesome.. I could not have ask for anything more.. Turning 50 as been one of the best experience's of my Life..

I am finally off to bed..

♥♥

Jodi said...

CAROL - Glad your party was a hit!! Can't wait to see pics and a flip or two ♥

BARB - lmbo!! They'll have to drag me away kicking and screaming ♥

Paul is fine. His insurance agent called when he was at Jake's tournament, so hopefully he will be able to fax his insurance info to the Sheriff's office today.

Wishing everyone a peaceful Sunday!!

Bebbilane said...

Mo: Did you have fun at the Twins Day Festival?

Bebbilane said...

Carol, So glad the party was awesome!

Bonachichi: It does sound fun to travel like you do. LOL about your comment to DeeDee.

DeeDee: I need a note too..about my bosses teasing me about my shoes..OKAY, so I went to work one day with two different shoes on, get over it...I mean, gosh..it was a boo boo..blame it on old eyes! :)

Okay..off to have my Sunday...take care all and have a great day!
