Well it is Sunday and no one has said a peep....im too busy to stay here for too long....washing spring and summer clothes that have been packed away....trying to get it all done so i can get the house in some sort of order and get the monthly bills all paid.
We have finally decided that we wont have Joes brother here while we are gone ...we dont want to have a 400 dollar electric bill for the next two months. ....will be shutting off the frig, water heater and put the heater on emergency heat only..or turn it off and only run the infrared heater ....anyway will see. might not use anything...if we turn off the water and drain the pipes and everything  it shouldnt be any problem should it?? nothing should bust if there isnt anything in the pipes should it???
anyway the direct tv said we could turn off the their service and not have to pay while we are gosohopefully all of this will keep us from having to worry about bills. i

well got to get busy and see what size suitcases i can take....we can each check one large bag wt 50 pounds and certain size so have to measure them....if i can get everything in one and maybe put another one inside the one so i will have an empty one to be able to bring back things for everyone in the other one lol ....

got to go...busy busy busy....

Hi Jan, Sorry I have been gone lately but life has been really mean to me lately. I am trying to get on track. I still can't believe you are leaving and sold the trailer. I know you have to do what you have to do in your life but sure feels like I am losing you forever. I can't imagine coming to Branson anymore knowing you won't be there. My brother is coming from Texas to visit this year and I plan on taking him to Branson and so wanted him to meet you and Joe. Not trying to make you feel bad I really am happy for you to get to do something that is important to you and Joe. I really want you to know how much I appreciate your friendship. You have been a great friend.

Hubby has been working alot of 12 hour days. He worked 8 today. seems we done get much weekends off anymore. Thank God! this is his last winter. His last day if June 30th.

When do you leave?

Hugs
Barbara

Barbara dont rush me off too fast , lol we think we will like it but you never know and we will be back by The first of April anyway and even if we love it and want to move we will have a lot to do to get there....like sell the house, and sell all of the contents. except just my personal sentimental stuff.
and clothes lol and might sell most of them too . lol
anyway we might still be here and i will still be able to talk to you as much as i do now on the computer. .....i hope i am still a good friend ...glad that your hubby is getting to retire soon.

Hi, Mama Jan & MO Peeps:

It's been a good weekend.  Had a great deep tissue massage yesterday.  The owner of Megan's Oasis usually does my massages but she's been having a lot of pain in her thumbs so I went one of her employees.  This woman was wonderful.  I've been having a lot of pain in my hips again.  She did some type of Chinese late rial leg stretches on my legs and hips.  The first 10 minutes were painful but then it was wonderful!  She only charges 45/hour.  I'm going to start going back once a month.  I hadn't been in well over 6 months and I forgotten how much better I feel after a deep tissue massage.  This woman also used hot rocks after wards, she was GREAT!!  I'm wondering if I'd hurt Megan's feeling if I asked for her employee again?  Megan is also my neighbor.  Will see how it goes next month.  I did tell Megan I wanted that Chinese stuff done again.  The massage therapist told me it felt like bone on bone when she pressed on my hips.  Wouldn't surprise me at all.  It is so painful.  She showed me some stretches I can do at home and/or my husband or Jake can do on my legs which would help me.  She also said heat is my friend so I should be taking long hot baths.  I take showers but guess if it'll help my pain, then hot baths it will be!!

Played Bunko last night.  Haven't played in years and had forgotten how much I enjoy it.  Did NOT have one Bunko but was still fun!  Got up this morning and enjoyed church service.  Came home and hubby made lunch then we went out to dinner with some classmates.  One of our classmates, Pete, is a missionary in the Philippines and he and his wife and children were in town.  So some of us met for dinner.  It was nice to see all of them and great to see Pete and meet his wife & children.  He just got married 7 years ago.  He and his wife have adopted 2 children who are now 6 and 3 years old.  His wife is the same age as we are.  (I'm 48) I can't imagine having children that age when I'm this age! lol 

My class at JCCC was suppose to start last Thursday but they canceled it due to the snow.  I'm glad because I found Saturday at the bunko party that I need a textbook for the course!  I had already bought Microsoft Office 2010 but had NO idea about the textbook!  I'll probably have to buy it new but that's the price I pay for not paying attention!  Just hoping the Bookstore at the college has it.  I'll just go in an hour early tomorrow and purchase it before my class starts at 12:30.  I'm really looking forward to it.  The last class I took as LOTUS 123.  How many of you remember that one? It was the "Excel" of the day about 18 years ago! lol

Mama Jan - I can feel your excitement thru the computer when you write about getting ready for you adventure!  It's an exciting time in your life.  Will pray the Lord protects you and blesses your trip!!  Can't wait to hear, read and see all about it!  I'm with Barb though, will be said to see you go!!  But with the Internet and Skype we can still "see and talk" to you.  Not the same as those hugs though!  Maybe a bunch of us girls can plan a trip to come see you guys - once you get settled of course!  :)

Barbara - What a pleasant surprise to see your smiling face on the board this evening!!  I'm praying for you my friend!  Maybe we could meet one day after my class on Tuesday or Thursday for a late lunch/early supper?  Would be great to see you!  So your hubby is going to retire this year?  That's great!  It'll be a new chapter in your life.

Jo - will continue to pray for Greg.  I can imagine he is discouraged but hopefully he's learned his lesson and this will help him in the long run.  He's blessed to have you and your husband to be there for him!

Mo Peeps - come out, come out where ever you are!!  I've been trying to post more often.  This board was so lively a few years ago.  Let's try to "jump start" it again!  

Hope all of you have a GREAT week!

Thanks Debbie for praying for Greg.  He needs all the prayers he can get.  If this doesn't make him realize alcohol is not the way to go after all he's been thru since June, he never will.

The GF, Barbara, needs prayer too.  She is lazy and so stubborn.  I've gotten to know her much better since last June, and I see her in a different light.  Nice girl, but wants to control him.  She has gained a tremendous amount of weight, but says she doesn't eat.....HA!!  She makes comments that we're the same size and that really makes me angry but guess it shouldn't.  She has serious spending habits she needs to break.

Hi Jo isnt it agrivating for someone to think they are the same size as you like that....i have a friend down here that is always saying that and i have seen the size in her clothes and they are 16s. now nothing wrong if that is your size but a size 10 and a 16 arent the same size...and shouldnt look that way to the size 16th lol i guess it is a coping thing....

well looks like mondays post isnt going to get any rep[ies...
