8/8 (I skipped a couple of days cause I actually was able to read and post then) LOL
Cheryl time of us electricity - interesting - why don't they do that here instead of rolling brown outs
although we've never had the rolls here on LI but the city has had them before

apparently during the recent heat wave, some electric companies asked for voluntary reductions to help with the power load but our company said - NO go ahead and use it which turns out that indeed they had plenty of power - that they were buying at a very high price! we could have all easily conserved and saved resources and money but NO - they wouldn't do it :( shame on them ........ I'm sure this will change now that people know the situation

LOL I see Sunny commented on the electric thing too :) They suggest that we wash dishes and laundry at non peak times but we get nothing for it so folks don't do it - I do it cause that's when I'm home! :)

8/9 - what wonderful graphics posted each day - thanks one and all
ozzie too much adrenaline - hmmm that's an interesting situation - glad you know what's going on (and thanks Bob for keeping an eye on our lady) :)

8/10 - topa luv the bear photo of mom 3 cubs! ES saw mom/3 at Philmont in NM when he hiked! mom had come down from her normal habitat and was really becoming a nuisance but with the cubs to protect there was some worry - she was trapped and then the 3 cubs caught - all taken to a new home!

a quick update - I had a very long talk with my DB last night - the counselor has determined that my SIL is not wanting to face her contribution in the marriage issues and DB has started to move forward in healing himself - my DB and I have a very long history together - lots of it painful - a lot of it being things that happened out of our control as children - :(

I took control of me 25 years ago and in that I met ES - one of the best things ever to come into my life. My DB never quite got to that point of letting the past go :( I am truly sorry if their marriage does not survive this, but I am not totally surprised - I still love my SIL and she will continue to be my "sis" no matter what - she and I talked on Sunday for quite some time.

But DB needs to take this journey if he is ever to be whole ...... and my SIL has a need to sort some things out as well. As I told him last night - not one of us is perfect and all we can do is work to be the best we can and to love ourselves first or we can't be open to love those around us.

I'm hoping for the best for both of them <3

Deb - Have a safe trip to Ohio and looking forward to lots of pics of the wedding celebration. Have a super time.

Wishing your DB and SIL peace in whatever road they choose to take. :X: I'm sure that by having your support at this difficult time means a lot to both of them.

Heading off to more soccer games later this morning. I think the venue has changed due to the rainy weather and they will play indoors.

Had dinner last night with George, DD and SIL, a fun evening. George is coming to the game today and will take photos of Team Toronto, will post them here later.

Posted Image Have a great game today, Team Toronto!

How nice that you were able to meet up with George and his family, Carole. He'll get some terrific action photos of the game I'm sure, since his baseball ones always turn out so well.

Deb, it is really sad about your brother and SIL after 37 years together. At least they did try to get some counselling, some people don't. You are being a strong support for both of them. Knowing your brother well and the background he has would really help when talking to him.

Have a safe trip and enjoy these next days before, during, and after the wedding! I'm excited for you and everyone! The special day is almost here! I hope we get to see some pictures. :clk:

oh one more thing - a friend of DS was going to play an acoustical guitar piece for Sara as she walks down the aisle but an issue popped up that can't be worked around so the friend can't make it  :wacko:

New plan: DS will play the piece on his guitar instead as Sara walks down the aisle to take her place beside him....... :'( how many tissues am I gonna need to get thru this ceremony...... :**:
