Sarah - I was typing my post while you did yours. Sorry. You poor thing. I do hope you start feeling better soon. Laughter is good medicine but I also know that some times this carp causes too much pain making laughter hard (like the MS hug). You DH sounds so wonderful and loving. You are very blessed.

My mom's income based apartment didn't have a lease either so I was curious if the one your going to does.

If I am imposing by asking please accept my apology.
Sandy, my dear - no apologies necessary ... I just have this antsy feeling that I want to get OUT and DO something, I like my time alone - and now a much much better place to live! oh ... about a lease?? I would suppose so .. but then she said something that when the SSDI starts - then they'll redo the amount ..

He was one of only two men I ever truly loved - I'm married to the other one!

I'm shocked, mad, horrified, but most of all so sad. He was a dear, sweet person and didn't deserve to be shot and left to die.

We stayed friends, but fell out of touch after college. I always thought I would see him again someday. I guess I have to wait a lot longer than I thought I would to see him....

So sorry Holly. Nobody deserves to die like that. I lost a family member to murder almost one year ago. ...Sue

sorry sarah you feel like this, hopefully it shall pass quickly


Vonn Vonnn Vonn, congrats on the apt. i must concere with sandy why work. you will lose ssi and in time probably become exhausted from working and possible lose that job. SSI allows a small amount of cash to be earned while receiving ssi. why not a small part time one or two days a week in town nearby, and save money on gas. now if the job thingy is cause you are going stir crazy, why not volunteer time at local library or local hospital this way you dont mess up ssi and you get out and are able to do something productive in the community, please do not be offended by the forwarness of this, I just hate to see ya get behind the 8 ball again.

Hope you feel better soon Renee. I just hate that your hurting so bad and wish i could do something.

Von, thanks!

Today we are just hanging by the house. Nothing much to do with the heat, although today is cooler than past days. It's the humidity. Did you guys hear those storms last night? WOW! I could have sworn the rain was coming down in my attic it was so loud!

Have a great weekend everyone!

Oh oh, Frank and Trish. You have to buy Wii Internet. I was on here last night and it was so very cool. Everything is tv screen size. It was only 500 points to buy and it connects to your internet if you have a ethernet or wireless. We were having a blast looking at it and making folders for our favs. lol

NaeNae - 90 degrees and 100% humidity would do me in as well. I do hope that you start feeling better soon. I'd say come here and dry out but we've been in the upper 80's and humid as well (67% yesterday - we are in our monsoon season so it is a bit more humid right now). BTW - Upper 80's is NOT normal for us at this time of year - upper 90's and low 100's is the norm.

~~~~

Nothing much happening here today. I need to rest up as we are having a family get together this afternoon (swimming and BBQ at my parents). I need the energy to play with my little nephews and nieces. They are such an active crew. LOL

Hope you all have a great and relaxing Saturday.

Do you need the Wii console to do this? I don't have that yet but am saving up for it. I give DD16 $20 each month to put away for the Wii console. It may take us a year to get it but . . .lol. If I get some of these paintings done and sold, maybe we can get it sooner. I'm hoping.

Oh, duh? I've been working with my niece who will graduate with her marketing degree in December. She is helping me start a small business for my artwork. Yahoo! She has been a huge help.

Hi everyone! Looks like we're in for a couple of storms today. Just saw the radar and a wall of rain is heading our way.

Hubby made it home in one piece. Glad the nutty professor is home.

Plan on running around a little later on, with him driving of course - LOL. Then we're going to hope the race isn't rained out tonight so we can watch it.

Hope everyone has a good day.

~~~~~~~~

Renee and Sarah, I hope you both feel better soon.

TK, That is so cool about your artwork and making it a business. Nothing like working at something you enjoy so much.

Had storms last night and this morning. More severe ones heading this way this afternoon and evening. The sun keeps coming in and out and it is really humid. Then it gets dark. Guess I am staying home today and reading. I just realized that classes start in 6 weeks. I need to start preparing my courses. I have been thinking about them.

Renee -- Hope you are feeling better soon. This humidity is a real pain in the bootie (my niece's word)

Tricia -- That is cool that your niece is helping you to market your artwork.

Hi to everyone else and I hope your are having a good Saturday.
