i'm thinking that since i am still in the same nitegown i wore all day yesterday; i should shower! sorry-TMI !!!!!!but it's a comfy one!!!

i did sleep better last nite- have had a protein shake this morning and working on my first cuppa..need to make a fresh pot....

today; i am pretending it's sunday so i am allowed to do what i want-and get paid for it!! there are some perks to being a county employee!!!!

as i pack my "stuff" i am thinking about maui karen and preparing her condo for the tenting-and the kitties for their resort stay....

i need to sit today and figure out our budget if we stay here til roxie can go--approx heating costs and etc--much as i want to be outta here i still think it is best if we are the ones responsible for her care and getting her on the plane-and i am worried that the michigan weather in january may make it difficult for my mother to get her to the plane on time...i don't want to strain my mother like that....dang it i just don't want to wait til january to go....so i need to get out the big yellow pad and make my columns-AGAIN..... michael keeps saying"IF we ever get there" -i'm starting to agree more and more...and i am determined that we WILL get there....

i need today to be a much more productive day, however, than yesterday was so--i will be back later to see how all of you are doing!

hugs and prayers.....

Hi Margo
 I woke up at 5 instead of 6 for some reason. I can't blame it on the sun, It's not even up yet. Anyway, don't feel bad about not getting dressed yesterday, Sometimes we just
need to veg-out. You have been through so much of late. Your body & mind just needed to do nothing.
My guess is today will be much more productive for you.
My friend I was so worried about is back in the hospital again. (She signed herself out
last Sunday & should not have.) Anyway, she let me take her back to the hospital on
Saturday her choice & not having to call 911 this time. I think they have her convinced
to stay as long as needed this time. (They might not help her if she signs herself out again) She keeps undoing what they have done when she comes home too early.
Very frustrating & she is too darn young for all this garbage.
NOt much happening in my world today, Still did not take my computer apart to clean
it, maybe I will get that done today.
See you after another cup of coffee.
Talk away folks

My thinking is she might be dead!! She has major liver problems that will not go away.
Too much drinking, but, she can be a whole lot better if not staying so darn stubborn.
Maybe this time, she will stay in long enough before coming home.
*** Note: The hospital says that once she is cohearant enough to sign paperwork, they
cannot leagally keep her. I think that is crap, but, understand their point.

Morning Lovelies!

Gary's home today, which is great for him but it's thrown my day off schedule way off kilter. I have so much to do before leaving for Dallas on Thursday that I don't know where to start, so I'm not starting at all....lol  So, it will end up being a crazy mad dash to get it all together. Working tomorrow and Wed, hoping the phone rings to bring in a little more cash so I can at least pay my rent there for the week. I kind of hinted to the salon owner if she offered a week free rent for vacations, which some salons do, but she really didn't answer me, so I'll take that as a no.   Oh well. Not  like I haven't been self employed for 30 years. Should be used to it by now, huh?

Margo, I'm so sorry things are going haywire with the Roxie situation. Like everything else, if it's worth doing/having, it worth working for. Easy for me to say, I've already made my big move!

Well, I think I'll go clean out my car and wash the windows inside. Then I'll take it through one of those auto washers before I leave. Sounds like a partial plan!

Hugs and love to you all. Have a great day off for those lucky enough, and make the most of it if you don't!

Susan

Good morning to you, Margo and my OFF family. I am so grateful that I have all of you to come to and help me to find my sanity. Sometimes you just have to sit back and think things through and help to make our decisions. Know this, dear Margo, that things aren't always on our time. God knows no time table. He isn't the one that invented calendars and watches. He knows no lists of plans and time so it happens with His time and not ours. But I do know one thing...just do what you have to do and put one foot in front of the other and you will get to your destination...no matter what it is or how far away it is either. Just my own opinion....take it for what it is worth.

Today we are going to our nephews house for a cook out. It is going to be just us and his family so it is smaller than the one the other day. It is one that I can sit back and really enjoy myself. The one that we had the other day was kind of tense for me for some reason. I wasn't comfortable for some reason. I usually was but not this year. Oh well..it is what it is and it is gone now.

The day is comfortable and cool with the nice sun shining. I love it when the sun shines. It just makes me know that all is well...even if it isn't. If you know what I mean. I know....sometimes I don't make any sense but at least I know what I mean....at least I do at times anyway.

I did nothing at all yesterday. I slept most of the day off and on. Then I went to bed early and thought that I would jus****ch television. I got through one show and then never say the news. Oh well. I guess what they had to say wasn't important for me to hear last night. I will probably hear the same thing today. I wish that I could say that I feel rested but I almost feel drugged. I feel so tired and crappy. I have a bit of a headache and a sore throat. I know that they are allergies...I have such a problem with them this year. I sound like I am going to lose my voice and I can bet you all that Bill is just hoping that I do. Just ask him and if he is honest he would agree.

I better get going. I am getting hungry and need my breakfast. I am sending my love and hugs to all and prayers are being said for everyone too. Know that if we smile at others it helps to bring happiness and joy in their lives and into our own too. Have a great Labor Day all my lovely family.

                    It's not what you gather, but what you scatter 
                        that tells what kind of life you have lived.

brenda-are you allergies airborn? or something you eat? mine are mostly foodstuffs....have you seen the commercials -i hear ads on radio-for something new you can rub around your nostrils to prevent the allergens...not sure the name...could work????????????

as for the other-i am going to weigh heavily on the side of caution on this....and continue making my lists and saying my prayers....

Margo, all my allergies are the airborne ones. I haven't heard of what you are talking about..but I wonder if it would help. I will have to listen for it. If you catch the name will you give it to me, please? Thanks for the information.....

I think that your thoughts for the other thing is a good one. But one thing...how wonderful would life be if it followed our lists? Just a thought....with love. But I understand..I am a list maker too..just can't find the dang things when I am done! ha ha
