Long time no see. Good you are back. Sorry to hear about your mom.
how are other things in your life? a while back you mentioned your daughter may be moving.. anything happened with that? How is Colleen and the grand-babies? Hope everything is well.
How is your dog? what have you been up to ?
In the past I enjoyed reading about your outings with the kids.

Judy,
It's gotten better over the years but still sad for me because she died unexpectedly. The memories of that phone call and couldn't get home right away.
Now I don't take my dad for granted or other family members because you never know when they will die
Yvonne...20 years...so sorry!! It doesn't get any easier does it? HUGSSSSSSSSSS
Another week or so we will also be at the hotel and beach!!! We are counting down!!!! LOL
Prayers for your SIL and the rest of you!!

Hi ladies,
I slept most of the day away yesterday. Today marks 20 years since my mom passed away.
Going to the beach tomorrow since its supposed to be hot.
My SIL has liver cancer. She had her first chemotherapy this week. Ill call her tomorrow to see how it went.
Thats about it for me.
Have a good evening
Hi Judy,
I'm sorry to hear about your Mom. My sister just called to tell me how hard it was to drop Mom off at a nursing home, temporarily, so she can travel here for a visit, and break from Mom. My sister still finds it hard to understand why Mom doesn't remember things she says to her, or why she keeps asking the same questions over and over. I get it, but then I have years of experience dealing with people who don't remember things, and ask questions over and over. I had kids, taught kids, and worked in a psychiatric hospital. I learned ages ago not to expect Mom to behave normally. Before the dementia, she was bipolar. Normal isn't part of Mom's makeup. Never was.
Hugs,

Hi Trish,
Sorry that your mom is having health issues. I lost my mom just over two months ago. I took care of her til the end. Something I never want to go through ever again in my life. Watching a mom die more each day right before your eyes is really hard.
A Quaker marriage huh? Never knew they got married without a preacher of some kind. Different. Hope it works out for them.
All the stress I have had last few months the weight has come back some and I am trying hard to get it off again. But it seems to really love me now and will not leave.
Good seeing you posting here again.
Sorry I've been quiet for so long. I've had a rough time with depression, and travel. Mom hasn't been doing well between her dementia and depression. In February, she broke her pelvis in a fall, and has been very obstinate with my sister, including just staying in bed all day.
My baby boy, Sean, got married in April. It was a Quaker wedding, where there was not minister, or officiant. It was exactly the kind of wedding he and his bride would have. Relaxed, informal.
My weight had stagnated during the Winter, but I started losing a few months ago.
I hope all of you have been well.
Hugs,
Trish

Hi Kathy...Well I was just wondering why the "snowflakes" disappeared after I started posting again is all. They go into blocking so I can't see their posts then they just go away period. I think it is funny. Oh well. Also what happened to Lightswitch and her gang of posters? They were so into posting on how to eat right then gone. Weird. They make everyone go away and make this a dead board. WTH?
Anyhow our town had their little parade and fireworks the other day and night. No we didn't go. There is road construction in that area and then the huge traffic jam...No thanks!!!! Big enough traffic troubles without that construction right in the middle of it all. So we stayed home and watched tv.
Today was our little BBQ. OMG we had a BLAST!!!! So much good food and fun!!! We will be doing it again soon!!! Couple of the tenants said their birthday's are toward the end of next month so we will be BBQing then. Can't wait!!! I sure missed doing this stuff!!! My back is screaming in pain but oh well!!! I am happy. Have not been happy since mom died. Guess I am healing huh?
About a week and a half we will be at the beach also!!! Plus the hotel has an inground pool!!! OMG I can't wait to get away from here!!!!
Hope you had a great 4th!!!!
