Also I can't wait till the 31st, my nephew will be born via C Section that day!!!!! |

I adore my mother....we both do....and it's always great to see her. But she's "no longer the woman who raised me", if that makes sense. Well, I take that back. She is, but she's gotten older, as we all have, and now it seems that the rolls have been reversed.....and I've never been good with children. So when she visits these days, it's both joyful yet heartbreaking, too, and it carries with it a lot of responsibility on me, and it's stressful. Last year, she slipped and fell while getting out of the shower in the small bathroom. It scared me to death and I spent the night in the ER with her, having her looked at and making sure she didn't break anything. She's 87...nearly 88 this April, so things like broken hips and falls are always things I worry about with her. I'm really just glad she's coming. She's really in good health for her years, though her mind is what I worry about. She's slipping and getting confused. She has moments when she behaves as a child, and she can't hear all that well, either, so you tell her one thing and she "hears" another. At this point, though, I treasure each and every minute I have with her, because I'm sure we're getting down to the last few Christmases I'll have with this beautiful, strong, loving woman who has often told my sister and me, "I couldn't love either of you more if I'd had you myself." (we're adopted) ;):heartbeat::rrose: So, that's kinda what I'm feeling and thinking today. ~Theo~ :):bouquet: |

I wonder why certain threads piss people off so much... if that is the case why do they keep posting in them... seriously... it just causes un-needed stress and drama on the body...

Mom. Twelve years goes by fast. Miss you.
Christmas. Is it weird that my chiropractor invited me for Christmas dinner? Great Love. How rare it is and how transformative it can be. Friends. Near and far. Old and new. You are in my heart. |
less ''thanking'', more snarking/hating and/or flirting!
"thank you" |

I keep thinking about Harley and Matthew, and I wonder how they are doing. I pray for them every day, that they both find peace. The last text I got said that Matthew was back in hospice care because of a fever and he was dehydrated. That young man is such a fighter!

I want to know why Gabby, my youngest cat, insists on sleeping in the Christmas Tree. I just don't get it. :cat::smileyXmasTree: |
a news story about a four year old boy who left his house, drank a beer, stole Christmas presents from the neighbors including a dress he wore while on this spree.
what are these people doing with MY son? |
a big huge bottle of valium

WELL...
... a very deep subject.
__ Christmas day plans are now cleared up, I mean "in order". Maybe I will get the rolls (best bakery in the area, I don't mess around with this assignment), spend the night and then go HOME once I've hugged everyone hello and wished them a very happy holiday. Then I'm thinking maybe I should just "say" this... what is on my mind, so that the option is left open, with "no worry", or concern then (?) Family gathering "thoughts" stress me out. SOMETIMES, once we get together I am "fine". It's just the "PRE-thought" period that gets to me. LOL!! Sincerely, WILDCAT *OH! And I love the trees so much here, "my friends". I just saw on Ellen, this guy who has a new book out on tree photography whom she just LOVED and showed some of the photo's, etc... (The guy just gave the stat on how many acres per minute are being cut down in the Amazon. HOW is that still possible, I wonder after all of these years?) :watereyes: AND NOW, there are financial gain incentives for being actively involved with saving the RAIN FOREST. For example, a certain tree might [there] house a cure for a disease that no other tree exists... does. Thus, you may "invest" in property there, and also then reap the rewards via "cure", medicinally. (I find that both SAD and "relieving".) Later - :penguin: |
workout, then a great dinner
|
Hopefully getting some pain free sleep tonight
|
I want to get a couple more posts in, print off an email from a prospect at work, schedule the conference room for the next 4 months, eat, watch SYTYCD, check my in house list, talk to my honey before he goes to sleep and get home and be in bed before midnight. That's my goal.

Glad that my baklava came out nicely.
Mind kinda going in circles....christmas brings both stress and love....maybe this year they will balance out!:cuttree::anothersnowman: |
NFL Bengels Receiver, Chris Henry Died This Morning
I just heard this on the news. Late yesterday, he was in the back of a pickup truck with his fiancee, Loleini Tonga, who was driving. Henry somehow fell out of the back of the truck. He and Tonga were having a spat.
Henry's injuries were so severe that he was transported to a local trauma unit called the Carolinas Medical Center where he died this morning at 6:30am. Chris Henry was only 26 yo. They were planning on getting married this year. Currently they were raising 3 small children. In the Nov. 3rd game against the Balto. Ravens, Henry broke his forearm (I believe). So he was on the injured list. How horrible for this to happen this time of year. I feel for his kids. |

Ezee Tiger,
Chris Henry did make bad decisions. And yes, he was very very lucky to have been given a second chance. Not too many folks are given second chances, esp. after having a police record like his. I just feel for his 3 young children. To know that your parent is dead 9 days before Christmas. Heck, my sister died on October 16th and both Thanksgiving and Christmas last year were nothing like they used to be. We tried, but nope. Nothing will ever be the same again. No holidays, birthdays, anniversaries, just nothing. Her entire sense of being is gone. So yes, we create a new reality for her 2 young sons, but even they tell us - "it is not like how Mom would do it". Or "Mom was just the best". One is now 18 yo, and the second is 14 yo. |
chicken broth and bread are my friends today
I am scared to death to eat food again, after what happened last night |
Why is it that when you've made it clear that you don't want to date or be involved people take offense. I'm one to be honest from the get go and still people think I'm kidding. This makes me deeply resent the other person. They think they're going to change my mind or something and it just ain't going to happen.

I really wish She had a day off to Herself for a change. Why is it that people still insist and force themselves on a person, when they know that person rarely has time for themselves? Especially around a busy holiday season and they barely have time to do the things they want or need to do???
People don't think, and when they do, it's usually about themselves. (I know they mean well, but it's just simple common sense and logic). |
My mind is pretty vacant right now. All I have floating around in there are thoughts of the TV dinner in the microwave right now and the tiny hope that I'll feel better soon (and am not getting sick again).
|
They really liked my coffee cake. :chef:

where the source of the gunshots came from early this morning, that shit doesn't happen in my area often as others but people are stupid as hell, I think it's high time this redneck moved out of the city and back to the country
