Good Morning from MIchigan!
Good Morning Off friends!
Another beautiful autumn day on tap here in Owosso! I am going to get out on my bike with my camera and find some good pictures!
Oh the joys of being a nonsleeper! I got my normal one hr of sleep! I am in a nonsleep mode right now. I do relax in bed and do get a most helpful rest so I feel fine Just don't sleep!
I am back to cleaning mode this week, I am still working on getting my house back in real good shape after neglecting it for since mom died, Now I need to start cleaning, I did all the sorting purging getting rid of clutter you know the fun stuff just simply need to give a though cleaning to the entire house even gonna do carpets next week,
My Life seems so tame and easy compared to the difficulties some of you are going through with health issues living situations money problems and other things, I think of you ladies often and pray daily for each of you though I don't name you individually in my post, The Man upstairs knows who I mean.
Have a great Tuesday everyone!!!
Good Morning Jo and OFF,
Jo, I'm coming to Michigan on the 16th, and staying till the 23rd. Would love to meet up with you for a visit like I have in the past. I can show you pics of my Munchkins, and we can catch up. I'm bringing Mom this time. She hasn't met my grandson, Frankie, who was born back in May. I'll call you. I have a phone number with an area code of 989. Let me know if that is right.
Anywho, I spent yesterday cleaning my apartment. Dusted, Swiffered living room floor. Swept, mopped kitchen floor. Scrubbed cabinets, bathroom sink and toilet. Also sucked up a ton of dog hair.
When I got my car back, I went to the lab and then the hematologist's. My Coumadin level is still not quite right. Also, showed the nurse a hug bruise on my inner calf. It's almost the size of a dinner plate. It's healing, but ugly as sin. She went and got the doctor. He told me to put warm compresses on it.
After that, I went to Hair Cuttery and got my hair cut and eyebrows waxed. I posted a pic on my Facebook Timeline. If we aren't already Facebook friends, my name is Patricia Anne Reilly. Would love to Friend anyone here. Just let me know in a message you are from OFF.
Last night, I went to Bible study. We are studying James, in a study by Beth Moore. I love her studies. Very insightful and refreshing.
Today has be heading to my AA meeting, then running some errands, then off to do afternoon volunteer work.
Still thinking of Eileen and her knee surgery. Also, Connie and all that she is dealing with. Nan and Nancy with their health battles.
Carolyn, I meant to tell you I can proudly say I have two kids who have a great work ethic. They had jobs in restaurants with my brother as manager, and he was tougher on them than the regular employees. My older son sometimes works from dawn to midnight in his executive position. My daughter is taking this year off to stay home with the babies. She works long hours with her teaching position when she is working, plus keeps her home spotless, and spends loads of quality time with the Munchkins when she is working. I keep praying for my younger son. He is battling depression, and working on recovering from the drugs and alcohol abuse.
Sorry this is so freaking long peeps.
Love to all.
Trish

Seek always to do some good, somewhere. Every man has to seek in his own way to realize his true worth. You must give some time to your fellow man. For remember, you don't live in a world all your own. Your brothers are here too.

Connie,
I know there are many great kids out there who have gotten good values from their parents. I know their are many kids *****ally want to succeed in school and make a difference in this country.
But I also believe that a bunch just don't give a darn. And I am soooo very afraid they will be running this country in the future.
Our military is being gutted of it's seasoned veterans. They are being forced out. Like---as their last duty stations they are being told they will have to go to some place way far away, usually unaccompanied. One guy here was supposedly undeployable because of his wife's very serious medical condition. They are sending him to Afghanistan, he is retiring instead. Industry is the same thing. Downsize, get ride of experienced folks, replace them with newbee's with very little training.
Let's face it. My great grandkids generation is pretty much doomed!!
Sorry, I have GOT to stop being so political! This is not the place!

Carolyn....everything you are saying is so true. It really is a sad state of affairs we are in now. I keep praying that things will get turned around again.
It is awful how the seasoned veterans are being treated. All they have done is defend our country. Losing them is a tragedy!! I worry so much about our future!!
Write what you feel.....that is why we are here!!
Love and hugs....connie d

Good mornin' ya'll.
I MUST finish my colorful afghan today so I can do my packing and prep for my trip to OR. Get groceries so my poor DH doesn't starve while I am gone and he doesn't have to bug our son to get him stuff.
Waiting on schedule from our daughter on where I have to have our granddaughter and when. She has two concerts to go to while I'm there and our daughter is at her conference. Luckily I don't have to take her to the Rose Garden and drop her off. She will be seeing Carrie Underwood and Justin Bieber.
Daughter's ex wants his $ this week. He plans on flying to where she will be at her conference to spy on her. She has the half a million to give to him, but she doesn't have to give it to him for 30 days. He is upset cause she told the kids how much the settlement is. He is already saying how poor he is cause our daughter left and he has no job. She wants them to know he has $564,000 she has to pay back to her company, her take home pay is $8000 a month and she also has to pay him $4300 of that. They can go to him for spending money!!
I hope everyone is feeling better. I hope everyone is controlling their weight.
Everyone have a fantabulous day!

Hi Jo and my OFF family:
Rainy and 56 here in Indiana. I'm still stuck in the hospital, waiting for insurance to make up its mind on the rehab center or just send me home. At this point, I'd be just as happy to go home, even though I'm not ready there. But, that said, they are going to have to provide home health and/or home therapy for awhile. Woulda done better at the rehab center.
Watched the Bears-Cowboys game last night and the Bears won, so I was happy ... went to bed early because there was no reason to stay up. Waiting now for a pain pill. My life is so exciting.
Anyway, have a good day, everyone. Nothing else going on.

Good morning Jo and everyone.....
I don't know why I woke up so early today. I had hoped to sleep in!! Maybe I will get a nap later.
Jo....nice to see you start the thread today. Enjoy your day of picture taking. I am sure they will be beautiful pics! Sounds like you are really doing some deep cleaning. Good for you!! I love a clean and fresh home!! Thank you for keeping us in your prayers!
Trish.....I did see your pic on Facebook. I think you look great. Love the new hair color it looks good on you!
Today is cleaning day but I think I am waiting until tomorrow. I am still in a lot of pain today. I am supposed to go pick up my BFF Pam this afternoon. Her MS is still so bad. We are going to visit with her mom who is now in Hospice. The cancer has spread and she doesn't have much more time now. It is all so sad. Then there is me worried about where I live. It makes me feel bad about myself when Pam's mom is suffering and dying! So many worse things in this world. I need to remember that!!
Any of you that aren't already friends of mine on Facebook feel free to friend me if you want. Leave a message as to how I know you. I have pics from my daughters wedding posted on there if you are interested. Connie Douvier. HUGS!!!!
I have meds to go fill for my sister and other things to get done. I best get started.
Wishing you all a wonderful day!! Prayers for so many in need.
Much love and many hugs 
to you all....connie d

Hi There,
Im Playing Mommy todayHave to pick up my five yr old cousin from Kindergarten at 3pm today. Got to love it!!!!!
it is gloomy here today and muggy. I hope it rains!!!!!
Today it is my husbands birthday. he is 67!!!!! man that man is getting old. Or am I getting up there also..... HMMMM I wonder.....
I am sort of feeling better. I guess it was just getting used to taking the prednisone. I still dont like it. I feel dry inside with it.
Well back to Amazon to buy some birthday gifts. Still waiting for my new Dell to come!!!!! Might be three more weeks.
