Katla – Thanks. This is going to be a life-long ordeal; but, this time doing something before he gets to the point of having the problem of not peeing or the pain. Holding off could mean more extensive problems and neither one of us what to even thing about what that would entail. Maybe he won’t have to have the catheter…

Becca – I wore my hair really short and ‘spikey’ for many years; got tired of not being able to do anything with it differently; so I grew it out long (past my shoulders). It is so ‘fine’ that I would have had to have a lot of it to look good long. Wore it in a Farrah Fawcett cut in HS – colorwise and cut. I think the…

Becca – I am about to take my first bit of ES chocolate – only 1 little piece; but, I am not sure that I will have coffee … might make a small cup. Louis let me sleep in this AM because I was so wound up tight last night I could not sleep! But, he poured the coffee into his YETI cup and it keeps it pretty hot; other than…

Kate UK – I hope you are feeling much better. I had a ‘gallbladder’ attack the day my youngest son graduated from HS; we had been seated, I got up to go to the restroom before the services. Got up; and, hit the floor in the restroom. Woman came in and asked if I was ‘ok’ and I told her ‘no’, could she go find Louis. I told…

Gloria – I read Evanovich, Patterson, Grafton, Jance, Kellerman, and others … murder mysteries mostly. I think I have read just about all of James Patterson’s books to date. Some he wrote on his own; some he co-authored; to help a new writer get their feet wet. I especially like his Alex Cross series and his Michael…

Sharon – I know what you mean about ‘dealing with others who don’t use their brains and/or ears for ‘listening’ … like they don’t have to. Makes you want to grab them and shake them; but, you’d only hear the ‘loose marbles’ rolling around. Some don’t even want to hear about ‘real life’ – they are watching the wrong…

Katla – DDnL#1 [not so ‘dear’] just will NOT do what DOS tells her (or suggests); it is like she intentionally ‘bucks’ him. I’m not a ‘doormat’; but, Louis and I have a very kind and loving relationship; based on mutual respect. We are ‘friends’ and ‘lovers’; I think it is important to be ‘friends’. We both have interests…

Been sick all day! UGH! Sick at my stomach and all that sort of $#*T! I feel like Hell-O Kitty! Not helping that I am 'stressing' over DOS & DDnL#1's issues. Hard to have to 'sit back and just watch things crash & burn'. I am a 'fixer'; and, that just doesn't go well together. What I will 'never' ever understand is 'why'…

Mia - Loved all the pixs. Lucky girl!

Tami said there was so much that Will had never told him about his 'faith'. I grew up Baptist; and, wanted Louis to take me to the Catholic Church. We then went through Catechism classes together. His first wife had no problem signing papers for the Church to set their marriage aside. They were not married in the Church.…

Hi all - I've got to share this little story ... My boys grew up going to Catholic Churches and Parochial Schools; neither one is married to a Catholic. DDnL#2 is a cosmetologist in Natchez, MS; and, one of the ladies she does hair for brought her teenage daughter in to get a haircut and style; which meant she also had her…

Charleen – Our last cat, “Miss Kitty” lived about 21 years. As she got older, it was hard for her to jump up; but, every time we ever mentioned she did not look very good (not grooming herself) and thinking she’d die any time. We were always surprised that when we got home from wherever; she had groomed herself (partially)…

Frankiesgirl21 – Of course, you can come back; just drop in and post. Proud that you have stopped smoking, keep up the good work. Don’t worry about ‘falling on the weight boat’; we’ve all done that at some point. Don’t worry about the way you look – have loads of fun in the Bahamas. Yeah, unfortunately BP pills will make…

Joyce – I certainly missed something. You wrote to Chris about “your imagination running wild as to how a person would wear some of those outfits. Do your boobs go in them?” I missed that post, apparently; but, it did bring back memories of looking through “Frederick’s” catalogs that my Daddy (or my BF’s Daddy) used to…

Becca – Our DYS was diagnosed as ADD (only) and put on Ritalin during his 1st year of kindergarten. His 4th grade teacher had 6 kids in her class that were taking medications for ADD or ADD/ADHD and she met with us during parents’ night. She asked if we’d be willing to not give them their morning dose so she could see how…

Everybody looking and sounding good! Prayers for those who aren't. The FB link was hysterical! I hope if I have to be on a walker, I'd have the ability to move around that well. The first guy on the "Voice" was from Albany, GA ... this area can brag about Cole Swindell (although I don't particularly like him), "Luke Bryan"…

Chris in MA – Love the shoe pictures. For my ‘going away outfit’ I found some brown and deep olive green heels with a style of what the ‘50’s/60’s BeBop manner of coloring and they laced up, sort of like the '30's tie up heels. Found them at our next stop after buying the material to make my suit. Looked like they were…

1:00AM; Louis is so asleep, he gets to sleep in his chair until he decides he wants to 'get up to go to bed'. Cracker still asleep; but, got to let her out for a few minutes before she goes back to sleep in her crate. Night all! Maybe I should have said, "Morning all!" Lenora

We watched a Mel Gibson movie - guns and all that, too! Glad we did not have any daughters! Sons are easier, you can keep them entertained better. I would not have watched the freaking Oscars for anything. Don't think I will EVER watch another Awards Show (other than maybe the CMA - Country Music Awards). And can't wait…

Kate UK – DH and I had ‘date night’ tonight, too, so exercise for me. Bummer; but, I don’t normally I don’t exercise on Sundays … it is a ‘rest day’ for me. NYKAREN – OMG – Beautiful and the food looks absolutely ‘to die for’ … so much for counting calories while on vacation. Maybe you walked enough to make it all even…

SueBDew in TX – Around here, there are a lot of pecan trees; many neighborhoods have been built in them. I love pecans, but hate the dark sap spots that is associated with them. I never knew a pecan tree (or any tree that mature) could actually be ‘moved’ and not die. What they did is trim up the limbs back to the trunk of…

Allie – I don’t know what you make; but, do you really think you can pay all the bills, other than the mortgage(s) and car payments? Or, is this Tom’s way of getting ‘even’ with you? If he has been paying all the bills and your paycheck has been going to his bank is this a fair split according to the % each of you'd be…

Margaret - Thought of you when I saw this site. I hope it will open for you; it is from Greek Daddy (and shows people throwing clay. You might have to cut and paste to another program, such as a word processing program. Lenora https://biggeekdad.com/2017/02/ceramics-pottery-masters/

I somethings wish they made hair dye; that one could use and make their hair more gray. Seems like a few years ago, they did. Probably did not sell very well; but, now more people are going to let their gray grow in, to save the money on coloring it. HA! HA! HA! - DH says I am his 'trophy' wife, only because I am his…

Carey – My middle sister had a DVD of a routine of ‘ballet moves’. Did not last all that long; and, all 3 of us could barely move the next day. Lanette – I ‘deactivated’ my FB account; because of all the ‘drama’ … I think it is one thing to ‘post’ on a thread like this that is much better than putting things on FB for…

Re – Talking a raise; the 3% raise I got with my SSD check actually made it go up $1 … get you anyway they can … Medicare premium went up enough to wipe that 3% out. What makes it even worse is my retirement check went down thanks to my health insurance going up $38; in 2 years it has gone up a total of $83 (thanks, I am…
