Life With Jules, and other stuff

Well, I had a rather interesting Mother’s Day. Even though my child is not among the physically living, she is always with me in spirit. It’s true, I carry her around everywhere. I guess that’s my way of saying that when I miscarried in 1995, her tissues were absorbed back into my bloodstream. I also went to a baby shower yesterday and had a great time! Other than that, not much else happening in my life. So, I will get on with this week’s Q & A for Meet Me on Monday! Questions: 1.  For Mother's Day I _________ 2.  What is your favorite dish that your Mom makes? 3.  Who are you a "Mom" too? 4.  What did you have for Mother's Day dinner? 5.  What is your fondest memory of your Mom? And my answers: Questions: 1.  For Mother's Day I went to church (grandma joined us) and went to a baby shower later in the afternoon. Pretty non-eventful! 2.  What is your favorite dish that your Mom makes? My mom is the...

I am almost 40 years old and have been dealing with a severe back ache for a week now. Yes, I did that stupid thing in 1993 and will live with it the rest of my life.

In the meantime, I spoke with my dad tonight to let him know my intention of picking up my kitten from my grandma’s tomorrow (Monday). He didn’t object but suggested I make sure Ebenezer is the one I want. I guess he’s a bit wild toward my dad, but he was so sweet to me a few days ago. I will be OK. This too shall pass. Now, my answer...
