Good Morning Marcy @MarcyW882921 , hope you are well. A quick FYI for you as I know you stay SUPER BUSY. I do clean out this forum so do not think you are losing it when you stop by and stuff is NO LONGER here. Just use your AARP email COPIES as they are reliable and a true copy of my ORIGINAL posts. Lol, I guess even in my OLD age I like stuff organized. ONLY my old posts that NO ONE has responded to will be DELETED. 📸  A .gif for YOU  🤗🤗🤗

[SummerIsTooHOT]

I sent Marcy @MarcyW882921 a PM. Lol, I am so use to her being too busy to stop by - but thought of her today. She stopped by when I was locked out for 2nd time.  🙄🙄🙄

[SummerIsTooHOT]

How are you guys doing?  🤔

I had a rough night but survived I guess. Now to get my mind on track to see what TODAY has in store for me.  👍👍👍

Lol, well my boy played hard to get last night. Didnot see him on the sidewalk in front of Ms. G's Front Porch at 10pm. His usual time to be all HANDSOME and pose for us all - lounging.

So I went over, calling him several times.  🙄🙄🙄

He eventually walks out from wherever he was  🤔🤔🤔  and looks at me and his food dish in my hand. Instead of rushing to EAT when I put it down close to him - he walks away, lays down and totally ignores me and food.

Aha, in one of his moods/lol  🤣😂

Anyway, got him to eat after several minutes of sweet talk. That's my spoilt boy...

Ms. G's son just arrived. Early and a Saturday. Must mean she will be here shortly and maybe it is the U-haul truck day. Will be interesting when NEW people move in = will they tolerate the cat hanging around, will he continue to lounge on the sidewalk over there. That will now be 2 sets of HUMANS who have left him BEHIND once Ms. G moves. 1st set was his OWNERS. 2nd set Ms. G who lives 1 door away from where they use to live. She is NOT here at nights THIS MONTH and pops in now and again. I am 66 and she is older than me, so maybe her son is doing ALL the packing for her.

Everyone FIND YOUR PEACE TODAY,

Luv you ALL Nicole  🤗🤗🤗

Sorry you had a rough night. Not fun. Hope you get some rest. Take care Nicole. You and everyone on the forum I remember in prayer.

Good Morning @Underbat , I am posting this NOW before I get locked out again.

[1] My Profile was NOT there just NOW when I arrived to post my Good Morning to the group. In the past, this was the 1st thing that happened. And YES, I was able to log out and log back in = My Profile is back for now.

[2] In the past, as the day/night progressed AFTER this 1st issue - My Profile went BYE BYE for days = could log into forum, but could NOT post.

Thanks,

Nicole  🤗🤗🤗

😴  Sweet Dreams Everyone  🤗🤗🤗

[SummerIsTooHOT]

Thanks MC @mc6844 and they will NEVER change = Indians who feel they own the property.

I am looking at my OPTIONS while I WAIT to see what happens in Florida with my laid off daughter.

Luv you VERY MUCH,

Nicole  🤗🤗🤗

I can imagine all the people who must be on the Aarp site  at the same time. Times of flux. There are lots of interesting classes and events on the site. I attended one grief event. Good information.

[SummerIsTooHOT]

👋  How are you guys doing?

68 degrees here in Cave Spring, Virginia.

Well the weekend is here and I hope everyone has a GREAT one!!!  💃💃💃

Find YOUR PEACE TODAY,

How is everyone doing?  🤔

UPDATE on Mr. No Name!!!

I found out through the grapevine that Ms. G is moving = reason for her car NOT being here on a regular basis.

Finally got his SPOILT b.tt to walk over to my porch TONIGHT, saving me having to walk over to her porch.

Been reading up on Feral Cats and finally figured out 10pm is HIS TIME TO LOUNGE on the sidewalk in front of her porch.

Now to HOPE he comes over AGAIN tomorrow night when I call him. Lol, probably look my way and NOT move.  🤣😂

He has ADDED so much to my life. Less time to miss my daughter in Florida and less time to worry about her being laid off. My boy...

Luv you ALL,

Nicole  🤗🤗🤗

Welcome back Nicole 👏   I caught two feral cats many years ago, got them fixed and then gave them to my son.   It took many years of patience and love to convert them into friendly, loving, devoted pets.  They actually became indoor cats and lived to a ripe old age.   Wish you luck with  him.  Now at his new home he has ANOTHER cat that comes to visit him!!  

[Cadee2719]

  Is this site down AGAIN?  Does AARP want to eliminate this site and the people on it?  I don't understand what the problem is and why it happens over and over again.  It would be sad to eliminate a site that has HELPED a lot of people and is viewed by so many.

  Nicole, just checking to make sure you are ok.  Be safe.  

[Cadee2719]

  I am hoping that all of my friends in Florida ARE NOT being affected by the heavy rains.  Be Safe.  I am adjusting to my new weather patterns:  Today it will be 80 and this weekend a cold front from Alaska is moving in!!!  I have learned, wait five minutes and the weather will change.  😀   I love it.

[MarcyW882921]

We got a lot of rain here last week that we desperately needed. Fortunately in my area it didn't cause any flooding. Happy Monday!

Marcy

[Cadee2719]

  Glad to hear you are ok.  Be safe    Hope Nicole is ok and others living in Florida.

(1 comment) Marcy @MarcyW882921 , how long should I wait before I send a Search Party to locate you/lol.

On the serious side, I know you stay busy.

Hope you are well  🤗🤗🤗

[MarcyW882921]

Ha Ha Nicole @SummerIsTooHOT ! I am still here. I had an incredibly busy and wonderful weekend. Tonight I have my regular chorus rehearsal and tomorrow night I have rehearsal for a community chorus that I have joined just for an event later this month. The event is Make Music Day and it happens around the world on June 21st. This is Palm Beach County's first year to participate.

[1] Marcy @MarcyW882921 , anything to share with us? Maybe about your roof  🙄 and/or chorus and so on. NO pressure as usual, just me being my usual nosey self.

[2] Cadee @Cadee2719 , you are ON FIRE and SO GLAD you are now Ms. Idaho!!!  💃💃💃  Please, when you can - continue to share your adventures with us. They bring a smile to my face. Gosh, those medical folks need to get you set up like yesterday.

[3] Allen @Therapist4u , sending LOTS AND LOTS of luv your way. Being in pain is no fun especially as we age.

[4] MC @mc6844 and Jonibee @jonibee , please stop by when you can. I totally LUV hearing from you BOTH.

Nicole  🤗🤗🤗

[MarcyW882921]

Actually @SummerIsTooHOT , my roof tiles were delivered last week. I'm told they will be put in place in the next couple of weeks. I'm hoping that timeline is correct!

 Morning Nicole.  FINALLY got an appointment with a rheumatologist; November 6th!  Now I will attempt to get an appointment with a cardiologist and a family doctor.  How is your daughter doing?  I am getting close to completing my house.  I have about four boxes of "stuff" I should have never brought with me, so I am taking them to a boy's charity here.  My son completed clearance and got the job he wanted.  He seems to be settling in here.  My grandson promised to come and stay with me for Thanksgiving.  I have made several new friends here, but must admit there are days that I still cry and miss my son and husband.  I hope I will learn to cope better, but I wonder if I will.  One thing I love about Idaho is that it could be 10 o'clock and still daylight out!!!!  It amazes me.  I often discover that it is 8 or 9 o'clock and I have not eaten dinner yet.  My son asked me:  "Mom how do you feel being out at a store at 8 at night?" and I said I feel safe.  The only person that approaches me here is one asking "Mam, do you want this cart" or "Can I help you put those bags in your car."  As I said, I think I died and went to heaven. I wish the same for both you and Allen.

[MarcyW882921]

Well Cadee @Cadee2719 , I'm sorry your appointment with the rheumatologist is so far in the future, but it seems that is the case with specialist appointments these days. That is great that you made the decision to donate boxes of stuff you discovered that you didn't need. Someone will make use of them and you won't have to worry about unpacking them or deciding where the stuff could possibly fit! More good news about your son finding a job. It's also great that you are surrounded by new friends and polite people who are willing to help. I hope your new surroundings will bring you joy and help to reduce the number of tearful days.
