Oh Karen...

I got your little package today in the mail... and I am looking forward to my reading, especially with THE lunch being tomorrow.... (think of me and how many shades of red I may turn tomorrow afternoon)... and with Joey's comments today to LOL at, and with the stress I had at work today, well... I'm looking forward to the reading...
I did not see a couple of pages though and was hoping you could scan those and email them to me... pages 402 and 403 are missing... would you mind? :)
Thanks again for thinking of both Joey and I... I was surprised with the extra pages you included... had I told you when the other's birthday was?
*hugs*

One more... today...started out shaky as I discovered a large oil leak beneath my car... my Mom graciously volunteered to take it in so I can prepare for a meeting with some external people tomorrow... Joey starts complaining that his throat is sore again... but he's not feverish, nor is he acting sick... he's acting like he doesn't want to go to his school/summer camp... oh yeah, and did I mention the meeting tomorrow... is a full day with external contacts and I didn't know going in what they were bringing, so didn't know how much prep needed to be done... so right there, three decent size stresses... not to mention that Joey was starting back at the summer camp he went to last year, but was pulling the I want to go to Grammy's thing...
So, get Joey dropped off... he was a little clingy, but managed to get off fine and had a great day.
I NEVER said you weren't being patient, in fact, you ARE being patient! Relationships come best with patience (in my opinion.....) and you're not rushing it.
(Neither are you, Karen!)
Maybe one day we'll all meet somewhere (Disney??) with husband #2, and maybe Julie will have another Joey. I, myself, am done with the kid thing. I'm too freaking old for another one.
Speaking of old....... we went to Red Robin this weekend for dinner and the wait staff all wear a button that says "We card anyone younger than 39 1/2" so I said to Rosie, "They can't card your mother, I'm 2 1/2 years over that" and she just laughed. The Gracie chimes in very seriously with "Mom. You don't LOOK 42."
Ugh!

Ew, I'm also an overanalyzer. I'm trying hard NOT to, though. Too much stress with the overanalysis because Occam's razor usually does apply!!
K.I.S.S.

*LMAO*
When sweetie and I first started working together, we all had group offices. We weren't in the same one, but theirs was the biggest, so it was the hangout (not to mention that I shared with an old biddy and she'd SHUSH us all the time for talking in "her" office.) So on a regular basis, his wife would call him and if he didn't answer the phone, she'd call around the office until someone answered (great thing about those sequential number phones... or is that a drawback??) and then grill them as to his whereabouts. "Um, he's IN THE LAB, doing his JOB?"
She never had anything important to say, just keeping track of him. I think it was so she'd know where she could be seen in public with her flavour of the week and not be caught!
Funny, he wasn't aware of how bad it was until after the divorce and I spilled the beans. We all KNEW she was nuts, so we just didn't bother him with the info.

Aw, Karen, are you gone already???????
*pout*
What will this thread be without THREE posters?????

So I'm in overanalysis mode......
This thread has 170+ posts. Is it the longest?????
Looks like it. I find an 88 (roll call), a 55, a 59, some 40s, but this is the first over 100!!!! (at least in the 3 years I scrolled back)

*psssst* Julie!
Did you and Joey eat out tonight????
~calla~ mom to rosie and gracie
I really do hope that we get to meet each other before I'm on H#2 with another little one at Disney... you know... another one, with the right person could be a nice thing... not that I want to rush into that either, but... its a thought that still makes me smile, which tells me I'm not done yet...
When preggie with Joey, I called it all wrong... I saw him as being a girl... with enough of xh's red hair that made her strawberry blonde and green eyes... I was wrong on all counts... boy.... blond (now dirty blond) hair, with chocolate brown eyes... but... perhaps there will be another, oh someday...
OK... so, anyway, out of dreamland :)
Yeah, it was ~really~ funny... and sad in some ways... I mean, you are at work.... not at home... don't act like you need a room or some private time at work... because, um, you're at work :)
I understand what you mean about calling around the office till you get someone.
