I feel like crash dieting for 2 weeks,I lose weight fast,however I gain fast too just sick of feeling"fluffy" hope everyone has a great,not good, GREAT Friday,much love to all

[Dottie Belle]

Nora police meeting was good. Had a speaker from the IRS fraud criminal dept. Has some very good stories to tell.
Did run into the fellow I dated decades ago. We are going to have lunch at some point. And he drives a very sexy Mercedes sports car...$$$$$$$ And lives not too far from me . Lots of things going on...and yes Pauly someone could call..if not there are 2 dance things I could go to depending on the weather. Raining here right now...boohiss

[paulywogg]

Send some rain this way Dots

[NoraC]

I need rain too!

Pauly - I'm ok. Not great but ok. And, of course, I know you're not being nosy. :hug:
He hired a lawyer yesterday. I have just stepped back and he and his girlfriend are doing everything except I am talking to the insurance company because the policy is in my name. He knows that he screwed up BAD and is dealing with it. I just thank God that nobody was hurt. I still think about his car and it is a miracle that he is alive.
Not sure about jail time or anything. This will take months before it's settled. There might be an option to do house arrest which would let him go to work & home only. Anyway, it is one step at a time. That's all we can do. He is a wonderful person but he made a VERY BAD choice .

Pauly - sorry you had bad cravings yesterday. You are doing so great!!!

Dottie - sounds like a fun time meeting up with an old boyfriend.

Mama is on her way back from Orlando. She had to stay an extra day. I don't know where Rusty is though.

Liz - I agree - that you all for being here. You are what keeps me going.

[Rusty]

I am here, friends! I am on my long, long drive home. Two hours Down and 2 1/2 hrs. To go. I leave for Clearwater, Florida on Sunday for work. Zoom zoom. No time this week to plant my flowers but I did get some beautiful hanging baskets of petunias for both of my decks.


Nora, so sorry to hear about your son. Huge hugs! I am so glad
He is not hurt but hope that he can learn from his costly and embarrassing mistake. :-(
Hellos to everyone else. I stopped For lunch but must get going...back
Later. :-)

[paulywogg]

Nora,you'd figure these kids would've learned from watching us be assholes with drinkin and completely avoid it,sadly I didn't learn from my mom's mistakes and my kids didn't learn from me either,Mama,lots of traveling for you,be safe

[Dottie Belle]

Evening all,
I am sitting here alone...no date....but could have gone to synagog with Art but declined. He is so nice and such a gentleman but I feel no spark with him..if you know what I mean....I am not ready to sleep with anyone for sure but is it wrong of me to date him if what I figure will be the inevitable will come up.
John and Bob make me spark like crazy.....holy crap...am I being shallow or what. Bob comes back from his trip later next week and John has his 3 daughters in town for fathers day. But sitting here is not all bad. Quiet and calm..well except for the crazy dogs. I am 61 and this all just boggles my mind.

[Lizann]

Pauly quiet night once in awhile is not a bad thing Dottie! Enjoy it.
Nora hang in there honey, we are here for you.
Pauly, I agree, they just don't learn from our mistakes.
Rusty, enjoy the trip next week, must be exciting to be all over the place! I think I would enjoy some quiet alone time in a car for a few hours or a hotel alone for just one night!. The flowers will wait.
Did not sleep well at all last night, too much espresso, I think, so tired tonight!
Have a good night all, love you lots!

[Lizann]

Darn spell check! A quiet night once in awhile, is what I meant to say.

[mama bear]

I am home and lollygagging this morning. I gad to stay an extra night as there was so much to do and got home about 8 last night. I will read back later

[mama bear]

just read back and everyone sounds good, but I am sad and worried for you Nora. Thanks for texting and checking on me.
Liz - the travelling gets old for me, but I need my paycheck. Plus, I was out walking properties in 100 degree heat, so it's nice to be home in the AC.
Hubs and I have our 24 year anniversary Monday! We aren't doing anything as all our extra funds went to the bankruptcy attorney, but that's ok.
Dottie - get all the kisses and fancy cars you can. You GO girl!
I'll text K9 again.

[Dottie Belle]

Spent most of the day with Art. He is very laid back and nice. Not sure he knows which end of a hammer to use but he does have good sense of humor. He asked about coming back tomorrow but I am not sure. That would be date 4 and I just read about the new dating 3 date rules....LOL Holy crap....

[Lizann]

Yup Dottie, I always told my girls about the 3 date rule. Hang in there and you make the rules!!!
