I just wish it would go away.

and I'm still sick so it makes everything worse.

TuscanGirl · 05-09-2008, 05:13 PM

Oh Lisa!!

You couldn't be second string - ever!

stews · 05-09-2008, 05:49 PM

to ALL that need them.

figured out what I'm going to wear tonight. I found a brown skirt and I'll wear a sleavless V neck blouse thing I have that has brown, and different shades of pink in it.

it's not real dressy, but I originally put on my linen crop pants and was afraid I'd be a little underdressed. I won't be as comfortable in this but I think I'll fit in ok. dress is supposed to be nice/comfortable springy. I know brown isn't springy really but at least the shirt is sleeveless, lol. I did have a pink sweater tank on but dd17 thought it wasn't dressy enough. (funny thing, I never thought I'd be asking that particular dd for fashion advice. she wears jeans and sweatshirts EVERY day. and will wear her black cartharts and boots from fire science when she can get away with it

.

stews · 05-09-2008, 06:09 PM

MY SON CALLED!

better yet, he is going to come into town either saturday night or sunday morning. He'll spend a little time with his mom sunday in the morning probably and then meet up with us in the afternoon! I invited him to church but doubt he'll come. couldn't pass up the opportunity to invite him (without pressure, but just that he's always welcome).

Thank you MK...

I reread what I wrote and I feel kind of dumb about it.

My kids are really loving and treat me great...there is just a weirdness for me sometimes when I want to take away their pain and know that I can't. Not with that kind of loss. I'm learning how different their grief is at each age and stage and I know I CAN NOT personalize it. Thanks so much for the kind words.

My company is out running errands for the graduation ceremony. The girl who came to clean the house today seems to have done a good job. I'm sick and don't really care.

Stews...I love brown and pink together! I think you'll look terrific! Have a fun time! You deserve it!

Peskie is out on her date night so it will be quiet around here!

Peskie · 05-09-2008, 06:41 PM

Did my dooy just insinuate I'm chatty?!

Peskie · 05-09-2008, 06:42 PM

DH just admitted he thinks all the WIT's he's met so far are cutie patooties and fun.

People around here like beer with everything. I even put beer in my chili.

You don't even have to have an excuse or party to drink beer in La. If they don't have a reason, they will make up one.

gotta hit the sack. I have to be at my school at 6:50 am tomorrow. blech.

TuscanGirl · 05-10-2008, 06:09 AM
