Randy



Posted by: Caritas

Hey look whos back.....
Welcome back.....uhhhh....oh yes.. Caritas
LOL

Where did you go?Out for a pack of smokes and forgot to come back.

Posted by: Caritas

I guess I got on my own nerve whining about poor me and failing marriage - and left ashamed. Everything is wonderful now! I took a job in a placement for troubled (REALLY troubled) kids, fell in love with it, never looked back. Compare to that Hell my kids...I mean my clients...have been thru since very early age - my problems appear to be so minor.

Well thats good news that you are enjoying the change you made.
So have you been writing to any RW?
Any trips planned to go to the FSU?

Randy



Posted by: Raspberry

I'm still here....and dealing with a lot of Canadians coming south of the border....nobody mentioned the holiday to me......

But, oddly enough, there was the 50th annual "Little People of America" convention here in Seattle......saw many "vertically challenged" people around visiting......and a lot of them had a really good sense of humor!!("Grumpy" was not one of them!)

Randy: Don't throw things away. Donate them to Salvation Army, GoodWill, something like that, get the receipt, and take the tax deduction. Well if you have time to do some thing like that.



Posted by: AJROOK

Still here Randy...made the move to Orillia, settled and working like crazy at the new job. I try to pop on when I can but I feel I am falling behind.
Still looking to the website GTR mentioned and so far it is pretty good. Wish I could say I was heading over there...but all in good time.

Great fireworks here last night!!!

I went through clothing yesterday,I guess I grew a little.Gave lots of clothing to a friend that could use them.He has MS and can't work any more,so that should help him out.

My sister popped by Saturday and said she would take some of my larger furniture to use until I come back someday.

Talked to my mom last night,she said she would take some things also.
This still will not be easy.

I will be having a yard sale...I hope to help out.Things that are left will go to good will.

Sounds like your doing alright and the move went smooth.
Someday when you find the right lady you will be heading over.

Oh by the way Rasp,I forgot to tell you we..(Canada) are having a holiday...LOL

Do you know where Friday Harbour is,it is close to Seattle.
I have an old friend there that owns a marina or a big boat repair business.
Havn't seen him since....the early 1980's.Once in a while I give him a call.

Randy

I'm still here...supporting our Canadian contingent.



Posted by: GoingToRussia

Hmmm ... I get the feeling Randy meant "Where is everyone from Canada"!

Don't sell the Nesting Dolls and vodka shot glasses in your yard sale!

I've heard of Friday Harbor, and have some idea of where it is. But i have never been there.

Also, it just dawned on me that you are in Timmins. One of my friends is planning to go over there, and I might tag along with him. Will let you know when I am in town.

Ya'know-there-missy . . .

I noticed that Pin Boy (in his 'pin boy in kiev for 7 weeks' thread) was complaining about stinky WC's... without a single comment from you !

Hmmmmm...

Did you see the photo posted by lester? The comments posted by PB?

True or not? What warnings do you have for us? Or is all this just fodder for lots of ominous giggling? (Wait until the guys see the crappers in Kiev! )

What say you, Chilly?

Randy--- keep in mind there is a delightful Canadian in Tver (you might know him). Richard (known as Riverwind here at RMP). PM me, and I can send e-mail addresses to you. He owns tverangels agency. Tver might be a long journey from Volgograd, but he has worked with the Canadian embassies in the region, and knows the ins and outs of visa problems with Russian authorities (through his own GREAT TRIALS of dealing with those problems)

BON VOYAGE! Happy travels... hope you stay on-line at RMP. All the best! ---Brad///

I wanted to respond to your honest mistake with something funny, but it was a very hard week, my mind's blank. So, plain and simple: Randy, I'm a Russian woman living in the US for over 6 years. Frankly, I have no reason to write any "RW".

Randy, I think she has the strength of a Clingon woman ... but then all RW do!!!

No offense meant Caritas. What brings you to the "States"?

LMAO...I can't stop laughing.
I am sorry for the mistake....
So are you writing any AM??

May I trade the strength of a Clingon woman for the logic of a Vulcan one?
Once upon a time my starship took a wrong turn, and I ended up in the "States". When I realized that this left feels right - I decided to stick around.

No sweat, it's not the end of the world...yet.
So, am I writing any AM? Sure, a half of my colleages are men, I send them e-mails every day. jk
Last time I've been to Russia 4 years ago...I can go another 4 years without any nervous breakdowns: I have no desire to go back.
I'm planning a trip to Peru instead.

What area of Russia do you come from?

Peru was my second choice of a place to move to,very beautiful from the photos and tv documents I have seen.
