I know you can read this and cannot respond. I miss your wonderful humor, your upbeat responses, your frisky attitudes...I miss you, I miss you, I miss you....okay I know you get the picture.
When can you come back????!!!!!
I miss the laugh I almost always got when I would read a post from you....

Jai, As the Momma I can understand how much you miss our Karen. So I'm sure that if she were able to respond she would say something like:
"Thanks sweet thing. I'm always happy to put you in a better mood, you know it?
So, I'm scared of eggs and I ate them today. Are you afraid of certain foods, I know I am. I'm scared of eggs and tapioca pudding. But, I ate eggs today, against the advice of my belly and now I'm paying the price. I dislike the consistency of eggs and they are yellow. Never trust a food that's yellow. So, I ate eggs for lunch and soon after eating them, I realized that I dislike eggs and decided to take a chance. They were sorta runny and I couldn't tell if they were supposed to be that way, or if my mind was playing tricks on me. I decided to stop eating the eggs and now my belly hurts every time I think of the yellow, runny creatures. Are you afraid of certain foods? My boyfriend's afraid of milk, but he's lactose intolerant. I had a friend who was scared of onions. Why would I be scared of eggs? Do you know? Maybe just because they are yellow?"I hope I have captured her essence and you get some joy from this!
Love,
Toots

Well, my gosh toots, you could channel Karen Kay, I swear.
That was so kind of you to do that.
I'm beginning to look at eggs differently. I know a lot of people who have difficulty with eggs. What is that about? I have a hard time when I crack them open and the clear part is cloudy. I want it to be clear...so you can see through it. Also I hate seeing the little squiggle of blood....yuck. It reminds me that it could have been something other than an egg. I freak out when I think about eating that part of the egg. What about that umbilical cord...whoa....totally creeps me out...enough or I'm going to loose it. Who would have guessed there was so much to say about eggs.
Oh wait there's more: why is it when I hard boil eggs, I can't peel them....I never seem to be able to get the shell off without gouging the egg itself...do you know the secret of boiling an egg so when it's cold you can peel it? I will pay dearly for this knowledge. please I am desperate. thanks.
So sweet dreams Karen Kay, Tooter, Kid, Dinah...and all the babblers all over the land.
XOXOXO :- )
my nose is whistling.

Karen, I miss you too. I'm glad I found you in open today and yesterday. Not too long now. I'll look for you again.

> When can you come back????!!!!!
According to my calculations, we have approximately 64 hrs. and 1 minute (plus or minus a few seconds ;)) of the seemingly endless wait left.
Miss you, Karen...

Now.. No need to continue crying people, ok I'm back. And I must say thank you all for caring. It means so much to me. Thank you all, you've been (part) of my sanity these last few months. You'll just never know, because I won't tell!

Karen Kay! Sorry but you three lose and I win... Sorry it took so long to get back but I'm tryig to multitask and limit my posting (ha, like that's even working)....... So, here goes and I hope you all still feel special, as I am talking to you and that does make you special.
Falls: It's good to know I make you laugh. I make me laugh too. I laugh when I wake up and look at my hair. I laugh when my coffee machine isn't working, but it's not a good laugh. It's more of a hysterical, maniacal (is that a word? Well, it is now..) type of laugh because I just know if the coffee isn't brewing kk's having a very bad day. I laugh at my boyfriend, because when he calls me babby he looks like a muppet (I swear! He really does, and I'd say Gonzo if I had to choose one.). And I laugh when things go wrong, because what else can I do? Cry? Heck no! I'd never cry when things go wrong...
So, I laugh all the time. And I'm glad I'm not the only one laughing. But, I must say, my posts aren't meant to be funny or entertaining. They're very serious and deal with the innermost secrets and goings on in my life. So, what's so funny? Hmmm?Emmy: Thank you. But, I already knew the place just wasn't the same without me. Although, I do like to hear about how wonderful I am. So, if you ever feel the need to stroke my ego or jsut be honest, please don't hesitate to let me know. I'm sure no one else here tires of hearing about me. I know I certainly don't. Off topic for a second, let's hear about you... If Jai's in love, then I must be too, as Jai's a reliable source of character... So, go on now... Don't be shy....
And Jai: Never mind.
Ha, only kidding. How've you been? I haven't seen a new poem about me yet and I must say I'm rather disappointed. I suppose that means I must write one about you first, eh? I just can't think right now, so inspire me and I'm certain something will come. I actually think my meds are starting to kick in, as I'm not able to spell for my life (and yes, it's even worse than normal)... Oh well, I'm almost perfect. How're the birds doing? Keeping your car dirty, I hope.

Yesterday a tiny Ruffed Grouse crossed the road in front of our car. We stopped and watched it. He pulled up next to my side of the car. I started to talk to him and he paced back and forth. My partner was frantically trying to get his camera to work. The bird began to vocalize, a throaty coo and trill. I began to coo back. We were there with the bird for about 5 minutes. Then I got out of the car. He backed away, fanned out his tail a little and then started to vocalize again. I walked away from him and he ran after me. I stopped and he would almost stumble over his feet to stop right next to me. I walked....he ran....I stopped he stopped. I finally bent down and he got real close and started to peck the ground and strut. I was very attracted to this little wild thing. This went on for a while till I had to get him off the road....other cars where coming. He went into the bush but when we drove off he came back out on the road and was running after our car for about 50feet. We lost him on a curve in the road. Wild!

Oh, that is so cool! You made friends with a grouse! It sounds so magical. Thanks for sharing the story. That's such a great memory to put in your stash of special things.
I have this basket that has special do dads from my life in it (a little tiny book a friend made for me, some garnets I chunked out of a rock on a mountainside in Idaho, some sage from Utah, special pictures of special friends etc.).
I like to think that I have a mental one too, where I store moments like that one. I hope you do too!

KK - Your enthusiasm is beyond compare. Your support of your fellow Babblers shows your kind heart in every thoughtful post.
And of course, your astounding figure, famous smile, doe-like eyes, flawless mane, eye catching gaze....well, these are just the cherry on top, or the crunchie cheesie topping on the macaroni and cheese....or those onions on the green bean casserole.... I lost my train of thought.
Whatever.
Emmy
