Thanks for the welcome back ladies.
We had a fabulous time at the beach.
Anyways, I'm home again to real life, which is hot hot, and our washing maching is having fits, cuz our water pressure is not enough, due to our well still being dry.
Glad you had such a wonderful time! I remember camping with my family, grandparents, cousins...always a large, crazy group but oh so much fun!
I hope you get your well drilled deeper soon. I grew up on a farm in So Colorado so I know all about well water and drilling and such. Never good when the wells start to go dry. Right now they are no longer issuing well permits in my farming community because of the water levels...they just have to drill deeper. Hang in there, I can't imagine how difficult it must be!
Francine passed away a little over a week ago.

Hugs to Cheryl!
Welcome back Mel!!
Yeah I am besides myself about this whole business thing. Shane REALLY wants this but he is a bit naive.
Shane and I have always kind of struggled a bit financially but we don't have much debt and I have always stayed home and never worked more than part time since the kids were born. They have been able to play sports and do Girl Scouts and I have been able to volunteer in their classes. To me this business represents everything I grew up with and it scares me. Sure we need to be better off financially but at what cost like I said. Plus if this guy can't understand that this is a rough time for us right now with everything going on with Lynn etc then he is a jerk.
What a difficult decision! I hope it all works out for you all! Owning your own business seems really appealing but the bad part is you never can go home and be 'off' work. My parents owned their own farm my entire growing up life and it was a struggle for much of my young years, they finally stated making money when I was in high school which helped a lot and are doing very well now. Luckily my mom was able to stay home and take care of us and we were allowed to do all the school and other outside activities. The girls really will remember more what you did with them rather than what you could afford to buy them. Your time and being there is the most valuable thing to them.
However, it turns out that when I dropped a frozen roast on my toe a few months ago it damaged the nail bed and now the nail has separated from the bed (and may never re-attach) double and YUCK! At least it doesn't hurt--thank God for nail polish!
Hey Cheryl - I had this same kind of thing! When I was moving to CA from CO I was wearing these little pointy toed tennis shoes and I guess I bruised my toenail going up and down stairs all day. When we were driving out to CA it started aching and then about a week later it got really ugly kind of greenish/black. I thought I had a fungus too because I didn't remember stubbing it or dropping anythign on it. My sister is a hair dress and does nails so I called her and described what it was because she knows nail fungus and she said it didn't sound like fungus. I then had Bob's Ex-wife look at it, she's an RN and she said it looked like I bruised it. It is still black on the very end but it has taken almost a year to get back to semi normal. And yes, I kept nail polish on it most of the time and occasionally I'd take of the polish and put on a cute breast cancer bandaide I bought but other than that...no one has seen this ugly toe nail!
My bloodwork came back, and it turns out that I was pregnant...for about 2 days.
Hugs Heather!
So while I was waiting I kept trying to get Shane's and would you believe I got in RIGHT at 6 and he still got A50! That is crazy! Southwest must be doing something crazy with holding a bunch of seats for business class or something cuz there is NO WAY that 50 other people checked in RIGHT at 6! Plus then after waiting on hold for 10 mins, getting my conf and entering the girls and I's info we were 51, 52 and 53!
But at least we got them. Plus since Shane is first he can go in and save us seats. But still 50 is so far back. Hopefully we can still sit together.
I fly Southwest all the time and I think you should be ok. Usually as long as you have A seating there will be seats together. With your 50ish numbers only 49 people will ge on in front of you and the planes hold at least 150 passengers. You should be ok.
I've given up my seat when flying alone for moms/parents with kids. Once I even gave it up for a dreaded middle seat. That was my good deed for the week!
Good morning, sweeties.
So I'm asking for some lady advice. This Saturday is mine and DBF's 6 year scared1 anniversary. Any ideas what to get the guy? He told me he doesn't want/need anything, but I still want to get/do something cute. Over 6 years of birthdays/holidays/anniversaries I've pretty much done/bought it all. Any ideas would be wonderful. (I used a lot of /'s!)
Hi Courtney! I wish I had some suggestions but I am the worst at thinking of creative gifts. Does he like concerts or anything like that? For our 2nd Anniversary in July Bob bought two cheapy red and white checkered bowls and wrote on tape 'Hollywood' it took me a minute but I got it...he had gotten us tickets to several concerts at the Hollywood Bowl. I'm so boring when it comes to gift ideas. I did give him tickets to see Love in Las Vegas but I didn't do anything creative.
Hello to everyone else and I hope you all have a great day!
