TGIF, THANK GOODNESS ITS FRIDAY!!!!!

Good am all! HAPPY FRIDAY!!! It's an absolutely gorgeous am, the temps are very warm, the crickets are chirping and the birds are just beginning to chatter a bit.  How are ya'll doing today? What's your plans for the weekend? Today will be filled with running errands; returning movies, grabbing Halloween items/costumes, groceries, etc. Tomorrow is the Fall Harvest Festival @ Crump Park, a visit to the pumpkin patch is order and of course being in nature as much as possible. I'm all outta candles so I'm hitting up Yankee Candle and am going to work on some photo album type things this weekend as well. I'm back to writing starting with last pm/this am. I've found some inspiration so I'm really excited about that.  I hope that what ever you might do today and this weekend you are smiling, loving, caring, supporting and lending a shoulder when & where you can. I wanted to say thank you to those of you who've been so kind and supportive especially most recently. Its mean so much to me. I'm coming out of this "funk" I've been in and for the first time in more than a week plus I slept pretty well. Thanks for the prayers and messages!! I hope everyone as an AMAZING weekend!

Good morning Kat, I slept in this AM. Someone was kind enough to feed the whining kitty so he didn't come and wake me!  The ground is damp so  I guess we have had some showers last night. We are on water advisories so every bit helps.  I'm sipping my cup of coffee, listening to the birds sing. No plans for today but tonight I'll be helping my daughter's Girl Scout troop prepare for the craft fairs. Please pray for my friends 7 week old son. He has had two seizures and may have partial blindness as a result.

Moring Jen - prayers are certainly coming your friends way for their son. I know its a difficult time for them. Let them know they are thought of and prayed for. It drizzled for a few minutes here but nothing yet. We really, really need the rain but God will provide I am certain of it. Have a GREAT weekend!

Hey Kat! I'm starting to get out of my funk too. I think mine is just PMS honestly. We shall see soon enough. I'm not sure what the weather is going to do, its a bit gloomy out, but it will still get warm later I'm sure. The changing of the leaves are happening and its so beautiful! I have a fairly busy weekend scheduled as usual, but its all fun! I'll be chairing a meeting tonight and I've asked my BFF to share her story. I love it. Then I plan to take the boyfriend and go see Gone Baby Gone. Saturday I would like to get a massage, still havent done that. I thought about taking Beemer to Hunt Club but I know its going to be SOOOO busy. We may do something else, maybe another movie or just throw the football around. Saturday night I'll be going to Shorebreak to watch UFC with some friends. So excited about that. Sunday I'm meeting with my sponsee to work on the steps and watching football the rest of the day! I should get some laundry done in there as well. I hope you all have a wonderniffle weekend!!! Jen, they are in prayers :)

Hey Amber -  I'm writing again....that is my very real indicator that I'm returning to some normalcy in my Life. My has been a combination of things and hopefully the worst has gone with the winds that are blowing outside my bedroom window right now. Oh yes, Fall is for sure my favorite season and I've spent this week watching them at the park floating down so gracefully and the breezes and sunshine and such has surely helped me as well.  Your weekend sounds great! There are some movies I'd love to see but my buggas are more important so we're hitting nature, some festivals and FINALLY getting Halloween costumes. UGH! I do not like to shop but since its for them.....Enjoy!

Well the "funk" moved over my way.  I overslept this morning, was an hour late to work & just feel very blah.  Want to lock myself in my room and pretend the world doesn't exist.  But I am determined to make the best of it and get on with the day/weekend. Busy weekend planned.  We have the girlies this weekend so I believe it is football game tonight, soccer tomorrow morning, bridal shower tomorrow evening and then I took off on Sunday and I believe we are doing the pumpkin patch. Hope everyone has a wonderful day & weekend.  I will try not to pass the funk to anyone else.  Love ya!!!!

Good to know I'm not the ONLY one! Hopefully things will come together for you today and peace sets in and you find some "me" to refresh your senses. Enjoy your weekend! I hope its GREAT! Love ya....

  No funkiness allowed on this board!!!  I always have to fight the big "D" (depression, darkness, drearies, etc) in the fall...don't know what it is...I guess I see it as all the flowers and trees dieing.  Anyway, I am doing good this year so far so I will have none of my little friends having funkiness....(this is from Momma Bets)  Being one of the "older" sexy ladies I can be bossy, right?  LOL.   Had a busy morning...went to see the surgeon, he yanked  off my bandage, said it looked good and sent me off to some more PT.  Today PT was a little more aggressive and they said that next week will be even MORE aggressive.  OH NO...  Still I am doing really well...not alot of pain and can move my arm fairly well.  Anxious to get back to quilting...have alot to do before Christmas. Hope everyone has a terrific weekend and I love ya all... lHugs, Betsy

Its been the loomy gloomies Mama Bets! But, I retreated, withdrew a bit and I'm doing all right again. Needed to remind myself what's most important in my life. Bossy's good really!!! Bring it on! I'm glad you are getting better and PT is a pain in the azzzz or shoulder for you....pun intended !!!! The holidays are fast approaching and so the loomy gloomies are gonna be banished! We need to get to feeling better and out the funks and get into the spirit! Love ya....
