  • I have to be at work tomorrow at 6 a.m. so I'll reply now

    Lisa WOW not even an inch of snow?? I would be deliriously happy with that little snow LOL

    Lisa I enjoyed looking at the pics of the homes you were considering, but I applaud you for making a solid decision takes courage. ! And yay to you for making the eye appt. to replace your glasses. Do you switch off glasses for contacts sometimes?

    Enjoy having all the fur babies to your self I should get a pic of my Eddie dog to share here. I love him, the big goof

    have a good evening Lisa and any others reading!
  • Holly, nope not even an inch of snow so far, this winter. It's just really weird. We usually get 2 or 3 snow storms a winter. I think you got our snow.

    I'm looking at a rental in the morning, maybe another one, if it's not rented today by someone else. I'm pretty much going to take what I can get, I need to get out of Jennifer's hair. Both these places are at Indian Lake. Wish me luck getting one.

    edited **** The man just texted me. The client did not show up tonight so I will be seeing his rental too, in the morning. I am quite excited.


    I don't remember if I told you all I will be signing the contract this week and should be getting some money. That is why I am looking at places and getting new glasses. Holly, I usually only wear glasses, contacts are kind of expensive as I need special ones. I should be able to afford them now since I won't be broke.

    Show us Eddie, Holly.


    Miss you ladies, Kathleen, Coop, Monica and anyone else i missed. Have a great Saturday.
  • Good news, good news, ladies!!!


    I officially have a new residence. The house is really small but it is clean and cozy and I love it.!!! Right on the lake.

    Rent covers everything, water, trash, electric and Directv. I am so excited.
  • This is my new place.




    This is the view out the backdoor.

  • WOW what a nice looking place Lisa! Congratulations! 👏
  • again, big congrats to Lisa!

    here's Eddie


  • Quote: I'd love to visit Scotland, Coop, Ireland too. Want a visitor someday?

    I am meeting the house cleaner tomorrow morning at 9 am. He wants me to show him what stays and what goes. The dumpster will be there monday morning.

    No, signed contract yet. That is another things that is frustrating me. I won't go into details, except to say, he does want the house but wants it cleaned out first. It pissed me off.
    Visit any time!

    By the way, the house looks really lovely! It may be small, but exactly what you need right now! When do you move?
  • Just a flying visit tonight, I'm going to make a longer post soon. I'm having a really awful time just now, and need to get all my irrational thoughts down, but it's too much to go into with the time I have. I'll be back in a day or two.

    Hi to everyone, hope you're all keeping well!

    I looked at furniture today and again tomorrow. Some can be delivered on Friday. I'm guessing i can move next week.

    The house is getting emptied tomorrow, at least the dumpster is supposed to be there tomorrow. I have an appt with my meds nurse and several other things to do tomorrow. Busy day.

    Coop, I do that sometimes when things are bad. I just don't feel up to posting because there are just so many thoughts, bad thoughts.

    Just come back when you feel up to it. We'll be here.

    OMG I am so very sorry. Oh Jesika it is totally normal to not be doing ok. Trust me, if you were doing ok now, I would be shocked.
