What's up Sunday, y'all?
Hey, y'all:
I had a really crappy Saturday at work. It was pouring rain when I left home. I stopped to drop off my Redbox movies, had problems getting them to return, ended up inadvertently renting a movie I didn't want instead, got drenched while I was doing it. Then, I went to pick up my prescription; stupid pharmacy keeps doing auto refills on my prescriptions; I went to get my Flexeril, they tried to give my Singulair, which I hadn't refilled (it was an autofill, which I didn't ask for). So there I was, sitting in the car, while it was pouring rain, getting angry, trying not to yell at the pharmacist for this, asking for the script I really needed. Aaaarrrrgh!
At work, it got worse. I had 15 sports pages to do ... and it was a mess. I did get some help, but we still went down late. A lot of it was miscommunication. At the end, I was trying to finish one page, and there were supposed to be football boxes on it, and I didn't know where they were ... and no one was responding to my messages. So I started pulling my own ... finally after doing two boxes, I was told to just put stories there, that they didn't realize I needed more stuff (what, you couldn't figure out there was a half page that was empty?).
Ah well, I came home to kitty kisses and purring and a couple of DVR comedies. I just needed to vent. I don't mind the rain too much ... we needed it. Tonight is another night. Hope it's better.
What's going on with you?

Morning Eileen and all to follow. Sober 392 days and so proud of me.
Your Saturday sounded awful and frustrating. Glad you came home to kitty kisses and some peace.
Very laid back yesterday, did really nothing. My legs feel like concrete pillars so today I will move it alot.
Has anyone heard from Marguerite? Sent messages on FB and here but no contact.
Hoping all who have to travel have safe passage. Eat well and be happy, Monica

Good Morning Eileen and OFF,
So sorry you had such a sucky Saturday. I have had those days. I feel overwhelmed right now, and my life is calm.
Today, I have zero energy today, because of the anemia. I want to go to church, but can't seem to get moving. I really feel like just going back to bed. I can't wait for my iron infusion on Wednesday.
Well, this afternoon, I will make my AA meeting and then watch my Eagles play the Patriots.
Hugs,
Trish

Seek always to do some good, somewhere. Every man has to seek in his own way to realize his true worth. You must give some time to your fellow man. For remember, you don't live in a world all your own. Your brothers are here too.

Good mornin' ya'll.
Well yesterday started good at least. It ended very poorly! My son, DIL and younger grandson came over to finish up leftovers and watch the OR Ducks. DIL and I in living room with our crochet projects. The guys in the family room. As the game was ending older grandson comes over having just gotten off work. Sat next to his Mom, I asked if he wanted me to fix him something to eat, no he was fine. Kinda quiet. Finally he says to his Mom, I have some bad news. She said go get your father. He did NOT wanna do that! Can't I just tell you, you can tell Dad. Nope, go get your father. He heads to the family room. DIL and I look at each other cause we know what's coming. She goes into the bathroom to compose herself, grandson finally gets up the courage to call his Dad into the dining room, DIL joins them. Yep, his girlfriend is pregnent!! DIL back to the bathroom, comes out crying, sits on love seat, I go put my arms around her. Grandson comes back in. I get up and tell him he may want to take over. He sits and hugs his Mom as she is crying, and saying 'Oh, John" over and over. She finally says I gotta go home. Tells our son, they get ready to leave, younger grandson comes out and says what's going on. She says ask your brother. Those three left. The soon to be father stayed awhile in the living room with his head in his hands, then he got up, said goodbye and left. I went into family room, DH says, what's up. I told him. We had our own little discussion that we agreed would go no farther than ourselves!
In Sept he broke up with his girlfriend of 3 years and jumped right into this new relationship. From the beginning on her FB page she has been saying how in love they are. She has been working 10 hours a week and just started at Walmart last week. He spent the last 2 years at local Community College taking fluff classes. He talked of joining Sheriff's dept, then maybe joining the Marines. He was only working 10 hours a week (changed his schedule to work same hours as girlfriend). Owes his brother for making his last 2 month's truck payment. He starts work at Walmart next week. So, another case of 2 young kids (19 and 20), no future, starting a family.
The same thing happened with our youngest son and that marriage lasted 2 years. So sad. Ironic that today is our 46th anniversary. My DH asked me to marry him 4 hours after we met, so love at first sight can happen. But we waited til we were married to, ......., well, you know!
Sorry this is so long. Eileen, so sorry your night wasn't good. But it must be comforting to come home to loving furrykisses. Monica, I am so proud of you still.
Everyone have a fantabulous day!

Oh, Carolyn, so sorry to hear all this. Our family is having a crisis weekend, too. Sucks, doesn't it? I'll pray for your grandson and all your family. It will somehow work out. As I told myself over and over when Christie got pregnant: babies are a gift from God. Try to stay positive, if you can.

Oh, Carolyn, how horrible! Don't these kids know about contraception?
Kids today don't want to want. They want everything instantly. (Well, who am I to talk? I do the same thing with money. That's how I got into financial trouble.)
Hope they can figure out a way to deal with this that works for all concerned.

grammylew, Prayers are being said now for your grandson and his girlfriend. Yes, they are young but lets all hope that their relationship lasts, they grow in love stronger and that they will be wonderful parents. Hard road a head for most young people today.
Congrats on your 46th Wedding anniversary. You and hubby will be good mentors for your grandson and girlfriend.
I work with a young woman who is a PCA (nurse's aide) she will just be starting nursing school. She has 2 very young daughters and her fiance works in housekeeping. They just brought a house. They are surviving, they don't have much but they have a lot of love. Yep, young people can pull themselves up by their pants and still work and go to school, even with babies. Hugs Debbie

Eileen and OFF-
Sorry your night wasn't good. I certainly could not do your job waiting for other to turn in something so you can complete page setup! I am not patient, I'd be doing their work for them.
Carolyn - sorry for the sad news for your grandson. Perhaps he will learn a life lesson from this experience. Congrats to you and your husband on your anniversary. In our generation marriages that last as long as yours are a rarity. Take pride in that.
Well the cold weather moved into east Texas yesterday afternoon. We had some rain which is desperately needed here. Strong winds today. Having trouble maintaining the satellite tuning in the wind. The RV is vibrating from time to time.
I have three days off. Will spend the time getting a Christmas package off to my Mom and cleaning the RV. Now I'm going to clean out the outside compartments and reorganize, then I won't be able to find anything! Need to start on a baby quilt for a baby due on Dec. 22. They've asked me to sew some curtains for the volunteer building here at the refuge as well.
Hope everyone else who follows is having a good day. Positive vibes to everyone in need of them. My furbaby woke me up this morning by running the length of the RV and then taking a flying leap into my bed! Gotta love him as he looked at me innocently and as if to say "did I wake you".
