morning back atcha, Jenn!!

been up since 7 .. went to sleep (I think about 3) .. checked into classes - so far, so good with posting there ...

finished a quilt top for the July wedding .. and a friend asked me to insert some elastic in sleeves for her .. have to get some paperwork out the door today ..

here's a weird dream I had ...

was having pizza with Jethro (Mark Harmon) and his dad Frank at a pizza hut place ... when we left, I was backing up and smashed thru the wall at the pizza place ... with my present car! too funny .. .pretty weird ...

Woke up to a cool morning, good day to open the windows and let fresh air in.

The day we came back from NY, it had been in the 60's and upon arrival in PHX, it was 110 degrees. ugh.

That was Monday and the heat was on until today. A cold front has moved in and it will be only in the 80's today, rain sweet rain in the forecast.

Cool with the promise of rain.

This body may not work very well but this morning is beautiful.

Fin - Taking baby steps is a good idea. It is so easy to overdo it, well, at least for me. Some days I can go the speed of light and be fine. Then there are days when I am slower than a turtle. LOL. Most days I am somewhere in between and pace myself throughout the day. Water aerobics and yoga are great for us MSers. I am glad you found somethings to do so that you don't get hermititis.

Vonn - At 1st I didn't see the "dream" part of your post. LOL. That is a weird dream but with Mark Harmon in it, that would be a nice dream.

Hey everyone else! Hope you all have a good day.

Tricia ...

I KNOW

.. Mark Harmon is a better hotty NOW than he was when he was younger!!

I needed THAT dream!! LOL

Isn't it awesome!!!! I am going to sit on my patio in a bit and get my 15 min of vitamin D. When I saw the weather on the news last night I was thrilled. This 100+ carp was killing me. I slowed down so much, even in the a/c.

Yes, they're predicting a hot, hot one this summer.

BTW - Aarcyn, sent you a PM.

Hey all. I spoke with Renee last night. OK, apparently there may be a glitch in this so called divorce. Renee's husband entered the military in Texas so filing in Arkansas may not be legal since they were also married in Texas. Arkansas is tough on allowing divorces from those not legal residents there. So, hopefully they can get a continuance and or have it thrown out. He'll then have to travel to Texas or another state to file. Keep your fingers crossed because this would allow Renee to stay on her insurance a little longer and force him to face her and stand up.

MY UPDATE: I am going to speak with my mother. She started tripping out about flying here in early July. My oldest brother has stepped up and is going to pay for her ticket. She doesn't want to transfer planes for fear of one missing her flight, and two, getting upset and having another seizure. OK, the last part probably wouldn't happen since she's on Dilantin. Anyway, I called the airline and they will escort her everywhere and she said she doesn't trust them. Oy!

Sandy - First, I am glad your brother stepped up. That is a step in the right direction. I feel so much for your mom as she must be so frustrated and somewhat confused. Is it possible that a family member meet her at where she needs to change planes? Is there a direct flight?

Renee - I am sorry about all of this. I don't want to say too much as this is a public forum that anyone can read. I don't want to post something that may compromise your divorce proceedings. I'll send you a PM. Still keeping you in my prayers.

No, we don't have family in NC that could be there for her. The cost of a ticket if she changes planes is $142. If she went non stop it's $460. I would fly her out of Southwest but she's having trouble getting someone to drive her at night to Nashville. We'll see today what we can do.

Holy Carp! That is a huge difference. I say this in jest - can you tell her to "shut up and put up." LOL. I know you can't but with a $300 difference it sure makes you think that. I hope you all can work together and resolve some of this.

Good Morning everyone! The sun is out and it looks like a nice day here too. I am meeting a friend for lunch today and then I am going to the store in search of lobster claws; the kind of lobster claws you use to fasten jewelry. I have decided to make some bands for watches as I have given several bracelets to everyone I know. I will probably have to make a trip to Hobby Lobby or Michaels sometime to actually buy the watches (an hour away), but I think I can find the lobster claws at our local Wal Mart. Or I could probably order some online. shipping would be cheaper than gasoline.

Sandy, I do not know if it will help, but you can tell your mom that my mom who is eighty and who cannot hear (98% deaf and wears a cochlear implant that doesn't work too well anymore), flies and changes planes. They just escort her in a wheelchair is it is a large airport and she wants help. The biggest problem is canceled flights, but don't mention that to her. Glad your brother is helping out.

Finn, A friend and I are going to try out water aerobics at the local pool in a few weeks. I use to take water aerobics classes at the university, but the pool is too cold now for me. They keep it that way for the swim teams. I also use to take pilates classes, but there is no way I could do most of theose poses now. If I tried downward facing dog now, I would be on my face.

Vonn -- Mark Harmon; yummmmmmm. I prefer George Clooney
