Tis what I think Friday Nights will become around here......................
Hey I can't be shoving up pics of creations EVERY day of the week!!!!
OK you got me - I have achieved VERY little today. Was a jobs day and a sit and chill day .............
I am sort of waiting for what dares /challenges will be released tonight to get my teeth into over the weekend ........ but then the danger is I have found a fair few sites offering them - so could be busy - or have to be selective - either way tis all good fun!
But even so I think I quite like the idea of random chat ................
So come on then - what shall we talk about? Well for me I am still on total cloud 9. I Love my new house still, feel totally chilled. My family and friends are happy - and hey - life doesn't get much sweeter than that!!
I have joined a local Lions group round here so will be doing voluntary work starting next week which is FAB. I do love doing a good deed - cos you get good vibes from both sides.
I know there is a fair bit of trauma going on in Blogland right now - and sorry if I seem so happy ......... but I have had my fair share of shit and all I can say to anyone going through it is ........... IT WILL Pass........... Honest. It may get very bad - BUT if you stay strong and fight it each day will get a little easier .........
Look at me - almost normal again!!
OK maybe not - who would ever want to be normal!!!!
So HUGE love and hugs to anyone having a total pants time of it - have a bit of my good vibes - I have plenty to share .....................
Love Bex xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Thanks so much, Bex. Really appreciate the support. I'm feeling a lot better.
How are you after all this time? Has it gotten easier? I know time helps to heal wounds...it has helped me, but every now and then I get reminded of how much I miss my dad...he died when I was 21, but was sick with leukemia since I was 16. The last few years he just wasn't himself anymore. He couldn't really talk, couldn't walk...it sucked basically, for him and for us. It was the worst thing in the world to watch him suffer, to see him go through what he went through. It's terrible to think of anyone going through the same kind of thing. Things aren't as bad now, except of course when the holidays come around.
I hope you are doing well. Also, I'm so happy to hear that Rachel is trying to quit smoking. Will you be coming over to the states for any of the upcoming shows?
Hi Sarah
It does get easier I promise xx
I lost Mum Very suddenly so I think I am fortunate in my memories - as they are all happy ones.
Hold on to those happy memories, and when you find it hard close your eyes and remmember a big hug ......
Works for me
Just remember life is meant to be happy - life is what you make it ...... so be happy and make those living - and gone - happy for you xxxx
As for getting over to the states ......... I would love to ....... but I have a dog here, and work etc so it is hard - i am trying to sort something out though!
Love and hugs
Bex xxxxx
Hi Bex.
If you are bored, I could invite you to get "crafty" with my just "turned 11 year old daughter", and her 15 closest friends....ARGGH! They are all here for a "sleep over and make the Mom crazy" party. I think we are off to a good start, as the DRAMA, started in school today. Me, in my bubble had no idea (my little one, wasn't involved, THANK GOD!)....but, all seems to be "right" now. Apologies were accepted, and we're off.....It is so true, that "this too shall pass", and tomorrow really is another day....so, we all just need to hang in there.
Someone said that we are under a "blue moon" (whatever that means? I will "GOOGLE IT"!
OK, this kept me busy, whilst I am listening for the sounds of distress....ah, they do sound like they are having fun....pick up is tomorrow at 10AM....YIPEE!
I really do love having GIRLS....but, everyday is an emotional rollercoaster....oh well, that was always my favorite ride; the rollercoaster!
Have a good rest of the weekend! And, yes, we are spoilt for the "crafty pics" ;-)

Oh Bex I am so glad to hear that you are happy and well settled.
You HAVE gone through the ringer, haven't you?
It's so true that the darkness always passes...
I have mentioned this too many times, but my mom was in a coma 2 years ago from Oct- Dec and she passed away on Dec 22nd. It was an open eyed coma...it was hell.
Anyway, sweet Rachel used to email me then and her support was just incredible...my mom was a fan of her debut cd!
So it looks like it is in your genes to be so empathetic.
I know what YOU went through losing your mom so tragically. It sucks so bad. I miss her so much but it does get easier.
At least I am no longer drinking a quart of Jack Daniels a day now! I went through a spell where I was a total wastoid in secret. Terrible but the pain was unbearable.
Anyway, it's such a nice community around here - pulling for eachother - sharing our joys and sadness...really beautiful.
We can thank Ms. Rachel for this! :)
I am really happy for you my dear!
Good for you for volunteering.
Way 2 go.
You always get way more than you give, I think... (not that that's a motivation, but you know what I mean).
Now I must get off this dang computer and CLEAN MY ROOM!
(My mom cleaned mine until I was 16! Such a spoiled child I was!).
Take care and be well.
Love,
Suesxx
Damn. Missed the invite to chat. Was in the pub.
Do not apologise for being happy. You deserve it. Well done on the charitee thing. But watch those Lions. They are like the masons. They have weird initiation ceremonies where they offer-up un-touched ladies to the local priests. Be careful!!!
Real glad your happy bex, you certainly did me a good deed that day at the hospital when my mum was dying- you are a diamond, what you say makes sense
Lots of love
I have just woken up from playing an A-Team drinking game.
Urrggghhhhhh
lryicsgrl - You are brave!! Hope the girls allowed you to get some sleep ........ we used to be a nightmare when we were allowed sleepovers ...... So much so that Mum and Dad bought a log cabin and furnished it down the bottom of the garden! Them were the days ... the boys sneaking to the bottom of the garden after parents went to bed!!
Sue - Ah I didn't know that about your Mum (((HUG))) AND did youtidy your room yet??
Delbut, Neil and James ...... all in a neat little row - and blimey all being nice and good?? What are you boys on eh? Is it cos I am a crafter now ................
Love and hugs to all
Love Bex
Bex,
I think my husband may need some advice from your dad... these girls, are gonna kill em!
btw, i slept like a log..i didn't hear a thing, i think god blessed me, as the girls told me they were so loud and were up all night (YIKES!)...my dog, zoey, even faked them out a couple of times, they heard her walking around upstairs (they were in the basement) and they ducked into their sleeping bags...when there was no sign of me, they did a quick "check" and found zoey, wagging her nubby little doberman tail....then, they carried on...yes, bravery and exhaustion, just the right combination to survive an 11 year old's sleepover party!!
now, off to vacuum the cheesedoodles off the carpet!!
xxSue
Your voluntary work paragraph caught my attention. We say volunteer work, but I am sure our way is not standard.
I am trying to teach my son how nice and important it is to help others. He likes it. I like to do it commando style, like find people who wouldn't otherwise be helped. But that's not always easy.
Um, thanks for your words of encouragement to those who need it. (Truly all of us at some point!) I just looked out my window; there's a feast of St. Jude today!
And the beat goes on. Have a nice weekend.
In being voluntarily arty together,
Elizabeth
Hey Bex!!
Hopefully we'll see you in the chatroom tonight. I think The Who's bit on Radio 2 goes out at 9-10PM tonight online. Dunno if In The Attic is going out live beforehand do you?! I can't deal with all the clock changing I've had to do today!!!
Ben (not at the Roundhouse:( tonight, pants!!) Reeve
OK erm not sure ...........
Will try to get to chat room though !!!!
Love Bex
Bex,
If you look closely at that pic of David, with Rachel, he seems to be saying: "BEX". And, she is saying: "Yeah, yeah, she is fabulous"......Ok, maybe not, but it could be!!!
