What's on your plate.........
 

I'm in the kitchen, ratteling those pots and pans while watching an old interview (3-19-98) on C-Span2 with Molly Ivins who was at that time promoting her new book "You got to dance with them what brung you". and I am reminded of her integrity, her sense of humor and how much I will miss her. (she died recently of breast cancer)

Mr.Alffe took Cooper and went off on a "mission" so he said.

They are predicting blizzard conditions for tonight...3 more inches of snow with 40 mile an hr. winds. The wind right now is out of the west so it's hard for me to understand how it can be 6 degrees....what's it going to go down to if the wind changes and comes out of the north?

Ok...what is everyone up to?

((Alffe)) Well, as you already know, my day was at the hospital to see Oscar. For those who don't know, Oscar is in the hospital with pnuemonia and a double ear infection. He's a pretty sick little boy.

And it is soooo cold. I wish we were having your snow Alffe. At least the cold would be prettier.

Oh no, poor Granddoody!!!! Please send him healing hugs from all his Aunties here. Poor little baby. Dear Oscar, your Auntie Julie can sympathize with those double ear infections. I hate them too sweet baby. I hope you feel better and are home real soon dearie.

Off to church, it's up two degrees to -6! Will say a prayer for little doody..that he can soon go home.

Go Bears!

Hi Doody:

Thank you for this sweet picture of Daddy holding his little boy. Daddy's love just shines in this picture. Little boy looking so relaxed and secure in his Daddy's arms. Hope things are improving for this darling child. And hope both Mommy and Daddy feeling better. It is so hard when little ones are sick.

For little Doody. I hope he feels better and comes home soon. :hug:

Thanks everyone.

Today I'm off to the hospital again. Granddoody's oxygen level is still not high enough so as the day progresses we'll see. When he sleeps the oxygen level goes down to 80 and the doctor wants it at 90+ sleeping before she lets him go.

The only way he gets oxygen level that high while sleeping is if they put the oxygen mask on

Dogsitting Otto as well. Gotta get to Target and get him some bones so he'll quit chewing up everything else in sight.

Hope your day goes well and I just can't decide about the Colts or Bears.

Grandma and Granddoody.

aawww,poor lil baby.I will keep him in my prayers Doody.
I hope he starts to feelin better real soon!
Give him lots of hugs for us all....
:hug:

Oscar's oxygen level went up into the 90s last night during his sleep and he's coughing up stuff like crazy, so he's lungs seem to be on the mend. They let him go home from the hospital just before lunch.

Other than that, I dun't know nuthin.

Doody,
I'm really sorry to read that Granddoody has been in hospital. Yikes. Is this still from all that dreadful illness that your family had recently, Doody? Poor little boy. I hope he's feeling brighter today and those lungs clear up really well.

alffe, what was mr. alffe's mission? What did he and cooper bring back home for you? I love that saying. I'm on a mission LOL I use that a lot myself

very little on my plate today. *sigh
I don't know how some people do it honestly.
I've been waking up in so much pain lately that it's driving me crazy. I can understand getting some pain later in the day, but creaking and groaning at 5am is just ridiculous... there are things to be done.
Oh well, could be worse.

Glorious sunny day here so far. Thinking about stockpiling water for the future. It worries me that my daughter has such concerns about the future of the earth ... but that's a whole other story.
