i am sorry - dis friend is a frenemy - is that how u spell it?

a friend who is also an enemy

perm ink is always a bad idea to mark anything on a wall unless u are a contracter and was going to pull a wall or something- wouldnt a pencil suffice?

have u ever taken this person aside and say she has hurt ur feelings?

maybe she is clueless and doesnt even know her behavior is rude

i know she has also driven u and did many things for u

u can phrase it nicer - psychology today listed some points

that umbrella is a great idea

bc oct/nov would be great to start some leafy greens after most of the garden has been pulled up - they dont take long  to grow and there is still some warm weather and the greens doent need super hot temps

Thank you!  

I plan on talking to the doctor after his surgery.  I actually hope they admit him so they can keep an eye on him and assist him getting up.  I don't even know how he's going to be able to get up after he comes home.  That's my concern.

SMH at the comments your friend made to you  prehaps when you need help in the future don't  invite her.

Please don't feel guilty  if you don't include her as you don't need her negative comments.

I wouldn't give up on my ceiling fan in bedroom,or let that tree  grow in peonies so befor dark last night i cut most of it off..   Plus i cut 4 smaller ones or more  out of peonie shrub.

plus   I wrestled with some dead trees   branches in another part of my yard!

A couple were 2 thick for my branch trimmers  and couldn't cut them but i tried.

Today i'm stiff and sore..but   i didn't want to ask for help and wanted myself to try.

My neighbor who works on my old riding mower  got it started yesterday  but  no longer can some parts for it..it must be 30 years or older as my dh bought it new before he died.

After it quits running..i must decide to either replace it or hire someone else to mow for me?...as neighbor lady who mows for me . has had to use..her riding mower  to mow my yard   hers is also going bad.

lubs ya!

So sad about your riding mower.Difficult decision to purchase another one or  let someone provide service. We found someone that is very reasonable and they cut every 14 days.

@Yahooey : She is really a good person. She is currently dealing with a lot with the family. DH said he has noticed how she has changed but still believes she has a attitude of being above us and knows more . It's just different and difficult. I appreciate the enclosed article with a lot of great tips. In the past - the three of us had a lot of fun shopping and working on different projects. My friend that cleans my house is great hanging things and I will let her help more often. She will not accept extra pay but I know of several food items that she and her DH love and enjoy and will just start gifting them something special. 
Thank you for taking time to post the special link to much needed information.♥️🤗🍋🍋🍋🍋

Good Evening Y'all: I admit that I am a pain in the you know what plus a perfectionist. Honestly: DH asked if something was smeared on about four of the photo frames? I took them down and apart. I carefully wiped each photo and the front and back of the glass . They look much better. I should have waited because my Amazon package was delivered today after 4. Most of the frames were black with small gold trim but two of the 4x4 size frames were a gold color and just didn't blend with the other frames. The only thing that I could find with quick delivery was totally black frames. I replaced the frames and everything looks better. I was looking for a pencil where the eraser hadn't been used. But I noticed the eraser was more of a red color . My wall color is maybe light tan. I am afraid to try to erase the pen marks on the wall and make a bigger problem. My friend will be cleaning the house tomorrow. I will ask her what to do . Wondering since we used flat paint if she could use a clean wrag slightly damp and remove the spots. Always something. Thanks for letting me vent.🤗🤗♥️♥️

I've heard rubbing alcohol removes pen from walls.  I've never tried it, so I can't say if it works or not.  Maybe you can try that.
