I'm BACK!!!!!!! :-) Today was good... real good.
Well, we had snowflakes!!! LOL. close enough!!!. Was hoping to be here for snow... but looks like I'll be in the "Sunny" climate land!!!! :-) Life has this way of coming full circle - Thank GOD. I've spent some time going over the past 3 years in my head. During a recent meeting I was asked by an old friend: "Why are you in GA?" It took a long time to really come up with the answer. The real answer. Not the old standby "I needed to recharge". I told him later that I only made one mistake. "Playing scapegoat". Simple as that. But I'd do it all over again for my old friend. Because that's what friends are for. Now that I've taken one last look at it all... I'm moving on. The new life: Fortunately in the past weeks things have turned around - really turned around!!!!! (I haven't said anything ... well, cause, yeah... I didn't want to jinxx it). I'll just leave it at that. :-) Life's good, baby!!!!!! I thank you, Erika, for you support, your help, and your guidence during this time. I thank all of you at this time -especailly during this time as it's what we should do (Thanksgiving)- for being there to talk to, for your support, and for your love. I won't mention you all as I know this could put you in a "tight" spot. But I think all of you know who you are. I'll be traveling quite a bit as things progress so if I don't get the chance to say so personally - Have a Merry Christmas. I don't know what more to say... just.. thanks for being there. Thanks for everything. And thank God for the return of my guardian angel!!!!!! Love you all, R.D. Current Mood: can you say "Woo HOO!" |

Moving..... AGAIN!
Well, after salvaging very little from Katrina's wrath and the temporary stay in Columbus ... I'm moving again! This time into the mountains - don't think it'll flood there! Will be north of Atlanta in a wonderful brand new home in the foothills of the mountains. It's a short 40 minute drive into Atlanta - and 20 to the north atlanta communities. The trees are changing color and it's just beautiful there. Closing is on the 31st so I'll be offline for several days around the 29th thru nov. 3rd. Mar- glad you had a fun trip..... and I hope that the trip home was safe. Cricket: hope disney was much fun! Take care all, R.D. |

Movin'
Been a while as the packing and workin' has taken much of my time. Well the move is here. Loading up the 2 dogs and my cat and heading out Monday early a.m. I emailed many of you quickly with the information. If you didn't get it PLEASE email me and I'll send you the update. The 323 area code phone will be the one to use. It's my new home number. I'll be without the net for only about 36 hours! not to bad. Hope everyone is well. Later, R.D. |
