A quick hello and good-bye. Our power was off all morning, just coming on when it was time for me to run to town, and now I'm back and leaving again, this time to take AJ to his follow up with the MD.

He's better today, overall. This morning his tongue was swollen and he coughed up some blood when he got up, but he's pretty good right now. We'll see what the doc says, but my money is on at least one more day off.

Maybe he will feel good enough for conortium. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

JE you are doing ok ... I'm way too high on happy right now to make too much sensible comment <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" />

Neak hope AJ is ok ... chemicals are far to dangerous to be 'male' about it. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" />

Give a sisterly hug from me and then conortium hug away a little after <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> no way I write this does it sound good ,,but you know what I mean !! lol <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />


Life may feel as if you are constantly getting kicked on a daily basis, living is about picking yourself up each day and going on and on and on regardless.

Why do you think she's hardly here? <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Right now she's probably just hovering over her messages, waiting for him to get in touch again. I'm so glad he'll be on R&R for a bit!

AJ is grounded at least till Monday, when he goes back to the doc again. Still no clue what the stuff was. Now they even want to know what he had to eat, in case it somehow reacted with a chemical??????? They are reaching, if you ask me.

Ooops B I wrote in Idjits <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I have been speaking to him this morning. He is still groggy according to him but feeling ok.
Still wandering a bit but thats to be expected ... still only a few scratches and scraps he says <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> .. ok whatever.

I let him hear Mikey gurgling a bit and and that was bit hard to keep it all together but in a happy way sort of, <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

A bit hard to have a long conversation as he was all over the place. thats ok. He said he would email later after a 'nap' lol

Would y'all check out the post by Manipulated 100X and see if you pick up the same creepy vibes that I did?

Edited to add:

If Manipulated 100X is reading this....no, dear, the creepy vibes are not emanating from you. I am very uneasy about your situation.

I have thought about that post Now if it is as the poster states then frankly I feel the H is a predator - might not be a Perpetrator yet ..maybe Neaksis can have a look as well.

But yes creepy .. I feel if genuine she wants someone to actually say it to her but dont know if its the right place .. maybe there is a place for such things to be aired like child protection in the US..I know our DEPT HERE WOULD BE RIGHT ON THIS if we got the report.. we'd at least look at it.

Boy, I hate my second job. I almost quit in the middle of the night, and just walked out on the spot. The only thing that kept me there was the fact that we really need the money <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" />, and that most of the times in my life that I've acted upon an overwhelming impulse, it's turned out to be a bad idea...and by the time I'm 58, I'm supposed to have learned better! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> So I still have 2 jobs, BUT I DON'T HAVE TO LIKE IT!!!!!!!!!!!! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

I did get a compliment from a crabby doctor, but that was only a drop of soothing in my bucket of discontent! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />

I'm going to bed. Maybe I'll have a nice dream. Then again, maybe not! Depends on whether or not my luck holds! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Have happy dreams tl

commune, ONE job, the south NOT too near the ocean, thats sounds nice!!

Aussie is high as a kite on booze so I'm off to bed too. It would not be smart to talk while he's drinking <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> I'd get hot & bothered ... and ..theres no one here to bother me <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Well if he needs to wind down he not going to wind me up ..lol

I wondered why he said you weren't talking to him. I didn't know anything about the bothering part <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" /> I told him it was because you were too busy out buying weapons of men's destruction, to supplement the mallet and pincers you were going to take to him to keep him marooned a little longer in a safer harbor. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Taking care of an invalid is time-consuming, so it's very nice that he's such a grateful invalid.

He had to back to the dr. today for a urine test, hoping it wasn't too late to show if benzene was the contaminant, though it's a little weird that they apparently didn't test anyone else.

She said he is a bit better than yesterday, which is good, and that all his blood test results were within normal limits. If he truly had pneumonia like the Lodi PA tried to say, he would have at least had an elevated WBC count, and he did not. Well, WE already knew that, but I'm glad everybody else knows it now, too.

The Dervish fell asleep on the way home, and just woke up again, so hopefully he goes down before 11:30. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" />

So which is worse? The drive in the cold, or the fines for overdue return? <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

Lazy or cheap? Decisions, decisions. Personally, I'd have a hard time making up my mind, but would probably go with lazy. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Morning everyone!!
Just catching up on Yesterdays posts. I read manipulated thread and I really am not getting a great feeling with this one. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" />
I dont think I will post to her, but if she reads here, I will say this. As a survivor of sexual abuse, just what she posts gives me the "willies". I have been on the recieving end of the "special" attention that preditor adults give and it is not so special. Even with quoting the scripts and all that bs. NO adult of the opposite sex or same sex for that matter should be left alone with a young child, especially one from a dysfunctional home! Children look for attention and affection in an innocent way in that instance and he seems to be right there to fill the bill.
YUCK...I really hope that I am wrong on this, but either way to help another and sacrifice not only yourself, but your family too is not Gods way. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" />
Ok rant done. Thats why I dont post alot to those types of threads as I tend to be judgemental and get alittle angry and overprotective.
So when we moving? It is 2 degrees outside and I have to get to work soon. I am ready for warm, ocean or not at this point. LOL <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />
Everyone have a great day!! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" />
