I just wanted to say a quick hi to everyone. I am also ready for some peace and quiet. I have had enough quality family time:) I will be headed back to Illinois on the 30th -- plan to take two days. So I will be back for a quiet New Year's Eve. My family can't understand why I do not want to stay through the 1st. "Big Sigh!" Hope you all are doing well. I have not been able to read all of your posts. I do not have the patience to deal with dial up service.

Hey everyone! Happy New Year a few days early but what with the way I have or aherm have not been posting lately this is probably the best day to say it! LOL Sandy is going to kill me if I don't post so here goes......

Had a good Christmas all of the parties/family things were exhausting, the kids had a great time though, yesterday and today I pretty much vegetated although I did take down the tree and all the decs today. Early but if I didn't do it today they'd probably still be there come March!

I hope all of you had a wonderful holiday and didn't overdo it although I know we probably all did and here we are creeping up on a new year and I would be remiss if I did not tell you guys how much you all mean to me and everyone here in our little home away from home!

Here's hoping the new year brings us all.............

A cure for MS! (A girl can dream right?)
Universal legalization of marijuana! (still dreaming I know)
universal healthcare (a system in which we could actually get said healthcare before we die)
At least 5 days a week free of pain,fatigue,spasms,tremors....whatever ails us!
Great sex on a regular basis!
Enlightenment for others who cannot or will not understand us.
Everything we eat suddenly makes us skinny instead of fat (back to the dreaming again!)
At least one good friend to laugh, cry, and yell with! I have mine already ( luv ya San)
The ability to realize that we really are the lucky ones.
The ability to have our voices heard.

I am so glad I got to know each and every one of you over the past few years some longer than others some I keep in touch with more than others but know that you are all always in my thoughts and in my prayers and I am always but an email or a phone call away from all of you...LOL or you may leave a message with my secretary Sandy she gives me daily progress reports,

Aherm speaking of which, Frank, this is your friendly prevert nurse telling you to slow down and take care of yourself ya hear????

And to my Belizean soul sistah luvs ya g/f thanks for all of the wonderful photos of the offspring at ChezKay and always keeping my babies in your thoughts!

And to Sandy my true soul sistah thanks for being there for me the past few years listening to me laugh cry, beach and whine. You and Jim are truly the kind of friends you know were sent from God.

To my newest soul brotha Moi, thanks to you and the mrs for taking this geechee girl in and embracing me, not everyone knows what you two do but I do and there's a special place in heaven for you guys. Love to ya both

And again thanks to Jenn for the window on the wall over my computer screen that allows me to sit back and daydream.

To those who I didn't specifically mention it isn't because you mean any less, but I am seriously falling asleep here! I LOVE U ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi everyone! I am glad to see that you all had a great holiday. I read the posts but will not be able to pass the test on responding to them all. LOL.

I spent this weekend at DBF's doing laundry and helping to get the motorhome ready for our mini vacation over New Years. I realized something while doing this. Sometimes I can do the laundry and clean all in one day and never feel like I over did it. Not so this weekend.

I spend Saturday SLOWLY cleaning the motorhome taking lots of 15 to 30 minute breaks as well as an hour nap. Sunday, my legs were screaming at me. What the heck? I don't get it they've never rebelled like that when I have taken things slowly.

Does anyone notice that some days you do things and your body is just fine with it and other days it is not? I think that is why I have a tough time learning to pace myself and not overdo it.

Going from limited memory here . . .

Renee - I want all of that this year too! LOL That was cute and very sweet.

Kay - Have fun with your visitor. She and I were going to try to meet up before she left but it won't work out as I won't be able to make that trip to her DDs. I hope your wrist feels better by then.

Kelly - So, what did you read? Huh? We want details. LOL It's no wonder you didn't sleep well that night, silly girl.

Barb - Have a safe trip back home. :hug:

Sandy - Hope Jim starts feeling better and the tests come back with specific sensitivities so that he can be on an antibiotic that will get the little buggers out of him.:hug::hug:

Frank - I am not so sure wastewater management and sewer patrol would fit within your limitations. LOL Silly boy. What were you thinking? OK, I know what you were thinking and it actually was very thoughtful of you to do that for all of your neighbors. Maybe next time you can get them to help out a bit.:hug:

Well wishes for all that I missed. I am thinking of you as well.:grouphug:

YES!!! I never know when my body is going to rebel against me.....that's why it's so hard to know when "enough is enough"! I guess I should learn to do about 1/2 of what I think I can get away with...then I should be OK. :rolleyes:

And it wasn't what I read....it was the pics I came across!!! Let's just say they weren't topics for dinner conversation! :eek:

hello all howdy preevert girl

sorry I appreciate yall worries, but I got MS and not doing anything will not make my MS any better so I might as well do stuff, while I still can, I rested the past few days as much as I could, considering all the holidays carpadm

speaking of which where is the pixie dust girl she gonna swing her tail feathers in here and say howdy?????
