Mama - hope you feel much better. :l

Rubes - how did the announcement go today????

Fennel - how's the knee??

Roger - hope you had a great day.

Gina - So sorry about your business. I'm sending prayers. Enjoy your time with your daughter. I know that is so hard having her grow up & leave. :upset:

Sun - how are you doing? Did you do something fun today???

Tony - you cracked me up yet again today. My hubby is in another state so he's not getting any. (Or he better not be!!!)

Mish - So great to hear from you! I'm so happy that things are going better.

ATL - I hope that you can just ignore that comment. Stupid of the husband to bring it home and SHE is not worth the trouble. Just because an ailment can't be seen doesn't mean that it's not there. Believe me, I understand, same issue with my husband. He looks fine.

Kelly - I was so very sorry to hear about your daughter's SIL. That is so young. Such a tragedy. My prayers are with you all.:l

Bird - did you ever get your drum solo video worked out? Where do you think you & the girls will go for your mini vacation?

I know that I'm missing people but I'm being called. Want to go ahead & post this before I lose it.

Loved the story of the car in the mud. Poor Clay. Where is Vicki? Is she ok? I keep trying to read back & find out but I can't find out anything.

Oh Bird - that is so sad. I'm sorry. Is he still working?
Be sure to let us know so we can vote on your vids.


Coco - I meant to tell you......I was really tired for quite a while. I've started taking more vitamins trying to get some energy. I think it might be helping. Let us know what the Dr has to say.

I'd take very good care of Tink and Ninny too! I could even bring my 2 goats for Ninny to play with.

Hey! What the...happened to the lengthy post I wrote yesterday? It should be right after this was posted, and appeared to have arrived safe and sound to me.

I wish I had the time to repost but am only dropping in briefly to check on how everyone is. So disappointed it's gone astray as I spent about an hour telling you all the news!

Guy, we've all been there...don't despair.

Hopefully will have more time tomorrow to tell you all the news...mostly good.

Love and hugs.

Mish;1261923 wrote: Hi beloved family. I know I've been AWOL for a while, and drop-ins may still be a bit erratic, as things are pretty hectic here. Until Ashe gets to see a psych and gets on Dexies, she's going to be struggling. I shared with her but we ran out a couple of weeks ago and I don't get my next script until Friday. I've been carrying the lion's share of work with the children...my poor washing machine, used to two small loads a week, has been handling three or more full loads a day. I've never hung up so much washing, brought it in and folded and ironed so much in my life. All that being said, I'm gloriously happy. The children are so well behaved! Chris started work yesterday. He's working at Veridian Glass...not sure what he does, but it's a job that can lead somewhere which is great. He didn't get into the army (as I knew he wouldn't) and although he was disappointed, he seems content with the present situation. He and I are building a relationship and he has some good qualities. He's terribly sensitive and quite self-absorbed, but he's starting to man up a bit.
In the past month since they've been here, Ashe has emptied my credit card to the tune of about sixteen hundred dollars. When she feels down, retail therapy helps her. She knows she has to stop the spending and start paying me back, but now Chris is working I expect he will help out. She can't spend any more, though, as my card is completely maxed out. I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing. At any rate, my card is now safely hidden away until such time as it's all paid back. Also, thinking of changing my PIN.

Kelly, I'm so sad at the loss of your daughter's SIL. Such a young age and so tragic for her husband and daughter. I lost my dearest friend at 43...she was a month older than I am, and it still pains me to think of it. She was recovering from the flu when her neighbour suggested she go for a walk with him and her 10 year old son to the river nearby. When they got there she said she felt tired and would just sit under a tree and wait while they walked further. When they returned they found her dead. She had suffered from heat exhaustion. I was so shocked when her 21 year old daughter rang me and told me. I told the girls that I was sorry, but I needed to go to the bottle shop and buy a wine cask. Instead of getting upset, they understood and even helped me to cry by bringing me letters she had written me and telling me stories about their memories of her. Ashe was 10 and Brooke was 14. Brooke is now 28 and has only just started to eat lasagne again...she couldn't eat it because the last time we had gone to Elaine's that's what she'd cooked. Elaine was gifted in so many ways...she's the only person I've ever known with a photographic memory and was always first in form in every subject...even Scripture, although she was agnostic. She and I cracked each other up in high school with our wicked senses of humour. I've really never laughed so much in my life. Her parents took her out of school at 15 to work as a Gaity Girl in their Old Time Music Hall. My father was so incensed at such ability and natural talent going to waste that he approached the school (private girls' school) and offered to pay her school fees. The school, likewise appalled, put the offer to her parents but they knocked it back. It was about $12 000 a year back in the mid 70's, so you can imagine what that over two years would cost now!!! Nonetheless, when she was of age she continued her education and rose to the top of her field. She was sent to head office in Canberra, and that's where she died.

Rog, sorry to hear things have taken a turn for the worse again, but as everyone said, you've weathered worse before and I know you'll reign triumphant over this.

Ruby, I do so love reading your posts. You are such a darling and we all look up to you with the deepest admiration and respect. Not to mention LOVE.

MB, lucky you (and Ruby) having men of such worth. As much as I adored my Brett, your Bret sounds like he has it all together. Mine didn't and still hasn't as I hear it. Drugs have taken hold, which is so sad. Again, such potential gone to waste. I'll never stop being sad about it.

Fen, balance in a relationship is key, and I'm so happy you and Mrs Fen have it. I've missed our Yahoo chats and am hanging around online for a while longer in the hope you might appear.

Nora, I'm so glad to hear you sounding much happier than you've been in a while. Keep on keeping on, sweet Nora.

Coco, B Group vitamins are really important for liver health, too. I'm thing of you for your Drs visit and hope all goes well.

Well, the 2 loads of washing on the line should e dry, so I'll bring them in and fold them and hang about hoping Fen turns up.

Love to you all.
Is this the post you're looking for?

Good morning to all - Mish - that was post #548 - as everyone has been so chatty it was a few pages back! Unless you had posted again. Thanks tawny

Well, another day - I am now on a 6 day run of work!

Bird - Satan is a dog.....LOL SO sad about your foreman though - :l to you and I shall put him in my prayers. Yes, do let us all know and we will vote on you in the contest!! I am sure you will do well.

Nora - did nothing out of the ordinary yesterday - hubs and I have been married too long to do anything special for V Day - in fact, he is one of those who thinks it is just a plot to get us to buy stuff! I wasted most of my day off and didn't do much on my list-of-things-to-do. There is always the next day right?

Hope everyone else is feeling good today. Good for you for another AF day Jan - I am SO proud of you! fen - hope the knee feels a bit better today..... don't try and push yourself.

Off to get ready for work. Have an awesome day everyone,

love, Sun XX

Hi all
Was thinking of your mishap Fenn, and dreamed I was rock climbing and very good at it haha.....also dreamed I heard a chicken out scratching in the yard, looked out the door and it was a turkey as big as me with coloring of a snow leopard. It had big paws though big as a bear but chicken toenails to scratch with. It flew and sat on the fence. Pouncer was afraid of it. Also dreamed the undersink cabinet was full of beer, which is where I stash beer I am not planning to drink. Was looking at the beer and counting them...yeah, my boss gonna work as long as he can since his wife doesnt have a job...I have a physical today(womens annual) such fun, then the wild bunch this afternoon (drums)....summer again here after 2 days of winter...later have a good day...pouncer farting like crazy

Bird, you have some really wild dreams! What did pouncer get into?

Sorry about your boss...how sad!

Bird, I call my dreams The Nightly Double Feature. I went to YouTube one day to see what Fen was talking about the cyst lancing, and had a horrible dream that night. But they were nightmarish. Wish I hadn't looked.
Mish, you are so beautiful! Was thinking of the pic of exes' GF, and wondering WHY!
Coco, what did you decide on the iron issue? Hope you feel better. Puffiness under the eyes also can mean low iron.
Fen, Mrs. is a penguin! :shocked: How scandalous! :H Hope the knee's better.
Sun, I'm tired just thinking of 6 days of work. You're so much younger than me, though.
I didn't go to the plant yesterday because it's a huge place and 99% men. Many who work for Hubs are very rough, and he just does not anyone there knowing anything about our private life. The few times I've been, (and I have to go in under escort each time) I've been in just a few places. Of all things, last night we spatted over the new car idea. He still is petulant because I won't consider a pick-up, which he's been pushing for 15 years. I don't want a new car, and prefer a Toyota 4x4 b/c mine has been so great for the last 17 years. Could still sell it in a second, and that car has lived a lifetime with me, never lets me down. Hauled everything i could pack in it, pulled out a dozen men during construction at the cabin.
Hubs made arrangements to be home on time tonight since we're eating at the CryptKeepers. I'll sit in the kitchen with the kids. Would rather beg off, but that's a bit TOO obvious.
Oh, and along with the Post Office dream, I have another recurring one of climbing to a great height on a small ladder, then being about 2' away from where I need to climb off. Always terrified of trying to reach over and make it to safety. And if I ever am threatened in a dream, my Daddy comes to save me. I like that one.
And Bird, thank you for always making me laugh with your environmental descriptions. Pouncer has gas?? :H:H:H

Morning everyone.

Tawny - thanks for finding Mish's post. I didn't know how to tell her that it was there.

Well - interesting conversation this morning. All these dreams. I used to have a recurring dream that I was swimming. Would start out nice - wonderful swimming and then the water ended up murky and on & on. Geez - I had that dream for years. Awful.

Good to see you Coco. :h

Fen - how's the knee?

Mom & Dad are still in bed. Almost 10:00 am now. I even stayed in bed until after 9:00. (You know that I only have a few more days of being lazy. :H)

Have a great day everyone.:l
