    The Journey begins here...So Get your ass in gear for 2011

    Ruby - sorry, I don't want to camp. You are going to have to find me a spot on the floor somewhere please. Oh never mind, I forgot that I'm living in the closet with the other shy ones. :H:H

      Nora, there will be an air mattress in the closet, and if there's not enough room, I'll find another 'private spot'. Hey, you left me off the shy list. Don't ya'll think I'm shy?? :H I don't camp anymore, but I used to. OH! The stories I could tell. It was loads of fun, and my daughter's fam does it now. Son has a huge camper, daughter has a VW with a pop-up (hey, that's an idea for more sleeping space!) No worries, there will be plenty of places INSIDE to sleep.

        Bird - hope work goes ok. It does make for a long day if there isn't much to do.
        Vicki - really scary about the fire. Thank goodness that no one was hurt and that your home didn't burn.

        Ok - so, let's make a list of all they shy ones:
        NoraC
        Sunshine
        Grateful
        Bird

        Ruby - is the closet big enough to hold the 4 of us?

        Have a fantastic day everyone! I'll catch you all later.


        PS - Stirly - thanks for the post. I didn't have any idea how to help. I had tried to delete a thread I started once and it didn't work.
        Nora, I'm shy too!

        I will sleep beneath a glass table, however ...perhaps I'm a little less shy than you closet sleepers! I would also sleep in a tree house, but only if Ruby's little troupe of teacup yorkies don't go crazy thinking they've "treed" some exotic critter!

          Pop -up camper? That's not camping, that's like staying at a Holiday Inn!

            I've been reading back, but I can't find anything about Vicki's fire. I hope she, Paul and pup are okay!

We went to Walmart to grocery shop, came home and our land is on fire and spreading rapidly. We called the fire department and they sent out 2 trucks to get it all put out. It burned our whole front yard and about 5 acres! So thankful it did not reach the house though! I guess I lost all my fruit trees and the 8 bradfords at the front of our yard. After all that drama, I come here and find that I have a pm from someone who thought I was wrong to make a public apology to Kate, so I went in and tried my best to delete the post, but couldn't figure out how. Can anyone help me? I feel as if I am going to cry! I love you all! Vicki

              Hi, Fen...here's Vicki's post about the fire.......she is certainly lucky it didn't reach her house.
              Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. Leave the rest to God.

                  Awwwh, friends, I've slept in a hammock on the porch, happily, up there. Love the cool nights. And there's nothing like sitting around a bonfire when there are no outside lights anywhere near. Oh, and s'mores! I can OD on them.
                  This is how Jack came home from school the other day, but with duct tape covering the tear. No idea how he did it!

                  That's Ry behind him.

                    I wonder how in the world he did that! Glad it was only the pants and not a cut on him!

                      Good morning, family. Stirly, thank you for your advice. Grateful, thank you for the beautiful pics! It looks like you don't have any close neighbors either. I'm so thankful you didn't have to go to work today. Stay warm and safe, my dear friend. Bird, so glad you feel better. Ruby, I will sleep outside! It seems like every time I open my mouth, I say the wrong things, maybe I should avoid talking! Hubby would LOVE that! It appears that Paul's cousin, our neighbor from up the road threw a cigerette out and with the wind blowing, it burned about 6 acres! I am so thankful and blessed to have a home to wake up in this morning. I'm feeling pretty down and out today, so probably won't get back on. Gonna practice keeping my mouth shut! I hope everyoe has a good day! Love you all, Vicki
                      I'm not what I should be, I'm not what I could be. I'm definetly not who I want to be,
                      but I'm sure not who I used to be!

                      There is no pit so deep that God's love is not deeper still.

                          Vick, when I went to rehab, there was a young woman who took an instant dislike to me, and acted in a way I've never seen. She actually went to everyone, including my roomate, trying to recruit them against me by twisting my words incredibly. I couldn't understand why the counselors let it go on, it was so obvious. Finally, I just said 'screw it, I'm going home'. Turns out the staff had been watching the whole thing play out, and called me in before I could get to the phone. Everyone was there. They asked me to try an exercise, not speaking a word for 24 hours. It was the MOST valuable thing I did there. It drove my tormentor crazy. And i could SEE more, think about how I might have responded, but my idea changed as I kept quiet and thought about it. It was a great tool. Unfortunately, the young woman failed, and the last time I heard, was living on the streets. I get NO consolation from that, because I found she was concentrating SO hard on me and trying to get the better of me, she didn't learn anything. I'm in no way saying you need to not talk; just what happened to me, in that situation. It all came down to focus, and why I was there. Quit wearing your heart on your sleeve, hon! And yes! A hammock is great sleeping. May do it myself.
                          Fen, the closet's crowded, and under the coffee table is too confining, but I have a great big, antique claw-foot bath tub I've gone to sleep in MANY times!!! :H
