O.K. Dianna.... I am soooooo sorry it's taken me so long to get the

paperwork from my sister, but I got it tonite on the way home from work....so

I'm

boxing up the hearing aids and Good Lord willing and the creeks don't rise...

they will be in the mail tomorrow. Praying so hard they fit your Mom. Mom had

2 different size ear canals, so hopefully even one will fit and help her a

little.

I need your address... I think you sent it before, but in my haste, I can't

find it. I'll look again, but just in case, can you email it to me at:

_Grandmommyandme@..._ (mailto:Grandmommyandme@...)

It's horrible that Glenn got this lousy cancer, I worry about all the

time. It can't be helped, my only son died so I know it can happen, your world

can change forever in a few seconds.

That's funny about the lighthouses, they are so neat, I always thought it would

be fun to live in one.

and I dont travel much, we have 2 cats and 2 dogs, have been together 4

years, married 2. Met 5 years ago online. He's from Canada. And I hope we have

years together, I can't imagine losing him.

Hugs to you and Glenn too! ~Dianna

Dianna and Donelle

It does my heart good when I hear of a couple meeting on line.. I am not

impressed by either eharmony or the New match.com. Those commercials

make me gag. I want to hear the 'real' stories from people I have met.

My older daughter and her hubby from UK met on line. over Xmas, by Feb

he had visited once and was back at the end of the month and they

married in March. Whirlwind courtship. LOL... I think it is 3 years

now. Course now it is the reality of living together, the annoyances etc

that they have to deal with as any married couple does. I met my hubby

as a pen pal back in the old snail mail days... He was stationed in

Hawaii... Alot of water under the bridge there, but we did end up

together and some good years and some not so good years.... Years ago

a hs classmate describe her marriage as heavenly bliss, I told her it

was more like peaceful coexistence... At least one other class mate

agreed with me. We used to keep in good touch back then, had a Round

Robin letter that went around to all the mates. Was cool. Now we

exchange xmas cards and half time someone has moved but is easy enough

to get the addresses.

Not much else going on here. Don't want to go to bed, took nap this

afternoon. Quicky...Need to find a book to read that I haven't read in

awhile.

Take care all.. JOlene.

And isn't that the truth??? We just miss tragedy here while I was in the

hospital. My middle daughter went into NY on a motorcycle in the rain; she was

a passenger. He skidded and she went flying off the bike into oncoming traffic.

But for the Grace of God...

Take good care all of you love birds.

Karima, how scarey about your daughter's accident, that was coming close huh?

I'm so glad she's ok. Motorcycle wrecks usually don't have good outcomes. It

makes for appreciating every moment while you're here when you realize how

quickly it can all be over.

Also since my mom and sister have had cancer and having met everyone here, you

learn how so many around you are suffering and going through so much, fighting

for their lives and the whole world walks around unaware thinking THEY have

problems. The ones who haven't experienced real tragedy and loss have no clue.

The bad things give you a whole new outlook on life and values and priorities. I

feel like a spectator since my son died (6 years ago) the world isn't the same

world I knew. And I value every single day with and never forget. ~Dianna

Oh dear, I nearly missed this. Guess your daughter is okay... But I am

sure she was sore for awhile. Ouch....

I have always loved motorcycles but they are scarey to ride. Medical

people don't like them either... When one comes in to ER they call them

donors or something I can't remember because most of time they don't

have helmets on so they are pretty much brain dead after an accident.

God is busy person... He has so many of us to look out for. Hugs JOlene

I know the feeling Barbara. I don't I could make a relationship work

anymore either. Besides I don't necessarily want to give up my

lifestyle. Get up when I want, go to bed when I want, clean house when I

want etc. Cook or not cook. would a man put up with that? I doubt it.

He would want things his way...course if I liked him alot I could give a

bit, but no way would he get into my bank account. Not much there and I

need every bit of it. LOL.... JOlene

LOL Donnelle, that is a given-- he has to be rich to pay off all my

bills. Love me love my bills. LOL...

Daughter Kriss saw one on Match.com.. Rancher up near Dallas some

place.. Said daddy always told him to keep woman on the ranch.

So he was offering a monthly stipend, etc to come to the ranch. Wealthy

maybe. Had lots of cattle land, and helicopter to watch over the cows.

Just never know... LOL... Kris didn't enquire about the " position " LOL...

God Bless him . Wish I could find one even a little like that. I

would be so spoiled. My hubby was most judgemental man I ever met.

Everything had to be his way, but golly I loved him too. When we first

got married I thought he hung the moon. He was such a capable man, but I

had never had to deal with men (former bachelors) who liked to hang out

with the guys every other night after work and come home drunk. That was

a real learning experience. I stuck it out because I didn't know any

better. LOL... I was soooooo naive back then... May be why I am so

cynical now. Awhile back when daughter Laurie was single, and still a

bartender -- she introduced me to this one trucker who used to send her

flowers etc. Just being nice, they never dated. But he looked at me and

said I can see where Laurie gets her looks. I did a raspberry in his

face and laughed. He looked rather dumfounded... I know she did not get

her looks from me. Her looks are her own, and the way she carries

herself and her attitude is what makes her noticeable... Stops traffic I

should say. Anyway I just don't like to hear compliments that are flim

flam. Now days when someone tells me I look good I believe them but if

they went beyond that I would laugh in there face. LOL>. Ha Cheers Jolene
