Hey friends. Sending good ticket karma to those of you who are trying for better tickets today!
I'm enjoying all of the happy and enthusiastic posts these past couple of days. Even though I can't join so many of you this time around, I am still excited over the upcoming events. I can't begin to tell you how much I will miss seeing so many of you, but I know that I have made the right decision this time!
WILSON BARB, thanks for understanding and encouraging me about my mom's upcoming move .
I think this could be the best thing that ever happened to our mother-daughter relationship. I hope to be part of making her life less lonelier and much happier, as I know she is struggling right now. And now that Phil is finally OK with this I think we will be able to deal with the stresses of her failing health and her imperfections (after all, I'm perfect ya know!
) much more easily.
GWENN, thanks
and I think you will enjoy the new dynamics with ER when they get married. I know that although I don't talk to my sons as often as I once did when they were single, there is a new depth to our relationship that comes with their having families of their own. Plus I enjoy the new "friendships" I have with my two DIL's, each in a very unique way!
We are taking it very slowly and I am not pushing it, but I do see growth and trust and love emerging!!! They will hopefully someday be the mothers of my grandchildren and I know that they are my sons' soulmates, so they deserve all of the love and respect that I can offer them.
Plus they are beautiful, talented and wonderful women in their own right.
I know that Barry will enjoy having a new "son". And I have no doubt that you and ER will grow even closer.
MARLENE, I would be more comfortable if IChris were to PM me about the Marriot room rather than my approaching her about it.
I'm going to finally try to get out to run just a couple of errands today. I think I'm finally regaining some strength.
Have a good one, ladies!!!
