This place is way too quiet lately

Sylvie, My Mom passed away and I have been busy dealing with all of the stuff that happens after a loved one passes. I am also having really bad neck pain and the muscle relaxers are not helping. Between these things I feel consumed. I will be glad when life returns to noraml and the sun starts to shine everyday.

ah Julie, I think the only words that encapsulate your past few days/weeks = that sucks.

I hope things get better for you and your family.

Sylvie.....
   Good late morning! I have peeped in here a few  times lately & it was toooooo quiet! Whats the deal? Where's Tia, I havent seen her here in awhile?
    Life here on the Eastern Shore is going pretty good. My daughter re-injured her shoulder so we have been in the ER, surgeons offices, and various other medical offices hoping to get her approved for surgery.
My youngest daughter finally came all the way out of the closet....yes, she is 14 & gay. It used to bother me, but now, I love her anyways. She finally told my mother which was horrible.......my mother doesnt believe that a person can be any other way than straight. She still loves my daughter but feels as if  I encourage her to be gay! C'mon, I dont encourage anyone to be gay! I just support their choices! Geez! Me, well, life is good. My hubby bought me my dream car.....a PT Cruiser! I picked it up yesterday! I <3 it!!!!! And my scale has finally been pretty stable....164ish! I am happy with that. Actually, I am not trying to lose anymore. I am happy where I am & I look healthy.....I think if I were to loose more, I would start looking sick.
Wow.....I hope that brightened your day! LOL.....at least it isnt so quiet now!
~hugs~

I"m so glad to hear you love your Crusier.  I"m looking at an HHR for my next car...

The HHR's are nice, but they couldnt replace my love for the PT Cruiser........I looked at a few HHR's but just couldnt sway their way! My hubby liked them better, but I said " This is MY car, buy yourself an HHR!" LOL

Yep!  I agree.... you shoudl get what YOU want... good for you!

OH Heather, I can fully understand where you are coming from. I can remember when my Brother came out. It was very hard for many to accept but I feel people are people and they need to be loved and accepted no matter what. I hope your daughters shoulder gets better soon. Great news for the car and for you and the scale. Take care and love and embrace your daughter.

 

                                                                                                                Love,

                                                                                                                      Julie

Wow, a lot going on! You should be proud of your daughter. Many people don't have that sort of courage their entire lifetime and she's got it at 14. Just you watch, she'll do great thigns, gay or not :-)

Congrats on the PT, I bought one in 2002,,, then they announced the GT would be out in 2003,, so I traded up in July,, (4th and 5th to be exact, Yes it took two days to get the deal I wanted) 2003 for my GT. It has changed quite a bit since then, it is pretty quick, it ran 21.12 seconds at 115mph  a while back, I plan on getting a 11 second run this year, still a daily driver. It is a car I will have until it leaves by some real bad situation.

Kudos to you Heather for the fabulous and supporting way you handled the "coming out" of your daughter. If more people, especially parents would learn to love and accept their children for who they are it would be a giant step for all mankind! Congrats on reaching a weight that you are comfortable with.           Getting a new car is always exciting, especially such a cute one like the PT Cruiser. Is that the convertible ?  Drive it safely and in good health. And last but not least, it sounds like you are loved by a wonderful man, who supports and respects you. You've done good kid! Take care and stay well, Leslie:)
