Well, most of you know me by now:
Song Lyrics
Butterflied in Maton Rouge, headin' for the train
Feelin' nearly faded at Marquee's
Bobby found the diesel down, just before it rained
Took us all the way to New Orleans
I took my harpoon out of my dirty red bandanna
I was blowin' sad while Bobby sang the blues
With that windshield wiper slappin' time and Bobby clappin' hands
We finally sang up every song that driver knew
Chorus:
Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose
And nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's free
Feelin' good was easy, Lord when Bobby sang the blues
Buddy, that was good enough for me, good enough for me and Bobby McGee
From the coalmines of Kentucky to the California sun
Bobby shared the secrets of my soul
Standin' right beside me, through everything I've done
And every night he kept me from the cold
Then somewhere near Salinas, I let him slip away
Lookin' for the home I hope he'll find
And I'll trade all my tomorrows for a single yesterday
Holdin' Bobby's body next to mine
Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose
And nothin' left is all he left for me
Ah, feelin' good was easy, Lord when Bobby sang the blues
Buddy, that was good enough for me, good enough for me and Bobby McGee
Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee, good enough for me and my Bobby McGee
I let him slip away, lookin' for that home I hope he'll find
Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee, good enough for me and my Bobby McGee
Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee... (to fade)
Kris wrote it; Janis sang it, too

thanks to every one that gave advice
my daughter and I made up,christmas eve after not speaking for 8 month's or more. we had been through a real ugly mess.I didn't even give her a birthday gift, first time ever, at christmas I had her a gift made spacial just for her, baby picture of her and her son lazaret in to a heart necklace made of gold. but can not get it until after christmas. so I got her a 5.00 reba tape, she loves that singer,I took stephanie to a Reba concert one year for her birthday,we stayed in a hotel 2 nights.
well I left the tape at home so i had nothing to give her,at christmas,gave all my other adult kids and 9 grandkids very good gifts,such as trampolinens, china cabinets airbrush sets ext.I felt so sorry for her,i could see the sadness in her eyes.but i couldn't bring my self to speak to her,even though i had a gift for her.I went to the comp. and made her a buetifull card,im not good at that at all,but i guess god took over.and i found the courage to give it to her,[I said; here this is you'res] and walked away. she came in the room where i was at and said MOM that was buetifull and fell into my arms and we both fell apart and every one in the house was crying. [THE BEST CHRISTMAS GIFT EVER]
NEVER GET TO HURT TO STOP SPEAKING TO A LOVED ONE,NOTHING IS WORSE THAN LOSING THE LOVE OF you're CHILD.
frankemp, I've had a similiar situation with my youngest daughter.
We did not speak for almost two years, meantime she had another baby, a little boy, and it broke my heart not to be a part of that wondrous time.
She hurt me deeply by what she did, and I almost felt she did it on purpose, to get back at me for something, as usual. We are both stubborn, but she was the one who gave in.
One day she called and said, "how about we agree to disagree, and be done with the silent treatment?" She also mentioned we should make a pact to not ever let this happen again (meaning the silent treatment) because life is too short.
Well, they all came to visit the week before Thanksgiving, they spent 3 days with us, then went to visit her husbands family on the west coast of Florida to spend Thanksgiving with them. Now ....... I could have been pissed at that, but decided I was just happy they made the effort to visit us, the kids had a blast here, went home with all sorts of toys and goodies.
I can't tell you how good it was to be with them again, I had forgotten how I missed them.
That is the real spirit of Christmas, isn't it?

Hi, misti26
thank you for sharing that with me,It sounds a lot like what happen to us. and i was the stubborn one. no one wanted to be the first to speak. but as you said,I WAS HURT BY A LOT OF NASTY THINGS SHE LIED TO MY BISHOP ABOUT.[IT REALY HURT] I didn't know if i could ever forgive her,but i'm at the point I just want my daughter back.and i am much happier.[our story is a long one]
ps-if you need to talk im here
frankemp, I am just so happy you are speaking with your daughter and I am happy that I am too!
AFter a time and fashion, it isn't important as to how or when, just that it is.
I have always felt intimidated by my youngest daughter, but at the same time I realize she is so much in need of affirmation of my love for her ... but at the same time, I feel she goes out of her way to degrade me.
I'm just not going to honor it anymre by giving it any thought. It's just not important!
Good luck to you and yours, my dear!
A big smile for you both Frank and Misti:
Let's just hope that oldandknew returns to A2K in time for the new year.
Ring out the old--bring back the knew.
daughter's
misti26
my daughter also tries to intimidate me,and loves to degrade me when I'm getting to close to the truth.she knows I get very hurt, if she brings up my past,that has nothing to do with anything. Hey! but that's all in the past, we are closer than we have ever been,and I [love her to death]. Misti26 I hope you and your daughter can work out ever thing also. life is to short,to hold grudges,we need to speed time spreading our love around the world.
help
I don't know how to delete my old messages,could some one please,help me?
Frankemp, let's just allow them to grow and mature, because some day they will be in the same place we are now, and remember.................
so, so true
Misti26.
That is so true,I see my mother in me many times and things I didn't understand at the time,but of course I do now'
