HAPPY NEW WEEK!
I hope everyone has a good week.
I am the Spider Queen! I suddenly have a bunch of spiders in my house, and some of them are species I've never seen before. One type have bright orange-red bodies and 4-inch legs! And they have an odd, powerful, sweet odor! I have no idea why this is a spider summer. Maybe the relentless rain, which is predicted to begin again at 10 pm.
Maybe I'll send this torrential rain to AQ.
Sending love and hugs to all, plus strength to all of you facing adversity.
ANNETTE - glad you had a good start with the easy journey - hope the rest of your time there flows as easily!
DIANE – Thank you for starting us off and a big Thank You for sending the rain. We did have a light “sprinkle” overnight. Forecast is for showers the rest of the week. We can only hope the season breaks soon.
I have raked the crab apple leaves this morn. I like the look of the fallen golden leaves on the lawn but Lawn Man is expected this week and I don’t want him taking them away, I want them to mulch my bulb patch. We did not see Dau & Trio this weekend. The girls had a sleepover with their father. S-i-l has walked out; Dau did not see it coming.
AQ: What's this? SiL has walked out?? Of the marriage? I do hope I'm wrong.
Very busy here....
ANNETTE - Yes, he's gone.
DIANE - I forgot to warn you to beware of spiders with red whatevers. cf Aussie's redback spider - highly venomous.
@ AQ....Oh my , how very sad..Healing thoughts for your daughter and you, as if you dont already have enough problems. BIG HUGS
AQ - so very sorry to hear your sad news. I too was left on my own with my 3 kids - the youngest not yet 3, after 13 years of marriage. My husband admitted it was all his fault but it is still a tremendous shock for all. Luckily for me I managed to bring them all up with not a lot of help and they all turned out nice caring peoplw and said later they were glad he went as he wasn't much involved with them and their lives. I wish your Daughter strength and best wishes and of course for the trio as well. Not forgetting you and your husband who both currently have enough going on so remember to look after yourself as well.
Oh AQ, I'm so very sorry to hear your sad news. It's never easy when a relationship breaks down, but with children involved it's even worse. Sending hugs and prayers and healing thoughts to all of you.
AQ: A damn shame. And a real shock by the sounds of it. How is your daughter coping? And as several have said, you have enouogh on your plate too. None of our business really, so don't feel you have to respond. Hugs and more hugs for you and the family.
AQ So sorry to hear the news, what a blow for your daughter and the children and all the rest of the family of course. Wishing you all the best.
AQ that's awful - you have so much to deal with. Sending hugs x
