Becky's Log |
Hi, I'm Becky. Welcome to my Blog. I'm just a little ol' country girl from Michigan. I have 2 sons (Robert and Dustin), 2 daughters (Renee and Jennifer), a mom (GMa), a brother (Paul) and a wonderful boyfriend (Jim) who drags me all over the country. We live in Las Vegas, but we're staying in Louisville, Kentucky these days. Jim's on a another mission. So watch your mouth. Be nice. Remember, "You can't eat your cake and lay in it too". And unlike little bo peep, don't eat all your sheep. haha. AND....enter something in my blog! Visit my site http://www.lvdarlings.com some time. Thats where I bought this outfit. |

10/21/2006 03:45:36 Jim I gotta say something good about my Dad | Sat |||||||||||||||||||
Dad built himself a beautiful house. Dad said he built it for us. He left his life insurance to his wife. That was the right thing to do. Dad burned us, though. -Dad burned Sonny on the house that was paid off with an accident settlement. The money should have been put in a trust, but instead, it paid off the shack we grew up in (with 5 acres of land). He got Sonny to Quit Claim to him after Sonny turned 21. In effect, he used the money from Sonny's accident settlement to build the house above. Sonny felt he didn't deserve the house, may be, may be not, but it was rightfull his. Dad took advantage of Sonny's feelings on this. He didn't even put Sonny's name on the new house as a coowner. -Dad burned Linda with her newborn baby by kicking her out. -Dad burned me by lying to me, threatening to sue me during the worst time in my life and talking behind my back. I went on to ignore him for years. Then he borrowed on it to build himself a ice cream shop in a failing mall. When he lost his house and ice cream shop: -He went on to live in his wife's son house. -He went on to talk about his will which he never filed. -He went on to talk about his big life insurance policy for Sonny, which he fumbled. I realize none of the above sounds good...but good did come out of Dad Dad gave me a goal. He was my mentor is a non-traditional way. As a kid, I swore I would never pick up his bad traits. I'm the only one to finish college, work my way up to having my own corporation. I've had two houses for over 21 years. I didn't get my inspiration from Dad. I got it from my Step-Dad who was a great guy. My Step Dad and my Mom were my best friends in this life. Dad was ripped off in life, I suppose. He never quite made anything of himself. I hope he gets a chance to do-it-all-over. Its possible, I suppose. |
10/20/2006 18:08:54 Jim Jennifer and Dustin are staying over. | Fri |||||||||||||||||||
We tried to play frisbee golf at Freedom Park, but someone rented the public park again. We couldn't even feed the ducks. So sad people can rent a park and charge admission. Right now, we're cooking Stuffed peppers with a side of meatloaf...its a meat lover's night in! |
10/19/2006 18:11:36 Jim Saw a CPA today | Thu |||||||||||||||||||

10/19/2006 09:10:16 Jim Turned the heat on for the 1st time | Thu |||||||||||||||||||
The outdoor thermometer said 44 degrees! wow
|
10/17/2006 20:44:40 Jim Beckyism: Doc Holiday died from Psoriasis | Tue |||||||||||||||||||
I think she meant cirrhosis, but I think he died from tuberculosis. |
10/15/2006 12:56:06 Jim Its nice that he is receiving and not deceiving | Sun |||||||||||||||||||
Jennifer said that about Jonathon. Looking confused, I asked her "Do you mean he we won't be receiving your Grand mom's help because he's getting a job, and he's not lying about getting a job?". She said, "No, I don't know what that means. Ask Grandma.". I asked her, "Does it mean he's receiving Christ's ghost or something religious like that?". She said, "No, he's receiving information, I guess.". I said, "So, he's receiving information about a job, and not lying to them?". I know...I'm trying to make sense out of things that don't make sense. A talent I have got to learned is how to look like I'm listening, when I'm not. |
10/09/2006 09:54:40 Jim Dustin is his mothers opposite. Why? | Mon |||||||||||||||||||
While at the mall, Dustin did and said things that amazed me: - He told me how I could get away with not working while working at a job He said, scribble some stuff on a paper, then go to sleep on it. I said, why would you think like that? Why wouldn't you just do your job? - He pushed me I pulled him, he fell down. Then I scolded him about pushing, poking, and hitting things. - He said, if I knew karate, I could flip you. I told him nope. You're too small. The bigger animal usually wins a fight. I asked him, why would want to hurt me? He said, I just said it because I could. I said WHY? I've taken you to the Forum Shops, a park, bought you drinks, driven you up the Strip. I took you to a mountainside and a raginig desert wash today. He said, I don't know. I just said it. I don't understand why he thinks like he does. He didn't get it from you Becky. You are a hard worker, you are honest and you never hurt things. He seems to be your opposite. Wow. |
10/08/2006 21:51:24 Jim Dinner at GMas, and it wasnt a battle cruiser eit | Sun |||||||||||||||||||
I really enjoyed the steak dinner with Paul, Gma, Renee, and your kid. It was nice. And its been a lot of fun talking to your GMa. I keep my promises, babe. We'll send Gma on a (battle) cruiser. If we do 2 loans for a days a five day week, we've reached my goals. I know you didn't say battle cruiser when you were talking about it. I misheard you. But, it was a funny thought! Send GMa on a Battle Cruise ship...Look Out World! haha If we can do that with loans, or (can make $2,000 in one week) we've reached one of my goals. My goal was to make more money than I could programming computers, and make it so the business could be passed along. If we can make $2k a week doing notaries, and you could handle the business with very little of my help, then I've done it!!! I'll have left a legacy. LVDude failed. The A/C precooler failed. |
10/08/2006 20:47:50 Jim I got up this morning, and Jennifer told me Becky | Sun |||||||||||||||||||
I asked her, how do you know that? She said Becky said she could use it to play games on. Becky said she didn't. Anyway, Jennifer said she didn't move it, and she did, because she unplugged it. To make matter worse, Dustin must have tried to fix it, by unplugging the cable modem and/or the router. At any rate, I had to reload the router, and make sure everything else worked. It took an hour. I'm really tired of fixing these computers after the kids leave. We're going to need what we have left. I'm tired of the lying too. |
10/08/2006 20:45:51 becky I had fun today | Sun |||||||||||||||||||
Hi Mom Thank you so much for dinner it was very good. I liked the exspression on your face when I gave you the flowers. Jim and I had a great time with talking to you tonight. It was a great having the kid's last night it was alot of fun going places. I love you Becky :) |

10/08/2006 20:39:57 Jim Taught Dustin to Shampoo Carpets | Sun |||||||||||||||||||
He'd spilled some cola on the carpet, but was just going to forget about it. I noticed the spot, and asked him about it. He said, well, I thought I'd get around to it later. Sheesh. I told him, if he let it dry, it would take Becky and me an hour to get the huge stain out. I told him, he could shampoo it out in five minutes...if he didn't want to be a slob. We got the shampooer out, and I showed him how to do it. He did more than his stain, he did Jennifer's stains too (which she denied making).. BTW - The couch couldn't look any nastier. Jennife must have spilled a coke on it...looks like half a coke. All I can say is...NASTY!!!! |
10/05/2006 01:28:58 Jim Heaven and Hell. All in 5 minutes | Thu |||||||||||||||||||
While we were travelling to your Mom's house for your birthday party, we stopped at a left turn light. We had the top down and your hair wasn't tied. The girl in the next car said, 'Honey, your hair is going to be in knots'. Then she tossed us a hair tie. What a sweetheart. In the car behind her was a family. The mother was crying, head in her husbands (the driver) chest. In back were two distraught looking kids. I wonder, how we can all live in this world, and yet have so many worlds between us. I saw generousity and dispair, 20 feet apart, at a stop light. |

10/02/2006 20:21:47 Jim Got BEQUICK Plates | Mon |||||||||||||||||||
Got the Mustang squared away (except for an oil change). Removed and repaired the drivers power seat. Purchased extra fuses and tools for $20. Got the Green Slip, and the plates "BEQUICK" ordered for $120. Got two extra keys made from Ford for $150. It pretty much took all day...sheesh. So far, I've learned a lot about the modern day engines just by using a manual, OBD II reader and some common sense. Oh, hahaha, also, getting $54 from LVDude. Thats kind of nice. Thanks everybody!!! |
09/30/2006 10:47:34 Jim I bought a OBD II software set yesterday | Sat |||||||||||||||||||
At Frys...now you may be wondering, What the heck is an OBD II? Well, it is the latest standard since 1996, for the plug that reads a cars ECR chip. I think I got that right. Its the same connection used at the smog check stations. The software it fascinating. |
09/30/2006 09:46:51 Jim Last night, I caught Dustin playing a bloody game | Sat |||||||||||||||||||
He got to the game through my site, which I told GMa, had safe links in it. And they are safe links. However, if a person has it in his heart to use the Search area for pictures of "Decapitated Heads", they'll find it. When I got my first dictionary The first word I looked up was "damn". It bothers me that Dustin looks for games that depict bloody destruction, death and senseless violence. Anyway, I caught him playing a game with a leg, that had blood running down it, and a stick rammed through it. I got upset. I asked him to show me how he got to that game. He closed the window, then started to shutdown the laptop. You came by, about the time I told Dustin to stop. He got up, and you sat down. You were going to show him how to show me how he got to where he was. Dustin kept saying I didn't do anything wrong. He started to run to the couch. I grabbed his head, and told him he was going home right now. He knew he'd done wrong and he was trying to hide it. I'm tired of him seeking out games like that, that eventually trash my PC's/laptops. I told him, the people who have it in their minds to spend the time to write games that depict senseless violence, don't think twice about adding a little malicious code to their games. Of course, Jennifer came by, and was familiar with the game. She said Robert showed it to him. So here's a summary of what happened: Dustin finds a sick game, I catch him, he denies it, you don't understand it, and Jennifer blames Robert for it. We've got so much to accomplish this month. Its hard to justify the time it takes to fix Dustin. It seems to me, within each of our hearts, there lives good and evil. Dustin's heart leans to evil. I'm not sure what to do about that. But it seems to me, that every time he comes over, he's going to do something that is either cruel, or excessively greedy. Its like, we're all at peace here and are happier when he's busy playing with his gameboy. |
10/01/2006 06:47:38 becky (Reply).Last night, I caught Dustin playing a bloody game | Sun |||||||||||||||||||
When I got my first dictionary, the first word I looked up was "sex"... Does that me a dirty minded little doggy? |
09/26/2006 18:54:51 Jim Bought a 1997 Mustang Convertible | Tue |||||||||||||||||||
Great deal at $6,900 out the door. This car runs GREAT! It gets great gas mileage and is super fun to drive. 98,000 miles on it, but these days, cars seem to run for quite a while. Wholesale Blue Book on it was $4,800, so we did good buying from a car lot with everything including a warranted. We're happy. Plus, its in Becky or my name, so, if I have a fatal asthma attack, she's got something now. I love her so much. Next thing on the agenda Get the things fluids up, fix a few minor problems, and title it. Its a weird situation I've got here, my truck is registered in Florida and the car is registered here. hmmm. We've got to check with a lawyer for Travel Notary Referral Services for Be Quick. Hopefully, I can just add a DBA to Cutlar Enterprises. That would be sweet. Then, we get business cards, and a yellow page add...should cost around $5,000 to get going, but in the end, we should be making 6 figures...at least thats the plan. I found a site that beats the heck out of my ad site (LVDude). Its in Yahoo. It sorts cars by year and type, and will list all the cars from a lots inventory...thats way better than what I've got. So, I guess that experiment was a year's effort down the tubes. Oh well, at least, I've done so much better than those other people who have been busting their ass on an 8 to 5 job for the last 6 years. I've actually shown a gain....the least amount of effort for the most amount of money is a formula that works. |
09/07/2006 19:51:29 Jim We took off for Erie | Thu |||||||||||||||||||
It was a real mess. We couldn't find out if we Dad's car was drivable or even transferrable. So, we booked a flight, room, and rental car for $1,800...way more than we could afford. The security at the gates had us remove our shoes, and wouldn't allow us to carry any kind of liquid in our luggage, not even toothpaste. I did pack some Albuterol...some how that got past them...but they did take my bic lighter. Along the way, and with all the walking, I almost passed out. A couple of nurses wanted to check me into their triag but I refused. Nicely enough, they gave me an albuterol inhaler, which was very gracious of them. I took valiums for the trip up, so sleep was off and on. It was rough though. |
