hello..looks like you are all ready for fall while i am srill hanging onto summer..the year is whizzing by~~~~ perseverance not luck...you are agile in that department

Perseverance I am like a dog with a bone, I just keep chewy until I get what I want. My family is doing good, thank you. I have been busy in RL, we have been painting the interior of the house, so I took advantage and sorted everything before its put back. Plus while everything was out i shampooed carpets. We have been working since July 27. I love having my own shampooer. I have been planning to shampoo the interior of our cars too. So I got one done, 2 days ago. I have one more to go, thankfully its smaller. I thought do it before it gets cold, and time is right its getting cooler than 90F. Plus I am crocheting again, since hand surgeries for both hands. Doing an afghan, something not to big. Last huge project was for a queen size bed that took 6 months of crocheting minimum 3 hours a night. I think I just made myself dizzy, haha Just been doing a lot lately.

i think you should make a good recovery if it sisn take. i have switched between two catagories these two months...i never did check my abb==ccounts i just trust it is right hahahha hope yours works out n you get your PRIZE as well.

i know luck has nothing to do without the due diligence of clicking like mad!

have you been able to get together with your sons recently?? i have a riend who has had her youngest now out into his own apartment with a friend..he is in his twenties but here it is getting tougher than ever to make it on your own...we all should move from this central hub!!! anyways she misses him like mad!!!

Life has its little quirks

Speaking of quirky behavior how you doing joker?

BHH got tired of me clicking like a crazy stocker and gave me , which I needed.

We went last week to Houston to see younger son and his wife, i wish i could see older son and his wife with my first grand baby. But they are being super cautious for the daughter, and right now keeping her safe is more important. we video chat a couple times a week. I miss my oldder and younger sons like crazy, but middle son is here

wow i just lost my whole letter of a comment to you ...guess someone thought it was tmi which i usually hold back on this site!!

love having friends of the girls highschool times friendscome and go here as they azll call me MOM..:):) i love them all My eldest is here too as it is medically necessary at this moment. Her wonderful boyfriend of five years now lives here as well and is a great help..respectful and prorective...something you once said about your bouys as well!!! very nice feeling isnt it~~~

what LITTLE quirks all i see are big once dammit!!..hey look i am going to try n remember now to use capitols on all names!!! sorry it has taken me so long to do it :) how are you all doing...

Subeta Anniversary September 17th

I wonder if there will be anything tomorrow.

Its a wonderful feeling as sometimes hubby travels to Egypt without me, so I have middle son here. My other 2 sons are always on the phone, or video chatting. So I have my guys always looking out for me, and do sweet things. Like my younger son, knows I have always been an Elvis fan. So at his wedding he picked an Elvis song that was so sweet, and I will never listen to it again without thinking of our dance together.

:') Oh , that bit about the Elvis song is so sweet!

:) Okay, so... I have a question for the longer term members. I've been a member for a long time, but my memory is...not always that great? So I was wondering, wasn't there a time before avatars? Like, there was only pets? I honestly can't remember if the avatars happened not long after I joined. Or if it was just such a shock/ difference when I left Neopets (wow, I actually had to think a sec to remember the name..but it's almost 2am so i give myself a pass...).

I know I haven't Verbally popped in in a bit, but I hope you all are doing well and having a good day! Bear Hug! <3

[avatar=Nanaki] welcome to the best gtoup of close knit friends on site heehee..we laugh together and support each other through the fun times and the bad. we all have something we love to do and share that too...sounds like you do all kinds of stuff..i know we have a few crocheters in the group..keeps us outta trouble :P #;laurs lets welcome Nanaki to the group!

..yes songs will do that n last forever in our hearts..like you remember where you were and what you were doing hahah lots of my songs remind me highschool days :):) whoots

Welcome Glad to have another bear :)

Oh I see your ahead of me, in accepting request from . Welcome to the lairbears! I will smail some threads that are just related to our group. I run the birthday date thread, which I will ping you from.

So true, certain songs bring me back to certain events throughout my life.

All my sons have sweet moments, they always remind me about the special moments I have with each one.

: Welcome to our group! My name is Frieda and I'm small, but that's OK, because everybody here is very loving and accepting of me and my fuzziness. I love to draw, write, play music and eat cookies. I've also been known to take things apart, but that's a very long story. I hope to see you around a lot. Make sure you get on the Birthday List. Do you have any cookies?

I just realized I feeling bummed. Not really bad bummed, just general bummedness with the realization that I got very little done this year as far as running my home, getting organized and keeping up. I know that this is an extraordinary year for everybody, but I feel it's important to acknowledge these negative feelings so that I can work out a plan for dealing with the situation. I really have no control over fires, floods, hurricanes, my kidney stones or Weldon's persistent flatulence that he pathologically denies. But I do have control over how I deal with being bummed. I'm increasing my whiskey intake. No, I'm not going to do that! But I am not going to get mad about it. Getting mad only makes me angry, which leads to avoidance of the situation, which is the last thing I need to do is run away from my emotions. How about you? How are you feeling? Let me encourage you during these tough times. Hang in there, because the saying is "And It Came To Pass..." it never says, "And It Came To Stay..." I love you all my Bears!

I don't have a flatulence problem.

I rest my case.

hey hey hey.. ...another new member to our lair...welcome our wonderful fun group!! He is a battler here!
