how very catty of you, katherine...rowr! ;-)

Valorosa said...

Wow, Saturn is such a pretty planet.

Anyone whose freedom has been ripped away forcefully.

At least for a while ;-)

An album by my favorite band.

Seriously, some of the songs on this compilation album really are saturnine. Anyone ever heard "The Big Chair" (not the album, but the song)? Titled after the movie Sybil? Almost no lyrics, but still. Whoa.

Sorry, off on a tangent there.

Yeah, I know that's a little catty, but if you met her..... well, catty again, but I'm very happy for him... ;-)

the tears on my cheeks are from laughter. well, catty again, but I'm very happy for him... " priceless. (wipe)

hey, let the claws fly, they're not aimed at me. its healthy to express that from time to time.

erin, "songs from the big chair" and the title track from "sowing the seeds" is really all the TFF i've heard. but i've loved what i've heard. is it all worth checking out? would you recommend particular songs or albums? do you want to make me a sweet new dream TFF playlist?

all i do is deliver and listen to music. i'm always hungry for new aural input that makes my brain dance as well as my booty.

Most everyone in line at a grocery store.

Jon - If you like the dark and moody kind of thing, anything off The Hurting'. One song from that album, 'Mad World' has been remade by Gary Jules/Micheal Andrews and is relatively popular, you may have heard it...but I like the TFF version better, probably because they wrote it. Otherwise try the album I mentioned above - I'm not familiar with all of it, but many are great.

Cats

Tyler Dawn said...

Dang Sue, that's your answer for EVERTYTHING!

Since it's still open, how about

Cinderella's stepfamily

Tyler Dawn said...

And why exactly would anyone slander exquisite Saturn by making such a word in the first place?

Jeannette Altes said...

Tyler~
Probably goes back to the Roman mythology - Saturn was one of the Roman gods... whom the planet and the day were named after...

News flash

Talk about Saturnine ...

I have a huge prayer request.

If you would pray ... My son and I have fallen under the care of a poor psychiatrist. She is quite sociopathic in her behaviour. She has lied and manipulated. She has tried to come between me and my family members which is something that will back fire on her but the fact that she has done this amazes me.

She wants to try to remove me as substitute decision maker for my son who does not speak for himself. Just because I want her to check into our history with a drug that she wants to use that has been harmful to him in the past.
Is this too much to ask?

Communicating to her is like talking to a person who has made up their mind and doesn't care what is said.... the old hear what you want to hear thing.

Please, I need wisdom in truck loads from above ...

Thanks guys ... hugs

Tyler Dawn said...

Praying darlin, so sorry this is happening, pretty scary!

Jeannette Altes said...

Praying, Valorosa.

Valarosa,
Sending you hugs and prayers. Stand strong, you are his advocate.

Sue said...

I know, Tyler. I'm very boring. But at some point, cats will be the best answer, and will win me glory and kudos fromt his newest of my new communities, Apples 2 Apples.

Sheesh, I need to get me my own internet connection, to write me some blog posts, so i stop writing inane comments everywhere :)

Valorosa - that sounds so complicated. Yikes! Praying your way.

Valorosa ~ Praying for you and yours right now.

Tyler Dawn said...

Has anyone heard from Cynthia? She okay?

Kimberly Preske said...

Was wondering myself...hoping she is just enjoying summer.

Anonymous said...

Oh, ya'll I am so sorry that I went AWOL!!!

I was just distracted by other things and I don't have the Apples2Apples link in a prominent place to remind me. I am changing that today!

The winner is Susan with the answer Michal, daughter of Saul.

Tyler Dawn said...

No biggie, I was just hoping you were busy and not sick or something, we ALL get busy lol

Delirious said...

Valorosa,
Sounds like some serious red flags. I say follow your gut instincts and find another doctor.

and yes...I'm praying :)

Rob Harrison said...

Praying as well.

Erin said...

I'm praying too, Val.

Susan Barnes said...

I've been praying too, Val.

Poor old Michal, I feel a bit sorry for her, getting dragged away from Paltiel who apppeared to really love her and then being only one of many of King David's wives.

as one who has had no end of doctors and opinions over my son... do not hesitate to find another doctor. i'm not sure what the situation is, but if they are crossing the line between personal/professional and doing unethical things and not even listening to you, (as though the doctor is the one in charge... HA!) then don't walk, run.

of course it may not be that easy to find another doctor. i don't know. will certainly pray not only for your wisdom, but for another doctor who is just what your son needs.
