YAY! Go you! Is this a record? Lol!

[debmommy22.livejournal.com]

Yep! lol! It's late here, not sure if I will read one tonight or not. Haven't been online much today, too busy. :)

Hey Jean!

Thanks! Are these all AU. stories @ http://jantolution.livejournal.com/

I was reading some of one of them that was really sweet and hot, but I kind of like the orginial, I think it's called cannon, TW. stories wrote about the TW tv shows?

Thank you for telling me about these. :)

I won't be around again today, unless I get on here late tonight.
:( Alex and I always see my mom and dad on Saturdays for dinner and to visit. My dad and Alex are buddies. I found out my dad is really is just a big kid! lol! He loves Alexander so much! :D You should see them playing together...they even have the same interests they both love to build.

I need to be getting ready, we are always so late because I tend to sleep in on Saturdays, then some housework, and playing on here which I shouldn't, and playing with Alex.

I've got about an hour to get Alex and I our showers...or is it Alex and "me"? I used to know all the grammar rules, made A's. I am just too lazy online sometimes...can't remember sh$#! lol!

No, they're not all AU, there are a lot of canon-based stories too, but they all have to at least end happily on jantolution - it's great if you wanted something a little less angst-laden (which I do sometimes). I must admit, I love AUs as much as I love canon stories (especially choccy_grl's AU series), but I know a lot of people prefer Torchwood canon. I just love J&I in anything, lol!

Hope you and Alex have a good time at your parents'. I think my nephew missed out a lot, because Dad was never one to play with his grandkids. He didn't really play much with me and my sister when we were kids. Alex is lucky to have such a strong bond with your dad! It's great that they have such a good time together!

Oh I am glad they all end happily. Oh I love happy endings and I really need them. I just like angst some of the time, but I really like the angsty ones that "do" end happily. Makes me cry...happily. :)

Yes it was a good night at my parent's home. They played together, Mom and I talked a lot. I miss seeing both of them. One night a week is just not enough. We are a very close family, espcially since I got older.

Can I ask a question, you don't have to answer. I will just know you don't want to say if you skip it on the next post. Have you ever been married? Just curious me, I know you live with your mum, but your don't talk about any other family. :)

[bk_forever]

Never married, no, but I have a long-term boyfriend, we just don't live together. He lives with his younger brother (well, his younger brother lives with him really), and he comes over at weekends and helps out some of the time, but right now he's tied up helping his niece renovate a house she bought, so I only see him one day a week at the moment. He's getting on a bit though, already over 50, lol! We've been sort of together for 30 years or so, but with my health problems it hasn't been easy. Still, he's stuck around, which means a lot!

[debmommy22.livejournal.com]

Oh I am glad he has stayed with you. A lot of men won't when their spouse or girlfriend has long term health problems. He is a good man that stays. :D

I am going through so much and Michael says he loves me all the time and would never leave me again, I would have to leave him. I never want that to happen. We have been through so much and are still together with a child even. He has paranoid Scizophrenia if I did not tell you on a private or public post. He was so messed up on drugs trying to escape the pain the antipyschotic was causing him. for I'd say 3 years though he only thinks, or admits it was one year. I know...I was there in misery trying to raise Alex mostly alone, help from my parents some.

Took Alex and saw them often just so I would not be so alone. He finally hit bottom and knew he would lose us if he didn't stop the drugs. He did, long story, but he is home now and determinded to be a better person, husband, and father. I can see it. He is so happy now, so sorry for the hell he put us through and he hates the life he lived. Prays to God a lot thanking him for bringing him home, and for me not leaving him, because I was close to it and it was killing me. Alex needed his father too.

You two have been through so much, but you've made it through and stuck together and I really admire both of you for that. I can't imagine how hard it must have been. It's good that your parents are so supportive too, that must have helped.

I am lucky that Collin has stuck with me, though we probably wouldn't have lasted so long if we lived together. I need my space and just like my own company at times. At my age, I'm too old now to adjust to living with someone. Plus, I have more bad days than good ones, and then I just need to be left alone so I can focus on something to take my mind off how rotton I feel. I really don't want company when I feel rough, because I just can't relax.

Well just lost my whole reply! I clicked "post comment" and it said internet explorer was down, hit the back button and it was gone!

It was too much to type again. I try to remember to copy before I post stuff sometimes so if I lose it, I can paste it back. It seems to happen when I write a comment, leave because I am being called, come back and finish it, and it screws up. It must need refreshing. Well I will try to remember from now on....

Maybe I can try again later. Too tired to re-type all that crap again.

Mostly I was going to say, I understand need space too.

[bk_forever]

Oh, that happens to me a lot too. It's so infuriating! I try to remember to copy before posting, just in case, but I often forget. I really must try to make a habit of it. I get so mad when I have to re-type something and try to remember what I wrote, and often I just can't be bothered to do it all again. Technology is great, except when it mucks things up!

[debmommy22.livejournal.com]

OH, I don't think it says internet explorer is down...in fact not sure that makes scene? Not sure what it said. I think it is LJ now. I hate this! I used to write books and it always posted.

[bk_forever]

LJ was way better before they started 'improving' things!

[debmommy22.livejournal.com]

Are they improving things?...well I know they talk about it, too high teck for me to read. They need to improve security so they will stop people from attacking the site all the time which keeps us from getting on, but yeah I do think it is something with them. :)

I wrote making "scene"...guess you know I meant "sense"

I'm so tired of forgetting how to even spell "small" words sometimes.

GEEZ!

[bk_forever]

The problem with LJ is that they SAY they're making improvements, but all they're managing to do is stop things working that were working perfectly before. They should probably test all so-called improvements thoroughly before putting them in place to make sure they actually work.

I know nothing about anything technical. I just know, if something works perfectly, it's silly to fiddle with it so that it doesn't work right anymore. I would have thought that was common sense, but the people running LJ must have peculiar ideas about what LJ users want.

Don't worry about your spelling, I can easily work out what you mean!
