Well here I am, back to being me! I don't know what I did so if I lose myself another time, I am clueless. Lannette, I was so hoping those sprinkles would turn into some rain for you guys. I have family in Seattle and worry about them. Pip, love the flamingos in front. I bet those people in a tent. Whine you are a bit…

Toni, I am amazed at the kindness you are showing your husband. I would hope that if I ever divorced, that I would do it like this. That way hopefully we would remain friends. At one point in time, there was an intense love enou to marry. I think that hopefully that deserves to remain at least a friendship. If I were young…

DJ, last night was the last day I had no dietary restrictions. Now I can't have fruit with seeds, skins, stuff like that. I love bananas but I love then real fresh and crisp but still yellow. It's like I need to go every day and buy a couple for the next day! But I love to eat them in my cereal and just to eat them plain.…

Michele, I agree with the others. If you don't go you will be stooping down to her level. I just can't imagine not going to my daughter's wedding shower. She is my daughter. Even if I didn't agree with the person she was marrying, she is still my daughter and needs all the support. With all the future MIL problems, she…

Became, it is a harsh reality that sometimes what we have always wanted in life doesn't happen when we actually have the opportunity to do it. When he finds his niche, he will soar. He is aa Gosset and Navy. You just can't beat that. Lenora, when my brother was I the Navy, him and wife just could not get pregnant although…

Beautiful, glorious afternoon ladies. Barbie, I think a lot of the closeness Charlie and I have seen has been because of his illnesses. Somehow that makes you see what you could lose and realize that it is precious to you and you don't want to ,one it. Plus I see his strength and determinedeness, is that even a word, and…

Barbie watched an interesting movie today and so did I. I put on from my DVR that sounded interesting. Charlie had already watched part of it and gave me almost the whole plot as I was saying pretty lucky lalalalalalalalalalal. He said it was very slow in developing and not worth watching. But stubborn me wanted to see for…

Michele, I am glad I have never been to that elaborate wedding shower. Any shower I have ever been to s at the reception hall r Sunday School room at church or at some one's home. Totally casual. Ladies would be wearing jeans and t shirt. Do you have some where special you and your wonderfully patient husband can go to…

Thank you for the good wishes. There were times when my girls were young that they would ask me why I didn't divorce him. He was very opinionated and was the only one that counted. As they gave grown and life happens he has mellowed. They have told me that they are glad we didn't divorce. They like this Dad more.…

Yvonne, glad you ok, family is oK. I can not imagine in my wildest dreams what you all have gone through. Evansville had their infamous flood of 1937 where I guess the entire city was completely flooded. We are a river town and occasionally the areas around the river do flood but we are now where near the river. Still the…

Pip, I think that is the most you have ever said in one post. Enjoy your day. Congrats on your amount you and Kirby have raised. It is 59 degrees right now! I love sweatshirt weather. It I don't have that many. I have no idea what happened to so,e of them but yet I have given away a lot of my clothes as I grow out of them.…

Hello September!!!!! Again as always, thank you Narbie. You always start the month with such encouraging remarks for all your kids here. I saw the thing on Face Book on the furniture store that took in evacuees. It looked like many furniture stores that becaus it makes room groupings, that families could actually be in a…

Not much to say tonight ecept the pictures of Houston encouraged me. Like you said 'it's coming' Allie, I hope you have all the household things like dishware, vacuum, etc handled. I feel like the others do. Don't like how Tom is being so nice about the dogs. Choir practice was rough tonight. Our director provides us with…

Ginger, that picture of the interstate is terrible. Nice to have something as beautiful as a sunset. Sometimes it seems like one step forward, two steps back. When my Mom had her sleep study it was found that her periods of not breathing at all were ong and frequent. She tried a CPAP for a couple f nights but was frantic.…

Thank you so much to our Texas gals for giving us an update. We have a guy at our church that has the biggest heart for service. It doesn't matter if he is part of a group that is officially sent by our Convention or him and a group that he has been on disaster relief recoveries over the years, he will go. Some way he will…

I think I finally figured out that you ladies are hunting for mushrooms. To me the word sounded like some kind of tea or herb. I still can't believe the incredible damage I see of Harvey and it's aftermath. I see pictures on the news but when I see them here it is more personal and I feel the pain more. The way our weather…

Tiffany, sorry about the feather mess. Congrats on the baby. I remember when I daughter gave me the news of my first. It really is amazing. And then when you hold that little bitty thing and they link onto your fingers. Oh, my heart was smitten right there. I know they say it is a reflex that they grab on but I don't…

Glad everyone is at least surviving down in Texas. We al continue to pray for you. We have a guy in our church that goes to any place that has some sort of disaster, he may not be officially sent from our convention . But he was at church today and miserable. He has tried to find a away to get down into the thick of things…

Well it looks like I have no choice nut to off of the Ambien 10 mg this week. I only have 3 left! So I am glad I have the 5 mg tablet here now. I do a reserve box just I case I am ever in situations line some of are in. Electricity is out, you may be flooded, you might not be able to get out because of trees down anyway,…

Glad everyone in Texas has checked in. Or at least I think everyone has. Stay safe, I can't believe you said you were bored on Houston. I would be on the edge of my seat. Lenora, congratulations. Why does she have to have the injections? What is said on MFP stats on MFP. My lips, and fingers are sealed. Mums the word.…

Hello all. Becca, the letter was what you needed and more. You will read that so many times, it will be tattered. Better copy it just so you can preserve it. Maybe your son will need to read it some day. You raised quite the boy, or rather a man. How many kleenexes have you gone through? The news tonight had a sattilite…

There, if you don't mind me asking, what kind of a job is this? Good luck with what you want. Sounds like you may gav several choices. I never went to any high school reunions. Never got an invite. Didn get an invite for college either. I think I may join the alumni though. They will respect the fac that I did not graduate…

Langman, beautiful work. My Grandma would embroidery all the time. I have some beautiful pieces madly her then more in my cedar chest that I have hoped my kids or grandkids would want them. So far my kids have told me pretty emphatically that that is not their style. So far it's just memories sitting in cedar chest. She…

One of my favorite Christmases, and I have a couple from when I was a child and about all we had was love was when Dad had changed churches. The movers kind of destroyed out box of Christmas decorations. So we made new ones. They wee the typical ones that don't cost any money except for construction paper, glue, foil and a…

Tired, weary, drowsy soul checking in.

Well my attempt at getting to sleep tonight is not working at all. Went to bed at midnight and here it is almost 6 hours later. I doubt the Ambien has much in my system anymore. The one Narco didn't help. I have taken one Benadryl but I can't feel that. I have done some jigsaw puzzles, played with my cats which I'm not…
