Hi all,

I had a good day yesterday, day after my infusion. Today I was tired. Rocky (our cuddle-bug cat, was howling at 6am to bring up a hairball and it disturbed my sleep. Work was only mildly stressful today and I'm tired tonight. I hope to sleep late tomorrow and I need to exercise. I'm vegging too often lately.

I'm going to try to help DH with the mowing tomorrow, I want to do the trim work with the push mower. If I do, I'll need to wear my cooling vest. Wish me luck with that.

So, I need to sleep, exercise and do a few chores this weekend, and that's about it. What an exciting life I lead.

Renee called me today. They made it back to Arkansas yesterday. She was able to get in to see her lawyer face to face today. Her husband apparently established Arkansas residence a while ago. He also had a list of all their household possessions sent to her lawyer with marks next to what he wanted. This guy had been planning this for awhile. The lawyer is on it and will do what it takes to make sure Renee isn't done wrong.

I didn't get a chance to call her back tonight because I was caught up in stuff here at home. I will call her tomorrow. Monday is the divorce hearing.

Please keep her in your prayers.

hey all ..

hope everyone has a good and productive weekend ...

plan to continue packing ... brought another load of goodies to the thrift shop yesterday before the doctor appt.

after the appt, I stopped to pick up some groceries - and the power went out at 5pm!! I only was getting 3 things ... of course, everything is electronic, so the cash was locked! I had enough $$ to help someone break down a $5 for them to have exact change, and I had enough left for my things $4.55 ...

and I saw a big black bear just off the highway, I stopped the car right in front of him - he was only 10-12 feet away from me! sorry - didn't have my camera with me ... the funny part, he was actually crossing at the crosswalk that the county had put in for ATVs!!

Weekends are fun around here and relaxing as I don't like shopping at the weekend, town is too busy. Grandkids go home at two and I'll chill out on computer and then fix myself some dinner.

Mornin' everyone! It's going to be a scorcher here today - supposed to be in the upper 90's.

Tricia, I know what you're thinking......it's 100+ where you are!! But yours is a dry heat...

I've got to go to the grocery store today and I am dreading it. The heat will wilt me and make me weak and dizzy. The total $$ I will spend will make me cry!!

I'm going to ask my son to drive me to the store and then come back and get me so I won't have to be out in the hot humidity. We only live 1/2 mile from the Publix so he can either come back home or follow me around the store.

Other than that I will be inside where it's cool. I've started cleaning out some dresser drawers and closets. Just tackling one or two drawers a day and shredding anything I don't need that has personal info on it. It gives me something to do and is productive in the long run.

I've already started on one of the three books I got so I will probably do alot of reading this weekend, too.

Ya'll have a great weekend!

Finishing up laundry today. I am sitting here having my coffee waiting for the freezer repair man to bring the new freezer thingy. It better work!

Kitty, do what I do girl. Make a list and send your son to do the shopping. Nik is really good at it and saves me money. I taught him well. lol

That's because they don't want to deal with choosing the exact product for the coupon and then organize them for the cashier. lmao

I'm just sitting here alone watching "Rain Man" & on the computer. My kids are at work. (I don't know what to defrost for dinner. I don't know how many will be here). My dh is outa town but it's only been 5 days, he comes home for the weekend on June 20. I filled out an application for a job, I just need to get it back to them. Some may know me & might know I have epilepsy, and I can't drive. But at least I have air conditioning, it's supposed to be 93* or so today. Have a good day you guys.

Bird and I were just talking about that last night. She was telling me it was 106 there!!! 106 with humidity is not like 106 without. I would take the 106 without any day. We also have a larger temp drop in the evenings. Our mornings and late evenings are in the upper 60's (I think). It is cool enough to still do things outside in the a.m.

I understand the weakness thing too. This morning I went to make coffee and didn't have any. So I decided I'd try walking to the store which is about 1 mile round trip. In the shade there was a nice breeze but when I got to the sunny part I started heating up and getting weak so I turned around and took the car. The only shade I have is from the buildings. Once I am out of the complex it is all sun.

I did that with DDs once. DD18 was in a grumpy mood and the 2 girls ended up arguing at the store. I made a list of what we needed but DD16 had a better idea of things that I left off the list. DD18, being grumpy, yelled at DD16 and said that she couldn't get it because it wasn't on the list. For the 1st time ever DD18 went only by the list. Needless to say, I had to go back out and get the things I had forgotten to put on the list. LOL

I sent DD16 to the store the other day with a list (I was in the middle of typing a report and she was bored). Now that she has her license she can go do it without waiting on me. She loved it. She was thrilled that she saved $50. She asked if she can do the shopping from now on. This girl gets a kick out of saving money.

I didn't go to DBF's last evening. MS fatigue creeped up on me and I was zonked by 6:00 or so. I was in bed by 9!

I hope you all have a great day!
