    Good morning all I slept like a baby, these cells are more comfortable than I thought. Though for some reason my behind is a bit sore... but I asked bubba if he did anything and he said no... though their was strange gleam in his eyes. I suppose it was just the lighting.

    Im glad it isn't that cold down here! It's a very pleasant 80 or so. Starby just move down here with me ;)

    What a tease you are! 80's... pppffftt! ;)

    My parents live in FL. I'm sure it's nice and toasty there too! :(

    Oh well, wait until July and then I'll be crabbin about it being 100 stupid degrees. Lol I live in a city in Alberta that is infamous for insanely cold winters, and insanely hot summers. Can't win for losing!

    Honestly? I think I'm depressed. There's just so much stinkin' drama going on in my life these days. It's only been a week since Grandpa died and the divide-and-conquer-ness in my Uncle's wife has claimed so much of my heritage.

    Yes, depressed.

    But, to everyone that asks, "I'm Great! Thanks!" :D

    *sigh*

    It's no wonder that you are feeling depressed. You've just had so much to deal with. :( Sorry sweets. Wish I could do something to cheer you up a bit.

    How 'bout a Starby kiss?

    Lol. Thanks, Girl. :)

    I think part of it has to do with the fact that I haven't really cried yet. I've been going and going since when he died and have been with people since. My brother is staying with me until tomorrow, then Firday I have two more people coming for a week. THen Mom is coming back. So, it's crazy... and I feel like I'm about to explode!

    Crap. Someone just called for an article interview... *sigh*... got to go! Again!

    You need a VACAY Chicky! You need to go hop a plane down to the keys! You can get a cheapie flight there. Grab yourself a chaise lounge, and lay out on the beach with a good book and a cabana boy! Some good music, good food, lots and lots of your fave coffee, and just relax in the sun, away from all of the stress. Let yourself go, and allow yourself to have a good cry.

    Easy to say right now right? I guess that wouldn't be feasible right now, but it's nice to think of right? Keep looking forward to your trip to China. I hope you get enough money together so you can go very soon. ;)

    I am freaking awesome... Warm and 20 degrees with rain one day and the next, -10 and snow. Lol

    Got to love Canada.

    I am feeling good, even though have been dealing with one difficult relative, and it is a shame but I need to learn how to let that stuff go. His loss not mine. Lol

    How are you doing this fine Monday Morn?
  • Mar 9, 2009, 10:31 AM

    I know!. this weather is just crazy! It was like plus 13 last week, and now it's -26 Celsius. It was raining here too, and then we got another huge dump lastnite! I'm sure we have at least a foot and a half, and of course the drifts are stupid high.

    Sorry to hear about your annoying relative. I have a few of those... trust me! It's not fun is it?!

    I'm fine. Still sitting with my leg up. I can't even go out on crutches, because I know I would slip and fall again, with all of the frozen ice underneath the snow!

    So yeah... fun times! ;)

    Wow. Congrats Sir Stringer! That's awesome! :)

    No worries. :) I'm just in a funk. But, as you say, I'm strong and I WILL stand in this rain and be fine. (I'm singing a Superchick song these days - Stand in the Rain - and it's perfectly portraying where I'm living. Posted the lyrics under my QUotes thread)

Nikster was excited... came barrelling at me... I went sideways... feet stayed straight and stuck in the snow... yelled for help... layed in snow... crawled home... took forever... ligaments torn... Niki in trouble. I think that about sums it up! LOL!

    There can not be any bashing of Illinois, as I am still stuck here and actually today our weather isn't that bad!

    BTW, Congrats Stringer. Got to love a great day in the office and a little stress off. :D

    Lol sure their can! My dad loves when it snows, we have friends that still live up their so he calls to complain about how cold it is all through the winter. Stuff like "man it got down to 50 today its freezing! whats the weather like where your at?" the reply tends to be something along the lines of "(lots of cussing) 8 inches (some more cussing) snow(more cussing, this time at my dad because he is laughing so hard)". What are friends for? :)


    Starby just so you know feet arnt meant to bend that way! Maybe next time you will know better.
    p.s. starby that sounds painful sorry for the mishap.

    You know my son is almost a twin of Tom Cruise. I think, of course that he is handsome and a good kid. But since he was about 17 people have been telling him that, he has had several people stop him in stores and on the street asking him for an autograph... P*sses off his wife big time...

    Thank you cuteee...

    I really kind of like the Chicago area, I used to live in Lakeview Tower on the 26th floor facing east and west... but I like my home ion the western suburbs a lot to, more peaceful. And we are still close enough to go to the theater and clubs downtown...

    But you need a getaway too... although I haven't had much time for 'getaways' lately... :mad:

    Marta and I are planning to getaway to Mackinaw Island for two weeks this June... hopefully... :)

    The drive up the eastern shore of Lake Michigan into the mountains is simply breathtaking, reminds me of Western Pennsylvania...

    My first trip to Mackinaw Island was inspired by the movie 'Somewhere in Time' with Christopher Reeves... great movie... AND they have that very same picture in that small room at The Grand of the actress in the movie. Remember when he went into the room to look at her, it's actually still there from the movie.
