One Step at a Time - December 2013

Good morning my friends. Woke up today in a pretty good mood ready to take on the day. Got a phone call from the realtor in Florida for the in laws house. We got a pretty decent offer, but they want to close by the end of the month. I know it's good but man I just want to cry. So hard to let go. So we may have to go back down one last time to close, if I can get the time off. Crazy. Hubby's have a real hard time with it too.
Pauly, I go through those blahs too, maybe it's just cause its getting dark earlier, who knows. I agree Nora's been quiet. Hope you're ok, Nora.
Well crockpot is cooking dinner, spare ribs. Off to run some errands. I'll check back in later

Good morning,
Feeling pretty good, have started my exercise routine again and have some sore muscles but feel good. Changing my diet a little and loving being healthy. Going to have a positive outlook on things as i purge the issues that I have been dealing with the past 2 years and the layoff even tho it stinks feels like a huge weight has been lifted.
Thanks for all the support you guys give as with you here I will survive.

Good morning friends!

Liz, I am glad everything checked out ok...that's a huge relief! I hope Tony is doing well this morning with his procedure. I'm sure he will check in when he can.

FT - Those sore muscles are probably from all the checkers you've been playing! :goodjob:

Nora - We're starting to worry about you...:huggy We just love you...so please let us know what's going on! :h

Mama - I'm sure your tenants are the same demographic that I'll be running into at the jail, IF I ever get over there. How is Papa Bears hand? And how are Clay and Grant doing? Did Clay and Trina get back together? Sorry I'm so nosy, but you know I am! ha

Hi Alls, Pauly, and everyone else...it's ALMOST Friday! Woot woot! My boss is off tomorrow so I'll have lots of time to relax. HA

Love y'all!

sorry...th ephone had the nerve to ring and I had to answer it....
Let's see......Pop is declining daily as far as his mental faculties are concerned. He is frail and weak, but he is still kicking. We have no idea what to expect as far as how long he will last.
Clay and Trina are NOT back together, bt I suspect they will be. She is a terrbile mess......remember your first break up??? Clay asked me to stop talking to her for now, so I am respecting his wishes. I guess they talked briefly last night.
Papa Bear's hand still has stitches, but I told him they looked hot since he has big man hands and it looks like he just got out of prison. Your kind of fella , K9!!!:H:H
Peacefully quiet day at work, so we are putting up tree and playing Christmas music. It's actually putting me in the Christmas spirit. Pandora just played Mr. Grinch and it brought back sweet memories of Papa Bear (Bret) rocking newborn Grant (my 21-year old) and singing...."you're a mean one, Mr Grinch..." as that was the only song he knew. So sweet.......
YAY LIZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nora...we love you no matter what, but you have us all worried sick. We all know each other TOO well.........:h
Dottie...yoga sounds like bliss about now.
Pauly - hope Louie is ok....

Thanks for the updates Mama!

Sierra/Adina/WHN is doing particularly well these days, so I am just going with the flow and enjoying her good mood while it lasts. My sister has been spending a lot of time with her too. My sister has SIX boys, so she treasures her girl time with Adina. They are going to Starbucks after school today to hang out. I'm so fortunate that I have my family. My parents are doing good too, they went out to a huge seafood dinner last night with their friends...I swear their social lives put me to shame. So knock on my head (wood) that all is well for now.

Nora...we love you girly!

It's been a long time since I played so much and body may have been a "little" out of shape... :-)

Quick check in from work. Haven't had a chance to read everything from today but will catch up later. Just wanted to say that I'm fine! Thanks for all the love & concern but I'm fine. :l:h I didn't even realize that I was that quiet. Just not much to say I guess. :H
I have not TTFP for the last 2 days. I might take it but just haven't. Been doing a lot of thinking.......maybe that is why I've been so quiet. Just been thinking. For some reason, the drinking just doesn't have that big of an attraction for me. Very strange. Whenever I think about it, I think about how awful I will feel and what a waste of time it will be. I don't know where this is leading but I'm doing ok. I know that I should TTFP but my mind is in such a strange place, I just haven't.
I came across an e-mail from my husband from 2006. Guess what? He was talking about me drinking to death. So, I can honestly say that I'm in a much different place these days than I was.
Things are good. I think I'm just low key because of Scott being gone and things like that. But, things are good. I'm in a good place actually.
I was in the chat room last night with Sol & Pro and Bran New Day. It was nice. Even RubyWillow was there for a bit. So, I'll be checking in there everynight. Keeps me busy. Busy is good.
Love you all. Will be back when I can talk. :h

So glad things are good Nora! Sorry to be such a nag, but you know how we worry. And you KNOW we'll love you no matter what's going on...we just want to be here for you! :h

I had a message on FB last night to get into Chat on MWO, but I can't from my iPad for some reason! Plus it was time to read, so I'm sorry I wasn't there. I will try to figure out how to get to it from the tablet. I've been so sidetracked with Netflix lately, I haven't even played Candy Crush in like 10 days....I probably have 100 lives I could use. LOL

Books are my main addiction right now...I've got some good ones! ointup:
