Enjoyed reading

The Fisherman has been busy blowing off steam, enjoyed reading his post even though I could not understand more than a fraction of it.

reading difficult

 

I still find reading difficult as I have a short attention span since getting off that crap.  If  I read a large amount, I usually can't remember much of it.  My concentration is definitely affected.  Very frustrating !

Difficult moment

I can imagine that this afternoon must have been a difficult moment for you.

[TryinginFL]

Moment saddened

 

Yes, the last moment saddened me...  I wanted to hug him, but didn't!  He said he had learned much from me as well - regarding getting off this drug, dealing with the death of a child and my trying to help others on the forum as well as the friendships I have gained here - although cyber, they are no less important.  It gave me a sense of being useful...

saddened heart

 

I have a saddened heart because I have been so busy I can't spend time with my freinds on 'drop a word'.

 

Have a good day all. Another busy one.

[TryinginFL]

heart breaks

 

My heart breaks when I think of losing my friends!

 

Good morning, FH!  It's so good to hear from you - you have been missed!

[FiveNotions]

breaks wind ...

 

 

sorry, a bit "off color," but that's the first thing that popped into my addled brain ... a shrink would have a field day with this thread ... word associations ... weird associations .... from the weirdest bested friends I've ever had !! 

 

love you all !!

[TryinginFL]

wind blows

 

The winters down here are not too bad but when the wind blows, it is unbearable!

 

So good to hear from you, FN!  

[gail]

Blows softly

As I was walking by, a man looks at me and blows softly a kiss into my direction!

[TryinginFL]

softly whisper

 

Wow - lucky you, Gail!  Did he softly whisper to you as well?

[gail]

Whisper gently

Not only does he whisper gently, he is the one! Getting married in twenty years, that will make me, let's see, 25+20= 45.

Will you come to my third wedding? Just want to equate you in numbers of marriages!♥♥

[TryinginFL]

gently disengaged

 

Wow!  Well, Gail, I have gently disengaged myself from that institution after the third one, but will be happy to attend yours if I am still around!  (20 yrs is a long time! ) I wish you the best - at least you aren't rushing into anything!!
 

[gail]

Disengaged from

After regaining my senses, I disengaged from this proposition of marriage. I can see that I was rushing into something that could have been disastrous!

So, sorry to say, Liz, no need to prepare for anything. Maid of honor will be for a later time.

And how was your day? I see that DWC has deserted up, hope you come back Renee!

[TryinginFL]

from experience

 

Oh, dear Gail!  I'm so happy that you are not jumping into anything.  I learned from experience and hope that your future prospects will be more to your liking!

 

Went out to lunch with a friend today - a rare thing, but enjoyable!  Tried a new restaurant - food excellent!

 

I'm worried about Renee as I know she was in a great deal of pain... 

[gail]

Experience with

Tell me, what food have you made an experience with today?

Renee, thinking of you.

Liz, off for the night, am I glad of my decision! No place in bed for anyone, anyway my goal is to get better and nothing else. ♥

[TryinginFL]

with intelligence

 

Your thoughts have been with intelligence and truth - you are what is most important!

I agree - the other side of my king size bed is taken up with 2 dogs!!!

 

(I weighed myself today and will not again for 2 weeks - that's what I get for eating a whole cake in 4 days! )

 

 

Buenas noches, mi amiga!

squared off

 

The two squared off before the fight began...

 

Hey, TM - where have you been?

[FiveNotions]

off base ...

 

 

good morning friends ... that was one very short engagement, Gail ... only slightly shorter than my (1) marriage ... rather than feel like my double bed was empty, I down-sized to a single (sheets are easier to change, too) ... 

 

(Has ShadyLady stopped in recently? Carleeta? Wagtail? KathyMS?)

[TryinginFL]

base coat

 

My bathroom ceiling needs to be painted, but I understand that it needs a special base coat.

[gail]

Coat hanger

Went shopping, as I was putting my jacket on a coat hanger, guess what? The neighbor knocks on my door, hurried to pick up phone, as though I was talking to someone. Opened the door, he said he will be back!

Now, what am I going to do? FN, I am shipping him to you! It reminds me why I changed my mind about marrying the other guy!

No news from the girls. Miss them.

[TryinginFL]

hanger falling

 

Oh, Gail - you almost have to sneak in and out!  At least you didn't have to deal with your hanger falling!  That is indeed sad...   I don't think FN will want him either!

 

I miss the gals too - sure wish they would stop back!

[gail]

Falling apart

Oh Liz, I hear the envy here, so I will send him to you!

I would not do that, you would be falling apart in a short time!

Coffee and cookies for me later, what about you?

[TryinginFL]

apart from

 

Oh, Gail, please!  So happy you won't send him here!  I have actually decided that I don't have time for a man in my life~ guess I just like to do my own thing these days!

 

BS and church this afternoon and possibly Chinese food afterward..  Apart from that, have lots of shows on my DVR to watch as well as The Good Witch which is on at 8.  (Witch which? )

 

Have fun with your coffee and cookies time!

[gail]

From what

I took my courage with both hands and paid him a five minute visit, no more. Explaining once again that I was not feeling social. From what I said very politely, if he repeats that, I will have to be rude and I hate this!

On a lighter note, renewed my wardrobe this morning, at a thrift shop of course. Also bought face cream and eye cream(not at a thrift shop).
A lot of shows for me also tonite, if my eyes don't shut off!

We don't have time for men Liz, where would they fit in our schedule?
Will rethink that in twenty years perhaps.♥♥♥

[TryinginFL]

what gives

 

 

Good for you, Gail!  Sounds like you had fun today making new purchases!   Something new for this afternoon?

 

Too bad you actually had to confront that guy, what gives with that?  Hopefully your last time...

 

If I should wish to consider having a man in 20 years, all I can say is Bravo for Me!!!

[gail]

Gives me

Yes this situation gives me the creeps! Had conversation with Denis, my buddy, and he gives me some advice about this.

Nothing new for this afternoon, plain old clothes. Jeans and sweater as usual. But tomorrow is Palm Sunday and I will wear something special for the occasion! This day has a meaning for me!♥

[DoneWithCrap]

me too

 

My dogs and I have been sleeping most of this week. I finally got an antibiotic and prednisone. I'm finally feeling better.

 

Brain isn't working well enough to come up with a sentence with "me too"

 

Back to sleep if I can. Prednisone and sleep don't mix for me. Watched movies till 5AM then my youngest daughter woke me at 7:20 to make fudge.

[fishinghat]

too much

 

Gail's neighbor is just 'too much'. But I have an idea Gail. Send him down to me. Him and I can have a 'detailed discussion' about manners.

[TryinginFL]

much more

 

I'm sure you can't take much more of that, Gail!  Happy that you had a good afternoon - advice and all!

 

Renee, so glad to hear that you're getting better - we've missed you, girl!

 

Welcome, FH - you must have been very busy lately - good to see you back!
