Sunday Greetings
Hello Cindy....so nice to see your post!!
I am sorry to hear that you hurt yourself. Is it your foot or where is it? How did the fall happen? I pray you get it looked at if it still bothers you in a couple days. 
I hate when they run out of electric carts. I think they need to invest in a few more. I am sure you were hurting bad after that. I hope you really rested plenty for the rest of the day!! 
I miss you here....and would love to see you more often!!
Love and many hugs to you....connie d
Hi Connie. I hurt my left hip area. The pain often radiates from around my hip to down my leg. I was going to sit in a chair and lost my footing and sat hard in the chair. It doesn't feel like a fracture but maybe something is out of alignment. I do have a dr. appt. for Thursday afternoon. It is better now than when it first happened but I'm keeping the appt. no matter what. I'd like to get an x-ray and possibly PT (if there is no facture).
I agree that stores should have enough carts --- based on usage -- and that they should be kept in working order. It's spring break for Washington state this week and a lot of people are here in our little town. I probably could have gotten a cart had we gone to the store earlier. We didn't get there until 10:40 a.m. and it was pretty busy by then.
Thank you for asking about me.
Cindy P.
Hello All,
Well, we took our granddaughter home this afternoon. We took her to Denny's for a late brunch and then on down the mountain. She was pleasantly surprised by the new baby chicks that hatched on their farm and two new calfs. Her mom was happy to get all the new clothes and told me that a friend of hers had a fabric store that is going out of business, so guess who is getting a **** load of new fabric? Of course, there will be many outfits made for the kids but hey, I love making the kids clothes. She gave me a beautiful piece of material to make my granddaughter an Easter dress and enough material to make the boys a shirt each. So, I will get all of that done this week.
While I sew and sew good and can sew anything, I really hate sewing. I know that sounds weird. But, I do love to crochet, so I can crochet anything with or without a pattern and just do it with no stress. Sewing, though, I really work at it.
Like I said, my daughter's chickens had chicks and two of her cows gave birth...so my granddaughter was very excited to see all the new babies. Wed., I am going back down the mountain to go to the bank and cosign for my daughter a loan so she can build a room onto our old house and get a new central air unit. I told her that I would pay for it, but she said, no, just help her get the loan and she will pay it back to the bank.
Vic, you have a busy week coming up and doing all that moving on top is going to keep you very busy. I agree with you that if anyone works two jobs, it should be the man. I might be old fashioned like that but having your daughter out working her butt off like that cannot be good for his ego, so he needs to man up. And the other daughter, good for her. I am happy that she is coming out angry. It is so much better than doubting herself. She is the catch, my god. He has a child, not that there is anything wrong with that, but he has a child.
Connie, I am so happy the headache has passed....there is nothing as bad as a nagging headache.
Our grandsons were in some kind of fishing thing and we came home with a freezer full of trout, bass, and spoon billed fish...I cooked a little of the spoon billed and it was delicious. I can tell you that I can eat fish better than any other meat and it doesn't mess with my pouch so we are going to spend the next few weeks eating up some trout and bass.
Well, I need to go clean up the dinner dishes....hope you guys slide into your Monday with little stress.
Hello Jeannie....I am sure that your granddaughter and her mom loved all the new clothes!! It sounds like you will be getting some good fabric to work with. That is great!!
I am so happy that my headache finally left too. I sure felt lousy yesterday and this morning. The day is always better when you don't have to deal with headaches!!
You are so blessed....oh what I wouldn't do for fresh fish!! I love the little pan fish the best! Now I am hungry for fish!!
I hope we all including you...slide into Monday with less stress!
Much love and oodles of hugs....connie d
Hi Ladies!! Had a quiet day today - did a bit of floor cleaning - swept and mopped the kitchen and bathroom; not much other than that.
I've been doing a lot of brooding lately about my situation, and changes I need to make and want to make. Going to the intake appt. tomorrow for therapy, so I've been thinking about that. Vickie, your thoughts got in my head today--I've always been the breadwinner of the house. I didn't mind it with my husband because he was a great "house husband" - literally, all I had to do was cook. He kept the home in tip-top shape, inside and out. We didn't have a lot of money, but we got by fine. Now with Jim, it's a different story. I thought he was going to be like Mick was, and take care of everything - but he doesn't. But I feel like I'm between a rock and a hard place because of his health issues. At this point, I don't feel it's "in me" to make him move, because he has health issues and has no family. Right now, I'm glad he just stays in his room, and basically comes out to get something to eat only. He has tried to "take control" in the past, but I have gotten to the point where I am going to do what I have to do for myself. He can use his own check for himself, I don't care -- but he has to pay me for gas that I need to take him to his daily appt. - and he's got to buy his own food. I've got to use my money to get some things fixed here while I still can. I was looking at some mobile home listings on Realtor . com just to look at pictures.... I saw a lot of older homes like mine that were fixed up and really looked nice. So, I'm going to throw my shoulders back and stand tall and take care of myself.
Hope you don't mind my venting -- I just feel like I need to "turn the corner" so I am heading in the right direction. I am woman, hear me R-O-A-R!!!

Hello Mary....I am glad you had a quiet day. We all enjoy days like that!!!
I pray your appointment tomorrow goes really well. Let me know what you think of the new doctor.
Just my opinion...I know you have not wanted Jim there before. You are not married to him. You have every right to send him on his way. You can take him to Human Services and they will help him out. Being that he would be homeless, he will be added to the top of the list for a place to live through HRA or HUD. You have gone above and beyond with letting him stay there long enough. I think you would be happier alone. You can do as you want...you know me... I give my opinion. You can take it or not.
You are woman...hear you ROAR!!!! Turn that corner!!!!
Much love and lots of hugs....connie d
