I'm supposed to be on satellite broadband by the end of the month and look forward to hearing it. The picture looks great. Bro sent me a Hank Williams something a week or two ago, I think, and I've got it in line to play as well. I don't remember which song he sent. 21330. Ulgine Barrows - 3/11/2007 6:48:47 AM wonkers2,
Thank you for posting that Hank Williams Lovesick Blues--Video thing.
I am sorry I smashed all that china & crystal, in a way (I posted about that a while back).
I found it was worth a lot, if ebay is my guide, kinda rare stuff.
The boys are gone. I am so relieved.
The big boy left his moldy paperbacks behind for me to clean up, of course.
But he left because I smashed things, so I guess that is good and well.
Everything has its price....
So yeah, I guess Lovesick Blues about sums it up.
Thanks
I really didn't like living with him, but I love him. 21331. arkymalarky - 3/11/2007 7:01:10 AM Solicited (by virtue of the nature of your posts) advice:
Ulgine, I don't know what you're looking for here or when you smash china, but you're only going to find it when you turn inward and look from there outward onto the effect you have on the people around you, especially the ones you love most.
I say that from the perspective of one cursed with a vile temper--and a mate who has the same--which makes it hard for me to do what I advised you myself, but has made it possible to live with that man, my dearest friend and life partner, for 25 years and running. And it gets easier all the time. 21332. arkymalarky - 3/11/2007 7:05:15 AM Some things broken can't be put back together and are gone forever. Not much use in looking back. But that's not true of most things, and we may too easily give up on them, believing that they are beyond repair. It's very difficult to know the difference, however.
G'nite. 21333. wonkers2 - 3/11/2007 2:46:31 PM Arky, I was raised in Louisiana on Hank Williams. What you can find on YouTube is amazing. Many of the old songs. Must be they are off copyright?? Or somebody's ignoring the copyrights. 21334. arkymalarky - 3/11/2007 6:42:24 PM His son's probably staying too drunk to keep up. Unless he's cleaned up again since last I heard. 21335. wonkers2 - 3/11/2007 7:42:10 PM Too bad. Like father like son. Hank Sr. had a bit of a problem. Some say to relieve back pain. 21336. judithathome - 3/11/2007 11:31:42 PM There IS no Hank song for me...no surprise. Ha! 21337. judithathome - 3/11/2007 11:46:00 PM Arky, 21331 and 21332 are not only excellent advice but are beautifully written. 21338. alistairConnor - 3/12/2007 12:46:55 AM Ulgine, I'm sorry.
I'm not sure if I'm sorry he left, or if I'm sorry you still love him.
And your boy left with his father? What's going on? Is he OK? 21339. arkymalarky - 3/12/2007 1:08:43 AM Thank you, Judith. When someone keeps engaging in destructive behavior in your presence, even when it has nothing to do with you, you sometimes just get to the point where you feel like it's time to say something, whatever they end up doing about it. 21340. wonkers2 - 3/12/2007 1:16:33 AM For Judith with love from Hank 21341. wonkers2 - 3/12/2007 1:19:35 AM For Judith from Dooley 21342. Ms. No - 3/12/2007 10:48:30 AM Thoughtful,
Damn. I'm so sorry to hear about the fight your mother has ahead of her.
I tend to think of you as the resident nutrition buff, have you looked into the theories on the Alkaline Diet? My friend who had breast cancer a couple of years ago chose that route and has been very successful so far --- of course, even though we have treatments for cancer it's still much of a mystery why some people beat the odds and others are struck like lightning out of the blue.
I know very little other than what she explained to me about the theory of keeping the body slightly alkaline to discourage the growth of cancer cells, but it made a certain amount of sense and I figure it can't ever hurt to seek dietary help to aid other treatments.
My very best to your mother and your family. I'll be thinking of you. 21343. Magoseph - 3/12/2007 12:52:38 PM Hello, everyone--I just realized that daylight-saving time is in place. Let's see now if the Mote is on the same time. 21344. alistairconnor - 3/12/2007 12:54:38 PM Ha. The server is on New Zealand time, and doesn't know or care about your US daylight saving. 21345. Magoseph - 3/12/2007 12:55:49 PM Oh, well, I fixed my clock and it fits with your post's time/ 21346. thoughtful - 3/12/2007 5:55:26 PM Thanks, Pelle. I miss having your active participation as well.
Thanks Ms.No. I'd not heard about it but I will investigate. Can't hurt to try.
I really think part of why my mom is going through this is she's been on hormone replacement therapy for maybe 25 years. Estrogen has been determined to play a role in lung cancer so chances are it contributed to her getting cancer now as opposed to, say, in her 90s as her mother did. Mom has since quit the stuff and hopefully that will help slow the growth of the cancer that's left.
