I live in down town so I’m somewhat safe.
The smoke prevented us from going outside yesterday. The biggest fire was started from a guy burning his lawn..stupid.
What fun! It seems like you are a bubbly person who makes people around you happy.
I have been in a much needed break from the kids and since last week they went back to school, I am feeling refreshed!
Now we are working on the get up at the crack dawn schedule. First few days started off well because they were excited to get back to school. By Friday I had to drag two of them out of bed and push them out the door.
It is Sunday morning and everyone is still sleeping and I am debating on letting them sleep in or getting them up to help them get on this up early schedule. I am enjoying this quite morning time to myself, so I am leaning towards letting them sleep. Before I even finished typing that last sentence, I decided I will grab my book and go sit on the deck with my coffee and enjoy the morning alone!
It is nice hearing form you. The purple streaked hair is making me happy! I love it!
Have some good memories here. Especially, the girl from Wyoming..reaching for her name. She was wanting to committ suicide. Spent so much time with her. She was SO special. C, what was her name? Got it on the “tip of my tongue!” Oh, JoJo… Have often wondered how she is doing these days. Well, when i lost interest here was when they named a certain person a moderator. Not going to mention names, but bet u know who i’m referring too. Please keep in touch my friend…take care!
Nope! Sometimes i think about making one just so i have one but I can’t think of anything that i really want to ask badly enough…
well.. anything that wouldn’t get a major amount of WTF?! and very little actual help anyway :P
How are you doing with your life? I’m pretty much ignoring facebook still - I have a profile that i look in every few months but i just have never really gotten on with it… Faaaaar too much the introvert :P
When does he leave? If it’s within 3 weeks of June 27th, he’ll be at the MTC at the same time if he’s training in Utah! Of course he might train in South America at one of their MTCs
I’ll train in Utah, then the actual mission is Nevada. Staying close to home! haha
I think he’ll be okay. Missionaries usually are, as long as they follow the rules their mission president set out for them and have faith that God will protect them! My uncle went to Columbia and found his wife while he was there! I love her, she’s hilarious. I’m sure your grandson will love the Columbians! They’re very outspoken and funny!
You are serving your missing in Nevada or is that where you go for training? My grandson’s mission is in Columbia. I am concerned about the drug related crimes in that country, but my grandson is fearless.
I am going to be sending letters and packages every week because I will miss him terribly while he is gone.
I am excited for you, Litte Iguana. Thanks for the shout.
No way! Oh my gosh, that’s so wonderful, C! I’m heading out on a mission, too! I’ll be going to Nevada on June 27th. I’m so happy for him!
I just started watching the videos that they give you to kinda prepare yourself before you head out and they just wash all of my fears away. I’m leaving a lot behind and headed towards a lot of change (which scares me), but I am going to help people change their lives and become as happy as I am! I already am dreading coming home from it haha and I haven’t even left yet!
Hi c-eek, I have not been on much lately either. I stop in for a few minutes here and there but that’s been about it.
Things are going great here. The kids are doing well and Ray has a new show coming out in a few weeks. It is called Burnout and will be on MTV2.
we just got back from visiting our old neighbors in Indiana. It was so nice to be home.
Our plans for our summer road trip have been postponed :( Our AC went out in our house in Indiana that we are leasing out. We had to spend a lot of money to get a new unit and then Rays car needed worked on which cost a pretty penny. So until this new show brings in some money, no big vacation planned. We are hoping to go to Indiana one more time this summer for my great nephews first b-day. They are having his party at the Brookville zoo in Chicago. The kids will love it.
Ray is going to be flying in from Arizona so he will be home for Fathers Day tomorrow. He likes to smoke cigars on deck, so we went and got some flowers and are cleaning up the deck so he will have a nice place to sit and relax.
The kids are in the other room practicing a dance they going to do for him. I am off to go see the preview.
I hope you are happy and healthy and enjoying life.
and do laundry and fill out forms for school. Can you belive they sent home papers to get them registered for next year already.
We are traveling to Indiana this weekend. My nephew is off the the Marines on Monday so my sister is having a party for him Saturday. The kids will be off school next week so we are going to stay and visit. I am looking forward to it and dreding it at the same time.
Book report ready, homework done, teeth brushed and mom is ready for bed too. Nice talking to you. Goodnight
I love swimming. I should check into swimming for exercise. I went through a depression and during that time stopped exercising all together. I am just starting to feel better and getting back to exercising is on my list of things I need to do to keep the depression away.
Always busy with the kids. One had to get a tooth pulled Monday after 4days of a lot of pain.
Right now I am helping one prepare for his book report that he is doing tomorrow.
And my daughter had her DI tournament this past weekend and I coach her team. They lost and she was very upset about it. So it was an exhausting weekend.
Hi c-eek. There is a new member here who has been married for I think 47yrs and now getting a divorce. She is retired with adult children and grandchildren and I just thought you might be a good helper for her. Here is here profile if you want to check out some of her post. http://help.com/user/521003-nanny
I’ve been at my job for a year, now, and love it. I’m called a respite provider for mentally handicapped kids, and I have a permanent client for nearing a year. Classes are just fun things like geologic disasters, film, religion, and Viet Nam war. I’ve been having issues with going to class, but I emailed my teachers and they’re helping me catch up on the condition that I don’t miss any more class. They understand what with my Grandpas and dog dying. Thanks for checking up on me, I love to know that you care :)
I haven’t heard from Courty in a long time, but then again I’m not really out and about on help.com…mostly just hanging around one or two posts. I’m doing well! Great job, fun classes, and a nice boy that I’m working to get for myself haha how are you?
Good to see you in here again … hoping this means you’re feeling better … ? What ever has been going around has knocked a slew of people over - hubby & I were down with it for almost 3 weeks. I’m not in here for long tonight; just popped in to check on some posts and shouts - but I let out a “whooop!” of joy at seeing your phone booth on the front page, my friend. Sending you HUGE MAJOR HUGS.
YoooHooo!! GREETINGS MY FRIEND!!! I was just about to log off; I need to step away for about 5 minutes - I’ll let you know when I’m back if I still see you in here. Meanwhile: How are you ???? Is has been soooooo strange not seeing YOU in here - been missing that phone booth of yours.
