about oldrebel
Going down that long lonesome highway
Bound for the mountains and the plains
Sure ain't nothing here gonna tie me
And I got some friends I'd like to see
One of these days I'm gonna settle down
But till I do I won't be hanging round
Going down that long lonesome highway
Gonna live life my way
One of these days I'm gonna settle down
But till I do I won't be hanging round
Going down that long lonesome highway
Gonna live life my way
Yes I'm going down that long lonesome highway
Gonna live life my way
Long Lonesome Highway \*/ Michael Parks [Then Came Bronson theme song]

Sounds as if you have this time off all planned out for fun. Guess if you're gonna be laid off, Spring is a good time. Just like with my surgery in Nov. I was out during all the holidays.
Enjoy!

Hope your day goes great! I may be heading that way sometime this weekend, lol. Thinking of taking some of my things I have already packed to my sister's and staying with her for the weekend. I need to get out of this house before I ring the soon-to-be- exes neck, lol. :-)

Come June though, I am moving towards Clayton and it shouldn't be that far. I will keep it in mind. I am always looking for new places to take my kids!!

That is the side of you that I have always seen!!
You may be right, the rotten economy has added more stress in the workplace - so maybe it does ooze into golo. That makes a lot of sense.

I agree with OR. When Kestrel's blog with the links about Sherry first came up - there was some strong reactions. Some of the reactions where in Kestrel's blog, and some posts spilled off onto other's profiles. I am the one who asked that we close the blog and wait for Angela. Since there are no weekend moderators, it was the only way to get people to step back and cool off. And given some of the things that were being said - a cooling off period was NECESSARY.

I had a buddy who volunteered for sub-duty. He was a nuke tech who had a medical discharge from the Navy after suffering a stroke in his twenties.
He ended up on the Enterprise after he found out he had to get all of his dental fillings redone before going to sea. He had a stoke at sea and had he been on a boomer, he probably would have died before thay could get him to a land based hospital.
I guess you've been keeping up on the Carthage shooting. My kid goes to school with the shooter's step-daughter. Such a sad sad story.

Seriously. This is in reply to your blog. Be yourself, and the world will appreciate it. I know I do.

I get tired of the drama and just want to have a conversation with friends.
I hope you have a good evening. And remember...the crazies in the world will not change you.

It's still the same group. Same ole group.
Oh well, I have a life and I seem to care more about the real people than the cyber people. Presant company accepted...I like you...and your blogs. Keep us informed on your adventures. I love to hear about them.

Good night. I'll be around, especially if I see someone I care about getting attacked.
Have a great night!

As for the family, we're getting close to normal again. My grandma and grandmother in law both suffer from dementia/Alzheimer's, so they remember very little of what happened. Both are in good spirits, which is a blessing. Thanks again for your support. We all really appreciate it!

YES, there definitely are jerks that ride up behind you and expect you to get out of the way, even if there’s no where to go. I’m amazed at the people that have fits behind me because I’m not right against the car in front of me, yet we’re all STOPPED in traffic.
My kids and I saw the monument last summer but didn’t realize it was MY sub at the time. The weather was bad so I didn’t read the plague. Kids got a kick out of it later. Said it was like knowing someone from the Titanic. :)

I'm not sure how a blog from this morning got brought into the last one I posted. You seem to be inable of letting go of one comment that was made as a joke. So you don't/didn't find it humorous. Ok, I get but let it go will ya?
