Yep, many doc's aren't very educated in addiction are they? Sometimes it has to be up to us to educate the professional's and steer them.

All the best with your journey Sun.

LOL G - nice to see you here - if I hadn't have been so dumbstruck I would have said something. It was only afterwards that the whole situation struck me as really funny!!! Usually I am the first one to speak up with my docs - I get them trained so well - but this was so ridiculous that I couldn't think of a thing to say! Hope all is well with you - hang in there - love and hugs,

Good evening, dear friends. We ended up with 9" of snow! Crazy...it started around 7am yesterday and didn't stop until around 9pm. I went to work for about 4 hours....it was a nightmare getting home and I saw some nasty accidents. Sometimes the snow had freezing rain mixed in which made the roads really bad. Then we went to a birthday party in the southern part of the county and they barely had any snow! We're only talking about 1/2 hour away. Of course, we lost electric...about 10 hours total. Today it was on and off most of the day....I am tired of setting all the clocks over and over again. I'm seriously thinking about kidnapping Addy and moving South....who will have me?

Rubes....Tay's kitten is so tiny....I bet taking care of that little baby helps her with all the stuff going on with her Mom. Please give her a hug for me and tell her that she and JC are welcome to stay with me anytime they want to take a road trip! Sounds like you had so much fun last night at the party.

Swannie.....how have you been? Don't you think it's time you moved over here with the rest of us? You could have snow with me or sun & beach with Jan or Roger...beautiful mountains with Ruby...the options are endless!

Sunny-I have to admit that I thought last night we had to turn the clocks back too....my calendar said so but I didn't read the "fine print" (oh...I didn't have my glasses on either) and it said European Daylight Savings Time.....I wondered why I hadn't heard it on the news. So your doc's solution to not drinking is to not buy alcohol??? Wow-I never would have thought of that! BTW-I've missed talking with you...I have been so super busy at work and then I bring work home and still have my own stuff to do. Today I had planned on taking a break in the afternoon....but no, I cleaned the house, did 7 loads of laundry....cooked lasagna, cleaned my office and then went thru the piles of paperwork on my desk. I even started at 7:30 this morning and am just now, at 8pm able to sit down and relax. I'll probably be asleep within the hour!!

I haven't talked to Vicki too much....a few emails and texts because I've just been working so much...but I do know that she has a physical therapist come to her house...I think every day....to work with her hand that had surgery. She is going home to Jackson tomorrow because Paul has a job there and she has a doctor's appointment. I think she will be back on Wednesday. She did send me a beautiful picture of her trees turning colors and the bright sunshine and I sent her some pics of the snowstorm!

I wonder how Georgie is.....is she in New York or New Jersey? I think part of New Jersey got hit much harder than we did here and I guess the New England states.

Has anybody talked to ATL? Maybe I didn't read back far enough....but I hope she is feeling better.

Jan...I sympathize with you about your son.....I don't remember worrying as much about my 2 older kids as I do with Jeremy. I just keep praying that he will be safe and make the right decisions....

Think I'll try to read some more of a book my daughter gave me...the new Nicholas Sparks' book. i just love his books!

I hope y'all have a GREAT night and sleep well. I'll try to check in more often......

Love & Hugs.

Happy Halloween, my peeps! I'm going to get an early start on my trick or treating...I think I'll avoid your neck of the woods, grateful...don't want to freeze my tail off or break my neck on an ice covered tree!

Maybe I'll head over to mama's house and see what's shaking...then hit Sun's place. Maybe she'll have some squirrel treats out back. Then, over to Rog's place for some avocadoes.

Morning everyone - I MUST stop these 12 hour sleep nights! It is really annoying that I am wasting so much time asleep! Guess I am trying to avoid life right now. Try and be positive right? Right! Need to change my attitude. Life really is good!! Hope everyone has a wonderful day. love and hugs to all,

love, Sun XXX

Hey guys. Busy as a, well you know all the sayings. Swapped a beautiful maple dining room suite, with arm chairs, and a 3-door china cabinet for an Empire style sofa Ex-B had bought (redoing my living room), and it caused WW10 with Tay. She says it's her mommas and we have no right to move it. So I told son, just forget it, don't want a problem, take the dining room stuff anyway. He wouldn't hear of it, loaded up the couch and sent it home with me. Also gave son part of my inheritance land I share with bro and sis. Now HE can do the upkeep, deal with my siblings. I'm not worried since, like his Daddy, he can say 'kiss my ass' in 4 languages. We're done and out of it now. I DID (steal) the family table from the cabin, since it was leaking all over it. Hubs was not happy, but as I told him, I've always had to deal with bro and will not back down. I'm NOT taking it back. It's rightfully mine, and I'll bring in another table to ruin if he wants. Also got a church pew that at least 7 generations of my family have been on from Aunt's, and a couple of very old upholstered chairs to do my living room. People don't want things till I get them. Son laughed when he loaded the table and said 'He's (bro) has been very nice to me till now. Guess that will change since I'll be dealing with him and he can't ask to swap land with you!' Hard to describe it all in a few works here. But I'll survive it, always do. Think that's what infuriates bro. SO, I only have one property left jointly owned with him. SWEET!
Anyway, sorry to pour out my life. Jan, I'm sorry Brett is sick, but they're always sicker anyway, right? As to the job, do what you feel is right, and if you change get guarantees, in writing. Know what you're getting into, right? You'll do the right thing.
Grate, thanks for the update on Vick. Wish we could hear from her. It's VERY chilly here (of course this old high-ceilinged house) but it does warm up, and no snow. Wondering about Tony, you, Georgie, RC, anyone in the path of this crazy storm. You know how to find me, right?
Sun, guess you're working like crazy as usual. I'm trying so hard to rest. Not easy for me, and weekend was emotional. I think you have such a great handle on your life.
Fen, acorns are falling here like bombs!! How bout Tick Hollow? Lots of squirrel food on the ground?
T, just glad you've got so much work your days get mixed up. Miss you, brother.
Swanny, hope you're still hanging around. We could sleep for days at the cabin and really get some rest!
Guitar, so good to see you check in with us. Always love your humor!!
Tons of paperwork, phonecalls, to make and return, and problems to solve, so will check in soon.

You're all doing better than me at the moment, Sun. That's not a complaint, anyone. Just too much to do and keep up with. Plus there's a very personal issue (not hubs) I won't post about here. Sorry to be so enigmatic, just something I have to handle on my own. And you seem to have discovered how to keep energy when we're OLD!! :H
