2. Count, reading back about the situation with your FRAD and the driving thing...we went through that with my grandmother when she developed Alzheimer's...she was constantly going out and getting lost, so my mom took her car and hid it at work. My grandmother reported the car as stolen and my mom had to tell the cop what the deal was...luckily he was very understanding and worked with us on it. We luckily got her doctor to report her to the state and they took her license away, but she didn't care and still wanted to drive. As chance would have it, Katrina hit right after that and Grandma's car got damaged and we were finally able to convince her to get rid of the car after that....So maybe you guys will get lucky and have a natural disaster intervene for you too! :p:laugh:

We had baked lemon pepper chicken breast for dinner tonight.

I'm feeling somewhat better, the body pain is gone at least. If I could get the coughing and infected throat and sinuses gone, I'd be good. The cough is terrible. Ugh. I coughed so hard last night, I gave myself a headache.

Oh, y'all aren't going to believe this.. I haven't had one cup of coffee today. I didn't even make any this morning I felt so bad. I've been a regular, everyday coffee drinker since I was 5 years old. I can't remember a day in my life without having coffee. I'll probably make some later, but I'm not wanting any right now. I've been drinking a lot of tea today though.

:tumble:

1. Afternoon Treefam...my day did not get off to a very good start at all...started with getting up to find out there was a problem with the coffeemaker! What, no coffee?! :shock:...Had to wait a couple of hours for the bf to get up and fix the problem...I didn't want to mess something up by messing with it since it's real expensive and it's not mine so I wasn't going to potentially make it worse...but going without coffee for a couple of hours was not a pretty picture...even the dog avoided me! :eek:...then to top that off the TV in the living room where I hang out all day wasn't working, of course I already knew about that, but still no coffee and no TV, UGH! :glare:...All is better now though, he got the coffeemaker fixed, I got my coffee, which is the most important thing :D, and the new lamp for the TV came in several days early and we now have TV out here again! So yay! :D

Bella, I'm sorry you're still feeling bad...sending you some extra heavy duty healing energy this time!

Shawn, I know exactly how you feel...somedays I just hate the whole world and don't really have any reason other than I just do!

6/5 - 5: Hence this, I hear the pain of all others...

3. Having shrimp creole for dinner tonight, but since we ate lunch so late today, I'm not even hungry for it yet...oh well, it'll be good later too. Supposed to be watching a couple of movies tonight, already rented them, but bf is fast asleep, so no telling when we'll get to them. :facepalm:

Bella, no coffee by choice?! :shock:...I can't imagine such a scenario! :blink:

So you're saying I should hope for the Big One? Yeah... not going to happen. My friend should be coming to town mid-July, so I'm going to try dodging that bullet until then. Of course, one thing in my favor is that he keeps forgetting that he has a house key, so even if he does manage to talk someone else into getting him the car (he has one friend who is a massive enabler), perhaps he'll forget that he has the key... :rolleyes:

Bella, I'm glad you're at least capable of functioning. I'll admit it: when I'm as sick as you sound, I wield it as an excuse to get out of everything possible!

I got my CoolFire today: At first I thought it was not as comfortable in my hand as I had imagined, but after several hours of use, I am enjoying it tremendously. In height, it is about mid way between an istick 20/30 and an MVP2; with the other dimensions similar to the MVP2 (at its thickest). One thing that threw me for a minute was the on/off switch at the bottom--at first, I was thinking it was completely dead. :facepalm: All in all, I'm a fan so far.

Dinner smells like it might be ready soon, so I'll catch you all tomorrow. Good night, Treefam!

Angel, I know. I can't imagine it either..lol. I woke up this morning covered in sweat and feeling like I was dying so I dragged myself to the shower and then the couch. It was mid way through the day when I realized I haven't had any coffee yet. I'm blaming it on the flu/sickness. When I was reading what you wrote about y'alls coffee maker not working this morning, I was like "I'd been done went to Starbucks". :lol:

Count, I'm glad you are enjoying the CoolFire. Mine finally decided to track right.. after I sent an email to the vendor this morning asking about it not shipping :facepalm: It went from "shipping info sent" to at the PO in the next town. USPS really needs to work on their tracking system because somethings not right. I should be getting mine tomorrow, hopefully. At least I know it's close now.

I am sorry GMO and Uncle, and all others.... I need prayer, good vibes, well wishes... They have been pushing me and lying, outside of court orders and law abiding laws. I am getting to my wit ends.... how do I as a single fight their whole family and free lawyer? I am becoming so tired.

I'll be sending you all the good energy I can spare on the cosmic highway my friend. I know it may not be what you want to hear but we all just have to try and find all the little positives every second we can. If there's one thing that helps me through the day by day it's that thought.

Life is crazy, terrible things happen and a lot of times it seems like the whole deck of cards is stacked against us and there's no hope or joy sometimes. For me, any time something is bad, I immediately focus on the good. I've got my all my limbs, I got to smell the grass today, I saw a sunset this evening, I got to eat food. If we focus on all the positive things we have and shut out the negative as best we can then the world will seem like a much more beautiful place. I sort of went off on a tangent there but I just wanted to share how I deal with trouble in life. Someone always has it worse.

And if any time you get that panicky, anxious, the-world-is-ending feeling, just relax, breathe deep and close your eyes if you can. "Out with the bad, in with the good, out with the bad, in with the good."

You're going to be okay! :)

I'm really not a hothead, and the visitor NEVER sees anything beyond laid back little ol' me...

That's an absolute shame . . .

I was really hoping that Ya' would do what "You" said . . .

I was going to jump on the counter, scream, bare my teeth and fling feces at them...

AND - Record it to post for "Us" to see . . .

The law says she has rights to this house..

First off - "You" and everyone else know I am not a lawyer, nor do I pretend to be one . . . Now with that disclaimer being given . . . IMO - Here is the thing - Yes - She may have rights to the house (Meaning half ownership and might be due some money when the divorce is settled and house sold) . . . However - since she is the one that left - That does not mean she has rights to enter the house anymore, especially when ever she wants to and/or without "You" being present . . . SO Again - Keep Ya' head up, take a breath, and contact the judge/mediator to tell them what is happening so they can deal with her particularly to enforce the separation agreement . . . AND - DO NOT - Let her or her family push your buttons . . .
JUST CONTINUE TO STAND YOUR GROUND . . . "My" Friend . . .

no nic or no caffeine ain't happening here
long way from being able to stop the nic - cutting down is a very slow process for me
no caffeine for me causes massive headache - if sick and gut can't handle the black coffee that I always have then I cut it with milk/sugar and go slow but make sure I get some

1. Yeah I thought of that, but I'm just way too lazy for that...a friend of mine told me I should have went out and got coffee for both me and the bf...I just laughed and told him he knew me better than that! That just goes against my ethics as a slug! :laugh:

Tiggs, sending lots of good vibes, prayers and (((HUGS))) for you darlin'....hang in there, you're going to make it through this!
