Happy father's day to all the dad's out there. My dad has been deceased about 15 years now and there are still times i wish i could tell him thins.  He wasnt the 'daddy' type but did the best he could.  The man had no clue what to do with 2 female kids.. or basically kids in eneral lol. 
Well no plans for me today, other than maybe a lil laundry and of course the sofa :)

Happy Fathers Day to all the dads around.  Hope my boys remember they have a Dad!!!

I am like you Liz.  I lost mine in 1971 at the tender age of 19 and my first semester in college.  I still miss him and know he would and will guide me through the decisions I am struggling with now.

He was a great Dad.  He and Mom knew how to support us.  The were boosters for everything and always around.

I think I may be turning a corner with the upper respiratory stuff.  I slept when we got home from RNS and then all night. Unlike you, I ditched the meds the doc sent, they were not working and went back to my sudafed and cough syrup.

Gonna stay quiet today.  Tom is going to smoke some meat for the week.  We are trying some new stuff to see if it can replace some of the stuff I am tired of.  Need variety.  He is doing some ribs and kabobs.   We will see.

Have a great one

I'm having trouble sleeping to. Ended up on the recliner all night. Sorry I don't have any ambien to send you! Crazy day at work yesterday, busy till past closing. Bummed I miss R&S, sounds like soooo many were there and I would loved to have given Danni a big last hug. Hope Liz is feeling better soon too!!

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY to all the Dad's,Bonus Dads, Granpas, and Dads to for legged children!! My Dad died about six years ago and we had really just finally gotten to know each other. My parents were divorced when I was 5 and he took my oldest brother and sister(the evil one!) to live with him in Tenn. I only saw him once every year or two till I started college, but it wasn't till I got out on  my own that I really got to know him. Brilliant man great sense of humor and unknown till 3 yrs before he died terribly bi-polar! We had an odd relationship,but no regrets and no unfinished business.

Going to church this morning with Mom. I'm not really in the mood but it means a lot to her so... Then out to the nursing home to see Nancy. The prayer warriors must be working overtime!! Nancy sat up in bed yesterday, wanted a hamburger, took 2 trips to the garden w/the hospice worker and asked to go to church services this morning?? They told us she would not make it through the day friday!! The Lord has other plans for her I guess.

Sorry about the novel,
Meggie

Good morning.  Glad to see your still surviving Liz.  I know having pneumonia is really crummy.  I hope at some point you sleep.  Keep resting though so you'll be ready for Steph's BBQ in July.  Are you working anymore in Conroe?

We're going to SS and church today, then going out to lunch w/ my sister's family and mom and step dad.  My sister wants us to come eat BBQ chicken for dinner.  

I guess I've rested up...came home after my last day of work Thursday at 5:15 or so and haven't left the house...I am about ready to get out again.  I know I have a busy week ahead w/ one more day of work and leaving for vacation.

Prayers for all who need them.  Prayers for Meg's friend Nancy.  Prayers for Liz to get better and SLEEP!

Have a great Father's Day...guess I better call mine.

Karla

Karla, I'm so jealous of your vacation.  We used to go to Port Aransas/Rockport every spring break for vacation.  I just love doing absolutely nothing but fishing for a whole week.  I know you'll have a great time.

Don't be jealous...we usually have a blast, but remember...will have FIVE (5) teens ages 14-19 in tow...most of them are a little rambunctious at times, most especially when in a group together!

I probably won't fish, but the guys may...I plan on reading books, laying on the beach and playing in the surf...I love the beach, just not the nasty feel of sand on me when I'm done...my MIL had a house at Bolivar, but sold it a few years ago.  I always enjoyed going there.  When I was a little girl we lived 20 minutes from Surfside beach and went often with my mom and dad.  The last day of school they would load us up when it was out and we would go to the beach and have weinee roasts.  Fond memories.
