Oh shoot, Iz-! We must've posted at the same time! Thanks for the back pat. I do forget! And back atcha, babe! And right now I don't have a working camera! Sad A very sad thing indeed. I love to take pics! I'm not anywhere near as good as our cap'n Izzie, but I do miss it.

Morning crew and Captain, the Eagle is awake to start another day, dark, cold and overcast but reading all the threads here brightens my day. Have a great day with the W/W tomorrow Izzie and don't forget to tell her she is missed! Wonder where tryagain is travelling, haven't seen him around for a while, surely he is not in strife with the law again? Laughing

Dev since this is math do you have a few extra thousand hours or so Laughing
Cappy Thanks for the words of support but it's the Idea of the ignorance and the level of the ignorance involved thats got me hotter than a firecracker pepper. No I am not dwelling but I am still trying to figure out how to resolve the problem, as you well know that's what I do best. (Problem resolution specialist). I fell very challenged and inadequate, This is not dwelling because It's most definitely broken and in direct need of repair Razz
As always, again I have been given kind words as to what I am and not just some excuse for a reason as to why I am. As a world we need to focus on the why instead of just the label. Lots of us seem to forget that to repair a problem we need to first understand why it broke. Infidelity and corruption in our justice departments are to blame for intolerable excuses Idea Idea Idea Idea Idea Idea Idea Idea Idea Rolling Eyes

Let the venting pass just like the justice of it. Razz

Still hugging you BigRedDude...

vent away love ... that's good... get it out...

you know, I admire you - you are trying to figure the "why"... I wasn't strong enough - I can't figure the "why" my son has autism or why he is where he is. So I have to put it to the side. My ex-hub still asks "why", as do my parents - but I gave up long ago - I have to let it go or else I don't move forward. "Why?" is not an option for me any longer. Good for you tho hun, in trying to find resolutions - that is admirable and I take my hat off to you.

Feeling inadequate is the worst feeling... I would love to tell you that you aren't, as people tell me.... but the feeling is there no matter what anyone says.

However, see this ----------> Smile I smile each day now which helps ME. You have to do whatever you can and need to, to understand how you came to this point your life.... it's YOUR way, so it has to be the right way, meanwhile... we're here, whenever you want us. ((((BigRed))))




QueenDev.... you make me smile loads Very Happy

Wow, Iz-, didn't know your son was autistic. Have a friend with an autistic son. She's head of Autism Speaks around here. My son is ADHD. It's never easy. But we are all in the mom / parent boat together, aren't we.

I'm happy to oblige when it comes to putting a smile on your face, my friend. Just know that the favor has been returned ten-fold.

Dev it's been said that that is also what I have I just think that it's from
the early years in catholic school, could be being locked away in the donald duck room, could be from the fun treatment of the nuns. Could also be from when my books were thrown out the window. Take your pick,
when you can't trust people with colege degrees, flux it I always say. It's a small statement that speaks for itself, because no one else is cleaning it up and putting it back together. It's a strewn astray mess

Good morning Beagle - I am ready. Smile Hey Izzieliz - yes subterfuge run on again this morning but I think he has just resigned himself to come with me now so he has not driven at all for a few months. I cannot believe how quick he is deteriorating as far as muscle tone and movement. He is the same age as my father-i-law but the comparison is unbelievable. The doc says you cannot compare as each person ages different but it has been quite a dramatic change in the last twelve months. And he is not working on his beloved planes anymore. So we just have a yabber as we drive down and he still flirts with the girls in the lottery shop. Hope your parents are both well.

Yep hun - it's hard watching your folk age - mind you, for my folk they have watched me age with my arthritis which is possibly harder for them.

Mom and Dad came back from holiday today and stopped by for half an hour. Dad was 70 yesterday. He's a funny 'ole coot - before he left to go on holiday he was walking out the door and said "I want to be cremated and my ashes put with mother and Fred" Shocked My mom just looked at him aghast at what he was saying (it was her birthday - 67 - and Dad had completely forgotten!!!!!!!!!!!!!), I laughed coz it was one of those surreal moments and then he said "I may be too old to remember what my wishes are when I need to, but my daughter will know"

So.... way to go Dad!!!!! Shocked

Anyway, they had a lovely time - they were only about an hour away, on Exmoor, but went back to all the places they were when they were kids. Think they are feeling their mortality. It did them the world of good tho, just being away for a few days and no pressures from the normal/abnormal world we usually live in. So that was happy Razz

Such a shame for PaPa that he can't work on his planes or use all those tools in the shed - bless him. I am so glad tho, to hear he is still flirting - he sounds incredible and incorrigible. I think he would be wonderful to meet. Please hug him from Iz Up Above. x

Yeah Izzieliz - it must be hard for your parents with your troubles - my mum and dad have buried one of their sons ( I am the eldest out of four and he was next under me) and you just expect to go before your children.

Well just about to go out and I don't think you will still be awake so have pleasant dreams and yabber to you tomorrow. ((xx))

Hey Indeedee -

Very tough for you and yours - losing a child/sibling.... I can only imagine how awful that would be. So glad you have your family around you girlie.

Hope you and PaPa have a good yabber on the subterfuge run.
