Y'all are the best!~




I just have to take a moment and tell all of you how much I appreciate your taking the time to comment me and let me know I was in your prayers and good thoughts. I cannot tell you how much that means to me. You are the greatest friends one could ask for and I treasure each of you. Part of the problem has been resolved. I hope the other part goes as smoothly. To make a long story short, I had a major tif with two family members, one being my sis and the other being my 1st cousin who is like a sis to me because my Mom helped raise her. My sis and I worked things out last night at my daughter's Halloween party, so we are cool. I took all the blame, hugged her, told her I didn't want any major problems with her like that again, and that I loved her very much. Haven't seen my cuz yet to work it out with her, but hope to real soon. I am confident it can be worked out.


Last night, we had a Halloween party at my Mom's on the lake for my daughter. She invited 30 kids. Six showed up (secretly, I was very grateful). Five members of my family showed up. We had the boathouse decorated and the outdoor kitchen. We had a nice toasty fire going in the outdoor fireplace and a bonfire going as well. It was supposed to be a costume party, but costumes weren't required. I thought it very funny that all the girls dressed up and none of the boys did, lol. Even I dressed up. I called myself Snow Dark instead of Snow White. Hee...


My Mom made some of her homemade chilli. We also served hot dogs and chips. My mom made some cupcakes and she and my niece, April, decorated them halloweenish. They were too cute. We had punch complete with body parts (floating eyeballs and hands). All in all, we had a great time.


I do have some pics, but will have to have my Mom email them to me, as my personal computer is down right now with many viruses and this is my work computer and I am not allowed to put anything not work-related on it. Guess that's all the news for now.


Happy Haunting!~

Hi hon. So glad you and sis are okay now. Hope you're feeling better too. You've been through a lot, still going through a lot. But know you're not alone. You've got the LORD, and an awesome support system right here.
Love you much,

Take care, Chrissie

I just stumbled in here somehow - and somehow it's as if I was reading about my own journey.

I will be back, but I want to tell you that you are not alone.

And I loved that graphic - "the seven dwarfs of menopause".

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, MY LOVE!~

Thirty years ago today, October 7, 1978, I was in a white dress and veil walking down the isle to say I do to the love of my life, Donnie. Just months before, I had broken off an engagement with another guy that I had dated for probably 1.5 years. Donnie had also just been through a prior fairly long relationship where there had been talk of marriage. It is at this time of my reminiscing that I am glad that those prayers I prayed to God to be with the one prior to Donnie went unanswered. Donnie, too, had prayed and prayed about being with his prior girlfriend. They had planned to grow old and gray together and he was quite devastated when she broke things off with him, but you see, God had another plan… It started one night when my sister wanted me to go with her to her boyfriend, Melvin’s church to meet a friend of his. She was telling me how goodlooking she thought this guy was and how she felt we would be perfect for each other. I still wasn’t over my boyfriend, but I went along wit

Pray For Me and/or Hold Good Thoughts For Me!~

I'm the mouse here. I have had a most emotionally draining day and could so use prayers and/or good thoughts. I thank you in advance. Susan

Tonight...

I have learned why I have pretty much become a hermit and keep to myself. I obviously don't have sense enough to socialize or be in public. I never seem to say the right things. Is there not anybody out there that understands me and won't judge me? Is there anybody I can talk around without fear of saying the wrong thing and being misunderstood? That knows me well enough to know I do not have a mean bone in my body, and that knows I am a good person, a person worth knowing. I am repeatedly told I get too involved. If I do, it's because I care. Why does that always have to be such a bad thing? We went to Wal-Mart today to pick up a few things. My son and daughter were with me. He kept getting on to me for getting in people's way. I was oblivious. They were getting angry with me. It sux to be sick and not have a brain anymore. I will be driving and have blank-outs. Notice I did not say black out, I said blank-out. Everything I know will just leave me, my mind just goes bl
