Good Morning Everyone.
Not a good day for me and my family though. My father passed away last night. My oldest sister called to tell me, and I ended up being the one to call my other sister and brother, not a phone call I wanted to make. He has been having some major health issues in the last year or so and has been on dialysys for some time. He is in a better place now.

Beautiful cactus, Sparkle. Something I wouldn't mind having in my home if it's an indoor plant. I really like that. Remember the clematis? I am applying my green thumbs to one of them this spring.. I hope it takes off. Enjoy the morning everyone..

Whew, yesterday was a roller coaster for me. From sad tears to happy tears when DS called to tell me he got the job he really wanted.

kimber: So sorry to hear of your loss.
I have strep throat so have felt like a mac truck ran me over then backed up! On medicine starting today so starting to feel better. Have had to cancel all my appointments for this week. Also trying to keep the kids from catching it. I will be non contagious starting tomorrow, so I will be doing laundry cleaning and lysoling the house.

Dear Kimber, I'm so sorry for your loss. That's a tough one. I lost both my parents, I relate as my mother was on dialysis, she hated it and it took it's toll on her. Thoughts and prayers are with you.

Thank you all for your kinds words, the funeral is tomorrow morning. Between DH and I, this is the first parent we have lost. I am the youngest of 4 and was a Daddy's girl. My only comfort is that he is in a better place.

Kimber, I'm so very sorry for your loss. My condolences to you, to your family, and to friends of your dad. It's never easy, and there are no magic words to poof the pain away. You loved him, and he loved you. That's the gift he leaves with you.

Hey all! Heart: Glad to hear about your DD stopping by! How fun! Weezy: Enjoy Daphne: Glad such good things are happening! I gotta tell ya I was expecting to be 100% and feeling much better. While I am doing a lot better it feels like something is settling in my lungs, not sure I can get a respiratory infection while on penicillin. Oh well we will see. May be an expensive year with the Doctor, at least I have insurance even if it isn't the best.

You are More Than You Know ~ You are not your car, your job or your bank account. These things are useful & they help you to make your way through the world, but they do not define you. You are not your problems, your failures or your disappointments. These things challenge you & can ultimately help you to grow, but they do not have to limit you. You are the child who danced in the sunshine, the young person who dreamed of changing the world. You are the admirer of all the beauty around you, a spirit who cannot be tied down. You are the best that you can imagine, a bundle of possibilities yearning to be fulfilled. The shallow, superficial things will define or limit you only to the extent that you let them. Pay attention to them, but don't give your life to them. You are so much more. ~Ralph Marston HAPPY VALENTINES DAY EVERYONE

Happy Valentine's Day! Kids are having a blast. DF and I will not be going out tonight, but then again we only had low key plans. We will celebrate our 13th anniversary next Tuesday. Hmmm will have to plan something!
Amazing how different our lives are now compared to when we started dating 13 years ago!

My wife and I got together 33 yrs ago, just after highschool What we have weathered in 30 plus years, we could fill a book, Addiction, recovery, loss of family members, job, etc, etc, etc, life! Congrats early , Mitten ;D

Bye all, off to vacation! Wish me luck lol. Roy: I think a lot of todays problems with relationships is that when the going gets rocky people bail rather then tightening their belts, putting their seatbelts on and working on it. There are days when I tell myself I am CHOOSING to be in this relationship. He may not be perfect but then again neither am I. We haven't dealt with addiction but we have had family members lost, children born, disabilities dealt with, job gain, job loss, moving homes, financial gain, financial loss etc. It hasn't been a smooth road but it has been an exciting one!

Hi all, my iron is still low, they ran more tests, scoped my digestive track and everything . . . . haven't found a darn thing yet that could be causing it. You don't want your stomach scoped, it stays sore for a while afterwards. I don't think I could eat without some mild pain until the next day. Well I'm glad they found nothing wrong . . then again, I wish they would find an answer. I have to wait until the biopsy comes back before I can make a doc appointment. Although they didn't find anything, they still took a biopsy to see if they missed something. IDK. (that's as much of an update as I can give the people who have asked for one.) Uncle Sam didn't make good on depositing my return when he was supposed to. (dang government) So I am still using daughter's laptop. So only here for a short time.

I see now why some of my friends have left these boards for good. I still don't know why I keep coming around.
