Ever just want to tear your hair out, or someone else's? If you cannot restore a sense of balance, you will run away from home? Just want to say some things without the constraints of staying on topic? Well, this thread is for you! If you just need a short break to let it all hang out, be a brat, then come on, you can do it. No holding back! Go for it, you can do it.
If he wins the classic - it will be televised on nbc in the late afternoon - I'm sure the grandstands will be rocking
I was there in 2009 when Zenyatta beat the boys - I was hoarse for a couple of days from yelling - go baby go !!!
No, really, I cannot wait!
Five more days until the strangest US presidential election of my lifetime is complete. That will be nice. :-)
This comment's not really in response to anything lol. Spent some free time at work today looking at the Cleveland Indians fans' responses to their team not winning the title. I think everyone has a right to be proud of how well these teams played. A Game 7 that went extra innings has only happened like 4 times in baseball history.
Yes, yes, quite a season.

I want all caregivers to be especially careful of their eyesight and health. My eye problem was caused by a spontaneous retinal detachment...fluid leaked out the back of my eye and caused retina to detach spontaneously. Didn't feel pain, just went blind in that eye very quickly. Very puzzling and frightening as I didn't fall or hit my head or anything to cause that to happen. The cataract and clouded vision formed from the retinal surgery a year ago. They say about 85% get the cataracts after the surgery. The second surgery for removal of cataract and placing of a new lens right inside the eye comes about a year later. I can see out of that eye now for the first time in a year, but retinal scarring has caused me not to be able to read print out of the left eye but all else clear. It has improved a little so I am hoping to someday be able to read normal print out of that eye. Now when I read most of the "work" is done with my good eye.
I honestly believe that stress caused this to happen. My Mom went through so much and it took her over a year and a half to die in and out of hospitals, rehab, many times and then my home. She was coompletely bedridden with many health problems,and I was her sole caregiver until hospice came on and I had an aide come three times a week for bathing. It was the roughest thing I have ever experienced. She was not in pain, but mentally I sure was. Stress can cause so much so please take the time if you are caring for someone to take care of yourself. Even small breaks help, ten minutes here and there for breathing exercises, to go out in nature, etc. Whatever makes you happy no matter how little, it adds up.
Luckylu, I don't have any reading glasses with rhinestones but those might be fun too. I do have colorful ones and a pair of leopard print! Have to make this fun somehow!
So much fun to root for your home team
Darn if I didn't have to work late and miss it and could only check the score on ESPN on my iPhone
