The Newest-New Home of the SwanDolphin Cheerleaders -Where Friends Gather

[CookieGVB]

Well, this was an odd morning. My alarm clock never went off, even though it was set as usual, and I only woke up in enough time to get the boys off to school - but too late to head to work and get there at a reasonable hour. Then of course my stomach was doing its own performance...

So now I'm home, even though I had planned to go to work. And I have the television on, though I swore I wouldn't. And I'm crying again, though I didn't think I could anymore. It's certainly not the day I thought it would be, and I'm kind of glad in a way...

Everything happens for a reason. We may not know that reason, but, it is there.

I do love and treasure each of you. Your warmth, love and friendship has helped make my life richer, has helped me through the trying times of late and has brought a new kind of lasting relationship to my life.

Beautifully said Sue! I feel the same way.

 

[Mickeyfaniam]

yes Sue, beautifully said!
ditto here

Hi. Wanted to stop in and see how everyone is. Ya'll are all in my thoughts.

I sat and watched the Ground Zero Commemoration (even though Brendan said, before he left for school, "Mom, don't watch - you know you'll sit there crying all day if you do...") - it struck me again just how many people lost their lives when it took them nearly two hours to read off all the names - that was certainly a wake-up call...that and the fact that I nearly forgot a co-worker who just recently retired had lost her husband that day as well.

I left the house around noon, thinking to get away from the television - but Walmart actually had all televisions set and blaring on ABC. I handled that well, but nearly lost it in the parking lot when I saw they had a flag at half-staff... The people driving around town with their headlights on was comforting in a way, but I'm nearly drained again. I certainly hope the media is done with this, at least until next year.

How's everyone else doing today??

Wonder how our newest newlywed is doing???? Etc., etc., etc., etc., etc....

'Ja ever watch the Golden Girls, when Sofia goes away with a man to stay at a Disneyland hotel, and Rose asks them when they get back how'd they like the park and the rides...and the old guy says, "There were RIDES and a PARK there???"

Good evening friends. Sue, that was very lovely and I too feel the same about you all.

{{hugs}} Gail, I can only imagine how hard this day was for you. I remember last year calling Chrissi at work and asking her to log on here to see if you were okay. At that time there was no word, an hour or so later I think it was Pandy that posted you were okay. I was relieved! I too watched some on tv, heard the names being read. Very sad, watched Tom Brokow lose it while talking with a bunch of people.

Sue - did make it to TDS and got my pin.

{{hugs}} to all.

Quiet night. I can only assume that the heavy emotions of today have drained you, as they did me. And still it goes on..

Ms--good news about the pin.

Hope you all have a quiet, peaceful night.

And earlier I discovered my Norton antivirus wasn't working and had to reinstall that....have no idea what happened to it.....found a couple of viruses immediately after the reinstallation.

good night everyone
