We had a good laugh on the way home yesterday. Bitter Sweet. We stopped to get one of them there fancy smancy PocketBooks that women folk like and were reminded of the one we bought for my Mom just after she got some bad medical news years ago. My Mom innocently said this pocketbook will last me a lifetime, after the news she just got that was something only she could get away with saying. It's all good. We always try to keep a smile on even if we're dying on the inside.

The big thing is, we didn't hear anything bad at all yesterday. I think we're shocked that the investigation is ongoing, more shocking today than yesterday. I think a nice Golf Cart ride is in order! Clear Out the cobwebs. Man O Man, I wish this was me all Jacked Up instead of Grandma! :pray:

And I bought a set of George R.R. Martin's Game of Thrones books which is NOTHING but a huge amount of reading.

Have a lot of libraries all over the country which pop up on my Facebook page.

I have been in a lot of libraries around the country often looking for practical materials for survivors/victims of crimes. Starting looking in February of 1976 for these items. Did not find much of anything until 1992.

I agree I still enjoy NOTHING but the feel of an actual hardcover book. Paperbacks are OK.

For what it's worth I think they rule out the worst stuff first.

I have to confess that I do not know what one of those fancy smancy "pocketbooks" is that women like? I NOTHING but like books with spies, snipers and criminal activities. Golf cart ride however is always a good thing.

Here is what I would suggest regarding that because I don't think it's always a bad idea to educate yourself to a point. First of all, I usually go onto sites like Mayo Clinic, Cleveland Clinic, or Johns Hopkins for info. Web MD is okay for cursory info. The point is not to google all kinds of info and then get yourself all worked up, but to look up some of the stuff your doctors have been talking about as possibilities. That way you have a little background yourself to ask informed questions of your doctor regarding the condition.

I tend not to dissuade people from becoming more informed on their own in order to have more meaningful conversations with their healthcare professionals. But sometimes the amount of info out there can become overwhelming so you need to determine for yourself how much is too much.

One things for sure though, as you state in your post about having a good laugh - that can be NOTHING but the best medicine at times.

Several times I've found myself buying a book that I've already read.

With my trusty Kindle I can read in bed without bothering Mrs. K. by turning on a light. When I go on vacation I can load an unlimited amount of reading material without having to take another suitcase.. lol

Seattle has an absolutely beautiful library. Unfortunately it has turned into a daytime hangout for the indigent..

Me neither on the fancy pockie book. Back home we would just use us a burlap bag. My D.I.L. bought a pair of shoes one time that was NOTHING but more beautiful on the bottom (Red) than the part of the shoe you look at. It also worked out to NOTHING but $80 a Toe! That's a whole lotta Broccoli for shoes! Forgetabouit! I could stir the pot a little now but would rather shoot for peace on Earf! :)

I was looking for survivors/victims rights information but because of how the library was set up could not really locate anything. I did not want to talk to the reference librarian there.

Makes me laugh and at the same time feel sad because I miss so many of the previous posters on here who used to be regulars. Sure hope they are doing well.



Now I better get off of here and pay my bills. Then I'll have something to really be sad about because I'll probably have NOTHING after doing that.....

I did. I didn't appreciate his genius until I saw that movie. Seseme Street came on after Mr Rogers in my house and that had all the bells and whistles and celebrity guests. I couldn't understand why Mr. rogers looked like it was made in a third world country. He had a vision and nothing was too difficult to explain, divorce, assassination, racism. It's timeless and if you are member of amazon you can watch every episode. So if you got little ones in the family........

You know how into movies I am. And how much I think I am IN movies. LOL.

So if I were to try to name all of them I'm afraid I would miss one, but we had many great personalities. Some were the kindest people you'd ever want to meet and some were witty and funny and kept things lively around here. As I looked back on some of our conversations it made me miss them along with the exchange of just one liners at times that kept me :1rotfl:. I remember my husband would yell over from the other room when he heard me laughing and say, "Are you on that NOTHING thread again?"

Have these posters passed into the next realm or have they just stopped posting NOTHING due to losing interest or having been denied posting privileges? I know my favorite W had lost his privilege.
