Cool, Bellevue!

My mom and sister are both Libras.

Thanks princess meggy,

You're right. And my LB is so close to the red zone that the warning buzzer is going off and lights are flashing everywhere!

Thanks, Bellevue.

Gotta go deep deep deep underground. Or into the vast, dark expanse of space (except for the heavenly bodies, that is!)

I have a clock that Jonesy bought for me 3 or 4 years ago. It plays CD's and has various nature sounds also. And the radio. So you can fall asleep listening to whatever you want and wake up to all three, if desired.

I haven't been using it, though. It makes me too sad. I don't know if I will end up packing it up with the mementos, though, since it is a needed item.

I'm gonna check out Freecycle. I never heard of it. I think we have a lot of things that neither one of us want and doubles of some stuff, too.

You gotta da rain, we gotta da fog, Luigi!

I think I'm gonna hook Nintendo back up for the weekend. The holidays are here, time for marathon Mario Kart 64 racing with my sister. Oh yeah, and BATTLE!!

My lawyer has a 64 in his office. My dentist used to have a whole room with toys and Nintendo for kids both big and small.

Sounds GREAT to me, Bellevue!!!

I think you might be right on about the letter and also erasure of messages. We already know she did that to OWH before, he told me he never got that initial evidence back in June/July.

LOL on the "wiping it off!"

Thank you, Ani!!!

You are so sweet! I am really ready for Plan B now myself. That inventory can't come soon enough and if it doesn't then I'll appoint a representative to be there with whoever will be there from my lawyer's office.

(Hey Mel...ya busy?? <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> )

Yeah, Mel would be perfect. Maybe I could get one of my very loud, very tall Czech cousins to be there. I don't know if they'd do it but they might!

Thanks again for your support Ani and...



DITTO!!!!

I am embarrassed to say in my single depression....*sigh* <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> I have turned to the PS2....yes I am a Final Fantasy Addict.....it feels better getting that out....if you come to cali we can hook up my PS2 and battle it out. I am surprised I haven't turned to HALO yet. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" />

Thank you, Josie!

((((Josie))))

I'd give you a real hug if you were here!

BTW-you can sing & record the "Pussycats" theme song for me and I'll put it on a CD for my clock!! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Hi SIHW,

You're ON!!!

I'll bring Nintendo, too. Jonesy got me a Game Cube a couple of years ago but I still like Mario Kart 64 better!
Cube is fun, though. Just waaaay harder to control the players!! FAST!!!!! Woooooo!

I just received a call from my attorney. Inventory next week. Supposedly Mr. Gray will not be here (phew!)...it is a work day and he is on "notice" at work.

So I asked him to find out when Mr. Gray plans to get the personal items he is allotted.

Waiting for the return call on that right now. I told my attorney that I'd really like to know since Mr. Gray is still not talking to me at the moment.

I did ask "What did I do this time?" when the call came in. I did think that maybe there may have been some complaint or something just because I sent a couple of emails to my former husband, the alien.

Jonesy!! When are you gonna kill Mr. Gray?

Fight him, Jonesy!! Fight him!!

So anyway, I told my Doberman that it will probably take at least 2 days, possibly 3!

I'm so glad this is going to be done quicker than the initial date requested.

I sent Mr. Gray a "thank you" email earlier. He made the deposit into our account today instead of waiting. Wow.

I also asked him how he was and that I hoped he was doing well. Wished him a nice weekend, too.

Will I kill Mr. Gray with kindness?

I started a letter to Jonesy. Not Mr. Gray. There is no begging, etc.

I was listening to John Williams earlier and thinking about the "inner child" and the one that never leaves us.

We always had that going but apparently I tried to kill mine. I don't know if I will send him this email or not.

But I feel good just writing it.

I might post it.

I think I'll take a break first, though. I have one more heat to do in Mario Kart...Game Cube version... <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I'm jealous I loved plying mario kart with my roommies and friends in the apartment complex I lived in back in 1999.
Always great fun especially battle mode with 4 people.

Strangely since my break I can't play video games. It's liek there's been a mental trigger pushed that makes me feel sick when I play.

Keep your good work. Remember it's a marathon and not a sprint to use an old cliche.

Hi 411,

Battle! LOVE it! We get so caught up in that game that we play for hours and hours...screaming and vowing revenge when that last balloon gets popped. I don't know if we'll play for hours this year but it's still a fond memory.

I wish you could still play. I'm sorry it is a trigger for you. I'm hoping that I'll be able to get into and not think about how different it's going to be this year since Jonesy will not be here for Christmas.

I'm trying to get that to gel im my head...the "marathon, not a sprint," thing.

I was just thinking that it's been a whole month since I told OWH. Sure feels like a LOT longer. I feel like I've lived a whole lifetime since "Brave New World" started.

I went to bed at 10. Woke up around 12. Said dang when I saw the clock.

I was dreaming something about Jonesy and recovery. DIL was there. Makes sense, I was talking to her right before bed. We are going to the town Christmas celebration in the morning with DGS. Later on there will be a lighted parade. It starts right in front of my grandma's house so we have great seats! The horses are never happy about it, though!

I was there last year but I didn't go outside and watch. I was depressed. I stayed inside and heard all of the fun. I remember crying. I couldn't leave so I had to wait for it to be over before I went home.

I don't even remember if I told Jonesy that I cried.

I'm starting to feel bad about the package thing. It is STILL sitting at Slag's post office. I will wait a couple of more days but after that I think I should warn Mr. Gray. Or should I? Would that be enabling? He forgot all about it. I don't know!!!!!!! I only know that taking care of his court business for him enabled him plenty when he was still here.

I don't know what to do about this. If anyone has an opinion on the matter, please let me know!

Thanks!

Charlotte...who will now attempt the extraordinary feat of FALLING ASLEEP again!!!

C22,

Like I said last night:


Now ask your lawyer what needs to happen if that pkg is not claimed by Wednesday or whatever day or deadline you need it to be picked up.

Don't sweat the stink stuff. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Now go get some rest..... see if the breathing exercises will help. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

take care,
L.

Hey Charlotte,

I take it your H is staying at the OW's house and you mailed the package to her address...and that's where your H is receiving his mail???

If that's the case, then you've more than done your part.

I hope you get some rest... if not, I'll be here!

Semper Fi,

RIF

Hi Orchid!

You're right. I don't know what I was thinking! D'oh!!!

It won't be my fault and he'll have to deal with reality. Of course he'll be mad at me but...what the hey?

He already is.

I've done my part. I tried to help him because he so obviously forgot.

I'll do better, I promise. No more fretting!! Well, I will cut down on it a bit at least! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Thanks RIF!

I have no idea, really. He was vague about it at the hearing the other day. He just kept saying he had to get a place to stay. Trying to get out of giving me support. 'sokay...my Doberman had him over a barrel and he knew it.

All I know from OWH is that her parents are extremely mad at her because of this and they own the house. Would stand to reason that she wouldn't want to p them off more. But we aren't expecting reasoning to be functioning properly in the wayward mind, eh?

So I don't know. I would think OWH might have mentioned it, but he didn't. I think he'd know. I could be wrong, though.

Of course, Mr. Gray could already have a place and just not want me to know where it is. Like I care? Like I'm gonna waste gas driving by or something? Geez, he's at least an hour away, wherever he is! Oh yeah...there's that "reasoning" again!!!!

I might try to sleep soon. I was sitting here mindlessly playing "Hearts" on the pc and trying to beat the cheatin' thang! 2nd place is my best score right now! (dang cheatin' thing!)

Hi Charlotte,

Well, if he didn't leave a good address to forward his mail, then too bad/so sad!

You've done all that you need to do...

Have you played Spider Solitare yet? I used to play that alot when I couldn't sleep, but we don't have any games on our computers over here...

Semper Fi,

RIF

Hi RIF,

You're right. I have done all I can do. I might as well stop stressing. I'm working on it! I'm sure I'll have another episode, though!

Yes, I like Spider Solitaire. Haven't been able to do more than one suit yet, though. It's so hard!!! I almost did it once but since then I've stuck to one suit.

LOL!!! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Mr. Gray turned me on to Spider Solitaire back in the day. It hasn't spoiled it for me to be able to play it, though.
