Heather—glad you go a message from your ex. When you share years and children togther there is always a bond. Marchka—Great news about your shoulder. Lisa—scary dream. I hate when I have a dream and when I wake up I have to take time to realize it was just a dream. Happy for you and Corey and your new machine. Ginny and…

Happy Friday. They got my background check and drug test back. I start Monday morning at 9:30. To say I am nervous is putting it midly. I know once I get there and get started I will be ok. So please say prayers I don't freak out. Rita—I am so sorry to hear about Brownie. You did what was best for him. that doesn't make…

Ginny and Betsy—Sending hugs and prayers. Just never know what is going on in someone mind. Betsy— Hope you and your sister enjoy your time in Alaska. It is on my bucket list to go there someday. Blessings, Vicki GRAND ISLAND,NE💜

Thank you all for the good wishes on the job. I admit I was getting pretty depressed. So looking forward to doing something new and not going to let myself get stressed about it. The 2 women who interviewed me seemed nice and down to earth. I felt very comfortable with them. Machka—I usually go to the bathroom a lot, but…

my granddaughter and her boyfriend going to Prom

Thank you Barbie for getting us started on the new month. It is starting out better than the last couple. I did the interview at the court house and they are to let me know. In the meantime I had applied for Front desk administrator at the county housing authority office. They called me for interview on Wednesday and…

Hello from Nebraska where I am not sure what season it is. We have had 2 big snow storms that have shut down roads and everything else. It was in the 80's yesterday and will be again today and then rain and snow over the weekend. I am not sure where the month went as been spacing off a lot. Time to put my big girl panties…

Well it has been an interesting couple days weatherwise. We were lucky and the wind did not do any damage to our house. We got snow and ice and most the roads in the whole state were closed due to trucks and cars sliding all over. Today was 40 and most of it melted. They are calling for snow tomorrow and then in the 60-70…

Barbie--Thank you for starting us on the new month. Sending big hugs. Grief is different for each of us. Carol--Glad you got your FB page back. I was having trouble with my email the other day. After a couple hours I was finally able to change the password and it is working again. Heather and Lanette--I am finding that I…

Debbie--Sorry to hear about your former MIL. Had phone interview today with a local bank. Said they will let me know by the end of next week. DH goes back to doctor tomorrow so see what they say about him going back fulltime. Blessings, Vicki GRAND ISLAND, NE <3

My granddaughter picking out her prom dress. Hard to believe she is old enough for prom and dating

Good evening from Nebraska where it is 102 warmer today at 61 then last week at below zero. It was great to get out and enjoy the day. Sun shine helped my mood greatly. Ginny--sending prayers for your health. Flea--being a parent is hard. I have done so many things wrong, but I always did the best I could with what I knew…

Wanted to check in as I am up to page 19. The weather has been terrible here. Over 11 inches of snow and temps below zero. Today it was almost 20 and to be in 30-40's next couple days. I have had to keep the driveway and sidewalks clear and this last time I hired someone. This weather has been having a real depressed…

Hello from Nebraska where we got 7 inches of snow last night and I am so over this. Our DGD and her 2 oldest boys came over and cleaned our sidewalk and driveway. I am finding it really hard to ask for help. This whole thing with DH and his hip has been a eye opener for sure. He is doing well and can return to work Monday…

Just checking in I am not sure where time is going. Carla--Sory for your loss. Sending prayers. Enjoyed seeing all the pictures. I have been overweight my whole life. At my highest I was 402 pounds. Last 10 years have been 260-270. I would like to lose 100 more and slowly working on it again. DH and I weigh each Tuesday…

Happy Saturday from COLD Nebraska. It is above zero. Next week to be in the 50's and back to cold the next week. Rebecca--The new ear rings are pretty. I took mine out after I stopped working and should see about putting some in. Annie--with everything you are doing great. One day at a time. Machka--Sorry to hear about…

Well I have had my fill of winter. It has been below zero for days. Yesterday and today it was above. Yesterday I took the car in to have the check engine light checked. First they came out to tell me when they opened the hood a rabbit ran out. Then later came to tell me a mouse had chewed some wires and it is not covered…

Good afternoon from freezing Nebraska. Started out below zero this morning and up to 13 now. Good day to stay inside. Not to be much better for the next couiple days. DH's surgery went well. Doctor said it was one of the worest he had seen. He did up staying a extra day as the first time they got him up he passed out. Had…

Heather--I pray things get better for DS. Sounds like he has been dealing with a lot on top of his grief. I can understand the kids and the questions and fears they are dealing with. Hard enoughn when we are older, but so out of control for everyone to understand. Machka--Congradulations on the new grand daughter. What is…

Still cold here, no new snow. There is several inches on the ground. Heather -- Sorry to hear about DS's boss. Glad they are getting your window replaced. Tracey--Sounds like Roger's party was nice. Pip--Love your home away from home. Rori--Happy birthday. I agree N sounds like a perfect fit with you. Kim--your homemade…

A little warmer today. Got the car washed and in the garage. No plans to go anywhere until Monday when we have class at the hospital for DH's surgery. Katie--So glad you are doing so well. Tracey--Hope Roger enjoyed his party. I tried doing surprise party for DH a couple times and I would mess up and say something and he…

Pip--Sorry you were not clear, I hate when that happens. Rita--Hope you are feeling better soon. Your snow is pretty and I hope it gives you a chance to rest. Kim-- just a tale to share. When DH's dad passed as the oldest he was in charge. Well he was making payments to the IRS and when he passed we sent them a copy of the…

More snow this afternoon and SIL came over and moved snowblower to other garage so my car is in the garage wirh heat. DH keeps it about 60 so no more ice windows. My appointment at the employment office was interesting. The young girl doing the interview was surprised I had been at my job 37 years. Longer than she has been…

Pip--Good luck with colonoscopy. Because of family history I have one every five years. Heather--John is a great gift for the…

Not sure what happened to my post from yesterday. Anyway DH's surgery is scheduled for next Thursday Jan 16th. He had his preop done today so is all set. Doctor said he will only be in hospital over night. It is so cold and I do not like going out. Going to bed early as can't think. Blessings, Vicki GRAND ISLAND, NE <3

Well we lucked out and the major part of the storm went south of us. We got about 2-4 inches of snow, the wind helped spread it around. DGD and her husband came over this afternoon and cleaned the driveway and sidewalk, then salted everything. So we should be good to go in the morning. Then our oldest son and his wife came…

Been a quite day here. Storm started with sleet and now snow. They are saying up to 10 inches by tomorrow night. I just want to be able to get DH to doctor Monday at 8 so can get this hip surgery scheduled. Please take care and stay safe. Blessings, Vicki GRAND ISLAND, NE <3

Just lost my post. I am having trouble using the laptop. We are in a winter storm warning starting tonight. Went to the store this morning so we are ready. DES and DGD have checked to make sure we know they are ready if we need anything. We are Blessed. Kylia==Thanks for your message and I sent you an message. Lisa--Sorry…

Good evening dear ladies. It is a cold and deary day. Got my errands done and now just staying inside. DH had a bad night pain wise and then no one gets much sleep. The dogs know something is off and that makes them clinging. Monday can't come fast enough. Tracey--What you have done with the lights love so peaceful and…
