Love reading the good news! Sharing eases the struggles and increases the joys.
I am cautiously optimistic about my first born son. You all know the worries I have suffered over recent years. He seems to be moving in a positive direction. He and his father both seem to be making an effort at not fighting, a challenge for both of them. Dad has said nothing about his past shoulder length hair and impressive beard. And son has been going to work with me and acting and dressing appropriately for the environments. He gained 30 pounds! He is almost 200 lbs now, which on a 6'6" frame is very slender, but a whole lot better than 170.
I need to move him more into a training position. He seems to really enjoy getting complements from the doctors and nurses when he is on site. Also, he should be starting on line school in January. Feeling hopeful.
That's good news, for sure, Laura. All fingers crossed for that to continue.
And yes, good news is a necessary antidote/bracket/balance/relief from bad news. We need it.
I, for one, don't wish to see any more message notifications in the right-hand thread unless somebody's being born, being promoted, being published, or other good thing. I'm kinda gunshy of the right-hand threads right now.
That all sounds like good news to me, Laura. And congratulations ND on all your well-earned success!
Love your card, Typo!
And yours, Suzi. The snowflake is gorgeous - go you!
Oh Suzi, I love it! Thank you!
Suzi, thank you for the card and star! The star is hanging on the wall, making my kitchen look all Christmasy.
Suzi, did you send me the green snowflake? It appeared mysteriously, it must have fallen out of the envelope. It's lovely!
It was likely me unless someone else made snowflakes. I had a blast making them and it is fun seeing them reach their new homes. Thanks for letting me share with y'all.
Suzi thank you so much! It was waiting for me when I got back from surgery. I didn't have time to put ornaments on my tree before I went in, so it's the only ornament on my tree, and it looks beautiful.
Yes, thank you Suzi! I look forward to hanging it on my tree tonight.
I got a box from Santa! I am guessing it is my Secret Santa present, but I am tormenting myself by trying not to open it until I get home.
