Good Morning,
I am back to not sleeping much.  I hope to get a handle on it when I talk to my psychiatrist next week.  

Today, I have to go to the store and pick up some corn on the cob, then to RiteAid to get a prescription.  Then, get home and get my dining room table cleared off from when I came home from Michigan, and just dumped stuff on it.

My very exciting life.  Boring!

Have a blessed day.

Hugs,
Trish

Good morning Trish and everyone....

It is 11:40 and so far no other posts. What the heck is going on??

Trish....have a good nap later. Hope the psychiatrist can help!

As for me....nothing but pain and more pain. It has rained here for the last 3 days and it is to continue through the weekend. Guess I will be medicating!!

Wishing you all a good day. Prayers for those in need.

Love and hugs to all.....connie d

Good afternoon,

A boring life is not so bad. Better than too much going on.

I've been reading but not writing lately. Tom's medical issues continue and takes much of my energy.

Since last time, I got another puppy. His name is Jerry and he's a little beagle/rat terrier mix. Looks more beagle.

Baxter "needed" a little brother. They play well together. The cats have learned to stay away from the needlepoint puppy teeth.

Next weekend we are going to Virginia to see our grandson graduate. The Ithaca grandson graduates later in the month.

That's about it for me.

Kisses

Annette,
     So glad to hear that Baxter has a new addition to the family. How fun. Why the name Jerry? Just curious. Nothing wrong with it. My first "puppy love" was named Jerry. lol   It's a fine name.   Mag

Mag,

Tom had no idea that I was adding another furbrat to our home. It seemed polite to let him select the name.

His first choice was "Guido". Not a good beagle name. Jerry seemed better.

Annette....you are like breath of fresh air!! I am so glad to see that you posted today.

As for the new furbaby...."Jerry" is definitely a more suitable name!

I continue to keep you in my prayers every day!!

Love and Hugs....connie d

I like Guido, but agree that a beagle deserves a different name than that.

Good mornin' ya'll.
Trish and Connie, I'm so sorry to hear your health issues are still bothering you. I hope things look up soon.
I am in Oregon and so happy to see my daughter happy!! I guess I didn't realize how miserable she was until I see the change in her. Little things: she has the dishes SHE wants, she can load her dishwasher anyway she wants, she is cooking a lot now that no one is telling her she is doing it wrong. She said it was just easier to 'go along' than start a fight. She really has a very tiny two bedroom townhouse, but she is soooo thrilled to be able to decorate it the way she wants!! Her future ex keeps telling her the kids want them to be a family again. She has agreed to go to family counselling for the kids. She will NOT go to couples counselling, since she has no desire to be a couple.
I drove our granddaughter to school. She says things aren't too bad. She absolutely does NOT want her parents to get back together. She can also see the positive change in her Mom. She is OK with being 50/50 with her Mom and Dad. BUT, whenever she is with her Dad all he talks about is the divorce and how he doesn't want it, and how her mother is to blame for breaking up the family, and how terrible her Mom is. She says her Mom NEVER puts her Dad down. I'm sure now that their son is home, he is gonna get the same earful.
Our daughter has been trying to get him to sell the Lotus. She is making a monthly payment on it. Last summer he drove it 8 times and each time complained about how much it hurt his back. The dealer that sold it to them called to say he had a buyer if she wanted to sell it. Of course. She told the ex she would be over to pick it up (it is in her name). He said absolutely not, she was taking away the only thing that still brought him joy (he didn't mention any joy he gets from the kids). He must have checked with his lawyer, cause he finally said OK, she could have it but insisted on bringing it to her house. She hadn't told him her new address. She is off FB cause he was making their daughter get online so he could track our daughter's activity. Now she is afraid he will make the kids bring him over and let them in the house. The kids have the code to get in the gate and to get into the garage, but she is now keeping the door from garage to house locked if she isn't here.
Even when our daughter has our granddaughter he calls to 'offer' to take her to Driver's Ed, or pick her up from there, or get her from school or to swing by Starbucks and get her a drink and take her to school. Our daughter says nope. But then she goes to pick up the daughter and he is there already with a Subway sandwich for her and trying to convince our granddaughter to let him take her home.
Last night he was at the airport to pick up our grandson, our daughter was there to get me. He had parked and gone in to get the grandson and was gonna get him and his luggage and whisk him away. Our daughter texted him not to leave, she wanted to see her son. They have never parked to pick up someone from the airport, they just pick us up curbside. But he had to get there first!! Then he insisted on giving me a hug. Another thing that has never happened before!! Like the Mother's Day card he sent me this year.
He is trying to make it look like our daughter is too busy to care for the kids, feed the kids, take the kids to and from places.
Her lawyer says not to talk to him unless it is about the kids. But he keeps blowing up her phone with texts and phone calls. Her credit card has a $6000 balance and she had always kept it at zero! He joined Match.com knowing she would see the charge on the card and thinking it would tick her off. She told him she was so glad he had decided to 'move on' and find someone to spend time with. He has already told her and the kids he never plans on working again. He thinks, if he plays it right he can live off her for the rest of his life!!
She expects by tomorrow sometime her son will be tired of his Dad's rantings and wanna come stay with her!!
Sorry for the rant!! My heart breaks for her for the sh*t he is putting her and rhe kids hrough!! But I am so happy to see her so relaxed and happy.
Everyone have a fantabulous day!

Carolyn...I am praying your daughter and the children find some peace and quiet soon. I am sure the lawyer is doing all he can.

That man is so immature and a total idiot!! Why doesn't your daughter close out the credit cards he has access to. I would have made it impossible to get at my funds.  She has title to the car. Can't she have it picked up as stolen. She owns it. I sure wouldn't be kind to him. I will keep praying for them everyday!!

HUGS....connie d

The lawyer says she can't close out credit cards, bank accounts or put money away for herself. She must continue to have her paycheck auto deposited. He is intitled to live as he has for the last 10 years. In other words, buying whatever he wants, whenever he wants it.
She has the car and will be driving to Seattle Saturday to get it sold.
We all have a positive attitude that things will work out fairly.
Thank you all for your concerns!
