Topic : A Circle of Friends with Loving Support

 Sharon, I still have dial up, so I guess I'm not in this century either LOL!  Let me know how you like it, I have been thinking of it.  How much will it cost?  Inquiring minds want to know LOL

Jeannie - I know what you mean.  My DH works 55 hours at one job and around 20-25 at another, so it is hard to bug him to do things.  But if I do them myself, he complains and tells me he was just going to get to that and that I haven't done it right.  So I give up and look at unfinished things myself LOL  I have just learned to look past it and remember there are more important things in life than a wonderful-looking house.  It keeps us warm and dry...and someday I will have a better house (that's the secret to my keeping going!!) 

Well, I suppose it's time to fix dinner.  Not sure when I will be back on, I'll try to pop in on Sunday.  busy day tomorrow!  Should be fun though, bday dinner for my mom that I told yas about, then another Halloween parade and taking our 7 year old nephew trick or treating.  Not sure what he will be this year, but I usually dress up with him.  That's why I like to take him, I'm such a kid at heart hehehe!

 Sorry to hear about your sore knees.  Have you got the Dr Phil book?  Your local library will have one.

Are you able to go swimming - I would imagine that walking would be very painful.

That's what I'm trying to do.  That's another reason  why I am limiting my time on here right now.  As for spending time with the kids, I just don't want to miss them growing up.  They are growing up so fast and I feel like I'm missing out on a lot between house work and being on the computer.  They even are getting fussy when they see me sit down at it.  I could never pull away from you guys!!!    I think that when I get caught back upon my house work, I might be able to make in on here twice a day.  Just stretched a little thin now.  You know how it goes.  On the plus side, Hunter has learned to blow kisses!  and DH got a raise, it won't come into effect until January, but we're happy about that.  But I don't think I'm transferring anything onto my kids, I am well aware how bad that would be for them and me.  Thanks for your concern though.

HUGS LINDA

Just a quick note while the kids are watching a show.  Getting things back in order.  Starting to feel better to.  I think part of my moodiness in the posts has been PMS and part lack of sleep.  I bought some sleepy time tea and have been sleeping much better.  I rearranged my living room, Hunter's room, and Grace's room as well as vacuumed under all the furniture.  That was yesterday.  I still can't figure out how I got all the scratches all over my arms and legs though.  My sweet little Grace has been helping me and enjoying her cuddles and play times with mom.  Hunter's had his cuddles and play times to.  He's such a brute. lol.  Time to go again.
