RE: Two pennies worth

Yes, there are two sides to every story, and wouldn't it be nice to hear that other side? Fair's fair! I enjoy the blogs most of the time but definitely do not see them as a new beginning and/or an end to a grief stricken past....mostly because my past was quite pleasant.

RE: Two pennies worth

Although perhaps airing one's soiled linens in public isn't such a bad thing. Sometimes we need a reminder and warning. It's always sad to see someone get hurt.

RE: Two pennies worth

Crikey, am most grateful that I have never felt the need to write about anything personal on here....good or bad! I'm just not that brave.

RE: Another Year Older

Happy Birthday, Willow! A friend once told me that birthdays are a celebration of life and a new "birth year" that will include change, challenges and excitement....January 1 shouldn't always be the start of a new year. Enjoy your special day!

RE: Getting in the mood

Neither, elegs....I'm agreeing with you and adding some extra input....so to say.

RE: Getting in the mood

Anyone lifting their brows should try it before dismissing it. it's hard work!)

Yes, it is....but so-o-o-o rewarding.

RE: Death of conversation

Well, I for one do not like being too connected. My phone stays at home during the day when I'm at work and when I go shopping. If there's an emergency during the work week, people have my work number. If there's an emergency while I'm out shopping, they leave a message which I'll get when I get home. As I intensely dislike shopping, I'm never gone more than two hours at a stretch. If people who live near me a) text or b) email me to have a conversation, I keep it a) short or b) don't reply. If we can't get together, pick up the phone and call me. On the weekend, we were dining out. There was a young couple next to us working their phones like there was no tomorrow. Zero conversation except when the waiter brought their meals and they said "thank you". They continued to work their phones as they ate their meals. How sad is that?

RE: BAD winter coming up?

A couple of winters ago when we had the Polar Vortex (who comes up with these names?), there were quite a few mornings when it was -45C on the walk to work. Talk about fresh air!!

RE: BAD winter coming up?

Dog boots have become very popular in most parts of North America. Most dogs hate them,but they do protect their paws. I believe they were 'invented' by someone who raced the Iditarod. I will email you the brand name.

RE: BAD winter coming up?

For you, proper winter outerwear including boots with rubber soles. Winter tires for your car. Coat and boots for the dog. she's short hair so needs the extra warmth and waterproofing and the boots will protect her paws from salt/grit on the sidewalks and streets. Forget about the dogsled....she'll be too interested in checking to see whose been around in her absence to bother with much else!

RE: Blindsided By Life

A very personal blog. Perhaps what's happenend is a blessing in disguise? You should travel to Ireland and spend time together...preferably longer than two weeks. Dreams are wonderful, but sometimes we allow them to deceive us. Hope everything works out as you have dreamt.

RE: "IN HEAVEN".. "THERE IS NO BEER"

Dang! They lied to me!!!

RE: Happy Birthday Elegsabiff

Elegs! Hope you have a wonderful day! Did you receive the wine and ONG I couriered to you?

RE: A good day in Canada...

ha ha ha No disappointment at all! Shame you weren't allowed to vote, eh? Another little gem from the Harper Regime. I did wonder if Gretzky voted though????

RE: "THE IN CROWD"..(2)

"I am the watcher"

sounds way too paranoid. Anyway, have fun!

RE: It's OFFICIAL

why thank you, sands.

RE: It's OFFICIAL

Those are our photos. Piece, Fraya and I are triplets....although not born on the same day.

RE: "THE IN CROWD"..(2)

Huh??? I need a drink.

RE: It's OFFICIAL

My oooh-la-la comment was for the dress.

RE: It's OFFICIAL

oooh-la-la!!

RE: It's OFFICIAL

Sands, not all people are unhappy when a divorce is finalized. I think it's very understandable and am very happy that you're happy. Group ! New beginnings are always so exciting and energizing!

RE: It's OFFICIAL

I don't buy magazines, but I'll check online for a bridesmaid dress. Poor Sands!

RE: It's OFFICIAL

RE: It's OFFICIAL

Well, Sands, it's been an adventure! This is the beginning of the rest of your life as they say. I'm not much of a baseball fan...at least to watch it. Love playing the game though. There's a lot of excitement here over the Blue Jays....they sure know how to keep their fans in suspense!! And yes, the stockmarkets have been 'happy' this week!
to you!

RE: I miss Alec :sigh:

Charming IS fun, but I don't like being with a man who has a 'hareem' of women on the side. ewwwwww!

RE: I miss Alec :sigh:

Ok so, that does happen.

RE: I miss Alec :sigh:

sounds as though he still 'likes' you.

RE: "COMING ATTRACTIONS"

That's good then. Just wondering because you've been talking about it for awhile now. (they don't have an icon for 'kicking it to the curb')

RE: I miss Alec :sigh:

what's SDR?

RE: "COMING ATTRACTIONS"

Nam, are you sure you're not angrier with yourself for being duped? I would if it were me.
