Hi everyone!!

Glad you are back. Thankgoodness you are all safe after the breakin. This world is becoming stranger and stranger. It is getting to a point we are no longer safe even in our homes.

So fins, I have to ask this. Are you ready for Sundays game? I am predicting a win and I am sure you are also.

Welcome back fins! I had noticed not seeing any posts from you in awhile. Sorry to hear about your scary experience. I can't imagine coming face-to-face with someone who was breaking into my home. That would freak me out for years to come. I'm glad you're okay and hope they didn't manage to make off with anything.

Hi fins, glad to be talking with you. Most here missed you, me too. I read few days back that you were having some eating problems, so I thought you might be taking rest. Even Erz is also not here since the last 15 days or so. I am not sure what happened to her. I hope she is fine too and comes here once a while.

You seem to be involved in a lot of busy things now. Take care of your health too. That is the most important thing you need to take care of right now.

It will be good to see you catching up. :) Talk to you again..

lol, Tammy...I'm going to that game. I'm rooting for my second fave team, the Colts right now..I loved them through their rotten years, like I love my dolphins. Hey..The dolphins hold the record for the most consecutive years in the playoffs, and mathmatically, it's still possible...Oh well, hope the chicago fans don't kill me or get my authentic Dan Marino jersey bloody on Sunday, and we're gonna get the number one draft pick!!!!!!!

Fins - I am not a close friend, obviously, but I am glad that you're safe.

Now, my only other concern is - Are you still going to talk to Tammy after the Bears drop Miami like a bad habit Sunday? LOL!

HEY! I hope there are no hard feelings after the Bears kick major butt on the field. We have homefield advantage. Plus the Dolphins are use to warm weather and the Bears are use to the cold. But it if the Bears lose, I will hang my head in shame. :lol:

Its a possiblity. I don't see it happening, but we Bears fans have to be prepared.

Hi Fin,

I'm glad to see you back on the board. Yes, I noticed that you had been silent for awhile :-) I'm sorry to hear that someone broke into your house. That must have been very scary. I'm glad to hear that you and your family are safe though.

Someone breaking into the house is one of my worst fears. The second is a fire. I can't even imagine how terrified you must have been! I'm so glad that you and your family are okay.

Yes, I've missed seeing your posts and glad you're back.

You deserve some fun. Go to that game and have fun - take your mind off everything for awhile.

Remember..Any team, on any Sunday....

The cards almost beat the bears. That's all I'm gonna say.

The bears have a supremely easy schedule. And a weak division. They are not the colts, but they will make it far in the playoffs. Evereything that should've been wasn't this year. The Redskins looked like the best NFC team on paper this year, but they suck. St. Louis is not a joke, either...And I wouldn't rule out New Orleans or even..GASP...Minnesota.

It's only week 9, folks, and trust me, I know nearly every team's schedule by heart. You know, it's sick, but I make it a hobby to figure out qb's audibles and gestures. I also know that when Grossman gestures a slant and go (taps helmet) it usually fails..Hence the 10 qb rating a few weeks ago. It's a matter of time, and being the biggest fins fan in the world, I will not accept any team going undefeated, not even the colts!!

Sorry guys, I analize it waaaaaaayyyy too far, I am seriously gonna write a book someday, you'll see.

It seems you have all forgot to mention, in my opinion, the best team ever, New England Patriots. And finsfan we'll take care of making sure the Colts do not go undefeated on Sunday!

This football season is going to get interesting as it goes on.

hey Patsfan, is that you?

lol, I'm in a football pool, and when I was picking my games for the week, I hesitated over Sunday's late game. I ended up picking the Colts, just because I have to. Anyway, after this game, it's smoooooth sailing for the Colts, they will, again, have the best record in the NFL.

Anyway, I WANT the fins to lose the rest of their games. I don't know why no one gets that. I want Brady Quinn as my QB next year. If we don't win any more he will be ours for sure.

Michele-I have missed you like crazy! So sorry to hear about your break-in, glad that went ok. Hope your other deal is doing ok too,have been thinking about you. I haven't been around much either,mom,the cars broke down etc. Then my oldest son who is on disability, became suicidal Monday night,, so I have been dealing with him, hospitals,out-patient,etc. Hope to see you back,Michele and I hope to be back more regular too...KAren

I've missed you, Karen. You always have my thoughts and prayers. How are things going with the pharmacy mess, and the secretary that needs to be beaten?

lol-I am still waiting for the pharmacist to come up with a "fair" settlement, if he doesn't pretty soon,I'll contact him again. As far as the secretary- I really hope I don't see her anytime soon!! And she had the nerve to file for unemployment-after embezelling money from us! What a dip!...KAren

WOW!!! Well, since I have the dubious honor of working in HR, I can tell you that she won't get unemployment. She can appeal all day long, she won't get it. She's lucky she's not going to jail. I get to go to court occasionaly because idiots appeal their claims, it's pretty funny.

That shows how really stupid she is- of course, she was smart enough to figure how to take money for heaven-knows-how long!!...KAren

lol, how come you didn't press charges?

I would if it were up to me. It's up to my father-in-law, and I don't think he will. Makes me wonder why and what they had going :lol: :shock: Really, they are waiting until the audit is through and they see how much-also the IRS is going to be very interested in her soon!!!...KAren

yes, I imagine they will be very interested. That makes me so freakin mad that she stole. I had a good friend who worked with me..She was head of bookkeeping. She stole A LOT of money from petty cash. I won't say where I work, but you've heard of the company, and it's enormous. Petty cash is not what I consider petty!! I felt terrible, the company trusted her with that money. What a shame

Fins I am so glad you are doing better. I kind of guessed what was going on by your post to Ari. Same thing happened here last night someone tried to break in on my elderly neighbor. Her husband is in nursing home and I guess they think she has money. She has an alarm system. Thank God. Karen I dont see how you have a brain with everything going on. I hope the pharmicist pays good. Love you Guys KYSIDE38

Thank you Tania.

I feel that this forum would be incomplete without you, also. You always say the right things to make me feel better, and that means so much to me. You are a true friend.

Also..You are right about my dog being a guardian. When that man came into my house my big 100lb American bulldog stood right in front of me. That man didn't stick around very long.

Karen,

Good to see you. We miss your posting around here too. I might be filing for unemployment soon myself but not from any fault of my own. My company is terminating one of the office positions so one of us has to go. They haven't determined a severance package yet but we are supposed to hear something next week. I'm sorry to hear the secretary actually took money from your father in law's company. That is so sad but happens frequently these days. It sounds like you have a lot on your plate but I'm thinking of you often. Love ya :-)

Thanks so much Tania- you made my day!! And thanks Mishele and Kyside- I don't have a brain left! That's how I deal with this stuff!! My son is doing a little better, I think, still have to watch him,still suicidal. Got a call from the pharmacist today, he wants me to tell him a figure to settle with-don't know what to say to that. Told him I would get back to him. I want to say give me a million and we'll call it even :lol: ...Karen

OMG,
Fins, that is SOOOO SCARY!!! And the same thing happened to one of the nurses at work! She stopped home for a minute between patients (we are a homecare agency), saw she had been broken into and was on the phone with the office when she screamed "HE'S STILL HERE!!!!!! CALL 911!!!!" Needless to say, we called 911 ASAP and they caught the scumbag. Talk about having a heart attack at work!
I am so glad you're OK, what a terrible experience!

Take care!

OMGGGGGGGGGG YOU SO DID NOT TELL ME!! I can't believe someone broke into your house! Did they catch him? What a jerk! Let's go find HIS house and TP it. :-P

Take care of yourself! Call me if you need anything. Love ya.

Yeah, I'd like to catch the jerk. He was standing in my living room when I came out and stood right in his face. We stared at each other for like 3 minutes, then he flew out the door.

The weird thing is..I was shocked, not scared. He was more scared than I was. He thought no one was home. I just didn't understand what was going on. After the cops left was when I got scared. He won't be coming back, though.

Karen,

You are in my thoughts and prayers. Let me know if you need anything. I don't think a million dollars sounds unreasonable. LOL! Take care of yourself. I'll remind you like you remind me. I need that every so often. Fin, that is so weird and scarey! Dogs are a great asset to have. There is a reason I keep my male german shepherd in the house. He's very alert and attentive to different noises. I'm just glad that you are okay :-)

Tjhanks, Mioshele! We do need to remind each other!! I'm on pins and needles, the pharmacist is suppossed to call me any minute with his yes or no to our offer,pray that he accepts it, I don't think mom can go through trials, and not sure if she'll last that long..Karen

Oh Karen..I'm praying for the best for you. Keep your chin up, and take care of yourself.

Thanks, my friend! I'm a nervous wreck over this settlement offer,it is way more than fair for him, but who knows. My son is still suicidal, and I'm still taking him to extensive out-patien everyday,I need all the prayers I can get! Thanks,...Karen

Karen--I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you.

Michelle--Something similar happened to me that way. I had a kid in my car one night. I was taking in groceries, and when I was inside with the first load I got distracted. A little while later I went out to my car to get the rest and this kid (About 15-16 years old) was sitting in my drivers seat. I said, "What are you doing in my car?" He said, "What do you mean? This isn't your car." I said, "Well I paid the car payment last month, so I think it is!" We argued back and forth for like 10 mins. Finally I said, "GET OUT OF MY CAR!" I don't know if he thought it was actually his or someone else's car, or if he was going to steal it, but it freaked me out.

That's scary!! Thank goodness you didn't leave the keys in it.
