Hello! Long time no see! There has been a lot that has happened over the summer and right now I am incapable of doing any gardening. I just wanted to drop by and say hello, I haven't dropped off the face of the earth yet. Hope everyone is doing well!

Cheryl! So glad to see you on here.

I hope things calm down in your life and that you can get back to normal soon.

Glad you dropped by to let us know you haven't dropped off the face of the earth. The yet part sounds sort of scary. Hopefully you can hold on thru whatever is happening.

Hi Cheryl, welcome back.

Hi Cheryl! Glad to see you! Hopefully you get everything worked out and are able to spend more time with us soon!!

I have been wondering what happened to you.

Meeeeeeeee too,,,,,,,, glad you checked in,,,, I saw you as I was scrolling down my phone numbers on my cell phone and thought 'HEYYYYY what's going on with Cheryl,,,,, ,, >>>???? maybe I oughta give her a call??
now that you've checked in I still may give you a call :wink: ,

cheryl! i'm so glad you checked it!!!

It's good to hear from you all! As you know, our summer started out with Ashley breaking her ankle and needing surgery. That all turned out fine, she's all healed and the kids are back in school now. Because of Ashley's ankle we had to postpone doing a summer vacation thing and wild waves (our water and rides park). Then Aros got laid off and had to go on unemployment, which was a little less than half what he was making. Then my wages were being garnished for an almost 8 year old emergency room bill. So, we were pretty broke, not to mention Ashley's medical bill costs. We had to cancel doing anything for the summer because we just couldn't afford it. The kids were kind of bummed but they understood. Aros' mom also states at our house for a week in July, that's always a bit stressful. My mom and I got into a fight over going to MN for 5 days in November, but we resolved that. Then last week I managed to sprain a muscle in my shoulder blade area which has rendered my left arm vitually useless. We're both still catching up on bills, Aros' employer called him back to work so things are starting to look up. I've had some other more personal problems that I won't go into here. Glad to be back and I'll try to check in more often when people are awake.

So sorry for all your troubles Cheryl. Hoping things get better for you and real soon.

i agree with tam, i hope it keeps looking up without the two steps forward one step back process.

i just wanted to say hi also.ihavenotbeen on here in awhile either. i also wanted to say thank you for the birthday wish , from the gardener's forum.

Good to see you again, take care.
