Eric, i totally agree with you.  All it does is stir up trouble when names are named along with obvious statements of anger. They should be private as they only hurt this site. I for one, would be in a world of hurt if anything happened to this site. I have been comforted I have been help I have been taught I have been brought back to a holness that I have lost. We don't need to lose that type of thing. There are means already established within the site to handle things like this without making it a giant war

What's done is done, and I've said what needed to be said about it.

I'd rather not give out any more reminders or delete comments - be mindful of what you post, please. 

Felicity, Come over to the table at the lounge, Your purple chair is ready and I bought you a  hollowed out pillow for your comfort......  Sounds like u need it.. Busy day you had.. 

We'll just have a heart to heart talk and wait for the others to come.. 

Has anyone heard from JamieMom?

Not since her last post, I was thinking about the wee guy when reading about Shawnes skin issue. Hopefully when she sees your post she will be in touch

Maybe we should send her a private message????? That way she will be notified quickly--As the holidays are upon us, she is busy with Our little adopted nephew and trying as hard as she can to make his first Christmas a happy one for all to enjoy..  I am sure that she is a busy mom than the normal mom is, and I can only feel the stress she is  going through-but knowing.. That is the hard part for us here.. Jamie cant talk to us.. Poor little guy only knows pain from his birth.. Let us pray that this up-coming operation works for him.. M.

Hi Marcie, JamieMom seems to post around the weekend, I would say she keeps an eye on the forum and will she the thoughts and good wishes.

Well, then John, we will keep it at that.. You keep track well my friend... Now where is our Felicity???????????  Hope every day is a major improvement for her.. She had a tough time this turn .......... :-( 

Well Robert, How do u like the color and decorations of the men's lounge?  I decided on a nice color of black, kept the ivory trip, and got some nice lighting fixtures of antqite (sp)style all around.. The stalls are on the other side, along with the sinks. you  now have some flowering plants, of off white with the green leaves.. And lounge chairs..  And a nice book shelf from old London decore' of interesting books that curves around the chairs. A calming music to read by.  The triple French doors have a nice linen pulled together in the middle straps not just for privacy-but to let the garden views through along with the natural lights. The flooring is a  light ivory marble that shines..........  Can you all picture this??????  Amazing huh???? So much better than the royal red.. I agree with you guys-that was to bright.. this is so Man cave with style.. I AM DONE WITH PAINTING.. Besides Bubbles helped!!!!!!!!! :-)

Robert, here it is:  Your a gentleman, kind person. (your wife is so lucky) bla ba bla.. This is far as I will go. here..... But you won!! You are "Santa" !!!   How do you like the men's lounge?  Soft and manly yet so neat huh?

I decided to take a nice bath tonight, with the lights low,  a nice cup of tea, and when I put on the jets in the tub, I blew a fuse !  So, I sat in the dark-(than God for the little green light on my power tooth brush) :-) But that was O.K.  :-{]  When I got out, no other lights could be turned on.. AS I had to change Nellies dress, I yelled for help--My goodness such a fuss my merry men made on that one.. "MOM!! - Marcie!! why did u do that? You KNOW better bla bla"  Told them if it is to much work to fix the fuse, bring in the flash lights and watch. LIGHTS ON!! :-) And I haven't heard a word after that.. Just have to bring 'ol Nellie in the picture and I get a fast response without questions.. :-)  They are rather afraid of my Nellie..  I don't think that they like her either????? IF I say that Nellie is not feeling well, I am treated like a queen!!!!!  HEY!! Just thought of something!! Anything goes wrong, I can blame it on Nellie-they can discuss it with her right?  Car accidents, (well u see officer, Nellie______________" "No officer I was not on the phone" (I operate the computer better than the phone-which is for emegancies only according to Tom-I don't have the nice phones like you all) --so why bother with that "jitter-bug" phone??????? Ya, that's what I got.. and trust me it is an up-grade!! :-(  ------------  And so, Dear Santa, I raise a glass of beer to you at the "Pub" M.. 

Marcie thank you for the kind words especially the bla bla bla . Lol . I think Tom and the boys are also lucky . The lounge is looking great the colors are better not so bright now . Nice to be able to see out to the garden when relaxing in the lounge chairs . The light fixtures are nice hope they are LED the will be cheaper to operate that way  . What else would you expect an electrician to say right . Haha . The flooring is perfect with the marble and even easy to clean in case of an accident ! :-D . Just one more thing that we could maybe use in the lounge ... How bout a Tap so we don't have to keep running back n forth to the offy for a pint ? (Gotta stay hydrated right ?) Sounds like you would have made a good apprentice for me since you know about fuses and breakers already ! Keep the Nellie card handy and use it more often keep them all jumping . And there was always a Mr. n Mrs. Santa lets just keep it that way ok ?   :-)

Maybe we should send her a private message????? 

While I understand the concern, some people may not appreciate being contacted privately as a check-in. We're close to the holidays, so I would imagine she may be busy.  I'm sure she'll update us when she's ready and available. 

Eric, your correct. We have the lounge.. :-) And that is where I will stay..

Robert, Don't know much about fuses, I just knock them out, and holler for help-- I still don't why it blew, I did nothing than the normal.. IF I operate the heater (which I didn't) then I know a fuse will go.. What ever. Nellie did it.. --- Ya, the bla bla bla-makes it more interesting reading between the lines huh? You get it right???? Down to 40 degrees but windy-so not as nice as yesterday.. Getting my hair cut next week-- (like u really care huh) :-) 2 inches off.. Should get snow and ice for Christmas.. Bumper cars !!! But staying home with my family--And a nice fire... My younger son age 41 will do the cooking. He is a chef.. (I was his first teacher- -then he went to school-but didn't finish-but got 2 years in) 

Speaking of the Nellie card---I have the "get out of jail free" card laminated, from the monoply game in my wallet. :-) I tried it once and the cop didn't laugh--smiled a bit.. He was expecting my drivers licence.. I just said "whops" 

Hi my "z" Home is where your long roots are........... But I could not live in the flat lands!! As beautiful they are to those that live there.. But my many trips to upper Ohio? flat, and they just kinda stay put within their small communities.. I could not live in the city either.. Love my nature all around me.. Yes, we all have our tight knit areas in New England.. I have lived in some that think that feel their town is better.. but to me that is insurecure on their part.... Their problem......  (I live 20 minutes from Springfield , Mass -the capital of Mass & 20 minutes from Hartford - the capital of Ct.) 1-1/2 hours from Boston and New York.  Now upper New England?????  Beautiful, simple lovely people.. They have the 'ol pot belly stove going and yes the checkers out and old men chatting away of their life of the olden days..  Have a little chat with them--u get the Ahhhh yepppppppppppp.. Sorta of the gas station/grocery/clothes store..and the old fashion food booths.  No Malls........  We go up there once in a while to catch the simple life of ease... Just get on Rt. 91 north and your in the deep of it within 45 minutes..... We have spent some vacations up there Vt. N.H. There is no great T.V. / phone recptions up there..  So you  just don't get involved with the news etc.  I have close contact with the city life and the very quiet life.. I am in the middle.. I love my tiny town-as you can see --take a drive and through the hills and mountian's, another town pops up.. Always a church steeple with bells ringing.. Post card thing...... Sure not a boring place to live-Nature has its own surprises.. "z" your in a nice area that u can get away into such also don't you?  The desert is to hot for me, no color that I a used to.  But such a different world also- That area has its own history--or creation from the ice age.. I have been to the Indians villages.. their culture is - well?? just stays in my mind-- their roots..... interesting.. America has so much to offer, if one takes the time to do the traveling by car........  don't forget the vomit bag or coffee can !!!!!!!!!! As our stomas really don't care where we take them right?????? :-) 

Hey, you're living in the right place for you. And , surprise, the same goes for each of us. Home is where the heart is.

Personally,  I live in Baltimore.  Even though it has gotten bad press, we made it home.

I thought that home was where the colon is that we left

My colon went to the Medical School--- along with my (busted Gal Bladder last year) I will stay where my heart is -- With my family... :-) MY HOME..  If I can stay away from anything medical-HOSPITALS I am happy.. Even tho, I am a "wall flower" --- plugged into wall 3 x a week, 3 hours each, and drag my I.V. pole (which I call "hope" ) -for my walks-If that is the way it is? So be it--I don't cry anymore on my way in tho- so that is an improvement :-) I have plans of getting rid of that Club Med (infusions) soon.. Been 3 years.. I just got hit very hard and fast.. I will make it work... Just don't give up anyone that is struggling here..... 

I like Baltimore, I have driven by it on Rt. 95. Yes, there is much oil containers, but u see that with every shore line state.. Got them all lined up on the west side into New Your city.. By Yale U.. Just have to get off the  major highway and see for yourself.. Then u see the beauty that every state has to offer.. What bad news for Baltimore? 

Barb. Got a echo ???????? 'cause that area is hollow.............. :-)

Not only an echo but I gave up sky diving cause I make whistling noises on the way down
