    I am trying to word this gently, & we both know that being gentle is not always a strong suit of mine

     

    Just rip her a new one, Amanda.

    Tina, if you'd quit hanging out with Deb and Amanda you're mind might not be in the gutter all the time.  Just saying...  Now where did I put that feathered boa?  Seriously, I agree with Amanda but I usually do because if I don't, she hunts me down and hits me with the 2 x 4 or sends Bevo to perfume my house with his famous gas bombs.

    Charles called to say our power was out from a storm that passed thru this morning.  This was around 8am.  He called back at 9am and said he couldn't believe the power was still out three hours later.  huh? Told him it had only been an hour.  He said he must have fallen asleep and somehow looked at the clock wrong when he woke up.  lol  

    I made my friend and coworker mad this morning.  Kind of on purpose to get him moving on some estimates that he's been dragging his feet on.  He'll thank me someday. lol

    Another friend's lab puppies are soon to go to their new homes.  One is flying to Canada today but she will ride in the cabin with the owners who flew down to pick her up.  They spent the night in a hotel last night and my friend offered to keep the pup until this morning so they didn't have to deal with the first night with pup in a hotel.  The new owners said they couldn't stand not having here with them last night after seeing her.  :)

    Claritin works really well for me for allergies too. I can't imagine taking benadryl and functioning. I do use it at night to sleep but even then, I break a 25mg caplet in half.

    Speaking of sleep, I went to bed at 9 last night and could barely get up at 6:30. Not sure if that was residual tiredness from the ER night or what. After reading about the possibility of it being the gallbladder, I'm going to do a little reading up on that. I still have a general feeling of crampiness but nothing horrible. I was driving in this morning thinking "okay body, if there's a problem, you're going to have to shout it out to me" and as soon as I thought that, I realized what that might mean and did a mental take-back - lol.

    Glenda - I was under the impression that your DH pretty much had the job in the bag. I'm sorry it's still uncertain and he's feeling so down about it. There's nothing about this that is easy for either of you. (((HUGS)))

    Tina - I agree with Amanda that most of us have probably thought about sex with the ex or exes :) I also think that it might be time to open yourself up to new possibilities and trust that you'll handle things just fine.

    Well, since there's no one here to get my work done for me, I'd better get to gettin.

    Yuck certainly not me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I am beginning to worry about you ladies, lol!

    Tina, dont think so much :) just relax and let life begin!

     

    Glenda, still have those "take me away" vibes coming your way!  {{Hugs}}  I am also sending you my "pump the male ego vibes"!

    Cathy my daughter had a terrible time with stones til finally they did the gallbladder surgery, she said it was like day and night immediately when she got out of recovery.  She didnt realize just how bad she had been feeling for a while til she didnt feel bad anymore. Does that make sense?lol!

    Jackie, Ron does that all the time, ha! Last night I got home 5:15 and he was napping.  The boys were inside and barking like crazy (yeah they bark when it's me but not when it's a stranger) anyway, I fed them and had forgotten to vote so I jumped back in the van went to vote, visited with some neighbors, came home, called my Mom and Dad then at 7:15 I hear Ron calling for me.  I come in the back door and he says "Mommy's home boys!" Confused  Duh Dad....  He said he couldnt figure out why they didnt get excited like usual!  It was because they knew I had been home 2 hours already, lol!

    As I said, very mixed signals.  They are VERY interested in talking to me once we get up there.  Made a point of showing him the local campground with secluded sites, talked about future growth, etc, etc, etc.  He voiced and produced a commercial for them that they loved, did his hour on the air, and typical of him, feels like he blew it there.  Todd could NOT screw up an air shift if he tried.  He is VERY good even on his bad days.  But, convince him of that at this juncture.

    I need to remind him that this has happened before.  Potential employers that he flat didn't think he had the job, and then BAM, he had it.  There are a lot of paralels to the gig in San Luis Obispo, CA.  My gut still tells me we are going.

    All I can do at this point is hang on to "if it's meant to be it will be, just not on the timetable we had hoped for".  Shoot, whats another week or two here??

    Just please keep stuff crossed that this is it, or if not, something great comes along FAST.  It's major work keeping his chin up!

    Right now it's making complete sense. I was just thinking to myself that I remember having cramps like this pre-hysterectomy but not since and I don't care for it. They told me not to take motrin in case I needed surgery but that's the only thing that really works for me. Oh well, I should probably give the dr. a call eventually.

     Love the summary Deb :)

    Tina, I try to never think about sex w/ the STBX mostly b/c I can't stand anything about him, that included.  But, since as you said, things are scarce in that department, it makes sense.  Don't let it weird you out.  You're human and you liked it.  No big deal.  :)

    Dusty is back up to a nice, normal, healthy weight.  As a matter of fact, we're cutting back her food a bit now so she doesn't get porky :D  And Blaze's tummy issues seem to have cleared up too.  So for now, all seems right w/ the world for the dogs in our house...well except that they are due for a bath, they all have a nice 'doggy' odor....

    Got to take the Matrix down to the dealership tonight.  When we got it we noticed several scratches on the doors.  We were told to bring it in and they'd buff them out or repaint them if they don't buff out.  I'm skeptical, but we'll see.

    Again, just me running past -- I had to go back to the dr. this morning to get *more* antibiotics for the cellulitis (that isn't quite gone yet) -- and work is just SO high-speed right now I just can't being to keep up.

    tina -- everbuddy's gotta be "good" at something but sometimes that's ALL they're good for and really soon 'good' becomes more work than it's worth.  I thot after I got the ex out of the house that I'd NEVER get married again because all men were just too much work -- and then my fairy godmother dropped me into David's email.  I had more restrictions about "sex" and everything else than you can imagine  -- all of mine were hangovers from my ex (just in the opposite way cos it was SO awful to be the non-recipient and find out he was servicing half of the rest of the world??)

    It will all work itself out.  Just enjoy and try not to trip over your own feet.  You'll take better care of yourself than you think you will!

    Beyond that, it's Wednesday and I'm sure I just felt the jolt as we moved over the "hump" in HumpDay

    I like Tina. I'd never "rip her a new one." I save that for those who I don't like.

    Yuck certainly not me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I'm fairly certain that, with Cathy's statement, & Ginger's "yuck" & denial, you've already got the 3 people that I predicted.....

    Glenda, it's going to happen. I just know it.

    I took Bev & Cher for a hike, & ended up having an embarrassing moment. My favorite hiking trail is very secluded, & rarely used. Literally, I stumbled upon it a few years back, because I was on the way to another trail, & I suddenly needed to pee. I pulled over into this tiny driveway, & ended up finding this trail. We've been hiking it at least once a week for the past two years, & I have yet to see anyone else on the trail.

    It was threatening rain, so the humidity was hoovering around 98%. After a short, 3 mile hike/jog, I was dripping with sweat. I could have wrung out my shirt or shorts because I was sweating so badly. When we got back to the jeep, I decided to change clothes so that I didn't get sweat all over the seat. (I always have an extra set of "play" clothes in the jeep.)

    I loaded the dogs, & was changing next to the jeep. I was stripped down to my pink, zebra print spankies when another car pulled into the tiny parking area. The little old man in the car was probably in his late 60's to early 70's, & by the look on his face, I'm guessing that he hadn't seen a nearly naked woman in quite a while. I'm not sure which one of us was more freaked out. I was grabbing for clothes like a madwoman, saying "cook cook, cook, cook, cook" (it might have been another word, but cook gets the point accross), & after looking for a few seconds, he became embarrassed, turned the car around & left.

    After I got my clothes back on, I called DH to tell him what had happened. He claimed that I scared the guy off, & told me that it I should be thankful that he (DH) doesn't scare easily.

    It's unusually overcast and cool here today for June.  Not cold, but if I were to take off my shorts and put my jeans on, I wouldn't be too hot.  Read that anyway you like. Wink The resurrection of the "warm fuzzy" thread from a couple of years back made me realize how many posters we've lost in the last two years.  I miss them.

    Now, see, Amanda, if that had happened to me, the guy would have stayed and asked me on a date.  Had he been under 60, he'd have left.  I think I've mentioned I'm very popular with the geezers, much to my chagrin.
