Sandy & Jim - That is great. A whole new world seems to be opening up for you two and positively too. I am happy for you guys and hope that some different treatment options will help.

Frank - Thanks for the poem. I am so sorry you are getting ZAPPED while on the MS Indy 500. Sending you hugs and hoping you are feeling better today.

Fin - Has the coffee kicked in yet for you? LOL. You are going to need it to finish getting every thing ready. Your company comes Monday, right? At least hubby is home and together you can accomplish everything in no time.

(((Kay))) - That is such sad news. The effects of that storm have only begun to surface. I didn't even think about it until I read your post this morning how much and how many people that flooding will effect in the months to come. Keeping you all in my prayers.

Kay i am sorry for the effects of the storm, and what its doing to the economics, and hope this pain subsides quickly

everyone enjoy the day



peace

Hi all, hope everyone is having a great day. I just got back from dropping off specimens at the doctor. Gonna rest, yea, that's a good idea. ;-)

Kay, prayers being sent that your veggies do OK.

Kay, Hope you garden turns out okay.

Jenn, Hope you have a good visit with your family.

TK, If you daughter is the typical college student, she will change her major a few times.

We have had a few storms here today. I am hoping that they are not getting more rain in western Illlinois, Iowa, Missouri.

Having kind of a quiet day and I am getting bored with myself.One friend is in Ireland right now, one is visiting Ohio, and my other friend is busy with her family. So I do not have anyone to play with today. I need more friends. Do you all remember how easy it was to make friends when you were a kid? It seems so much harder the older you get. Plus I have felt some people pull away from me since last year. Guess I am feeling a bit lonely and missing family right now.

I am going to go read and try to pull myself out of this funky mood.

Hope you all are having a good weekend!

(((Barb))) - I hope you found a great book to read and were able to relax. It is hard some times. You also have your beading to do as well.

Thats a nice poem Frank. It looks like you like birds & when you said something about 'their calls of love' made me think of the 2 birds I saw once. I went out of town with my DH & I looked out the window (our beautiful view was a rooftop) & saw two sparrows, one ontop of the other And when we went camping on memorial day weekend, we put those tacky lights (sorta like Xmas lights) up on out awning....bright orange suns & yellow moons. I had to chuckle when a humingbird flew up to one of the suns thinking it was a flower. I guess he was ready to get some nice nectar.

Almost in tears at Walmart today...went out shopping with the four girls with my mom...
she showed me some sandels, like kindof casual but heels...RED I LOVE RED>...and I never doll up either...fell in love with them...but as humid as it was tonight...as I put them in the cart....then tried them on again..and realized ...if I had bought them...and humidity came up...I would risk breaking an ankle...due to balance issues..and such....

SO, then when my mom was like, why you putting them back....I didnt say much...by time we were at the checkout..I was teary eyed...silly yes about shoes...if you know me though..I am not a crazy shoe woman where whats another pair...I own maybe three pairs of shoes lol.....Just fell in love with them..but realized really my limitations are....to be smart .....and didnt get them....

Ok some of the tears were probably due to me trying on clothes..and my pudgy middle being so darn pudgy...I couldnt bear to buy anything...everything looked uggggggg....then got frustrated....

ok gotta run...gotta keep doing laundry and some more packing...leaving MOnday..and I work full day tomorrow...actually heading to bed really soon as even having trouble typeing...uggg...hugssss,sarah

A round of hugs for everyone.

Just taking a quick break before returning to the cleaning. Mostly done, but still have quite a bit to do.

Hubby leaves for his trip tonight and then my dad and stepmom will be here tomorrow. Gonna be interesting, LOL. We've been joking that this conference hubby is going to was timed on purpose. But he is a little disappointed he's gonna miss them but he's not that worried about me since I have some company while he's gone.

good morning all hope your saturday was a good day

Sarah am sorry about the shoes

fin glad you will have company

sandy rest rest restyou have one kid there let him help out mom today

peace

things got me to thinking my wife missed her mothers day in bed breakfast due to me being ill and in hospital, so I turned up the tunes on the lap top starting with we be jammin by bob marley to ventura highway by america then the CLASH with london calling then YES with wonderous stories and some blind faith, while i got mojo juice going some hashbrowns with gaarlic and onions and some hickory smoked maple flavored bacon drowned in pepper some eggs over rough lol opps and if folks around here would thaw a loaf of bread she would of had vanilla flavored french toast, as it is i am dead just doing that, this illness sucks so much

hope your breakfast was as enjoyable, I know kay can top it with all those exotic fruits and different breads they make


peace again
