Sorry for reaching back for this one, but I remembered you and John had replied and I never responded. I don't get over your way in Schaumburg anymore (used to always be over at Barrington and Bode but now never get past Roselle).

Schaumburg to McHenry is quite a haul, too. This will be my last summer having to stop over in Schaumburg as DD graduates from her Christian school and will be going to public school in Naperville next year.

No problem, I've been MIA since last week. Too busy to post. We've been in Schaumburg since '72' still had farms all around us. Are you referring to the Christian school on Roselle Rd.? We need to set a date for this summer for a minni meet, somewhere half way for whoever. I'll see if Cheryl can't coortinate a date. What kind of work do you do, that requires you to travel?

 

[mousehouseman]

Is anyone else planning to be down here this summer?

You already know Cheryl and I will be.

How could you object to a Mickey tattoo? Just can't be done (when you have the DISease)

She didn't mention the next one I got was of Mickey Mouse. I was having my old man crisis.

I was trying to bridge the gap between answering and not having to answer to the consequences for answering...

... with LISA that is...

Julie I am so sorry your mother died so young. That is very sad. But you're right...there is a little child in all of us & that is exactly how I felt when I got the news yesterday. I curled up in a little ball & cried for my Mommy. My mother has had problems with learning, mental illness, substance abuse, etc. & she was not an easy mother to have, but yet she was still my Mom & there was always hope that some day she would see the light & be the mother I always wanted her to be. Even though that hope was unrealistic, it was competely gone yesterday & that is what hurt the most. Sorry I don't mean to be so maudlin, but you hit the nail on the head with your words of wisdom. Thank you so much!

Love to you, Diane . . .

We are coming down for a long weekend July 19th and leaving 22nd. Staying at Pop. I wanted to spend my birthday at the Happiest Place on Earth! Chef Mickey's! Of course July maybe a little too hot.

My "baby" is 10 today . . . thanks for all the birthday wishes. In a bit I will pick her up with 6 of her friends and take them all for manicures/pedicures . . . then back to the apartment for pizza and cake.

Yes, the one on Roselle between Schaumburg Rd. and Higgins. Both of my boys went to school there; my oldest through 4th grade before we moved to Bolingbrook.

Tell Cheryl we're waiting on her. Lunch/dinner, whatever would be fine and the Schaumburg area would work for me.

I am a product manager for the large (but shrinking daily )telecommunications company headquartered in Schaumburg.

, to dear allshookup...., i'm so sorry for your

lost. . your wonderful insigts were a collection of some
very special memories. & we benefited from your reflections. thank you.

. [ iam still mising my mother's lil' ways]

...* i can't think of a more cherish gift you gave, then all the ways
you expressed your . i know, they would been like a teddy
bear to me. i can imagined how proud/grateful she was, having your
thoughts with her.

prayers, for you & your family.


* & one of my disney's wishes.....that she will always be
in your hearts...baking cookies and wiping your away.

mothers/ , god bless ~ everyone, i don't think there anything
more heart warming then when a mother holds her child for the first
time. * this is what we learned in critcal newborn care....no matter
how tough the struggles....having mothers hold their child...made
them stronger.


a long time ago...my older brother was in a terrible motor cycle wreck..
at the hospital...he was asking for? "mom'....she didn't want to see him
[ you cannot imagined the shape he was in]....he was after all ,"her
baby"...but she could hear him crying out...how brave, she was to give
him the "support' he needed...and unbelievable recovered.

parents...are people too. if one was to evualte..most would fall short
of expectations..however, when one listens and take time to "see"
all the things they overcame..then the real story is told.

mental health?...here's a shocker...we all have mental health...and
like physical heath, problems are sure to come, so are the emotional
ones... ,there are times when my kids driving me nutso!

while iam always seeking... , there are things that really
take me down..however, i didn't realized it, they also enriched my
life....in ways i would never chosen for myself...reading your story made
me take pause and appricated the good lil'things iam sharing with my
family. you are indeeds, a special person & brave.

 

[Lil' Grumpy]

cute . i just what our pets do for our family
well being.

 

[geffric]

well said Lil' Grumpy you have a great way with words..

 

[mousehouseman]

Yep that's my Cheryl, keep after her, maybe she'll listen to someone else, lord knows after 39 years she certainly isn't listening to me.

Oh Cheryl, I know you'll read this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
