My Mantra is that I do not determine my success by the number hanging in my closet, nor will I let the scale determine that success either. . . It is through trial and error I will continue to grow and succeed. . . Laureen

George, I am so sorry to hear of your co worker. I feel so bad for those that commit suicide because the pain that they must be in to even think that is the only way out for them to take. They have to have such troubled souls. My heart and prayers go out to him and his family and friends as well as all of you co workers.
I can't believe that next week is Thanksgiving. The time has gone so fast that it is hard to believe that we are almost done with this year. Where in the world does the time go? It just speeds by the older you get. I remember hearing my Mom and Grandma how time flies and I always thought that no it didn't. Now I am older than my Mom was when she said it and now I know just what they meant.
Kayden is here and he is sleeping in bed with Grandpa. He was so tired and I fed him his formula but he kept rubbing his eyes but would he give in to sleep? Heck no. I went in the bedroom and Grandpa said that he would take him and see if he would go to sleep. I think he must be sleeping since Grandpa isn't talking and neither is Kayden. He is in such a good mood today. He started laughing as soon as he saw me today. Hmmm...is there something to that that I should be aware of? ha ha He is such a pleasant little guy. I told him that I missed him so much this week end. I always miss him when he isn't here. That isn't to say that I don't enjoy the peace and quiet because I most definitely do love that. But he brings such joy and love to this little home of ours.
I have to go to Wal Mart sometime today. Kayden loves to go there too. He and I walk around and Grandma talks to him all the time. He loves to see the people and the colors and such. We spend a long time in the store and it occupies Kayden. By the time we leave we are both ready for a rest. ha ha I told Bill one time that I can't wait until he talks and all the fun that we can have when we go to shop. But then again with that comes the "Can I have this, Grandma?". Oh well...such is life with a child and it has been a long time since I have had that one. Although with my nieces daughter is 11 and she is good at that too. I have gotten plenty of practice with her.
It is cold out today. It isn't going to get out of the mid to high 40's and I long for sun which is not here today. It is damp and cold to me so I know that my winter jacket is on for today. I got the jacket at a garage sale for $3 and it is so nice but the snaps at the wrist are tight. I have to unsnap them to take the jacket off. I am not use to that. Oh well....I guess I can't complain about that since it was only $3.
I better get going. I am sending love and hugs to all and prayers and good thoughts are being done for everyone. Have a wonderful day and hold fast to those you love.

No plans for Thanksgiving. I'll get a roasted chicken from Sam's Club and probably make some mashed potatoes or sweet potatoes and try to find some low sugar cranberry sauce. Cranberry sauce really makes Thanksgiving to me. I'm not making stuffing, because that's a real downfall with me. I could just eat stuffing and be happy, so I'm better off with nothing.
Sorry about your co-worker George. My cousin committed suicide in May, and it's devestating. No one can figure it out. He was a very successful attorney, had a long time girlfriend and lived a fun life. We'll never know, but as Laureen has said, he must have felt hopeless about something. It's so hard for those left behind.
Prayers going out for Bob, GrammyLew and everyone else that can use them.
