I can't get just my post to copy, so look towards the top/middle for my first post. In the quote box is a post from Middle of the mitten. Read that. Do you think the same thing I do? I sure do think it's her! I'm SO glad she's ok! Quoting: Texan Buckeye I don't know why she's posting under a different # and as an AC, but I'm just glad to get some news. Hope everyone that's in the storm area is safe. Love you all. Thread: Hurricane Sandy~Frankenstorm could bring Frankenwaves to the Great Lakes! (Page 3) Sorry, forgot the link! TB!!! You got mail! |

For that matter we could have all met and not know it, except for TB and Nines. Hope you all stay safe and out of harms way. Its in the 40's here tonight which is quite cool for this early in the season. I did my show this weekend, did great on the gaia stuff and not so great on the soap. There were tons of other soap people but nobody else with creams and lotions. Have back to back shows the next three weekends. Its getting crazy! Last Edited by flavapor on 10/29/2012 11:47 PM |

It was raining sideways, but we have had worse rainstorms than what we got. It just came with cold weather so that was a little freaky for us. I hope I dont get called up for duty on this one, I am not registered past NC so I hope I dont. I have all these shows and I hate the cold! I am an insurance adjuster for catastrophic claims, not day to day claims, so work is sporatic, but right now I just dont want any more work. Gotta go to bed, will check in with you later. I have been working on that damn website all night and I HATE doing that kind of stuff, its right up there with cleaning toilets. take a look at the site and give me comments, critisism (sp)?? or whatever. its gaianaturalsskincare with the www before it and the .com after. |

Off to sleep in a few. I checked it out, Flav. I love it!! Very professional looking, now to just get google to drop the "?". Is that 'cause you're working on it or because it's new? I'll be sending you a message soon. We have to get a new washer this week, first. Mine just decided to leak everywhere yesterday and we have NO clue why. Hubs tore it apart, but we couldn't find anything wrong. It's at least 12 years old, so I guess it's time. Just really didn't want to replace it yet. Besides, you all know, if you get one, the other one wants to retire, too!! We just don't want the frig to find out how old it is!LOL A LOT older and the one I want won't fit in the space it would have to go in! Nine's, I hope you're ok up there. I've been watching the weather. At least, you're not on the coast. I hope the wind isn't too bad for you. It's snowing tonight in Toledo. Did you get any? Stay warm and dry, don't let Dudely get too comfy in the attic! |

Texan Buckeye User ID: 1533753 United States 10/30/2012 01:41 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Hi everyone! I just got off the phone with mom, they made it through ok. It seems the worst of the wind was just east of them. That area had some, almost, 80MPH winds. Every school in the county is closed today, except MY little town's! I guess the GLP effect works long distance, too!LOL Dad goes to the hospital Wed. for an angiogram and they're going to put stints in both legs, too. He and I talked about it when I was home, but mom and dad didn't know they were going to do it on Wed. until today. The doctor's office called with a time change and that's when dad found out. I hope it works for him. He really hates not being able to get around. Nine's, I got your e-mails. Thanks. I don't know what to say about your kitteh. If he's just hanging on between feedings/treatments, maybe it is time. Kit will let you know. You'll know when you can't do it anymore, too. That kind of treatment is too hard for one person to do alone for a long period of time. Don't wear yourself out. for you. After all the doom, lately, I better get off of here and get something done today!LOL I'll try to catch up with everyone later. |

Poor little tree has a hard time holding the weight (the grower said it was 4 years old). I am from Southern California originally and my grandparents had all the citrus fruits, avocados, and figs in their yard. It was such a happy place! I have to bring my plant inside for winter and it will only get about 6 feet tall when it's full grown. I'm hoping to have a greenhouse set up by that time. Good idea for freezing the juice. For now, I will be happy to have the 8 little ones for cooking and adding to my beer! "Well-behaved women seldom make history." —Laurel Thatcher Ulrich I am only one, but I am one.

I'm ok, most of the time. Really. Those two are super stubborn and ALL the rest of my family is up there, so it's not like they're all on their own. I'm afraid of a similar scene playing out in my family, like yours. If mom would go first, big bro couldn't handle my dad. He wouldn't want to move down here, but he'd have to. He would be totally lost without mom. If dad goes first, mom wouldn't leave Ohio. Everything is there for her. All of her friends that are still alive and the little bit of family that's her age. I thought it was too hard when my grandma died, but I never dreamed watching my parents get old would be so hard. I hope you've found some peace, TG. I takes forever, I know. I was so hoping you would come back on while I was up there. I met Nine's! It took me forever to get together with her and it was too short of a time, but I hoped we could've made it a threesome! Good thing the perv's aren't on this thread!LOL |
