      I miss Kradle too!!! I think she's very busy with the Christmas activities for the girls.

      Mama - how are you doing? I've been thinking about you all & Pop. :l

      My FIL is not doing well either. The nurse is coming to the house today to check on him and talk to Scott & his sister. He needs help moving from bed to bathroom to chair to bathroom, etc.
      He had a beer yesterday. But, that was it. Hopefully, since he can't get up and walk to the kitchen, they'll be able to keep him at one beer a day. He had been drinking so much everyday - starting at about 10:00 am until he went to bed. We were hoping that since he has been in hospital then nursing facility since October 21, he wouldn't start up again.

        I hope you made it to the bathroom Mama! Last week I took an antibiotic on an empty stomach and it wasn't pretty. Had to do a very fast walk to the bathroom. My dad has tinnitus in the ear that is deaf. He still gets very disoriented and dizzy because of his partial deafness. Poor guy. It sure doesn't stop him though. They are currently on yet ANOTHER vacation. Must be nice.

        I can't wait to get back to Jax tonight! :h:h:h I LOVE his mother too. I'm strangely attracted to her as well. Like G-man told me, I don't seem too fussy in that regard. HAHAA
        :heart:I love my daughter more than alcohol:heart:

        Believe in yourself. You are stronger than you think.

          Mama - thanks for sharing....NOT! Are you sick or just was annoucing the bathroom break?

          Nope - I'm not at 100 days yet. Tomorrow is the day. You know I don't really count days but I figured it out yesterday. I counted about 4 times because I couldn't believe it. :H

            I am so thrilled for you Nora
            I made the bathroom comment since K9 mentioned my watermelon comment from last night. I made chili and overate!!
            Gemma is cool K9...a hot 50'ish MILF, and I love her clothes. Her hair is a bit sketchy though.
            Nora - Pop basically, sits, breathes, poops and pees. That is literally it. We are taking good care of him, but Nana is stressed over the money and complains incessantly. We just try to be supportive.
            Hubs and I wish he would peacefully pass in his sleep...I may go to Hell for that one, but that is honestly how I feel
            Liz(?)...so soory about your pup. We loved on K9 when Sandy left us this summer AND she broke her foot and we will be there for you
            PLEASE tell me someone knows a cure for ringing ears!!! I guess I'll follow Poppa Niner's example and tough it out......but's it's so damn irritating

                  Ringing in the ears

                  Mama - I understand about just praying for him to pass peacefully. I know how it was at the end when my Dad couldn't breath. We knew he wasn't going to get better. I prayed for God to take him from his suffering. :h:h I love you friend. :l

                          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.

                            OMG - This place is busier than The Nest !!

                            I am sorry I haven't checked in. Nora's right.. The girls are keeping me in crack cocaine mode... I got the call yesterday that they had made it in to The Sounds Of The Season again- that performance competition. There were over 50 acts and they picked around 25 so I am way proud of them!

                            K9, Thanks so much for thinking of me. I know this sounds silly but I feel so close to everyone here that sometimes I just forget that you all don't live next door and know what the hell is going on in my life... How's THAT for self Absorbed!
                            I watched your recommended Orange is The New Black Netflix Series and all I can say is "I'll be hearing NO MORE talk of your entering The Department of Corrections                             unless your dropping off flowers..." OMG, What a SHow!! I am totally Hooked... When the heck is Season 2 out? I can't believe they ended it up that way!!

                            Liz, you really got hit six ways from Sunday with all that. How old is your puppy? I do want to put a positive spin on your daughter though as I will most likley be in your boat times 2 in about 10 years....Okay so here's the WIKI on St. Lucia:

                            Where can you wake up to a symphony of birds and drive through a volcano? Only on St. Lucia island! St. Lucia stands apart from the rest of the Caribbean islands thanks to its varied landscape and diverse culture and cuisine, which is distinguished by African, Indian, Caribbean, British, Spanish and French influences. You can explore everything from the Piton Mountains and rainforest to the Sulphur Springs of Soufriere and the Caribbean coral reef on this 238 square-mile island in paradise. There are so many reasons to choose St. Lucia island!

                            Now who doesn't want to wake up to A symphony of birds? Hmmmm?
                            I figure it has about a 3 month half life or a 50% Fibonacci Retracement (as we say in the trading game ) which means she will be home in about 90 days and in the mean time I say, book a trip through SandalsResort.com and Enjoy!

                            Nora...My Love...what can I say....I am NOT worthy...You make it look Easy Peasy!

                            Mama, I know that when my mom was at that stage, I did find it easier to make peace with her inevitable passing because I too wanted her to be out of that 'condition'. Still, it was SO hard to let go. She was still my mom.
                            Sending waves and waves of Daimoku to you:h

                            Shelby- It's so good to see you again. I followed your journey before as my beloved puppy's name was Shelby named after that great character in Steel Magnolia's. I am definately going to try This Christmas Crack...and yes, my kids passed out the first time they say me baking too!

                            Pauly...Okay, You are now officially the 7th person who has succumbed to whatever it is that is taking us all down like flies here... So far, I am dodging the bullets but I am also a juicing maniac right now and I am drinking a lemon in warm water EVERY morning...sounds awful I know but last year I had Pneumonia and THAT was about as pleasant as sitting through The Nutcracker AGIAN...:wow:

                            Dottie- 100 days done and dusted as you say! JUst want to congrats again. And I am sorry it's winter there before the official bell. I was thinking about the heart palp...MossRose had anxiety questions on another thread and she talked about Palpitations...Could that be a factor? :l

                            Okay- Matt Update- I love his couselor there. She calls to update us every week. He is still in crazy denial land: He accused a boy of assaulting him, sexual aggression and bullying from other kids, most of which he backtracked on when he was confonted...still it is chilling to read his emails- They range from "I'm being persecuted like Jesus here" to "Can you buy me a coyboy hat and some Chaps?" I mean Fuck Oh Dear!!

                            Unitl he starts participating in his own 'awaking' so to speak, his counselor doesn't want phone calls yet though he is convinced that in 3 weeks we will all be Kum-by-whoing on a conference call. I am packing Christmas and Birthday gifts for him...yes, his birthday is on the 23rd-His counselor is calling for our weekly check in that day so I can have some...connection, I guess is the word I am looking for. I got him the gift every kid needs who has been denied a cell phone for 10 months...A WATCH! I was pretty proud of myself for coming up with that. I also got him a power yo yo, some coybow kerchiefs, a real leather belt and a Hacky Sack...Took a bunch of photos last night of Luna and the girls to pop in his Christmas and Birthday cards....He will be 15:upset:

                            Okay, I am getting upest now so I'll sign off and put one foot in front of the other..
                            Love you all :h
