    One Step at a Time - July 2013

    I will be back tomorrow......
    Hello Sweet Nora:

    Meaning to respond sooner. Just overwhelmed over here with kids stuf..

    Well, you know about my cousin....I think it might be almost harder to accept their deaths in that they were like siblings to us but with the unique twist of living with the 'other' parent...In my case this was my dad's brother...
    And they have simply been in our lives sooooooooooo long with all those family gatherings and gossip throughout the years.

    48 is incredibly young. Forgive me but I don't know how he passed. Patty was definately AL- her little body just gave out.

    I am wishing you peace and perspective. :h:l Seems we are all in this time of loosing someone close...It's tough getting older:l

              OH Pauly,
              don't give it another thought. I never "assumed" you though I was drinking. It is OKAY really.

              Watching "Green Mile" with a miagraine, SUCKS crying and hurting.

              Love you all,
              JDG

                Jeez...what a long day. We worked and worked and then went to Nana's for dinner and got home at 10
                it felt good to be outside, but I am sore!!
                Nana and Pop have owned this property since 1971 and hubs loves it. It's out in the country and on a lake. But, Lawdy...the work it takes!
                My hands are sore from pulling grass out of the water. It was just the four of us, and it was fun. I was pulling grass while Grant and Clay (17 and 21) threw mud balls at me. They are such big dorks!! But I treasure those days!!
                Bret drank his cold beer all day, and I had nary a one!!
                Pauly - friend request me on Fb, if you want. PM me. That's where Niner posted pictures of the fur baby.
                JDG...migraines sound so awful. I get headaches, but not migraines. Hugs
                Nora...please check in ok?
                Hugs to all including FT, Glass and Juja.
                oh well....it's Monday again......
                oh I have a wee vent
                so my son has changed schools for football. Every f**&^^%%$%$^^&ing time we turn around it's another $300. We had to buy him a $650 tablet. We had to buy $300 worth of football gear. Now it 2K for senior trips...I had a wee stressed out boo hoo yesterday and decided I will call my father for help. I hate to ask but her is very generous with the kids. I want Clay to experience a magical Senior year....a trip to NYC for a week....but I don't have that kind of money lying around.
                ok....rant over

                  Hello everyone......

                  Sorry that I haven't been around. We had the yard sale on Saturday and I was soooo busy!! But, we made almost $200.00!!! :dancin:
                  Yesterday was being a slug day. :H Went and got a pedicure, etc.

                  I'm doing better.

                  Kradle - thank you so much for your kind words. :l My cousin had been on HIV drugs for probably 20 years. They just eventually take a toll on the body. He told me in April when we were in Oregon for his Mom's memorial. He said that his organs were beginning to shut down. It has just been so sad. I have regrets that I didn't push my Aunt harder to get his contact information. It was just a situation where I think she was not saying out loud that he was Gay. So, it was just hard to talk about more than surface stuff about him.
                  But, we are going to have a Memorial for him in Pismo Beach in August. There will be one in Chicago where they lived but his partner wanted to have one here too. I'm so glad.

                  Ok - got to run to work. Haven't been able to read back. But, JDG - so happy for you that you are still being so strong. :h:h

                  Love & hugs.......

                    Hi gang,
                    I here just loving life and now home on days off and vacation until August 20th and yes I am NOT going anywhere... Going to go to bed late, get up late, read, do nothing, and of course some stuff around my house. Still going to do my treadmill and stuff like that.
                    My thoughts are with you all as I have read of some of you not having the greatest days, but I will get better.
                    Hugs and stuff to all of you.
                    FT
                    AF with a few speed bumps during 2014 & 2015 but will succeed.
                    As of 4/12/2014 I have not smoked at all and feel great.

                            Hi my lovelies

                            Mama ? sorry you?re having such a crap day. Believe me, I totally understand you about school costs! When mine were both in school about 10 years ago, I was paying about $11,000 a year each in tuition fees, $1000 each for uniforms and I was still constantly being asked for things like $350 for a new blazer and $250 for a hat (every time they lost one!) and $100 for each sports uniform (and they each played 3-4 different sports and every uniform was different!). Then we?d get random things like $90 for a senior jersey, hundreds for the senior formal, (plus $4000 for one to go to Samoa and $6000 for the other one to go to Europe). So rant all you like!!!

                            Nora and Kradle ? I hope you?re both coping as well as you can with your grief.

                            Hugs to everyone else. :h:h

                            I didn't come this far to only come this far.
