Some people, thankfully only a few, when they are in authority get some kind of power trip and think they are all powerful and can do what they want, it is bad when that person is in contact with kids.
When I did got on the bike I didn't even think about balance or anything, I had not been on a bike for 32 years, thankfully everything did turn out fine for me.

I was molested by my grandpa and a brother. When I said stop it did fineally stop. I never told my parents. I don't like dusting at all. I dust stuff on shelfs and the picture frames at least once a year. But I get it done eventually. Vaccumuing and sweeping at least once a week. Mopping when needed. Today is sunny so I think it will be a good day. Thank you all for the love and kindness. Each one of you are so wonderful and very strong. Hope everyone in California is safe from the fires out there. Carol & Daisy & Josey

I was bullied throughout school, but I think the bullying is so much worse now. There was a situation in our city last Thursday at a high school. Keep in mind schools here went back last Tuesday. On Thursday at a high school, where a good friend is principal, a 14 year old poured a combustible fluid on the hair of a 15 year old and set her on fire. The 14 year old has numerous charges against her and is still in custody. The victim had to be airlifted out of the province to a burn center. Our friend is dreading Tuesday (tomorrow) when the school will reopen after this event.
Well I don't have a cane yet, but am keeping up with my physio and it's more the stiffness and lack of range of motion that is affecting me. I still don't have an appointment to meet with the surgeon, but hopefully soon.
Buddy has had a few bad days with diarrhea and vomiting. But it has been so hot and humid here, so that might be affecting him.
Hope everyone has a good day

Carol I'm so sorry that happened to you but glad you were able to stand up for yourself.
Deb, yay on the titanium parts! You are now our bionic woman!
Leslie you wouldn't envy me if you saw my house! Even with all the cleaning, it is a mess!! That must have been a surprise to learn you couldn't swim!!
Anick, you are so right! Some people are great, and then they get into a position of power and it goes to their heads!! I'm jealous of your bike riding! I can't remember the last time l was on a bike!
Diane that is horrible! I agree, bullying has gotten so much worse! Earlier this year a teen was killed by a group of teens the media has been calling the Gilbert goons! Oh I'm sorry that buddy is having issues again! Big hugs for him!
My happy is I had to write a small report of what l do for senior outreach and l was able to remember quite a bit! I really need to keep note!

Diane, I hadn’t thought about how principals must feel/react to these things. Your poor friend must have an ulcer. ❤️

Good morning Happy Tuesday Carol I am so glad God has watched over you with all you went through as a child and even a teacher attacking you but you are indeed a very strong woman to come out of that. Lisa sorry you had similiar problems as a youth and glad you have come out of it and congratulations on such a great book discussion and the report for what you do for Senior Outreach Diane that was a horrible story about the girl setting fire to another girls hair I hope the victim survived. Sorry you were bulled to when young/ Sorry Buddy is having diarrhea and vomiting issues hopefully it is just the heat. We pray he gets better Leslie how are you doing. have you dog sat lately. Deb have you ever gotten Foofy to the vet yet. My happy I got all the Flamingo microwavable bowls done and working on a couple Christmas microwaveable bowls. I too was bulled as a child in grade school called ugly and four eyes that is why I have such low self esteem and my ex was but verbal and physically abusive to me since he knew I cam from a family that showed no love. It was good I met Ward showed men can be kind and loving and not hateful as the ex used to tell me all guys are like that and I was naive enough to believe him. Well as Carol said in the past so have to look forward to future for Happy Things. I am going to chair volleyball and crafts today. Hugs Dee, Dallas and Belle Anick you amaze me not on a bike for 32 years then do that bikejoring on rough terrain. You are so strong.

The girl that was assaulted is in serious condition in another province now. Our province doesn't have a burn unit for serious burns. One of the teacher's that came to her aid, was also hospitalized with burns, but he is improving in the hospital here. Our friend is having a very hard time dealing with this as are the other teachers and students. Counselling has been arranged for everyone who wants it. The school did not reopen today as it is still considered a crime scene, but should be open tomorrow.
Buddy ate not bad today. He likes to keep me on my toes, haha!
I've been told bike riding is a good exercise for my hips, and I do enjoy getting out on the bike.
Was told I might even be able to try pickle ball after I get my bionic hip!
Hope everyone had a good day

Carol, I hate dusting too, you do it and the next day all the dust as comeback. It is worst here in summer with the windows open, in winter it is, usually, more manageable. Diane, I did hear that on the news, it is so . There was some serious fighting in some schools here too earlier this week and last week but nothing as bad. Violence in general is on a rise everywhere. My town used to be quiet but now we hear about shootings in the streets every week all street gangs related.

Good morning Happy Wednesday Diane so that assault on the girl was recent how horrible I bet teachers and students do need counseling after seeing something that horrible. So bicycling is good exercise for your hip. Mommy never liked pickleball there are a few residents here who go to another subdivision to play pickleball as we don't have a pickleball court. Glad Buddy ate some today my prayers he comes to a full recovery now that your cooler weather should be coming Carol yes bullying is bad you hear so many stories where young kids take their life because of the bullying Anick dusting is like weed pulling which mommy hates but those weeds pop of more after a good rain which we have had plenty. But mommy not working in yard trying to get all her sewing done as our craft sale just around the corner. So horrible about shooting in streets every week. We pray for your safety. My happy today have most of my microwaveable bowls done going to make a couple of Wizard of Oz and and Orange one for a lady in my chair volleyball for her daughters been working on hot pads had to wash the other material before I can cut it out. Lately the last two morning when I started to post my internet stated I was offline I don't know if Zito trying to encourage us to use Fiber as never had problems before with internet going off in morning when I do all my posting. Hugs Dee, Dallas and Belle

Dee, around here they tried to force everyone to upgrade their internet. For those holding out, their internet has suspiciously slowed down. I don’t know how they figure they are going to get blood from a stone. I mean, if you don’t have the money, you don’t have the money….

Our internet is spotty, but we don't want to upgrade yet. We need more competition here for internet access and maybe the prices would be better.
Hope everyone has a good day

I know! These companies seem to think everyone has infinite funds available for communication. Sorry, we don’t. This past week I haven’t worked many hours. I can’t make a utility commitment for a huge sum each month.
By “good” do you mean “hot and dry”? In that case, definitely!

Hey there everyone! Sorry l missed posting yesterday! My car battery died. Again!! It is so frustrating! Not only did my car not start, but l was in such a hurry to get out of the heat that l locked my keys in my car! So the guy who came from AAA couldn't help because he didn't have the tool! I had to wait for another driver who did both! Diane l sure hope that young girl survived that viscous attack and hugs to your friend. I hope Buddy is doing well today! Leslie, my dad used to say that to my mom when she asked for child support!! Dee I wish my aunt was still alive! I would have you make her some wizard of Oz stuff! She was a director in community theatre and they did that show! Anick, I agree. It is getting bad everywhere. It makes me and the political situation just makes it worse! Carol, I feel bad for them too and also bad for the girl who did it. She has ruined her own life as well. My happy is Chuck is bringing me a newish battery before l get off work!!
