Losing our family is such a shock...even when we know it is close. I'm so sorry that you had to lose her but I am glad that you loved her so much. The pain is worth the love. I'm also sorry that your brother has such pain. Thank goodness he didn't leave.
Jeannie...I am so saddened to hear this news. How heartbreaking for you and all of your family. I will be keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers.
I am so glad you told him not to leave and that their family made it there in time to say goodbye.
Love you...hugs....connie d
Hello sistas!
This is going to be quick because my computer is making horrible noises and I'm going to shut it down. Again. I think the time has come to go buy a new one.
I'm royally pissed at the scale this morning. I went for my weekly weigh-in and shot and the damn scale didn't budge an ounce!!! It still said 200 lbs. I've been dieting and walking my ass off. I expect some results!
Carrie is here and I'm off baby duty for the next three days. Hallelujah!
Okay, I've got to close. The noises are getting worse. Love you all!

Ladies,
I just wanted to stop in quickly and let you all know that my precious sister in law whom I've known my entire life passed away a few minutes ago. My brother called me to tell me he wanted to run home for a minute but her breathing had changed and I had him send me a video of her so I could see and hear and I told him not to go but to hold her hand and tell her goodbye and he did and he called his son and daughter and his grandchildren and they all got there before she died. He thanked me so much because he said if he had ran home, she would have died alone. I just called the hospice nurse and told them how grateful I am to them for taking such good care of her and that if my brother and his kids forget to thank them, it's because they are in shock. My husband ordered pizza for all the nurses and my sister ordered them all some candy for the floor. Those gals took such good care of our beautiful sister in law and they were so kind to my brother....I am so sad. I wanted one more moment with her.
Hi Trish and my OFF family:
I got back from vacation yesterday and I was pooped. I read the posts on my tablet but don't like posting on that. Gary and I ordered a pizza for dinner and vegged. I went in the bedroom to watch "Grey's Anatomy" (Gary hates the show) and then watched some baseball while I read. I was in a world of pain. I feel a little bit better today, but not much. I have to go out for a bit today to get some gas and money but I don't have much else planned. I have to do laundry but otherwise, just hanging around.
Juliette ignored me when I got home. Eventually, she forgave me for deserting her and came up on the bed and purred. I hate when I leave her; I miss her so much. She left us fresh hairball as a present. Little stinker.
I was good on vacation and didn't buy any more junk; I bought two bottles of wine and a four-pack of beer. My only souvenirs were the photos I took and the good times we had. So I feel I did well. Ate too much at times. But otherwise I did OK. We only ate out once a day; the rest of the time we had bars or snacks.
Trish, hope your daughter's interview goes OK.
I finished filing my taxes; I owe so I waited til now. I have to make arrangements because I don't have the money. I don't have money for anything.
Anyway, I need to go get my tax print-outs and some envelopes and sign everything so I can mail them out. Have a good day.
I'm back.
First of all, sorry I was AWOL yesterday. I was exhausted from lack of sleep the night before.
If you are reading this in the next hour, Colleen has her job interview at 9:45 EDT. It's 9:40 now. Please pray for her. I have done my prayers.
I watched Frankie yesterday morning. Then, I had an appointment with the ortho doc. He gave me an extension on my physical therapy. Then, he gave me a shot in my hip for my bursitis, and a shot in my hand for my arthritis. Both have been killing me this past week. The shots hurt, but now I feel better.
I missed Isabel's choir concert last night, coz I fell asleep after my ortho appointment. Woke up too late to attend. I'll see her in May.
I have an appointment with my hematology nurse for my INR.
I will catch up later.
Hugs,
Trish
Thanks for praying.

Good Morning OFF,
I forgot to refill my coffee. BRB

Getting married should be a celebration. It should be all about the love 2 people have for each other and the happiness they share with others. I don't get why people become so stressed out about weddings. They should be a joyous affair.
I told Lisa, lol. Keep it up and I will be cashing in my airline ticket. But I won't. I am going to give her a very wide berth for the next two weeks. If she wants to stress, she can do so.
Dearest Connie,
It's a wedding. Weddings should be happy occasions. What was once a small occasion has turned, as they usually do, into a three ring circus. But it is still a wedding. A happy occasion. She should remember that. Instead of worrying about everything going off without a glitch and having the best, it should be a celebration of love. I don't get it. I don't.
Hope you're feeling well. I hope it has warmed up in MN. It is getting warmer and warmer here. Well, take care dear.
