Hi and thank you all for the nice warm wishes !!!
As it turns out, I had a tree that was being cut down today and I ended up having to stay home and work after all - which is really best.
I have been trying to read on this board all day long but never had a chance to post until now. I am feeling better than yesterday - it is just a big ole head cold thing this time but you all know how something so little can take such a silly toll on us.
By the way CayoKay - interesting about my name and the noodle hair thing - where it comes from is a dog that I had for a few years and I adored her. She was a Snoddle dog (Schnauzer / Poodle) mix called Snoodles.
Thanks again, it is so nice to be able to whine a little and know that somebody out there cares !!!
