Guest guest Posted September 9, 2002 Report Share Posted September 9, 2002 Dawn, You need to quit apologizing for venting (NOT whining) to us. If you can't vent to us, who in the world can you vent to??? What is happening to you is wrong, wrong, wrong.......and you can't let them get away with it. Hold your ground, you big chicken, and call the news station and the news paper and everything!! You are like me though and you probably don't like to rock the boat so you let people walk all over you. Just say, NO MORE. I finally did and I am much happier..... : ) Call me anytime girl and I will call you right back so you don't have to have the charges.

Guest guest Posted September 9, 2002 Report Share Posted September 9, 2002 Thanks, . I know it's not the end of the world. Just feels like it when you don't know where your next dollar's coming from, you know?? I certainly understand your fears when you think of what would ever happen should something happen to your hubby. I too think of that quite often, actually. Scary thought.

Guest guest Posted September 9, 2002 Report Share Posted September 9, 2002 Thanks, Lynn. I'm going to read this email a bit more in depth tomorrow as I'm totally brain-dead tonight. Amazing how crying for 5 hours zaps all your energy. LOL. Maybe you can help me put together this appeal, like you did the last? Perhaps we could brain-storm together. I'm going to do lots of research on-line tomorrow to see what I can come up with and I'll let you know.

Guest guest Posted October 11, 2002 Report Share Posted October 11, 2002 Does California even have a "cold of winter"??? LOL. Sorry...couldn't resist. :oP YEEEEESSSSSS! It was down to 65 degrees last week. Almost had to put a jacket on!!! hehehe. Last winter we were down to 38 degrees. I am hoping it will snow one year. I love it though because we get snow in the hills behind us and our grass is green, and I can see the mountains with their snowcaps from our green back yard. It is a beautiful thing. No snow to shovel, no cars to plug in, no windows to scrape, no blue toes, no mittens, blah, blah, blah....... Zanna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
