The sun is shining today. Yeah!!! Kay, You can have all of our rain. This seems like the first day that we have seen the sun for ages. And it is supposed to rain for the next several days! My yard was flooded yesterday.

Renee, sorry to hear about your little one. My niece who is 2 years and 4 months goes to day care and seems to be constantly picking up some type of germ. I don't really cook that much, but love to watch Top Chef, Iron Chef, and I use to watch $40.00 a day all of the time. I have gotten a little tired of Rachel Ray.

Fin, thanks for your reply. I guess I am still at times trying to figure out how to be myself. I was use to being very independent and traveling alot on my own. I guess I am lucky that I got to visit several other countries prior to this "crap."

Sandy -- Pet health insurance? Does that really exist?

Hope everyone is having a good day. I ran errands this morning, wrote a few letters of recommendation this afternoon, and now it is time for a little nap.
