THEY CAN'T KEEP HIM FOREVER...

HEY my 2006 sisters..........can't believe today is Saturday...I had to work today and I am bushed...

I almost hit a dog on the way to work today. someone dropped off a dog right on the parkway...I saw the car stop and the driver throw something out, but didn't realize what it was until I was just about on it, I slammed on my brakes and went sideways...I got out of the car talking to him the whole time and got him off the road...If I had not been going ot work I would have taken him home with me . I was hot under the collar...okay so I love animals. I have 6 dogs and two inside cats...only one inside dog...

came home from work and dogs had escaped and I had to put a piece of plywood up on that piece of fence...I am so ready for Herb to come on and pass this all on to him
love Jeanne

HI all!!!!!! Good News, Bad News

Ok, turn on Lifetime, Good movie...As Good As it Gets....

Nice day today, after it rained over here for one week straight it was nice and sunny today!

Nice night too, just walked the doggy....

I went shopping and got some new sneaks...maybe I can get off the butt and jog now!

bad news...
to be quite honest, I have not been good lately mentally... having trouble falling asleep, crying at night, having pain in my back, feeling sad, I miss him, and not just the physical missing him, I just miss US....how things used to be before the mess and depression and the fears....he does not call anymore, and he wrote once in the past 2 weeks, which I understand, and we agreed to no phone calls, but I feel mentally overwhelmed and like I cannot be strong right now, I just cant ---not today. forgive me....I am just not Jennifer....I need my husband!!! Sometimes I feel like he is all I got, he is all that is right in my life and now that time is close I feel insecure...
I need some attention....what about when I need him to make me strong? I just feel all down....

but maybe a few movies and some oreos and milk will cheer me up

Ambsy · #**1255** 10-15-2005, 08:57 PM

I was wondering where you get the cool Is It 2006 siggy things I would like one my hubby comes home 2/9/06

jblovesdb · #**1256** 10-15-2005, 09:04 PM

Hey ladies...there you are!!

I was wondering where my ladies went!! Well, I am STILL home (like I was actually planning on going out?!? LOL!!)...and I am SOOO beyond bored! *Ok, if you don't wanna read about my little issues, skip to next paragraph!!! I will NOT take any offense to it, I just had to get this out* I am TIRED of this ish!! I swear...sometimes I feel like what 20 year old in their right mind would be home doing this?!?! (No offense Marj!!! I'm just saying!) There was a party tonight...I haven't been to a party in God knows how long! But my "lovely" man doesn't like me to go to parties...so here I sit

I'm really not in a bad mood at all...I am just BORED...and when I get like this I sometimes resent the fact that Dave doesn't want me to go out and party or chill. I mean, I completely understand where he is coming from...but DA*N! Good thing this is gonna be over in 5 months...I need to go out!!! You ladies also wanna know something that keeps stressin' me out?! Well, I'm telling you anyway

I know that I am just thinking CRAZY...but I keep thinking that when Dave gets home, things won't be the same! Like he won't wanna go out or go to parties or have any fun!! I'm not saying I wanna hit up a party every day or get wasted all the time...but we're both real young and I still have some fun to be having before I retire from it, ya know?! Well, I just keep thinking that he's gonna become boring! LOL...and I know it's not gonna happen b/c Dave being boring...NEVER!!! I'm probably gonna have to keep him under control lol!! Ok...I'm sorry for boring you laides...but I needed to get that out. It's been on my mind ALOT lately, that things are gonna be DIFFERENT and it's gonna be like it is now, BORING!!! I have talked to Dave numerous times about this...so I am pretty sure he's tired of hearing about it

Ok...thanks for listening ladies...sorry to bore you and bi*** about my stupid little fears and all!!!! SORRY again ladies

--mzk...hey sweetie!! I am sorry that you couldn't be out with your man on "Sweetest Day"...but that doesn't mean that the holiday can't be special for you 2!! You DO have a sweetheart...so take joy in that! I know it would be real nice to have him home...but he's coming!! He'll be here for Sweetest Day next year, right?! I hope your doing good girl!!! Keep that head held high!
--Jeanne...hey Auntie! AWW...I feel so bad for that little doggie!!

How could someone be soo cruel to just leave a dog on the side of the freeway!!!!

What if he got hit?? That's SOO mean!!!! I'm sorry that you almost hit the poor dog...luckily you didn't and you didn't get into an accident trying to stop!!! That really sucks that you had to work today!!! I hope you get the rest you need tonight! Hopefully with you working all these days, the weeks will fly by and you'll be seeing Herb before you know it!!!!! Keep your head up. LOVE YA!!
--Jen...Hey! Yes, the weather was SOO much better today

I was beyond tired of the rain!! We barely had any rain all summer, so I know we didn't some...but we didn't need that much IN A ROW!!!!!!!!

I'm glad you got some sneakers...I'm still trying to find some motivation to start jogging!! Girl, I've been saying this since the spring...and still nothing!!!! I am SO lazy! I am sorry that you are feeling down Jen...have you ever thought about going on meds?? I am NOT trying to say that I think you need them...but maybe they could help you out, ya know? To me, and I am NOT a doctor, it sounds like you are depressed girl...and you should do something to help yourself out. I hate seeing you down like this...I always feel soo bad for you when you aren't happy!!! I hope MrG writes you a letter real soon! B/C I know with no phone calls...it makes those letters even more important!!!! Have you thought about maybe going to visit him? Maybe that could help you out. You gotta stay strong sweetie...you can do this!!! Don't give up now...you don't have long to go AT ALL!!!! Don't feel insecure Jen...MrG loves you and wants to be with you just as much as you love him!!!!!!!!! I wish there was something I could say that would take away your pain...but there isn't

I am sending you a BIG

and if you ever need to vent/talk, you can always PM me!!! Keep your head up girl!! LOVE YA!
Aight ladies...I'm thinking about going upstairs to watch a movie. I just borrowed "The Notebook" from a girl at work...I know, a little late, huh?

I haven't seen it yet...but I've heard good things about it. I KNOW I WILL end up crying my eyes out...I'm such a dork when it comes to movies!!! I cry at all sad movies

So I might as well do that now!! Keep your heads held high ladies!!!! LOVE YA ALL!!!!! Hugs

-Jackie

jblovesdb · #**1257** 10-15-2005, 09:06 PM

thanks Jackie

I wish I had a party to go to tonight cause my butt would be there...you have to have fun Jackie!

as for me being depressed...clinically, no....(him, maybe he is, yes) I have my ups and downs just like anyone else I think...I just miss my baby so much!!!! and I get tired of being the one to hold everything up...but it's ok, I know it will pass, I know he has held us up too, and I know he loves me, but I just miss us.... "us" you know what I mean? I should be seeing him the end of the month, but I am going with his mom.

tanks jackie girl

jblovesdb · #**1260** 10-15-2005, 09:26 PM

Jen...I really hope you didn't take any offense to the depressed statement...I did NOT intend to make it seem like I thought you defiently were or anything like that!!! If you did...I am real sorry...I was just stating what I THOUGHT could be wrong!! I definetly feel you on having the ups and downs...I go threw them too!!! Lately, no, I've actually been doing ok (BITE MY TONGUE)...but like 2 months or so ago, I couldn't shake it for like a month! I KNOW what you mean...I miss US too!!! I miss US sooo much!! But as you said...this too shall pass!!! You are almost there girlie...you can and WILL make it!!! Just keep taking it one day at a time....or sometimes even one hour at a time! I'm glad your going to see him at the end of the month...even if you aren't going alone, it should be a great visit anyway

Keep your head up sweetie!!! I definetly can relate to what your saying...and I meant NO offense by my statement

SMILE

Hugs

-Jackie

Manzanita · #**1261** 10-15-2005, 09:32 PM

no! I am not at all offended

You are such a sweetie, I know what you were trying to say

Retired-25 · #**1262** 10-15-2005, 09:34 PM

Hey girlies!

Just wanted to stop in and say hi and I hope you've all had a good weekend so far. OK...I'm warning yall too. If you don't care to hear about my drama/issues, just skip on over the rest of my post - I swear I won't be offended lol!

I had a good visit with Danny last night, but it's killin him that his 2 boys went home and he's still there. He walked into the visiting room in a FOUL mood, but I changed that pretty quickly.

So he called me late last night before bed and said he ended up having a good night. Today one of his boys called me, and he's missing Danny just as much.

Poor guys...they're like separated brothers. He said he hated leaving Danny there and he's got pics for him and he wants him to call him tomorrow. D said I'm the connection between them for now, but I think he's a lil jealous that his boy called me from outside when he can't be here too. UGH...all this has just made me sad for him. When he's sad, I'm sad. When he's hurt or happy or excited or stressed out, I feel the same way. I wrote him a long letter and explained to him that I understand how he's feeling alone now and like he lost two of best friends, but his time IS COMING SOON and WE GOT THIS and I'm NEVER leaving his side. He got the letter and told me that he felt better after reading it. I just feel so bad for him, but he's gonna be alright.

Dang, I hope the next 5 months fly by.

I've gotten so behind in here that I can't possibly catch up tonight because I'm sooo exhausted.

I just gotta say to Jackie and Jen...I feel ya both tonight. I'm sad and lonely and missing him and just feeling bad for him cause I know he wants to be home sooo bad. I'm being strong for him cause I know he's going through a rough time, and I'm not letting him know that I don't wanna be strong for a minute. I'm scared and anxious, but at the same time I'm happy that it's almost over. Does that make any sense at all?!? I have friends that are out tonight, actually having a night life, but I'm here on the computer and getting ready to watch a movie. I don't resent the lifestyle I chose, but things would be so much less boring if he were here with me. Weekends are always the worst for me though, so I should be used to it by now. Oh well...30 more minutes and this day is OVER, plus we're halfway through October!

Aight, I'm gonna stop my whining/vent/whatever it is and catch up with yall tomorrow. I'm off to drown myself in drama on tv and try to forget about ours! I hope you all have a wonderful night. Love ya girls...

makes sense to me! thanks....you made me see something!

I am watching movies too

goodnight!

14 minutes until 76 days until 2006....

yipee!!!!!

Ambsy · #**1265** 10-15-2005, 09:54 PM

This seems like a great place to talk to people and make some friends!! I am wanting to do something special for my husband but with him being gone and all I cant so I was wondering if anyone has some romantic ideas to send my husband in the mail or wait does anyone understand what I am saying???

jblovesdb · #**1266** 10-15-2005, 09:57 PM

Steph...were you stealing my lines

lol! I'm glad that you had a good visit with Danny last night...and you changed his FOUL mood real quick

hehe!! That's always a good thing girl

AWW...that's soo sweet yet soo sad that Danny and his boys are really missing each other!! It's a good thing that they have created such a good friendship in such a horrible place, ya know? And just b/c Danny is still in there...that does not mean they can't remain friends. 5 months will fly by (atleast I'm REALLY hoping they do!)...so Danny will be out in no time! I know it has to be draining for you to be the middle man in their friendship...but I know you will do it b/c it makes Danny happy

I DEFINETLY feel you...when Dave is sad, I'm sad...when he's happy, I'm happy. I'll be fine all day long...and he'll call me all sad and ish....and then I'm sad

I hate when he does that

But it also works the other way around, if I'm sad and he calls all happy, I USUALLY am happy too...but not always! I know you feel bad for Danny...but he'll be OK sweetie...don't sweat it!!
I am sorry that you are feeling down girl!! I hate to see when my ladies aren't happy!! But I know what you are going threw...it's not that I am SAD...I just want my man home NOW!! Not in 5 months...not next week...not tomorrow....NOW!! This waiting BS is SO old...it's time for him to come home...I don't wanna play this game anymore:shake: lol! Girl...if you are feeling down...you don't always have to be strong...it's ok to let your guard down!! But I can relate to not wanting to burden our guys with our emotions...but I am sure Danny would be more than understanding. TRUST ME...I know exactly how you feel about Danny coming home!! I have sooo many mixed emotions...it's crazy

I want him home SOO bad...but yet, I'm scared, anxious, nervous...but beyond all I will be SOO happy!! I think it's completly normal for us to feel those emotions...and I won't doubt if it gets worse as time gets closer

I don't really resent the life I chose...b/c I know I could walk away at any time...but I just sometimes get annoyed by the fact that I am sitting at home...esp on the weekends!!!!! But as you said...if Dave was here, I would have no problem sitting at home watching tv and all

Girl...KEEP YOUR HEAD UP...things will be ok!!! WE ALL ARE GONNA MAKE IT!!!!!!! Today is over in 5 minutes...and Oct is gonna be over before we know it!! Then come all those dreaded holidays...but we'll get threw them too! Love ya girl!!! If you wanna talk...PM me anytime!!!
--Jen...I'm glad you didn't take any offense...I felt soo bad

Keep your head held high...Love ya!
--brians...Hey! I see you down there

Have a good night sweetie!!
Ladies...ok, this time I'm really gonna go upstairs to watch that movie lol!! Have a good night and an even better tomorrow!!! OUR DAYS ARE COMING!!

Hugs

-Jackie

jblovesdb · #**1267** 10-15-2005, 09:59 PM

Ambsy...I definetly understand what your saying

I'm not good with creative things...but if you check out the Prison Mail forum...I know they have some ideas in there!!! Girl...you can definetly join in with our convos any time you would like!!! We are all here for each other!! Keep your head up! Hugs

-Jackie

Ambsy · #**1268** 10-15-2005, 10:03 PM

Thanks for the advice, Jackie!! You guys are the greatest!! I love PTO!!

Retired-25 · #**1269** 10-15-2005, 10:11 PM

See I was gonna go watch a movie 30 minutes ago and I'm still here lol!

Thanks Jackie & Jen! I hate that we go through these roller coaster rides with the emotions, but at least we get through it together. I can't even imagine what this thread will look like in 3 months lol!! I am dreading the holidays AGAIN, but it's the LAST time we'll have to get through them alone

and we'll all be here for each other...as usual.

Ambsy - Welcome to the group girl! Glad to have you here! Yep, there are a lot of ideas in the mail forum.

OK, I'm really off this time! It's officially the 16th...one more down!

Nite girls!

~Steph

jblovesdb · #**1270** 10-15-2005, 10:14 PM

LOL...I feel you Steph...I'm still here!!! I really wanna watch this movie too...so will you ladies stop posting for tonight?!?! LOL...just kidding...but I do need to get off this computer!! I gotta visit my Dork tomorrow and I'll be up all night long at this rate

LOVE YA LADIES!!! Hugs

-Jackie

okiesis · #**1271** 10-16-2005, 08:38 AM

Hello Ladies, I know the feeling I get my ups and downs too, and sometimes it feels like he's been in there forever. I only go see up a few times a month cause money's tight and don't have dependable car

but when I'm able its great. He doesn't like me going out and having fun either but sometimes I just have to or go stir crazy sitting here.He understands and as long as he knows I love him and am staying true to him, he's okay with it.

Went to visit yesterday and had a great time, he is so ready to come home and I'm ready for him, to be here. Supposed to be getting ready for counseling now that all the paperwork is done, his caseworker is supposed to call me Monday and if she doesn't then I will call her as soon as I get in from work.He is sending all his time sheets with me next time I come see him and that's good at least I'll be able to know what's going on. We've had some problems on the home front and it is so hard with him being on the inside at least I know he's with me in spirit and in my heart. God, I love that man

. Well ladies everyone keep their heads up and remember "THEY CAN'T KEEP HIM FOREVER!" Love to all, Alena

Retired-25 · #**1272** 10-16-2005, 08:39 AM

Hey Jen...I just thought of you. I was looking for good movies on tv today, and on TNT they are playing GOOD ones all day and tonight. You and I like the same kinds of movies, so I wanted to let you know lol! You probably have plans to do something productive today though...but I'm just planning on keeping my couch warm!

Yall have a great Sunday. Be back around later!

Manzanita · #**1273** 10-16-2005, 11:04 AM

I made myself get up at 9 today.....LOL

and then I did some food shopping, cleaning again

and hanging out at home...no movies yet, radio is on...I will try TNT later, Thanks Steph

for those who believe, a friend sent this to me today:
Divine Will or Our Will?
When we’re disconnected from God (or Spirit, or Higher Power), we’re on our own. We have to handle everything ourselves. We often worry a lot, because we’re not sure of what will come, and unsure of how to handle what already faces us.

When we surrender and ask God for guidance, and connect with Him all day long, then everything is easy. We look for answers from God, and we find them. We ask for help, and we get it.

How do you know when you’re doing God’s will? Simple, when you connect, and desire with the deepest part of your heart, and you surrender, then you are.

You know you’re with God and doing His will, because everything just turns out well. Things synchronistically line up and work.

Miracles happen, and the world is right and so are you when you turn your will and life over to the care of God. Not necessarily the way you desired, or expected – but the way God created.

I have a hard time surrendering....so I am going to try and do that...lift my spirits up and leave it to God...

Have a good day all!

jblovesdb · #**1274** 10-16-2005, 05:52 PM

Hey ladies! Well, I had a good visit with my Dork today

It actually started real rocky...b/c I was just being a big ol' bi***, IDK why...but I was!! I felt HORRIBLE for doing that...but I was stressing over the lovely issue of MONEY!!! As in, I need it...and I don't have it!!! I won't bore you ladies with all the details...but I just wanted to say I don't know what I would do without that man!!!! I was being the biggest bi*** to him...and I wouldn't tell him what was the matter...well, he doesn't stop until I tell him so eventually I did, and WOW...he is just the sweetest, most caring man I have ever met!!!

He helped me to realize certain things I haven't been thinkin' about lately...and he's sooo concerned about me! AWW

Plus I feel really bad b/c I feel like I don't have enough clothes for him...and he is SO greatful for everything he already has!!!

Let me tell you ladies...he knows how to say the right things to make me feel soo much better! So the visit ended on a good note...and things are going smoothly!! LOL....plus MY COWBOYS BEAT HIS GIANTS

I know he's prolly all pi**ed off...but I'm loving it LOL

And he was soo proud of himself...he is now Tier Rep...don't ask me?! LOL...but I know he felt special about that

Well, it's back to the grind tomorrow

But only 1 more week till I see him again

--Alena...I am sorry that you can't go visit your man every weekend...but you got to see him this weekend...so that's GREAT!!!

I am sorry you are having your ups and downs too...we are all here for you if you wanna talk or let out your frustrations!!! I hope his social worker calls you tomorrow and you guys can get started on the counseling

I know you must be excited that the process is starting...that's GREAT!!! I hope things are going better on the home front!!! Keep your head up sweetie!!!
--Steph...I hope you had a good day keeping your couch warm today

LOL!!! Keep your head held high. Love ya!
--Jen...hey sweetie! I hope you had a good day today!! Hopefully surrendering will help you out when times get hard...and when times are going good!!! Keep your head up! Love ya!
Oh laides...I know I'm prolly a little behind...but I watch "The Notebook" last night. OMG...I BALLED MY EYES OUT

I haven't cried that hard in SO long!! I swear I was crying for the last 30 mins of the movie!!!! What a wonderful movie it was though

It shows just what true love should really be!!! And after it was over I was crying more b/c I missed my Dork...and I could see US in that story...different circumstances of course, but the love they shared was soo true, and that's what I feel Dave and I have

AWW...I loved it!! I'm making Dave watch it when he gets home lol!
I hope you all had a good weekend and you have a WONDERFUL night!!! Tomorrow is Mon....but the start of another week closer to home!! KEEP YOUR HEADS UP ladies!!!!!! LOVE YAS!

Hugs

-Jackie

Retired-25 · #**1275** 10-16-2005, 06:20 PM

Hey girls. What a waste of a day this has been for me!! I haven't done ONE thing that was even remotely productive. Danny told me to get out of the house and I was like noooo, I just wanna do nothing lol.

Jackie - I'm sooo glad you had such a great visit with your dork today!

I KNOW how it is to go in there in a b!tchy mood cause I do it wayyy too often, but he ALWAYS makes everything seem so much better, just like Dave did for you. Aww I'm glad you left on a good note! WOOHOO for your team! My Bengals beat TN too!

And about The Notebook...Girl look, I saw that movie 5 times at the cinema, then bought two copies the day it was released on video lol!! I remember the night that I first saw it was on my birthday and I came home and wrote Danny a longggg letter, telling him that there's a new movie out about US lol! (We started dating at 16 & 18, reunited a few times as adults w/ similar circumstances)

He already knows it's the first chick flick he's being forced to sit down and watch with me. I've seen it like 100 times by now and I STILL cry every single time I watch it! I'm glad you had a pretty good day!

Jen - I didn't even watch one movie today like I had planned! I'm such a reality show addict and MTV played a bunch of episodes of Laguna Beach, so I was parked in front of that lol! Sometimes I swear that I'm still 15.

I hope you had a good day and your spirits are up.

Alena - I'm glad you had such a good visit with your man! I hope things get better for you at home. I'm going thru some stuff too and it would be sooo much easier if he was just here with me, so I'm right there with you on that!! Keep your head up though...they'll all be home before we know it!

Alright, I'm off to put some kids in bed and see if there's anything on tv til my boy calls. Have a great Sunday night girls and I'll catch up with yall soon! Love ya's....

~Steph
