I forgot ..............

I wanted to say a special prayer for a few people.
One daughter that needs guidance in what to do.....................you know who.
One daughter that needs prayers for her health, family and all the changes that are going in her life right now.... you know who.
One friend that is going through tough times in her family life and pray that the right decisions will come her way....you KNOW who you are.
One that I know whose husband is very sick and needs prayers that he wont suffer too long and that she gets to spend positive hours that are left for them....you know who.
A friend that is getting test done and hope that the results are negative in a positive way.... you know who.
And for all the rest of my family - friends included - and may they all understand what is coming their way and take every moment with joy and peace....you know who.
Me - help me to understand and accept...............

Amen

FUN!!!! FUN!!!! Day

What a fun but tiring day.
Met a friend/my hairdresser for coffee at 7:45 this morning.. yes I was up and going at that time. We chatted about many topics that girls talk about. Boys, shopping, boys, decorating, boys, hair, clothes, boys, jewelry, home parties and more talk about boys.
Then we went to her shop and she cut my hair and got it styled. More talk and more fun about going to coffee again and making a habit of it. She is a lot younger than I am, more my DD's ages, but we still have some things in common.
I stopped at a DD's house and dropped off some stuff, went to Penneys -got myself a couple of things, the grocery store and then home to collapse for an hour.
Off again to have lunch with the girls at work. One the rest of us dont get to see very much and if was good to see her and get to talk to her. It seemed a little odd at first like we didnt know what to talk about if it wasnt work but I think it all came together by the end since we were there for 1 1/2 hours. The time went by really fast. Of course the food was great.
Then to the scrap book store -they just called and I won two prizes from their store.. WOO HOO - had to buy a couple of things and some paper. Then to a different grocery store and home.
Now I had to pick up the house and do a couple of things before my other friend came over to watch movies.
He got there at 4pm and we went to the movie store, Could not decide on a movie but it was his choice. Came home, watched his flop of a movie pick but we made fun of it the whole time so that made it better. Then we went to the same place for dinner that the girls and I went to for lunch. It is my favorite place so it was okay by me. Home and I got to pick a movie and it was a funny one. I had seen it already but I like to rewatch movies.
I wonder home many times I have seen "Return to Me" or "You've Got Mail"? Too many to even count I am sure.
Now I am ready for bed but wanted to mark my day because it was such a different one for me and full of energy, laughs, new experiences, and just full.
But cant go to bed yet. Have to call CA but I am going to set a timer this time. We get to talking and it is almost midnight before we stop. I need to get some scrapping done. I just got 53 pictures in the mail today so that should keep me busy for awhile since I havent done the 75 I got a couple of weeks ago.
Today was a good day and I feel like I have gotten on top of ........................... I dont know what but I feel good, tired but good...........full and gained probably 5 pounds today, but still good.................
I am grateful for my family, friends, good food, fun, .........................
Talk more to you later......................................

"Grey's" is on and i just want to cry. No one is happy, no one is whith who they should be with, everyone is moe like me............ Except they have the one's that they love right there and could be with them if they would just say what is on their mind. They just said "it hurts to grow up". Boy is that the truth. Breatkup kiss, break up sex, but there is still the person there for them. Geroge and Izzy the looks the words, the tears...........

Now "Big Shots" is coming up and another show of Hotties.... Of course most of them are cheating or being asked to cheat. Well maybe not all of them but some of them. How good is that? I lived with one of those for 6 years - even though he wasnt a hottie like they are. It isnt worth living with someone like that. How can you trust them, why should you trust them, is there ever going to be trust again, why not just leave first? Honesty.. who has it ... who wants it...

On "Saving Grace" she starts her show having an affair with a married man. Her thoughts on it is that it is wrong or at least that is what she things down deep. But she tells him "why should I worry, I am not the one that is married?". Is that the right attitude? Someone is always going to get hurt. Maybe all three people in that kind of relationship. Can anything good come out of it? Can anyone be satisfied with that has happened?

Desparate Housewives" another one that is telling the public that everyone should have a married life like that. I dont think it is. I think there is a soul mate for everyone. You dont always know where you are going to meet or if you are even going to get together in this lifetime.

Okay enough sol searching and life searching.

I will be back later..................

What I'm Watchin'

Loved "Boston Legal"last night. Alex and Denny have such a wonderful relationship. There aren't too many men that would have a bathroom conversation like they did. Shirley and the new guy being an item. (why can everyone have a guy and I cant find one????? or have the one that I want???)
"Private Practice" is on tonight and I cant wait to see how good this is going to be. The kiss between Addison and Tim Daly's character - WOW. HOT!!!!! I didnt like her when she first came on Grey's but then she was okay because she seemed more vulnerable. Amy Brenerman is one of my favorites too when she was on "Judging Amy". The little hottie surfer dude. Okay I need to come up with names for these guys. McKisser and McHottie
"Dancing with the Stars" is going to be good and I will watch it but it is always better when the bad ones have been weeded out. I wasnt suprised that the girl model was the one to leave. Dolly Parton and Wayne Newton need to compare plastic surgeons. Does she have any ribs left????
"Side Order of Life" has to be one of my favorite summer shows that is still on. I will watch it and record anything else on the DVR. Cellphone guy.... Cant wait to see who he is. I dont think he is the guy she just met.
See again everyone has someone to talk to, to flirt with, to play with, to talk to for a long time on the phone........
Oh I have my family - who I love dearly and enjoy talking to on the phone and even my DYS (although we really arent related) for hours on end - but it still inst the same. The flirting the teasing the what-if's and the wish I could's or could if only's, the email playing's , the phone playing's . . . . . . . . .

So I guess I will have to see what else is coming on the rest of this week and next. What new things will I be exploring in the land of television? Hunky men, girl from the bar, ugly girl in braces, wonderful neighborhood with hot ladies, men in bushes (trees) ....

Oh, I will be back...................

Busy weekend

It is Sunday and the only sound is the keys clicking on the keyboard and my music in the background or foreground since I like to listen to it loud. I think the only place I am going today is to Sonic to get a pop and then only if I cant talk someone into getting it for me.
One of the best weekends. My OLDEST DD and DGSs come out for two days. I took 43 pictures and wish I would have taken more. (might that be the scrapbooker in me???) The whole family got together and played games and laughed and enjoyed each other like we havent in a couple of years. I just wish they lived closer so we could do this more often. Such personalities that just melded together and worked together. It was fun having the boys here. I just could go on and on and on saying how much they were enjoyed and loved by everyone. Emma and even Tilley warmed up to them right away.
Fun, Love, Love, Love, Laughs, Hugs, Fun, Music in our hearts, Coming home, (I just dont know what other words to describe what it meant to me. I know that Steve was here with us and listening to us - T & T cheating at pictionary - keeping us all safe)

I have been doing so good exercising and then I hurt my back or hip last weekend so I went a whole week not doing anything. Now the doctor says that I can walk the treadmill again but that is all right now. I am NOT going to day. I just want to veg. Do some scrapping, watch some football, read my new CK magazine and maybe even start my new book. C brought me some new wine to try so I might even uncork that and try it.

Have a good day, blog, and I will back soon......................................

Sad Day for a friend. .

I do feel better today as we got the air conditioner working.
BUT saying that I just got off the phone with a friend whose husband was sent home because there was nothing else he would let them do for him at the hospital. She right now is not able to leave the house for fear of him passing when she wasnt there and he is still somewhat aware of what is going on. It was hard to talk to her and try to be strong for her. I felt like I wanted to yell at her. I wanted to tell her that it wasnt fair that she got to spend the last days and seconds with her DH. I didnt get that time and her husband wasnt that good to her to begin with. Why does he get these extra days and we didnt? Why is their business going good and why does she have someone to run his business to keep it going? Oh I know what you are thinking - no one promised that life was fair. So what makes that the thing that we have to accept?

I have posted on here twice and both times I have complained about something.
I want to go outside and loose myself in my plants, but I cant because I hurt my back - really my lower back - and I cant bend over...

So I am going to bet myself lost in getting my house cleaned up for my DD and DGSs coming in tomorrow to visit. Then I will get myself lost in my scrap room where it is a safety net for me.

Thank you all for your posts and support. Thanks to anyone who wants to listen to me.
One thing you will learn about my posts is that I start most with either "SO" or "WELL".
I love my family......................all four of my DDs, my five DGDs, 2 DGSs and my younger DS....
you all know who you are....

This is my first post so you are going to have to bear with me on what to say and how much I ramble.
I had a bad day and was very cranky when I got home. I thought this might be a perfect thing to get me going on feeling better. It was a bad day because we did not have air conditioning. It was in the high 80's or low 90's today but it sure seemed hotter in the office. Actually this was the 2nd day of it.
I don't like to be cranky or unhappy. I have tried to turn a new leaf since July, that the glass is not half full or half empty. I am going to see the glass as having room for more.
Improvements of oneself is where I am trying to get. It is about time to start to grow up and get myself back. Whoever that self is.
You know life is so short and we always think of what we are going to be doing tomorrow or next summer or when this happens or when that happens. I am just wondering what happened to the last 25 years. Where did they go? I went to sleep and they were gone.
I sure didn't mean for my first post to be so down and so negative. I will try to be better on my next one.
I have a lot to look forward to in the next coming days and am excited to see what the world and God has in store for me.
So thank you for reading, I want you to know that I am really not negative, just blowing off some of that steam from the heat in the office today.
Have a good night, sweet dreams, and let the sunshine in.
