Good evening, Christmas family

Thank you all so much for all the kindness and love you have shown me on losing Ivy and even before, when she was in the hospital. Thank you all also for the the amazing graphics on some of your posts and CHRISTMASSTAR thank you for that wonderful article you sent me. It did help me to put all things in perspective.

I apologize deeply for any negativity I put out last evening. I guess it was my way of trying to accept the situation and for some reason, lashing out seemed to be what I wanted to do. I am so sorry if I offended anyone.

Ivy went to sleep today at 1:30 EST....She was very peaceful and she went to sleep with both of us kissing her and telling her how much we love her.....I know she is in the arms of the Great Physician even as I write. Perhaps even on His lap....The house is somehow MUCH EMPTIER without my "little bean"........I believe her spirit is partly still here because this is where she grew up and was the only home she ever knew.

Xmas- Please, please forgive me for not saying anything about your family situation. I am praying for you xo

CAH and SIT, still remembering you in my prayers. Also your Dad, CAH.


Thank you again, dear Christmas family xoxo You are all such precious gifts xo

hi lou you know i feel for you. how are you this morning??
i beleive the spirit still stays for a while anyway.
After sandy died i could feel him in the house .( i get feelings like this about things anyway..my mates think i have a gift)
there was times that i could feel like something was here..really strong..until one day and you might think this is all in my head..
I was looking out the window and a dove landed on the bonnet of the jeep and i went out with bits of a biscuit for it. thinking it wood fly away, it sat there and never moved eat some of the biscuit and then it lifted its head and looked right at me for about 10 seconds and then turned and flew away. i came into the house and i could not feel sandy here any more.. to this day i beleive that it was sandy saying time to go and goodbye.
Bet you all think am a litle crazy...lol

Your always have your precious memories. and no one can take them away. wee ivy was one of the lucky ones to have a great mum who loved her to bits. and fought to the end for her. she in heaven now running round and playing with no pain

Good Friday morning, my Christmas friends!

I finally got a haircut yesterday, and although there was apparently a bit of drama going on between the three ladies that work there, it turned out pretty good. At one point the girl cutting my hair, while having a barely-civil conversation with a fellow hairdresser, walked out in tears...with half of my head cut! I thought I would leave and come back another day...but half of my head was cut!

She finally came back (15 mintues later), apologized, and started cutting again. Her hands were shaking, and she hooked my ear a couple times with that sharp comb of hers, but we got through it with minimal bloodshed. Yippee!

I'll be opening Bernie's store tomorrow, then I have to go to my cousin's grandmother's funeral, then we're going to Elizabeth's dance recital. Sounds like I have a full day in store.

I'll look forward to seeing you all at Bernie's for breakfast!

I hope y'all have a great day! cheesy

Hahaha... Great story.
And I think you should find you another hairdresser! ASAP! ;]

What is Bernie's?
I was thinking it was some kind of workshop/mechanics/garage for cars, but I guess not?

But I will say YES to breakfast! Im starving!! =]

My blood test was normal; well, as normal as it could be!!! Another chemo on Monday and the doctor said the hair will probably come off next week. Who needs any?

Thats good! ♥
Good luck on Monday...
Thinking of you!

So my sister has booked a cabin down at Lincoln state park right by Santa Claus, Indiana for the last week of may. When she picked up my niece this afternoon I mentioned that I may come down and visit them one day and then head over to check out the town. She told me I wasn't allowed. That they just wanted to get away for awhile.:x Uh hello. I just planned out your whole vacation for you because you didn't even know what all was there. Not to mention the fact that I just babysat your kids for 2 weeks so you could go to Seattle. Now you can't even let me stop by for a couple of hours during your week long vacation. Let's see what happens the next time I'm told I have to babysit without even being asked first.

Ok rant over.

What?
I hope you told her what you just wrote here!

Maybe I have to fly over there to remind her what
a great resource you are for her and for her kids.
She is so lucky to have you in her life, and it seems like she doesn't know it!
Grrrr...!

They should get YOU a vacation!!

Good evening,

It's my wife and my anniversary today, number 10! It seems like yesterday we made our vows. We have been together for nearly 14 years now altogether. Our plans for our night out are put on hold for now, with our family issues up north. We dropped the ball on getting our passports, so now we will be going to the post office on Tuesday to get them as quick as we can.
I am very sleepy tonight, one more day until my day off.


Good night everyone.

Happy anniversary ♥
And Im so sorry to hear about your grandmother in law

Bernie's is a General Store that my father-in-law (Bernie) has operated since the late 50's. It's the only store in Bellville. I love it!

 

[Bradmac]

Good Saturday morning, my Christmas friends!

I am once again posting live from Bernie's General Store in beautiful downtown Bellville, GA! The sausage, bacon and eggs are all cooked, the coffee pot is full and I'm ready for you guys to show up! Seawaters will pick you up in her Lear jet when you're ready!

I'll be here till lunch, then I have a funeral to attend, then my daughter's dance recital.

I hope y'all have a great day! cheesy

Good Morning, Everybody!

Ah!
It's a great day in the Cyber Neighborhood.
The Weekend is here and so is a fabulous new count figure:

Days to the Season: 199
Days to Christmas Day: 241

<< One hundred and ninety-nine, Crown? >>

Yes, sir.
The 100's are here!
(Now that really IS fabulous.)

A bit cooler here this morning but still not bad at 56 degrees.
Of greater concern is the overcast sky with the threat of rain.
(Must the weekend start out wet? Why not hold off until Monday?)

Regardless, you have a Sensational Saturday, Folks.
(After all, the magic of Christmas trumps cloudy skies any day, right?)
