Apparently, this woman doesn't share your opinion. I am ok, I guess, but the fact that my mother shares my home (mind you she is independent, healthy, is not here 2x's a week, very accepting of me and my friends/gf etc) and that I have a dog... well, that put the brakes on it. Wow... really?

Oh well, such is my love life recently....

on top of that, my dog has been ill the last 24 hours. Was trying to figure it out... finally I realized my mother had given her a steak bone from her dinner last night. Bella has a very sensitive tummy and cannot eat but very spacific things. So here I am, up late, washing her bedding, cooking rice and will have to get up early to cook her chicken (had to get it out of the freezer and is just starting to thaw) so she can have it for breakfast. She is still throwing up. I am exhausted! Only had Sunday afternoon off from working and will work straight through to the weekend. 2 jobs on tues and thursday. urrrrggggg

:ohm: Can somebody please help me find my happy place!!!



That's screwed up. Family comes first in my book. In fact I had this conversation with my hairdresser about dating and family. My family accepts anyone I date and some of my ex's stay in contact with me and them. Family is very important to me and truth is I'd rather be with family when i have time off work. So if my partner can't dial into this whole family thing then we won't be moving into the future. I also prefer to be with someone who has strong family ties but also know that some families are not as accepting as mine.

I'm sorry to hear about Bella. hugs she will be fine.

Ruthie I know how you feel, really I do. I've been a lone and single for a while now. I just refuse to settle. I prefer meeting everyone as friends and I'm slow going. Focus on your friendships and building deep wonderful bonds. Woman's space is just so nice sometimes. Make time for it. I'd love to meet up with you for something. You're not that far. Maybe a nice half way point some of us could meet up and enjoy the fall colors.

Be good to yourself. You're an amazing person.

ruthie14 10-02-2012 08:06 PM

Thanks everyone. It just gets so frustrating sometimes. Sachita... I totally agree with you. That is usually how I operate. I would love to meet you sometime. That sounds like fun!

Dyke... YOU are so right! I should have listened to you...but I really think the other one is NOT in market for a gf.

Bella is doing much better. Stayed up most of the night with her, changing the towels I put in her crate several times, washing them, cooking rice and chicken etc. Went to bed when I thought it had calmed down, but there was more in the am. So I did more laundry. She is feeling much better!!!!!!!!! No more problems today. Ate her rice and chicken with no problems. She is resting a lot, but that is probably a good thing. Mom is going to take her to the vet on Thursday to check her out. She was suposed to be 4 1/2 when we adopted her last year, but she has since gone totally blind from cateracts (sp?) and is having joint issues. My little girl is probably more like 12 or 13.

I think there is a picture of her in galleries.

ttyl,

Ruthie

welcome txdoc!! This is a fun spot for all us fine wine folks to hang out, converse, and such!! Everyone is welcome here!!!

Dance-with-me 10-02-2012 10:00 PM

OK, honest opinions requested: 53 yo wearing her roller derby shirt to her jeans-and-t-shirt high school gathering. Too attention seeking (though I mean it as only a combination of conversation-starting and "hell yeah I love derby!" not "look at me!" since I'm definitely not looking to be an attention-seeker in this crowd!) or cool? Honest responses, please - I'm packing tonight and trying to decide what to wear to this casual event!

Hi.
Oh ok. I was checking out the expeditie truckign jobs. and they seem you have to be an O/O.i dotn want to own a truck Im to new to get into that.
But I agree u have to do what u have to do..It is lonely out there I sooo hear u on that one.Stressful and exhausting..
I found out when I went out on the road. alot of woman think being a trucker is sexy !. who knew? but it is hard to find that one lady who can deal w u beaing away for so long.It woudl be nice to find a lady who shares the same job.Good luck out there and be safe..smiles..

Good Morning, Morning; I don't think we lose our femme cards. I was co-driving with a bio male who I trusted 1,000% and we had a blast! I had dreamed of co-driving with a partner, but that never happened...you know...life. Lol...

Abigail Crabby 10-03-2012 06:48 AM

How is it I never saw this thread before....

I certainly fit the criteria

Looks like it's for singles and not so singles

So I thought I'd drop in and say hello

Pull up a footstool and have a :tea:and see what's happening around here.
So good morning Lofters one and all....

clay 10-03-2012 07:29 AM

Morning Abigail! Pull up a seat! This is a great place to just chill, hangout, etc. I've never viewed this place in any light other than a social gathering place, no matter what one's status may be! So, come on in here, abbidabbi!! Ambiance is just perfect with the beautiful people here!!!
Have a good day everyone. I will be around later.....<smiles>

I'm allowed to be sleepy, it's nearly 11pm Wednesday for me. The cat is bothering the hell out of me - either she's hungry or she wants me to go to bed. Not sure if that's related to being 40+ or not but never mind right? :)

I'm ready for the weekend!

Ruthie

Heavenleahangel 10-04-2012 04:16 PM

Just popping in to say "Happy Thursday" to everyone! Any special plans for the weekend? I am working on winterizing my house this weekend and getting heavier blankets freshened up, flannels out, etc. Fall is definitely here in the great North East!

Mr.Nobody 10-04-2012 06:28 PM

Hey y'all...I have been spending a few minutes catching up on what I missed since I first came in...y'all are a busy bunch.
Morningstar...you flatter me
Sachita....you said go away, that made me laugh.

So...the weather here is turning, we had snow a few hours from here last night and this morning. It won't be long for here I suppose. I am actually looking forward to some snow, we didn't get much last year.

I have been single for close to two years now. I vascillate between the love of my life is still out there, and I am done with all that stuff. I guess it remains to be seen.

Too bad they don't have a speed dating thread....

Anyway, I just wanted to say hey again and thank you for the warm welcome.
