Seeing as I'm greek and a vaper I'd go with the omega.I was thinking of getting a tattoo.
My first choice is:
But, then I thought maybe:
Not as pretty and spiritual. But, I love the multiple meanings. Plus, my daughter, Melinda, says she'll get a matching alpha to go with it.
I hope you can make it. Grab the chance while you can because you are so right…nothing replaces an actual hug! Sometimes your kid goes away and never comes back. EVERLike it or not, my stocking up needs to be over. My oldest daughter, Rachel, is getting married in or near Boston on October 22nd. So, I need to save about $500 to make the trip (airfare, hotel, etc.). That's a LOT of money.
I'm not sure if I'm gonna make it. But, I probably will because I really, really, really want to be there. My daughter moved to Europe in March of 2009. I haven't seen her or her daughter, Star, in person since that time. Seven and a half years is a long time to not see a daughter and granddaughter!
They're planning on going back to Scotland after the wedding. So, who knows how long until I see them again! (if ever)
ETA: Thanks to Google HOs, it doesn't seem nearly as long as it's actually been!
ETA again: But, nothing can replace an actual physical hug!

That's good news. Better to have a bug that you know will go away soon than thinking you'll be stuck feeling like this for 10 weeks. That's great that your iron is up too! As for the teeth, maybe that one falling out is trying to tell you something. After 18 years it might be time for new ones. How long are dentures supposed to last anyway?
I've been using them for years and have always had exceptionally good service from them. We got a very expensive cutting board for our daughter once that started to split in 2 months. No problem, they replaced it with no need to mail the split one back. Last week I got a "No Solicitors" sign that turned out to be a decal. My fault, should have read the description better, but figured for over $9 it would have had a solid backing like the one my SIL just got. No problem, gave me a credit, no need to return it. I have returned things in the past, (I hate returning stuff!) but it was so easy. I'd imagine that with all the business they do there is bound to be a mix-up somewhere. And a shipping problem could be due to the carrier. Maybe you'd have better luck with a drone!

I'm not familiar with that first one. What does it mean? And where on your body are you going to get it?
Exactly! When they first left for Europe, I had given notice for the day off weeks ahead of time. But, we had some special event at work and they scheduled me to work anyway. Can you imagine, my boss was actually surprised when I called in sick! For possibly the last time I ever say my daughter and granddaughter? Come on. Don't be stupid! Getting fired pales in comparison!I hope you can make it. Grab the chance while you can because you are so right…nothing replaces an actual hug! Sometimes your kid goes away and never comes back.

Dentures are definitely NOT supposed to last 18 years. Let's see. I've had mine since about the time Rachel was born in 1981, 35 years. Wow, that's over half my life, 3 1/2 decades!
The first one is Sanskrit for Om, like for meditation. The sound that's supposed to encompass all sounds.
Where on my body hasn't been decided. But, wherever it is, my daughter will get her Alpha in the same place.

Yikes! That is a long time not to see them in person. We get to see Katie 2 or 3 times a year and that's too long between visits. Sure wishing the $'s come together for you to make the trip.

Actually only been the last few weeks the problem started. Real time tracking doesn't exist anymore. Just shipped and on it's way.
Yoo cannot be serious!!!!
Totally agree with you. And phone service is excellent too. I've had to calll them a few times and the deal is you give your phone number and "choose" call back. They call within less than 1 minute!
I ain't skeered! I'd hug ya anyway... I've gotten used to approaching angry women with steroids in their systems. Thank ya, Sir! We're still in the processing phase, but have an appointment on Tuesday next week to meet with the clinical trial folks. We're going to hold off on making any firm decisions until we have as much information as we can gather. My Bride is really good about that... she's a lot smarter than I.
Well you ever try to take a nap in the afternoon, but your mind wanders so much you can't test. Well it happens to me a lot. It goes something like this:
Laid down and thought about Little Bird checking in and how good it was.
That led me to wondering about Bells - no vids for a couple of days.
That led me to thinking about drones.
Which led me to thinking about the guy who uses drones with his ghouls for Halloween scare tactics.
Which led me to thinking about scary movies with ghouls, vampires, bugs, dinosaurs and such.
Which led me to thinking about a giant spider that was so big he ate a T-Rex as a snack.
Just then the spider looked at me and I jumped awake and decided an afternoon cup of coffee was a better idea...
LOL!! Thanks for that, Semi... now I'm probably gonna have nightmares about giant spiders tonight!
ARRGGHHHhhh.... and NOW that song is stuck in my head!
I wish that I had something to offer here, Russell... unfortunately, law enforcement frowns upon tying family members up in the basement and forcing them to talk and listen until they work out their issues.
Seriously though, I can completely understand and relate to your statement of trying to be an anchor point when you're just barely hangin on, yourself. It is more difficult to do than most people realize, and it doesn't seem to get any better with time. Things just keep piling on, and we keep trudging along... because that's all we know to do in the situation. You're a good man, Russ. While I can't match Iffy's sentiment, I do keep you in my thoughts and prayers with fervent hope that things get better for you soon.
@Kaezziel, how did you know what this Yankee had for supper last night?!?!?!?
I crushed white cheddar cheezits, dredged slices in seasoned flour, dunked in egg, smothered with the cracker crumbs and pan fried in butter an oil. Not bad fer a hoozier
I'm sending hugs and prayers to the folks on the BP who are struggling with life's lack of fairness. I pray you all peace of mind, body, and spirit.
C'mon, Sister... How did I know? HA! You know that I never reveal my sources...
Your fish sounds awesome! Mine were pre-breaded and cooked from frozen. Now... did ya drown them in Malt Vinegar (a la: Bell's favorite condiment? )? I did, and it was delicious! Glad that you finally got some good news, Legs!! YAAAYYYYY!!! Keeping prayers going for more good news in 2 weeks!

Wow, you guys have been busy since I was last here. I can't keep up with more than one or two threads at a time, don't know how you do it.
