  karla and i came home for a quick shower and a change of clothes.

  we ask that you keep our mother and our family in your prayers.

  we posted a few weeks ago that our mother had been diagnosed with pancreas cancer and was given 6-18 months with chemo.

  (((((NoIdea & Myself))))) I am so sorry that your mother and your family are in the midst of such pain...but like all experiences in life, good can (and has already) come of this. Your family has come together, and I am sure that is something that makes your mother feel at peace. My thoughts are with you, and please know that we all care about you and are here for you to do whatever we can.

  2. friends

  some people need to be surrounded with"friends" to make themselves feel good.others love their independence and prefer to be away from others.

  what type of person are you?

  or do you tend to be away from the action?

  My feelings about people fluctuate--depending upon who the person is. Some people scare me, and I use my magic powers to escape their senseless chatter. Other people...you know, the disillusioned intellectual type...fill me with passion and a desire to be really affectionate.

  Oh, Neon! That IS a happy ending! I'm happy for you Those are the stories romance novels are made of...

  Editted To Add: You are right, Minimus. I can't believe they convinced me that being a sheep was a good thing. HA! My existentialist friends would giggle heartily over that one.
