Thursday Morning Early

[Barbzeee]

There are no pictures as this morning I've decided to take a long break.. Our family has many issues running all at the same time and I with my Critters have a few as well... Thanks for those that cared to respond..or even understood what I wrote..

I've enjoyed doing all the pictures in the attempt to brighten your days.. as some times they can be hard and lonely..

Now it's my time to pay attention to matters that are dear to my heart.. Most of you do know that we had a horrific murder in our family and that is an on going situation .. Very hard and difficult at times to live with...but never the less nothing we can do to change it... However, I will tell you Justice is sure blind !

I hope all your Adventures are Great...and from time to time I'll stop in...but as for now..I'm going to park my rig on the side..

God Bless

Zeee

Big hugs to you, Barb, and to your family. I am so sorry you are going through such pain. We will miss you terribly on here, and I am sure we will all think of you each day and send strength your way. Please take good care of yourself, and help your family any way you are able. Know that we are all here for you, whenever you get a chance to stop in. If things seems to get overwhelming for you, know that we are only too glad to listen to your feelings, even if the only thing we can do is empathize and sympathize with words.

Hug those little puppies tightly, and enjoy each second you can spend with them. Also keep your family as close as you can, and hug them too. We will all be here.

Love from me and Molly

Barb know there has to be a lot going on right now, you always bring a bit of brightness to everyone's day. Don't think we always tell you on here that your efforts mean a lot to everyone.

Take very good care of yourself and do stay in touch.

Just know that we are here for you, as you were here faithful for us each day. I know what a tremendous effort and labor of love and time it was. It's time to take care of yourself and relieve yourself of some of those responsibilities, but do please reach out to your friends here. We will miss your morning posts and graphics...surprise us with one now and then when you feel like it, ok?

Lots of ((((hugs)))) to you. I'll be praying for you and your family as I know it has been and still is a very difficult thing to live with day by day.

Morning Barbz, definately take time for you, you deserve it. We love your cheerful
morning post and the art is so much fun, but we know when its time for a break,
its just that!, TIME for a break. We will miss you but hope you pop in now and
then to say hello. I totally understand the "matters of the heart" thing, I'm sure
we all do and we'll hold down the fort as before until you feel up to blessing us once
again. Hang in there dear, and big hugs for ya.

Morning All....We've landed at our friends house near Mt. Dora, Fl., for a couple of days.....then it's on to Georgia on Sunday.....

Barb, take all the time you need to cope with the issues you are dealing with, but remember we are here for you when you need to vent.....so please check in with us every once in awhile....Of course, we will miss your morning run-thru and updates, but as before, we'll all try to keep the coffee and breakfast munchies going for ya' until you are ready to take over again.....

Now, I've got to refresh my coffee and get the body going for the day.....plan to do the "spring house cleaning" of our home on wheels....

Have a great day, all.....

Good Morning Sistahs!

I'm getting on here late this morning. I have a doc appointment at 10:30 so figured I had better get myself all around before getting lost on the puter. Going back to the docs to get the BP checked again. Last week when I was there she doubled up on my pills so that I am taking one in the morning and one at night. She also put me on fluid pills because my ankles were so swollen. Well the ankles are still puffed up twice their size. Good thing I have my crock knockoffs to wear or I would probably be going barefoot because even my feet are all puffy. ~sigh~ By time 9pm rolls around my ankles have got to the point that they are not 'painful' but very uncomfortable. I hope to he77 we can get this straightened out SOON!!!

Barb know that you are in my heart, my thoughts and my prayers. I am so sorry for what is going on in your corner of the world. I don't think that there's ever any understanding of it or why must it be. Take your break Hon, regroup and do must be done. Hold close to family, critters and yes friends too. We are all in your corner rooting for you. And we are all here for you when you feel the need. Please know and remember that there are a lot of shoulders here for you as needed. As best we can we will do whatever is needed to help carry the burden. We will miss you something wicked the days you don't post, but we all understand that home and family come first.

Hope everyone has a good day, stay safe.

Love to all

Zeee, God bless and take care of yourself. Please don't be gone too lone as we'll all miss you.

[Cedar518]

Zeee,.... hugs and good wishes to you and yours. I can't even imagine all the heartache your family is enduring now. Take care of YOU!

To all the other sisters here,... I hope you have a great day,... the sun is shining and that's enough to make a good day for me!

[BirdbyBird]

Zeee....thank you for all you have shared and contributed to help the rest of us keep together and focused. It is your turn to maybe draw some energy back from us. Take care and do whatever your body, mind and soul needs to do......And hug those critters close. People will sometimes, as part of conversation, mention the therapeutic effect animals have....I always just smile and say, why, yes, and I have been self medicating for years.....Some of us have more "meds" than others. Take care, much love....

[Carolinagal]

Good-morning, Barbz, I have wondered how you could do it all of this time, giving us cute little pictures to start our day and a very cheerful summary of the previous 24 hrs on here. That invoved a lot of time and work!!! Really started our days off with a chuckle or good laugh for the day, but I fear at a great expense to your well being with all that you have going in your life. Your family issues , the situation with the 911 issues there where you live, your aging furbabies, and your health issues and top of all of this your hubby is miles and miles away. How you stayed so cheerful and happy sounding for all of us, is beyond me!!.

When I have pressing issues, its hard for me to be on here with any opinion or comment that might help someone or even sound good. I read and enjoy and when I feel like it make a comment. Hopefully you will too, when you feel like it. Or just read some of the happenings and get a chuckle as we all do. In other words enjoy this forum, I think its been a lot of work and you haven't really been able to enjoy and have fun on here as we all have. So now its your turn, do what you want , when you want ,on here as we all do, but enjoy it and the love we share as a group of Sistah's, that really are concerned about each other. You are loved and known more then any of us, besides maybe Beth on this forum and we enjoy every word you do write,

Whether you ever take up the chore of this special thread, doesn't really make a difference when placed against the issues of your health and happiness. Just please know we are here for you, and we do hope you will enjoy and JOIN IN THE FUN here, when you feel up to it.

Take Care , Barbz. and God Bless
We love you

Carol

[Paulette]

Zee, take care of you and know that we are here for you if and whenever you need us. Wish there was more I could do or say to take away the burdens you are carrying. Sending lots of (((((((hugs))))))).

[bluepinecones]

Zee -- Do take care of yourself. Thank you for all the joy you have contributed here. Please know we are all here for you when you are ready.

I had an unexpected visit from my sister yesterday. We spent a most pleasant afternoon together, a rare treat as our visits are not always so smooth.

So far it has been a quite and peaceful week with beautiful weather; hoping it will stay that way...

[Sparkle]

Barbz, you will me missed. I hope you will find time to read some of the posts and respond when you feel like it. We all look forward to having you back with us "fulltime" as soon as you have gathered your physical and mental strength.
Now what am I going to read with my morning cup of tea? It was like getting a newspaper every morning. I miss you already and you aren't even gone.

[Bethers]

((((((((((((((((((((((((((( Zeee )))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) big hugs sent to you. In case you don't know it - your morning threads are greatly appreciated - even if we don't always say so. That said, they take a long time to do the way you do - and I've always been amazed that you could keep up here daily as you do most days. Wow. I know it was a labor of love for you - but obviously too time-consuming. Yes to what all those have said before me - and especially to what Carol (carolinagal) said- please, just stop in as all of us do - without feeling obligated to do the morning post and graphics. Please don't be a stranger. And IF and when you do want to take back up your synopsis (even on an occasional basis) that will be totally up to you.

Sparkle and I said goodbye today to Karen and Carol who headed to Rockport right down the road Carol and hubby Bill will be getting to Rockport today also and then we'll all meet up again - probably in Rockport later today. Can't keep us too far apart for too long Walked Peaches (with Sparkle) down the beach - Peaches played and played in the water - and really wanted to play with a bunch of dogs she saw along the way. I think Sparkle told me we walked over 4 miles. Right now Peaches is napping and in a short time I'm headed to play poker.

Hope you all have a wonderful day!
