What a fantastic ten days. My daughter, Ellen, my grandchildren, Alexa and Bailey, and my son in law, Patrick, headed back home to North Carolina earlier today. Along with my other daughter, Heather, who lives here in New York, I got a chance to get away from the tedious everyday routine I'm used to.
Activities included an amusement park, a Mets game, the Bronx Zoo...

Okay. Enough with the sad blogs.
I'm looking forward to next Friday big time. My older daughter and my grandchildren are coming in from North Carolina. The three of them are staying up here for 10 days. My son in law will be coming in the following Friday and spending the weekend.

Nolan_Void sure did post a lot in the group. He will definitely be missed. I just hope that the Fascism thread in my group wasn't a major reason for him leaving.
The funny thing about these matters is that oftentimes members will come back to SG after leaving for an indefinite period of time. Perhaps he will come back, too.
I use to PM LostLucy when she was still on SG. She got zotted somehow. I'm not exactly sure what happened, but it is unfortunate nonetheless. Should LostLucy want to contact me, you could let her know that my SG e-mail address is SG.Holden.Caulfield@gmail.com.
I'm glad that things are going well with your family. My sister recently visited from overseas and my mother is in town for that reason, so it was nice to see them.
Take care,
Holden

Thank you love.
Sorry to be such a downer with this post.
Today would nave been the 62nd birthday of my late wife. She passed away on September 23rd 2005. I've spoken to both of my daughters today as we've marked this very sad day.
The best thing in the whole world right now for me is that we are so close and can depend on one another...

I promise to post a more upbeat blog in a few days.

I'm not sure what to think of the Griffey trade. He's still an ok hitter, with a decent amount of power left, but I'm not sure if he's even that much of an improvement over Swisher in center-field. The .240ish batting average isn't exactly something to brag about either. But who knows, maybe he'll make actually make a difference in the last two months of the regular season, and in the playoffs.
BTW: anyone who is familiar with Rochester gets bonus points in my book.

It's so hard to read some of my friends' blogs lately. Too many good people are dealing with death, illness, financial problems and relationship issues. It's tough to take sometimes.
On the other hand, I see so much strength emanating from these same people. I try to give these friends as much support as I can. I know how important a kind word and a...

I actually took that pic this moring before I left for clinical. I just wanted to curl back up with him and sleep some more. It hard leaving while you kid is still asleep. But I thought that it sucked when I had to wake him and scoot him out of the house. I guess it just sucks when you really want to be with your kid and you absolutely have to be somewhere else.
I hope you are doing just fine.

there goes our season-long division lead tonight
For the second week in a row my focus is on my problems dealing with some of the technical issues on SG.
Last week I stated that I couldn't use the inserts since I had my new computer installed. I want to thank those who gave me suggestions both on this page and through PMs as to how to fix the problem. I also wanted...

I'm sorry to hear that hun...if I was in New York, I'd be there in a New York Minute!!
Thanks for the kind words on my blog this morning...it was a great day for it!

I'd like to think that I'm a reasonably intelligent prson. However, when it comes to computers, I am totally clueless. In fact, I would aspire to rise to the level of 'clueless'.
I need help from anyone and everyone with a problem I've had ever since I had my new computer installed. I'm going to re-create my message to the help desk and their reply....

Ha, I know nothing about hasselhoff.
I used to be way more active on the site, but eventually I decided to make my presence here a little more low key--but without giving up my name. somewhere along the line I decided to become THAT dave h.
Anyways, I'm always up for debate if its something I know about and care about. My liberal friends sometimes seem to think I'm a closet republican while my fellow Marines all think I'm a crazy liberal wacko (being from san francisco doesn't help). I just can't win.

Hey, thanks. Sometimes it helps just knowing someone's reading. Yeah, my girl's doing a bit better now; as I'd hoped, actually getting settled here in Baltimore has helped. She's also about to start on this anxiety program thing that had helped her before, so I'm cautiously optimistic.
And I can't help you with the computer thing. When I was in middle school the computer lab computers would get all screwy when I entered the room... I'm not even exagerrating.

I've been reflecting on my SG experience the past day or two. I never would have known about this site or joined it if not for Lyrical posting her first set here in early February. I'm glad I joined. I've met quite a few terrific people and found several groups and topics that I'm interested in. In fact, I just adjusted my account so that...

Thanks for your good will and wishes. Last night I was just kind of in a torrent of emotion and I had to let it all expel itself. Today the situation is either the same or worse, but my internal condition is much much better. And it never hurts to have good friends like you who I know are listening out there, so thanks again.
jewelz:
I really appreciated your kindness, and judging by the comments left here by others, you are truly a caring person! We could certainly use more of those here on SG, and just in life in general.
I accepted your friend request, and am looking forward to the opportunity to get to know you better!!
thanks again, you are very sweet

Went to see Mets-Yankees last Friday night. When I got back, I found that I couldn't get on the internet, let alone SG. My internet provider couldn't help me over the phone, so a tech person came over on Wednesday. He told me that my computer was all but done. I guess that's what I get for buying a used one from a friend about...

I was never interested in that play. Seems a bit contrived to me. Thanks for your warm thoughts. I don't think I'll be going back to Pro. I think I just had a moment of weakness. I'm cool though. Hopefully someone will hire me soon. I would like to move out of my APT before 2013.

You are gonna lso love having a new computer. My old one sucked and I kept it for way to long. New computers make life easier.
My relationship with Mae-Ann keeps getting stronger and more serious. We are meeting and getting to know more and more of each other's friends and family. So far everyone has genuinely felt that we are right for each other and can plainly see how happy we've made each other as well.

Congrats on your Sox winning the first two. Yesterday was a blowout but todays game was close. I don't think they sweep... but anything can happen and at best or worst, depending how it's looked at, it's a draw with each team winning in their respective parks.
apexxx:
so very thankful for the sweep over the Cubs. now their fans cant say shit anymore and we can continue to enjoy this great season! now we just gotta get those Twins to lose a lot more! thankfully the Tigers and Twins will be playing 6 games soon, so its up to us to just keep winning!
While physically, I feel like shit right now, I do want to post the following short and very sweet message. My tumor is BENIGN! YAY!!!!!!
I want to thank everyone who wished me well and had me in their thoughts. I can't properly put into words how much it means to me.

I've seen your comments on her blog and from what I've read you do seem like a really nice guy. I look forward to talking to you more.
Is Mae Ann your girlfriend?
