Not a trick or treater to be found on my street last night....no where!!!!!   Very quiet except for our neighborhood rooster that I would like to choke and all the barking dogs.  (We really live in the city)  Most of the night has been spend (actually the last two days) mopping up mysterious water off the kitchen floor.  Called the landlord and he can't come check on it until Saturday...GREAT...now I have water on my floor until then....lots of washing towels.  Have no idea where this leak is coming from....coming out from under my electric stove.... under my sink is dry....cabinets are dry...spooky....the tiles are getting ruined but that is on the landlord, I told him..Meanwhile, I am mopping up water.  As far as my mood....it is going downhill really fast but I am trying to put the brakes on the red wagon with my one arm....Maybe I need a yard sale or two this weekend...Yup, that is exactly what this Mother Clucker needs.  A shot or two of a yard sale.  Just getting out of the house, breathing in some nice cool crisp fall air and knowing I am alive!   Need to get together with my BFF's and just laugh for awhile.  Hope everyone has a fantastic, wonderful, spectacular, preweekend day...  Love ya muchly!!!!!! Hugs, Momma Grumpy Betsy

Wow, Sweetie...You are looking fantastic.  What a difference....you must be like me, I just love jammies...first place I head in a store..I live in them at home.  If I go out as soon as I get home I change right back into them.  I had a hard time giving up some of them.....  Anyway, looking forward to the winter ones again. Hugs, Betsy

Oh, Sweetie, that is wonderful....my best wow moment was getting on the plane and not having it announced that I needed an extention for the seatbelt....  I now fly normal... and it does only get better.  Sit back and enjoy this wonderful journey.  Just don't spend lots on clothes as you will breeze right on through them...Goodwill's are wonderful!!!!    You are doing wonderful...

Hey there, Lauren, I am a long way away in Danville but wanted to say hi.  We all have made great friends here no matter the distance.  Loving group here and full of encouragement...you have found the right place, Sweetie...Welcome.. Hugs, Betsy

Hey Cathy!!!  I know what it is like with out a computer...it can be miserable at times.  Can you imagine life without them now???  We really have it easy now compared to how it used to be.  Anyway, glad it is all fixed and you are back...We have had such a dry summer down here in southern VA that we aren't really getting much color to our trees but a few have some color which I love.  I miss the mountains so much.   Hugs, Betsy

Hey, Sweetie....Sorry I was down the same time you were.  I wanted to call but didn't know when to call when you weren't sleeping and I know how important that is when you are in pain.  Hope you are doing much better now.  Thank God for freinds like Pam.  I know you really appreciate her and love her.  Wish I could have been of help.  Hope there isn't a next time but if there is, I hope I can be there for you. Hugs, Betsy
