Sandye, how nice to see you!   @O@

How is La Nina?

Hi LeeAnne and Teresa!   o(:-)

LeeAnne, La Niña is happy, healthy, and huge!  ;D  She did weigh 108 lbs., but I've had her on a weight-loss food and she is down to 101 lbs. now...probably a healthier weight for her.  She still sometimes likes to plop her upper half on me when I'm sitting on the couch...OUCH!  I didn't mean to ignore your emails and hope you didn't take that as a slight.  I've just been very busy and a little down in the dumps for a while.  My DH has senile dementia which just gets progressively worse, and it takes up a lot of my time to try to take care of him and keep him in a reasonably happy/civil mood.  I've been reading more than chatting for the last six months or more.

Teresa, things are about the same.  My youngest daughter,"My Darling Baby Boy" (who's now 8  ;D ) and his ornery, adorable, sweet Baby Sis (who's now 3 and just a blast to be around   @O@ ) were here for the last week, so I'm in a better mood than usual.  DH seems to be more lucid and a little less argumentative when there are other people around.

Well, now that I've told the whole world my family secrets, I just want you all to know I'm just trying to explain my lack of communication.  I could probably be described as a "reserved"  and reasonably quiet type of person, so if I don't have anything halfway cheerful to say, I don't talk much.  I will try to speak up a little more from now on.  Since Spring is officially here, I hope I can get outside and do a bit of ponding and gardening soon.  o(

Sandye you can always pm me when you are down . . . . been there and having friends to listen and help - even cyber friends - was a huge help.  There are a couple of people here who are very responsible for getting me thru the about 8 months without killing myself or someone else . . . .

Sandye,
I just assumed you were busy. Took no offense for your lack of replies.
 
Sorry to hear about your DH. I'm glad everyone else is doing well and that you are well.
My mother now has Alzheimer's on top of severe memory loss/personality change from an illness in 1977.
It is very difficult to deal with. It would be worse if it was a spouse. Best wishes to you both.

Hi Gloria, welcome back.

The list isn't comprehensive, no offense if you weren't on it.

Thanks, gals!  :)

I don't post a lot because the DH thinks I'm probably talking to a "boyfriend"  :o   >:(-  when I'm chatting online, so I tend to just read a lot.  Will try to sneak in a few posts occasionally.  {:-P;; 

Hi, Gloria/April!  I remember you. Welcome back!   :)

My DH thought that too until we started meeting people from the forum.

I've been online since 1999 and no one has ever made an inappropriate suggestion to me. Not sure if I should be flattered about that or not?  :o

Anytime I see something screech across a room and latch onto someone's neck, and the guy screams and tries to get it off, I have to laugh, because what is that thing?
