Did you just use the word y'all?

I love the people of the south.....

Yep! I say that all the time! True southern girl here!

 

[jordanyosh]

Oh how I wash it was a TR... I can't wait for this trip...


Only thing that would make it better is if you were going to be there...

Terry would have someone to fart with...

If Terry and I were at WDW together and had gas...instead of selling ponchos, stores would be selling hazmat suits.

My condolences go out to your family Jordy, Derek and Wendy.

At least you're able to remember the good times at a time like this? That's very good.

When my grandmother passed away, my family took it really hard. She passed just 2 months before 2 of my cousins were born. I kept asking why God didn't let her stay to see her grandchildren. It was really hard on me.

600 at the funeral?? Your uncle was a popular man! Even with a big family!

I have to admit that I have a soft soft for accents

It's always hard when a family member dies. Ashlyn won't really remember my uncle....

but he's in a better place

Thanks...

I just saw your ticker....congrats on the baby

Thanks, Jordan! I swear, this kiddo on the way and my son are what's keeping me going after the loss of my mom. I'm lucky in that some of our firsts without her will be firsts with the new baby, so I'm trying to stay positive.

I caught that line about you livening up the trip report by farting. You know a little bodily function humor is always welcome. I do live in a house with two other men, soon to be three. Ah, the testosterone.

Putting my resume together.

ALways good to keep your options open

Getting temporary work. I used to clean houses for a living (I love cleaning). So it was easy to get on the horn and drum up a little business. I have 4 regular clients lined up already. I could easily do this for awhile if I needed to. Plus, it would allow me the flexibility to continue my recovery and healing process.

Wanna just move to Philly I have a spare room and could use a housekeeper. I HATE cleaning!!!!! Room and Board included

Looking into treatment/recovery programs. Dang it if recovery programs aren't expensive. Trying to find one that fits my needs and is affordable has been tough. However, today I found one online that's 15 minutes from my house. I am waiting for my "team" of people from church to verify that it's a reputable organization and maybe I'll go for it.

A big step, but the right one!

Love to all of you!!!!!!!!

ANd you my friend

Quick update

Wendy's dad went home to be with the Lord this morning.

So sorry for your loss

While you're making your rounds don't forget to stop in on my trippy too. You need a little Disney Magic.

Hmmm, I wonder how I could make a hazmat suit look cute for pictures...

It would come in handy when I wanted to ride Stitch's Great Escape...

Jordan, It's good to hear from you even if it's simply to give us an update on how you're doing. It's good that you have a back-up plan just in case you decide not to go back to your job at the church. As far as treatment/recovery programs, I know that there are programs like that at two of the local colleges here. They are very budget friendly and are open to the public...not just college students. I wonder if something like that is available near you?

I am so very sorry to hear about your family's loss. Even though you know he's in a better place, it's still hard to deal with.

I will continue to pray for peace for you and your family.

 

[Lifelong_Dreamer]

My condolences to you and your family.

 

[Native NYer]

Jordan, Wendy, Derek...

I am so sorry for your loss.
Your family is in my thoughts and prayers

 

[WendyO]

You've got a lot on your plate, hon. Remember to take deep breaths, and know that there are many, many people on the DIS here who are pulling for you. You'll be in my thoughts and prayers.

And please, let Wendy and her family know that they'll be in my prayers as well. I just lost my mom on April 28th, quite unexpectedly, so I understand what a terrible time this is for everyone. It's never easy when a parent is ill.

It sounds like you're on a good road, and you're doing what needs to be done.

Oh! I'm so sorry to hear of your sudden loss as well... will offer up prayers for you as well... Amazing how we find so many around us who can empathize with us during difficult times...

so good to "see" you, jordan!

Looking into treatment/recovery programs. Dang it if recovery programs aren't expensive. Trying to find one that fits my needs and is affordable has been tough. However, today I found one online that's 15 minutes from my house. I am waiting for my "team" of people from church to verify that it's a reputable organization and maybe I'll go for it.

a couple of years ago we had to deal with this with my brother. he had a problem with opiates (pain meds). nothing like what you're dealing with, but when we started looking at residential treatment (outpatient hadn't worked) we found that most places were WAY over our budget. thank god we found a place that worked with us and he was able to sort of pay back his way when he started working again after the 28-day inpatient program. we had to wait a month to get him in there but it was so worth it. just keep looking and i'm sure you'll find something that fits your needs.

Struggling to make it through each day. It hasn't been easy. The last 2 years at church has burned me out and really sent me back to old ways. Ways that i thought were long gone. It is discouraging to know that I've not gotten past the past and for crying out loud, I'm 48! I'm not getting any younger. I thank you all for your continuing support and prayer. Please continue praying for me as this last week was especially difficult.

prayers and hugs comin' your way from georgia!

so, so sorry to hear about wendy's dad. i know that's tough and you guys are all in my thoughts and prayers. i'm glad you have such a close-knit family to help each other out in times like these.

oh, and i as much as i really wish i was there to give you a real hug, i'm kinda thankful for the many miles between us because of your recent re-discovery of del taco. totally kidding.

Wendy, thank you so much.

Jordan, Wendy, Derek, and family, so sorry for your loss

 

[burly]

I would like to add my condolenses. Did i spell that right? What i want to say is i'm so sorry for your loss.
Your life is like L.A. traffic....one person slams on the brakes and it's a big pile up!
I say prayers that when you come out of the tazmanian devil, whirling dervish that you are in, you will step lightly into the peace and comfort of a healed life. And a clear lane baby!
Hugs to you all.

 

[eandesmom]

I am so sorry for your loss. All of you, Wendy, Derek, Jordan and your family are in my prayers.

 

[Rozz]

So sorry for your loss! I didn't see your update about Wendy's dad until I'd submitted my posting.

I went back and read through the postings. You are just amazing! Farting, casseroles, hazmat suits, Southern accents and testosterone; just a few of the posting topics that caught my eye.

Comfort and peace to you and your family.

 

[Poolrat]

Going out to Wendy, Derek and Jordan for your loss.
It is so comforting to be around family during tough times.

Jordan- always trying to bring the funny. You know we will take you funny, serious sad or happy. Love and friendship jordan.
