Wonder thread #237
 

Just starting this to honor BMW's wish for the light to be shut out on the last one:grouphug:
Has antone heard from smae????:confused:

I wonder when Smae will feel well enough to check in with us... I hope she's sleeping soundly.

I wonder how much longer this beautiful weather will last...

I wonder if my neighbors are sick of all the smoke I am causing with all the burning I am doing...:o

I wonder, but need to go check, that smae is posting on fbook but it may be her mother doing it for her....

I wonder if BMW can feel our love..and Goofy, I know you know....:hug:

I wonder if Alffe knows how ambivalent I am about burning leaves. It seems to most people to be the smell of the fall, but my mother suffered so very badly from asthma that we had to shut the house up every fall...plastic over the windows and no ac. No open doors. And most times she ended up in the hospital anyway.
I don't wonder how much people love it and I understand why...I just can't join in. It's like the debate about real or fake trees. No debate for us. We had no choice.
ButI wonder if Alffe knows..the good weather is over after today, I hear...so enjoy. And toast a marshmallow for me. I used to love that when I was a kid. Probably because I got to do it so rarely. LOL.
Wonder why I am melancholy today.

I wonder if Ducky knows that I find no pleasure in burning the leaves...

I wonder that we live on an acre and 1/2..have huge old maple trees, oak and hickory trees, tulip trees and 100 white pine trees that I would have cut down if I could afford it....(dang pine needles!)

I wonder that the county will no longer pick up the leaves (we used to rake them to the road and the machine would come along and suck them up) so last year we bagged them....

I wonder that the landfill will no longer accept the leaves therefore our trashman will not pick up the bags...I mulch as many as I can, I have a compost pile but I also burn them...the township fire dept. came out and "approved" my burning container...I wonder how much longer we can continue living here as I'm not getting any younger...:confused:

I wonder if that's why our neighbors moved.....

I wonder if I can leave Ducky a hug...:hug: now that I've given her way too much information. :D

I wonder if I knew that you had a lot of trees, but all that "this guy won't take it and that guy won't take it" sounds like a huge hassle.
I wonder if I didn't mean to sound judgmental. I wonder that our neighbors are burning leaves today and it always makes me think of my mom. Maybe that is why I am a little sad.
I wonder if Alffe knows how much I appreciate the hugs....it helps.
I wonder if going out to dinner with my foster-sister ( her gift to the Kid) will bring me out of it a bit. LOL.
Oh! I wonder if I can tell you that Kat got the Kid one of those Ninja prep things you see on tv in the middle of the night. Not the big mixer one, but the smaller blender one. He has asked one for two years now, so I guess he was serious.
I wonder if you know how great a milkshake that thing makes, and how good that sounds right now. LOL. :-)
I wonder if I can say Hi, everyone and leave a hug...as I try to resist the shake.
:hug::grouphug::hug::grouphug::hug::grouphug:

I wonder if the neighbors are glad ...it's rainning on my parade and on Notre Dame's game....

I wonder if Ducky knows that she doesn't have a judgemental bone in her body...:hug:

I wonder at the score of the IU/Wisconsin game.....:eek:

I wonder why I can't stop thinking about "shakes" now...I'm too suggestible....:D

I wonder when I looked up how to spell suggestible, the word suicide was right below it...definition: the act of killing oneself purposely..???purposely??? Intentionally....:confused:

I don't really wonder about anything right now... but want to give lots of :hug: to my dear friend BMW. :( <3 Wish I had more to say or do that would make things better, but I am so sorry for your loss.

I want to thank those of who have wondered about me and the surgery. I am in a lot of pain and am having a rough day... but as some of you know, I really don't feel up to talking about things publicly here. I am looking for a new 'home' where I am more comfortable talking, BUT I do think about my friends here very often... and I still check my messages when I can and try to read to see how others are doing. I'm very thankful for the friends I have made here. =)

Actually, I do wonder... I wonder how a doctor can state that having a SCS implant is a dinky thing and there should be no additional pain. Alright... so having bone taken out of me and foreign objects placed inside of me... some incisions and lots of sore muscles and such is NOT normal with surgery? I think not. Surgery is surgery and having bone removed is no picnic. I wonder how some doctors got a degree when they seem to say such silly things that make me wonder if they ever attended medical school. Thankfully, it was just the on call doctor and my doctors are all very caring and understanding, so I am thankful for that.

I'll be around more when I'm feeling better, but again--mostly in private messages. Feel free to contact me that way. :)

:grouphug: to all.

I wonder if I can thank (((Pooh))) for starting this new wonder thread .... and tell you all I was away from the computer enjoying some heart-warming family times...

I wonder how sad I am to hear of your loss (((Marshmallow)))... I, too, had a phone call from my sis to tell me our Mom had passed away in her sleep... it is a rock-your-world experience :hug:

I wonder that so many of us here have lost our moms... and dads ....

I wonder that our leaves are still falling ... and that our city still can afford the cost of picking up leaves is they are in bio-degradable brown bags (which you buy).

And, at the same time, I wonder... if the city weren't picking up leaves, perhaps some hungry children might be fed ...

I wonder if I appreciate hearing the differences in our worlds...

I wonder if I can give Smae a gentle hug as I, too, wonder how a doctor can possibly understand the pain you are feeling! I must say I was happy when after having 2 c-sections, my doctor had to have one, too! :hug: great to hear from you!

I wonder how I'm sorry I missed saying happy b-day to the Kid! I know Mommy Duck :hug: will pass on my best wishes!

I wonder at how long it takes me to catch up on things when I've been busy with loving my Grand-Addy... :D Gosh, you should see the cyclone that hit my living room!

:sing: Addy

I wonder that 2 of my little cyclones just left and are headed back to their northern home.

I wonder that the I even got extra hugs because I don't get to see them very much... that's what the 4yr. old told me as she ran back inside to hug me again.

I wonder that it sure was fun to see them and more fun to play with them...wow have they grown.

I wonder that two great minds think alike... right Alffe??!!??:D

I wonder if anyone has seen the movie The Boy in the Striped Pajama's?

I wonder how BMW is doing? I'm sure as good as she can be... oh how my heart is with her and her family.

I wonder how fast things change... yet stay the same.

:hug:
Abbie

I wonder how much I'm enjoying having our Abbie "back"...:p

I wonder if I have any rubbing alcohol in the house...

I wonder if gin would work as well...I know I have Q tips...:D

I wonder if our grandaughter will get to come for Thanksgiving...

I wonder if I'm going to fix too much food....:wink:

I wonder how happy I am for Addy and the new beginning...:hug:

I wonder what you all are doing for Thanksgiving..???

I wonder if that should be a new thread...or string as Tom would say..:D

I wonder how I forgot to ask if anyone saw Marie Osmond speak about her son's suicide. Such raw pain... sigh...

I wonder at how exciting it was for you to get those extra hugs dear Abbie!

I wonder at the songs that come to my mind when I sing to Grand-Addy ... makes me wonder at how they rise to the surface!

"Have you ever seen a Lassie go this way... and that way..."
"Rain, rain... go away... Adrianna wants to play" - we sing this one a lot on the WETcoast!
"How much is that doggie in the window"... lol... such a silly song!
"I've been working on the railroad".... gosh, how the past creeps in! I love the "fee-fi-fiddly-i-oh" part!

hi ho, out the door I go... to work.

I wonder why i cant post a picture.... it keeps locking up on me :(

I wonder that that made me shake my head. For good grief! ANY surgery is an invasion of your body and of course the surgery itself will cause discomfort. I hope it is doing better each day ((Smae)).

I wonder if I can say here that I'm thinking of BMW Sis with love. I'm so sorry for your loss dear lady.

I wonder that it's nice to see Ducky wondering as well.

I wonder that I can tell when the 'dump' is accepting yard stuff, leaves, etc. It's on my way home and each time there is a bag that has fallen onto the highway and spilled open with leaves. We aren't ever allowed burn days here.

I wonder if you'd like to see granddoody's new preschool picture. He's 5 years old and oh my gosh...I hadn't seen him in a few weeks and he spent the night with me Friday night. My goodness he had gotten taller and thinner! He looks like he's in kindergarten! Well, he could be but the kids are holding him back until next fall.

My love to all. :heartthrob:

For Doody
 

He's just darling - a heartbreaker!

I wonder how grown up he's become! Look at that hair and he's losing his baby "fat"..... sigh, that will be Grand-Addy in a few years... !

I wonder if Barbo has Grand-Barbos?! ;)

I wonder what picture Goofy was going to post...would love to see it...:hug:

I wonder that I remember when Oscar was born...can't believe he's 5...:wink:

I wonder about a lot of things........that I can't "talk" about here...:confused:

I wonder why my biological mother after 21 years (my birthday is Saturday) won't tell me my biological father's name, yet she communicates with him often.

I wonder why I hate my life so much.

I wonder why I always feel alone and I don't sleep nights.

I wonder why I can't get out of here (and by here I mean New England, the weather/season is wreaking havoc on my head and heart)


I wonder why I can't wonder like I want to :(

To Addy
 

Yes I have 2 grandaughters - both in their early 20's. One lives in Chicago and one lives in Phoenix. The one in Phoenix, Stephanie, just got engaged so the possibility of GREAT grandchildren is there - yay! Ellen, in Chicago, is juggling 4 jobs and loving Chicago!

I wonder if I can give Barbo a Gramma to Gramma hug! :hug: ...

I wonder how good it is to see MegVeg and at the same time, wish it wasn't such a sad time of wondering for you :hug:

I wonder how my new laptop with Norton Antivirus allowed my email program to send out spam... and I hope if any of you received it, you'll accept my sincere apology... I'm running a fresh virus scan right now.

I wonder about all those who are struggling right now... :grouphug:

To Addy
 

Is spam advertising teases from various companies? If so. how do you get rid of them?

I wonder if I can tell Addy... it probably had nothing to do with you Norton Antivirus... it was probably some random program that chose your email address.. and snagged your email password with a keylogger program... therefore it hijacked your email and sent out junk to everyone on your email list.

I suggest running a FULL virus scan and changing your passwords.

I wonder if I can say this just happened to my sister and myself.... My sister's (yahoo account) sent out hundreds of emails while mine (msn account) only sent failure to deliver messages back to me.

I wonder if I can leave a few :hug: and exit stage right......>>>>
Abbie

I wonder if I figured this out finally, thanks Abbie! It happened through my Hotmail account and so I raised the "security" as you suggested - thanks!

Barbo - yes, those emails are considered spam and I'm not sure how to stop them.... I wonder if anyone else has a suggestion....

I wonder that I'll let this thread go down to the bottom of the page and perhaps on to page 4... before I put on my Deputy Sheriff hat...

I wonder how our Marshmallow friend is... I'm sure overwhelmed and sad is putting it mildly... sigh....

I wonder how Ducky is doing with her quit smoking challenge...

I wonder when the utility people will EVER finish working on the poles along our road...:mad:

I wonder how our David is and if he knows that he's in our thoughts...:hug:

I wonder how Tom is and that he too is missed....:hug:

I wonder if Ducky is feeling any better...same wonder about Doody..:grouphug:

I wonder how nice it was to have lunch with Barb yesterday..been a while..:hug:

I wonder how much I'm looking forward to seeing our girls home for Thanksgiving..wish it could be all three of them...

I wonder how Addys scrapbooking is coming along....:wink:

I wonder how wren is....:winky: and BMW :hug: and Goofy..:hug:

Too nurmerous to name everyone but know that you are loved...:circlelove:

I wonder at how "right" it feels to have gone back to my Chorus last night... its been over 2 years of not singing on stage for me....

I wonder that I'll be singing baritone (in barbershop, that's the part that makes harmony around the melody)... first song to re-learn is "Sweet Georgia Brown" and the next is "How Deep is the Ocean" ... :sing:

I wonder if it will be busy at the beach front today...

I wonder about Tom and David, too...

Addy i wonder if my spiritual voice might join you in spirit, as my physical voice is not currently fit. Thank you for singing to the world around you. :)

I wondered where you've been waves :hug: ... I've missed yacking with you here... I hope all is well as can be in your world?

I wonder where MegVeg got to... :hug:

I wonder that I heard from our marshmallow friend... she's spending lots of time with family right now and says she won't be here much, if at all, for a while... :Heart:

I wonder that many of us are coming up to a real stressful time of year...

I wonder if any of us are doing all we can to take care of ourselves ... get to see our doctors and talk about our aches and sorrows...

I wonder at how easy it is to talk the talk... its the walking that's tough ...:(

I wonder that I came here to back track and see which sister here was the one who bought a piece of the moon.

wonder that I saw Alffemom had bumped a post...
:hug:
Thanks Mom

hugs to the room readers and lurkers
PEACE
BMW

I wonder that I was just outside staring at the beautiful moon and the bright "star"... I think it is actually a planet but I'm not sure.

I wonder about bullies... I am so frustrated right now my head is spinning and my stomach is in knots!

I wonder that out of such a large family... there is only going to be 4 of us here for Thanksgiving... 3 of us live here...and the other 1 will be staying here that week because her mom is having surgery.

I wonder that I will try my best to make it the best Turkey day ever!! Play games, eat, watch movies, watch the parade's, eat, etc....

I wonder if anyone has ever rented movies from the Red Box or the BlockBuster Blue Box????

I wonder if anyone has a favorite Thanksgiving dish that they just have to have on Turkey Day???

I wonder that mine is CRANBERRIES!!!!! I was born in October and was eating them my first Thanksgiving!!! I love them no matter how they are fixed... I even eat the raw... :D

I wonder if I should keep on rambling... or wander away...
I think I will wander away for now...
:hug: to all!!!
Abbie

I wonder if Barbo will share her excellent cranberry relish with Abbie...she's bringing it to my house on Thanksgiving...:D

I wonder that BMW reminded me to get into the hot tub tonight to gaze at the full moon....:hug:

I wonder if Addy knows that I listened on fb to the barbershop chorus singing Fame and I love it! So glad you are with them again..

I wonder if Steve ever listened to NPR...National Public Radio as they have educational programs and fair and balanced news. I recently heard a program, and you can still listen to it, about anxiety..http://thedianerehmshow.org/shows/20...iety-disorders

I wonder if Goofy decided not to share about her son's bullying...

I wonder if her son will be surprised that he doesn't have to "share" this year...:D

I wonder how nice it was to see waves again....:hug:

For Abbie
 

Use one package of raw cranberries, one package of dried apricots and one lemon. Grind this all up in a grinder (the kind you clamp on a kitchen table). Add one cup of sugar and mix well. This can be frozen and the rest used for Christmas. Enjoy! I have been making this for years!

For Abbie
 

There is a mistake in the recipe. Add TWO cups of sugar, not one.

I wonder that I am definitely going to use Barbo's recipe this year for Thanksgiving!!! THANK YOU BARBO!!!!!!!

I wonder if I can play thread cop for my nearly twin sister BMW (her Bday is a couple of days after mine)

LIGHTS OUT!!!!

SOMEONE PLEASE START ANOTHER THREAD
