Happy Thanksgiving y’all. What am I thankful for?  Frankly not to put a damper on anything but I’m thankful this year is almost over. Why?  Between cancer treatments, surgery for that and a hip replacement, PMR causing me to be on prednisone ten months now and the weight gained from that and now I have more if you can stand it. All Chuck’s surgeries and his upcoming hip replacement in December. 

I think I told you Kyle was arrested a few months ago. Originally it was for auto theft but that was dropped as the guy that lent him the car got mad at him and called it stolen but stupid Kyle was charged with probation violation five counts from years ago. To make a long story short my buddy is now serving five years.  I am heartbroken. 

I will overcome but right now I have to stop and recover a bit. Stay with me- I will be back.

  1. Sorry to hear about your friend, Lies/probation violations always come back to haunt us.
    Bee, this has been a bad year for many but your year was especially awful.
    I think of you and Chuck everyday.
    Hope today is a nice one for you both.

    cheers, parsnip

  4. I was so sad to read this. Sometimes life throws things at us that seem insurmountable. It doesn't matter if we do surmount them, it just sucks. You're a strong woman, Kyle is a good friend, Chuck is a good son. All I can do is shake my head, wish you well, and know you are a survivor. Next year will be better. I promise.

  6. You've had a very rough year with a lot of sad events. I hope from the bottom of my heart that next year has more ease and happiness in it, dearest Bee.

  8. I'm glad to see posts from you. I was concerned. 2017 has been unbelievably tough on more friends than I care to count and on me as well. I don't blog about it but my husband died from cancer 9 months after it was discovered. There has been other negatives but I try not to dwell on them and nothing compares with losing your soul mate. I know there is no guarantee that 2018 will be better, but I think many are looking for that new calendar to bring new hope and promises.

    Best wishes to you and all you hold dear.

  9. Oh, Miss Bee. For those of us who have lived long enough, we know that life goes in cycles for all of us and this has been a bad one for you. Hang on because better times will come. Thinking of you.

  10. Dear Bee, I know you have gone thru so much. But I have always admired your girt girl. You are tough. Stay strong. So sorry and Kyle, I hope he can come out and get right. Blessings to Duck. xoxo, Susie

  11. Oh, my! Sooo sorry to hear about Kyle. Not long ago Al and I googled a business aquantance of more than 25 years. He'd sold his business so I was trying to find his home number. We were going to be in Gainesville and wanted to meet up with him for dinner. We hadn't seen him in a few years. Imagine our shock to see that he was incarcerated after having been convicted of "Traveling To Meet Minor To Commit Unlawful Sexual Offense". Could not believe it. Still can't believe it. Makes you wonder if you really know anybody.

    This year has been rough one for you and Chuck but I know you'll both come through with flying colors.

    It's been a bit rough here. My dad is declining quickly and it's really taking a toll on my mother. Right now he's too bad for skilled nursing anymore but not bad enough for hospice. My mother is adamant about not moving in with us and I'll be doggoned if I'm going to put him in a nursing home. So we're between a rock and a hard place right now. One day at a time. That's all we can do.

    I pray that next year will be sooo much better for you and Chuck. xoxo

  12. Bee, I am sooo sorry to read about Kyle! He just can’t get his head straight and is paying a hard price for his stupidity.

    So hope Chuck does well with his surgery and you both get and stay healthy! We have lots of catching up to do! We will be down there around Jan 1. Miss you bunches!!!

    Big hugs, honey...

  13. Put this year in the rear view mirror and hope for a better 2018. Hopefully Chuck's surgery will be a success and he won't be in pain anymore. I am so sad to hear about Kyle; I know you must miss him terribly. Maybe he can get his sentence reduced with good behavior.

  14. I am sorry to read all the bad news, especially around the holidays. Your success rate, however, for getting through the rough patches is 100%. I have no doubt you will rise. Have faith in the new year ahead!
