We have rain for the next few days as well. It's pouring right now. I hope it stops before I'm supposed to walk to BJ's. I've just done my shopping order. I didn't put doughnuts but I have ordered a 720g tub of chocolates. Maybe I'll add doughnuts later. :D

Hi Liese ..... I'm not in France now but I spent 15 lovely years there. I take my hat off to you for getting your French Literature ....... I didn't ....... but I got French Language, English Language and Literature. I got other certificates for subjects that were no earthly use...

Hi Silver Squirrel ...... Berlin is a lovely place. I'd love to go to the Oktoberfest at Munich. I think I'll put it on my bucket list. :D

My husband and I were in Berlin last December. It was cold and wet but we loved the city and its vibe. Hope to go back.

Are you still in France, MD? I love the French - my degree is in French Language and Literature. Your set -up for biking sounds wonderful!

It's good that you have daughter to lend an ear. At least you can let off a bit of steam. I really hope you won't have to start again but if you do ..... don't risk having son's involvement. He's been no help at all. You couldn't make a worse mess than he has.

You won't let it beat you. Can you have a moan to daughter about son? A good grumble can often make you feel better. You really must have a celebration when it's all sorted.

I won't (or can't) let this kill me...it's the most life draining thing I have ever been through and son just drags it on and on and on!!!!!

Sounds like a smoke screen from son. He sure takes after his dad. I know you want to shake it from your soul but it's not going to go away. But I sooo understand how you feel. Oh well ...... it has to work out eventually.

son says the guy who does the bonds is on vacation and no one in the office can find the paperwork...son is going to try and make a copy of the papers from his email somehow...I told him I'm sure the judge wants the original copies but what the hell do I know...I've had it and am...

I wonder if you could ring and tell them that son's lost the papers. I'm sure they could send them directly to him. If you don't do it ..... son's not going to bother. Do daughters know that he's being so stupid? We are strong women but just sometimes things are overwhelming. ...
