Good afternoon Kathy and everyone...
Kathy...that is wonderful that you are getting another pet. You will have to let us know what you chose when you get home.
Most of Cheech and Chong I can live without. Just not my thing at all. Good thing you had laundry to distract you.
I hope you got your flowers planted and spent some time with Jazz.
As for me.... not much of anything. It is after 3 PM and I am still in my PJs. I need to get in the shower. I decided to post here first.
It is cold and rainy here today. I didn't even attempt to go out and walk. I have decided I am not going to walk on Sunday's. I need one really lazy day!!
Yes, I am so happy Nic had a wonderful Golden Birthday!! I did cry off and on all day. Mostly happy tears and many thanks to GOD and our Lord Jesus Christ.
It has been a weepy week anyway as my mom's birthday was the 21st. After 16 years wouldn't you think I could get past this by now. Guess not!
Prayers for our loving OFF Family and their families. Special prayers for those in need.
Wishing everyone a beautiful day!
So much love and many hugs to all....connie d

No word from Peggy. (Rick's aunt) on her test results. So we don't know if they can do surgery or chemo or nothing. And ofcourse nothing from his big mouth mother either. Go figure. Sighs......

Hi Ladies,
It's another nice day.
I got up and went to church. Now I'm drinking my coffee and going to read my newspaper. I think I'll go see my friend today that had heart attack.
Connie I didn't get to my movies yesterday. I watched San Andreas last week. That was good. Hope you're having a good day.
Kathy hope you can find a pet today. I would love to have a dog but they don't allow dogs where I live just cats. Cats are okay but I rather have a dog.
Everyone have a good day. Thoughts and prayers for everyone.
Love and hugs,
Yvonne
Good Morning Everyone!
It is a beautiful morning here in central DE...loving the weather!
We are on our way to a Baltimore animal shelter... about 90 minutes one way. They are having a adoption waived fee for the month of April! The animals come spayed, dewormed and with up to date shots! Hoping to find a dog as the house is so empty without Tink. I can't wait to get there...there are supposed to be 300 pets to choose from.
I was lazy when I got home from the yard sales. After peeing and eating I took a long nap. Then Jim insisted we watch this retro Cheech & Chong movie...no comment...just shaking my head!
I folded some laundry to distract myself...lol..
Anyhow, hope to plant more impatiens when we get home, take a long walk and hang with Jazz.
Was glad to hear from you, Jeannie. Hope things quiet down.
Connie, what a blessing Noc got to celebrate that milestone.
Arlene, i can relate to the financial frustration after a lifetime of working. It doesn't seem fair, does it? I hope Social Security will help when I turn 62 as I should get about the same I need to earn now to have some wiggle room, but inflation will probably eat most of it. Then o may have to consider a reverse mortgage... We'll see..
Well gonna sign off...hate posting from my phone while Jim hits every bump possible.
Everyone have a great day!

Kathy
HAPPY BIRTHDAY NIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOD BLESS YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hope you had a Great day!!!!!!!!!
HUGSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Connie if you need more let me know! I have a tin knitted up!!!

Connie, I came to terms with the roommate situation. I hardly ever see him, he is constantly in his room. You see, I am a low income senior. My daughter has helped me with my rent for the last few years, ever since I smacked to the ground during the great recession, lost my job and couldn't find a job and then lived on unemployment benefits for 99 weeks. Because I had lived on my own for so long, and was attending and trying to complete college, I and only I had to pay my own way. So not a lot of money was put into my retirement.
I moved here because she had to help him out too and couldn't afford to fork out a ton of money. I can make it on my own IF I find a part time job for extra income. I have hated the fact that she had to help me out. Me, who attended and almost finished college, and attempted to so many times, me who worked so hard all my life. Also, me who lived on my own for 17 years after my second divorce because I liked living alone. the divorce actually traumatized me for at least ten years. I gained a lot of weight for many reasons but also to me it was also my protection from men.
He, Joe, is about 6 years older but has a lot of health issues; Diabetes, weak, knees, COPD, and the taking him to the gym was so he could walk up a flight of stairs to Lisa's after wedding venue, which is being held at a bar in Nashville on the second floor. The only way up is up a flight of stairs. He also had a benign brain tumor removed about ten years ago and there was some brain damage. A lot of things he will state, and simply doesn't remember later. I hated him for being a bad father. I have had to let go. If my daughter let it go, I have had to. I adore his family here in PSL. His sister Carla, the one who had meningitis scratches her head over the fact that he doesn't move around or walk. His choice. She is back to doing housework like she did before, but she tires easily. Whew now that was an explanation.
The wedding is 2 weeks away and things are calm. She is excited, Adam is excited and I am so excited too. So many of her friends I know from when I lived up in CT from 1998-2003 (she moved to NYC at that time) and it will be so great to see them again. I will also see #2 who is very harsh on me. I used to take it personally but he is angry that he lost the best thing he ever had. I will get to meet HIS family again after not seeing them for so long. So we are all excited.
WHAT AN EXPLANATION OF A SIMPLE QUESTION, LOL.
UGH...you still have your period?
I'd be cranky, too.

Kathy
Hello Jeannie....I am so happy to see that you posted today!!
I am so happy that your cousin is going to hang out with your brother for the next few weeks.That would be great if your brother could rent a place near you for when he is in town.
I couldn't sit around watching those loud war movies either. There is just too much noise in those movies. I could watch one once in awhile but not all the time. I am glad you can at least go into your bedroom and watch Netflix!!
Please be careful and take care of yourself too. I know things are very crazy for you sometimes. So many places/people to be with all at one time.
I hope the transfusions go well for you. That would be great if they could last for two years!
I hope you finish the cleaning and can get back to your apartment and try to relax.
Love and hugs to you....connie d
