I am so sorry to hear about your furball, yes we do love them. 16 days does not seem like much of a break! I only blog once a week, maybe you should just blog less and enjoy it more?

Ups and downs are a part of living but the way you react to things is what makes life good or not so good. You should go ahead and get that cart BTW although if you decide to travel my way some day and hit the Springfield show, I got a similar one there for $14.00!!! Just sayin'. Hope all will be well with little Oreo, I can't wait to cuddle him in person in a few weeks!!!!Yeah!!!Hugs, Pam<br />One more thing, what the heck is the fat potato s*#t, not very positive my dear girl.

Sometimes it is hard to know what we should share with our blogging friends, you always write from your heart but don't bring us down. I have had an interesting summer (see I used a positive word) and in conflict how to express that to my friends in blog world. I don't want to complain, who wants to read that. Although I must find a way to express what is going on and why I have been less than creative and very absent.<br />You set a wonderful example and I thank you for all your great posts. <br />Stay cool, you know my 70 degree door is always open. <br />KelleyTeacup Mosaicshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05635473294373670595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4469698968927427119.post-84681805381442957852010-08-06T23:47:47.961-05:002010-08-06T23:47:47.961-05:00Jodie~ I am so glad you have been taking a break! ...Jodie~ I am so glad you have been taking a break!

I think we must be tuned in to the same frequencies! It's been quite a while (more than 16 days for me) since I have done any posts and now I'm starting to feel guilty! I just have so many things going on right now and I really needed a break from blogging for a bit. I'm glad you are staying positive. We must you know, to keep ourselves happy. We really have so much in common!<br />Please know that I do think of you all the time, even if I don't come by as much as I would like.

I had to take a break and try to get my priorities in order. I was consumed with making everyone else happy and never considering my feelings. It hit me like a ton of bricks when I realized I wasn't having fun anymore and needed to reorganize my life. Like you, I have a wonderful husband who always stands by me, why he let me go as nuts as I had I am not sure...LOL...I am so sorry about your sweet Oreo and I know everything will work out fine with your son. I have been there and I learned it is better to let go and try to follow instead of trying to lead them forward when they know what their dreams are. It truly does work out in the end, they know in their heart we will be there waiting when they are ready. I love the beautiful goodies you have shared with us and I have missed you big time.<br />Love yah sweetie.<br />Hugs,<br />DebbyDebbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13688035819888769006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4469698968927427119.post-22024567393175303952010-08-06T09:31:06.304-05:002010-08-06T09:31:06.304-05:00Oh, Jodie Le J, I'm happy to see you!

I do hope that all is well as can be in your sweet cajun world. Now, about that McKinney thing, I had no choice. No voice. Those girls are loads of fun, so I think I kinda like their spur of the moment style!
