Ohhhhh, I LOVE THAT AVATAR TOO!!! I love tall ships!!! I've never seen one in real life, but it's on my bucket list. There is a HUGE week long event (I believe, it's a week long), annually in the FL Keys. I sooooooo want to attend someday!!

And, my brain sometimes, I knew you were on FB, because you mentioned you keep in touch with your BF from CA. My bad.:)


So, my dad has been scoped, and there is nothing they can really find. No tumors, polyps, everything including the stomach was normal. The surgeon believes it is diverticular bleeding only, and that 90% of the time it stops on it's own. So, I just wanted to update you. Hope that wasn't TMI. Sorry if it was.

But thank you all again for your prayers, support and well wishes for him. It is truly appreciated!!
Not TMI & thanks for the update. You're still in my thoughts, sweetie!

Hey Chim, are you planning to become a lawyer or something?

Hey Dale! That's apart of the story that Charm's been wanting to hear. Lol! Long story short though I hope to someday. I've actually already graduated from law school but once I graduated the economy went to hell in a hand basket & all of my job & attorney connections went on a hiring freeze or were laying people off. I've never been good at standardized tests so I have taken the Bar Exam & failed by very little. After taking the exam a couple of times it really started to wear on me & I was putting so much stress on myself to the point that I was making myself sick & losing weight. Smh! Just as I was about to take the exam the last time I found out from an attorney friend that they were starting to make the exam tougher because schools were graduating so many new attorneys & they need to cut back on the number of people they admitted to the Bar. More stress there. So I had to take a break but then I ran into some financial issues so now I'm trying to get back on track. But sometimes I get really discouraged. I can't seem to win. I can't get a better job or a job in my field because of my degree it seems like or I'm either over educated or the good ole' I have no experience problem. But no one will let me get any experience. So I feel almost like I'm stuck. Sometimes it's so frustrating!
