Good Morning Campers..
Has it really been over 4 months since my last post? Wow..no excuses...just caught up in the day to day wheel of life and the convenience of Face Book I guess... I miss writing ..it helps clear my head and I enjoy reading more than a quick status update...
The Summer is over although here in Florida we will have weeks more of warm weather..there have been a couple of cool mornings and it gets us all excited..after months of having to run the Air-Conditioner and either be inside or in water it is wonderful to step outside and not immediately be drenched in sweat...
The summer was uneventful..we didn't go anywhere..we have a huge expense coming up with hubby's retirement.. we have friends and family coming from all over the world and we are throwing a huge party..then in January we are going to Las Vegas for my SIL's 50th Bday Bash..so we didn't plan any trips this summer..I have been to the beach a few times and of course have enjoyed the pool but I am looking forward to the cooler weather and wearing something other than shorts and Flip Flops..LOL
Those of you on FB are aware of the ongoing saga with my beautiful daughters boyfriend..he continues to control her life and over Labour Day weekend had called me from her cell phone and told me he was going to kill her and then come to our house and kill me..I called the police and they went to his house and he refused to let them see my daughter..finally after an hour and the poilce threatening to kick his front door in he let them see Rachel..of course she told them she was fine..all the time this was going on he repeatedly called my phone ..over 47 times in an hour and as the police were leaving his house he told me "you dumb bitch I will just kill her when they leave" I filed a report and the sate of Florida prosecuted him..they issued a warrant for his arrest for stalking and harrassing phone calls..he only spent one night in Jail..ny daughter bailed him out and he has plead not guilty..so dumb because we have the phone records and the cop witnessed it..he is trying to say that it was my daughter calling as it was her phone..my daughter still lives here..she works 10 hour days and I think this is her only safe place so I will not kick her out although she is barely talking to us..she's mad because I had him arrested...why isn't she mad at him for harrassing me? I will probably go to my grave not understanding her devotion to him...I know love is blind but this is beyond that...I am very upset about it all and have some pretty low days..anyone who knows me knows what my family means to me and this has put such a rift between us.I just hope one day she will see the light and thank me for what I did and that through all the hate I never turned my back on her...
My son is doing great. .his job at the Property Maintenance company is going really well he has his own crew now..he still works 2 nights a week at Mc Donalds too for his gas money...I am so glad that things finally turned around for him..
As for me and hubby we are plodding along..his retirement will be here before we know it and then a new chapter begins..he is looking for another job of course..he is only 52 and not ready to completely retire yet..one job prospect is overseas for an entire year..BUT the payoff is $180,000.00 Tax free..if he took that he would never have to work another day in his life..we could pay off every single bill we have AND bank $100,000.00..kinda hard to turn your back on that! No pressure! LOL
Well that catches you up in Lyn's world..I am not sure if anyone still reads blogs..I sure remember a time when I never went a day without reading them all! I admit those days are over but sometimes like today I miss them...
Have a great Sunday!
