        Went out to lunch then the plant sale. Bought some veggies and herbs. Will get them in the ground tomorrow. Lots of sunshine and nice weather today. Love this time of year.
        In for the night so maybe someone else will show up to chat.

          Finally woke up from a 2 hour nap. Went in & heated some leftovers for Mom (my niece had made a chicken pasta dish). Mom said over & over (and over....) that wasn't this something, I come up here and cooked for her and I am not eating. I kept telling her that this is what Kris had made and that I'll eat later.

              Dottie - so glad that you have good weather FINALLY!!!! Enjoy planting.

              Mama - I can't believe that you were working on your closet for so long. You must be exhausted. :l

                    This was the winter from hell...I have lived here my whole life and I can not remember a winter this bad for this long. I just hope the summer isn't horribly hot to make up for it.

                      Hey people, garage sale at church today, making table arrangements with EB, laundry and such. Beautiful day here, got out for a bit. I'm pretty much a vegetarian these days too. Just trying to keep trim for the wedding.
                      Cjs bf is back not even 24 hours and she's sleeping at his brothers house! I pretty much flipped out. She came home at 5 today changed clothes and went back to his house. He doesn't have a car now, so he's driving hers, I've been crying for two days. Almost went to buy a bottle of wine last night, but called hubby and cried to him instead. And so it begins, I've tried to give this guy the benefit of the doubt, but I just don't like him. Anyway, I'm feeling like I need to hang out here with you guys, need to keep my head and stay sober. Luv you all, thanks for letting me vent. Night

                        Oh Liz - So very happy about the wedding plans but so very sad about cjs 'boyfriend'. Just doesn't sound like a good situation at all. :l:l

                          Gotta go and meet with my lady and then take mom to her appt. Then, cabin.

                          Love you guys!
                          We have that kind of dinner quite often. We make a pot of beans and rice each week. Make burritos for lunches. I eat eggs so I will have an egg & bean burrito. I haven't experimented cooking with tofu though. I keep meaning to but just never get around to it.

                          Fennel & I had to most wonderful lunch at a vegetarian place in Palm Springs. I loved it.

                            Well, Mom & I just had a jalapeno/cheese bagel. I need to get to the market tomorrow and get some supplies in. There is so much food in the house but so much of it is expired. I am going to have to go around and start throwing out. My niece already threw some stuff out.
                            When my Dad retired, he took over all the grocery shopping. It was like his hobby. Would clip coupons, find the stores with the best deals, etc. But, he would buy too much food. 5 boxes of cereal because it was on sale, etc. So, there are still cans of food out on the shelf in the garage that have probably been out there for 5 years or more. And, my brother has a house full of junk food. So, I need to get some groceries in here and cook some meals.

                            I also need to talk to Mom about having someone in here to clean once or twice a month. She is adamantly against that but, there are things that should be done that she can't do anymore. The bathroom that my brother uses is dirty. I don't think he's cleaned the sink since I was up here last time.

                            Anyway, not going to stress about all of that. Just going to enjoy the time with my Mom. I can tell the difference from when I was here 6 months ago. :upset: But, she is happy and knows she is loved. That is the important thing.

                              Such a good daughter you are Nora! It's hard not being close to them when they are older. I never thought I would say it, but I miss my in laws a lot!
                              Happy Sunday all. Made it through another al free day. CJ got in at 1am. So much for getting home early. Her dad is going to talk to her. He wants to meet with her and the bf and set some things straight. Not sure if that's a good idea or not. Any input would be appreciated.

                                Good morning everyone (Liz , sorry I don't have much to offer except a hug:l and the feeling that this will work out)

                                Been incredibly hard to post this last week though I've been reading some. I try not to stray too far despite whatever awfulness is ramming down the door.- and this awfulness du jour is pretty out there...

                                To be honest...I don't even know how to articulate it...say it...it's so hideous, so surreal and completely crazy...which is why, my wonderful people, I can't talk about it on this forum but want you all to know that I am still here, I will get through this....my family will get through this. I did drink 3 days in a row and felt absolutely nothing...just numb- well, number....
                                But I am back on track.

                                That's it. I wish I could say more but I don't know how.....Except I'm glad everyone here is still moving forward with your usual grace and aplomb...except for Mama closet....I saw the pic on FB...what happened?

                                Nora, kiss your mom and enjoy the time. I'm totally jealous :l
                                Pauly you sound good. Can your hub help with ball bearings in our truck... ?
                                Fen, are you still At the cabin?
                                Dottie I missed your anniversary. I'm sorry:h
                                Zenny, please don't sulk:h I'm never very far off...kind of like a stray cat; I turn up eventually. Oh and I have a soup recipe you might like. Hugs.
                                K9 glad the BG Check is over. That's got to be a huge albatross off your neck:h
                                I know I'm forgetting people . I'm sorry. I'll stay close today. Rainy and blah here. Perfect me mirror at the moment.
                                Love you all
