Good morning all, I had a great weekend with my grandson (Chrissy's son) We called her and she actually thanked me for spending time with him. That meant so much to me, we have actually come a long way since three years ago, when she didn't want me to have him over because of my mental health issues. Family is always the last to realize that you are mentally well.

Jappyj, sorry for your loss.

Jean, best wishes on the interview.

Comment by spyder013 on March 9, 2015 at 9:54am

Catsmom, glad you are on our time finally...lol.
Hope everyone has a great week

Good morning everyone, Love the pics from all of you.

Jean good luck with the phone interview. Praying you get the job.

Time change is not fun LOL Enjoy it staying lighter later, but waking up not so much. Hope you all had a good weekend. My hubby went to the drag races with some high school friends. I enjoyed my weekend alone. Talked to Crystal everyday over the weekend. New class to stress over. When she asked the instructor to explain again, he said why, you should get it...and he did not. She is so stressed. Told her she will do fine. So please continue the prayers for her.

Good morning everyone!

Jean good luck fingers crossed.  Been a bit of an emotional weekend for me a very close friend passed away suddenly on Friday, and spent the last weekend with my daughter before she leaves for her next phase of her navy life!
