Well, I should be packing, because the movers are coming on Friday. The problem is I am very unmotivated, so I have only packed 1/2 box. :( I put packing next to my name to remind me to get off of here and pack, but it is not working. I leave on my long road trip on the 13th. I will have to go one week without my stuff. How are you doing?
I’m doing well. I had a skills and drills clinic on Friday so I have learned a lot of new things. I am glad to hear that things are moving forward with your hockey deal and I am sure you will do fine.
I’m ok at the moment thanks Em, been so busy I haven’t had time to think (which is a relief). I hope the hockey thing goes well, I’m totally rubbish at sport but admire anyone that has a go! I remember doing hockey at school and getting very bruised shins!
Thank you Emilie… I am sorry too… I guess I should have considered that it could happen, however, I had grown complacent, things have been better lately.. and the posts had been peaceful… however, that cut to the bone.. and I just wanted it to stop… I know that there were many on there that truly wanted to help.. and I appreciate it greatly.. however, I just can’t deal with it, now… maybe later, but, not now.
Hey Em, hope you’re ok…did you go ahead with the hockey team? I didn’t get to that post before you closed it but I thought it was a great thing to do.

Hi Emilie T. Please do not blame yourself. I cannot say how shocked I was by how the post deteriorated, from such a loving motive. Take heart in that you were doing a wonderful thing.
Emilie.. can you please find a way to close the post about Jason… it hurt me to see some of the things that are being said… and I don’t have a close button on this end.. PLEASE FIND A WAY TO CLOSE IT.
Sounds good to me, and everyone that posted on his posts, or the ones that I made concerning him, could be invited, as well as others that may know nothing of it. If everyone pitched in a few dollars it would help greatly. And thanks very much for bringing it up. (((hugs)))
Hey.. I just had another thought… we were planning on buying him a tombstone, if you would like to help with that, it would be very welcome. I had not even thought of letting others share in this. But, it is very possible to make a post, asking for donations… most of the posts here are for advice, but, his life touched several… and I am sure that they would each like to contribute in this way. Thank you so very much for asking about this. I will find out exactly what a tombstone will cost, (we have an estimate of 500.00 to 800.00 for a small one, and will try to find the best deal possible, (was going to do that anyway) and then, I will either give you a shout, along with the others, or make a new post…. in the mean time, if you know of others that are interested, please start mentioning it. I will get it all worked out on this end, and post a place for the money to be sent…. if by any chance it should exceed the amount needed, we can go back to the givers and see what they want done with the excess….. Perhaps, giving it to a homeless shelter??? or setting up a fund for his children… provided that someone could locate them….
You just opened up a great idea…. thanks a bunch…… (((hugs))))
Thank you honey… for your kind words, and your offer of help.. it is greatly appreciated…. however, everything is good on this end. Meaning.. all has been done that could be done.
He has two children in Florida, but, I was not able to locate them.. if that was possible, that would be the place to send the money, but, its not, as for now, anyway.
Not one family member was able or willing, or notified(as the coronor was handling this, and would not give out any info. I tried unsuccessfully on the web, to find info, and only got names,so, I just had to let it go)
One day, when his children are older, and on their own.. they may or may not come looking for him. I kept what little possessions that he had, just in case someone really wanted them. They are precious to me, but, I would very willingly give them to his blood family, if they wanted them.
Pictures,that were taken while he was here, obituary, bible, ss. coffee mug that he carried with him, always.Very little else.
There is a site called www.wishuponahero.com many people come there for help, and sometimes they ask for very little. It might be very comforting to go there and pick out one to help, in Jasons memory… Just a thought.
It is so wonderful to know of the ones that truly cared… even though they did not konw him.
Many blessings.. to you, for your kind and caring heart. (((hugs)))
Will look forward to that very much(your cakes will be talked about for generations to come! - little parcels of loveliness)
Night love, speak tomorrow xx
Yeah…when I’ve worked out how to do it! (was shouting at myself only 10 minutes ago! - little steps):-)
Does seem to be quite compulsive viewing; can see why you spend hours on it!
NO I AM NOT!!! Just thought I’d check the post things out a bit - can’t be bothered to go to sleep yet (need to wind down a bit after ‘non computerised’ people all day!) x Hope you sleep good x It’s kinda weird chatting this way btw. Fun though!
