Saturday Happenings-What's Up?

Good Morning Family,

My heart is broken over what happened in Newtown, Connecticut yesterday.  My granddaughter, Isabel is in Kindergarten, and I can't comprehend what happened.  I sent all my kids texts that I love them.  Then, I sent my son, Chris, a text asking him to give my daughter and grandchildren bear hugs from me, and to tell them it was from me.  I want so badly to hug everyone in my family today.  

I have a busy day ahead of me.  First an AA meeting.  Then, a drop off at the Salvation Army store.  Then, to my sister's to pick up a vacuum cleaner she is giving me.  I also have to stop at the craft store to see if they have something I've been looking for for over a month.

When I get home, I must get back to the basement for more packing and sorting.  It seems like it never ends.  Argh.

I'm praying for both Nancys, the grandchildren struggling with cancer, and all those with pain and other health concerns.  

Love and Hugs,

Trish

Morning Trish...I am still in shock over this school shooting...so sad!!! Why take all the lives of those innocent children like that? WHY???????

Went outside last night to see the meteor shower but nothing happend that I could see. Night before was awesome to see!

Got a nice Christmas Bonus yesterday!!! Today we go shopping to see what we can buy with it...;-) First off is going to be haircuts for us both!!! Not sure what else we will come across that we really NEED.

Found the eviction notices all crumbled up on the ground yesterday that I had put on that tenants door. It is filed in court and now we are waiting for the court date. If he throws his summons away we automatically win and he is out! Sheriff comes to MAKE him get out. Not looking forward to going inside this apartment at all!!! Its like a landfil inside and stinks also!!!

So that is all my news. Not much huh? Just not feeling like doing anything since this mass shooting in CT. My heart is so sad. When the president came on tv yesterday to talk and he was wiping tears that really got to me and made me even more sad....I think this is the first time I felt this man WAS a president.

Thoughts and Prayers for ALL that need them....GOD Bless and keep those suffering close.

HUGS

Morning all,

I too am in shock over what happened yesterday!! How can someone do that??? My heart goes out to all the families! May God gather them all in his arms and give peace to those left behind. He's already gathered all the innocents that were taken yesterday. Yesterday I was wondering how I'm going to get Christmas for the kids then I turned on the TV and saw the news and my tiny little problem got put away! I am so blessed and thankful  for what God has given me!

Thoughts and prayers for all,

Debbie

Hi Trish and my OFF family:

Yes, that news yesterday was horrific. I don't know what's happening in the world. Too many crazies, too many guns. Sorry, I'm for gun control. No, I'm not sorry about that ... these crazy people have these guns and shouldn't. The 2nd Amendment was written in a time when the British took the guns away from the colonists and quartered soldiers in their homes. It's a different time now. We need to control guns to keep them away from the crazy people. That's all I'll say.

I had to do the front page last night and the stories I had to read just broke my heart. Everytime I have to do these stories, I have to stifle my emotions for awhile. There's just been too many of them. 

I have been dealing with a lot of headaches again. I was feeling a little ouchy last night, but not bad, but then I walked in the front door, felt a little warm, then bam! the headache hit me like a brick wall. It was so bad. I had ice packs all over me ... tried a bunch of stuff until I could get it under control. We did get rain over night so maybe that was it ... I think it's a sinus headache because the Vicks on the forehead and sinus areas seems to help and I took a decongestant this morning, started the nasal spray again. Plus I still have that  area in my neck that's ouchy. Plus, I have to be concerned about the meningitis thing ... I had one of those back injections that might be infected with the fungal meningitis. 

Judy, congrats on your bonus. Wish I'd get one of those ... I haven't gotten a bonus since, oh, Macon ... well, last year we got a $25 grocery gift card. I gave it to my cleaning lady because I was moving. She appreciated it. I have a feeling we'll get nothing here. But we had a couple of nice parties.

Anyway, have a nice day. Trish, enjoy your packing. I'm still unpacking.

Good afternoon Trish and everyone......

I too am feeling the pain and sadness of yesterday's shootings. It made me literally sick. I was wishing my grandchildren were close so I could hugs them all. Such a senseless act and so many innocents lost their lives. It hit me really hard. I am still shaken today. God Bless them all!!

Nothing new for me. Wishing you all a good day!!

Prayers for so many in need.....some special prayers as well.

Love and hugs to everyone......connie d

Hello sistas,

I have just been too sad to post the past couple of days.  All my little problems seem so trivial.  But I did want to say hi and let you all know I am okay.  Just hugging my Benny Bop close and wishing I could do something to protect him and so many other innocent children from the evil in the world.

Will try to post tomorrow. 

Love you all,
