oops...sorry : was update
Bev" wrote in message
oups.com... Sorry didn't mean to end up in the middle of this thread ! thanks for reponding Kat Bev wrote: Well hello.... I managed to have a day off and a little time I could post. Lets see...the transmission on my "free" 98 Ford windstar decided to take a poop on me wednesday night, so that will empty my bank acct Ahh... Days off are nice. Since I haven't been working the last little while, I almost miss work. Funny how things work out like that often... Hehehe...Any vehicle can be a real pain. My dad gave me an old '89 Taurus Wagon back in July and it crapped out on me in August. Some grounding problem that was figured out after a little while. Got it up and running again, after a few hundred bucks (I'm so greatful that my dad worked all that out since he's the autobody guy and his good friend is a mechanic that he actually bought the wagon off of) At the time, I worked as a partsman at an auto parts store, so in the end, it was a helluva lot cheaper to fix than normal. I was so glad when I got my Volkswagen end of October, but now there seems to be a belt of some sort that's come loose. Even free for me as well, it still costs no matter what! Good luck with fixing yours, and shop around if possible! You'll probably find that if it's not one thing, it's another, but hopefully that doesn't happen to you. I will get the verdict on monday as to minor or major repair..I am praying! Bev wrote: I am still working as a meat wrapper *UGH!* I do so hate it but it is what I have to do for a few more months I think , so as to stay closer to home and abide by the current court ordered restriction on my daughter having custody of her daughter. This works because M works an hour away and she needs to leave as soon as I get in from work so that S and J are supervised 24/7. It must be this way until we can have that restriction lifted once we win this custody thing that is still going on. Crappy jobs is something I'm sure almost everyone has had to deal with, so don't worry. It's a job, and it seems it's more of convenience and what is making life easier for you, and your family, so that's definitely a plus. Yeah I just didn't think much of the fact I would be working in a refrigerator all day and this is killing my arthritis and DDD, not to mention one of my spurs is back....owie, owie Bev wrote: It is looking good for S so far , she has learnt a valuable lesson on how her *Drama* wil come back and bite her in the a** ! What has recently surfaced in her diagnosis has proven thus far to be much more accurate to her original diagnosis of bi-polar. She is being treated for depression and ADHD, Remron for the depression and insomnia and Strattera for the ADHD and I have met my *real* daughter ! What a helpful pleasure to have her around I mean almost immediatly upon first dose a month ago her patience and behavior have improved 10 fold, and she is cleaning and cooking meals for me ! I have heard it can take a long time to correctly diagnose mental health and boy have we been through it ! Yup, almost always it seems like forever to make the most accurate diagnosis. I know it took me from when I was about 12 until I was nearly 18 to finally find out what was going on, and to get some sort of medication that worked best. Hang in there, it's well worth the time and effort, and all you can really do is be as patient as possible and hope for the best. Eventually, hopefully sooner than later, you'll see that things are actually 'normal' and that no one is really crazy or losing their minds. Also, if you have a daughter that cooks and cleans for you, would you mind if I borrowed her for a day or so every week? I can't cook much more than what I can make warm in a microwave, and my cleaning often gets so out of hand. lol Now don't get too excited about the daughter....I mean I'd lend her to you but from the looks of it you'll get a bill for services rendered...yep I knew it was too good to be true....she hit me up for 25 bucks stating that was what she thought cooking a meal and cleaning the house was worth ! I nearly wet myself laughing, she does a couple hrs and is looking for my whole days pay ! Sheesh ! Bev wrote: We had the house inspection about two weeks ago all seemed good that I could tell. S has released her psych eval to her lawyer to offer to the opposing side as asked for and so now we wait and see if they decide to forge ahead with a nasty fight in court or sit down at the table and work out an agreement which is what we want to do and have all along. If everything seems to be alright, then don't sweat it. Do what you have to do, and do it ONLY for the sake of this child. Don't do it for yourself and make sure that what you do isn't hiding anything shelfish. I'm not saying that it is, but just ALWAYS think of that baby. I definitely agree that dragging everything through the court system is probably best avoided if possible. Any hard feelings between family members is definitely not good. Being on friendly, happy and good terms is something that is a must. You now have, basically, the rest of your life with the other side of the baby's family, and that's if you like it or not. Again, just do all you can for your grandchild! She deserves a loving, stable family all around! Yes she does, and my daughter is the one that this will depend on. We let her know that we will support her so long as she does what is right for her child and that whether or not she maintains custody of her daughter depends on her and that she holds that responsibility. Bev wrote: The Father of the baby has had his third car accident since he got his license last summer ! This concerns me .That is three cars totalled and thank somebody he walked away and no one else has been hurt . Any type of dangerous driver would scare me, especailly the father of my child or grandchild. Hopefully he can learn to grow up and act more mature. I've only had a valid driver's license since I was 16, which is only 6 years now. I've been in one major accident when a lady ran a red light and T-boned me. Even though I was cleared and not at fault, I've found I am still, to this day, I'm even more cautious of a driver. This accident was back end of September in 2002. I just hope for his sake, as well as the sake of his family (you and your family included) as well as the sake of the public he has fianlly learned a lesson. I just hope that it doesn't take a serious injury or even worse for him to learn. I hope so too...... Bev wrote: J has a favorite word now NO! LOL! "do you want a drink ?" NO!, "do you want ice cream ?" NO! "Did you do poop?" NO! She is such a joy to all of us both sides and I hope they stop this bull and get real in the end the baby is the one that is to suffer the lack of a peaceful communication between families. Ha! And you already know that this "no!" business never really stops, right? It's kind of funny and cute to start... But I know with B it's starting to become a real issue. lol She sounds like your typical little one, and that's good. It's good to see that she's definitely as normal as any child can be. lol Just keep doing what you are doing, and do it all for her best interest. Try and keep the peace so she doesn't suffer. Best of luck to you all! Oh yes I do know ! I am enjoying so many memories of when my two were this age and how nice it is to share with my daughter the milestones J is making .... Bev wrote: I guess I will end this update, wouldn't want anyone to think I gave up on the benefits this group does have to offer, thanks to those of you that respond I do appreciate it, take care....Bev Meh... I've noticed we all get busy... Sometimes I know I just sort of disappear and appear when I need to, but I usually find the time to read, if not always say hi. Just do your very best. That's all you can and really need to do. I have gone from spending hours and hours online to a quickie 15-20 minutes in the a.m. before work, grab my coffee and a smoke and log on to just check mail and do a little reading to keep up on my groups and most nights it is the same. Busy is good I guess Nice chattin with ya ! Bev -- A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing? A: Top-posting. Q: What is the most annoying thing on usenet? Reply |
