I'm reading the words...... but It's not getting through to me.

Room with a view?
I often hear of young married folks wanting to go away to romantic locations for their honeymoon. I tell them to save their money and go later, when they can properly appreciate it. They hardly ever listen, but later they tell me I was right.

T&L, you can visit any time. You were a model guest.


Neak, after reading about some of your plans on the other thread, I can see where the Dervish gets his energy from. Good for you.

AW,
My children gave me a small greenhouse for Christmas. It needs a little work before I can use it (plant benches, vent for warmer days, tool bin, etc.) I have been visiting the hardware store quite a bit, and having a great time. Now if I just had more time.

We continue to pray for your families protection and safety. God be with you.

I don't actually have the energy for it, but since God wants it done I figure He'll take care of that part of it. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

He is good at helping, isn't he. I have faith in him, but I have a lot of faith in you too. I'm glad you are willing.

How long before you go back to work T&L? Not that I want you to, but It would help me gauge how you are.

Or are you retired now? <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Just finished having worship with the Dervish. I was trying to get him to figure out the word "sin." But when I asked him what did he call it when he did something wrong, he said, "I dissipate--I mean, disobey." And at the end, when we prayed and I told him to say, "In Jesus' name," he said, "In Genius' name," so I assume he's either talking about Uncle Neakbro or himself! <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.

30 minutes after we got home from seeing Spamalot last night, my ear started hurting. 4 hrs later, I drove myself to the ER. They said I have ear infection and gave me 3 prescriptions. 3 hours later, my ear drum ruptured. Pain pills will be my friend this weekend. Children gone. Anyone want to come care for my animals until Sunday? I guess I won't be running the powerpoint presentation for church. afternoon.

So sorry - don't know how you can stand it sometimes.

It's hard to take the weekend off, when there are animals depending on you.

Send them away with the kids?

Maybe Neak can box up the Dervish and send him next day air.
He could take care of both you, and the animals.

Children went with church youth group to the mountains for the weekend. I may call my neighbor. She would gladly come over once or twice. Not only do I have to wobble downstairs, but I also have to lean over to get to the bowls. Both of those are not good ideas.

Don't you know that my boss felt horrible? I had a physical scheduled for this morning. Yesterday, he told me I couldn't have the time off to go. So, instead of missing half a day for the physical, I missed the whole day. In reality, I hurt so badly last night that I couldn't have waited 6 more hours to see the doctor.

Hope you feel better, poor thing. Sending the Dervish to you is a tempting thought...I'm sure he would feed your animals if you asked, but what else would he find to do - that is the question.

I still have the Prince's game. I could ship that at the same time.

Thanks to Mom, I am completely childless tonight. Shame I'm too sleepy to enjoy it for very long.

Do not send the dervish, PLEASE! I can't deal with a child this weekend. He would have to fend for himself, totally. Took a pain pill. Gonna let dog out for a minute and go back to bed.

Yes, but are you up to dealing with a velociraptor? No? Not one of those, either? Well, never mind then. You can't say I didn't try to help. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

No, no dervishes.

No, no velociraptors.

No, no bickering teenagers.

Yes, to someone who could clean up and cook for me. A woman can not live on juice alone.
