Romans 1:8
... I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you ...

Jaye, don't ever feel that bringing Kel into the conversation is a burden. Sometimes it is good for one to come and vent. That is what we are here for.

((((((((((((((((((((((((HUGS))))))))))))))))))


Love that iris!

Yes Jaye - we're here with you, shoulder to shoulder. Your Prayer Warriors will assist, but you need to tell us what's going on!!

beautiful iris.
jaye you couldnever be a burden

Girls are right, Jaye, you could never be a burden. I'm feeling a little lost myself, but our situations aren't the same I know.

Looks like it might rain. That would be a much welcomed treat. We missed out on the last promise of rain.

LK, that ugly boat in my driveway is way to big for a planter since I really don't have much space. I just as soon someone haul it off for me. Whoever does will get a nice trailer with it that they could make a small u haul trailer for themselves.

You'd most likely have to sign off on the trailer. But a free sign on it will make it go away fast. Was it me, I'd put it for sale for $100. bet someone will snap it up or you could let them talk you down just a bit. A decent trailer is worth that.

Karen is right, get some money for that trailer

Previously, we had some "new in this country" people try to talk us down to $16k for our home.......

I just had a lady in her 40's, from PEI, call me and wants to move to Calgary and rent it until the Park closes - $950 per month. She says the home sounds perfect for her. An apartment would cost her $1250/month........ yikes! There are no rent controls in Alberta.
She has 2 Shitzus and she'd just have to watch they didn't go into the back yard, cuz they'd get under the deck and she'd never get them out!
The very fact that people who bought into the Park would only have the home for 2 1/2 years (that's all, guaranteed), means that they wouldn't want to pay a lot of $$ for it. Would you, if you thought you might only get 2 1/2 years worth out of it?
Anyway - she and her dogs would find this a very likeable home to live in, hot tub & all.

Jayegirl!!! We love YOU!!! How could you even think that you are a burden? I was deeply hurt by Doug cheating on me too. But you know what I'm laughing now because he did me a huge favor. I am so much happier now than I was the last year or so. I just really miss and worry about Amy.....So a friend posted this the other and it fit me perfectly.....you may relate to it too




But now~~~~~~~~~~~~I am on cloud 9 lol I am going on a ride to Fort Bragg, Memorial Weekend with my new guy Ron and celebrating my 60th and meeting and making new friends. The motel sounds really nice, I hope we are on the 2nd floor looking out to the Ocean.

Sounds like a nice trip Cindy!

Cindy - that is a great quote!!

Hello Ladies and Ernie too!!!

Went to lunch today with two gals that I worked with 20 years ago at The Salvation Army. So good to reconnect with old friends.....

Nice picture Cindy. Looks like everyone is happy.

GOOD MORNING

Morning Kathy.

How are you doing?

just got back from the gym and grocery shopping
waiting for the surveyer t com.
i'm tired already and it isn't even 8:30
other than that i'm fine
got to put the groceries away

I am in San Antonio. I was supposed to see my arthritis dr yesterday. I sT in his waiting room for 2 hours, and the nurse called me up to the desk to tell me the Dr. got called out for an emergency and all patients had to reschedule. I told her I just drove 3 hours to see him and she said was sorry.

Good morning ladies and btw Cindy I caught that lol.

Jaye never mind his rude disgusting phony highness we care about you and you can verbalize all you feel the need to do so.

Linda, sorry you sat there all that time for nothig

Hi - took a wee break from packing - and I'd had a nap too.
When I got up I got the mail and my daughter & son in law had sent me a Mother's Day card from them and their dogs lol Included a bit of $$ so we could do something to relax that day - nice of them.

Well, back to packing............

Thank you sisters and brother.

Naps aren't allowed Susan!! Lolol.. wish I could help.

Aww.. Linda Kay, it won't be fruitless if you did some shopping!

My landline isn't working, and Kel is taking his sweet time to fix it.
I do have the cell phone in case I need to hire a hit man!!

Did more weeding .. rains today, but managed to play in the dirt when it stopped.

I love all of you, please know that my love is sincere. Never took any of you for granted. One day I can come into this room and say that life is indeed getting better.
Only God can make that happen.

Have a great mother's day weekend.. and Ernie,, treat your bride to something extraordinary special!

naps aren't allowed???????? Since WHEN? (I've been a "napper" since I was little - even 12 yo I would fall asleep at the side of the stove at dinnertime - love my warmth.......

Things are in high gear now. I got next Tuesday for a operation date. It will just be a chip shot. A bit of a nap then when I wake up I will rest while the lovely ladies see to my medical needs.I will go home when I am stable.

I am about done with tomatoes in the ground but intend to plant maybe five big pots with 2 plants in each. I am not doing this next year but if I do lol.

We'll be there with you, Ernie - taking turns holding your hand while you're in the hospital, during the operation, when you wake up in recovery, and while you're resting up getting ready to go home to your bride :-) I hope she's not the jealous type! hehehehe

Yummmm tomatoes!! I hope to be planting them this year, in my greenhouse on my new deck when we move!!

Well, getting ready to go to the church sale - have most of my stuff on my table there... here's hoping I make some $$ lol

We'll be very quiet so you can recover quickly and get back to your tomatoes, Ernie.

Susan, in tropical countries, naps are necessary for rest from the heat of the sun! Unfortunately, only in primary schools we had 'nap' breaks. Woe to the secondary school afternoon session students. Hard to pay attention when there is no relief from heat... and the worst part, my school was next to a pig farm. The scent travels to our third floor class room!!

(((((Brother Ernie))))) Yep, let the ladies spoil you. As Karen said, we'll be very quiet so you could return to your tomatoes soon.

Karen, I assume Walt and the kids will be treating you to a grand feast!

So envy you ladies that are blessed to receive cards that say "Mama".

Enjoy the day, as for me, got a card for Ida. Kel won't even get her one.

Most likely not Jaye. We went out last night for Chinese and I enjoyed it very much. I had been afraid as I had some soon after the surgery and was terribly sick. But all was well this time.
Actually we are doing some spring cleaning as it was what I was about to start when all went to hell in Jan.

Happy Mother's Day Ladies

Happy Mothers Day to Birth Moms, Adoptive Moms, Foster Moms, Moms who raised their children, and Moms who are missing their children. You are all Moms, through and through. Bless you!!

Off to the church this morning- it's not only Mother's Day, but also Membership day - we're getting out membership transferred, and we're joining those who are being baptized, and those who are joining the Church for the first time.

Wonderful messages from all of mine including my DGS in Kuwait. Always happy to see a posting from him as it means he's safe for another day.

Breakfast before mom bowls, then heading back home. Mom said she can't wait, she really didn't enjoy this trip. Not feeling good and her neck pain is really dragging her down.

Hope all of you had a very nice Mother's Day. Decided to do some more spring cleaning in my office. Have no idea where all this junk came from. Ha !! Even my furbaby is wondering where this extra space is coming from. She keeps close to me as she doesn't want to be left alone.

Going to a gardening round up next Saturday although I'm not much into doing as much as I used to. It is a ways out, but my son is all ready to take me, and hope to bring home some succulents. With our water shortage I have to make changes.

Cindy, picture of you and your mom is really nice. Guess it is time for a short nap. Yep, I need one most every day.

both of my kids wished me happy mother's day - something that's a first for me in 16 years, seeing as how I just heard from my son last Oct :-)

I haven't been able to get in touch with my mom - called her before Church, then when we got back from taking Doug to WalMart, and now a few minutes ago. She's just not in her room, I guess......

Morning everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful mothers day. It was bitter sweet for me as my mother passed away 9 years ago today, and I still miss her dearly, but Andy and his family came in for the week end, and it was so nice to have him here.
They brought beautiful roses, and a necklace that has a quilt block on it.

Ernie, I too will be there in spirit as you go through your surgery.

Love the photo Cindy!

That is a Beautiful necklace, LK!!
Sorry for the bitter part of your day..... sad memory, to be sure.
How awesome that the quilted necklace matched your top!!

Last night went to Denny's for late dinner (9pm), thanks to funds my daughter sent, for me to "do something" for Mother's Day. It was nice :-)

Woke up this morning, with my knees screaming at me. Took 2 painkillers, and a topical spray. Starting to work..............
Heard it raining, then it got quiet - it's snowing now.......
Glad we moved (when I say "we", it's the Royal We - Bob did it.....) packed boxes over to the new place, and the oak dining table. Now I have room to pack new boxes and it helps clear room for more to pack.
I cleaned more of the stove that's there, and will have to tackle the oven later - Bob sprayed the oven after SCRAPING the worst of it off. Too bad it's not a self-cleaning oven...... it would take about 4 cleanings to have done it if it were, anyway!!

Well, time to have breakfast before Bob heads to work.
I'm going to make an app't with my Dr today....

SNOW???
Sorry to hear about your knees, I sure hope the Dr. has something to stop the pain.

The top I am wearing are my PJ's. I am being lazy today.

The snow has stopped, and it's just a few clumps now. This is what Calgary's like - snow in the morning with the requisite parka, and t-shirts and shorts by the end of the day.

Karen, my heart dropped when you wrote at least your DGS will live another day.
I can imagine that lurking thought behind your family's minds as part of your daily grind.
When my godson was in Kuwait, my day goes well when his mum would messaged to tell me she heard from him.
Hugs my sister. We will be praying for his safety.

What a momentous moment to have both your kids celebrating you, Susan.
If nothing else goes well today....at least you had a beautiful Mother's Day.

Cindy, thank you for posting that beautiful picture. She looks so vibrant! Liking your hairdo too.

More space for the next set of junk, Pegi!! At least they'll be your junk. Kel's stringent control actually is a blessing. I can't do retail therapy and hence had curtailed my own junk collection!

Gosh LK, that's a very thoughtful gift! Love that pendant. How awesome is that?
Can I adopt Andy?

Sue, I am so sorry that you didn't have your kids yesterday. Karma will get to Tim. And the kids will remember how their dad chose not to let them celebrate your day.
Hugs sister.

Waiting on SIs Kathy to show us what she had!!!

Synda you are so blessed. What a wonderful Mother's Day present from Rick. A new garden!!!

Ernie, positive thoughts of healing going your way, brother.

Barb I hope your day was great too.

Sistah Judy, if you're lurking, come on down and brag what the kids did for you. Did you get breakfast fixed by your chef?

I had a peck on the cheek, and a greeting from Kel, that's all. I'm happy with that.

The rains had drowned my spirits as I missed being in the sunshine! Today the sun is out, and back to sloshing in the gardens, checking out the new transplants.

Will be attempting to do something productive like taking 3 antidepressants!!! Lololol.

My landphone isn't working again, and my cell phone's minutes are down. He thinks he's cutting me off totally, but I have this and Facebook.

You all have a great week my sisters.

No more junk, Jaye. I have enough to supply a junk yard. Seems I transfer things from one place to another and that isn't helping. I guess going to the thrift store has kept me from buying things I don't need, but I do miss going there. A peck on the check and a greeting is GOOD.

Another warm day, so I'll get some cleaning done..........maybe. Looking forward to this coming weekend, a gardening round up on Saturday and a special memorial by the hospice group on Sunday. I told my son I really want to go as this will help with closure for me and he didn't hesitate about saying OK.

Jaye - my daughter phoned from Winnipeg, posted something lovely on FB for me to see re: being thankful for the way she raised me. She sent me a card with $40 to spend on myself.
My son also posted a message on FB saying Happy Mother's Day. I wish I could have spent some time with them.
I got through to my mom today and wished her Happy Mother's Day (belatedly - just Couldn't get through to her yesterday). Had a lovely chat with her.

ok, back from the Dr. He said that I have osteo in both knees, and as the T3s aren't working and I'm in the middle of a "crisis" for my knees (moving house), he's given me oxycodone Hcl (narcotic) to see me through. They will also make me drowsy, so this should be fun... I just took 2 (can take 1 to 2 three times a day). I'd taken two T3s at 7:30 this morning and by 9:30 was off for a nap for 2 hours. Now it's just after 2pm and I've taken 2 of the new drug. I expect I'll be sleeping when Bob gets home LOL He called while I was at the Dr's to see how I'm doing - what a sweetheart. He takes such good care of me.
Hopefully this will make me function so I can pack & move...

btw - snow all gone, and it's now 11c - very sunny & fairly warm.

My Dr - I call in the morning, and see him in the afternoon. Mind you, I think I have the best Dr in all of Canada/US!! He impresses the heck outta me, that's for sure - he's the best Dr I've ever had.
