Somehow, the squirrel left his place of death yesterday afternoon. Perhaps the police released the body to the morgue, or have I been watching too much crime TV?

Hi Everyone-

My daughter spent 2 whole hours with me!!!! That is like a record. She is rushing a sorority and I learned everything and more about the process. She is excited about it.

Morning class was brutal this morning. My brain just wasn't "on". I am planning on making some adjustments in tonight's class. Hopefully, it will go smoother.

My love to all!

Did you know

The fingerprints of koala bear are indistinguishable to that of a human

You’ll know you are ‘mature'
Middle age is when your age starts to show around your middle


Just a groaner
There was this guy and he had a girlfriend named Lorraine

One day he went to work and found that a new girl had started there..
Her name was Claire Lee and she was absolutely gorgeous.
He decided that there was nothing left to do but break up with Lorraine.

Next day they went for a walk along the riverbank.
Lorraine slipped and fell into the water. The current carried her away
The guy stopped for a moment …. but then ran off smiling and singing

"I can see Claire Lee now. Lorraine has gone".

Hi all, I'm on "vacation" by the ocean. So far this has meant that my sister is getting free baby sitting. Not so relaxing.

I had a bone scan and it showed significant damage to the bones in my right knee. There's no cartilage and my kneecap is terrible. The left knee isn't far behind. I've trained physical therapy, building muscle around the joint, and I'm not allowed any nsaids. My pain management Dr gave me a couple steroid injections but it quickly became apparent that I'm allergic. That's another factor messing up my vacation. I had my last injection the day before I left. The pm said to expect to easily overheat, feel dizzy, headache and just general malaise for a week. He has given me some meds to help but I am sweating through my clothes several times a day. I feel yucky.

My Dr located an ortho near home willing to take a look at me. My joints aren't formed like everyone else's and I'm only 31 so none of my local drs will help. They all agree that a knee replacement is the logical next step but won't do it. I'm hoping this new Dr (he's located at a university hospital) can help. Hop e you are all well!

Hey AV.

Hope that things work out so you can get a knee replacement. Sounds like you need one badly.

Hope your vacation gets better.

Sorry all, haven't been posting a lot, but do read... Just busy this summer. I hope you all have an awesome day...

Hugs, Karen...

Morning all-

Now Joyce, I will admit that I am in the process of my first cup of coffee and at first I didn't get the groaner. Then I did and I snorted coffee everywhere!!!! Too funny!!!!!

AV- sorry to hear about your medical update. I do hope your vacation gets better.

HT- hope you are sleeping well.

Karen- how does the perm look? How long does it last for you? It's something I have considered.

Question of the day- Do you believe in soul mates??????

No I have not done anything crazy! It's just a question and I am curious as to your thoughts.

I have a endo appt down at the Med Center today. I pray for an easy trip.

My love to all-
Michele

I use to believe in soul mates Chele,

I think it is real hard to know who they are. You can feel so connected with somebody, then it goes away in time. So then you aren't sure. That is something we probably know more later on in life...

My perm came out good. They got it good and tight on the top as I asked, last time it wasn't. Very curly. I can wash it today, yay!!! They tell me to wait 48 hours.

Thanks for asking...

Very nice here this morning, suppose to rain later on. More rain in Texas I heard. Chele beware...

Take care all...

Hugs to everybody!!!

Oh Lordy Karen-

We have high rain chances the next 10 days! I will be sneaking in pool time when I can- even if it is the middle of the night. Can the moon help with my tan? I honestly believe that the sun I am getting is helping tremendously with my depression. I take D3 supplements but nothing beats the real thing!

Have a super day!!!!! I still need Jasmine pics!!! The more the better!

Chele, Karen, no, I don't believe in soulmates anymore...

It's a rainy day here today. Another tropical wave.

AV, sorry about your scan results. I hope you will get to enjoy the rest of your vacation.

Have a great afternoon everyone.

Hazy, hot and humid, tropical weather in NJ today. 4:21 p.m. and 99 degrees in my living room with all of the windows open and the fan on! This is why you won't see much from me over the summer!

I have a speaking engagement tonight and don't know how I am to look like anything other than a wet dish rag!

I've tried those new 'cooling cloths' and they work pretty good!

Hope everyone can find a comfortable temperature!

I'm at the gulf of Mexico. It's so humid!! The kids have been swimming a lot. I'm taking them to a marine life museum tomorrow and they are excited.

The kids were supposed to have a small birthday with the family that lives here. Unfortunately, since my last post my sister found out that her husband is having an affair. Everything is way over dramatic and draining now. My mom and my grandmother are of differing opinions on what to do. I don't plan on being involved. My sister and I aren't close and I think she needs a little space to think. Anyway, my sister now says she is too busy planning a divorce to do the birthdays.

I'm ready to go home and stay there forever. This has not been relaxing at all.

sorry about that av. hi all. soul mates. a mate of the soul. the soul of a mate, to know ones soul, them yours, well, this is a perception, and it reads like this: what is given, is what is received, and what is received is given-and in this process our soul grows. the people matter not(pertaining to relations) , as the soul is within, out and intrinsic. with positive life force it is spread. by this our soul grows, and we are it's mate. that's my deep philosophic moment moment for the day. (this is just my view)

Morning all!

HT, UA, and Karen- thank you for your replies. To me love is a verb, an action- not a state of mind or feelings. It is a commitment to actively invest time into a relationship. Maybe I see it differently than others.

Some good things are happening in my life right now. I'm keeping everything into perspective. I plan on this being my last year where I live. When my son graduates next year, I plan on moving back to the country. This is an exciting time for me as I plan for my future.

Today is pool day since we will have storms the next two days.

I hope everyone has a super day!

Chele, I'm jealous! We have storms here now. The kids are upset because we were going to go to the beach. I found a marine life place where they can actually touch some of the animals and get in with dolphins so we are going to do that when the weather improves.

Pitmom, I hope your speaking engagement went well. Thats awesome and I'm sure you will do great.

UA, Jamie, Karen, and PA, I hope you are all having a good day!

With everything going on with my sister (her husband snuck back to their home last night and took her car) I've been busy with all 5 kids. It's a bit crazy. My youngest nephew is 2 and just stuffed with energy. I may need a vacation from my vacation! Lol.

There's a tug of war going on over my sister right now. My mom and my grandmother want to be the ones deciding what my sister should do. Right now it looks like she will be coming back to Arkansas with her 3 kids. It's already been suggested that she could live with me but I said no. It just wouldn't work so she's going to live with my grandmother.

I know this is long but there's so much happening and I need to vent it. I found out last night that the reason my sister moved to Mississippi is because she had been doing crack with her friends. My mom has been paying their rent, utilities, for my sister to go back to school, and a car. I had to call and ask to borrow 30 dollars from mom a while ago and she chewed me out. If the kids weren't having so much fun I would just go home.

AV, I'm sorry about your sister. Do try to enjoy the rest of your vacation. Have some fun. You deserve it! The marine life place sounds exciting.

Chele, I've just came out of my relationship, maybe that's why my perspective on love is not too good. So I'm sorry.
I'm glad things are going well for you. This is great to hear!

Karen, not sure if I missed your post... Hope you're okay?

Hi pitmom, HT, Myself, AngelLisa, everyone.

I had a very busy day at work from 7:00am. And even busier when I got home. I'm still doing stuff for work. I am happy to be busy. It keeps me occupied and takes my mind of things (you know what things).

Have a good night all!
