I did go through the clothes , got winter on one side , spring and summer on the other.. summer 2-3 x I have put on facebook marketplace to sell.. the dresses have only been worn once.. alot of capris, shorts, and pretty tops.. took garbage out and took some stuff down to my storage space.. I am working next 3 days in a row.. and I am Mary's fair weather friend, she is all ticked off at me because Dr Pandey asked her to work Saterday and she is blaming me, I already had plans and told the Dr so.. well Mary said her niece and nephew are coming from Pennsylvania and that she was supposed to spend time with them.. I have worked every blessed Saterday up until 3 weeks ago and because it is a Holiday weekend she is pitching a fit.. all my fault.. I told her no it is Michaels fault...
She is never happy ,she is sweet to me when she wants something,but lord if I cross her its all over..

Carol/Peach: Prayers and energy going up for you.
Michele: Love the Pooh.
Allie: Happy dance! Glad to hear Michael got his karma cookie.
Ginger: Ditto what Michele asked: Where do you find the Choco made with monk fruit?
KareninVA: Thanks for sharing your photos and beautiful story.
Dr.Katie: Love the rug and the entire living room set up. Your hubby is a gem.
Sad news. Right now the schools in my area are in lockdown because the FBI is looking for an armed and dangerous person who has made credible threats. Helicopters circling and lots of cops and sheriff cars actively cruising our main streets. The anniversary of Columbine seems to be a trigger for this kind of activity. I feel for young families and their innocent kids who have to grow up wondering if their school is a safe place today.
Happy news. DH and I have a road trip booked that will take us to one of the most unique and modern cities in the west, and then circle home with a stop to see ancient cliff dwellings. More later.
Take care friends. We can do this.

Allie I am glad you missed that drama.
I hope your new employer makes you part of the hiring process on a new manager. He must have looked good on paper.
Did learn DS is now in the hospital where he needed to be four days ago. He was doing so well and his visit to hospital would have been much shorter. Now I am afraid it may be up to a month before he will be well enough to come home. Because of Hippa they can not tell us anything, I was able to tell them about his trauma. I did any patient needs to come in with a police officer to try have John elsewhere because seeing the police will most likely trigger him.
I had a great sub assignment I enjoyed spending time with some Kindergarten and I was able to get a third grade come out of his shell. I knew immediately he was traumatized. My trauma changes the way I handle children I know have severe trauma in their life.
I am down a few pounds since this started. I am working hard to eat healthy foods and very little sugar.

Margaret: Sorry to hear the legal solution did not work. I hope that shining light on this matter; whether by press, or letters of complaint, will help you son’s situation.
Auntiebk: Thanks for the welcome. Will update with info. shortly. New to social media, a little slo-mo in figuring it all out.2 -

I see I missed lots on my weekend away from the computer. Somehow I managed to stay below calorie goal, but I'm not sure how I did it. Things are crazy this week and next. My daughter has ballet stuff April 26-28. I'm chaperoning 3 rehearsals next week. I'm hoping running around the theater will make up for not getting to the gym.
Notre Dame still has me sad. I'm relieved to hear much was saved, but so much was lost. They still don't know the status of the organ. The pipes and console are there, but there could be heat and water damage that isn't visible yet. I just love old cathedrals.
Happy thoughts and inspiration for those here struggling with life and family issues, especially anybody dealing with mental health issues. It's a rough road with changes at every bend.

Hi Gals,
Allie – Great News about Michael!
Michele – pooh is so cute!
Rori – I just checked on line, and that sounds scary, keep your doors locked and stay in! Thinking of you, and the rest of the folks in the area.
Carol – sending good thoughts for your surgery.

Well, I guess I was wrong about the sleeping with part. Lol I am thankful for you that the nightmare is over.

Rori – I’m so sorry the schools are in lockdown. What do the people do who are not students? Can’t wait to hear more about your planned trip.
Ginger – I couldn’t believe it! The shipping for one bag of those chocolates is more than the chocolates themselves! At first I wouldn’t want to order a whole lot, what if I didn’t like them? How are they shipped? I would think that one bag could go in a padded envelope and the shipping wouldn’t be nearly as much.
Had Rummikub tonight.

Carol, thinking of you and look forward to hearing about your healing post surgery. Prayers for a speedy recovery.
Margaret, so glad your son is in the hospital now and getting the help he needs. My younger sister deals with severe PTSD and is currently having a scary meltdown. We all deal with different challenges.
I saw a sign on a board outside a church years ago. It said,”If in doubt be kind”. Such a simple concept but what a difference a bit of kindness can make.

Oh Allie I’m happy for you! No Michael and more hours!! I’m also glad you didn’t have to witness the drama.
So sad about Notre Dame. Such a terrible thing!
I’m still here, just really busy working in the yard and spring cleaning.
Another severe storm coming tomorrow night! (Nooo!)
I’m still waiting to put up our new umbrella. (The 2nd one blew off and broke up.) my DH can’t understand why I leave them open but our dog likes shade too!
Have a good day or evening!

Carol - Sending best wishes for a FAST healing.
Rita - I am so impressed by your transformation. You are doing great! I bet you feel so much better.
Another night of blocked up nose. Grrrrrrrrrr! I did get some good sleep after 5.30 until 7.00. Go away cold! Luckily I have an interesting book to read, about running! :laugh: That must be around my 25th book about running.
Must go for a run today.
Swing dancing was hilarious last night! DH felt better about it because no one could do the last moves. We all had a great laugh.
Amazed my knee is holding up. A few years ago there is no way I could have done any of this. By exercising my knee muscles every day I have strengthened it a lot, though I still have to baby it a bit. Had to spin on it last night!
Rori, hope they get it sorted.
Kim - how is your brother's health now?
Love to all, Heather UK xxxxxxx3 -

Heather my friend Jean is an M&S fan, she is always getting bargains. She told us the jumper she was wearing on Saturday was in the sale and she got 90% off. I think she said she bought about 3 or 4 jumpers for less than £20. I'll have to go shopping with her
I was at the dentist yesterday for a check up, all is well I'm pleased to say, he told me to be careful with my back teeth and watch the tartar build up (I have deep pockets apparently) don't have to go back until October for my next 6 month check up.
Better get my exercise out of the way before I make the excuse that I haven't time!
