Hi guys and gals, I'm back home for a very long while so thought I'd pop in and say howdy to y'all. Had a lot going on the past few months as usual, lots of travel to new places, relaxing, partying and having fun...ooh yeh and I even found time to work in between all that to fund it all. :wink2: Now for my big news...I'm officially going to be a yummy mummy, eeeekkk!! Scary times ahead but guess we all have to settle down and grow up sometime...right?? :eyebrow: :laugh: Hope everyone's doing well, take care folks.

Congratulations, my friend.
Much love.

...how's by you and the knot tying(non-Boy Scout variety)stuff?.....
I've been so busy I could cry: knot-tying stuffs - and there've been quite a lot of them; an unexpected sudden death in the family (horrible); another death, this one of a long-time family friend - also not expected because it was premature; job interviews; dealing with aging parents on both sides; surviving summer heat (not fun); trying to keep my head up. It's been a strange time for me.

Things got real in a big, happy way when I bought my dress and started receiving the first responses to the wedding invitation. (That was so much fun to put together - it was truly a labor of love.)

...I truly am happy for you beautiful.....please give your lesser half a hug and tell him I miss him and his pithy commentaries....my life has been one constant ball of turmoil of late...My daughter and her battle with heroin addiction, getting my oldest boy fully and completely employed so he can start making some money and quit thinking he "failed" in the Army because of their lack of health maintenance, my youngest and his legal troubles...fretting over Tracy who is beating herself up over all of it and now, losing Nate.....I am at my breaking point but trying to hold it all in place, they don't need me jabbering in a corner on top of it......whew!, sorry-so sorry, didn't mean to just puke that all up......otherwise things are damn peachy keen!.....

I'll tell him you said howdy - he'll like that. :)

I am soooooooooooooooooooooooo sorry about your turmoil! I sure hope Tracy and you are not feeling responsible for the kids and their problems. I'm betting your boys will pull out of their situations just fine, especially when your eldest realizes employers value military veterans and is in a job for a little bit. The other one? He'll be laughing about his stuffs in a while, too...but your daughter? That's really scary. The thing is, it's a choice to try drugs, but it's not a choice to become addicted, and that's the unfortunate aspect of recreational drug use. My thoughts and best wishes are with you and Tracy for all your concerns. And no apology necessary for venting - it's the Board, remember? That's what friends do - they listen to each other. xxoo

(((you and Tracy)))
Life can certainly be a Sh!+ Storm. This is the place to let it out. And we'll lift you up. Just like that. Much peace and love to you all. Just take care of each other. It's all you can do.
