I think Shirley will STEAL the stage. Maybe she can be hypnotized so everytime she hears the words Jim Beam she'll turn into Cindy. Make sure she's got a helmut on and knee pads and swim goggles cuz if that happens she's sure to fall in a hole or down a hill or into the pond.

One way that Diane is going to 'entertain' me is by letting me
play in her dirt!! clap

She knows how much I miss having a garden to dig in (why I have so many plants in my apartment!) so she is giving me a little plot of dirt, just for me.!! I get to plant stuff in it!!! grin It will be her Shirley Garden ! clap

It seems like it, Jessica, doesn't it?!

After I get back from TX, and then get back from KY, I'm going to have to start thinking about somewhere else to go!!

I HATE this place,where I'm at, with a passion!!!!

Maybe I can save up enough to go suprise my son in VA on his birthday on Halloween. I'm thinking seriously about that.

Shirley we are going to wear you out ( a good wear out). If you want to I will let you feed the baby while your here of course I will make sure you at least hold Clyde. Maybe we can convince you to move here grin . But then you would never have any piece and quite with me on one side and Diane on the other. Going to be warm so bring your summer clothes and a sweater as it can get cool here at night. Can't wait for you to get here. clap

Sorry Dodge, I never did get around to answering this! blush

It's very hard to move when you live on a S.S. income of below poverty level...I guess I'd rather spend what money I can save (plus that STIMULAS check) to travel. I love to travel.

But when I can't get away and am stuck 'here'....I cry a lot! Really!
It's horribly depressing. And although I laugh a lot, and like to cut-up and joke around, that isn't what I'm doing here in this place, when I'm not on the forum or on the phone with someone close.

I do have my wonderful plants that make me happy, though, grin and if I didn't have Diane and Cindy, the two closest people in the world to me, I would probably already have been chucked off somewhere....even worse!!! boohoo

But...this is getting off this topic in a depressing way. But I wanted to answer you and not let you think I ignored the question blush

Soooooo.....you know that song.."Girls just wanta have fun".....that's me!! lol notme

maybe you should post that "blue" goodie bag in Diane's topic for blue flowers.

Where in VA does your son live? Never to early to start planning.


Speaking of pilots - is your flight a direct flight? Or does it stop in Charlotte?

Sheri, my son lives in Rocky Mount, which is a little bit S.E. of Roanoke?
It is a little tiny town like I love, and the neighborhoods are pretty to take walks in. I have been there two Christmases in a row.

My flight to TX is a direct flight, which I appreciate.

Hey, notice my signature line........ notme
