(((hugs))) to those who need them. Destiny is just amazing. She always looks so hopeful and radiant. Love and Blessings, Carla, in MN

(((hugs))) to those who need them. Heather, your ballerina is beautiful! I'm just not a huge beach person. I LOVE the water, mind you. I just don't do "beaches". Like M said, I love the water, I love the smell, I love the sounds, I love being there. I just don't DO them. Mainly, I don't do hot and I don't do sun. I get…

<3 LAST DAY OF SCHOOL!!!

(((hugs))) to those who need them. Hunter went home last night absolutely TUCKERED OUT! I think everyone knew his name. They all sure loved him. He even went to class with one kid (with the teacher's permission). smh. Commencing the LAST student day of the school year... of course, they're all going to be out on field…

(((hugs))) to those who need them. WOOHOO Heather! So happy for you! Heading into the last HUMPday. Wish me luck. Don't know if I've mentioned that I've had Hunter with me since Friday since his district ended and their childcare had a week off. Today is his last day. He's had a ball. 8-year-old in a middle school, hanging…

Welcome newbies and returnees! (((hugs))) to those who need them. I'm so sorry about Jake, Barbie. Cancer sucks! Tuesday down! Three more to go! Love and Blessings, Carla, in MN

(((hugs))) to those who need them. Flea, that's gorgeous! Beautiful pix, Rhonda. Thanks for sharing your part of the world. OH MY, Debbie! You are quite the culinary artist! I'm impressed. Congrats on the auction and your part. Totally agree, Barbie. I don't know where I'd be without music. It's my refuge. I have music on…

(((hugs))) to those who need them. Congrats to your son, Rebecca! Annie, so very sorry for your loss. WOW Pip! Glad you weren't hurt and someone was there for you. Lucy is a cutie. Oh Heather, such good and bad. Love the cake and VanGogh. Sorry about DH and his daughter. Debbie, so sorry you had to drive just to find out…

<3

Welcome newbies and returnees! (((hugs))) to those who need them. HERE looks amazing, Pip! But he's such a CUTE lapdog, Rebecca! Welcome Rhonda21km. Heather we keep telling you... what's not to love. You're far too critical! Went shopping for veil stuff last night with Lacy! OMG! I get to make her wedding veil. I'm so…

(((hugs))) to those who need them. Barbie, those iris are GORGEOUS! Thanks so much for the new, June thread. WOW... June. School ends in seven days. You're welcome Rori. It's one I learned through MoMs. Unfortunately, we use it a lot in the military. Love and Blessings, Carla, in MN

(((hugs))) to those who need them. Yes Allie, it has to be done. Poor Carmine. It runs in our family too. Anne was cutting as a teenager and we had her in treatment during HS. She did really well and is thriving now. Carmine really needs professional help asap. I'm so sorry. Sending prayers. Geez Flea, it's so terrible…

Welcome newbies and returnees! (((hugs))) to those who need them. Thanks Mary. I'm better today. Thanks Michele! That's the tough thing about this angelversary/anniversary thing, Barbara. Of course Shawn didn't intend on dying at all and I certainly thank GOD that he didn't die ON our anniversary, but geez, it just always…

(((hugs))) to those who need them. Oh shoot, Debbie. I am so sorry. I watched the video from the George Marks Children House. It looks absolutely lovely and made me cry. Of course, I've been doing a lot of that this weekend. It's Shawn's 8th angelversary and this one hit me hard. Not sure why unless it's because Kolten is…

(((hugs))) to those who need them. Pip, she looks amazing! Well done. So sorry about Jerry, Michele. Wow, he's really lucky to be alive. So glad they found him. Welcome home, Rori. Your trip looked wonderful. Oh Ginny, I love your signs from hubby. That's so awesome. Freddy and I believe in all of those signs from heaven…

(((hugs))) to those who need them. I completely agree with Margaret, Mary!!! You should meet with your renter and strongly suggest that if her family does not cease and desist immediately that not only will she not get the $500, you'll be taking them all to court for defamation. You don't have any proof that she told him…

<3

(((hugs))) to those who need them. Heather and Rori, those pictures make me so HAPPY! Pip, the wall looks amazing. SO impressed. Please; you did a great job. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! Praying for Guam, Rebecca. Uh-oh, Allie... boys and their toys. Now Miles knows what he wants for Christmas!!! hehehe, one of those BIG-rider lawn…

(((hugs))) to those who need them. WOOHOO MARY!!! That's just about the best news I've read all day. I'm so thrilled for you. Too bad it couldn't be May 31st. Hopefully that $500 is enough to keep her from doing any damage, but since it's payment AFTER the walkthrough, you should be safe. Heather and Rori, you both look…

(((hugs))) to those who need them. Exactly Mary. So now not only is it lost income, it's lost POTENTIAL income and renovation for what she's cost you. Aside from what it would cost you to take her to court, I'd love it if you could get rid of her, but I would worry about what kind of retaliation she might try to take too.…

(((hugs))) to those who need them. WOW Mary. Just wow. IDK. I don't think you have a choice but to allow her to stay through her lease... I guess, but I'm sure nothing is going to change. She absolutely took advantage of the fact that you were not around to check on her. I'm so sorry. Like Margaret said, it certainly…

<3 Happy SONday! Love and Blessings, Carla, in MN

(((hugs))) to those who need them. Feeling MUCH better, thanks all! Could be just me, Allie, but it sounds like maybe they took a BACKBONE lesson from GRANDMALLIE!!! It is a tough situation, but they had to BE tough too. Hopefully, she'll realize that she has to work her way out and she'll be better for it. There's always…

(((hugs))) to those who need them. I heard that ginger works well for upset tummies. Don't have any, darnit, Debbie, but thanks. Feeling a bit better today, but taking a "mental health" day today anyway. OKAY Barbara, you're on! I actually love cooked cabbage. I really love just about any veggie, cooked or raw, just NOT…

(((hugs))) to those who need them. OH NO, Beth! That's just too scary for me! Of course, I love Kim's answer... maybe you're actually haunted? The Runza sounds amazing, Mary, although I could do without sauerkraut. If it's just cooked cabbage, I'm fine, but I don't like the fermenting. Yuck. Freddy loves it. Supposed to be…

Drive safe Mary! I'll let you know when I FEEL the change in THE FORCE!!! Enjoy the weather. It's been really cool Up North! Beautiful Pix! Love and Blessings, Carla, in MN

(((hugs))) to those who need them. OH NO TRACEY!!! I'm so sorry! Good luck with that. My PT said I had the worst case he'd ever seen, so I'm not a good person to ask about it. I was "out" for a good 6 months and couldn't lift my arm above mid-breast, couldn't move it forward maybe 45deg beyond my body and couldn't move it…

Welcome newbies and returnees! (((hugs))) to those who need them. So sorry Annie. Katla, that is so sad. We went through the same thing with my mom's house, but ya know, the buyers worked it out on their own and ended up buying it in the end anyway. There's always hope and, as Carol said, houses are selling like hot cakes…

So happy for you Allie!!! Sending love and best wishes to all the mothers of all kinds out there. We had dinner with the kids and grands last night. It was wonderful, fun and giggly! Also saw some dear, old friends on the way out the door, so that was a great treat. Love and Blessings, Carla, in MN

(((hugs))) to those who need them. Of course you didn't raise her this way, Allie, but you're not cowtowing to her needs right now you're making her deal with things all by herself... because she knows that Kyle's basically, well, yeah. She'll have to get him to step up all by herself, which sorta leaves her all by…
