Sara- Words can't take away the pain you and your family are feeling right now, but I hope you know that all of us are here for you. I hope that peace comes over you and fills your heart as you go through this difficult time. Think about all the special memories that your family has shared with your brother and hang on to them.

Huge hugs!

~ Kirsten

Sara..........I send you another email from my email address done here so that you can message directly instead of my hubby forwarding it. You have my sincere sympathies on your loss. As I said before, call me if you need ANYthing. Hugs to you.


I just can't watch the news today. My husband's job is in the coal industry (he's a geologist for a consulting mining engineering firm in PA....basically he helps write up the state mining permits), and his job is on the line in this election. So I'm watching the House marathon on USA.

Good idea. Best to stay away from it until it is all over. No reason to stress yourself out all day over it with all the polls and people on TV saying they know so and so is going to win. It is enough to drive you crazy.

By the way - House is the best show!

But chin up troops, we must carry on, in everything that we do and confront!

Here's something for a nightcap....
Ecclesiastes 3

A Time for Everything

1 There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under heaven:

2 a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,
3 a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
4 a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
5 a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain,
6 a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,
7 a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak, 8 a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace.

boot camp luv to me peeps

I am so sorry Crazyma. I know there are no words anyone can say that will ease your grief but just know we are here for you and if there is ANYTHING I can do please let me know. I am keeping you and your family in my prayers.

I would like to sincerely thank you all for your wonderful and caring support during this time...
it really means a lot knowing that *peeps* from all over share condolences to our family. I will let them know too. I don't have the plans yet, but am getting ready to go on my end as soon as I know. I have got to run out and do a couple of errands meanwhile....

Life does go on and HOW ARE all of you?!
Is Mr. Lacey recovering nicely?
And how is Baby Hammy {now isn't that a cute nickname?!}

And Raising, did the papers come thru and is Cartus in control??!

I sure hope everyone will get some action this coming weekend from folks who have been sitting on the fence!!

Buyers paying all that rents
Why you sitting on the fence!!
Get you all some commonsense
or Crazy will smack you full of dents!

buy !! it's the American way, heh heh

later.......

I am glad to hear your hubby's better, pretty soon he can join you for a martini!

Kristine I hope your little one is feeling better too!

I am with the rest of you I can't stand watching the results till the very end it makes me to nervous lol!!! I will be watching my HGTV (GASP) I know, a lot of the stuff on there is laughable but I do get good ideas about decorating which is something I love to do!
I am taking the day off from cleaning, I figure no one is going to be house hunting today.

Crazyma I love your poem and truer words were never spoken!!!

Thank you so much for your concern over my son. He is doing much better today, even went to preschool. He still has a pretty rough cough but his energy seems to be back on track. I don't know whether that is a good thing or not.

Sara I am so sorry for loss. I have no special insight to give you since there is really nothing to say. I do believe your brother is in a better place and he is looking down at his whole family. He is it at peace. It is us who are left behind and don't know the answers yet that grieve. May god bless you all dear Sara.
