Hi, ta for your pop in and your encouragement too. It hasn't been easy today. Got a letter stating that I'd be eviction within seven days if I don't call them for an appointment to access the gas applicances fitting, I didn't feel very comfortable to letting anyone in. The last person was here about a year ago.
I didn't read anyone's news or yours too... however I hope you are keeping well and many thanks for keeping in touch. :-)

I'm sending you a flower, so that you can enjoy it! Roses are my favorite. They haven't bloomed yet, but they are looking good. Been wondering how you have been doing. Hope everything is going well for you. Have a nice Easter.

Congratulations! U stick it out & let him tak care of it no matter what.If he tries ignoring it,waitin 4 u,don't touch it.He will probably play that game or act like he cant figure it out,ignore him.U hav 2 hold ur ground.We figure it out,so can he.U need enjoyment time.Do u give children chores on a daily basis? If not,I would.Cleaning etc,takes a lot of time.More hands is a great help.U will hav more free time, 4 u. It should b that way.We did not marry the house,every1 that lives there should take part n takin care of the place they live,not just 1.I say sometimes,"do I have maid stamped on my head"?You live here,you work.Hope everything goes good.U will feel much beter once u get them straight! Crack that whip!!! U can go on strike!! Labor unions you know!! Take Care, Kep N Touch,RJ

Mary,I know just how you feel about taking that few minutes to take care of the thing that we know should be done.But,they depend on that very thing.They will purposely let it sit,knowing u will take it if they ignore it long enough.U just have 2 out- wait him.If he bumbles it,just turn away & let him deal with the consequences.He will appreciate u doing it 25 years once he gets a taste of what it is like.If the lights go out,cable,or anything else,he will get embarrassed.If he fusses just tell him,it's not my job & go about ur business,knowing u won the battle! It is stressfull &u hav 2 start gettin rid of 1 thing at a time that caused u the stress that has gotten u down.U hav enough 2 deal with as it is.I wish u the best on this and keep me up on how it is workin 4 u How r u feelin 2day
Mar 01
You deserve a big bear hug! Hi Mary, Hope you are feeling better. We are having a big snow storm and lights keep going out.Last time it was a week before they came back on.This is the 3rd time I have gotten to this site. Take Care and talk to you soon. RJ

Thanks Your help is greatly appreciated.It looks like it is going to take some work trying to get this young man to think ahead.He is really a good kid and I want to help him, but of course I've got to convince him he needs to prepare for the future.He just wants to get a job and on his own. I'm working on him though. How are you doing? Read your journal, sounds as though you are hanging in there.So you went for the hair thing! I do that. Need to go now, but waiting a while.Want to see about getting a perm.My hair is straight as a stick,actually,straighter. RJ
Feb 22
Thank you for everything! Your info is helpful,gives me some direction as it has been many years since mine were in school and I did not deal with one with a disability.I have to sit him down and have a serious talk about it, to help him to desire to graduate.If I can convince him how badly he needs his diploma, then I will work on the other things.I may need to get some advice from you time to time on some proceedures to help him.Sometimes the schools don't inform you of everything.I will talk to Social Services through.With his own problems and living through what he has, then the breakup, I would not have done so good either.Hopefully the love he gets from my husband and me and my youngest son, he will come around.Take Care and Thanks again for the help. RJ

Thanks,I am hanging in there,old bones don't like cold weather,but then I have always liked the spring the best of all.My youngest son, and my grandson are with us now.My grandson will soon be 18, but has not finished school.He is out right now from missing time, but had I been in his situation,I would not have cared either.We are trying to get him to go back to school for his diploma.He is sight impaired,so I am hoping to get help for him.He needs extra help in spelling and reading.I am going to the school to see if I can get access to some materials that may encourage him to stay in school and graduate.If things work out he will start back next fall and maybe get some summer classes this summer.Take Care, RJ

Congratulations! Time for a celebration... You are doing great on your non smoking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just hang in there!!
Feb 01
I was looking at your note to me. You did say there had been no real disasters with your daughter? RJ
Feb 01
Thanks, I'm still not doin the best.I don't no what the deal is with my bac.I laid down, was going to rest,but I got to hurting so bad, I had to get up. I told my husband if I was still feeling like this, I'm calling my dr monday.It is like I never got the shots,accept the pressure from the meds aggitated it in the beginning.Both of my hips ache.My husband did the floors,dishes and washed clothes.It is really getting on my nerves. I have things I want to do,but,I'm trying to be careful not to cause more problems.You must miss your daughter since she has been gone a while now.Glad their hasn't been any problems.She may suprise you and do well. I haven't been on here much lately.I was sitting up,brushing my dog(maltese with the full long hair to the floor),thought I'd check out MH. take care

Congratulations! Time for a celebration...A LATE HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! I saw the date on one of your journals. You know they say women are like fine wine, the older they get the better they are. Good gracious, I'm going to be going over another hill before too long. I broke the wine bottle. Now I crawl over the hills. I used to walk those hills, but after so many, it was easier to crawl. lol

A nice sunny smiley face 4 you! Glad u r back.Sory bout weather.I had my ocean waves goin,couldn't find u either.Most likely it was cause of the sno man suit! I couldn't c or move.I melted when the tide came n.I looked like the little boy on Christmas Story n his snow suit! It was good u got away & relaxed.We may hav ice & snow here.I hope not.I got my shots Thursday.This time they hav taken longer 2 get 2 point of benefit.I hav spent lot of time n bed.I tried not 2 tak pain med cause afraid I would make it worse.I finally started taking them because of the pain.They say sometimes it takes a week.My son is hanging in there.We started collecting info for the court.Sum way the Wicked Witch got wind she was goin 2 have a fight on her hands & got a message to him she wanted a no fault divorce.

I told him I stopd doin much bendin or putin any stres on my bac.He said that was good more stress is more problms.I go next Thursday morning.It hurts when meds stop 4 the procedur,but well worth it.Told u I needed 2 trade it n 4 20yr old!With a warranty!U hav a good relaxation time.Wish I culd b there,it sure sounds nice.I have a sound machine for slepin,think I'll turn it on the seashore sounds.Then I can shut my eyes and pretend I'm sleepin on the beach!!

You deserve a big bear hug! I c how ur daughter is worryin u.I guess part is motherhood too.The mothering never leaves us no matter how old they r.The "haunting", I relate 2.I hav ben interested 2 no bout how counselor is going 2 help with that.I red 1 of ur journals bout that.There was sum1 else interested n it also. Part of mine I think is insecurities.Sum I hav ovrcome 4 myself,but 4 others,such as my children,I haven't.It is good ur gettin away.I no u said u had ur daugter comitted plenty of times.When I was comitted against my will,they scared me 2 death,from the mean treatment of the officer from the beginning as well as other reasons.She knows what is ahed which probably takes away fear,so it has made it harder 2 deal with her.Hav fun on ur trip.U earned it&sure dserve it Tak care
