    The Journey begins here so get YOUR ASSES IN GEAR!!!! MARCH MADNESS

    My dogs have become magnets, but I think we're OK. It's hitting the Mall of Georgia right now, and there's another behind it, so prayers are good. I'm going to try to rest a bit. Have my flashlight.

        The Journey begins here so get YOUR ASSES IN GEAR!!!! MARCH MADNESS

        I really am worried about all the storms you're having over there and am praying that everyone will be safe. Over on the east coast here it's floods again, only New South Wales and Victoria are getting the worst of it this year. Here in the West of Oz the weather is glorious. However, water shortages are a constant threat.

        I'm slowly starting to get over James turning on me and relief I don't have to deal with him anymore is coming to the fore. Jacqui came over yesterday and she, Ashe and I compared our take on the events and all agree I mustn't get sucked back into the vortex as his lies, vile language and accusations and manipulative behaviour aren't worth me getting ill over. I've run the full gamut of emotions since Tuesday and when I broke out in shingles last night for the first time ever I knew it was time to close that book forever.

        While all your bulbs are coming up, mine are in the pantry in a string bag waiting for the weather to cool down enough for me to put them in the vegie crisper before planting them out. Our Summer is over...so depressing although Autumn is beautiful. I haven't done the front yard as I'd hoped to have done this past few months, but I think I've had plenty to keep me occupied.

        Anyway, having just spent most of the morning with Mother, who is feeling wonderful now radiation is done (naughty girl bought a packet of cigs today to have 4 or 5 a day to 'celebrate') and having spent $32 on cream for shingles which is driving me mad, I'm going to veg out and watch Pride and Prejudice...the BBC version, of course, and imerse myself in the company of folks of from times of long ago.

          OOOoooooo....I forgot to tell you about an experiencce I had regarding someone I've mentioned on MWO early posts in "On A Mish'n."

          Mike was my friend (I thought) who worked in management and knew all the details of the rogue guard who drove me to my breakdown, but didn't support me when I sued the company. Our parting words were"
          Mike: I don't think we can be friends any more.
          Mish: ......................(silence).........I don't believe what I'm hearing..............click (me putting the phone down on him slowly).

          About two weeks ago Mother rang and said "You'll never guess who called and asked me if you wanted to get in contact with him to give you his number.....the last person on Earth you'd think of."

          I didn't guess so when she told me it was Mike and gave me his number, I decided to call anyway, out of curiosity.

          He was very contrite, and apologised, saying he'd acted hastily and had regretted it ever since. Unlike the old Mish who would have gushed that it was ok, I told him how much that he had hurt me, that I had been a very good friend to him and had expected more from him. I felt very empowered by the experience. He asked if we could meet and I invited him here last Sunday afternoon. It went very well and it was good to catch up on lots of news and in the end he said he was so relieved that we were friends again.

          It made me realise how much stronger I am now. How far I've come. Woohoo, I am Xena.:cheering

            Hi all
            Good for you Mish, and I know it felt good...Weather moving in, bad north of here.we are gonna get it though. Looks kinda narrow on the radar but they say it will be here all night....Didnt get home till 11;30 almost last. Goober and Gomer werent there but two other guys were, so still 4 guitars playing at once. I ended up with $16 for 4 hours again. They raffled off 2 cakes, a stuffed dog, a tshirt, and a couple cds to get the money...cleaning and need to go to gym but dont want to leave the kids...later

                Glad you posted Sun. I was worried about you. Bird, where could you go to ride this out? I'm worried about you in your mobile home. Please be safe.
                Such a horrible night, and they're predicting more outbreaks like this possible through June. Hubs has gotten completely serious about installing a completely underground shelter. It's the only place you're really safe. So much destruction, so many deaths. I couldn't sleep last night since one line followed another. I can only pray that you are all safe and they find no more fatalities. If you can, please donate to the Red Cross. I know how it feels to lose everything, and we only had family to help us back then. Whole towns are gone.

                  Yes Rubes, I was reading about it on-line this morning - we were fine - it was nowhere near us. If you don't have a basement, an underground shelter isn't a bad idea! We do have a basement but rarely go to it when the tornado siren sounds - I think with what was coming over in those towns though, we would have !! It is awful for those folk - I just can't imagine...... stay safe....:l

                    Mish, dealing with James sounds sort of like pulling off a bandage - it REALLY hurts for a minute, then it's basically over but the healing. Of course you have mixed feelings, but time will help, and one day maybe you can look back with the same perspective your loved ones have and wonder why you wasted your time. You have a great support group, too. So glad about your Mom, and reconnecting with your old friend. Life is finally giving back to you what you've always given others, and I'm so happy for you!

                      Mish - I am so happy you reconnected with an old friend and you handled it with so much grace. I am terribly sorry about James.
                      Weather is fine here, but I am thinking of all of you!
                      Mish - Bret gets shingles and they are AWFUL......take care
