Tuesday Evening: I have had a couple of rough days emotionally but have managed to "pull it off". We went to Chuckie Cheese's yesterday and it was fun aside from crossing one of the busiest intersections in Springfield. The other para, Mr. C., and I decided to try a video game driving a go-cart. Neither of us had ever done that before. He was really terrible! Me?!?!?! I was WORSE. I kept driving in reverse, running off the road, etc. I thought Mr. C. was going to wet himself he was laughing so hard. The kids loved playing the games, too. The pizza there is terrible! One of Scott's friends & pallbearer came over tonight to say hello. I hadn't seen him for several months. He is a funny guy and we laughed a bit. I took a couple of pictures which I will post later. It was good to see him. I have to get new tires for my van. The steel is showing through on one of them...not good! Always something to spend money on. The money noose is getting tighter and tighter these days. I guess the universe will give me what I need, somehow. We had storms, again, today. Thursday they are predicting some really rough weather. Again. I am so tired of it! I want to get outside and plant flowers, etc. Just play in the dirt a while... I have to plant pototoes even though it is getting a little late for that. They have gotten so expensive and I use a lot of them. I have never canned them but I guess it can't be that hard. I have made my own jams, pickles, & grape juice, so surely I can manage potatoes. I will plant tomatoes, too. I love fresh tomatoes! Think spring and peaceful wishes to everyone.

So proud of you for pullint yourself out of the low point...I guess that is what we will be doing going up and down. I hope the weather clears for you soon, especially if you love to garden...have a great day...love and hugs...Karen
Your night out sounded like tons of fun. That is great! I know all about the money noose. Another club I think that has a big membership. My older daughter and I are working towards putting my sons\' 2005 convertible Mustang on the road this spring. We used Mikes\' insurance money to pay it off and bring it home for him but no one ever had the money to register or insure it so it sits in my Moms backyard up in Maine. Its been a hard winter and though covered over with a canvas won\'t even turn over now because the battery is dead. I don\'t even want to think about what condition the tires are in from just sitting all winter.
Good luck with your planting. That is so great that you have a place to grow your food! Have a great and productive day.
Good Job getting yourself out of your low feelings. I\'m glad that you get visits from Scott\'s friends. The field trip sounds like it went well and you had some fun. This is always good to relieve some stress. Take Care, love and hugs.
Some one had a good time :) I know everytime you look You have to spend money on something I love my littleJeep but the manitance Whew!!!
I love fresh tomotoes especially in my salad.
Love Caroline
Good job. Too late for potatoes? We still have snow and the ground is still frozen, not too late here. Tomatoes are wonderful, fresh from the plant. I\'ll plant mine about the end of May. Keep going this too will pass. L&H Cathy
Canning... I love jam. But i don\'t can. I love fried green tomatoes!!!! I used to do a small garden but haven\'t in years now. Something keep eating it up and i got tired of working it for hardly nothing! lol..... I too just had to put tires on my SUV 4 of them. Feel your pain there! I went to Costco. They were cheaper and have good tires and a great warranty. Hope you have a great day. love,sheri
That\'s great your getting out and trying to have a little fun. What I know about preserving food amounts to putting something in the freezer. So I think you are very talented. The only garden I have now is Tony\'s little angel garden. Trying to grow some flowers.
Now about the money boy do I understand. I am unemployed and I am familiar with money being tight. Take care and good luck with the garden.
