    Have I mentioned that I love Rich yet? I'm pretty sure I have
     
    He walked in from work yesterday to find me and my daughter in a VERY heated discussion about her homework. Basically she walked into where I was with her math book unopened and claimed she needed help. Okay fine, I can understand that, but what I can't accept is that I know she hasn't even tried to do it on her own yet I'm totally on board if you NEED help, but I want you to try first! Anyway he spent a lot of time explaining and helping her with her homework because he could see I was ticked off and disappointed
     
    Then we headed to Good Scouts. I actually even entertained the idea of leaving my daughter home since she still wasn't finished with her homework by then, but in the end we decided that she didn't have much left and could finish it when we got home. Now, the rules at Good Scouts are, that you have to have 2 female adults there at least, at all times. My co-leader has been flaking out on me lately I guess I understand that she is going through a rough time right now, but she doesn't even warn me ahead of time enough that I can cover my bases and she even sends her poor husband to be my second female adult
     
    Meanwhile, when I left for Good Scouts, Rich said he might make some dinner while I was gone... OMG! the guy made meatloaf! Also he made some three-cheesy mashed potatoes... he looked on the internet for some recipe ideas and decided on meatloaf and potatoes. Now as if it wasn't already soooooooooo great that he made dinner this is WHY it's so great and I love him, well a teeny, tiny bitty bit of why. He HATES!!!! onions... GASP, I know. But I love them. Normally when I cook I either omit them or make them so small and so well cooked he can't even tell they're in there, but he actually chopped them, made the meatloaf, and then ate it!!! Lots of ketchup of course, but still, just for me, and he was so proud of himself, it was too cute!
     
    Then, after I got the kids to bed... We headed to bed ourselves eventually, around 10:15 pm. He was getting undressed, whistle and woohoo!, and normally I would do the same, since we sleep in nothing but instead I just stood there and watched until he noticed I wasn't getting undressed and he asked me what I was doing... I said, "Waiting for you to come take my clothes off and make love to me all night." He looked alarmed, since 'all night' seemed like a long time to him. So after confirming that by asking me, "All night?" I said, "Well at least until morning..." So anyway we and can I just say wow and even more wow, and when it's all over with, I look over at the clock and it's midnight... I say to him after his (swoon and moan) performance, that he made it till morning before we both promptly pass out for the night.
     
    Then, he let me sleep in while he got the kids ready for school and took them! So I got off work early cause it's been slow after the holidays and I went to have lunch with him, just the two of us since both the kids were in school. We ended up having this big talk and he's told me to go to school... See, you know that saying, 'what do you want to be when you grow up?' Well, the answer for me has always been, I have no idea. I know that there are LOTS of things I would love to do, but they all take way more schooling than I actually have, plus to be perfectly honest, for me anyway, the saying goes, 'what do you want to be when your kids grow up?' since right now, it's most important to me to be a great mom to them, even if that means I end up putting my own wants aside for the short time they are kids. So he told me to go to school and get the job I really want
     
    Trouble is... what the hell is that? I love kids, helping people, listening, people watching, being in control and organized, creative, pushing people to confront things and pursue happiness instead of run and hide in fear of the unknown. So I've come up with a few options here that sound nice to me... A high school counselor, a kindergarten teacher, a marriage counselor, or I guess I could try being a writer Anyway, I know some of you knw me better than others, but I'm wondering what you guys think, or if you have any suggestions to throw into the pot.
     
    Anyway, besides that, I am the resident tour guide at work. We give tours of the store to classes of kids at the local elementary schools. Now, I knd of have a routine, a speech sort of I give when I do it, with the same jokes and stuff. Like when we walk inside the store, inevitably one or more of the kids says 'Hey, I've been here before!' and I joke back saying, "Me too!" and they all look at me like 'duh! you work here' and at some point I show them the HUGE refridgerators we keep the milk, etc. in and I ask them, "Have any of you ever sat inside your refridgerator?" and again, inevitably one kid always raises his hand and I say, "I knew you were trouble." I love doing it, it's so much fun! I gave a tour yesterday and I'm giving another one tomorrow.
     
    I saw Matt online the other day I didn't talk to him, but at least I know he's still alive and kicking! Hopefully writing some more amazing and awesome stuff for us to read
     
    I want to say a public thank you here and now to Joey for helping me since I am computer challenged, and that's putting it nicely... for being 'the man' and doing all of my html stuff!
     
    And now, I don't know if he reads these or not, but... to Comicality. He has taken a HUGE amount of time to read, review, and comment on my story... He has said some immensely constuctive and helpful things, and I think I told him that I couldn't think of anyone better to learn from, he is truly an awesome writer and a great man too! Between him and my sweetie this will hopefully turn out to be a great story!
     
    I guess I should clarify for all the confused :wacko: minds out there, since I already heard it once from my favorite Canadian... Rich is my super sweet, sexy hubby... Davey a.k.a. sweetie is my Scottish little brother and amazing friend, and Tony is my little brother, in case anyone was confused...
     
    Hugs and then some,

    Okay, so Rich and I chat while he is at work throughout the day...
     
    Rich: Hey sexy...
     
    Viv: blush! hi honey
     
    Rich: Coming to see me for lunch today?
     
    Viv: hmmmmmmm, i could... or you could come home...
     
    Rich: I could... or you could come see me:-)
     
    Viv: are you asking me out? i'm a married woman!
     
    Rich: if thats what it takes Dont look at it as a date, just two adults getting together to do whatever it is two consenting adults do
     
    Viv: hmmmm! I bet you say that to all the consenting adults!
     
    Rich: and the unconsenting ones too
     
    Viv: gasp! i must have done something right last night since you're so... in a mood, wink wink!
     
    Rich: your white satin panties have the affect on me:-D
     
    Viv: LOL, I know! why do you think i like wearing them...
     
    Rich: to tease me and make me do things i might not normally do
     
    Viv: NO! to motivate you are you saying i have super panties?
     
    Rich: You need a pair with a big "S" on them
     
    Viv: for selfish?
     
    Rich: for super
     
    Viv: super selfish... in fact soooooooo selfish that i would wish bad things on people just so they will ask me for help or advice so i can feel good? >:-/
     
    Rich: I never said that...out loud...did I?!
     
    Viv: sigh, sadly YES! you did, and i even understood most of it even with that HUGE foot in there too
     
    Rich: Once again, the power of the panties has clouded my mind.
     
    Viv: well, maybe i better lock them away somewhere if they do that much damage... they could create a national disaster!
     
    Rich: Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! So what do you say to lunch with a cute guy who cant resist your "super panties"
     
    Viv: How do you spell... moan! swoon? you had me at sexy i guess i better go get ready then and you should sit there a minute so you can get up and go finish working
     
    Rich: hehe, good thing i have my long jacket on
     
    Viv: LONG is right
     
    Rich: :-D
     
    Viv: okay, i'm gonna go take a shower babe... and find some other super panties! purple today?
     
    Rich: Purple is nice
     
    Viv: okay... i'll talk to you soon then... i'm off to get all wet and naked
     
    Rich: no fair!
     
    Viv: it's a tough job, but someone has to wear the super panties!
     
    Rich: and someone has to pull them off and throw them on the floor too:-)
     
    Viv: you're hired!

    Okay, well I posted chapter 9 last night. I hope you're all enjoying it That was my penis envy chapter... but I'm sorta really proud of it, and I have received some... excited reviews so I guess it was what I wanted it to be.
     
    As for the next chapter it will probably be another week still, and I'm apologizing in advance, NOW, for the way that it ends... but, Davey made me do it! The few people I have shared ahead with have said that we can't stop right there... and it's a good thing that you live far away sweetie :2hands: but don't worry, I'm pretty sure they know not to mess with my little bro
     
    I'm off today and I'm staying in my jammies all day and doing nothing! Well, at least I'm gonna try
     
    So, I signed up for the 5K Susan Komen Race for the Cure Run/Walk at the end of February through work. They want at least 10 people from each store to support it and it's a great cause and I like to walk so... yay!
     
    Rich is being... sigh. We have a lot of complicated crap that goes on in our household and not a lot of options for improving it that are very easy. I guess anything worthwhile isn't easy, but that doesn't mean it doesn't suck.
     
    Besides that, the other day, my son who is 4 was eating lunch. A turkey sandwich, and our dog, Ocean, cause she is a husky and has blue eyes... was taking quite an interest in his sandwich. So I told him he better hurry up and eat his sandwich before Ocean does and he said, "Bulls**t!" So I try not to react too much because then he will just keep saying it to get a reaction out of me, but I do say, "No, mommy said Ocean." "Bulls**t!" he says again... "That's not what I said," I tell him. "Bulls**t!" I'm trying soooooooo hard not to laugh now, cause it really is funny... "I don't want you to say that anymore okay," I tell him. Rich changes the subject and he forgets his new word... for now.
     
    An old lady came through my line at work and told me that they only name great ladies Vivian The halo is mine again, Ben!! I try anyway, but I'm not promising anything... and I'm not denying that I have my moments... but I really do try.
     
    The camp I'm taking my girls to in the middle of February had snow this past weekend... Brrrrr! You guys KNOW I'm ALWAYS cold! Crap!! Oh well, I guess I can freeze my ass off for one weekend for the good of the cause...
     
    Eric is officially lost! I'm sure he's just busy with starting a new school term, etc... but I miss him anyway... Hugs! Matt is MIA too, but I know he has stuff going on so... I hope he knows I'm thinking about him...
     
    Yup, Viv

    Wrapped in a pink and orange, argyle, fleece blanket to keep warm, I'm always cold. I walk down the hallway acrosss the old creaky, wooden floor to my living room looking for some tissues. I find some and make my way to the kitchen where I find Rich, getting laundry from the dryer to be folded and put away, hung in closets. It's midnight now. I've been home from work for two and a half hours and while Rich and Tony are playing Nintendo and laughing with each other, an amazing sound that makes me smile, I've been reliving, reminiscing... reading.
     
    I find Rich at the dryer, and he looks up as I approach him, before looking again to be sure he sees what he thinks he did. "Are you alright?" he asks, seeing the tears rolling down my cheeks as they have been for the last thirty minutes, though he has only just seen them for the first time. I nod to him that I'm okay before throwing away my used tissues. "Sad story?" he asks, looking for the reason for my tears. "Yeah," I say before I turn and walk away.
     
    I walk past Tony on the way back to my room. He looks... almost horrified. That makes me cry more. His pillar of strength is human too. He's helpless, lost for words as he sees me walk by crying. I don't know that he ever has. I cry alot, but mostly, he doesn't see it and I like it that way. Someone needs to be strong for him.
     
    Rich eventually follows my same path down the hall to our bedroom where he finds me curled up on our huge bed still wrapped in the fleece blanket, maybe for warmth, maybe for comfort. I'm still crying, and I can't really stop myself. "Are you sure you're okay?" he asks. He knows I wear my emotions for everyone to see... usually.
     
    "I am," I assure him. He picks up the book I have just finished reading, cover to cover, in the short time I've been home from work. "Good book then?" he jokes, trying to make me smile... I love him more for this each time he does it. I know he doesn't feel emotions as strongly as I do, or stress, but he helps ease mine by making me smile and laugh.
     
    "Really good book," I confirm, "you should read it."
     
    "I don't know how to read," he replies, his lame attempt to dodge feeling what he sees me experiencing. He leans over and kisses my tears away and heads back to the Nintendo.

    Moving, insightful, accurate... awesome. I will probably read this book a million more times in my life. Somehow, everything I think and feel about life, death, and humanity is present in this book. Maybe I need this book more than others to remind myself of what I already know to be true, maybe others need it to learn what I already have learned.
     
    "Tuesdays with Morrie" is the book I just read, I picked it up on my lunch break and for $7 ended up with something I will cherish and hold dear forever. I'm not sure why it caught my eye, I think I remembered seeing it in Michaels' profile as one of his favorite authors stories, but the reason is inconsequential now.
     
    If you haven't read it, I recommend it, it is... a necesity. Being handed the answers to life's biggest and most difficult questions is priceless.
     
    Besides that... Since about Christmas time I have seen this guy come into my store and shop, always coming through my line to check out. He is about 5'10", shaved head leaving only brown fuzz, and an English accent. He always has this adorable little boy with him, about one and a half years old maybe. Each time, since the very first time, I think of Chris... and I imagine him and David... as parents of a wonderful child and I smile, knowing that I have them in my life too.
     
    Love ya, Vivian
     
    PS. A million thanks Michael!!!

    Okay so I love... LOVE the fact that it is a beautiful, sunny 87 degrees here today in the middle of winter and I haven't worn a sweater all day and I still have on my flip flops for those of you who live in celsius that is... approximately 28.
     
    I decided, after much thought and random surveying that I am gonna try a 'dear viv' blog... People always come to me for advice, to talk over their problems... and I love it not that they're having trouble... just that I can help... usually. So the deal is this... If you want to remain anonymous then that's great, if not, that's even better!! Write me a 'dear viv' letter and email it to me at viv.stories@hotmail.com and then I will post it in my blog with (hopefully) some great advice!
     
    ****DISCLAIMER**** I actually have no real training or education so, all it will be is advice from me...
     
    So, after I thought :wacko: I had finished the next chapter I sent it to my sweetie for review, twice since he is my hand holder/keep the story on track guy aside from EVERYTHING else he is to me too, I was told... that I was in fact NOT done so I have made the changes/additions, and thanks to Davey... now it is ACTUALLY done! That of course means that the next one will be posted soon! Everybody... please thank Davey for making this story what it is!
     
    Okay... After discussing the hotness of the gardner guy and the plumber guy on Desperate Housewives with a friend... I brought up another soooooooooo pretty guy! http://movies.yahoo.com/movie/contributor/...98/photo/483429 Check him out!! Woo hoo!!
     
    Love ya, Vivian
     
    PS. WE'RE the reason I'm off to teach Ben to make naughty things out of cake

    Well, I started out today thinking that I was doing just fine, I even talked to my Sweetie for a while and that was... SUPERB!! Then I went to work and there is a new guy there, Steve, since they closed 5 stores near mine, we have new employees... Anyway, he said, that I looked sad today... and I said nah, I'm fine... But then as I started to think about it more, I realized... I AM SAD
     
    I am... it's true, and I know I am because I actually am drinking a root beer float right now. How does that prove anything?? Well, it just does... because I don't really like root beer. Maybe I think that when I'm sad or depressed that misery loves company and so if I'm already feeling miserable I might as well go for it all the way
     
    On to the reason for the sadness... and I thought I was doing so well, I was proud of myself too! I thought that this morning I had made it through yesterday and I would be fine, but I guess not. It's nothing major... no need for total upheaval or anything, and no one can make it better so... It was my mom's birthday yesterday... It's been almost 8 years now since she died, and I am ususally fine, but the holidays come, and then her birthday, and then the day she died in February, then my dad died in March and his birthday is in April, so off and on for the next 4 :wacko: months I will be indulging in root beer floats it seems.
     
    I'm fine, really, it's just... sad, there is no other way to say it than that. I have always been the strong one, the one to smile so everyone else will feel happy, and then I go and drink my root beer floats... sigh. I'm sure by tomorrow I'll be soooooo sick of root beer and happy again... in fact I'm smiling again so...
     
    OMG!! Eric is alive, so YAY! I was beginning to worry. Okay, that's a lie... I was already worrying, unecesarilly I know, I was really beginning to worry A LOT!! Bard, I got your card, and I even waited for you to open it... but now your lost too and I am... worrying about you
     
    Hugs, and I promise to be smilin' tomorrow,

    Okay, well the power just came back on It suddenly went out about 3 hours ago, due to the crappy rain and wind we were having here (I'm assuming) while I was chatting with Slave, so forgive me for just leaving you due to reasons beyond my control...
     
    Anyway, Rich and I used the time to catch up on sleep and snuggle
     
    So, if people's attitudes yesterday were a sign of how things are going to go in the coming year then... YAY!!! Everyone was sooooooooo nice even considering it was cold and rainy out, and we were still super busy even though it was a holiday, but there were no major complaints or issues at all! That, and I got called sweetie by more old men than I care to count, but... it's true. Well, most of the time anyway... I really DO try.
     
    I have three days off this week... IN A ROW... WITHOUT asking shocking really! But definitely no complaints on my part! Maybe I'll actually get the next chapter finished for you all...
     
    Hugs and Smiles to everyone!

    Okay, so I can't think of a title yet so I'm just gonna start typing and hope that one comes to me soon
     
    First, Happy New Year everyone!
     
    This year has been filled with all kinds of things for all of us; good, bad, and indifferent, but I know that for me at least, stumbling across Comicality's stories and then GA has been one of the better things. The direct results that have occured because of that have been awesome!
     
    I seem to have a whole new family... Davey and Chris, Eric, Michael, Kevin, Drew and Luke... and alot of great friends too... Joey, Jared, Jon, Ben and Seb, Deb, Matt, Dr. Mike, Vic, Slave, Tim, and everyone I am forgetting
     
    I am writing my first story and LOVING doing that! So, SO, many thanks need to go to Rich, and Davey and Chris , and Joey for all their help!
     
    As far as resolutions go... I usually don't make them cause I have trouble sticking to them and then I feel like a failure so instead I just tell myself that I want to make the most of the upcoming year and to help as many people as I can, and to make good choices for my life... sounds simple enough but I will definitely try my hardest!
     
    I wish all of you a happy, healthy, productive New Year full of possibilities and wonderful memories and a safe and fun celebration!
     
    Hugs, Vivian
     
    PS. I learned today that I am an octopus... never ugly or scary though and that apparently I have a great smile and nice hair!

    Okay, just an advance warning, but this may be a long entry... for the full effect.
     
    So, my sister in law Lisa was telling me that the department store she works in made it mandatory that everyone worked the day after Christmas. So she is telling me about her day and this is her story... Actually it is two stories in one because as I was telling this story to Rich and Tony they had me laughing hysterically with their little comments I will try and include in the appropriate places...
     
    Lisa is standing behind the counter at the cash register helping customers and there is, of course a long line, being the second busiest shopping day of the year. While she is helping one customer, this lady walks up to the counter all pissed off about something and demands to see a manager so Lisa of course calls one. While they are waiting FOREVER for a manager to show up, another man, apparently a 6 foot tall Asian man, in line gets pissed off and is telling Lisa that she needs to tell the angry lady that she has to wait her turn. Lisa tells the now angry man that while she can't really do that, he may feel free to do so. Well the angry lady is getting impatient and finally says to Lisa, "Maybe you can help me, I just want to exchange this lid because it's dented..." So Lisa says, "Yeah sure, no problem..." So the angry lady starts to walk away in search of her exchange item and the angry man KICKS her! Tony said, "Alright, which one of y'all kicked me" His Chris Rock impression from Rush Hour. So angry lady says, "You kicked me! I am calling the police!" So Rich wants to know what kind of kick it was... like a roundhouse to the forehead or what?? Like it matters... By this time another man has gotten involved and is trying to make peace... thank goodness, and he is saying things like, "Come on, it's Christmas, forgive and forget... apologize, etc." The angry, now kicked lady seems to be considering it before she promptly pulls out her cell phone to call the police. By this time, the apparently VERY busy manager has now shown up and wants to know WTF is going on! So Lisa fills her in and is instructed to call store security. When they show up they tell 'angry kicker of women man' that he needs to wait over there while they talk to 'angry been kicked woman' first. So he does the only thing imaginable and... takes off running... LOSER! So the store security takes off and of course catches him... Tony said, "Describe the guy ma'am... well a 6 foot tall Asian guy, and the store security says... well that narrows it down... " Now I don't know what happened after that because they were in another part of the store. Then Rich said, "Dishonor on you, dishonor on your retail store" from the movie Mulan, which if you don't have kids you probably haven't seen. Anyway, I know that this is a very BAD attempt at reliving the silliness from yesterday, but... oh well!
     
    Aside from that, Davey SO, SO saved my ass again this time. We are getting close to having the next chapter completed... FINALLY. What? I plead temporary Christmas, lack of my sweetie, writer's block That's my story and I'm sticking to it! It's a VERY good thing I get the hold-my-hand, save-my-ass-AGAIN, cheerleader, pep talk for the extremely low, low price of being a big sis and friend to him, cause otherwise I swear I'd be broke and writing total crap!
     
    Big brother Jeff has left for home to spend New Year's with the new fiance, YAY!
     
    And, hopefully Davey and Chris will FINALLY have their presents tomorrow! Apparently Christmas in the UK is like several days longer than it is here in the US :wacko:
     
    Love Ya,
    Vivian

    Okay so I read this article in a magazine a couple months ago and I found it to be oddly accurate after analyzing Rich and then all my girlfriends analyzing their husbands/boyfriends... Let me know what you think.
     
    I apologize in advance for how the descriptions are worded, but it's a woman's magazine, I have no other defense than that
     

     
    In case you are interested, Rich is a skinny mouth
     
    Aside from that I hope everyone had a great holiday! Mine was surprisingly stress free and amazingly sex full
     
    I can't wait to see if my sweetie and my darlin' like their presents
     
    Love ya,
    Vivian

    Hi Everyone,
     
    I wanted to wish you all a very Happy Holidays! This is the legendary card I made this year
     

     

     
    Aside from that, I received an email today and it made me smile... I have been having a really fun, educational, exciting, emotional time writing my first story, and I wanted to say thanks to all my guys who help and motivate me, and to my partner in crime... my sweetie, thanks for holding my hand while I second guess myself ALL the time...
     
    So here is a part of the email...
     
     
    So for all of you that have helped or encouraged me... I wanted to share this with you because I honestly believe that this reader wouldn't have these feelings about my story if it weren't for all of your help.
     
    Happy Holidays! Love,
    Vivian

    Okay... so either I am crazy, or I have mad skills!
     
    I crammed SO much stuff into today I can't believe it! Of course that only leaves another ridiculous amount to cram into tomorrow, but I digress...
     
    It started at 4:30 am when I woke up for work. I worked 6 - 10 am so that I would be available to pick up Rich's friend Joe from the airport at 11 am. Well the good news is I didn't have to go to the airport at all... this is REALLY good because I get soooooooooo lost it would be funny if it wasn't so unbelievably sad. I didn't have to go though because big brother Jeff picked him up for me on the way home from visiting a friend... Yay Jeff! Instead I went to the post office and to get a gift for my sweetie and my darlin!
     
    So Joe shows up here in his camoflage outfit, hehe, and he looks great! Happy, confident, thinner, it's really amazing... now if I could just get him to stop saying things like 'I don't want to die in Iraq' then I might not kill him myself...
     
    I forgot to mention that the guy with the kids who have the mom that sucks, the recent birthday girl and her big sister, were waiting outside of my store for me when I got off work because I was gonna spend some time with them today while their dad was off giving a deposition... again yay!
     
    We all went to have lunch with Rich so that he could see Joe and we could all eat without me having to make lunch for seven people... while we were at this little burger place, my daughter and his two girls decided that they all had to go potty since they were of course seated in between four adults in the booth requiring ALL of us to stand up and move so they could get out to go. Well not a minute later my daughter comes back crying and holding her arm saying she slipped and fell in the hallway. I am freaking out and REALLY hoping she didn't break her arm. She is fine but with an UGLY bruise on her elbow... But the point of this whole story is... I am the safety manager in my store so I tend to react a little differently than most people when I see something hazardous, but when my own kid is the one getting hurt... anyway I tell Rich to go check the floor where she fell and he says that there isn't anything wet there but that it is REALLY slippery so I tell him to go tell the people working there so they can take care of it before someone else gets hurt. So the girl he talks to... ugh! First of all she didn't even ask if my daughter was okay and then her way of 'fixing' the problem or hazard was to put out a wet floor sign Anyway then I ask Rich to go and ask them for a small bag of ice for her rapidly swelling and turning purple elbow and they tell him they only have paper bags... whatever! I mean if this happened in my store... I would do whatever I had to to help this person/KID feel better, but grrrrrrrr!
     
    Then I came home, wrapped my little brothers' gifts so I can go BACK to the post office again tomorrow :wacko: and talked to Davey and he reaffirmed that he indeed is a spectacular man! Holidays are already unreal when you work in retail... but he is like a million times more stretched to the limit now... so I was REALLY glad to hear that he was doing well and feeling better!
     
    Then I went to Good Scouts, and we had our Christmas party and the girls all exchanged their secret Santa gifts that they had to make, not buy, for each other... and drunk mom only stayed for a little while and wasn't even too drunk tonight either... more yay!
     
    So then I got home and sat down to write again... I guess I will admit that I was allowing myself to get sidetracked because I know that this chapter will be hard for me to write, but I am determined because while I may experience penis envy while writing, and while I have never actually had to come out to someone, this part of the story will probably be the most well written part because it is actually something I have experienced and felt, therefore allowing me to write it well. Anyway, thanks for being so patient... I am excited again and ready to write again!
     
    Also, I just spent an hour reading... I got to read some amazing chapters today! Dom's DD 20, The Zot's Yankee 14, Sea Change... I've lost count now, and Second Wind... also lost count, but had a happily ever after, which I am still smiling about
     
    I just LOVE happily ever afters... and ALL my guys, my little brothers, my big brothers, I could go on here!

    Okay... So my brother, the one who just turned 40, gasp... arrived yesterday for Christmas and then announces that he is FINALLY getting married!! So YAY!!! The wedding will be in April, but since the girl he is marrying is originally from Spain and all her family is there the wedding will be in Spain. Also, they plan to have two other additional receptions here in the USA... One on the east coast where they live and work and one on the west coast where we live and he grew up and went to school... I think I have been recruited to plan one or both of those I'm not sure if we will get to go to Spain to see the actual wedding because that can get expensive really quick...
     
    Besides that, I braved the mall on my lunch break yesterday :wacko: and I have increased my gifts purchased from one to five!! Yay again! Although I am still in some major trouble... but I am off today and have a half day tomorrow at work and I'm off on Wednesday so I hope I can get it all done then.
     
    So Davey has a big day tomorrow and I hope it's all going okay for him... I KNOW he is stressing and I know he hasn't been feeling well SUPER BIG HUGS and SMILES to my sweetie and my darlin'.
     
    So, OMG!!! Rich actually got the Christmas lights hung up yesterday while I was at work. Still yay!
     
    Still haven't gotten any more writing done... but I'm trying to find the time... and I need my partner in crime to hold my hand
     
    Hugs to everyone
    Vivian
     
    PS. More Hugs!!

    Okay, I'm cold AGAIN! WTF?? I do live in sunny California for goodness sake! :wacko:
     
    So let's see... I started out today talking to my sweetie who I had been missing like crazy... I was trying to remember the last time we went more than a day without talking to each other and I finally remembered that it was when he was in the hospital So, I was definitely having my Davey withdrawls... well, it had been 2 whole days!!
     
    Then I cleaned the house since it needed to be cleaned and because the family is starting to arrive tomorrow
     
    I went to work and some old man said something to me that I am still trying to figure out. I handed him his receipt and said, "There you go, have a great day." His reply to me was, "Why do all you Yanks always say 'there you go'?" Well, on my break I called Rich and when I told him what the old guy said he pointed out that I should have told him that I was a Rebel not a Yank... cause my high school mascot of course was the Rebels... many, many years ago when I actually was in high school... But!!! I am not old, Davey, Eric, and Bard said so
     
    Anyway, my back is killing me tonight because of a combination of all of the above... I'm cold, I cleaned, I worked, and other 'girl stuff'
     
    So, I'm definitely in TROUBLE!! I have only bought one gift so far and that was even a total accident cause I happened to see something I wanted to get my daughter while I was out buying a birthday present for someone else... The lights that were supposed to be hung up last weekend, and again today have AGAIN been postponed until tomorrow, and I still have no Christmas tree, also being postponed until tomorrow... AND we still haven't had the Santa talk yet... ugh! SO much to do and so little time...
     
    For me the total control freak, this year is killing me. I know... shutup~ but you don't understand, I'm that crazy person who makes all her cards by hand cause it's more personal that way, and has them mailed out the day after Thanksgiving and all the Christmas shopping and wrapping is already finished long ago... sigh. Deep breaths now!!!
     
    Thanks to Eric and his last blog I have been telling myself the following... 'Tis the season to shut the f**k up and stop being a whiny little b***h!
     
    Got to get it together and I mean NOW!!!
    Vivian
  15. viv
    Okay, so I had planned to write about how I thought everyone else was being all whiny and needy today, and in the end I was the whiny, needy one. I don't know if it was me all along or if they just rubbed off on me
     
    Anyway, Rich took care of that Poor guy... hehehehe. He was... well, behind me and then afterwards, he rolled over and lay next to me and not even 2 minutes later I look over at him because I hear him snoring it's kinda cute actually. His heart is still beating really fast, I can see it as I am looking at his chest, but he is in the sex coma Well, whatever, he deserves a rest after that performance
     
    Beyond that, I mailed out my Christmas cards finally... FINALLY!
     
    So, I was driving to work the other morning, and I looked up at my rear view mirror and I saw something that caused me to smile and laugh! I know this sounds weird, but let me try to explain... I have a jade bracelet that hangs from my rear view mirror. My mom-in-law, Rich's stepmom is from Malaysia and she always brings us stuff back when she visits. She gave me this bracelet, and it's a nice one, but not my style really so I hung it from my mirror. Anyway, Rich always hooks it over the thingy that you can use to switch your mirror from daytime to night time use, something I never do, and it bugs me... so he had driven my car late the night before to Taco Bell and the next day when I got in to go to work there was my bracelet hooked over that thing again... it made me think of him and I smiled... I know he just does it to bug me, but this time I smiled... right before I unhooked it!
     
    It seems that Rich has sanctioned the computer tonight for his own amusement, so perhaps I will try and get some writing done for you all to read...
     
    Not whining anymore
    Vivian
     
    PS. Davey didn't whine when I talked to him!
  16. viv
    Well, 2 trips to the craft store, 6 glue sticks, 48 bows, one hot glue gun, a super designer hubby, one trip to Office Depot and 36 hours later all my Christmas cards are made, written, addressed, stamped, and waiting to be taken to the post office tomorrow! I only had to stay up till 1 am to finish making them and God bless the person who invented self adhesive envelopes!
     
    So work is bullshit right now, no other way to say it really.... whatever! I'm tired of being pissed about it.
     
    So I had just gotten home from work today and changed my clothes and sat down to read DD 18, yay when my phone rings....
     
    It's my sons' preschool saying that he is hurt and I should drive over there NOW!!!! to decide if I want to take him to the hospital or not to stitch up the cut he now has on his face So of course I try really hard not to freak and change my clothes AGAIN, call Rich and head over there. My brave boy was sitting on his chair with his books and was so calm and it was so scary! He has a deep cut about a half an inch long that starts on his forehead and goes into his eyebrow So I decided against going to the hospital and instead went with butterfly bandages and antibiotic ointment, but now I'm a little worried cause the cut is in a place that sort of comes open when his expressions change and it's sorta... oozing occasionally
     
    Besides that, my daughter has cleaned up her room, washed the dishes, washed my car, and did all the laundry I wonder if she is sucking up to Santa... hmmmm. Actually we are about to have the 'talk about Santa' with her cause she is 10 now. I'm just going to tell her that we are letting her in on the huge secret of Santa now because she is such a big girl and I know we can count on her to keep the secret for my son and include her that way, I hope she goes for it
     
    That's pretty much all for now. I've started the next chapter and I will probably send in the next one tonight... so look for it soon. Enjoy!
     
    My back is sore and Rich is gonna rub it

    Well, tonight was my daughter's Christmas musical at school, and again it was great and of course she was awesome! What? She is my daughter after all Anyway we had to drop her off a half hour before show time with an adult so Rich stayed with her while I ran down the street to the bank to deposit my paycheck and to the grocery store to pick up the cookies my daughter informed me that we are supposed to bring tomorrow :wacko: for her holiday party. I know, I am the super mom and should be baking them, but... anyway. So my bank is actually inside the grocery store so that made my trip easy, one stop and all with the four year old... so as I am walking into the store I see this kid sitting outside shivering. He is maybe 16 or 17 and he has his dog with him. He is holding a sign that says ugly, broke, and sober. Some man on his way out gave the kid some change as I was walking in, and I smiled at him and said hi. I grabbed the cookies I needed for the party, made my deposit, picked up a birthday card for my brother who is turning 40!! and paid. On the way out I gave the kid $10 and he said thank you. I was sad, officially almost in tears that there was nothing I could do to help him, and when I got back to the school and met up with Rich, his first words were, "What's wrong?" Sigh... this sucks. When I came out and gave him the money he was even more cold and had taken off his jacket to wrap around his dog... I really wish I could do more.
     
    Besides that, on a much happier note... it's Davey's birthday! Yay! Happy Birthday sweetie, hope you have a great year, full of happiness and good health!
     
    Work sucks... I am about the only employee left in the whole store now Well, it's a good thing I can do almost every job in the store, except I refuse... REFUSE to learn to drive that forklift thing... I can barely drive my car! :nuke:
     
    So Rich has a great solution to my cold feet problem... since I am protesting winter and continuing to wear my flip flops he suggested I get some of those cute socks with slot for each toe so maybe my feet will stay warmer... a little.
     
    Trying to help, I promise...
    Vivian
  18. viv
    So I had this whole plan see... I had a whole Saturday off and I didn't even ask for it! Shocking I know...
     
    So the plan was... Get Rich to hang up the Christmas lights outside, get our tree, go to... ugh... Costco buy a birthday present for the birthday party we were going to that evening... at Chuck E. Cheese :wacko: ugh... and get the stuff I needed to make my Christmas cards.
     
    Instead this is what happened....
     
    I got up early and actually... FINALLY finished the chapter I have been working on for what seems like forever and mailed it out to my guys I woke Rich up and we and let me just take this opportunity to say that damn! that guy has some skills and then we showered... together We went to eat and I had this really yummy burrito thing that was like deep fried like a chimichanga and then topped with chili, lettuce, tomato, cheese, and sour cream sooooooooo good! Then we went to the craft store and I bought all the supplies I need to make my cards... FINALLY... I should take this time to tell you that I am literally freaking out because normally I have the cards done and mailed the day after Thanksgiving Anyway, we went around to Costco and managed to spend $250 on a big bunch of nothing, before we made a quick stop at Target. Now a quick stop means Rich waited in the car with the kids while I ran in and picked up the present for the birthday party. I did manage to buy my first Christmas present though, but I won't get into that or I may have a breakdown... So we come home and put away the few things we bought and I wrapped the present for the party. We finally head to Chuck E. Cheese. I hate this place and I ususally hide in the back. For those of you who don't know what it is let me explain briefly... It's like a kid's arcade, play place, that serves pizza and the kids win tickets when they play the games that they can then painfully redeem for miniscule prizes.
     
    The good part was that the girl having the birthday I love and they moved away almost a year ago so any chance I get to see them is so, SO great. Her mom is a 'words I won't say here' and she and her sister hardly ever see her so they have sort of attached themselves to me, which to me, is a great honor and I love being able to be something for them that they are missing in their lives. I'm no replacement, but at least I can be there sometimes, anytime they need me. So as the party is coming to an end, Rich is helping the Dad and Grandpa take all the presents to the car and when he comes back in... OMG!! He tells me some little kid, like my daughter's age comes up to them in the dark parking lot and is trying to sell them some Christmas pin or something Seriously, I am beginning to wonder WTF is wrong with some people, but it gets better, or worse as the case may be... apparently his little sister is standing outside of Chuck E. Cheese selling candy canes... NO ADULT OR PARENT at all!
     
    Anyway... sigh... and deep breath too.
     
    Working late today cause I am the only employee left but I'm off tomorrow so yay!
     
    Hugs

    So, two more guys at work got fired for dishonest acts I mean what the hell is going on? I swear, at this rate I will be the only employee left by Christmas Okay, actually that's a very scary thought. So now Hot abercrombie and cute guy 'C' are gone too. My boss seems worried, and he should be, I mean Christmas is just 17 days away... GASP!! 17 days and I literally have not bought one present yet I'm officially worried. I told him I'll wear my super woman cape and save his ass again
     
    I realized only moments ago as I was watching something that Davey sent me that the crazy mom who yelled out her car window at me about the play that was f***kin awesome looks like Stephen Tyler from Aerosmith Add scary to crazy and you're almost there.
     
    So, besides sending me cute boys to watch Davey saved my ass again with this chapter... I've lost count now how many times he has done that, but thank goodness my sweetie knows just what to do all the time. I'm almost done now, I promise...
     
    So, I spent the whole day in my jammies and I was freezing! I told Davey that I am protesting winter, but my feet are REALLY starting to get cold in my flip flops. I wear these things everywhere and all the time except for when I'm at work... Me and the cold do not get along so well, it's a good thing it's usually really warm here.
     
    So I started thinking the other day that there are a few things that I just can't live without. Well not really, but like everyday necesities that are purely material things. Some examples of those things for me are my sunglasses, lip gloss or chapstick, and definitely flip flops. I'm curious what things you guys find necesary that are material things for your daily comfort. I also always, ALWAYS have a sweater or jacket with me cause I am always cold... Rich actually tried to tell me once that it's because I'm so short Some crap about the body produces so much body heat per cubic whatever, blah blah, but can only release it at the same rate through our skin and of course your head. He rationalizes it that way because he is 6'2" to my 5'3" and he is always warm and hardly ever wears a jacket Whatever... I'm used to being called little now... I have been this size since I was 12 and in the eighth grade.
     
    On to the most important news though... It's only one day till my sweetie's birthday! Giggle, I can't wait... I think I am almost more impatient than he is I guess if you think about it by tomorrow when I get off work it will be his birthday where he lives... Yay!
     
    So I put my story on the new eFiction area here and apparently I am now the second most prolific author

    So I was talking to 'the man' the other night while I was up late TRYING to write some, and I told him that I find the sexual or erotic scenes the hardest to write. I'm not exactly sure why, I mean it's not like I'm new to the whole sex thing but I have realized that a HUGE part of my problem is that I don't have a penis I know, before you all say it... that IS a problem hehehehe. So I was asking 'the man' how it feels different having someone else's hand on you... there, instead of your own. He suggested I ask Rich Okay so that is about the funniest suggestion ever! Why?
     
    Rich is... quiet, introverted I guess. I mean he is one of the funniest, quickest, most clever guys around, but it seems like you have to put in a couple years of silence before he might let you in on that part of him. I mean it's just weird to me, but then again, I am really outgoing and talkative, totally opposite of him. So I tell 'the man' that Rich probably wouldn't have an answer for me if I actually did ask him. I ended up telling him that Rich doesn't hardly ever say anything during sex, like I have to work REALLY hard to get him to say something, like the other day... Not that I mind the hard work hehehehe, but I guess I'm wondering if that is normal. I know he is an extreme case... the guy won't even sing in the car if I'm there
     
    It's weird... I mean we have been together since I was 15 and he was 16, so 12 1/2 years now... and you would think that he would have 'loosened up' a little, but I don't know... anyway. I love him whether he sings or not I always will.
     
    Well, now that I have admitted that I have penis envy... :wacko: I suppose I will get back to my sad attempt at writing somehing HOT! I apologize to my group of readers who have been waiting like 2 weeks for this chapter to be finished, but besides the whole penis problem I had a whole week of being non productive since I was worrying about a friend who seems to be doing SO much better now
     
    Hugs to my guys

    So, not much to update really. I spent all morning at a Christmas craft fair with my girls and it was fun and I got a new halo so yay!
     
    So, I stole the following from something one of Rich's friends sent him, but it was so funny I had to share it... enjoy!
     
    Things I Learned From Movies
     
    1. If being chased through town, you can usually take cover in a passing St Patrick's Day parade - at any time of the year.
     
    2. All beds have special L-shaped top sheets that reach up to armpit level on a woman but only waist level on the man lying beside her.

    4. Once applied, lipstick will never rub off - even while scuba diving.

    6. Should you wish to pass yourself off as a German officer, it will not be necessary to speak the language. A German accent will do.
     
    7. The Eiffel Tower can be seen from any window of any building in Paris.
     
    8. A man will show no pain while taking the most ferocious beating but will wince when a woman tries to clean his wounds. :2hands:
     
    9. When paying for a taxi, never look at your wallet as you take out a note - just grab one at random and hand it over. It will always be the exact fare.
     
    10. If you lose a hand, it will cause the stump of your arm to grow by 15cm.
     
    11. Mothers routinely cook eggs, bacon and waffles for their family every morning, even though the husband and children never have time to eat them. :wacko:

    14. Medieval peasants had perfect teeth.
     
    15. All single women have a cat.
     
    16. Any person waking from a nightmare will sit bolt upright and pant.
     
    17. One man shooting at 20 men has a better chance of killing them all than 20 men firing at one.
     
    18. Creepy music coming from a graveyard should always be closely investigated.
     
    19. Most people keep a scrapbook of newspaper cuttings - especially if any of their family or friends has died in a strange boating accident.
     
    20. It does not matter if you are heavily outnumbered in a fight involved martial arts - your enemies will wait patiently to attack you one by one by dancing around in a threatening manner until you have knocked out their predecessor.
     
    21. During a very emotional confrontation, instead of facing the person you are speaking to, it is customary to stand behind them and talk to their back.
     
    22. When you turn out the light to go to bed, everything in your room will still be clearly visible, just slightly bluish.
     
    23. Dogs always know who's bad and will naturally bark at them.
     
    24. When they are alone, all foreigners prefer to speak English to each other.
     
    25. Rather than wasting bullets, megalomaniacs prefer to kill their arch-enemies using complicated machinery involving fuses, pulley systems, deadly gases, lasers and man eating sharks that will allow their captives at least 20 minutes to escape.
     
    26. Having a job of any kind will make all fathers forget their son's eighth birthday.
     
    27. Many musical instruments - especially wind instruments and accordions - can be played without moving the fingers.
     
    28. All bombs are fitted with electronic timing devices with large red readouts so you know exactly when they're going to go off.
     
    29. It is always possible to park directly outside the building you are visiting.
     
    30. A detective can only solve a case once he has been suspended from duty.
     
    31. If you decide to start dancing in the street, everyone you bump into will know all the steps. <----- That's my favorite one !!
     
    That's all folks...
     
    Feel better sweetie I hope that the couchless weekend is awesome!

    So I had a bittersweet day at work I guess you could say. When I walked in to the store today I saw my coworker 'S'. She has worked there longer than I have been alive, no seriously and she has been out of work for months, off and on because she has breast cancer. She is such a sweet lady and she has a husband and two older sons. Anyway, because of the chemo she has lost all her hair and has had sores in her mouth and lost her fingernails, etc. Pretty much she feels all around crappy most of the time. So she is back to work wearing a wig and her face is all round and puffy because of the steroids they have her on, but she looks happy and seems positive and upbeat so that was great! She gave me this article to read about how women who have survived something like this have come to realize their true inner beauty, it was an amazing article really. The sad part is that because she has worked there for so long, the customers all know her and know what is going on. It never ceases to amaze me how some people can say the dumbest shit at the most inappropriate times. Today she heard from a customer, 'Why are you wearing a wig?', from a coworker who's own mom had cancer, ' Your face is all puffy', and from another customer, 'Why don't you just cut them(her breasts) off?' I mean for real people! What the hell?
     
    Besides that, my friend at work 'P' got fired! for doing something so stupid and mediocre but a rule is a rule so... Anyway, I had just heard that he got fired and why when he came walking in the store to pick up his last check. I was the first face he saw when he walked in and he hung his head in shame maybe, or more like sadness, I don't know really. I guess he thinks I'm disappointed in him, and I guess a teeny part of me is, but shit happens and he hopefully has learned that even stupid rules are still rules. So 'P' went around and talked to everybody and said goodbye and saved me for last. I was in the checkstand so it's not like I could just walk off and have some conversation for a while, but it was so... sigh... He walked up behind me, and since I am my small little self, 5'3", and he is like a foot taller than me he towers above me, but I digress. He walked behind me and he leaned over and his forehead was resting on the top of my head and he said, "I'm so sorry." I turned around and hugged him and called him a jerk It's crazy, I mean 'P' is a super sweet kid, a hard worker, the guy even saved a poor old man who passed out in the parking lot and hit his head... he is going to be a firefighter soon. Sigh... he better come visit me like he promised...
     
    So i just talked to Matt, and I started out with hi... feel like reassuring me that you're okay? I'm sooooooo glad that he's okay, or getting there anyway. I somehow got nominated to be on the worry yourself sick commitee with Michael... not only am I a member but I'm the president too!
     
    What else?? OH! On my way to work I passed another Mom I know, not real fond of her but she saw me and pulled up next to me and signaled that i should roll down my window so I do... and she proceeds to scream out her window at me, "The play last night was f**kin awesome! They rocked!" I just drove away... I mean she was right about the play, it was f**kin awesome, but I mean really, did she have to shout it at my car in the middle of a busy street :wacko:
     
    Countdown days... 7 till my sweetie's birthday! Yay!
     
    Hugs, Vivian

    So, I've had a day off today and I am still in my jammies... I REFUSE to get dressed and do anything productive until I have to today, which will be later. My daughter's school play is tonight and she is the third little pig in some creation of every fairy tale known to man all wrapped up into one 45 minute performance... I can't wait! I'm so excited.
     
    Well, I have managed to get a little more writing done, and the new chapter should be posted tomorrow on nifty. I would normally have it on Matt's site first, but since he is recovering from his surgery I have decided to go on and I know he will catch up. I'm certain that he would want it that way anyway
     
    So let's see, what else do I have to say?? I recently realized that I use !!!!! ALOT! Maybe I just get super excited... I don't really know. Today I taught Ben what a 'manwich' is I got invited into my sweetie and darlin's bed on his birthday I realized that Rich has the most pefect hair ever and I am soooooooo jealous! There is something definitely wrong when his hair is prettier than mine... anyway
     
    I have been saving this Thanksgiving story until I had the picture to back it up, but I do now so here it is... We had a good holiday and only the one fire so... I had to work the 7 to 4 shift on Thanksgiving so Rich cooked the turkey while I was at work. I had called him on my lunch break to make sure that he had it all under control and I reminded him to place the turkey on a rack in the roasting pan, breast side up and toward the back of the oven and his reply was, "You said breast and rack." Boys will be boys I guess, and I do have a pretty impressive rack so... Anyway, when I got home the plan was that I would make all the rest of the side dishes for our dinner. No biggie really, it only took me an hour, but at the end I had about 500 things going on at once. I had made some candied sweet potatoes and the last part of that is to put some marshmallows on top and get them brown and toasty in the oven... well, like I said I had 500 things going on so I asked Rich to watch them. :wacko: Well next thing I hear is Rich saying, "Oh shit! They're on fire!!" So I start laughing and Tony comes running in to the kitchen to see what is going on and Rich is trying to take the dish out of the oven when Tony yells, "What do you think you are doing? Don't touch that!" I think he's worried about Rich's safety right?... WRONG!! He pulls out his cell phone to take a picture... and here it is!
     

     
    Besides that I have a joke my HOT friend from work told me... He is an official Abercrombie and Fitch guy if that helps So here it is...
     
    A boy gets a tricycle for Christmas from Santa and he is so excited that he just has to go outside and ride it. A policeman on horseback comes riding up and asks the boy if he got the tricycle from Santa and the boy replies that yes, he in fact did get it from Santa. The policeman proceeds to write a ticket and gives it to the boy saying, "You need to tell Santa to put a reflector on the back." The boy asks the policeman if Santa gave him the horse he is riding, and the policeman thinks he will be a smart ass to the boy and says that yes Santa gave him the horse. The boy says to the policeman, "Well you should tell Santa to put the dick on the bottom next time!"

    Well, that is about the biggest smiley I can find here, and it is sooooooooo not big enough to compare to the one on my face! OMG! I had the most amazing time since I have been home from work... Rich and I had naked Saturday afternoon, after naked Friday night, after naked really too late to call it Thursday so we'll call it really early naked Friday morning all thanks to Davey and his brilliant ideas! He is a real trend setter!
     
    Besides that I got to play 'Viv's Game' with my new pal... and it was fun and he asked me some great questions
     
    And... I should apologize if I was rude or ignored anybody when I was on the phone last night but OMG it was the most amazingly awesome conversation ever and I hope... fingers crossed, that he wasn't too drunk to remember it to it's fullest extent cause it was great! No, not good although he does have one stored in the bank still, but like I said so cool.... really indescribable and I am still smiling and I might just smile all day tomorrow too... and who knows about Monday, but it's looking good for now
     
    Big Hugs Sweetie and thanks for being rational! I knew I didn't just keep you around for your good looks Trying to not worry myself into a frenzy and you saved the day! My hero... :2hands:
     
    On to the writing... well let's just say I have one awesome paragraph done... and I promise to work on it some more! Right now even, as soon as I click publish, I'm on it! Hopefully the new chapter will be out by Tuesday.
     
    Giggles like a girl and proud of it too!

    Alright, I'll admit it... I'm worried... It seems like I do an awful lot of that lately and while the actual worrying is no fun at all, especially for me cause it's like a million times worse than for a normal person, I realized that it's because I have so many people I care about... that's a GOOD thing right?! I said... RIGHT! I guess I should also admit, since I'm admitting stuff , that I have absolutely wasted the last two days and gotten almost nothing written at all. Partly because I have been worried about a friend, partly because I have been worried about my sweetie and his family, partly because I have been busy working and stuff, and a teeny tiny bit because I have been reading like crazy!
     
    I just realized today that Rich and I have a whole day off together on Friday! Soooooooo yay! Even yayer is the fact that we could... have some time to ourselves if we wanted to drop the kids off in the morning to be 'entertained'
     
    Aside from that, I have pretty much been, cough-hack-choke-gurgling :wacko: still but at least I don't actually feel sick...
     
    Sweetie... I just wanted to say thanks again for being there for me anytime, all the time, whenever and always... you are a forever friend and I love you and my darlin' for it so much!
     
    Hugs guys and gals...
    Viv
