Ginger - did you check out the picture link in that thread on EN? You should. MB has some mighty fine looking folks out here. And some creative ones.

I intend to relax. (I think). I don't know if relaxing is in my vocabulary.

As far as the Naked pics and whips go, who knows what will happen at the next MN MB get together. I think Chocolate should be made accountable if she forgets to bring the whip. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />

I tried to find it but did not know how I went to the EN forum but did not see the pic.tell me how to find it.

Well the kids are here and it is none stop now my little grand daughter wont let me out of her site she is just a year old and a doll.I am not saying that just because she is mine she looks just like one of those porclin dolls you buy blue eyes brown hair chubby cheeks and now she is trying to help me type,God really blessed me when he sent her into my life.She looks more like she should my baby then my own children do.
My H always tells our D she should have named her Ginger because he thinks she looks so much like me.I think she is a whole lot better looking but I am proud of her.I love them all they are my joy in life.

I will check in over the next few days when I can keep in touch.

Sue, Ginger,
have a really good weekend - and come back and tell us about it.

I expect to hear that Sue had a great time, and that she is happier than she has been for a while.

I suppose I better check out the photo thread, is there a photo of Sue?

I wonder, she is kind of bashful in some ways, I'll have to look.

Nope, no picture of me. The most recent one I have has me looking like a convicted felon (my work ID picture).

Other than that, I have not had my picture taken since my oldest was babtized. Yes, it has been that long. I've lost weight since he was born, no pictures taken with me in them. Gained it back after birth of D. Since I have gained weight, I will not let anyone take my picture unless i have to, such as work. I look like a whale. I could put in the one I gave my H 12 years ago.

Ginger - enjoy the grandbabies.

I'm not really looking foward to tomorrows events. My knee is still bothering me. H says if it still hurts, we will go in the AM, do his volunteer time, let the kids watch the parade, and go home. Either tomorrow or the day after we will go to the cabin.

If I don't check in on Monday, it means I got put in jail for starting a fire.

You should think about some time for SUE. I would bet with school and everything you haven't had much. (not counting down time for the knee, because you can't enjoy it properly)

Think also about the rule of time for marriages. It may very well be that H would respond well to you spending time with him. You might respond well to it - how about that?

I am looking forward to the cabin trip, that sound relaxing and fun. H was thinking that we might go there tomorrow after the parade instead of Saturday. We have to find someone to let the dog out, before we can commit to staying the weekend. The sponsor of the team, I have not met him, I did talk to him on the phone, he sounds like a very nice man. Very attentive to his kids. Maybe he will be a good influence on H.

On the 4th, H was volunteered (he did not volunteer him his dad did) to do security at a bar for a fundraiser). H is doing the AM shift, so he will be done by the time the parade starts.

After I pass boards, I'm going to see if I can change my working hours to work during the day, while I look for a job. I saw some I wanted to apply for, but I don't know if I should at this time. A couple of them are at a childrens rehab hospital.

Lets see you

Ginger - see if the above link works. It is the pictures

The 4th parade we went to, I did not have much fun. Trying to keep kids from not running off, when they were excited, because I could not keep up was tough.

The cabin was great. We might go back tonight We were invited to stay, at the time we left the house, we did not have anyone for our dog, and we were not going to bring him along, since it was not our place. We found someoneon on the way. H did not have his diabetis medication, so we went home. They told us if we want to come back we are more than welcome. Kids had a great time. The only time I had to watch them was when they were near the water.

We are trying to find someone to take the dog out so we can go back up for the night tonight.

H was great. He was playing cards, "sandwiched" between two young girls, I came up, and he started teasing me. (fun tease). Later, during the fire works, I went and sat on the swing with H and our S#2, H put his arm over my shoulder. He kept it there the whole night. It carried over into this morning.

Sue,
Good for you. Go back if you can. Getting away always seems to help.

No fires Ginger, I suppose the fire dept probably still likes me this year. All the neighbor kids came over and brought fireworks their mothers wouldn't let them do at home. We did them all. No on was hurt or maimed or anything!!

I was surprised to see you girls here today.

Well our holiday started on the 3rd.My D and her H brought lunch to me at work my H even took his lunch hour the same time so we all had lunch in my break room together so I thought this is the beginning of a great weekend.
We went swimming and BBQ dinner that night I called H at work ask him to bring home a few things we needed,he did along with a whole lot of beer and other alcohol drinks.That is when my weekend turned bad.
I came into the house once to get something, I find him downing as fast as he could a bottle of beer while pouring on into a cup he thinks I am stupid and can not count how many he has drank.The evening went on and he got drunk started acting stupid and the flood of memories of a life already lived came crashing down on me.It brought back all the feelings of last year when H was involved with OW.I tried so hard to be happy,could not.

It was a repeat performance on the fourth even my teen D made a comment about her dad being drunk the sick feeling in my stomache was back and I have not been able to get rid of it.To top things off I had to go to the mini mart to pick up some ice and the girl working the counter asked if H and I were still together.I said yes why,she replied"Just the way he is when he comes in here gave me a feeling you to were no longer together". I wonder what he does when he goes there I know he is a big flirt but I am tired of this......broken promises of change.That night he passed out on the bed.

Sue,I am so glad to hear that your H did what he did I am so happy for you. You deserve a nice holiday after the last few.

SS,I'm glad you did not start a fire I would hate to have to say I think I know that person on the news.
We also did firworks on the street my grandson had a blast he was so excited.The one good thing was watching him during that time.

We went back, stayed the night. It was great. I had a very relaxing time.

I think H did too.

Mostly sat around, watched the fire works, we brought some too. Lots of space for the kids to run around. As long as they followed the rules, which they did, it was a great time.

Gotta go, I'm tired.

Oh, SS, I'm glad there were not any fires

Sue,I am so glad to hear that you had a great time over the weekend maybe it will be the start of a new begining for you and H.A small step anyway.

Just a big rollercoaster of emotion for me,I lost it last night LB's flew out of me everywhere.Today I just shut down,havent said much to H,I don't know what to say he seems brain dead,he just does not get it.

I wonder if I could get him a brain transplant. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

Hi Sue....Glad your fourth was peaceful and that you enjoyed yourself. Stay strong and study hard.....I know brighter days are in store for you.

I had a really good time at the dude ranch....better than H....he's such a homeboy! It rained alot so that put a damper on things, but all and all it was wonderful.

ginger, I hope to read your post tomorrow. I'm sorry to hear about the LB fest....not the best fireworks I'm sure. What was that all about? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="images/icons/frown.gif" />

ginger,

Went back on the last page and got the low down on the things that happened around the holiday. That incident in the store must have been a slap in the face. I don't know much about you and H, but I'll keep researching and listening....just know that I am looking over your shoulder, offering mine, and sending prayers your way. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />
