G'luck with the schooling. As you well know, kids do wonderfully when
you just get them pointed in the right direction, watch carefully for
their strengths and weaknesses, and allow them to learn. Amazing what
they will do when you don't try to stifle their natural curiousity and
creativity.


Thank you. I'm hoping it will work out well for the child's sake. I
have a long relationship with home schooling...


Is this the wreck you mentioned, oh shoot, what three/four months ago?
When you provided care for a while? I don't think so, but I have not
been a frequent flyer here lately.


I think you are re-calling the one that my MIL was in. MIL's wreck was
a week or 2 before my great aunt's...


Glad to read you again...Been praying for ya buddy. Don't know what's
going on, but for some reason, keeping ya in my prayers. Hope you
don't mind...it sure can't hurt ya none.
Give me a holler sometime..


You kinda took me by surprise here, girl.


I kinda figured that....


Hmmmmmm........so perhaps you are behind a chain of circumstances that
have me giving a closer look at myself! ;-)


Hey, that never hurts anyone! A little self reflection is good for
all...


Seriously, and the above was serious, though in a light manner... I
have been doing battle with some personal demons lately. Some days I
prevail, other days the "demons" get the upper hand, but the daily
struggle goes. Daily picking up one's cross, one might say. It's OK,
life is not easy, not meant to be, IMO. Always room for improvement.


Above comment applies here also...


But, I have become aware of something that could underlie some of these
problems and am having a go at that. First off, I gotta kick the crap
out of one particular nasty and then we'll see. Layer by layer, a bit
like taking an onion apart.

Interesting that you would pick up on this. I appreciate the prayers
and please continue, though you get scant info on the nature of how you
should pray, yet enough it is. Gives me strength.


Well, reading "between the lines" of your few posts lately, I kinda
noticed something wasn't "quite" right... No one ever needs all the
details to be able to pray for someone, regardless of personal beliefs
in the view of religion. In the meantime, if you ever need me for
anything...(& that sentiment goes for anyone on the group) everyone on
here knows my email addy, & it is the correct one!


You take care and give your family hugs

Same to you! Hope the grands are doing well. I'm sure you're enjoying
them.

Thanks
Charlie


Anytime...
