WHATS HAPPENING SATURDAY

SORRY I AM POSTING THIS EARLY BUT I HAVE TO GO TO BED , IM AM WORN TO A FRAZZEL.

We had our share of rain today. Got about 1 ½ inches all together. It would rain real hard and then stop for about an hour then start again. We need it for sure. Now I don’t have to water anything. Lol. God did it for me.

While I am thanking God for things. Thank you Lord for getting Melissa thru her surgery. I hope and pray now that she will have the results from it that she wanted.

My granddaughter came over today wanting to talk. She has been getting pretty depressed or appeared to me that she was. I told her that there were a lot of things going on in her life. Two babies under 2 , Husband unable to find a really good paying job.

And just moved again. So that anytime she felt like she was at the end of her rope to just shut the door and come and get me and I would watch the babies while she got out and walked and walked and walked. Clear her head and give herself a good talking too.

And if I wasn’t home and she felt that way get out the double stroller and put them in it and go walking and walking and walking. Till the panic and pain inside subsided.

I remember those days and I had no one to help me. It was hard.

Ive got lilies blooming now and some roses and clematis. So im starting to get some color in the yard. I have had a lot of trouble with a lot of my seeds not wanting to come up that I have planted directly in the ground. I don’t know if they weren’t good or what.

There is a nursery down here that is having a huge sale this week end I may go buy some plants and put them in. Even the zinnias that I had aren’t wanting to come up like they should. Maybe I have lost my touch lol

I think it is more the weather than anything is weird this year.

MELISSA: I sure am glad that you came thru this surgery fine and that you felt well enough to call Tammy yourself this afternoon. That is great. Anyway hope you are feeling ok . I know you aren’t great yet but take it easy this week end and you should be better in a few days. We will all keep you in our prayers .

JANET: I know you are tired too after being up so early and being anxious for Mel.

Now you can relax for awhile. Hope all is well with your kidlets and Did your daughter arrive in L.V. yet? Are the boys still with your other daughter? What are you all going to do for the long week end? I know you were going to enjoy your pool but I guess it didn’t get much of a chance to heat up today for sure.

Thanks from all of us for being there for Melissa and letting us know that she was ok.

CONNIE: yes I do remember you being at the COF meeting in April. Just forgot for a moment. Hope you will be at the June one. Wish I could help you with the problem with your computer. If my son were here I could ask him and he could tell me but he is working tonight so I cant . I will email him and see what he says. I think there is something you can do to eliminate that problem.

Great that you will be telling us about your self and your life. It makes us all feel lots closer to each other.

Are you planning in Sept. to come to the reunion? We will have so much fun.

Keep up the good work on the diet.

BARBARA:  That is great that you will try to be at the picnic on the 19^th. I think there will be a fairly good crowd there. At least about what there was at the golden correl meeting.

Anxious to see you again.

Boy you will have the grandbabies close wont you? That is good. Nothing like living close to grandma. We always did when I was little and it was so neat to be able to run to grandmas house when we needed a little bit of extra loving.

So are you still at about 120 pounds? I don’t know if I  really want to be that tiny or not. Never been there since I was young so don’t know what I would look like old and 120 lol

You looked really good when I saw you back in December.

LOVE AND JOY AND PEACE ABOUNDS

Hello OH Board,           Today my hubby is out getting the boat ready, so I guess we'll be going to the lake sometime soon? I never know cause we are quite the spontaneous couple which I love. I'm not sure if it's gonna rain down Tablerock way? My kids are all outside. Cleaning gutters on the house,doing some stuff in the garage and I was doing bills,so I thought I'd pop in a minute.            Jan: I am on the shy side so probably why you couldn't place me.I will be there June.I've seen a little on the September reunion(In Branson?) That sounds good to me.Any info on this computer would be nice.The GEEK squad want $65 an hour and figure 2 hrs. work. My flowers are doing good and me being from the desert in Bakersfield,CA. untill Nov. of 2004 well I'm quite happy. I couldn't grow anything and I'm getting the hang of it.           Janet: Good for you fighting back!! I'm good at that too and I love when people don"t let themselves be bullied by the system!!           Well I"m being paged by hubby to give my input on his boat work, so I'll go for now. Thanks again for listening!!            Take care and God Bless,   Connie

Hello All,

I know I'm a lurker and don't post much. I wish I could write like Janet, her posts are like reading a good book. I have never been able to sit down and write like that. I even tried a couple times to write a daily journal of my life. I sit down with the paper and pencil each night and stare at the paper, mind blank.  But anyhoo-------------I wanted to tell you all we had a 100 mile yardsale in Southeast MO. This weekend. It started in Jackon and followed Highway 25 for 100 miles to way down in the boothill. My daughter and G-daughter and myself went to it. We went from Jackson all the way to Malden.

I don't know how far that is but we were gone from 9:00 to 9:00!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But what I wanted to tell you is I found a brand new outfit that I wanted real bad in a size 14 with no W behind it. It is capris and sleeveless top that zips up the back and a short sleeve button up blouse. the top and capris are a sorta tan color with red stars across the bottom and the button blouse is red with tan stars.

They wanted $6.00 for it cause it was brand new. It is a very expensive outfit. I could tell that because when you get real big and have to shop at J.C. Penney and places like that you know good quality.  Well I bought it in hopes it would fit. It wasn't stretch anything and even the capris zipped up the back and had a waistband. IT FITS   I'm so happy, WOW moment for me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well I got to get dressed, my youngest sister is coming to pick me up and we are going to visit my older sister and then go shoe shopping. TTYL

Hi Jan.  Sorry I didn't get back to you before now but this is the first chance that I had to write.  Thank goodness I don't have to worry about finding someone to watch Cody for me.  I always have my mom to watch him.  The only problem will be if I go back to work and then on the days she works, I will have to figure something out.  Thank you for your prayers for Lloyd's mom.  She started chemo on Wednesday and so far so good.  He says that she didn't get sick with the first round so hopefully that is a good sign.  I will be careful meeting with him Jan but I really feel he is everything he says he is and everything I think he is.  Even my brother who is real skeptical about all of this internet meeting says he thinks Lloyd is an ok guy.  Thank you for the wonderful compliments.  I really feel good about myself now and I think that shows through.  I have really noticed how people (especially men) treat me different - saying hi, opening doors, reaching things that are out of my reach at the store, etc.  I don't know whether it is the weight loss or my more outgoing personality or both.   Deanna
