Sandra, I hope you feel better, usually a good sleep is the best medicine.

Sandra,are you feeling better?You have been on my mind.Get well soon!

Sandra,

Coffee sounds like a great idea....we can swap stories. I have never been chased by a woman holding scissors, but I did run with a pair once.....

As to the rabbits....that's for another time....LOL.....

Grinder and I are headed for Georgia and hope to be home Monday....

Enjoy your "Glass full" weekend....

good morning to you. I'm supposed to be up and out putting up a ramp. I have to cut my favorite bush by the front door. It's been there for all my 29 years here, by the door, decorated at Christmas, but it is in the way there, its only crime. it loves living and is forever green. It is also going to be hard to kill in physical ways. wish me strength to exercise my will and not have a chain saw accident.

".....but I did run with a pair once...."

...women that is...not scissors, I hear that can be dangerous....

I will be glad to help this coming Saturday.

Good Morning Sandra! We continue to play blog tag...

{{{{{{Sandra}}}}} Hope you're having a GREAT Labor Day. I always enjoy ALL of your blogs. I still can't wait for your book to come out! I'm counting down the months. {hug}

Beth

Sandra, I just want to wish you an early HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!! If I don't do it today, odds are I will forget tomorrow, LOL.

I had no clue you wrote on DivineCaroline.com! I love that website!

I did have a nice Holiday weekend! How about yourself? I'm just sad to say that it's over and I'm back to work! I will be happy when it is Friday again because the weekend is the only time I get to spend with my boyfriend. The week gets pretty lonely at times.

Sandra...not to pull you in to any "dramatic" event here on Golo...I know there is enough all ready.....

But one of our own long time members has seen fit to block me. I can not imagine why and would only wish to apologize if I said anything offensive.

If it would not be too much to ask....shoot "Sessy" a message and ask her if I have indeed offended her somehow. By now you know that I try very hard to be a contributing member of this network and can't imagine what I may have said or done to make her take this action....

You are a true voice of reason, honesty, and virtue....coming from you, express my apology if I did let something slip.....I can't imagine what though.....

Good Morning,just thinking about you and all the nice things you do.Wishing you a nice day and hope you are having good week..

"Sessy is a sweet girl, I don't think she would just block you for no apparent reason. :)"

I agree, but if there was a reason, I would like to apologize....still can't think of one though....:)

Hi Sandra !

OMG thanks for that message! I didnt know he was blocked!!!!!

I feel terrible now. I was prolly blocking on some troll and got him by mistake!

All is GREAT this way! I see you have a blog for hope sale coming up AND a birthday????

You are welcome.Just keeep up the good work.We need more people like you.:)

Happy Birthday

We are doing fairly well, thank you Sandra. Congratulations on your book, I hope it sells well.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SANDRA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HOPE you have yourself a GREAT day! Never told you this but in the 2 years I have been on Golo, you are a asset to this site!

{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{Sandra}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}

I hate I missed the blog, as I was most likely at work. However, it is technically the 11th now, so Happy belated birthday to one of the sweetest, most kind hearted ladies I know!

{{{{{[hugs}}}}}

Beth

Missed you again...getting up too late...I have to nip that in the bud...Have a great day!

You rock lady! Just want you to know that...

"Juan - it's actually quite a shame it has to come down to this kind of exchange in here. On a day when we all should recognize the benefits of being united as a nation, people still see it fit to lash out at people they barely know. This kind of attitude is exactly what makes us all vulnerable" - Sandra

I agree with you 1000%

You are so welcome. Hope you had a great day yesterday. I was running late this morning and did not get to get on.

things have been going great. i have been pretty busy with work and everything lately, but that's getting much better now. yep..the wedding is fast approaching...nov 21.

how have things been your way?

Hi Sandra! Wonderful to hear from you! I had a difficult July with the death of two loved ones and then I had to move at the beginning of August (hence the bad number). So, I've had a busy summer to say the least. Ode2Joy told me there's a yard sale tomorrow. I hope to make it out there; it's always such a positive experience to hang out with everyone! Take care! =)

'Coffee (with creamer and sugar), marlboro lights, books, notepad and pens, a lighter to start a fire.'

fo real? sounds like the stuff i would take. didn't know that you smoke. don't worry, i do too. have a nice nite.

I am sorry that I missed the yard sale. I have not been up here much at all and I did not see the blog until this morning. I hope that you raised a lot of money.
