I love all of you too! Boots, talked to More2 today, she's so glad you are going to rest up in her place. I had no idea of the things you'd been thru, we really need to all meet up, I have some childhood abuse issues myself, and its hard, hard to get rid of the feelings. I didn't go thru what you did, but it was very upsetting...we'll talk in person sometimes, at More2's pool! Nibs, call me collect even when you get in from camp, I'm sleeping in, in the morning, I'm pooped out! LUV, have a great weekend, and know you are loved too! Where is Bird? Cowgal, you are in great company and among many friends here, I'm proud you are sober right now, every positive step deserves many, many pats on the back, one day at a time ya know. Love again to all, will check in tomorrow.

Top of the morning
What a wonderful day for BearJr and his lovely bride !!! I'll be thinking about you all as you join hands in marriage.. "God Bless" xxx

Well, I'm just waiting for my laundry to finish it's wash cycle then I'll pop it out on the line. When the sun burns off this fog it'll be dry. #1 son it at work until 12, then will shower up to be dropped off at his girlfriends. It is so handy having her live along the way to camp. They have a full day planned. Amanda is in the dance squad, so they will be doing a recital today. Gosh Ryan is alot more patient than his father... I couldn't imagine hubby sitting through 4 hours of watching dance... Giggle, Giggle. And, Ryan even enjoys shopping along with Amanda...hmmm.. gosh, I barely get into a store and hubby is easing his way to the check-out !!!
So, I have a ton of stuff to do in a short period of time, so I thought I'd stop by real quick. Love you guys, Hugs, xxx

here's to weddings, camp, wonderful weekends, rehearsals, shopping, kids running around, new starts on sober land, tex sleeping in, more2's extreme generosity and a hot day in the desert. just up and drinking my tea. am i one of those strange women yep that carries tea bags, the good kind. i was stuck once in a town that only carried lipton. no offense i grew up on lipton but now well have refined my tastes. so yes i found i had 5 tea bags on me. and i slept so nicely last nite. it's amazing when you aren't taking care of everyone around you and can be alone just how nicely you can sleep. wow, it is so beautiful. you know rhonda lenair said i needed to have alone time. and well i haven't done it in say 9 years. and she is right. this is going to be my new script. i am now contemplating a vacation like a mini one that i can take and go take a book and well i think kaui would be nice. hubby is so fun he's had like 3 vacations with guys already this year. and i'd like to have vacation with myself. i know doesn't that seem like the oddest thing you have ever heard of? but it would be so stress free. i can't explain it. but it seems like heaven. and since rhonda well since all i ever thought of was work before now i am thinking i really would like to know what else in life would be fun now. hahahaa so i think i'll start those italian tapes this week. yipppeeee. and i brought a novel with me for pool time today. well, must shower up and call more 2 love you all. then coming back but i do have to work a bit but then on to that ken folliett novel and i mean novel. oh joy joy.. i'm having a life. my behind is healing up. i have two weeks to heal it before the next round. and my dr. gave me a script for darvacet so i can make it through the next three sessions. oy veh.... but then tex and you'll get this nothing will ever fall lol. i was talking to lori sunshine tho yesterday and i told her the most ironic thing happened the day after my little surgery thing. i received notice on estate stuff from attorney and in that letter it said basically as one of my step brothers is the executor for his mom's estate that you have to have faith and put your full trust in blah blah. and i started laughing...... i felt like crossing those lines out but i didn't. i just did in my head. i said well i'll turn my shares over to him but after laying on that table these many times i think we've reachede a point where giving faith and full trust is just not going to happen ;(. ironic isn't it? ahhh forgiveness and completion. so good for a new day love you all family

Hey I travel with tea also. We take a picnic basket when we go places and theres always a couple of my favorites in there....We went to see Indiana Jones today. It was OK but not worth 30 bucks I spent. It was so damn hot here though I just wanted to go somewhere and the theatre is always freezing....about the phone, I dont really hate talking on it but I don't like calling for some reason it always makes me paranoid. I dont like calling to make appts or anything like ordering pizzas. A weird phobia huh???Think I'll go sit outside awhile. Its about time for the hummingbirds to come to the feeder..bird

Good moring all, I am anxious to hear how the wedding went yesterday. Hope it was all you both were dreaming of.

Hi all
Well the wedding was just beautiful. Lots of scripture instead of traditional ceremony. They said their own vows. BearJr promised to love her as Christ loved the church. Who could ask for more than that. Part of the ceremony was them kneeling and saying a prayer for each other. We didn't hear what they said, but what love and spirit. You could have heard a pin drop the whole time they were praying (allowing for little bears being young and vocal). As I was driving the two hours to measure for alterations on Mrs gown, I sang hymns in the car for the first time in a long time. I felt a very strong drive to go see Dr to get meds. I'm so resistant to Dr visits ( have had two different drs be inappropriate in their office and examining room) I trust this Dr completely and am so glad I went. they have made great strides in medication I need during stressful times. I started taking them on Friday and have good results. Today is my bday. So, so old. I like to stay with my feel-like age of twenty-something. I will meet with the DA tomorrow to discuss charges. Please send a few extra heavy prayers that I do all God asks and no more. Thanks for all your love and support. It helps so much.

Know you are loved
Bear Lady

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BEARLADY!!!!! You sound strong! I know the wedding was hard for you, I am glad it was so lovely. My thoughts and prayers will be with you tomorrow as you meet with the DA. I can only imagine how tough that will be. Hope the kids spoil you today for your b-day.....
