Weather is beautiful

MidoriMeadows · Post by **MidoriMeadows** » February 7th, 2006, 8:19 pm

It got sunny on Sunday and is supposed to stay that way all week! That sure cheers me up. Been busy at work. Been busy with business at home. Got the bike washed and pics shot. I'm going to tweak them in a bit and send them off to the guy who's selling it for me. Hopefully I'll get some money and get most of one of my credit cards paid off.

I bought a load of surplus the other day. Picked it up from the warehouse where my caps are stored. It must be warm cause last night I went out to get a box of caps and got stung by a wasp that must have come from the trailer. Now I'm itchy! Hope someone needs bicycle tire pumps, smoke detectors and a really cute kids book. Looking at a lot of toys, I need to price out the samples and see what they'll auction for. I decided I'm buying a container of nice caps. I sold all the ones I had for $20 ea. and have been getting requests. Also, the other ones that I sell tons of are almost gone so these would make a good replacement.

Life is moving forward. I feel pretty good. The sun helps. Leon has never spoken to me since he left, he did fax a couple notes and write one but just about the business of dismantling our household. I think I must be getting better, I'm more irritated with his immature, selfish behavior although I'm a little sad. I'm kinda enjoying the fact that I can do what I want. That shop has always been arranged according to what someone else wanted. Ex had his ideas and when I suggested anything else he told me I was stupid and it was his shop. Well now it's mine so I've been rearranging it to suit me. It's sorta fun. I'm making my house look like I want it to instead of what someone else tells me it should look like. I spend my money like I want to instead of how someone else tells me I should. I'm very conservative so it's not like I buy stupid things. More like I invest in stuff like the caps.

I'm tired of men telling me I'm dumb. I'm tired of men telling me I'm not as pretty as someone else. I'm tired of men telling me I just don't understand the complexities of business, cars, construction or just about anything else. Guess that's why I hang out with y'all, you're always respectful of me. I've always had men that told me I didn't understand and should do what they tell me yet somehow it was always me who accomplished everything while they sat in front of the tv telling me why I was nothing without them. Leon wasn't so bad but he had his moments, mostly my ex did that to me.

I think I scare some men but someday there will be someone who isn't afraid of me (and I promise not to whip out the knife) and doesn't try to stuff me into their mold. Ok, sorry, that sorta turned into a rant didn't it. But I feel better.

YOU GO GIRL !!!!! GOOD FOR YOU!!!!!! it ALWAYS helps to rant sometime..............

Well thank you Mark. I periodically just have to rant. I'm tired of being treated like crap. ExBF never spent my money on me, just on himself. After he left I bought myself a brand new sweater not from Goodwill, it was on sale, but I needed one since all of mine are worn out. Probably the nicest thing I've done for myself this last couple months is I bought a belt buckle (price western buckles and you know it wasn't cheap). I needed one and I ain't no one's buckle bunny.

Good Morning Sharon

Life is good.. Take a moment to think about all you have going for yourself, 2 beautiful daughters, real estate, and other assets. Those that talk you down are just jealous they don't have what you do!

You need to constantly remind yourself of that, and keep moving forward & never look back.. I'm sure you are a beautiful loving person, and that's all that counts.. One of these days Mr right will come along..

I want to keep seeing that beautiful smile on your face

Ata Girl Sharon, It's about time you decided to vent!!

Doc, just gave you some priceless advise.

When you get a chance read Proverbs 31 it is what God considers a virtueous women. It sounds to me that you naturaly accomplish the majority of this.

MidoriMeadows · Post by **MidoriMeadows** » February 8th, 2006, 10:51 am

Thanks guys.

I always have tried to live up to Prov 31. My big problem was I didn't value myself enough. The best thing Leon ever did for me was to force me to value me. When we first started going out he was very good to me and that really helped after so many years of my ex. Everything he's done/not done in the last couple months has just made me a much stronger person. I really do feel a lot better. Right now I'm just enjoying doing my own thing. Sure it's a little lonely but that's ok.

Post by **Doc** » February 8th, 2006, 11:04 am

Sharon.. You need to post a photo of yourself..

MidoriMeadows · Post by **MidoriMeadows** » February 8th, 2006, 12:20 pm

Why, I get to look at your cute face now!

Not the greatest pic but I rarely have any taken. This is from about a year ago when I was at my parents' house.

markn · Post by **markn** » February 8th, 2006, 12:44 pm

Doc is right big time, people r jealous, thats what makes them run other people down, guys r very bad at that, you will meet a guy that is happy with himself and his life, and he will be HAPPY for u and the things u have ,not jealous. Dont let em get u down!!!!!!!!

Sharon, Whos that there foxy asian senoreeta!

MidoriMeadows · Post by **MidoriMeadows** » February 8th, 2006, 1:17 pm

Your boys are such cuties!

Right now I think it's better be alone. Either I'll pick another shit or if it's a great guy I just might not be ready yet and that isn't fair. I'm sort of enjoying it and yes, I'm being nice to myself.

j-ainc · Post by **j-ainc** » February 8th, 2006, 1:45 pm

Yep, Yep (pride coming out) You can sure see where they got their good looks!!

OK, I want to know what these 3 are doing.

j-ainc · Post by **j-ainc** » February 8th, 2006, 2:37 pm

Don't know but the one in the middle is smiling!

MidoriMeadows · Post by **MidoriMeadows** » February 8th, 2006, 2:51 pm

Arghh. My hand is going numb. That bite on my arm is really swollen. Guess I'd better go get some benedryl or something.

j-ainc · Post by **j-ainc** » February 8th, 2006, 3:28 pm

JR, says crown is good with

anything!

Post by **Doc** » February 8th, 2006, 3:42 pm

Sharon, You look Great!!

And i like those Headlights Too

MidoriMeadows · Post by **MidoriMeadows** » February 8th, 2006, 4:14 pm

Naughty boy!

My hand isn't numb anymore. Wish I'd had some Crown. I iced my arm and it feels a little better.

Post by **Doc** » February 8th, 2006, 5:47 pm

I'm sure JR will share his Crown with ya..

MidoriMeadows · Post by **MidoriMeadows** » February 8th, 2006, 10:44 pm

He's such a good boy for sharing.

Hadn't you ever seen a pic of me before? It's not often that I post them but I think I put 2 up on EBM over the last couple years.

I figure some day I should go to one of those studio places and have them make me all up pretty. I never wear makeup so it would be different.

If the gas don't come down where it should be = 1.30

JR may have to save a little Crown for the tank.

MidoriMeadows · Post by **MidoriMeadows** » February 8th, 2006, 11:48 pm

At the rate gas is going it will be cheaper to run booze. Maybe not Crown yet but maybe cheap blended Canadian whisky.

JR · Post by JR » February 9th, 2006, 10:58 pm

Did I hear someone mention Crown? Don't mind if I shoot one back, do ya?

You all know I'll share my Crown with anyone, but I'll walk first before I waste it in a gas tank.

Doc, for that cold, ask the MD for a prescription of hydroxizine. It's an antihistamine/anti-depressant (dual purpose medication). Gets rid of the sniffles, puts you to sleep quickly, and you'll sleep like a baby all night.

I've had hives since last June, last month a new doctor gave me some Enbrel to take. It seems to work really good, because previously, I was taking 27 pills a day to keep the hives away. Now I'm down to just a few pills and vitamins per day. I take the shot every 5 days, cost is $193.75 per shot. Lucky I have medical insurance, co-pay is $30 for 4 shots.

Have to use a big-ass needle when I take it, so I pour a little Crown where I'm going to give the shot and then a big healthy slug of Crown. I tell ya, the stuff will cure anything.

MidoriMeadows · Post by **MidoriMeadows** » February 9th, 2006, 11:11 pm

I bet the Crown would cure this lonliness. Wine just doesn't always cut it. NIghts have been tough.

j-ainc · Post by **j-ainc** » February 10th, 2006, 2:34 pm

I guarantee that if you pound down a couple of GOOD shotz and hit the local pub you won't be lonely for long!

And the night won't be near as tough! Might even hold you over a week or two, Depends on the shotz though!

MidoriMeadows · Post by **MidoriMeadows** » February 10th, 2006, 3:06 pm

I hate going to bars to meet people. It's fun once in a while to hang out with some friends but I despise people who go to bars to pick people up. I've also found I find casinos sorta pathetic. It's not the once in a while entertainment gambler, it's the ones who live to gamble. Now you see why I have problems meeting men. I'm way too picky.

j-ainc · Post by **j-ainc** » February 10th, 2006, 3:57 pm

Stay picky it's worth it!

The last time I was single was for 3 yrs, I started praying for a life time mate.
But I pray for specifics, I won't go into that right now! But the only thing I didn't get was a brunette, Everything else is as I asked for or better! I guess God in all his wisdom thought I couldn't handle a Brunette so he gave me a red head.

Here Guys and Gals this ought to lift your spirits.

I'm sure there is an album in the mix sometime!

j-ainc · Post by **j-ainc** » February 10th, 2006, 4:15 pm

Here is Carrie (@ the end) Her Dad and Jessica (step daughter)

MidoriMeadows · Post by **MidoriMeadows** » February 10th, 2006, 6:05 pm

Ya gotta pick a brighter pic. What I can see she looks beautiful. Of course the kids are cuties as always.

I don't get to have sex for 3 yrs?????

j-ainc · Post by **j-ainc** » February 10th, 2006, 6:21 pm

Well you could always be your own best friend!

Carrie doesn't let me take many pictures, But I may have one of her laying on the couch.

j-ainc · Post by **j-ainc** » February 10th, 2006, 6:23 pm

lets see how this one turns out!

j-ainc · Post by **j-ainc** » February 10th, 2006, 6:24 pm

Ehh, I'll try for another picture

MidoriMeadows · Post by **MidoriMeadows** » February 10th, 2006, 8:53 pm

From what I can see she is really beautiful and I'm sure she's just as beautiful inside. You are both so blessed to have found eachother.

j-ainc · Post by **j-ainc** » February 11th, 2006, 9:31 am

Yup, Yup we are

But it only took us each 2 wrongs to get it right!
