Well since I have not been around here lately, nor spent much time on the computer I thought I would grab my 45 minutes of nothing to do time and share it with the board. I need to read and catch up on posts. I hope everyone is well. I did read a Happy Anniversary to Donna! Twenty five years is something to be proud of today. Terry, so sorry to read about your dog being sick. Our Bingo is about 16 to 17 years and has gone down hill the last year. He needs to be let outside more, can not see much and has trouble hearing. He is the pickiest eater now. Not sure how much longer he will be around, we gate him from coming into the living room & dinning room now because of the stairs. Jdeb sorry to read that Eric was sick. Hope he is feeling better. Susan, you have every right to hit him and bury him. We will all be witness' if you need us. Margie, your son is back home? I guess I missed a lot. I thought he got remarried this spring? Bet you are glad to have Brock visit more! Patty, sorry for your families loss last week. Hope your FIL is feeling better soon. Karen, football, football, football........what more can I say? Sounds like Zack is keeping you all going or moving with his games. He sounds like an impressive young man. Grace, your hand sounds nasty. My MIL has to watch with the meds she is on she bruises so easily. Doctor just switched her off the Cumidin (spelt wrong, sorry) and is putting her onto Plavix. Everyone else I am so sorry. Like I said I need to read so many posts. I just quickly glanced at the last few.


Well life is about the same for me. Although last Friday I finally had a Friday to me......I took it and ran! One of my best friends who lives in Florida was in town for the week and we made plans to meet for lunch. Did my house work as quickly as I could and I picked her up in my mustang and I treated her to lunch. Yum! From there we came home to my place for some more conversation and some tea time. Picked up Katie from her friends home and drove Maria home. Did a quick change with Katie, dropped her off at a school dance, stopped at the bakery for some c*ke and headed back to Maria's moms house. We sat and chatted for hours. Just loved visiting with her and her mom. I promised her mom I wouldn't be a stranger. Bill picked Katie up for me so I had not time limit. I even managed to avoid the horse barn last weekend too. My FIL offered to take her out on Sunday morning so I quickly said yes! Work is busy with working 4 days a week but knowing I have this 4 day weekend made it easier to get through. I managed to work 30 hours in those 4 days and I was tiered this morning. But I got up and took my walk. Still walking with Aunt Linda..........we average 4 to 5 days in a row then take a day off. Feels good once I get my backside out of the bed and get going. Today was spent upstairs cleaning Katie's room, the upstairs bathroom, and my room. All dusted, vacuumed, and all my spring/summer clothes are badged and down in the basement. I left out several short sleeve shirts and several outfits that can go either way. Its too warm to pull all my winter stuff up. I think todays high was 78. Katie had a lesson today at the local barn, which I watched then left her there. She was asked to work a birthday party and it gets done at 8:00. The boys left for Maryland and should be home Saturday night. So thus my quiet house time. I figured since I walked this morning and I cleaned all day I was worth it, lol. I need to head out and pick her up in a minute. Will grab some Chinese food on the way home. Put my PJ's on and watch some What Not To Wear episodes and hit the sack early. This weekend is a horse weekend with a show on Sunday. So that mean Saturday and Sunday at the barn. But Monday is off and I hope to sleep in a little, and visit with my middle sister. Well that about rounds out my day. Hope you are all well. Thinking of you all and missing you!

Very glad that the end of the work week has finally come. It was a busy and long week on the work front. It was a busy but not a frantic Friday and the day passed quickly.

Whatever was bothering me let up and then hit me again this afternoon. Thankfully after two of the pills the doctor had prescribed it finally let up.

Didn't get much water into today and eating wasn't too bad. I hope it will be nice in the morning and I can get outside to get in a walk and maybe clear out my brain a bit.

My apple cake is baked for tomorrow and I'm going to head upstairs now and maybe do some meal planning for next week. Hope everyone has had a fantastic Friday!

Nice to come to the board and see posts from Sassy and Deb. Susan, hope your work day went well. Terry, I am so sorry about your dog. They really do become part of our families. Deb/MN glad you had a day off.


Same old thing here. I worked in CL, walked Bob, visited with my FIL a bit. DS doesn't have school on Fridays so he was home and it was nice to have a chance to talk with him some. He's still at that age where you never know if they are talking to you or not. I've
