And we’re not in the frozen North, which helps.

I’m excited for you both!!

October isn’t that far away...of course, I was a military wife for 30 years, so I had to adjust my thinking somewhat: “Woo-Hoo! Two months have already passed! Only five more to go!” Or words to that effect.

My friend just recently emailed me the ultra sound of her baby (due in May) and I was excited for them! It was awesome! Back in the day, we had to wait for birth to find out the sex....

I see you wisely avoided the Bunnification Process comment.
All kinds of moral dilemmas there upon finding one’s own self has been turned into a bunny.

I’m sorry to hear of the layoff and the, uh, “family online security violation.”

when it gets too thick remember this: even Stephen didn’t get more than he could handle (ref. Acts 6:8 - 8:2).

He said the meds should work in about 5 days. She will have to take a pill a day for the rest of her life and I give her Glyco chews too.

This is good news!

It is blargh, and also dreck. But life is like that sometimes.

Yah. Happened to me in '94, except the whole company went away (all 6 of us). A few months later I landed this job, far better than anything I could have expected.

Blossoms have started on the trees here. Late this year, by a few weeks.

I have GOT to figure out if I can fit Gorm Mor into the garage! Parked him in front of the garage tonight because high winds are knocking branches off trees, and I didn't particularly like the way some of the high trees were waving on my way home.

They lurve you, and they want to hold you and squeeze you.

"High trees?" I have said, I get high on oxygen, but I don't think they can make that claim.

Just a reminder of were I was last night. Please don’t eat the crumbs.

Oh. Well, that’s..not..good? I guess if any help is needed you should let me know. I’ll be underway all summer, so there won’t be anywhere to spend money.

I’ll pay for part of the vacation, at least, in the interest of people going to the beach and not being stuck in Charlotte all year. I may or may not end up going, but still..

We can’t go on vacation unless he has another job lined up, or already started and some time off available. We’ll just have to see. Who knows, by the beginning of September, we might be in the middle of a move! We’ll let you know *whatever* happens.

You save your money for your own future!

Happy Friday kitteh! Of course, every day is Friday when one is unemployed, but not every day is also Trash Day.

Thank you all very much for your friendship and encouragement. Every one of you is a gift from the Lord.

When Igor retired, he would tell people, “I’ve got nothing to do, and all day to do it in, and when I get tired of it, I lie down and take a nap.”

It was accurate.

Heavenly Father never gives us more than we can bear, and He gives us the strength and tools to deal with it. Some of us don’t know that, or don’t remember it in times of stress. You WILL get through this!

I’ve found most of what I need but I have to find a new and exciting way to get to it. Or something. I have to do some geeking and I’m not sure I understand all I know about the procedure.

The laundry has been calling to me for most of the week, but I’ve been a little side-tracked. :o|
