Susan Norton, thank you from the bottom of my stomach! Those look good.

[psycho_killer]

Hey all, sorry I've been away for so long, just been busy lately, it seems like, or too tired to think let alone comment......I hope all is well with everyone, though, and that everyone is looking forward to Christmas!!!!!


Merry Christmas to all!!



(oh, and small sidenote.....i got engaged last night.......)


:biggrin2:

Congrats Krys...sorry I'm late, I just woke up from the solstice party.....:oo:

[Lepplady]

*burps*
My stomach says thanks too!

Placing sign in window for Thursday Morning.....

Buckwheat and Pyro are in the House!!!

[Gelata]

Will you have a look at the I didn't catch you thread, please? Thank you.
Oh, and may I have some of these cinammon rolls, please?

[Shasta]

Morning all! I'm taking a large cup of Earl Gray (cream and sugar of course) outside. I'll see you all there!

[Kim L.]

Good Morning, Everyone!
Poisonbat, hope you are feeling better today. Large hot coffee for me & off to work I go hi ho.

[poisonbat]

I am happy to say that I am getting better each day. My dad has been a HUGE help to me as I can not lift or drive yet. My mom bailed on me several days ago, just before my husband and son were due to go back to work:glare:, but my dad stayed and is helping me. I have not heard a word from my step son since WW3 the other night, neither has anyone else. We have decided that he needs to move out. He obviously has somewhere to go since he is gone for weeks at a time. My husband thinks that this is "against the lords wishes" and that he was "un christian like" when he yelled at his son. I told him that even Jesus got angry in the Bible and not to beat himself up over his sons misbehavior. I just don't get it. I am looking forward to not having that stress in my life. Maybe my husband and I can work on our relationship if he is not driving us apart. Any way I will take a large hot green tea and be in bean bag central for now. OH and the weather for next week is calling for highs in the 80's, huh? in January? :umm::bat:

Next time your husband wonders if he's not being Christian-like, ask him how his son's doing with the fifth commandment, dishonoring his mother and father.
I'm glad you're feeling better.

[poisonbat]

It is 7:50 pm here in California and we just had a rocking and rolling earthquake. Not a bad one, moderate a 5.0. Real life roller coaster lol. But all is well even though it was centered fairly close to us. :bat:

[Kim L.]

Good Morning, Everyone!
Yay! It's Friday! Hope you all are having a terrific day. I'm writing this yesterday so can't say yet if I'm having a good day, but I hope so.

Large hot coffee and more cinnamon rolls please.

(((((All tetmates, in need or not)))))

[aussiewonder]

Good Morning to all, so glad your feeling better poisonbat, I know from personal experience that children, no matter how much you love them, or how old they are, can certainly be trying. AWLLS

That's a little hard for me to wrap my brain around this early in the morning Kim. Ouch!:biggrin2:

I haven't posted in the Cantina for a while but I've been lurking around. I'm sorry that some are having troubles and I hope things improve for everyone no matter your circumstances.

Are there any of those yummy cinnamon rolls left? I'll take one with a big glass of milk.:love:

Hugs to anyone who needs one and have a great day!!! And a fantastic weekend!!!

Good morning to all.
Hope all those in the earthquake area are safe.
I think Mother Nature needs more chill pills!


Have a safe and fun filled weekend:smile2:

Good mornign to all.:love:

[Vegetable in Glasses]

Poisonbat, kids and earthquakes? Did you do bad things in a past life?:smile2:
Hope all improves for you and that you can stay patient with your husband. I have a similar situation here, and can only recommend that you try to focus him on the fact that while his expression of it might have been wrong, his conclusions were not.

(leaves tray of panoche that is making my thighs expand at an alarming rate)

[MrsSmeej]

:sad:

I used to post here all the time... But lately, not so much
I read the postings every day to try to keep in touch
I always feel inadequate and don't know what to say
And I'm not sure what good it does when heathens, like me, pray. :eek2:

I really hope you'll all stay well and far from any harms
But, unlike Wiccans on the Board, I don't know any charms
When you get sick or lose a friend I always wish you well
When asked for prayers, I'm kinda stuck... I'm going straight to hell

At least that's what my father says - good Catholic that he is
Beliefs instilled by years of nuns... Oh well, the problem's his
I do not mind. He loves me and he prays for me each day
And, if you'd like, I'll ask him if, for all you guys, he'll pray

He spends a lot of time in church and I no longer do
The Catholic faith and I, for many reasons, are all through
But if the thoughts and hopes of one lapsed Catholic do much good
Then know I'm sending love and joy and peace and brotherhood.

:sleepy:

I'd like to join the bean bag group but know that I'd get stuck
To get me out of one of those we'd need a pickup truck
I think I'll grab a coffee and go settle in a chair
Is that a fireplace I see? Feel free to join me there.

:love:

[dividedgrlofmine]

Good morning (close to afternoon, too)! I hope everyone has an incredible weekend! I'm excited to see my friend's band play in Asbury Park and to see the Giants beat the Eagles. :smile2:

[JohnDalglish]

Hi,

Have a great weekend, everybody !!!!

And I hope a' manner o' things may be well with you and yours, see you in the Social Groups.

Love that, MrsSMeej! I'm going to make a print of it and hang it by the mantel.

[Sundrop]

Hi Y'all! TGIF....I don't work today, so I'm concentrating on doing a bunch of nothing at home today :)

[LadyPain]

Good morning folks. Today is a day off, and if I pretend not to hear the phone at all today, it might stay that way. We'll see. I just know I would really like to have two days off this week.

Life continues to be interesting. I'm hoping that the snow in the area used by the farmer's market has melted enough in the right places. If not, I won't be going. I'm going to go for a drive to check it out later today.

For now, I'll just take a hot cup of tea and go hide in the corner.

[Kim L.]

Have a great weekend, everyone!

[dividedgrlofmine]

Hope everyone had a marvelous weekend. Mine could have been much better, seeing as how the Giants played pitifully. Now I really will watch the Super Bowl solely for the halftime show and the Boss.

[Kim L.]

Good Morning, Everyone!
Happy Monday! I'm happy this morning because my iPod is working again & I don't have to send it in to the Apple people...unless it freezes again.

I'll have a large hot coffee please and a plate of cinnamon toast. I'll be reading in the corner booth by the geraniums, company always welcome.

[poisonbat]

Good morning all. Well this is my first day that I am on my own. All of my family is gone today, my dad went home over the weekend. Still no word from my step son, I kinda thought he may make an appearance over the weekend, but no. I REALLY hope he doesn't show up with his attitude while I am here by myself. I finally get to drive today after 2 weeks of having to have someone give me a lift. I don't really understand why I could not drive for 2 weeks but could ride in the car, doesn't make much sense. :eyebrow: I will be glad to get back to my old routine, my comfort zone. I will take a large hot coffee with plenty of cream and be kicking back enjoying the quite. :bat:

[scotts_girl]

ok folks i really need a drink after this weekend after going out for dinner this fri we got stuck driving home in the blizzard not fun at all we were almost home and we skidded off the road into a snow and ice pile omg i was scared we are fine but my poor car is out off whack now:sad:so i need that Irish office now mmmmmm much better cheers to all and have a great week

[Sundrop]

Hi Y'all

Hope everyone has a wonderful week. I probably won't be able to check in for a while. I've got a lot of end of year stuff to finish up on at work. I'll be back whenever I get a chance, though :)

Woo, scary, Scott's girl, glad you're all right.

thxs i know my neck hurts just now but i think that has to do with being so tense when i was driving ,but sure am glad that snow block was there would of been in the creek otherwise and that would of been no fun

[LadyPain]

Good morning folks! It's a day off so I guess that means I am working at home today. It's been ages since I made soap, so I really should try to get my butt in gear and do it. I'm thinking of doing lavender soap and my B*I*T*C*H soap (Small print below title on wrapper says 'babe in total control of herself'). If I don't start to make soap again, I will run out of stock! Oh well, it was nice to take a break for part of fall and winter.

I think I need a case of Coke to go. It's going to take a lot of caffeine to get me through the day.

[LadyPain]

Hey, I just cracked open my copy of 'The Quest' by Wilbur Smith. I was going to look at it really quick, since now that I have purchased this one, I have everything of Wilbur's again. He writes so beautifully about Africa that I almost went to Africa in my early 20's.

Anyways, inside the book, on the first page past the cover, is this:

'Wilbur Smith's swashbuckling novels of Africa - the bodices rip and the blood flows. You can get lost in them and misplace all of August'

Stephen King

Am I the first here to see this quote? :grinning:

[Speedy2]

Hey Poisonbat, I may have an answer for you on the riding in the car but not driving it...I think because when you ride in a car you don't have to move your lower body parts or your arms and legs but when you drive...you do. This may be the reason. Not sure of the circumstances of your situation, however, when I had surgery they would not let me drive because the doctors didn't want certain muscles used for a while until they healed:) JMO, have a great day and I am glad that you finally got to drive, there is nothing worse than relying on someone else to take you somewhere:eek2:

I hate driving in the snow. I had a near miss or two myself. Glad to hear you're okay. Stinks about the car, though. I hope repairing it isn't too expensive.

[Kim L.]

Good Morning, Everyone!

Hope everyone's week is going well, and hugs to those having a rough time. May I please have a large hot coffee and a doughnut with pink icing? Have you noticed that almost no one spells it "doughnut" anymore?
Off to work I go.

[Solar-Pavlova]

Hi guy's, thought I would bring in a pile of cinnamon danish pastries and a few gallons of mochachino, anyone interested - help yourself!

How is everyone, looking forward to the rest of the new year and the future beyond?

I guess this makes sense, I thought it had more to do with the risk of an accident and the seat belt hitting me right where I had my surgery. But you do use extra muscles while driving, I did not think of this, thanks. I cleaned my house a bit yesterday but found that I still do not have the stamina that I once enjoyed, this will come back in time. I hate having a house that needs cleaning and not being able to do it all at one time, but I figure if I do a bit each day it will get done. I will take a large hot green tea with lots of honey and be out on the patio. It is gonna be in the high 80's here today and I want to enjoy the sun. :bat:

[Gwenivere]

So cold. The thermometer reads 0. I de-iced and refilled 8 horses’ water buckets this morning. One full of frozen manure. YUK! Barn chores aren’t fun on a winter morning. Lepplady, are you really sure you want a horse? I’m just going to take my coffee over and try and fit myself into the fireplace. Brrrrrrrr

[Kim L.]

Good Morning, Everyone!
Hope everyone is well; hugs to all who need them. (((((Tetmates)))))
Got to sleep on time for once & what a difference that extra hour makes. Going to have to try that again sometime:smile2:
Large hot coffee please & some cinnamon toast.

Good Morning to all. Hope everyone is safe and warm. Looks like the big chill is hitting most of the USA this week.

Fresh coffee, brewing tea, juices and any other drinks you desire are awaiting in the Cantina. Fireplace is warm and toasty too.

[poisonbat]

I really messed up. I noticed yesterday that I had forgotten to pay 3 different bills. One was the registration on my son's car! It is due on the 16th of this month. Yup, just a few days. So I had to take his car on an emergency basis to get smogged yesterday. Damn California laws. Found out that his catalytic converter has to be replaced. Damn again. Due to a long term family relationship with the smog guy, my uncle, I was able to obtain this smog certificate at a cost of $207. The registration for the car is only $53 for the year. So I guess I am off to AAA today to get a current registration card for my son. I also forgot the registration for my husbands truck, at least it isn't due until the 31st and I was able to pay that on online. The last was a medical bill that was also due on the 16th, I was able to pay that on over the phone. I can not believe that I was this irresponsible. It is not like me. I have also been fighting my health insurance to pay an outstanding bill that they owe. This is a hard task. The insurance says that the provider must call them, and the provider says that they have already billed for these services. Catch 22, This bill is over $700 and now my doctors office is going to withdraw care from me until it is resolved. I don't know what to do. So much stress, I did not even sleep well last night. I was sorry that I took the a/c out of my front window yesterday, it was 85* and I sweated my butt off. Shorts and a tee shirt in January? Very strange. I will take a large iced tea and kick it on the patio for awhile before it gets too hot. :bat:

[SusanNorton]

Jeez it's cold! It's almost lunchtime here, and I'm eating some couscous and steamed veggies. Beauty knows no pain.... sigh.

I've brought in some hot cherry pie and hot CFC for everyone to share, while we look forward to the upcoming inauguration and the hope of better times.

God bless and protect our new President!

I went through that in 2005, poisonbat: failed the smog test, had to get it retested at one of the those special testing places, then fixed. :glare:
I had bought it out of state and those cars often do not pass. No problems with my current car, thank goodness.

[LadyPain]

Hello folks! I was looking in the newspaper and they tallied up how much snow we got during out winter blizzard fest. A metre and a half. That's FIVE FEET of the fluffy white crap. I hope it does not snow again for a year.

I think I will take a coke and go sit by the fire. Just the thought of all that snow makes me feel cold inside...

[Kim L.]

Stay WARM, everyone! I'll take some of that cherry pie, SusanN; it'll make for a great lunch. I love how everything in here is so tasty and calorie-free and nutritious at the same time. :smile2:

Hey Buckwheat and Pyro, how you boys doing? (drops a couple of fat mice for them) I had the weirdest thing happen to me yesterday, I woke up from a brief nap to find I was blinded in my right eye. No pain, no trauma, just very little vision. I thought at first that I may have slept on it wrong and sat on the couch waiting for it to come back. Did not happen. Then I got really scared and started calling doctors. Of course my doctor happened not to be in yesterday, so they sent me to talk with my OB/GYN doctor since he was the last to see me. HUH? They of course did not know what to do and sent me to Urgent care. The doctor looked at my eye and told me that I had a migraine. I told him that I had no pain, it could not be a migraine. He told me to trust him and he gave me a shot of Imatrex. (sp?) This shot was given to me in my belly, ouch. But in less than 5 minutes I had my eye site back. He told me when he came back in that it was an Ocular Migraine or sometimes called a Silent Migraine that just affects the eye. I did a little research when I came home, and sure enough that is just what it was. Very strange indeed. :eek2::bat:

Hi, Poisonbat. If you haven't already, check out the book Migraine by Oliver Sacks, MD. He's a neurologist & terrific writer; the book is really interesting for us migraineurs.

Wow. I have never heard of that kind of migraine. I usually get the classic variety, complete with visual disturbances and everything else that makes them so brutal.

Take it easy, even with the Imitrex.

That's some scary and strange stuff. Glad to hear you're okay and that the shot worked. I've been to the emergency room about six times for really intense migraines where the left side of my body will go numb and my brain stops working right, but even then I've had blurred vision. I never lost it. I hope that never happens to you again.

[poisonbat]

Good morning all and happy Friday. I am so upset with my daughter. I do not know how such a self absorbed person came from my loins. My daughter lives with her father about 50 miles away. I have only visitations with her every other weekend. This happens to be a 3 day weekend. She is very upset that she "has to" spend this extra day with me. She only wants to see me when she wants something. This weekend she wants to come down because her grandma lives in the same city that I do and she wants her to make her a dress for winter formal. She asked me if she could leave with her boyfriend on Sunday. This really hurts. She is in drama in high school and this is the last weekend that I will get to see her before she starts weekend rehearsals for her play. I will not even get to see her for several months. She lays guilt trips on me when I tell her that I want her to stay with me, and has a terrible attitude if she is here and not doing what she wants to do. Sometimes locking herself in the bathroom for hours just so she doesn't have to see me. I am at my wits end with her. I just don't know what to do, if I give in, she will not change.

Good morning all and happy Friday. I am so upset with my daughter.....I just don't know what to do, if I give in, she will not change. If I don't I am locked out of her world. Having a 15 almost 16 year old daughter is super hard. Any suggestions?:bat:

I firmly believe that one day, years from now but hopefully not too many, she will realize how much she hurt your feelings and she will feel truly sorry. Best thing you can do is treat her fairly, be consistent, and be patient. 15-16 is a bad age, remember? I know I was utterly self-absorbed at that age. I thought I was the hottest thing since sliced bread. Then one day I realized what a little t*rd I had been and that my mother treated me so well even when I treated her like dirt. Thats when I realized what a great person she is.

Completely agree; teenagers can be incredibly self-centered; I know it hurts, poisonbat, but it will pass.

[scotts_girl]

Good morning all and happy Friday. I am so upset with my daughter. I do not know how such a self absorbed person came from my loins. My daughter lives with her father about 50 miles away. I have only visitations with her every other weekend. This happens to be a 3 day weekend. She is very upset that she "has to" spend this extra day with me. She only wants to see me when she wants something. This weekend she wants to come down because her grandma lives in the same city that I do and she wants her to make her a dress for winter formal. She asked me if she could leave with her boyfriend on Sunday. This really hurts. She is in drama in high school and this is the last weekend that I will get to see her before she starts weekend rehearsals for her play. I will not even get to see her for several months. She lays guilt trips on me when I tell her that I want her to stay with me, and has a terrible attitude if she is here and not doing what she wants to do. Sometimes locking herself in the bathroom for hours just so she doesn't have to see me. I am at my wits end with her. I just don't know what to do, if I give in, she will not change. If I don't I am locked out of her world. Having a 15 almost 16 year old daughter is super hard. Any suggestions?:bat:
i feel for you got two teenage girls here one almost 17 the other going on 15 omg im so ready to just kick them out the house right now really im at my wits end here at times i wish i could give you some great advice but im at a loss myself right now(at least i got my wine lol)

May all be warm and safe.
Have a wonderful extended weekend.:smile2:

Has anyone realized that flight 1549- the plane that glided safely into the Hudson River yesterday adds up to "19"? Ka in action again.

Ka, again! It didn't hurt to have an incredibly skilled pilot as well!

Well, good morning everyone. I might not seem like myself in the next while, but please bear with me. I've had more details of some childhood incidents emerge and I'm working on assimilating those memories and I'm not feeling social, so if you don't see me around as much, it'll be okay. They say time heals. I hope that's not a load of bullshiit. I feel like I have fallen into darkness like Gandalf, without staff or sword.

Have a good weekend everyone.

Poisonbat- advice form KIm is spot on. Teenagers are near impossible to deal with. Give it time.

Have a safe and good weekend everyone.

[Eleese of Gilead.]

Hey everyone, it's been a while. Happy Friday indeed!

I just wanted to say to Poinsonbat that I was that teenager. I was nasty and sometimes I couldn't even tell you why. There's this weird thing between a mother and a daughter. I want to tell you that I do feel sorry. I feel embarrassed for things I did and said. There was an anger in me then that seems to be all but a memory now. Things really got better for me when I moved out on my own. Now I have a slight idea of what it's like to run a home. I feel closer to her now and I hope that our relationship will continue to grow. Hang in there.

Good evening to all. Hope everyone had a great weekend and remains safe and warm. Was a beautiful day on the Westcoast of FL- sunny and 70F. However, Mother Nature is still shaking her crystal ball and several nights of 20's approach.

Just a word about Galli (Volic). They have had several days of constant snow fall/followed by one warm day of melt- only to continue with day and night snow and strong winds. She was able to get a short email out to me - She is safe, but without electricity as wires have broken. Roads are closed.

[poisonbat]

Hello to all, I am so glad to be in the cantina this morning. What a stressful weekend. I was so stressed that I had a serious nose bleed. That has only happened 2 other times in my life, the death of my grand parents. I finally had to ask my daughter to go home. I have never had someone that I love speak to me in such a way. I must say that I was relieved when my boys came to me in support of my decision and just held me as I cried. I spoke with her father on the phone and he was not happy with her at all. I have decided to just let her go for the time being and let her do her thing. We can talk and possibly come up with a solution later. She screamed and yelled at me so loudly that she woke up everyone in the house. All I asked her to do was spend 4 days a month with me, and she told me that all I was trying to do was make her feel bad. :glare: Oh well, maybe in a few weeks when she cools down. It is much cooler today, after several days in the 80's I am welcoming the 70's for today. I will be on the patio sipping some cold green tea. :bat:

Hi All,

Having listened to President Obama's speech today (live on british radio) I can say I was very impressed with his passion, and honest outlook at some of the worlds current problems. I believe he can definately make a difference and hope in the next few years to come he will achieve what he wants America to achieve.
I'm sure this will have a good effect on the Britsh (and other countries) and we can all look forward to a bright future.
I heard a saying that.... A man can make the speech, however the speech cannot make the man!....

I'm sure it will... God bless you all
Happy Inauguration Day.

[dividedgrlofmine]

It is so cold in my apartment - I'm not sure if our heat is working/turned on. But hey - what else would you expect from college housing? Haha. Hope everyone else is nice and toasty and enjoying a quiet evening. All those in need are in my thoughts and prayers.

Hello everyone, hope all are well. It is raining today, such a nice change from the heat. I am feeling much better today, I am not letting my situation discourage me. Both of my friends at YAPS are quitting this week, it is so bad that they can not stay there anymore. The heartbreak is too much for them. I knew what was going to happen months ago, that is why I left then. :sad: I tried to post an article in the news paper about what is going on at YAPS, but they told me that they would not post anything negative about them because the editor is good friends with the head of the board of directors. This was told to me by a lady at the counter when I brought my article to them. So much for that, I have sent it to other papers, have not heard anything about it. It may come down to a public out cry in front of a super market to get the word out. Letters to the supporters of Yaps, let the people know what is going on. It is a tragedy. I will be in bean bag central with Spidey.:bat:

Can I come in folks? :down: First time in here I think.

Poisonbat, too bad to hear your sad news, both with the family and the rescue. :sad: Would a warm black paw in your shoulder make you feel better? :love: Please take care of those nosebleedings because of stress. I had one once, and it could be related to high blood pressure. Probably you know that, but just in case...

I don’t know if it was discussed previously, but I’m missing John D. Any news about him? :dunno: Sorry if I’m not updated…

I hate to disagree with most of you guys, but in terms of drinks, can someone hand me a cold glass full of tonic water with plenty of ice? :D Thankee!

Hello everyone, hope all is well. Things are slowly coming together here. I managed to have a civil conversation through email with my daughter. The email idea was mine, I do not want a texting war again with her. I sent her an email about how hard it is to lose your children to adulthood. I also told her that I loved her. We communicated for about 5 emails, she said that maybe someday she would FULLY understand when she becomes a mom herself. My heart is just empty and can not find anything to fill it. Sadness fills my days and nights.:sad: My eldest son wants me to help him fill out applications for a new career.:eek2: Wow almost 20, that has hit me hard as I know he will be leaving soon. My second son is filling out applications to colleges, I only have 3 more legal visitations with him, he will be 18. I do not know how to deal with all of this, any advise would be greatly appreciated. I have been a mom for 20 years and do not know how to be anything else. :bat:

Just a quick note to say that I am going away for a while. Need time off. The stress has gotten to me and it seems that everyone in my family has turned their back on me. I am going to my mothers for about a week, and her internet is ify at best so I may not be able to check in with you all for a while. I will miss you all, and still look at you as my closest friends.

[wulfhurley82]

((((Poisonbat))))) Many prayers and good vibes to ya, big-big.

I am doing better. I am a lot better. I am trying something out that my wife suggested. Instead of blowing steam and getting all fussy (not to mention losing control) over a situation I cannot control. She wants me to act in a manner fashion, proper and mature like a true knight would. I frowned at her but I told her she is right, because I haven't been following my own Knight Code as of lately.
Today I am following my Code closely and I have been mature to everyone I had to deal with today. :glare: I have court some time today, because my mom wants me there. I am all dressed nice and sharp.
Plus really, really, really tired. I will have a large water with a few ice cubes. Say thank-ya!
I was up most of last night actually drawing full scale pictures. Not just random doodles, but an actual art piece. I drew a crow, a self portrait, and one of a female changing to a wolf. I like the crow the most.
I am off to lay down until they call me for my court date with Moma.

For the first time in my adult life, I have been forbidden to leave the house. I told my husband that I needed a break and he told me no I wasn't going anywhere. I kinda feel like a child that has been sent to their room for bad behavior. My son did apologize to me, but I do not know what I am to do with my daughter. She called her ex step mother to come speak with her over the weekend, and she spent hours condemning me and told her that she should be selfish at 15. She said some harsh things about me, and my daughter just listened and took it all in. My son was there, he heard all of this and many negative things were said about him too. His dad told him that he was not to say anything to her or he would kick him out. I can not wait until my second son graduates and moves in with me so that I can be done with all of this.

Good Afternoon everyone. Am running really late today:blush:

May all be safe with the incoming snow and ice storms.

I'll have an iced herbal tea as it is 80F in Spideyland today.

For the first time in my adult life, I have been forbidden to leave the house. I told my husband that I needed a break and he told me no I wasn't going anywhere. I kinda feel like a child that has been sent to their room for bad behavior. My son did apologize to me, but I do not know what I am to do with my daughter. She called her ex step mother to come speak with her over the weekend, and she spent hours condemning me and told her that she should be selfish at 15. She said some harsh things about me, and my daughter just listened and took it all in. My son was there, he heard all of this and many negative things were said about him too. His dad told him that he was not to say anything to her or he would kick him out. I can not wait until my second son graduates and moves in with me so that I can be done with all of this. I am having problems sleeping, getting up at 4 am is taking it's toll on me. :glare::bat:

NOBODY can tell you that you cannot leave the house. WHAT THE HELL IS THIS? Sounds a lot like forcible confinement to me. Honey, I think you need to start checking out your legal options. I'm sorry, but what is happening is WRONG.

*Wulf stumbles into the Cantina. He lifts up his head and adjust his hat to rest more proper. He sits down at the bar.*

I will have a couple shots of Captain's Rum and a coke back. My brain is not working this morning. My mom is doing better, she was released yesterday and we have a few things to take care of on Thursday.
I am hanging in here. Poisonbat~Sai, I send all the prayers I can and good vibin' your way. I will keep you in mind when I pray.
How are you Sai Ladypain? Are you better? Almost asked if you were bedder, I got some sleep last night so I am a bit off kilter.
O.o Anyone I miss? Mess, gosh, miss... get it right brain! I am going to get the q-tip!
Maybe I should have a large coffee as well. I need to perk up so I can study.
*Sighs* I have class no matter if it snows or all hell breaks loose. I have online courses, but two weeks per unit. I am on my second unit in all my classes. Now, if the power does go out; I won't have class. When it snows on the northwestern coast all kind of weird situations happen.

No? I'll be having a Coke then.

Poisonbat, I really and honestly am sorry to hear about all your trouble. I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers. I hope everything works out for the better and soon.

I'll have a couple shots of the strongest stuff available. Rough times ahead for me.

Good Morning, Everyone!

Hope LadyPain and Hipmama are feeling better. I can't find my watch; it's a Fossil, silver & goldtone, bracelet style with a second hand(actually it's a third hand LOL)...anyway if you see it, just leave it at the bar.
Large hot coffee please and a cinnamon roll, please. Does anybody really know what time it is?<-------70s joke

I'm totally with LadyPain, nobody's your boss! The hell with them! And what may seem like the worst option, may also prove out to be the best for you. I wish you all the best, and don't let anyone or anything mess with your health!

Did he tell you what would happen if you left anyway? There is no way in hell anyone is telling me when, where, how, what or why. I am always open to suggestion, but not demands. You are not a child, you need to take control of your own life and tell him to take a flyin' leap off the nearest & highest cliff. If there is physical violence going on, you need to take steps to end it now.

Good morning to all. Happy news to report on Virginia:
it was not a stroke. Rather her body going into shock from a panic attack, fatigue and fasting for blood work. Since her short term memory is not good from the original stroke, her non responsiveness caused them to believe it might be another stroke. Add an anxious husband and visiting daughter to the situation. Virginia is home and well.

Thank you for all the prayers.

Kim, I'd start looking under beds and kitty hiding places for your watch:blush:

Pre-Wash... good one MsMod:wink2:

Tall herbal tea this morning, and off to bean bag central. Need to keep an eye out on Buckwheat and Pyro.. they appear to be after Madam again.

Walks into the Cantina and drops two fat mice, Hey Buckwheat and Pyro my snake Grim says hello.
Thank you all for your prayers and support. Spidey, I am so very glad that your friend is alright. Panic attacks are no fun at all. I woke again at 4, but took a shot of Nyquil and went back to sleep until 7. I have a screaming headache this morning, hope it goes away. I have made an appointment to see my doctor today, I don't know what he can do for me, but we will see. My mind is going places that it shouldn't. My husband asked me for the thousandth time to go look at his stupid car that he is painting. He ruined it. He was to put 2 coats of clear on it, he put 5. He asked he how it looked, I was honest with him. I told him it looked terrible. When I asked why he did not follow the directions, he told me that he doesn't always do what people tell him. DUH. He now has to sand the whole car again and start over. I was hoping that he would be done with this by now, but nope, he has plans on "fixing" it for this weekend. I am glad that I will have my sons with me. I am not picking up my daughter, I can not take one more drop of stress.

*Wulf comes strutting into the Cantina with a box in his left hand. He opens the box and drops it on the floor by Buckwheat and Pyro.* Some lovely full and plump dead mice for you two. Might find a rat, not sure what is in there.
*He sits down at the bar and orders a tall water* Doctor this afternoon to find out what is going on with me. It is a bit personal to expose here, so I will just say that I am sick. We will find out what is up this afternoon.
I got some homework to do; maybe I will do that instead of surfing the net. I also just released a second collection of poetry.

Good morning everyone, hope all is well with you. I went and spent time with my friend Lauren yesterday. It was good, we had lunch and talked. It is strange though, Lauren is just 18 but I don't look at her as a kid. She has become a fast friend of mine. Someone I can really talk to. I went to Yaps to pick her up and OMG things there are horrible. I wont even get into that. For the first time in weeks I see a candle at the end of my dark tunnel. Now just if some A$$hole doesn't blow it out,:glare: I should be fine. :bat:

Hi,

Have a Great Weekend, Everyone !!!

All good here. I had a most enjoyable phone chat with Srbo last night, a real gentleman, just as you would expect. He told me some stories of his experiences in Bosnia and we agreed that they're not really suitable for the SKMB, but I'm trying to convince him to translate his book into English as I really believe they should be available at a bookshop near you. The West should know about the atrocities that went on in a supposedly civilized country only a few short years ago IMO. Translate that book PLEASE, Srbo!

This weekend has been hard and wonderful. I finally put my foot down with my daughter and things are better. I had to give her a consequence for her behavior and it really got though to her. I have not had to use any type of punishment towards my children in years, but I had to make my stand with her. I took back the control she had over me and put her in her place. This has helped with my depression so much. It just took some figuring out on my part. Thank you all for bearing with me.:bat:

I am three days into quitting smoking so I think I'll have a cigarette here at the Cantina. Then I'm done here as well!

[poisonbat]

I am getting on with life, but I discovered last night that I am still quite fragile. The slightest harshness from anyone sends me into an anxiety attack. My son yelled at me last night, it was harsh and uncalled for. I accidentally scratched his arm while moving a trash can, I thought it no big deal. But when we got into the house he yelled at me that I should have been concerned and not lied about hurting him. I was puzzled as I had not said anything to him. I asked him do you think I hurt you on purpose? He told me that I should have been concerned, but how badly can you hurt someone with a plastic trash can? He is always over dramatic about any injury, even a small scratch from the kitten. It turns out that I made a tiny 1 inch scratch on his left arm. I said I was sorry that I had hurt him and went to bed. I guess this whole thing with my daughter has left me wounded and unable to take harshness of any kind. My son apologized to me this morning for yelling at me and told me that he over reacted. I lost a few apples last night. With so few they are very much so missed. :bat:

[SusanNorton]

Good Tuesday, all! I brought in some chili and smokin' hot cornbread with butter to keep everyone warm.

Yesterday my dear friend got fired from Yaps for complaining about how the animals were being treated. She was devastated to find out that they had already hired her replacement and had her train her before they let her go. She has been there for years and the only explanation that they gave her was that they needed someone who was " On board " with the new rules. Very sad indeed. My other friend who still works there has had her hours cut back so much that she is losing her place to live. They cut her from 30 hours back to 15 in an effort to starve her out. :glare: I don't know what is going to happen to these poor pitiful animals now that their only advocate is gone.:sad::bat:

remember it getting that cold. At least it won't last long.

He lifts up his head, his eyes and face barely visible from under his head. His face is dirty and his clothes; have seen better days. The only item on Sai Wulf that is taken care of his is guns.*

Hile Tet Mates! I am here to check in, haven't done so in a while. I wasn't my self for two days that caused emergency sleep and resting. I broke down and had a minor outburst. I do say I am getting better at having my breakdowns than say few months ago. I am doing well. I am busy writing stories for a website. There is no profit, but then again I am just writing for the sake of writing. Wanting to share my ideas, if you kennit. I also have my second poetry collection out, and the first of a twelve book set. It is big-big! I would hope so, there is fourteen-fifteen years put into it. Four years and it would be 19! Ha! HA, whopper!
Take care Tet Mates! I will have a large pale ale please!

Thanks I think I will have a piece of that bottom one, Is that apple? Yum. Hey Buckwheat and Pyro you look a bit sleepy today. It is always good to see you Wolf. My friend had surgery yesterday and I plan on seeing her today in the hospital. My house is going to be really full this weekend. We will be celebrating my second son's 18th birthday. I will pick him up and 2 of his friends tomorrow. There will be 9 of us going to play laser tag on Saturday night. I managed to convince his girlfriends mom to let her come. They are ultra strict but they said that they will bring her and drop her off and then come an pick her back up. This will be the first time they let her go on a "date" with my son. She is almost 18 herself. So I have something to look forward to this weekend. :smile2::bat:

Hi Y'all! It's FYBO weather here today. Think I'll borrow some of Brummie's Disaronno for my coffee and wrap up in a fuzzy blanket by the fire.... aaahhhh! that feels much better :)


I don't mind sharing the Disaronno with you Sundrop, as long as you're sharing the blanket and fire!!! It sure is cold here in London...with more snow forcast for tomorrow!:eek2:

[QUOTE=poisonbat;263096]Thanks I think I will have a piece of that bottom one, Is that apple? Yum.

Yes, it's apple, slightly caramelised. I'm glad you liked.

*Wulf walks into the Cantina in clean clothes smelling of creek and homemade honey soap. He smiles and rubs his chin.* My lady wants me to shave and I forgot to. Thank you Kim, it is good to be back. I am going through a lot right now. Facing old demons that I have always ran from. I know it is for the best, because once I get to the end I will be stronger for my mom, little sister and brother; my son, my wife and her children; most of all I will feel great about myself. I am staying clean and staying sober. I don't need that dark, nasty life any more. I have a beautiful marriage and a good road going for me.
*He nods his head and tips his hat to a few of the ladies and salutes to the gentlemen as he walks to the bar.* I would like a medium coffee please, and heavy on the cream and sugar. *He stands there drinking his coffee slowly*
Well, everyone have a good weekend and I am off to tackle my novel. I hopefully will have in print come Monday.

Good morning to everyone. I see fresh brewed coffee and tea at the counter, and thank you Gelata for the tasty treats.

Have a great weekend everyone. Be safe and be warm.

[Cowboy]

Good morning folks, hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.

[poisonbat]

I got the privilege of getting to babysit my grand-nephew yesterday. He warms the heart and spirit. He has grown so much, almost 5 month old now. He has a killer smile and laugh.
I know that I am going to have to face my daughter today, I know she is angry with me, but I do want to hug and kiss her. I am just worried about rejection. Oh well, I am really looking forward to this weekend so I will let that guide me through this day. I will be happy to just have my sons together for the weekend and have one heck of a laser tag event. :smile2::bat:

[Kim L.]

Good Morning, Everyone!
Happy Friday! Large hot coffee for me, please. Kim Possible will be going to work in my place, so I'll just hang out at bean bag central, reading. Company always welcome.

[Kim L.]

Good Morning, Everyone!
Hope everyone in Australia is well out of the reach of the bush fires. Looks like more rain in N Cali, so I'm staying right here with some hot coffee and a good book.

[Spideyman]

Good Monday to all. Been a Mother nature weekend for some- wild fires, mud slides, and now flooding. May all be safe. The cantina's doors are open to all who just want to relax and be with good friends.

Herbal tea in hand and heading for bean bag central.

Hi,

Good Whatever Everyone!!!

I hope everyone had an enjoyable weekend and has a great week in front of you. My thoughts go out to Australia and the victims of what looks like obscene mass murder.

(((((All those affected in Australia)))))

Large Irish coffee please, and a CFC por mi novia.

Morning all! Sun is shinin , birds singin Good start for a monday. Take care all.

[poisonbat]

Good morning everyone! What a wonderful weekend. The best that I can remember for a long time. We laser tagged our butts off. Only lost 1 game out of 7. I am too old to do something like that very often though. I think I pulled every muscle in my legs and back, :eek2: but oh it was so very worth it:love: When I took my son and his friends home yesterday, I got to see my daughter. I was super nervous when I walked up to her bedroom door, but she jumped up off of her bed and hugged and kissed me. I thought I was gonna drop to my knees and cry. But I just held on to her and took in the love she gave me. The end of a terrible ordeal. She showed me pictures of her new dress she wore to the dance that her grandma made, and was just lovely to me. I cry while I write this, tears of joy and relief I guess.
Many prayers go out to those suffering in Australia, being from So. Cal. I can really relate to the horrors of wild fires. (((((Australia))))) :bat:

I'm so glad to hear this! It's horrible when a mother and daughter aren't getting along. Good, good news, poisonbat. :love:

[mstay]

It's snowing here! A lot!!! So I'll take a hot chocolate, and my quilt, and head over to the beanbags to read.

I brought peanut butter cookies to share. Enjoy!

Have a great week everyone.:biggrin2:

[LadyPain]

*stays away from the dish of peanut butter cookies and snoops around in the cupboards until she finds a package of gingersnap cookies*

Hey folks, I hope you are all having a good day. I'm battling a cold, but at least it is JUST that.

I think I will just go out onto the patio and sit in the fresh air. Sunshine today!

[Luli]

Hello everybody! I wish you all a great week! I've been away for a while, but I'm back! Currently reading The Talisman, I'm totally hooked! So I'll be sitting in a corner and read for a while! A large Ice Tea for me, please! :)

[JRLauer]

Hello everyone. I don't drop by the cantina as much as I'd like to, but I wanted to wish everyone a good morning and I hope you all have a good week.

[Cowboy]

Good morning folks!

Red Bull please?

[LadyPain]

Good morning folks!

Red Bull please?

*slides a Red Bull over to Cowboy*

Good morning everyone. I couldn't sleep so I decided to get up at (ICK) 6am. What a rude time of the morning! I think I'll take a cup of tea and curl up in one of the chairs in the corner.

[JohnDalglish]

Hi,

Good Whatever Everyone!!!

Well, the world seems to have moved on again this morning, doesn't it? I feel like I flipped into the Territories in my sleep, bringing just my Ludditism LOL.

I'm sure I'll make heads and tails out of it sometime soon.

((((((Australia))))))

(((((All in need or not)))))))

VERY large Irish coffee please and a CFC por mi novia.

Long days and pleasant nights

[poisonbat]

I will have to take a good hard look around the board for awhile, someone has gone and moved the furniture around on me while I was sleeping. :glare: Oh well, goes with the rest of my morning. My son left his back pack at home and called me to bring it to him this morning. Now mind you his school is about 20 miles away, and it is prime time rush hour. Let's just say I wasn't a happy mom this morning. Almost 20 and can't remember his homework, darn kid. :smile2: So very cold this morning. Before I could go anywhere I had to thaw out my car. The door was frozen solid, had ice all over the windshield, not fun for this So. Cal girl. It is 30 degrees here this morning :eek2: Way to cold for my thin blood. I don't know how you all do it. Props to you all! I will take a large hot green tea and be huddled by the fire. :bat:

[Spideyman]

Good morning to all. Brain spinning a little from the changes. Some are really fun.

A quick grab of herbal tea and off to help out Virginia today. I'll catch all late in evening.

Good thoughts to all in Australia.

Good Morning, Everyone!
Happy Wednesday!

Large hot coffee please and one of the above (should be cinnamon rolls). Plenty for everyone--they never run out! If you're wondering how I can be so cheerful in the morning, the reason is that I'm writing this at 8:45 pm Left Coast time.

Good Wednesday to all.

Brought in some pizzas- all varieties- to brighten the mood.
