It's nice to know there are people with the same nagging agravating problems. I don't feel so all alone. I appreciate each and everyone of my space friends for allowing me to come to their little part of their lives. So to everyone here A big heatfelt HAPPY VALENTINES DAY !!!!Red heart

It's colder than a witches ......out. And not going to get any warmer. I had a good weekend though got to spend some  Q time with my daughter and granddaughters. That's the most important thing. A friend of mine had a small toe accident but he's recovering nicely. Have a great Mon. everybody.

    Told ya

     Uh huh, told ya. We got the nastiest weather last night. Tornadoes popping out of nowhere. While at work the tornado sirens went off here twice. We were all instructed to go to our tornado shelter area. Please, you know what it is like sitting in the men's bathroom for thirty minutes is like with over full capacity! I'd rather take my chances with the tornado. It surely could'nt smell as bad. Anyway now it's 44 out and getting colder. What can I say, that's AR. They say if you do'nt like the weather stick around it will change so many times you're bound to like one of them.  Later!

    I can't believe it!

     I can't believe it's 66 out at 12:42am. Man, I'm sleeping with my window open. It was so hot at work normally I have to wear thermals, long sleeve T-shirt, sweat-shirt and a hoodie, plus a paint suit it gets so cold in the EV room where we paint. Powder paint has to be kept cold. Anyway, I couldn't believe here in Feb. it's this warm. We are in for some nasty weather. For those of you who don't know, this part of AR is known as tornado alley. Because the weather fronts fight for possesion of this area. That sounds wild doesn't it? Hope everyone had a great superbowl day, and have a great day tomorrow. Hugs to everyone!   Big Hug

    Another day shot, Laurel

     Boy, I wish this weather would decide what it wants to do. Day before yesterday beautiful 64 degrees, today 32, rain-snow-sleet mix. I was riding with my daughter this morning to do some banking, as we were sitting at the red light I caustioned her about coming up on cars so close due to the snow and freezing rain. Just as our car came to a complete stop, BAM! rearended. My head still hurts. Two of my youngest grandchildren were buckled in the back and began to cry. They weren't hurt just scared. I have already had one car totaled this month I didn't need to be involved in another. Luckily noone was injured and no damage done to either vehicle. We returned safely home and my daughter made it to her house just fine. This mess is going to freeze tonight and I will worry about my daughters going to work. They think I'm too much of a worrier and they are old enough to take care of themselves. But it's different when their children are out in this mess. See, what goes around, comes around. I am a big believer in that.

    Yea, 61 degrees out and furnace fixed!

     Well wouldn't you know it, it is 61 degrees out and my furnace finally got fixed after dragging space heaters around for 3 days when it was anywhere from 32 to 14 degrees outside. The little repairman left with the furnace setting on 80. I couldn't breath! Bless his heart he might have been cold. I just can't wait to see what happens to the air conditioning this summer!
    I've been visiting some spaces and really enjoyed the formats and chatter. This is my first time at this and have become quite addicted. If anyone has any ideas on Light bulbspiffing mine up, please feel free to leave a comment. See ya'l.

    Man it's cold

     It is so cold out the wind chill is like 9 degrees and my furnace went out. The landlord won't be able to fix it until tomorrow. Thank goodness for space heaters.

    Good Friend

     I recieved a special gift from my good friend today. It was a special gift a sweet gesture of something personal we share. I just hope I can return the gesture equally. It is still cold and will be colder tonight. I dread going to work, it will be so cold in there tonight. Oh well a couple more weeks and this weather will change.

    New Friend

      I have made a new friend. His name is Dan. He lost his wife to cancer and is very lonely. We talk about everything every day. He was very concerned when I told him about my daughter wrecking my car Sat. night. She lost control trying to keep from hitting a dog. The car went airborne and flipped 3 times before landing in a ditch. My granddaughter was whith her. My daughter suffered a mild concusion from a goose egg bump on her forehead and sprained her whole left side and back. I'm just glad they were both allright. I can always replace the car. Something is telling me to watch out for something else to happen. Last week my Cheeto, ferrett, went to ferrett heaven. Then the car, what next? Stay tuned. Believe me something will happen.

    New computer

    I just got this new computer. My laptop was for the birds. I really like this one. It has a nineteen inch monitor. Yes! I can see it without my glasses. I'm so excited!

    What a day

     Well I had my first bogus invite from this space. It pays to be careful. I had a death in the family today also. My little Cheeto has gone to Ferrett Heaven. She was getting old and suffered with having seizures. Her poor little body just couldn't handle it anymore. I'll close by having a moment of silence for her.

    Undecided

     I am undecided about ex. I keep remembering the bad things in our marriage. I feel like a traitor to my kids. They think it's great, but they were too young to remember the things that happened to make the marriage fall apart. Oh well, I guess I will play it by ear.

    New Year 2008

    Starting 2008

     It has been confirmed. Start again. I've decided to start seeing my exhusband again after 34 years. He called on the 27th and asked if I remembered what happened ? How could I forget. It was the first time I had ever been married and I was a 17 year old child. I didn't have a clue to what I was getting into. Neither did he. Right off the bat I became pregnant. Two years later pregnant again. It was more than we both were ready to handle. He married to get away from home as did I. We thought we could make it but after 5 years neither one of us wanted to be tied down. As a wise man once told me,"Forgive, forget, get on with it."

    The New Year Approaches

    • As the New Year Approaches we need to relfect and think about what changes we need to make to better ourselves for tomorrow. I thought I needed to get more exercise and do more. But the more I thought about it the more I realized that I : walk ugly dog around the block 3 times a day (eigth of a mile)
    •                                                                                                          walk from car to workstation in plant 2 times a day (eigth of a mile)
    •                                                                                                          walk from wrkstation to bathroom and breakroom 5 times a day (eigth of a mile)
    •                                                                                                          climb stairs at work and home unlimited times 24/7
    •                                                                                                          stretches and deep-knee bends while painting 8 to 10 hrs day, 5 to 6 days a wk.
     I don't need exercise I need REST!
