Early Saturday morning I am heading to Mexico with my wife and daughters. With both daughters being college students, I know this may well be the last trip for a long while that we can all spend together. We don't have a lot of plans while there, and I'm looking forward just to spending some time together. No computer on this trip. And only one cell phone for emergency use only. So we'll have to talk to each other!

Hasta Luego y buen viaje. Be safe!

Hi Groupies
I just read back a few pages and my heart goes out to so many of you as my prayers are offered up.

Muushka and Dizny Dad so sorry for your losses and prayers for your friends and their families for comfort and peace. Muushka and prayers to support you as you support your friend.


Jimmy Blessings for little Tessa and all the family with continued prayers for healing and strength and special prayers of thanks for Tammy for caring for her SIL.

stopher Many prayers offered up for your wife, her dad and all of the family. Prayers for healing both body and spirit and prayers for comfort and peace. Tough times don't always bring families together but sometimes the "Stress" just opens up old wounds. We know who can heal them all in his time.

Every summer, DDad likes to have an outdoor project, whether it be a new garden, walkway or something to improve the everyday outdoor maintenance. As many of you know, our daughter is an ordained American Baptist pastor - as is her husband.

While in seminary, she asked her dad to build her a 'prayer garden'. Well our air went out yesterday and it was just too dang hot to stay in bed this morning, so I found myself in the prayer garden....
There in the quiet and solitude, while listening to God's earth wake up around me I talked with God and thanked him for my many blessings.
I also asked that he give comfort to Norms family and friends as they now face life without him.
Peace for Stophers wife being so very far away and feeling so helpless while her father faces recovery and is unable to care for himself. And for Stopher, strength as he shoulders and supports his wife through this difficult and uncertain time.
JT, our daughter was a preemie, born 5 wks prematurely, and while she has significant health difficulties, she is now a married, almost 30 year old young woman enjoying every moment life has to offer. There is strength in family! Having been where your SIL is, thank you for your help to ease this burden. Prayers also for you and your family and extended family as they welcome this beautiful gift from God into their lives. But most importantly, for baby Tessa's daddy so very far away, I asked God to bring calmness to his soul and know that his family 'back home' has circled the wagons and are supporting his family the way he would if he could.

It seems we Groupies have many concerns on our hearts these past few days. all around! Supporting one another is what we do best.

Di as I read your post I was reminded of one of my favorite hymns
I come to the garden alone,. While the dew is still on the roses;. And the voice I hear....

Continued prayers for Kat's mom.
and prayers of thanks and support for all of the groupies and our families
to help with whatever trials we may be facing.

I saw this while skimming another forum. Evidently Donald has been a bad boy.

The Smoking Gun website has revealed court documents detailing a claim by a PA woman, April Magolon, who claims her breast was groped by Donald Duck during a visit to Epcot back in 2008. Click here to see the official papers for yourself. The suit alleges that the supposed incident caused Magolon to have ongoing "injuries" such as severe pain, mental anxiety, anguish, and physical problems ranging from nausea and digestive problems to headaches and cold sweats. She even relieves the terror of Donald's touch in flashbacks and nightmares. She is, of course, seeking a large monetary judgment to compensate her for her present and future suffering.

I apologize if it's a bit "racier" than we normally have but we need a laugh.

Thanks We needed that

Granny Have a great time in Mexico

and Wilderness Dad How many days????

take care you guys

 

[stopher1]

Thanks again all for the prayers and kind words. Talked to DW earlier this afternoon and the only update is my FIL will remain in the hospital another day or two. The docs have requested more tests. They are looking for another round of MRI and a some other kinds that I can't recall the name of right now. So we wait, and wait.

And I will be off the computer in about an hour until Sunday night as my son and I leave for a Scout related campout this weekend, where he'll be inducted into a special honor society here in Indiana. I was inducted last month, now it's his turn. SO - ta ta for now, and I'll definitely update you on the family's news when I return to the computer Sunday night-ish. Thanks for lifting them all up. You definitely are the best!!

Vaya con Dios = literally, Go with God (we would probably say have a safe trip) and enjoy your family.
Buen viaje = have a good trip

 

[wildernessDad]

People, you got to listen to me!

I said 115 days to go! You must drop whatever you are doing and read this! This is important, man! Do you hear me?

 

[wildernessDad]

Okay, I can't speak much Spanish at all. Five years in Texas and I am able to find the bathroom and order cerveza fria. Thanks to Roberto Duran, I understand "no mas" too.

Thanks everyone for the wishes and language lessons. Even without translation I knew you were sending only good vibes my way.

Vaya con Dios, my friends.

Hi guys! Back from our Disney cruise. In a word it was fantastic. I was even able to meet some DISers from the cruise thread. We had perfect weather the entire time. Saw the Hemingway house and met up with many of the 6 toed cats! We also saw "the cat man" and his amazing trained cats in Mallory Square. Now all I need to do is decide on my next trips! And... I need to get caught up here!

 

[franandaj]

Just caught up with things, so glad everything is so far OK with you JT.

Stopher1 best wishes to you, this is the most difficult period. We completed a similar journey last (2 days after) Christmas with my FIL, it was a long time, he was 87 and we went through lots of ups and downs with hospitals, taking the car away from him and other scenarios. I hope everything works out for the best, I know it's difficult especially when you really love the person who is in so much pain.

Best of luck, it's even more difficult when you're far away. Prayers are with you.

 

[blossomz]

Just read back to get caught up. Many prayers andvthoughts to all of the groupies going through a difficult time. Having groupies really does make a difference.

On another note....I'm a thin cruster!

Hey, since I haven't been to the world since last year and don't have a trip planned until next August, I'm living vicarously through you & other groupies

I'm the typically student, I learned the four letter words first, Portugese in-laws help also. Early in the marriage I felt like "Lucy" trying to figure out "Ricky"

Update

Natalie and baby are doing fine, still being monitored. Tammy is hanging in there with the kids. I feel so fortunate that God blessed me with such a wonderful and caring wife and mother. And her brother is coming home!!!! It was a loophole, he will be here Tues til the 5th of Sept.
I cant say how much it means that you folks have prayed for this situation. I sit here in tears, not sad, but happy I have so many friends who truly care. To be blessed is to have wonderful people in your life, like you folks.

Glad to hear they are doing well and BIL is coming home!!! We really do care about you JT!!!

As much as I wish it were me going alas I am not. I think you probably meant BWV Dreaming. But thanks anyway!!

I know yall do DLI, thats why I hang out here

Natalie is being discharged today, but will stay at the hospital with Tessa. They are still monitoring her blood sugar. Tammy is still with the little ones and she just got another one to boot! Adam, who is a 12 yr old by Natalies first hubby, got brought back by his father(cant say dad, cause a dad wouldnt do that under the circumstances) since his time with him was up, I guess Needless to say this ol boy wasnt too happy about that, since Tammy already has a full plate as it is with the other little ones. Casey and I are going down in a little while to help Tammy, stay overnight, and be with her for her Bday tomorrow. Adams father best stay away, or he might get an earful from this ol boy. Yes , I do have a redneck fightin side of me too I just try to not let it show

But the soft side of me returns quickly, and it reminds me to once again thank you all for continued prayer and support.

Hey, since I haven't been to the world since last year and don't have a trip planned until next August, I'm living vicarously through you & other groupies
