Sure is beautiful out there though..it's extremely cold and with the light rain we had last night everything is glistening, all the outside lights/trees, decorations..put out 2 more trees when I got home and if it wasn't so cold I'd just stay outside to admire the beauty...
So now it's bedtime...OMG I should stay up and clean the craft room..what a mess...
Here is Missy making sure the girls all know what they are doing...supervising she's good at!
A loosing proposition trying to keep the room clean...Suzanne has more to do so everything will stay on the table waiting for her to complete her projects...but she's well on her way!
Her finished project...has 7 out of the 14 done...7 to decorate tomorrow night IF I do the beard/hair at work...
Busy day at the office today...
My nieces....the view outside isn't the best right now..construction firm is putting in 4 lanes instead of 2...talk about muddy and what a traffic jam..
LOL, Betty, isn't that what craft rooms ae supposed to look like??? I don't think I have ever seen a tidy craft room!
Good night everyone, sleep tight, and stay warm.

Suzanne in her new office..she at least has the curtains up, we're still waiting until Monday once the painters finish
Oh Betty, I would love so to spend a few day in the snow but your right, I don't really know if I could handle it for a long duration. It has been 49 years since I lived there with my brother and SIL and age does have it way!!! LOL
Funny your cats name is the same nickname by brother always called me: Missy. If anyone in the family ever called me Marion I knew I was in deep trouble.
A little corner of the boardroom..waiting for boxes to be put into the file room..Monday is target day for office completion..nice place to put more santa's though..lol...
Yes Linda Kay, but I need it clean so I can set up so everyone can eat together sitting down at same table on Sunday so it will be a chore to get it cleaned...
Ask me if I'm tired of Santa yet...nodding my head yes..
Night everyone
SO VERY COLD OUT THERE THIS MORNING...THOUGHT I'D PUT THE FIREPLACE ON, MAKE US SOME CANDY CANE HOT CHOCOLATE, PIECE OF RUBY'S CAKE AND A SOFT CHAIR...
DO COME AND JOIN US.....

Ok as usual I missed a lot, but get the gist of what is going on here. Betty this thread was born out of a painful attack off of another thread, it is a group of friends, that is what it was always about. Friends who are WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET TYPE OF PEOPLE, no false pretenses, not always some important thing to say, just sharing daily lives as if we were neighbors who lived near by but we don't. So we act as if we do and share trite details and serious issues with each other.
If you don't post as often, it is just fine, because you understand when we can't post as often. We are still friends. Please don't close the thread though.
As for Gita, I don't think she means things as bad as they come out sometimes, though it does not sound very nice the way it comes across. It is odd that someone who feels that way, would even read or post here if she did not really like us. It is not easy to be understanding of that though when such blunt judgments of our mundane chat, offends and irritates her. I know she has some anger issues that come out during sentimental seasons and it is one of those times again. Gita just reread what you said. I bet you will see how it came out.
Betty I love you. You guys have been so there for me and are special as heck.
Another of the threads I visited, went south one day and one of the other regular's started up a new lighter hearted one and it was great.
It does not matter if only 1 person a day posts besides Betty, that one friend counted and was happy to see Betty post and to talk to her.
If this is feeling like an obligation at times, don't post that day B. We all get it. We will all pop in and pop out too, but it is nice to be able to do it.

helloooooooooooooooooooooo
aI have had no internet.......... aOMG i cant believe what has been happening!!
BETTY!!! dont even think it!!! i would not be alive today if it were not for you and others on this thread!! and i do mean that literally, when there was non one who understood, you were there and i juswt sat and basically breathed..... look at all the love that has been sent my way!! i couldnt survive without it.. i havnt been well enough to make my quilt yet and i havnt forgotten about it either, i have the fabric sitting right here where i can see it, from all my friends! my garden angels.
now people may come and go, they get what they need i guess, u love them bandage them and set them in their feet again , pat their butt and off they go. standing on their own two feet. why i bet if ALL the people who you have helped without thought of yourself came over to your house it would fill the whole city!!
you are a rescuer, you are his hands, his ears, his heart and he will give you what you need to keep fuelled. If you get tired and low, then we carry you awile though He is more than capable. I hope you never stop this thread, the life in here and the life that is shared by all of you, well most...... keeps me going... I may not post a lot through one thing and another.. but you know whats going on betty,,,,,,, some days it takes all the energy to breath in and out but im here...
the post was really harsh and thoughtless....i guess they skimmed over my posts that told of the chnage you have made in my life, or the love that is felt for you here,,, guess they see sharing and wanting something from you and maybe they need to trust people more.. i dont know, what i do know is i dont want to see posting like that again as it hurts people over a wide community.... nuff said about that.
your all in the holiday spirit which is so nice.... havnt really had the chance with all thats going on. Looks like we are going to take your advice betty and go bankrupt.. got an appointment after xmas. oh well what can u do...no xmas tree this year which is weird... but u know, not going to let it get me down. I have lights im going to put around the house and get some cheer in here!.
my boss has been away for three weeks and everyone at work has been so happy! everyone turned up for work everyday to the point where we didnt need the casual! that is unheard of where i work!
the second in charge that used to not likem e much and i have gotten closer and built some important bridges so thats good.
I have a new psycologist that i am starting at this week and the government is paying for that so that is good, the meds are settled in well and seem to keep things levelled which is great.
the family is welll and my oldest daughter invited me for dinner last night and put on quite a spread so things are looking up there for now.
my newest grandbaby is growing fast and i saw her on the weekend as well. lots of hugs and kisses there! very theraputic.
no package arrived, i guess it got lost so cant make the santa but i soooo appreciate the efforts to send it. it menat a lot to me to be included. hugs to u who sent it.... xxxxx
well i guess thats kinda caught u up. i would hate to see this thread go and iget hte feeling betty its not a burden for u, if it gets that way then we will deal with it.... for now im so glad to have you around, you listen, you love, you bandage. you laught with us, cry with us and are part of our family....
dont ever change my dear.
Well said Laura....so happy to see you posting....we miss you.
Sounds like a lot of things are going well now....we seem to have much in common you and I. Glad you have a new Psyc. the right person and getting the right meds sorted out make all the difference in the world....and even more important are having friends like we have here that we can talk to who understand what we are going through when so many of our friends and family do not. Hope things continue to improve maybe you and I both can get to a point where we can finish, or at least start some of those projects sitting around staring at us.......((((HUGS))))

Nice to see you post Laura, I don't post as often either, but I will always remember you and think of you and my reminder of my Guardian Angel you sent me. I know it helped me, not it, but what it represents. I will never forget that accident we were in the day after I hung it in my truck.
Getting any rain yet Laura or are you still in the worst draught ever?
