LIFES A BEACH!

Life is for sure an adventure, we never know where it will lead us.

Morning  Beach Chickies....

 I am glad the work week is over and I can come and play on the beach for a little bit.  I got the most amazing surprise in the mail yesterday from Jasmine.. I have a big smile on my face and am sitting warm and happy under it right now.  I have to say it brought tears to my eyes because it is something that will always make me think of the wonderful ladies I know here at the beach.

Coonie - how are you feeling?  Still good-I hope.

SoCal - your pictures are amazing.

just doing some catching up here... Sharon where the heck are you GF?

C'mon girls I brought some extra buckets...

I'll be waiting for you...

I think I have chemo eyes today .... or maybe it is just I am overwhelmed by the love of the women on this board

Good Morning Check

And all my other sisters.... I'm up early. Woke up around 5:30 , couldn't go back to sleep. The stress from the lay off is overwhelming.

So I just had to come to the beach to relax.....

Hope you all have a great week end.

Yes Sharon, I was laid off and then my husband after 19 years at the same job.

Also my son was laid off.... He has a wife and 2 babies.

There are no jobs to be found because of all the plants that have shut down. It's bad here , very bad.

But then again it's bad everywhere.

OMG Mary-Lou, I am SO sorry. 

Good morning Beachies.  Checkum, I'm so glad you like the afgan. I sent it on behalf of the Beach group but I didn't get a chance to tell anyone except Spar so they are probably confused.  Enjoy, Beach sister.  Mary Lou, I remember you saying you were getting laid off.  I have to believe that with this door closed that something better is right around the corner for you.  Just trust that God will provide for you during this time.  Sharon, I missed the chat.  I think you passed your 'falling asleep' thingy to me.  Thank goodness I woke up in time for Psych.

Spar, my true southern sister, come out and play with us this beautiful Saturday.

Mary Lou,

I am sooo sorry for the stressful situation you are in.  It is getting really bad everywhere - we just had layoffs too and more to come.  They also told us that they are considering things like salary cuts - forced vacation, etc. to try to save jobs.  I really worry for our country and this economy - I don't think we are at the bottom yet. 

I don't know what I can do to help --- but, prayers are very powerful stuff!

I think staying close to the lord will be a good place to be in the days ahead.

Hope, did you make the afghan?  How sweet of you to sent it to our dear Checkum. 

Where I live they have an group that does quilts for gals with cancer.  It's called Victoria's Quilts.  One was delivered to me when I was undergoing tx. and it's beautiful.  Also a friend made one for me called a butterfly quilt.  It's beautiful too.  And interesting because the butterfly is the sign for lymphedema (I think) and I have that.

Untroubled seas for all........

I bought an island for us.

Hope, you are one of the best!!!

A list is fine with me.......I can't keep track of anything. 

Sending you a PM Hope.

Sorry to interrupt--mostly a reader, not a poster (obviously ; ).  Just wanted to be helpful and add Dreamwriter to the list you're compiling, Jasmine/Always Hope.  Sounds like Dream is also going through a tough time.  Check out the bottom of the previous page--294. Thanks and God Bless.
