Penny, for most of my adult life, I've loved to travel. I kept a half packed suitcase ready and loved going everywhere. Suddenly, a few years ago, I stopped wanting to travel and now I'm happiest at home and hope that no travel opportunities come up. Thank you for the great pictures and stories of your adventures. I like cold places and have no desire to go anywhere south of where I am now.
TNToni, I'm glad to hear that you're taking steps to take care of yourself and your finances.
Joyce, I read a book called "The Five Love Languages" and found out that different people express and understand love in different ways. It sounds like Charlie expresses love with "services" and you want it to be expressed with gifts or loving words.
Machka, exercising in anticipation of your surgery sounds like good for the body and good for the spirit. When I am stressed, I exercise to comfort myself.
Leigh, I hope you enjoy your trip and your detour from very strict eating.
For the moment, Jake says he's married to me and is making use of the advice given him by his spiritual advisers. I think we are both trying to stay in the moment and let things unfold. Thank you, all for your loving suggestions.

Lanette: I'm a Pierce Brosnan fan, too. I haven't seen him in anything for too long. :ohwell:
I have had a headache ever since I got my new glasses. My right eye is great but my left eye hurts and is the source of the headache. I'm going in tomorrow to make sure the lens is mounted correctly and/or whether there is an error in the left lens prescription.

Katla - Pierce Brosnan is currently in "The Son" every Saturday night on AMC. Nice grey beard, cowboy hat.... yummy! LOL! Actually I don't think the show is that good, but I watch it for the "eye-candy" lol.Trying to find a photo of him to post looking all scruffy and rugged like that!
Yes, sounds like the prescription for your left eye is out of whack. Glad you can get in tomorrow so they can work on getting it fixed.
Heard from the bank this afternoon, they said they are trying to find what was submitted to the IRS and have "called in somebody" - that was only last year. HHmmm. I asked the gal how long this might take, she said a day or two at the most. I didn't feel real confident that she understood what had happened with the wrong 1099's, when I explained it to her she said, "I'll let the IRA Department know." I wanted to say I should have talked with the IRA department from the get-go, but didn't. All's well that ends well and it's not crisis mode.

Oh Pierce Bronson in "Momma Mia" was awesome! Until then I had no idea he could carry a tune!
I think humor is the best trait in a man. If you have a great sense of humor you can get thru anything in my book.
Last night I told my husband I would be going to bed at 9pm, when son went to bed. Well I was on my tablet, and I was organizing my photos, and then doing an on line puzzle. Well I finally went to bed at 10 pm, fiddling in the bathroom until 10:30. So husband wakes up and says he's disappointed with me, because I never do what I say. So going to sleep I was disappointed with myself, wanting to just sell this dang tablet... Morning comes and he apologised for saying what he said. Saying he's disappointed with me implies that I should feel guilty, and that I did something wrong. So we discussed that I am not that person years ago, online doing things to feel guilty about. I am not a disciplined person, at least not as much as my husband. So I will just be more mindful now. No trying to do the tablet, while my husband is trying to talk with me. We came up with a plan, where in we both check our emails, our threads, and if we are on the couch, I need to tell him that I wish to use the tablet, so my concentration will be on that. I don't purposely ignore him, I just can't multitask! We communicate so well these days, I am proud of us!

Thank you for the heads up on AMC's The Son ..just looked it up and I will put it on our list to watch. I agree with coastalgogal loved PB in Momma Mia,his singing is lacking but his looks make up for it any day of the week!

Good evening Ladies!
Yvonne, I'm so sorry to hear of your Mother's passing. I hope you tuck loving memories of her in your heart to help it heal. Such a difficult time of year to lose her, my heart goes out to you.
Toni, I admire the strength that you are exhibiting during this very difficult time. I'm glad you found a support group to help and you know we are all here to hold you up and provide a shoulder.
I had a lovely Mother's Day. My son and daughter-in-law made me a delicious salmon dinner. It was especially thoughtful of them to consider my dietary needs and cook accordingly. They topped it off with an individual heart shaped chocolate cake complete with nutritional information so I could log it all in. They certainly showed their love for me.
After 3 days of horrible cold, rainy weather, we are supposed to experience summer like weather later this week. It will be nice to put on the sunglasses again and enjoy the outdoors.
Time to get ready for bed.
Love and hugs to everyone.
Chris in MA

I had a lovely mother's day. Out for brunch with DH. Got a long phone call from my daughter, then the two youngest grandchildren showed up with some scraggly flowers and a card. They were so proud to bring these. LOL The flowers look much better now that they are in water. Only one I didn't hear from was my son, but won't let this ruin an otherwise nice day.
Hugs everyone.

Poof! My post disappeared...
Yvonne, so sorry to hear of your mother's passing, especially right before Mother's Day. May your loving memories of her help you heal.
Toni, prayers to you also. So glad you have a support group to help you thru this difficult time.
My Mother's Day was wonderful. My son and his wife made me a delicious salmon dinner using my favorite recipe. They ended it with a heart shaped chocolate mini cake complete with nutritional info so I could log it all in. They truly showed their love for me with this dinner. The single red rose I was presented with is making me smile whenever I see it.
Time for bed.
Love. And hugs to everyone.

Good evening y'all!
Good shows in AMC. I'm watching Better Call Saul right now.
My two daughters called me on Mother's Day which was nice. My son never calls, I haven't talked to him in 2 years... he's in a biker gang and they are his family. He has 4 kids and 4 different mamas. I keep track of the grandkids and send them gifts and go visit. I have 6 other grandkids too. I love them all and pray they are all ok!!
I was busy today doing housework and at Toyota. My husband's Corolla needed the 60k mi. service. $1078! My RAV4 was about the same last January. But they are good running cars and will definitely keep them maintained.
Yvonne Sorry to hear that your mother passed away. Prayers for you and your family.
Good night for now.

Had a bit of a blow last night. The house we were going to buy in Hove has gone back on the market.
She had waited 7 months for us and has made an offer on something herself, so I can't blame her.
I've seen one online that is a possibility, but we are now fixated on that area, even that road. Perfect position.
It might all turn out for the best as that house needed LOADS spent on it. But then most of them do around there. They are all houses from the 1920s and each one has been treated differently. Most need a wall knocking down and a new kitchen.
I did manage to sleep, but was up this morning looking online. Grrrrrrrrrr. :sad:
Lanette - Loved that quote. It speaks to me today too.
