Moose...
It's never too late until it's too late....
My exah is 39 and he's only 5 months into 'working' his recovery.
Many :ghug3 to you. It doesn't get easier but we get wiser as to how and how much we let it affect us.
Have a good time in Florida. Soak up some sun for me...I'm looking a bit pale these days.

And Moose, you might want to practice up on your synchronized swimming while you're in Florida. You never know when you might be called upon to give a demo!

Love ya
Cats

Dag nabbit, Moose.

I'm sorry to hear about all of this.
It doesn't matter how much recovery we have under our belt, it STILL hurts like crazy to see them stumble AGAIN.

Sending hugs, support and prayers your way...

Moose,

This has absolutely nothing to do with your AS or you, but I just had to say this.

Your dog looks like he is one kind of fun fella. The outfit is to die for.

Love you....and your dog cause both make me smile.

I don't know which way you're driving to Florida, but if you come through ASHEVILLE, give me a call...I can't drive all the way to Charlotte this time, my car needs some repairs. I'll pm the phone number.

Thanks Trish, I Pm'd you back.

As for the continuing saga...
Son left this a.m. for California.
He just called, he's in Arizona right now on a layover.

Last evening, we had quite a heated chat, me and him, cause, (since he was robbed) he had no money to eat to get to California, and wanted, once again to borrow.
To put it simply, I caved, and gave him $25.00...

But, he also wanted to have his checks sent here like last time, and I said NO, won't be here, but you're smart, you'll figure it out.

The best part is his last check came today, and it's for $66.00, and when he called I told him I was keepin it.

WOW, a whole $66.00, I be dancing now.

So, I kinda, sorta, slipped....


Hugs,

Moose, You just have a great time in Florida. Your son will either learn to fly or not and you know that all your worrying and fretting will not change a thing. We are getting older and our years are getting shorter and we need to live our lives with as much joy and happiness that we can. I constantly remind myself that this is the only life I get and I need to make it the best. I still worry and feel badly that my daughter is wasting the good years of her life in a dinghy apartment with no job and no car and no money with a man that could be her father and is abusive but that is what she wants right now and who am I to judge. (Her mother, of course, doesn't that give us the right) Anyways sending hugs for a good trip and lots of sunny days. Hugs, Marle

MOOSE, GET A HOLD OF YOURSELF!

The way I see it is you didn't slip. You made 41 bucks!

(And you and I both know that is not near enough to reimburse you for all the other you've shelled out prior to recovery on your part.)

Hm, let's see. How much are those stones you wanted to purchase in Savannah? I bet the $41 will help cover them and then some. And you deserve them!

Oh Moose, that wasn't a slip according to the Codie Manual...Page 29, paragraph 6, which reads...well, here, read it for yourself:

Any mama who gives a child or moose of whatever age $25 to eat is just doing what mama's do and that is not a slip...especially when said child causes migraines and is heading out of Dodge.

He's still in my prayers and right now I'm just praying that he knows what a great mama he has.

Big Hugs

Morning,
I must say, when other parents have missing kids, I feel quite guilty to say I feel relieved, when mine is miles away.
But mine calls each evening, and I know he's safe.


Hangin'
I bought those stones on a side street, heaven knows where, but I do want to stop there this year, if we go to Savannah on the ride back. I've looked for the place online, but can't seem to find it...darn.


Ann,
You tickled my heart this morning, thank you....
I really need the index you have for that Codie manual...ha ha


Hugs to all,

Geezzzz, I was thinkin' just like hangin'!
Must be the missin' *g's* or somethin'....
But, you *did* make a few bucks there, hehehe....
See, I would have given the check to Trevor too; now *that's* a slip! LOL!

And yes, I LOVE that smilie too. But, I don't know the code for it, and I'm too lazy to look it up!

Stop kickin' yourself, Moose. You're doin' great!!!
Start lovin' yourself again. You deserve it.
And if you need some help, we're all here to give you all the lovin' you need till you can do it yourself again! :ghug3

L'Chaim!
(To Life!)
