Yikes! that woman sounds like a nightmare!!

Id be upset if I came out to see some woman and Daniel whispering... Sorry you had to go through that....  This woman sounds like an unhealthy person to be around... Hopefully you dont have to dealw ith her much...

LOL@ time to get the chuckwagon going... thats gotta be how it feels sometimes....

Daniel wants to join a custom combine crew and want me to be the "cookie" of it... LOL I said no thanks Id rather stay home and enjoy the fruits of your labor while working my nursing job Im busting my butt to get to....

Hope your having a good hump day....

Love and HUggs

Janica

Don't be fearful Lizzy. J has to do the right thing by his company - and this guy will get his comeuppance, don't you worry about that.

Must fly now, but I'll keep you in my prayers.

Emmi xxx

Hopefully the puppy will get used to riding in the vehicle soon....

Have a safe ride back up north when you go....

Love and HUggs

Janica

Hey there... I have been really thinking about you. I am trying so hard to get on with life and not worry so much but...it is almost impossible.

Well, I hope you made it home ok.

Miss you girlfriend!

[JustMeT]

just use a little more frosting on that lower side of the cake...lol. 

it's good to hear that there are honest people out there still, like you and this person who called to say they found his deposit slip.  i know there is good out there...we just seem to always hear more bad.

[terriberri]

Id have gone stir crazy by now living in a camper, but maybe its different with friends and family around.... BUt I sure know Id be missing the comforts of home...

I bet you do miss your daughter... Id miss mine too, heck they go to their dads and Im missing them before we even get home from dropping them off, which is why Daniel always tries to take me somewhere special after we drop the girls off, to take my mind off them being gone....  Its always been me and the girls, always, so its weird when they arent around for a day or so....

I agree with Michael down there, grab something excellent off the menu tonight coz you "fo sho" deserve it!!!

As far as vacation goes, Enjoy the days with your friends but enjoy the nights even more with hubby!!! *WINKZ*

Have a great day today hun....

Love and HUggs

Janica

P.S. Thats great to hear about your son possibly being foreman in no time at all.... thats great for him!!!

[Rumyn]

Ive got a nice cast iron frying pan you can use if needed... LOL

I know how horrid camping in the heat and humidity can suck.... we do it each year this time of year for We Fest (which were not going to this year coz of my surgery)....

I hope the coyotes dont get your lil pup... that would be sad!!!

I must have missed something where are you going that you need a travel agent?

My in laws are on an alaskan cruise right now.... Im jealous!!!

Have a GREAT day.... Try to enjoy your walks....look for the beauty around you....

Love and HUggs and Prayers....

Janica

In reference to the frying pan and the side of a mans' head; I am in TOTAL agreement. I live in a house with "himself," because it's WHAT HE WANTS! As you know, I want a home on four wheels; but I'm not allowed to have that; yet!!!

Actually, I love my new home because it's easy to keep tidy, ( I can close off areas of the house where he and the dogs don't have access,) and they only get the hallways, the sunroom, the dining room  and the laundry.(and loo)  I do ALL the cooking and cleaning and laundry, which I just whizz through, then I can get on with  the gardenz or come to the library, walk around town, so it's not a difficult sacrifice, for now! It'll need a little more creative thought when I startschool.

Love to you and J

Emmi xxxx

Im so glad you are there for the daughters boyfriend,,, you truly are a great woman my friend!!!!

Thats funny how the gawkers turned their chairs around... and now they left... hahahahhaha

My inlaws are on an alaskan cruise right now, they borded the boat yesterday....Im excited for them its a dream come true for them.... One day Daniela dn I will go...

Have a great sunday my friend....love being sent your way...

Love and HUggs

Janica

Staring people creep me out... I hope they arent there long!

Sounds like you are adjusting to this new "lifestyle" well... I am glad you are....

The boys sure do sound like they need some help in the cooking department, lol

I am sorry Ive been "mia"... Im trying to catch up as quick as I can...

I miss reading everyone everyday....and commenting....

Love you have a good day.... Supposed to be another hot one today....

Love and HUggs

Janica

Combine demolition derby?! That must have been something to watch...and I assume the blades aren't spinning? I can just see the shrapnel flying into the crowd......
  Sorry to hear about the hubby being less than perfect......or even close to it for a stretch there. I hope things smooth out quickly, because you don't need or deserve that at all. You're putting up with quite enough just living there on your lonesome for so much time. You do have your beagle to comfort you...and is she still barking? I hope not, so she can have her freedom again.
  Our new pup is a cutie alright, and she's a handful with all of that energy. Our last pup (Pops) was 15 years ago, and I think I had a bit more energy myself then, too. But I think we'll manage, and I can still throw a ball quite well. It's fun watching her investigate all the new sights and smells in her new world. Now if we can just get Lilly & Johnny to agree..........
  Sounds like a nice trip down to Cozemel. Denise and I were there once when a cruise ship we were on stopped there. We only went shopping as there wasn't that much time, and the water was very rough that day...activities got cancelled. Are you doing one of those 'inclusive' trips there at a resort? That's something we've wanted to do somewhere...someday....but when? Ugghh.
  You take care of that sunburn, and don't let it  happen again. I know the end result those things can bring later from my trips to the dermatologist to remove some skin cancer.........don't forget your sunscreen and a hat. Later my friend, Michael.
 

Hi Lisa,

Yes! I'm back for a while, until summer school starts - then I'm unavailable again. Yes; I heard that Randy had passed away last last week, very sad!! I watched his lectures with his  students; saw a programme about his home life and watched his wife beg him NOT to die. Heartbreaking stuff, but I'm sure that something good will come from it.

Love you you xxxx

Emmi

Hmm...I'm going to check that out. I've heard that his speech has changed many lives.

47...too young. It is very sad.

(((((((((((((((((((((((HUGGGSSSSSSSSSSS)))))))))))))))))))))))))

Sorry Ive been so distant lately, just dont feel like I have anything to share with anyone thats worth while...so Ive been kinda taking a break...

Glad you have a friend there with you... makes the days go by a bit quicker I bet...least wise I hope so.

Glad J put his foot down about the money and the boys....that had to be difficult for him.... I hope they understand and wont stop talking to him...

Have a great weekend... we are off to the Allis Chalmers Tractor Show that we go to every summer....

Love and HUggs

Janica

  Wow! That was very early and very small. But it sounds like so far so good is seems, and I hope the mother is doing better now, too? We havae a nephew who was born premie and weighed in just under two pounds...he is 3 1/2 and fine now. Prayers will be sent.

  I see you and I agree on one thing, which is one of those "questions" I plan on asking when I enter heaven; "What's with mosquitoes?" Sure seems like He could have found a nicer way to fill that niche in the world of nature. It's good to hear you're doing at least okay there in that camper, and I hope the company is working out for the best. Take care Liz, and I'll see you later. Michael

i am so glad to hear that the little bundle has continued to show signs of being fine in the long run.  so glad.  and i'm guessing mom is doing bettr now too?

so...if J is a grandpa....

are you...

a grandma?

lol

Sounds like you are handling things as well as one can under the circumstances....

Keep it up....

I just wanted to stop in quick before I crawled back into bed to rest somemore and let you knwo Im here and Im reading.... comments arent too coherrant tho due tothe pain meds....

I love you and wish you a good up coming week....

Love HUggs and Prayers

Janica

Aren't all these storms lovely?  Nothing worse than getting rained on while camping!

Thanks for the comment...it always helps to hear from those who've been there!

As for good seafood places, the only one that I know of is Red Lobster, of course. I don't think Green Bay is real big on seafood. We're mostly about the beer and brats, lol!!

(((((((((((((Liz)))))))))))) Sorry to read that your ex is being such a jerk!

   It was good to read that your neighbor was nice!

    Sorry that your son has had such a bad time with his dad.

    Love, Hugs and prayers,

           Jewel

Hey glad all is going good. I am sorry your boy feels like he does...I've went through that with my boys. It is hard to hear.

As for losing children? I totally feel like I lost my baby... all over a girl who lied!

I feel the Duke University families a few years ago.

[JustMeT]

i think all the emotional up and downs regarding your loss, didn't even need the hormonal addition of the first period...in order to be totally normal and expected.  you can't possibly go thru the hopes and expectations, and then success following the hopes, and then excitement and planning following the success....and the loss of it all, without becoming a bit of a mess emotionally here and there.  i think it's so normal and you are so allowed to feel whatever you feel at whatever time you feel it.  i'm so glad to hear that J is supportive and understanding, cause we all know that sometimes men just don't get these things, or else....they suffer themselves and become distant.  you are lucky with him.  and i'm glad your back with him and not alone.   i don't think you are ready for too much alone time yet.  lol...dr. terri has spoken....yikes.

don't mean to lecture....just don't want to see you be hard on yourself.  you always seem so level headed and well thought out, and even fair to yourself.  i like that.

k...i'm rambling.  sorry dear...lol.

Love the Puppies. Must fly - Love you.

Emmi xxxxx

OMG... right now I could really use some alone time. I wish he'd just go to work...but of course that isn't possible since he has no work. OMG.........

I need to get away alone!!!!!!!!!! Seriously!!!!!!!!!!!!

Have a GREAT week!

Nice pics, I swear Ive never seen such green grass before.... I think I could handle camping like that for a while, not a long while but a while anyhow....

Poor beagle has to be tied up....Bet they are happy to be home now, huh?

Have a blessed day....

Love and HUggs

Janica

L,

Enjoy your time home with your daughter, I pray that it goes well for both of you....

Sorry to hear about the cramps, try a heat pack and some ibuproferen...

When will you be going back up north to be with the guys?

I bet the dogs are happy to be back in their own surroundings....

Have a good day.....relax and take it easy.....

Love and HUggs

Janica

Hey you... it's your big day too... I am so scared and nervous! 

Good Luck!

(((hugs))) Terri

Sorry to hear your back is still bothering you... Is it the bed in teh camper thats doing it ? Maybe?

I hope you find the relief you are looking for while in the pool....

I FINALLY get to shower tomorrow after they take the wires out of my back... NO more sponge baths for this gal!!!!

Mmmmmmmm fresh cheese curds.... A town across the river from us has THEE BEST curds ever....

Have a good day swimming... get in a nap too if you need one... you deserve it....!!!!

Sorry the daughter is having drama issues... hopefully she will heed your advice before she loses the boyfriend for good....

Love and HUggs

Janica

An adventerous Saturday night huh?!?!?  I think I might have to be jealous   *giggles*

What amean spirited woman, lets just hope she was having a bad day, not a bad life....A bad day can be allowed once in a while but a full on bad life, come on now....

I wish you luck at your court date, hope it all turns out well.....

Enjoy your time home.... and of course enjoy the 4th of July.....

Hope your back gets to feeling better... As far as the wires, the one lead that Im not using now is taped up good to my body so its not dangling or anything like that, and the one I am using is pulled up through the bottom of my shirt to the collar and the box attaches to my shirt collar, so the wires not in the way then either.... But sleeping is another story... I just want to rip them off and out, tear all the tape andbandages off by the time bedtime rolls around.... LOL  But only 2 more days and I get them out... so thats a good deal....then we schedule the surgery for the implanted one....

Have a great day hun...

Love and HUggs

Janica

YAY for the gf keeping your company!

 Sorry to read about the mean neighbor!

  Praying that things go well with your court date!

  Have a Blessed week!,

         Jewel

I would do just about anything if I could run far away from home... ya know leave all behind and relax. Sounds like you have a great little hide away there. I'm jealous. LOL

I'd much rather be there fighting the mosquitos rather than the courts and J's ex.

Miss you girl!  I seriously think that once this is all done... WE... me and you... need to go do Oprah...so you'll have to go home at least for a few days. 

OMG.. me, you, chicago... Yikes... it would be sooo fun and so needed!

Miss ya girl... Terri

I work til 5... what time would you be able to talk? I have free long distance on the home phone, too. 

[JustMeT]

 I'm soooooooo very glad that J called and told you that he loved you and wanted to meet you for lunch! YAY Him!!!

   Have a Blessed weekend, My Friend!,

              Jewel

((((((((((((((Liz))))))))))))) Heart Hugs! Thank YOU sooooooo very much for the support, the note, the prayers! My thoughts and prayers are with you!

  Have a Blessed weekend!

   Update soon!

   Love,

      Jewel

  Awwwwwwwww, poor little doggie! And one with such a sweet voice, too.......to be muzzled like that. I hope she learns not to bark soon.

   I hope your daughter thinks her situation thru, and makes some wise decisions. I know the pain that comes from not being able to get your kids to make those choices........I'll be praying for you my friend. Good to hear you're feeling better, and hope you get accustomed to that camper soon. Enjoy the swim and workout on the path...........

Dear L....

So glad to hear your back is feeling better....Lets just think of it as I took the pain for you  LOL

I can just picture the assembly line in the moring for lunch packing.... How funny!

How are the dogs doing?  Is there a lake or river near by that they could go for a little dip in if they get hot?

I better get back in bed, Daniel is due home any min....

Love and HUggs

Janica

Glad to read that your back is feeling better and that you are able to trust in God's Plan for you despite all that has happened!

     Sorry that you're daughter is acting this way...You ARE A GOOD MOM!

   Have a Blessed day!,

          Jewel

 Heart Hugs! Just stopping by to check in on you!  Hope that you enjoy the job..Hope that your son gets to work with J!

   Have a blessed day!,

         Jewel

Janica

OH NOOOOO!  OCTOBER?? THAT IS WAY TO LONG! YOU HAVE GOT TO FIND INTERNET!  PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I MISS YOU SOOO MUCH!

CALL ME!!!!!!!!!!

I have to agree... with Terri... you are remarkable to be so strong!

LOL..about the WII.  We got one about 4 months ago... It was so addicting at first. Now it's been a while since we've played. 

[JustMeT]

OMG.........GIRL!  I AM SO SORRY!  I feel absolutely horrible to not be there for you. But thank God, J was there.

Please write me or something. I did read your latest and will not have access to wireless for a while but... please as soon as you get this... please... write me or call. I have the same # as before. 

Just always remember even though it is still hard to take... Everything happens for a reason.

Love you! 

Terri

Hey there Liz... Gosh, I am so lost in your posts...

I guess I need to keep reading to see where it is you are at and what you are doing.

Gosh, I miss you sooo much! All that is going on in my life has been so stressful. I try to forget about it most of the time but...it doesn't work.

Sometimes, I seriously just want to run away and not tell anyone where I am.

Anyway... Take Care......

Love you!

Terri

Oh Lisa,

I have missed you dreadfully, and I never fail to pray for both you and J. - but I haven't had my own computer for 6 months now - I work from the Library;  we're going wireless when we move to Featherston, too. That'll be a relief!

I haven't been able to communicate properly with anyone, so far this year - and next year, I may not have too much time. I do so miss everyone, particularly you and Kat.

Be happy my dear friend. I love you dearly. My new address is; 18 Watt Street. Featherston, Wairarapa. NEW ZEALAND. - and my cell number is  -  6421163 2086.

Love & kisses

Emmi xxxx

L,

*HUGGGGSSSS* and prayers for a safe endeavour... I will miss our little communication also, please do send snail mail, Id like that...

Take care of both you and J....

I hope the dogs get adjusted easily... I know ours has adjusted far better than I figured he would...

Until next time... Know you will be missed and are loved!!!

Love and HUggs

Janica

[Rumyn]

Nope, never been to that campsite before. Sounds neat, though. I like the name.

I had to chuckle...about the Packers tickets, that is. Good luck trying to get them. I know I try every year and fail! But maybe you have a good point with no Brett this time around. Man, that will be weird!

How are you holding up otherwise? You seem to be coping well. Take care and have a safe trip!

Oh my goodness, how fast that went, youll be leaving soon, I pray you can get everything in order and ready to go  and not forget anything....

Good luck with everything.... Ill be praying for you and J...

Love, Huggs and Prayers.....

Janica

Yeah whats up with this whole tomato thing anyhow? I havent heard I just know you cant get them on anything these days,,,,

The daughter drama at least got worked out hopefully for the good of all those involved....

I wish mine would get resolved.... HAHAHAHAHAHA  WIshful thinking.

Anywho, have a good day, glad you didnt get any terriblt storm damage!

Love and HUggs

Janica

P.S. Where in Wisconsin?

((((((((((((((((Liz)))))))))))))) Still praying for you faithfully!

    You have been so very productive! Go You!

   I'm glad that you got to have some mother/daughter time! That is such a Blessing! 

 best wishes with your new purchases!

   Much Love,

       Jewel

Anytime hun....thats what friends are for......

Love and HUggs

Janica

I wish you the best of luck with everything going on with the land sale... I hope it works out in the end....

I wonder if you are pinching your siatic (spelling?) nerve? Sounds like what happens when it does that to me.... Let me know what the doctor says.

Im glad you and the daughter went shopping... the weight will come back off once you can start exrcising again.... and now that you are out working int eh yard and mowing and stuff like that that will help too...

I always notice I lose weight in the summer because of everything I do outside and all the walking I am able to get in....

I will say a prayer for your back pain, and for the land deal... anything else you would like me to pray for?  Ill do it...

Love Ya....

Love and HUggs

Janica

Your weekend sounds like it was fun, glad you did it... you needed the time away and the fun!

I will be interested to hear how the visit ges with Js nephew....And you are so correct, you dont have to be a biological father to be a dad....

Our little miss Steph threw a party while we were away this weekend... again... ONe would have thought she would have learned by now... but i guess not...shes apparently not the brightest bulb in the box at times!

Storms are rolling in here today, I wish we would get the h eat tho.... I like the heat, not the humidity tho....

Have a blessed day today....

Love and HUggs

Janica

Hi Liz!

  Thank you for the sweet note... I'm happy to hear that you're finding things to keep you busy. How wonderful to be able to travel!!! You create so many wonderful memories doing road trips... wish I could afford one of those portable motel on wheels to take us to wherever...

Sounds like we're dealing with the very same weather here in SE Mich... very hot and humid today... love my central air!!!!

Feel free to pick away about Sanibel... it was my first visit there but oh my, do I ever wish to return their again!!!! It was absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!!!! (Captiva too)!

hugs!

Carol

Lizzy Darling,

I am so sad, I can hardly see the keyboard for tears. You and J have been wonderful, you are resilient, you can get out of this dark place. Hang on dear friend. Don't throw your faith away. There has been a good reason for this to happen - we just need to trust that our God is in control and that you will both recover from this set back and go on to batter things.

Love you dearly.

Emmi xxxx

Major heart hugs...I think it's so wonderful that you have been able to stay busy despite your greif...I know being busy helped me after mom's passing.

   Thank YOU for the very sweet note!

    Just KNOW that you are in my thoughts and prayers each morning!

    Much Love,

        Jewel

Ive been praying for you my dear friend, praying over your loss, praying that things get easier for you...

The camper sounds fun, Id love to have one, with the exception of paing to fill it with fuel... or is it a pull behind? A pull behind wouldnt be that terrible....well not as bad on fuel Id have to think anyways....

My girls get out of school today.... Steph will be going to a friends house up north for part of the month and trin will be going to her dads for a couple of weeks....I will be kid free,,, wonder what Ill do with myself....

I wish you a blessed day, stay cool.... We have storms rumbling through here today and tonight also....

Love Ya....

Love and HUggs

Janica

Love you L.....

May you find peace in this time of sorrow....

Praying for you and J....

Love and HUggs

Janica

Hun,

I was worried when there hadnt been an update for a while... I am terribly sorry for your loss... just know that when the time comes and you are called home your baby will be there and they will know you and you will know them...

Losing a baby is one of the most difficult things one can go through in life, I know this I too have suffered this loss (a few times)... and no words can take it away, just know this.... You are loved and surrounded by much love and support....

PLease let meknow if there is anything I can do for you, and ear to bend, a shoulder to cry on...Im here for you!!!

If I were there Id bring a casserole over... its what we Lutherans do for friends in times of sorrow...

I love you... and please tell J he has my love and support also.....

Love and many many Huggs and Prayers

Janica

Oh Lizzie,

  I'm so terribly sorry to learn such sad news... I've been looking for an update from you since you had the test and was sure hoping you were just too busy bustling around and taking care of business...

I'm so sorry for your loss... you and your family are in my prayers...

big big hugs to you both.

Oh, sweetie, I'm so sorry. My heart just dropped when I read this. I can understand why your faith would be shaken--mine would be too.

It does warm my heart to hear you have such a wonderful, supportive husband, though. Things like this can tear couples apart...it's so good to read that you are both still very close.

You're still in my thoughts.
