COMMON GROUND COFFEE HOUSE #63

I'm so sorry, Diane.

T is going through problems at his job, so I fully understand the worry you must be going through. If T were without work for even a month, we'd be in serious trouble.

But, God provides and has reasons why he allows us to go through uncertainty.

 

It's horrible! Jim lost his full time job over 3 years ago and first worked part time for the guy. They finally had to let him go completely. He's worked temp jobs, night jobs, dayjobber jobs for temp agencies, 3 jobs at a time. He's working 2 jobs right now. A full time job and a job working with pianists and other musicians. That's the part time job. We now owe 2 mortgage payments.

It's so hard to be our age and have to face this.

 

Diane, I hope things get better for yall real soon. Thats really a shame.

We had a good day here. The girls and I went looking for "indian rocks" (arrowheads) down the road, but it was a little too muddy. Then after piano lessons, we took the babysitters home and looked at Christmas lights. They are so pretty and the girls are just in awe. Now they are tucked in snoozing, the kitchen is done, my tea is hot and my cream cheese dessert is chillin' in the fridge.

Hope everyone has a good day tomorrow, especially Diane. I know it sounds easy when people tell you "God will provide", but I know that you know its true. He has carried us thru many a slim time and I know he will take care of you, too. He is the orchestrator of everything.
Night,
Tater

 

I ended up accomplishing quite a bit in spite of my lack of motivation.

Both blouse are embroidered, supper cooked(notice I didn't say the kitchen is done, it can wait till tomorrow), kids homework is done, and between my trip to the thrift store and the one to Wally World my oldest once again has clothes to wear to church, and shoes too!

I hope she has finally stopped growing for a while. At 12 she is 5'7" and 125 lbs. She and I can just about wear the same clothes, only she doesn't like mine!

Time for bed......Night, night.

 

"Neither was there any among them that lacked..." Acts 4:34. I fail to understand why the large church you so faithfully serve does not offer some assistance. This too is ministry, and charity, as we say, begins at home.

Nevertheless, God is faithful. I firmly believe that.

Cheers,

Jim

 

... I don't know but I will help keep my eye on it and add my voice to the cacaphony of sounds of those defending the faith once delivered unto the saints. Touche'

...now I know why your post tally is so high, Dr. Bob. What else does one do when it is 18 degrees outside and one is already a grandparent? Of course, that is besides shoveling snow.

 

Diane, didn't mean to leave you and Gib out. You are WWAAAAYYYYYY up there too. At my rate of hunting and pecking on the keyboard, I'm sure that only God's gift of eternal life is my only hope of catching you guys, only we won't need computers then will we? As for Dr. Bob, I don't see why anyone would want to leave beautiful 18 degree Wyoming and go on a cruise, do you?

 

It's cool here, but not unbearable. By the time I go to work a short sleeve shirt should be enough.

Going to the eye doctor today. The only thing I don't like about that is when they blow air in your eye.

 

Good Morning all, and Mama.

Ma - let me know if ya want me to help today. I have some grocery shopping to do but am free other than that.

A little laundry, a little grocery shopping. All to do on a chilly 26 degree day. I gotta look for something that helps get rid of cat urine odor. I tell ya I dunno what's wrong with these 2 MALE cats. My FEMALE cat isn't doing it but have caught the 2 boys. There's no reason for it that is for sure. Drat the behavior problems, if they were kids I'd swat them on the backside but these two just give dirty looks!

Well, time to start some laundry and get my breakfast eaten.

TTYL & HAGD

 

Shawna, I have a formula that gets rid of cat urine and it only costs about $1.00 to make. Email me if you want it and I'll send it to you.

Morning all! Rushing around today. I have little Jack at 11:00 until about 1:00. Ty and Nick are playing and watching t.v. so I need to hop in the shower pretty quickly here. Back later!
Diane

 

I know a REALLY good way to get rid of cat urine. Its free and you'll never have the problem in the future

 

Good Morning everyone!

Today is nice and bright, so I should have a much better day. Precious has me pegged to make her a new pair of pants for school. I have a nice piece of panne' for her that I found on Walmart's dollar a yard table. I have enough to make her pants and a blouse, so if she's lucky she'll get a whole outfit.

Right now though, it is time for coffee with bagels and cream cheese.

 

Ok Diane I'll give ya a shout out.

And BTW not funny about the permanent solution.

As these cuddle with me and even have one that wipes my tears when I cry. well, he puts his paw on it anyway. One sleeps on my pillow, one next to me under my covers with his head on the pillow, and the 3rd sleeps on the small of my back. Needless to say I am never cold when I sleep! I think it is just a behavioral problem with the boys since the girl has only been in the house 6 months.

 

I had a cat when I was a kid that did that. I assumed it was a territorial thing. We eventually had to throw the couch out and the cat with it. Couldn't stand the smell. It doesnt bother some folks that month, and I guess ya have to weight the benefits and disadvantages.

Sue, hope you are feeling better!
Diane, I hope yall are ding better, too!!

Gotta go get some groceries, too.
See yall later.

 

Dubbs didn't start that until about 6 months before he died. I cleaned the litter boxes at least once a day and used the crystal stuff mixed with Scoop Away. He'd just stop and go so I don't think he could control himself anymore. Poor kitty. At least his suffering is over.

It is REALLY windy today but 42°. I've not been outside. The 20 month old arrived a few minutes ago and I had the 3 year old on the potty chair. He's NOT happy about the potty chair but mom says he'll go at home all the time. They just leave him bottomless there tho and I can't do that with all the little girls!

 

C4K(Roger's alias!!) says, "I know a REALLY good way to get rid of cat urine. Its free and you'll never have the problem in the future."

Gibby and Blackbird are "aaaaaaalllllllllll ears" good buddy!!!!!!!

 

Well, it is actually a pre-emptive strike and involves providing meat to the local chinese take-away .

I say no more .

 

IGNORING YOU....

It's LOUD here today! The two little ones both need naps but one mom should be back really soon and I only have one porta-crib anyhow! One will leave, one go down before the other four come. I have to feed them tonight but I'm going to give them soup and crackers.
