Thanks all, for the hugs and kind words.  They mean a lot.  I know we all have trials and tribulations but sometimes, when it just keeps coming, you start feeling overwhelmed.  I want to enjoy my retirement, play my games, and live simply.

Fudge, my babies are silkyhuahua's, half silky terriers and half chihuahuas.  They're 18mos old and love to get into mischief and have their ears rubbed incessantly.  I'll try to find a current pic and add later.

Well, May was a month I wish I could just go back and have a re-do.  My oldest son has been living with me since 2 days before my mom died in Nov. 2014 due to having a seizure while driving, nobody hurt, went across 4 lanes of traffic and doesn't remember anything, but truck undrivable.  He's an alcoholic and I have tried to be there over the years to help him but I've finally reached my limit this month.  He was just about to complete an 8-month grant as a machining technician that he qualified for as the company he worked for closed down.  He got a certified letter from the school and I knew something had to be up but he said it was a certificate.  He didn't come home one aft. after school and subsequently, found out he had been picked up and was in jail for alcohol related offense.  Didn't bail him out and hoped they would send him to a correctional center (2nd offense) but nope, it was dismissed/withdrawn because apparently the public defender didn't show up.  His truck was impounded and neither his dad or I will spend any more money to help him.  Caught him a few days later with some liquor he bought and said, "Enough" as our agreement was for him to stay till he completed the course (which I found out he had been removed from on the 3rd) so had to tell him he had to leave.  I'm tired of taking care of everyone else for the last 6-1/2 yrs and he needs to figure things out on his own, now.  Going to start going back to An-Anon so I can learn to stay strong, for myself.

Needless to say, not much game playing through all of this.  Then, I woke up on the 22nd and my computer had a "boot mgr missing/CAD message on the monitor" so took to Geek Squad and found out my HD was bad.  Had to get a new one installed and wait a week to get an Operating System USB recovery stick from Dell and finally got it back Thursday.  Luckily, I have 3 externals which I had backed up some of my schedules (not recently), most all of my pics, and all my games.  Have been set

Sorry, meant to post this in Chat Lounge but not sure how to move it unless I delete and repost over there.

Fudge, I know nothing about a Firestick but how do you watch it for free?

I also agree about Scott and Jason ~ unfortunately, there are way too many of those kinds of guys in the real world!  I don't think Michelle played that good of a game to win a million dollars (on FB, the consensus was that the jury was a bunch of bitter losers) so no way were they gonna give it to the other two.
