Good Morning Campers...
It's been a while again....so much going on but nothing really...does that even make sense?? The dog days of summer tend to blend into one long day....hot..humid...thunderstorms in the afternoon...days by the pool...or in the air-conditioning...trips to the beach...the lake....long lazy days....
My brain is on overload lately .here are a few of the things running through it....
My worries....
Guam...2 years ...for real? 2 years..cannot even fathom how this is going to work...
Ryan...2 months after graduation..no job..no motivation..."it's summer Mum"..
Job..me..what do I want to do?? Full time? Part time?? when to start looking...how will I manage work and the house and everything on my shoulders..alone...
family..hubbys..drive me crazy...it's all about poor hubby...what about me??
Friends...trying to keep everyone happy....when did I sign up for that role??
Weight...will I ever conquer that demon??
Finances...economy....will we really be okay???
Yard..yes the flipping yard keeps me awake at night...so much work..will I be able to cope with that on my own??
My blessings...
hubby...and the sacrifices he makes for us...
my kids...if they weren't around I would really be a nut job....
being able to take this summer off and spend it with the family...
lazy summer days ...although I may be a bit bored at the moment I know how lucky I am and there are far worse things I could be doing like still working for that terrible woman!!
friends..although the juggling act gets to me I love my girlies...
Beach weekend...August 7th...just the girls...4th year in a row...;-)
Blogging...I don't write often enough but I am reading whatever you write... trust me...;-)
That's it this morning...

I'm always glad to see a post from you Lyn, however infrequent and whatever it's about. I'm glad too that you run your thoughts past us. True, we can't really do anything to help - nobody wants to wave their hubby off for a couple of years - but, for my money, yes you will manage all the things you mentioned. Course you will. And anyway, does it really matter if it's not quite as perfectly done as usual?
Go easy on yourself and remember you're a Brit!
love, Angie, xxx [[BIG HUG]]
Keep the faith ! All will be well. I've been on my own for many years now and yes, it can be done! Not the way I'd like always, but being on your own isn't impossible. Sorry you have so many concerns but hang in there it will all work out. 2 years seems an eternity but it will fly by and before you know it your hubby will be home. Just keep counting those blessings.
I agree with my mate Angie first comment Lyn and every word she has put here.Guess great minds think alike.Wish I was closer I'd help you with the yard and be in my glory.Leaving you to the pool etc..Enjoy whilst you are still able the time will soon pass by.It don't seem two minutes since I came back home from the seaside to live alone without my Rooster and it's 18months already.Time passes too quickly Lyn so don't wish it away.Take Care God Bless Kath xx
Hang in there. I know it's all overwhelming at times. I too wish I lived close to you....I'd help out. Just remember even though we aren't close....we are all here for you as your support group.
I feel ya. The funny thing is we can do it, because we have no choice.
Does your son and my daughter know each other? I swear Amber better a job soon otherwise I am taking her phone. I would take the car, but she needs to go to school.

Wow, you do have a lot happening. Focus on you... Can't you go to Guam? It might be exciting? Then take Ry with and kick him in the arse to get crackin at a job or school! LOL True Beauty is fine of course and you can visit? I am sure it will work out however it is meant to... Thank you for your sacrifice for all of us. I am keeping you in my prayers...
be well...
Some good, some bad. We perservere.
Glad to see that you're enjoying your summer vacay. Nice pictures you posted.
It's tough times out there in this economy. I take all the overtime I can get and treat each paycheck like it's my last.
I hope that everything works out for you, and glad to see you are counting your blessings. Most of us are lucky in one way or another.
Btw, Real Housewives of Atlanta is on tomorrow. I will be watching and I hope you are too.
