It does help. I know eventually things will be much better. And all his inane texts and emails have less impact on me as the days go by, so some days it's almost funny, but others it's just severely annoying. At this point, I'm simply waiting for my life to move forward. Hopefully in a few more months...

One of the rules my husband has with his ex is that there are to be no texts. That is just not a way that they communicate. It is email only and that is only to make arrangements with the kids and phone calls for emergencies only. The kids, of course, can contact him any time. The texts were awful. You just didn't know when to expect them and they were always negative.

Ouch. Sending lots of pixie dust her way that it's nothing serious!

Ouch, indeed. Hope it all worked out ok. (I am ketchuping.)

I think texts and emails are the same. It doesn't matter which method because both of them can be awful with him. I don't know how many times he's called me abusive and a liar. Granted, I admit my behavior has been less than stellar at times, but he has been just as bad, except he NEVER admits it.

We borrow a chipper from a neighbor and compost branches or use them as mulch as they don't get picked up around here. They also don't do Christmas tree pick up we have to drop them. At lest they get used for animal habitat

I always just toss our tree into the woods in the backyard. It decomposes and in the meantime offers a home for some little critters. They do pick up here but it's always too early. We still have our tree up when they come around.

We're really starting to like AK more and more. Next trip we may spend 2 full and a partial day there. It all depends on the state of MGM. It's funny last trip we managed to find 3 days of things to do there (one was a SWW day) We're hoping to do an EMH night at MGM and knock out the rides quickly and then go back for a day to do everything else at a slow pace.

We love AK too. I never spent less time there than rope drop until close. If we didn't have so much else we wanted to do and the time we want to relax by the pool, I would do two days each trip. We never seem to see everything.

Spent the morning making gingerbread people, snowpeople and trees with the kids. I think they did a marvellous job from start to finish. And we found an unbelievably delicious recipe for the dough. So nice and spiced. Check them out:

Ordered the meats for christmas this morning

Not sure if someone asked already or not but what kind of meats do you prepare?

 

[French Quarter]

Good day everyone. It's going to be a busy day here. We are heading off the pick up the less perishable food items for Christmas. We are taking light rail to go window shopping downtown. Should be a fun day. I forgot to say it's going to be around 57 today!

I was going to say happy birthday but then I realized I read that wrong. You were talking about the temperature and I thought you said you were turning 57. Lol

 

[French Quarter]

No clue. I just Googled "Images of ghosts with money" and that was one that came up.

I think I figured it out the other day. I think it's the little guy from Huffington Post.

 

[French Quarter]

It's my mom's house. She bought it so we could live there. But he acts like he owns it.

You probably have a really good reason and may have already explained and I have forgotten, but why are y still living with this guy?

 

[French Quarter]

I'm just too lazy to color my hair. Plus, once you start, you can't stop!

I just don't think grey hairs look bad.

Oh, it's definitely not my choice. He simply has nowhere to go because he has no money. His closest family lives 50 miles away.

 

[catmom46]

I just don't think grey hairs look bad.

I agree! Although every now and then I think about coloring my hair with a temporary dye. Something like dark cherry red.

 

[French Quarter]

What type of meats will we be having?

Capon,beef and Bacon

I see that you always answered my question. I have never had capon but it sounds interesting.

 

[French Quarter]

Yummy, beef. Even yummier BACON

CNN reported that a study conducted by Toronto-based Maple Leaf Foods revealed that 43% of Canadian men prefer bacon over ...

Can you guess what Maple Leaf sells?

Always the same foot. She doesn't know how it happened 'cause the basket that is under her bed was not sticking out but that is what she ran into when she fell. If it is broken again I'll need to rent a wheelchair or ECV for a few weeks. We have way too much to accomplish for her to hobble around.

Ghosts.

I can do without fluffy. I wondered if it would lay as neatly or start to bunch up.

I just get too warm at night with a comforter. Bluck.

Why not just use the quilt without the cover?

 

[French Quarter]

Oh my.
I first read that as "Naughty-night..."

Rrrrrowl!
