Just thought some of you may wonder what you were whining and complaining about almost a year ago, up to a few months ago. I was whining and complaining about my hubby...how I wish I still had him here to whine and complain about. :-1

Thanks aftr...I find it amazing how trivial some things can seem after being thru something so significant in your life.

Thanks Karen.:-4 Another thing that I really gained perspective on is to try to put things in the past where they belong, and to try to rebuild strained relationships with people I really care about. We are never promised a tomorrow, so do what you can today...and always tell people that you love them.

I don't know what I would do without my daughters, we are all going thru this together and it's only making our bond stronger. :-4:-4

I also have made a couple of wonderful friends here that have been strength and support to me. :-4

That is so true. We've always been close, and this trial in our lives have made us even closer. :-4

I have to go ride my bike 10 years old, with my ten year old and her 21 speed, in order to get to lunch ...



made me wonder if I should throw it in the back of the car for an upcoming road trip....:yh_whistl:yh_whistl

Only if you're willing to spend the entire day trying to find my bike in the garage, helping me actually get it out, then tuning it up for a ride!

I think sticking to our lunch date would be a lot easier on both of us!! :sneaky::yh_rotfl:yh_rotfl

My daughter wakes up late, is dressed and out the door in less than 5 minutes, drives an hour to school, makes it just in time, only to find out her first two classes have been cancelled. Now she has 3 hours of time to wait for her first class of the day. :-5

Washed dishes twice already today!

So much for my early to bed, early to rise idea. Noooooooo, I've gotta stay up and watch scary movies. Then the dogs woke me up to go outside so early so I opened up the back door to let them go in and out as much as they wanted, and then went back to bed. Did that work? noooooooooo, the puppy kept getting on my bed thinking I was her chew toy and my ponytail was for tug of war...then kept stealing stuff off my bed. So much for a good sleep. :-5:-5:-5

mmmmm...I love cauliflower! Got the plates off, temp ones on, then limped up to the gas station to put air in the van tires...one was almost flat. I still don't like driving the van, that was hubby's van...still a lot of his stuff in it that I haven't had the heart to clean out yet.

I will, I just have to be ready to do it.

My gramma is in the ICU at the hospital with pneumonia and fluid...called pulminary edema. She's 92 and weighs less than 90lbs...so it's scary.

One thing that almost no one knows, is that I've had two grandparents that were really sick, die right after I visited them in the hospital. It scares the hell outta me that it might happen again.

coincidence maybe...but it wasn't coincidence with my grandma that died 25yrs ago...she was waiting for me to tell her goodbye. It's a long story and still makes me cry when I tell it.

I washed down the little front deck, swept again, did grocery shopping.
