Hi Everyone:)

Sandi-It's great to read a post from you that you are forcing yourself to be more sociable and visiting two different neighbor's on two different days.  I think it will do a world of good for all of you.  This is a very difficult time in my life right now.  Some days I don't think I can go on even one more minute. 
I never heard of yellow pea soup.  I have heard of pea soup and that was never anything I could eat. 

Boston-I'm happy to hear that you had dinner with your son.  I would put out the invitation for both the boys for Thanksgiving dinner at your house.  When I got married and moved out of the house my parents had an adjustment period they went through as well.  They were use to me making noise and my routine that I had and then when I moved out everything was so quiet. 

Donna-((((thinking about you))))....it is going to take time to accept the loss of your mother.  I know it took me three years to finally come to terms with it when I lost mine. 

As for me:  Dh and I went out with another couple tonight and we bought them dinner.  We had a nice time together.  It was nice to catch up.  My one sister was wondering if my Dh could take a look at my Dad's t.v. because his remote won't change the channels.  I thought he needed new batteries but Dh said he needs the original remote that goes to that t.v.  Dh and I took my Dad out to walk around in a few stores.  Then took him for a sundae.  Normally I go to visit him on Sunday but the remote issue was bugging me.  I'll see how going Saturday rather than Sunday works on me.  This is so difficult and I end up crying for several days then when I get a grip and go visit him again the process starts all over again. 

Did any of you see or rent the movie "The Heat" if not and you want a good laugh from the beginning of the movie to the end.....rent that.  Don't even stop to use the bathroom or to pop popcorn because every minute of that movie is hilarious.  Well I hope that you all had a great day.  I wish you a restful and peaceful night of sleep.  I will talk with you tomorrow.
