Awwwww.....Monday Mail Call. You could rip my heart out, jump up and down on it and it wouldn't feel any different. I love these guys and ladies so much. I wish I could hooch and smug every single one of them...squeeze them till I cut the circulation off. LOL ('scuse me while I grab a tissue and swallow a sip of coffee to get this lump out of my throat).

Hey y'all, I have not been feeling well the past two weeks. I have a painful muscle condition which has actually been doing great for awhile now. But for some sad reason it has flared up again and I can hardly sit here for 5 minutes without feeling like I want to jump off a bridge from the pain. Sitting here is very bad for it. I'm not saying good bye, because I will NEVER leave our troops or my friends in here. I'm just going to have to slow down until I get better. Sitting here literally makes me sick.

I'm going to pop in here as the day goes by to write my letters to the troops when I get a break or two. But if you see me sitting here for too long, please tell me to make like a tree and leave. I've got to get better, because a mother in pain is not a good mother and my kids need me.

Have a beautiful Monday.

PS: I think I've found a secret to losing weight. I spent two days at a homeschooling convention and I lost 10 Lbs. I kid you not. I weighed myself yesterday and the scale said I lost 10 pounds. I kicked it and checked it, etc. DH said, "Don't fight it honey". ROFL! So I guess getting off the computer, walking around, lugging a 20 Lb back pack seems to be the trick to weight loss. Woohoo!

I am so sorry to hear that. You take care of yourself. Your family needs you, including this one.

Good Morning Spookie! I'm sorry that you are in so much pain. I hope that you can get better soon so that you can play with us. I MISS you when you are not here.

I'm glad that the homeschooling conference was sooooo successful. ((((HUG))))

Well, I have to go do some real world stuff. I hope you have a super great day!!!

Spookie, I'm so sorry you are not feeling well. I understand completely! Here's some new toys for you that I hope will put a smile on your face. Snag whichever ones you want. {{{NHH}}} Jen

Oh Spookie, I am so sorry it hurts. Been there, done that. Feel better soon. You are right, Mommies can't be sick or hurt or ............................((((((HUGS))))))! And carrying a 20# back pack can't be helping. Get one with wheels. Prayers for feeling better.
