    lol tell me about it I am reading clauses and right when I finish reading one I have to go back and read it again cuz i have not clue what did I just read. Lol I wonder how long it takes to have our brain back to normal. I am scared cuz my mom got dementia at 78 :( she had not short memory and it was so sad. I hope it does happen to me or my sisters but we think it's already happening ha ha ha

    BB, I am with you. You know I am not very confident around horses but I always been attracted to them I don't know how to describe it. There is something about them that intrigues me, I even too some clases a few years back but I was not very good at it and all I wanted to do was be around them lol every time I pass by a far I stop and take pictures of the horses I even bought a horse colar once I love them and always dreams of having one.  I love the movie with Robert Redford and the horse lol and also any show that involves horses. I have a nice picture framed and all. Lol when I saw that one it stood my heart too.

    Have you ever go horse riding? I had a horse back home and he was killed by a sneak bite :( I ll pm u a picture of him 8 years ago.

    So bb, back home the horse I had was a wild horse never had a saddle on him, yep I had to ride him with no saddle lol but I guess it was easy for me cuz he was very gentle his name was Rey, I suffered when I was told he had to be put down cuz he was attacked by a sneak. :( 

    Yes horses here are a dream, too much $ but I love to just look at them from far or watch movies.

    Great inspiring posts.

    .I am winding down my stay-cation..The weather has been so nice......The DMB concert was nothing short of fabulous, especially the opening acoustic set. Tim Reynolds was there and played throughout the entire show. People were extremely friendly. Spoke with the people who parked next to me and the couple invited me to sit with them, however, they were in the lawn and I had a very good seat. But how sweet! The people around my seat were nice too as were the people in the box seats behind me.

    Anyhow.....I went to a Reds game the next day and walked the riverfront and city. Stayed an extra night and headed to my university the following and did a walking tour. Drove home, but stopped at my male BFF as he is off the interstate.\

    I have tons of pics to share. Will start with a beautiful pic of the Ohio countryside and DMB rocking the acoustics with Tim R.

    wow, I am speechless lol it's like Bb, said the other day it's like we can go in and imagine all you experience Piper, thanks for sharing ;) you go girl. ;)

    I am like you I have a lot of respect for the horses some how when I ride a horse he always goes on his own way I just sit high and let it take me,  my brother usually tells me off and goes one far away and there I go slowly and let the horse do what ever usually Rey could just go eating leaves from trees lol 

    Yesterday something funny happen, I was walking by the lake as usual and a man stopped he was riding his bicycle then I kept going ignoring him, he then follow and interrupted my walk I took my ear plug ( music 🎶 loud) then he said, "are you single ?" I didn't know what the hell to say I simply put my ear plug back on he then asked again " where are u from?" I then looked his way n said " I am sorry by I need to keep going" and took off lol I am telling you I must have been so rude, but it did bother me that he was asking me that ,I mean I was walking minding my own businesses and this man literally stopped me ,then I thought it was due to some kind of ? Like where is the xxx street ? Lol n he just wanted to hit on me lol I then got to my car ,n thought what did just happened ? Lol 

    Any way, tmw I am supposed to meet a guy I went to school with , we never dated we were great friends ,but I have to admit I did like him. Never let him know cuz he had a girlfriend plus we were buddies. I thought they could get married they were perfect together then 3 years ago I saw in his face book he was involved with another girl. Anyway we always keep in touch but never really see each other. Now he sent me a msg to get together . Just to catch up, I went to his Facebook n saw that he is currently single. I am not sure what happened. He is now the owner of a paddleboard school, have any of you try that? Here is his website , go check it out cuz i will go take a class, he said he ll teach me lol I am happy to see him ,hope it goes ok there is nothing to spent since we never dated or anything and I am sure he never realized I liked him . So who knows ha ha ha the thing is that I feel Wierd every time I met him in the past I felt this Wierd . Lol 

    Check it out www.paddleboardaddict.com

    weird is good E. Butterflies or just that good feeling that someone wants to genuinely spend time with you.

    Have fun and enjoy the moment. 

    I lived out this week for those small moments.

     Some were fleeting and perhaps some will last or I will crawl back in my cave for a while

    well I am not sure,  I think is more like a great feeling cuz this man is a genuine male friend who I can be open just about everything.  I am not sure how he will take what has happen to me cuz i never told him. He has no idea. He asked me what I have been up to these past years and I only said, there is a lot to catch up. I now fear maybe I should not say anything. I don't know I have to tell him cuz he is my good friend but part of me wish I didn't say anything. :(

    BB - I hope everything is fixed for good this time, and you won't have to worry about any more lightning strikes.

    E - I am about to sound overly cautious, but...  If your friend happened to do a search for that link, wouldn't your post here pop up? 

    Sheesh, I know that sounds ridiculous, but those are the things I'm constantly worried about when I'm posting messages.  LOL.

    I'm just paranoid, Enerva.  LOL.  That probably would never happen.  Still, I'm constantly worrying about that stuff myself.  For example, I even worry that my ex is monitoring my computer somehow.  We live in such strange times...
