What's Happenin'

[joy]

I am so glad you are getting to go along. You will find enough to entertain yourself when he is at work. I use to do that and if all else, I'd read. Just getting to go was better than being home alone. I am anxious to go camping somewhere myself soon.

[Jo6]

I too am glad you will get to go with hubby. Like Joy I used to go on some of these trips. Sometimes I would walk if a Mall was near by,spend much of the day. Also if the town was close by I would check out all the interesting old
Stores. I also read a lot.

Now that Ken is retired I would love to do some of these things again, he does not like to do these things. When late summer gets here I have already told Beth I would go to Fripp Island with her and Susan. Maybe take a granddaughter or 2

That's too far away. I WANT TO GO NOW. RANTOVER

LOVE Y'all, Jo

You guys are SO right. I know better - I knew better. I was thinking about this again recently. I think I just need to go back to therapy. It keeps me in check. Haven't gone cause can't afford it but hubby now has a job so soon I'll go.

Yep - Hubby finally got a job - a good job too! Some stress has lifted. I am grateful!

How is everyone? I'm on my about 5th cold of the season ugh. My voice is all scratchy. Nose stuffed, dang.

So the dance studio job. I freaked out for no reason I guess? All is well from what I can tell. I gave them a month's notice but then took it back. So far I've tried to discuss it further but both of the directors are just too busy? So I just go and I teach and maybe at some point they'll say I'm done or maybe not? Confusing I know.

Besides going to therapy I need a dentist too! Broken tooth.

What's everyone up to?

Love,
Sly

all that is here is chirping crickets

[Jo6]

Clouds you have many things to say. Do you remember the Chit Chat room back when we mostly used the chat rooms? I remember back then ad you were in there a lot? This was back in maybe 1999? Long time,but I remember a lot of things from back then.

We did have some good times while we all got to know each other. There are quite a few from that period of time that are here, still posting.

if you notice I don't really have any thing to say. I boar everybody to death with tales of my kids and grandkids. THEY are my life and when I have the energy I do things with them. IN between Times I hang out here at BT

Everybody here feels like my family. When I feel like sitting long enough I am going to change my avatar. That ugly old women with the big red hat is really not me. Lol

cooked a turkey dinner yesterday. cold here but not complaining cause spring is in the air. still have 3 deer eating here-spoiled with cut up apples now. concussion has now cost me almost $1,000. watching far too much TV. son still living here. have lost another 2#. Lor,happy to know you got a new camper. Sly,go back to therapy if it helps you. Jo,you are not boring. cannot think of anything else to chirp about.

[sly4626]

Made an appointment for Monday - called my therapist and left her a message saying I'll pay something when I come in - told her to call me if that won't work. She didn't so yay I'm IN! Hubby just got a job I told her too and guess what, we'll have insurance again! You're so right Pati - I'm glad I made an appointment - I really need to be there.

Hi everyone! Much love to you all!!

Not much happenin' here. I'm just sittin' here in a hotel room in Ottawa. Ill. I came with John who came due to work. We'll be here a week then home for a break for the weekend the back monday. I figure, why not go? At least I can see John every day. I'm just sittn' on the bed watching the History Channel. I didn't eat lunch cuz I didn't wanna walk out in the cold to walk next door to "Craker Barrel". There's not much to do if you don't drive. Maybe tomarrow to see what they sell ther (it's a restaurant but the have another room like a general store). The "Kmart" is about 3/4 mile from here but I don't wanna walk that far this time of year (temp. is in the 20,s). Oh, this is a "Hampton Inn". It's not bad however they are remodeling so the lobby is torn up & we have to walk trough a sorta' tunnel of paper stips hanging from the ceiling, to get to the elevator.

Lor - I used to go on business trips with my hubby a long time ago. We went to Disney and New Orleans and some other places. It's nice to have that time to hang out I think. Crackle Barrell is a good restaurant I've heard :)

My hubby is out of town for his new job again. It's me and the "G." Have I ever told u guys I call my son G? Anyway with dad away mom has to step up and do stuff. I've never been the one to run things around here because I either worked full time out of the house or just couldn't do it cause of mental health stuff. Hubby has always been the one u know? I really depend on him too much. But now that he's away for a bit I see that I CAN run things! Feels good! Don't get me wrong I miss hubby but I'm glad my son can count on me when dad's away. Hubby says he's proud I me lol. I guess it's an accomplishment? It's like I grew up a bit more in a way.

Oh and someone from the past has contacted me for the 2nd time in 3 years. Not a healthy person. My former therapist who I ended up being friends with me. #1 that's not a good thing. So I haven't responded and didn't the first time either. But I may just write back and say - I can't go here with u again but I wish you well. I'll have to figure out something to say but dang I really don't want to respond. Blah.

If its not one thing it's another lol. Nah, every day is a gift. I see this now an I'm grateful I'm here.

Love,
Sly

And... Buttons, are u going to be ok? Been thinking about u and this concussion stuff. Did u want to lose weight? Just checking to make sure u r alright :) also I love how you said "chirp." I love all the chirping we all do!

I agree, you are NOT boring Jo! I love hearing about what everyone's up to - you included! :)

Hello to you too Clouds. :)

Love,
Sly

[dawnmn]

Lor, I'm going with my DH for a trade show he has in Las Vegas. I mostly wander around the hotel and also watch TV.

Sly, that's great that your doing it on your own. I think that my DH doesn't trust me to stay home for a week by myself. lol I don't gamble so that's safe for me.

Jo, I agree with the others just keep talking to us.

Joy haven't heard from you in awhile.

[houghchrst]

Sly I am so glad your hubby found a job. I hope things go better with yours.

I'm with all you ladies, definitely ready to go camping. Lor we have a pop up but it is in rough shape. Would love to have a motor home but some of those cost as much as a house. That reminds me, a member of CJ's family has one that she said we could use if we wanted too. Just waiting for the time and money. Got plenty of places to go.

Mrs. Jerome I agree about the Zumba, may as well plan to carry me out. Jeannie it is awesome how well you are doing. I'll just sticking to my dancing while I clean, with my headphones on and my music blasting.

Now as far as I have ever experienced the MOB's dress doesn't match. My colors were burgundy and white. My mom wore a very smart, sophisticated blue suit dress. My MIL wore your typical frothy peach mother of bride/groom dress.

Finally got my Roomba. It came yesterday and just like a good boy vacuumed my living room floor for me. We'll see as time goes by how much I like it. Lots of mixed reviews. hoping to get the Scooba soon. I only have three small rooms that need mopping you'd think my back would last long enough.

Planned to get a Sleep Number bed until I really started researching air beds and found out they are pretty much junk unless you get their top of the line. Foam support issues so I ordered one from a better quality company that makes theirs a different way. So it is on it's way for a 90 day trial and we will see how it goes.

See guys things are going so much better but can I get a day or two where something new doesn't come up to throw something else in the mix of things I worry about. Can't stop that worry worm that constantly nibbles on my brain on a daily basis.

I is working on it.

[Jo6]

yes dal'ing lil queenie, you lay down that worry wart and I'll hold it for awhile so you can rest your mind! You're way too young to worry your self to death!

Ever since Ken and I had such a long day on Tuesday I have not moved, well not much. I was so happy the day didn't totally destroy me.

Ken asked me if I liked the mini-van, I said yes indeed. It didn't hurt me to ride in it like that little car we gave to Jon. He said he liked it too and was sorry he didn't buy it sooner!!!!

He is such a sweetie Sorry, I'll go wash out my mouth with soap. My mama taught me not to tell lies

I do love him even when he is grouchy.

Lil Queenie, stop that worring. it will make your hair turn white and make you have a nervous breakdown. You're doing good and I am proud of you!

love you, big queenie ((((((lil queenie))))))

Sly, you can do anything you want. I'm proud of you too. Don't be so hard on yourself, you hear? You and (G) will do just fine while hubby is away on his new job! I'm thankful he got a job. now You can stop worring.

Pati, now you answer the email I sent you. I missed a whole bunch of stuff sometime, just don't know where I was. I'll say I'm concerned about you, not that I am worring about you. I love you anyway.

Dawn, gosh you travel so much, why don't you come down south? I would love to see you.

I love you all, Jo s
