Hello :

Yeap! you only gave up your bull headedness a tad ;o) I can tell. You told Bernice that you were going to bed because of chest pain's and here you are posting to me. Shame on you .What are we going to do with you? ) If you don't watch out will have to have your 35 lb puppy sit on you and then you won't be able to get up. Are you sure it's a dog and not a horse? Give it a few more weeks and you may see it really is a horse.

So you still have that coat on? I think your one of the few that is cold most of the time. Seem's alot here get hot and have the window's open all the time. I just about freeze during the winter when I have to have the window's open for Fred and it's cold outside.

Are you sure it's you , your talking about that's trying to accept your new lot in life? I don't see you being someone that would accept anything. Seem's like your a fighter to me, not one that would give up the ship. Couldn't you still work out of your house? Can't your clients come there? Have you ever talked to them about coming out there? Just something to think about.

Well I need to run, take care of your lap dog. ) and yourself also.

HI VERA.

I TOO AM GLAD I GAVE UP MY BULL-HEADEDNESS (AT LEAST A TAD) AND

ACCEPTED THE CHAIR. I'M BACK HOME NOW... AND BULL-HEADED AS EVER :-)

NAW - NOT REALLY.

REALLY TRYING TO ADJUST - AND ACCEPT MY NEW LOT IN LIFE.

IN FACT, WE WERE DISCUSSING IT TODAY, AND I MAY CEASE WORK AS EARLY

AS THE END OF THE MONTH. DONNALEE CAN'T DRIVE AFTER DARK, AND MOST

OF MY WORK WITH CLIENTS IS AFTER 4 P.M. - AND AN HOUR FROM HOME...

MAKES IT PRETTY DIFFICULT WHEN THE SUN WILL BE GOING DOWN AT 5:30 IN

ANOTHER COUPLE OF WEEKS...

REGARDING THE JACKET... NOPE... I KEPT IT ON... YOU SEE, MY FAMILY

HAS TO HAVE THE A/C BLASTING. SO THE HOTTER THEY GET - THE COLDER I

GET.

REALLY WEIRD. IT IS LIKE MY WIFE AND I TRADED PLACES... 2 YEARS

AGO, I WAS THE ONE WHO WAS HOT ALL THE TIME, AND SHE WAS ALWAYS COLD.

NOW IT HAS REVERSED.

OF COURSE, SHE DOES RUN AROUND HERE WITH THERMALS OR EQUIVALENT MOST

OF THE TIME. I TRY TO CONVINCE HER TO DRESS A BIT COOLER, BUT IT

DOESN'T DO ANY GOOD. GUESS OLD HABITS ARE HARD TO BREAK! :-)

WELL... IT IS GOOD TO BE BACK HOME.

DON'T THINK WE'LL BE VENTURING BACK TO CA ANYTIME SOON.

DONNALEE'S SISTER WANTS US ALL TO COME BACK AND HAVE A REUNION AGAIN

NEXT YEAR - BUT... HER DAD AND AUNT WERE A BIT DIFFERENT - AND EVEN

HER BROTHER SAID HE WILL NOT BE GOING BACK TO SEE THEIR DAD (BAD

BACKGROUND - SO MUCH SO - THAT I'M SURPRISED THEY ALL GATHERED THERE

ANYWAY.)

WELL, BEST GET GOING.

NEED TO GO CHECK ON MY NEW DOG.

DID YOU READ THAT POST?

IT WAS HIDDEN IN A RESPONSE TO SOMEONE WHO RESPONDED TO MY POST...

GOTTA GO.

EYES FREAKING - AND BODY IS SIMILARLY ENGAGED... :-)

ALL FOR NOW

BY THE WAY... THANKS FOR THE WELCOME BACK. I'M GLAD MY HUMOR IS

APPRECIATED. I ALWAYS STRIVE FOR AT LEAST ONE SMILE IN RESPONSE TO A

VISIT (OR IN THIS CASE - POST).
