Frightful Friday indeed.........Happy Halloween everyone! Patty you posted some valid questions regarding our challenges and I can honestly say yes to each of those questions. Some days I need the help/support other days I feel over whelmed....while other times I definatly beat myself up mentally because I have fallen short of where I want and need to be. Life itself is not easy and we all have witnessed these last few weeks. It changes daily yet seems to have lasting effects beyond what anyone can imagine. Each day is a challenge in itself and if we survive another day then we have done well. My life just feels out of control and I know its minium compared to what others have going on. I am thankful we all are healthy, Bill and I have both sets of parents around, my kids are good kids, the business is doing well even though times are difficult out there, I have a job that pays (not much but it pays)giving me the chance to be close to home and flexible. I just need to work on myself which is difficult and as we all know comes last for many of us. I need to do some own personal reflections this weekend and figure out what I can do to make it better for me. My morning was upset with a stupid boss that called my house phone at 8:40 trying to get me into the office to type something for my closing. I did not answer the phone and let him leave a message, then he called my cell which I did not answer either. Then I saw him drive here, he must have gone for coffee and figured he would knock. I do not know if he stopped because I ran into the shower, lol. Stupid, like I was hiding. Anyhow my car is not here because took it to run a NYS inspection. I called the office a little while ago and well we have more trouble with the closing and I do not know what I can do to fix any of it and frankly I need to stop worring about it. Well I have the washer and dryer going, my beds are stripped and I am going to put the electric blankets on our beds. Its been a little on the chilly side at night and we keep the temps low at night. I need to run to buy some candy although I won't be home this afternoon when the little ones come around. But if Rob is home I better have some stuff to give the kids. Katie and I are going to head up to CT right after she gets out of school at 2:00. I will pick her up in front and we will jump on the Parkway from there. I am hoping to be in CT by 3:30, right around the time she gets home. Today is her last day at work and her actual due date is 11/2. Katie and I will visit with her tonight and our other sister will head up tomorrow and stay until Sunday evening. Sharon's husband is expected back from his DC Horse show sometime Sunday night. I have promises that tomorrow the appliances will go in. I wanted to give the cabinets another coat of Pledge today so I have lots to keep me busy. If it warms up I will throw my jacket on and grab a short walk in the crisp air. Hope you all have good days today and I will try and check in later if not then tomorrow.

Lori,


This is WRONG... I have had Brutus, black lab over 70lbs for nine years and despite his name would hurt NO one and is part of the family.
