Morning all. Getting ready to get going for the bro to come over.

Momma, my new years resolution is to not do so much, not worry about everyone anymore and learn to say no more often. I am so wired right now and my tummy is hurting. I'm thinking I am going to have to pop a zanax to stop tripping over everything. I just need a few weeks to gather myself back up after the holidays. Plus I get a little misty closer to the new year wondering about the next year and what will be in store for us, etc. I don't mean to push anyone away and sometimes feel guilty but I have to do this to get my sanity back. Ha! Do I still have that? lol

Anyway, not going to vent about it here. I am just going to take care of me for awhile and let things be. Those who are closest to me will understand. Those who don't, well, I just don't know. I know you all get it and that's why I love this place. Thanks for your story. I am not alone in my thinking and that makes me feel better.

Anyway, Jim is playing Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader. He wants to be on that show and we're going to sign him up after the 1st.

Sandy you try to take it easy, wish I had more than a cyber hug, dont fret none today its your bro he knows where everything is and if not direct him there are the beers there is a seat sit drink spend time with Jim and let me rest

Ha! My niece will be here too so that means I have to keep her company. She's a pre-teen God help me. lol

Hi ho everyone. Sounds like everyone is surviving and so am I. We had a 3.4 earthquake yesterday during the night. No damage but it did freak me out a bit. Not my first earthquake but they are kinda rare here. Tomorrow the kids and I go to my parent's house for the day. The kids would rather not. Someday they will wish they had grandparents living they could do things with.

howdy - doodies .... hope you are getting ready for a fun celebration in 3 days ... nope, me neither!! LOL ... watch the ball drop and crash out myself - on Thursday - heading to a parade in the town that I'm considering relocating to ...

been downsizing so much that I have space and room that I don't have 'stuff' in the way!!

I have a carload going today over to Goodwill ...

hugs to everyone - I'm still in downsizing mode ... and excited about working on finishing some projects ... and designing a scooter back-rest cover ... something that has been on the back-burner for awhile ...

be good ... stay off the ice ... and wear your steel toed (Herman Munster shoes) when you go out today for those of you with some REALLY breezy weather!!

Kay - I love your duck on top o' the world!!

Just sent Nik off to drop off a specimen for Jim. Please pray he's sensitive to an antibiotic so he doesn't have to go in the hospital.

Im on it Sandy!!!!

praying for Jim... hoping it's minor, and not requiring any hospital visits.



my elbows have been collapsing lately when I climb into bed, so I've been using another entry method, leaning forward with my arms "locked"

today, that gained me a SPRAINED wrist (wah wah wah!), and zilched my hopes for a nappy. (too busy getting ice on it, and wrapping it up, and whining)

oh, do you know how hard it is to operate a mouse while wearing an ace bandage? and it's hard to TYPE too !!

can ya hear me singin' Vonny-baybee ??

I'm on top of the world lookin' down on creation
And the only explanation I can find
Is the love that I've found ever since you've been around
Your love's put me at the top of the world

lol, sometimes I think my brain's still stuck back in the 70s.
