What's New Tuesday!

 hi joyce!! just wanted to wish you the best for your surgery tomorrow!! hope all goes well for you and will keep you in my thoughts and prayers!!!

hugs and love

Joyce, you are in my prayers for your surgery tomorrow. I pray that things go well and that God keeps you and yours in the circle of His loving and healing arms and brings peace to you. I also pray for a speedy and pain free recovery. For the medical staff I pray for knowledge, understanding and compassion. We will be waiting to hear from you to know how you are doing.  

Good wishes and prayers for your surgery tomorrow, Joyce. We are headed for New England on 9-20 for a week or ten days so probably won't be able to stop and
see you.... but we'll meet up in Frankenmuth so that's good.

Sending hugs,
Pat R.

Good luck Joyce!

Good Morning Eileen and all,

Well, back to work for me today after 2 weeks off. Wah....I am a whiner today! I am up early so I can get there early as I know there will be tons and tons to do.

Beth and I went to the Thrift Store 1/2 off sale yesterday morning. There was a line clear across the parking lot! Got some good stuff! Both of us. Fun to see Beth get clothes too as she used to never want to do thrift store stuff. The best part.....drum roll please....I bought 3 pairs of size 5-6 jeans!!!! I don't think I wore a 5-6 even in high school! Whoo hoo! Very fun!

Tom and I went to our Labor Day Symphony in the Park last night. Was pretty chilly out but we had a good time. It always makes me a little sad as it is our last "tradition" of the summer.

I am going to go up to the dreaded treadmill in a few. Haven't done it this early in the am for the past 2 weeks.

Well, have a good day all and I hope we hear from our girls. Still thinking and praying for them and for all of you with troubles and heavy decisions on your minds.

Cheryl

also today i will be calling on the apartment we looked at saturday morning!!!!!!! hope its still available!!!!! we are so excited on moving out of here!!!!!!! will let you know on this also later on!!

ricks pinched nerve flared up uesterday moring and he was in bed all day yesterday and last night. its still killing him today but he did go to work!! poor baby...i really feel bad for him when its like that!!! his boss still hasn't given him his health insurance!!! claims its because his pinched nerve is the reason!!!! so what!!!!!!!! he still needs his health insurance for the future!!!!! rick said he is going to talk to his boss againon getting it!!! makes me so mad his boss is holding off on getting it for him!!!!!!!

well i worked all weekend and man i was so tired last night i crashed before 9 pm and slept til 630 this morning!!!! i ached head to foot mainly foot!!!! this morning its the tail bone!!! why??? i haven't been sitting at all!!!!!! weird huh??

doing some much needed laundry this morning and then i am taking a long hot shower!!!!!!!!!! i know i need one big time!!! with all the "guests" here over the weekend i didn't dare take a shower and have the bathroom being "used" so again it will be nice to get out of here!!!!!! then i can even take a long hot bath!!!! wooohoooo (tub here is broke in the bath department so its shower only) bandit needs a bath also so might give him one tomorrow...maybe today not sure yet.

i guess my sister IM rick saturday while i was at work and he said to her that i disowned her...she asked why what did she do now....he said he wasn't getting into it but he did say my mom was mad at her also over what i am upset with her at. guess she has no idea what i am mad or upset about....grrrrr how stupid can she be??? i am sure lori told her all about court and all so she should know!!!!

saturday we went to the pig roast at the neighbors had a good time there....rick looked at me and told me i was sooooo sexy looking!!!! not sure why he thought that...i had my green and white striped top on and my jean capri pants on...nothing different than usual....but i loved the compliment he gave me!!! all i can say is it was a great weekend in "our" world here!!! ;)

not sure what all happened here while i was at work but i guess all holy hell broke out between rick and his mom....he was just nasty at times with her when i got home...i know it had something to do with money again and he is just sick of hearing about it...its a never ending story with her and no money to pay bills...also he is still upset over her taking his money he had saved to move to the carolinas a couple years ago!!! i think that is the main reason he is fighting with her...he wants to move there so bad...i told him after my mom passes away we can move any place he wants to...being in ohio is far enough away from her as it is right now...mom is 87 and she doesn't like me being so far away...4 1/2 hours is far away to her....lol...anyhow if we get this apartment and if i can make it to frankenmuth GTG i am going to ask mom to come back here for a visit with us for a couple weeks or so. i know she will like it here alot!!!

looking at the weather channel right now and seeing the flooding in NO so sad...glad it wasn't any worse tho!!! happy that debbie is safe!!! hope all the ones in the path of the new storm will also be safe!!! seems like the storms are all lining up one after the other now!!! wow!!

i know i am rattling on here so gonna shut the blow hole and get some things done around here while waiting for the ho****er to heat up for my shower....long hot shower awaits me soon!!! woohoooo hope you all have a great day and know i am reading the posts just not remembering who said what...i suffer from CRS ya know!!!! but i am thinking of you all and happy for all the wow moments!!! aren't they exciting!!!!! it just keeps getting better and better!!!!!!! hope all are safe and you know who i mean...so with that i am saying TTFN....(ta ta for now)

Hey y'all, 

I'm up early this day too after some anxious dreams about work.  We have a major budget deficit this year and I have some responsibilities piling up that I must deal with before my surgery in October.  I thank my subconscious for pointing me in the right direction.

Several months ago I moved everything out of the overstuffed living/dining area into my spare room to do some ceiling painting and floor refinishing.  Everything that didn't make it back into the other rooms has been collecting dust in the spare room.  So yesterday was spent sorting, packing and dusting in there.  Didn't finish but I'll keep plugging away this week after work.  Today my eyes and nose have some major allergy issues from all that dust as well as the pollen/leaf mold in my little canyon.  But it feels good to finally tackle this project.

The dog needs a bath and I need some groceries and the house insurance premium is due today.  Life goes on and isn't that wonderful?  The alternative would not be.
 Keep juggling y'all but more importantly keep smiling.
Much love, Carmel Valley Linda

Good morning all,

The SIL is being a $#^%$^&*$^#.
I thought he & my hubby were going to get into it yesterday....yikes!!   The situation at my daughters house is stressing me big time. The SIL thinks all is well and wants everything to return to normal. My daughter wants him to give her lots of space!!!  His mom picked up the girls sunday afternoon and he brought them back monday in time for dinner.  My daughter was fine until he walked in acting like he still  lives there and left all the girls stuff in the truck waiting for someone else to go get it.....then the stress level zoomed.  He got all pi$$y because my husband was cleaning out the back shed to make room for the pool & supplies and girls outdoor toys.  He doesn't want anyone especially us to help our daughter, thinks then she'll miss him and want him to move back in.  She told him that since there was still garbage in there from years ago (boxes, old storm windows & screens) and the floor is rotting in the front because the doors wouldn't close and fell off... that she asked her dad to get the stuff out of there so it can go in the garbage this week.  He said he'd take care of it next week.. so then he comes in slamming doors. DH plans to replace the rotten floor board in the front and get new doors on the shed before the weather turns wet. Finally the SIL left in a huff.

With running back  & forth to my daughers my eating is crazy, I know I'm not eating enough but just can't seem to get a handle on eating at normal times.  I have been managing to get breakfast in every day  but lunch is usually skipped and dinner is whenever. 

Please say some prayers for my girls.

Hugs, Paulette
