We could learn a lot from crayons:
some are sharp, some are pretty,
some are dull, some have weird names,
& all are different colors....but they
ALL exist very nicely in the same box.

Morning Rhonda and Cali crew!! As Rhonda said, I am on my way back home today :( It was a wonderful time here as usual and I hate to leave, but I must go home and start packing my clothes to move out. Hopefully I have surgery soon and then I will start looking for a job up here so I can move up here for good.
Not much planned for me this weekend, back to work, which is usually busy busy on weekends!
Hope everyone has a great day today and weekend ahead!

While driving to the westside, yesterday, I almost had an accident on the 10 fwy. Basically, I freaked out because I thought the lane that I was in was going to exit. I did not look to my left, and almost side-swiped a suv. Very nerve wrecking. I move out of the way just in time. Thank goodness that I was not going to fast. Lessioned learned...always look before I leap and if I am in the wrong lane and cannot get over in time, get off the freeway, swing around and get back on.
I drove into work today because I have a nail appointment and I am going to Stitch n' ***** at Farmer's Market tonight.
Edit: I am still looking for a parking space by my house. I had put in an ad on Craigslist, but they removed it. I sent them an e-mail asking why they had removed it, but I have yet to hear from them. Parking on the street sucks. More importantly, parallel parking sucks. If anyone can think of a way for to learn how to parallel park successfully, please let me know.
Take care everyone,
More Love and Peace,
Kim
Fifteen more days till Washington and I'm so excited. My cough is finally on the down slope. This was the WORST bug but I think stress made it last much longer. I was dealing with a "mommy's" broken heart for over two weeks. My youngest son was supposed to go live with my ex (his father) when I move while he finishes getting his teeth fixed over the next 6 months or so. Well, my ex said NO. I couldn't believe it.
So I spent every day worried out of my mind about where my "baby" (he's 21) was going to live when we moved. On last Monday, I'd had enough. My ex hates talking to me, but I called and left him a very heartfelt message about taking OUR son in. He called me back and said he'd think about it. Fifteen minutes later he called our youngest and said he could come live there. OMG......I was hugging everyone, jumping up and down. The stress was gone and now my cough has slowly been improving. I can relax and look forward to this move. The three of us are even going out to dinner tonight. I have always wanted my ex and I to be a united front with our boys, but he wouldn't participate. He's barely been there for them growing up, so this is a huge step.
So, I'm going for a run in about ten minutes. Then more packing.
I'm praying for Nancy's grandbaby, Barb's father (in law?), Ms Blue's mother, Kat's job interview, ShopGirl's stress, Becky's move and surgery, and everyone else who is having troubles. I know there's more and I'm praying.
Have a great Thursday California!

I am home today and tomorrow, vacation days, but all of my plans for the next 4 days went out the window yesterday as I posted about my granddaughter Briana. But while the trip to Yosemite got canceled..the door of opportunity to heal family estrangements was opened.
After texting at least a dozen messages back and forth with my son yesterday, he called last nite and we talked almost an hour, mainly about Briana's condition, what the prognosis is and what the doctors are planning to do next week. For now, they are feeding her thru a stomach tube as she is not nursing or taking a bottle...something to do with the blood flow not going properly to the stomach for digestion. They want to build up her strengths before putting her under for open heart surgery. The GOOD News is I got to talk to my Grandson Dylan..first time in 2 years!! And I got a new picture of Dylan holding Briana..he has grown so!! (he's now 4)
So in crisis there is joy and celebration....life is definitely a 'bowl of chocolates...you never know what you are going to get' (Forest Gump) LOL As my husband tells me, worrying won't fix anything...all I can do is put my faith in Jesus...and accept His Will...and pray for the strength to endure this. God is once again demonstrating to me that I am NOT in control. And yet, at the same time, I am happy and feel joy and love. The best tools in the world to keep depression and stressful eating at bay ^_^ ..... Or else, I have fallen over the edge and can now be certified crazy ROTFL
Thank you all for your outpouring of love and support...your prayers and well wishes for my family; me, Lon, Patrick, Melayne, Dylan and Briana...are soooo appreciated. You warm my heart clear to my soul...Thank You soooo much.
So, I am off to make Lon some breakfast, hem some pants I just found hidden away (til I could fit into them Yehhhhh!), maybe some cleaning or maybe some carving time...but whatever I do, I will enjoy because I am not at work!! Have a great day friends...be good to yourselves..you are all PRICELESS!!!
