For the present, problem is being resolved....TAB is content...
Thanks to all who expressed concern....
Life is not a fairy tale....we all do not live happily ever after.... As I once said...there is no tooth fairy, easter bunny, or super heros...
Life must be lived so that one can find happiness and contentment in whatever form it presents itself...I refuse to go through life unhappy, and sad because I did not do what I knew I should have done and did not do it......
Damn the torpedoes .... full speed ahead...... Love ya all.............come visit.......
Of all the gin joints in all the world..........
Today, after 2 years of no contact with someone I have known for over 8 years, called out of the blue.
Asked me if I was OK..and how was I doing...wanted to know if it would be possible to grab a cup of coffee one morning or afternoon and just sit and talk like we used to do for hours on end.....
As I heard this voice on the phone, my voice quit working, my mind lost all ability to reason, and to think in any constructive manner....The last 2 years of pent up emotion raised through me like a blood clot heading for the brain...
What my soul was telling me to do, and my head was telling me to do were in direct opposition of each other.
As I sit here now, I remember every word that was spoken to me and the tone in which it was spoken. I can not tell you one thing that I said in response to this very unexpected but very needed contact.
So I have some serious things to consider tonight and tomorrow and beyond. My decisions will define my happiness and well being or lack thereof for the foreseeable future.
I know you can not help me, or offer advice, or console me.

Sinann...OK your taking the Obama approach...words..nice words but words..I need solutions...But I have learned that Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, poor, and stupid.
Hello TAB, you have been too quiet lately..Whatever is bothering you or whatever the decision you make is about, I feel in these ole bones that you will make the right decision. If whatever it is that has been on your mind for two years, and has now come forth, its been part of your thoughts too long to ignore. Take a deep breath, and let your heart do the talking or the walking..
Grandma Baba...Thank you for those kind words that I know are coming from your heart..If it were only that simple...No one ever said life is fair...But just so you may understand somewhat...she is married with children and has an extended family...I am married with children and have an extended family...I need not say more....You are able to fill in the rest of the story....but again thanks....many heartfelt thanks....
Glad to see you back. I believe in Easter Bunnies, Santa, tooth fairies, etc. I know because I make them real.
How right you are. Ron has an interesting post. I commented that if you look for bad stuff, you find it. And if you look for good, you find it. Especially within yourself. "I am the master of my fate. I am the captain of my soul."

Hello TAB..am so sorry for the confusion..Reba thought it would be a good idea if I answered the comments that came into her box concerning my leaving and the "talk box" so I went over to her comments while she was on the phone with me, and I answered back any comments directed to me there from her box, and than later on she also answered back to the comments also..sorry..my own grandma baba account I re-opened yesterday just to let people know I was really closing down, and to send out that goodby message..I thought most people would comment back in my box, but they all didn't..so that is where I confusion came in...She and I are not the same person..and again, I can see the confusion of me going over to her site to answer comments also..I have just opened up the blog on Blogspot this afternoon, my first post is there and the blog is open to anyone who wants to come and leave a message, and I will reply back to them or you, etcc..It is a calmer place to be for me. That is why I basicly am leaving the stream. Too much of too much is going on for my mind to want to know what is getting to know, if you know what I mean. So let me know here if you know what I am trying to say..ok?? my new blog address is-------------------------- babaknowsbest.blogspot.com I don't want to use Grandma Baba Says anymore..that is why I kept my Baba part and made it the new name, same person, same thoughts, just new blog name....

Hello TAB just checking to see if you are out of the box yet I have learned that if one has a goggle account they can get in to blogspot easier to leave comments on blogs..if one doesn't they just have to copy certain letters or numbers down to leave a comment.I have checked that anyone can leave a message on my blog,not just google people. hope you get thru ...
Many Blogstream members are there
already! Quotes from members: "It's like blog lite!" -- "I like the instant
gratification!" -- "Stop spectating, get in the game!"
If you have not joined in, you are really missing out!
That was a real teaser, TAB. You know that now everyone is waiting with bated breath.
How about a few old saws. No pain, no gain. If you can't stand the heat .... Nothing ventured...... Need any more?
Have a couple more drinks and mull it over.
or whatever the decision you make is about, I feel in these ole bones
that you will make the right decision. If whatever it is that has been
on your mind for two years, and has now come forth, its been part of
your thoughts too long to ignore. Take a deep breath, and let your
heart do the talking or the walking..

my leaving and the "talk box" so I went over to her comments while she
was on the phone with me, and I answered back any comments directed to
me there from her box, and than later on she also answered back to the comments also..sorry..my own grandma baba account I re-opened yesterday
just to let people know I was really closing down, and to send out that
goodby message..I thought most people would comment back in my box, but
they all didn't..so that is where I confusion came in...She and I are
not the same person..and again, I can see the confusion of me going over to her site to answer comments also..I have just opened up the
blog on Blogspot this afternoon, my first post is there and the blog
is open to anyone who wants to come and leave a message, and I will
reply back to them or you, etcc..It is a calmer place to be for me.
