Chris, it's that damned Mr. Biochemistry again!! i hope DH has a vat of coffee ready for you as soon as you get home. Good luck, kiddo. i am pretty sure that you will NEVER regret this surgery. and i promised knees, so knees it is.:becky: and i swear, if you overdo it after this, i'm coming east...

brrrrr. again. i never made it to the mall yesterday. "Nah...." won out. i might try something outside today, but no guarantees. why do i feel like all i want to do is go back to bed? probably has something to do with waking up at 4 a.m.-ish for too many days in a row! :rant: Chris. thinking...

Chris, i'll run away with you. not permanently, though. just until winter is over. jeez. what a way to start the day. i want your family to act on the fact that you are going into the hospital in a few days and you should be treated like gold. not just today, but EVERY day. but me yapping about...

well. there went my entire post. i'm on my Apple, and i have NO idea how to get it back. i'm too crabby this a.m. to begin again, so just gonna say "HI," and i hope there's no ice where you are. can't say that about here. also, Chris, make sure not to drink any wine from now until after your...

freezing here. but sunny. i've been feeding The Woodstove since 5 a.m. and will turn the job over to DH for the weekend now. that's the rule. i don't want to even LOoK at the d&;($/* thing over the weekend!! Chris, the jerk who invented fasting bloodword is Mr. Biochemistry! :-D GO GET HIM...

HILLS!!?? OK, not the Rockies here in PA, but surely not just HILLS?!!:

wazzamatter with you girls?? didn't you pay attention in Geography class!!?? (remember when there WAS geography class in school?) http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mid-Atlantic_states i do the same thing with less and fewer. i'm always yelling at the radio. i have never heard the "on accident"...

Trudy, thanks for the recipe! so, Prem is Spam? i also don't like green peppers at ALL, and i always use the red or orange ones. i vote for buying clothes in BOTH places! Shar, i had to laugh at your description of your aunt and uncle and their health talk. my mom used to have to listen to...

hiya from The Frozen Mid-Atlantic. GAAAH!!!! me and Mr. Woodstove. again. i was up at 4, so i stumbled over to the stove, because i knew there would still be some glowing coals in there, making it easier to start The Daily Fire. then i tried to fall asleep again. nope. :faint2: Chris, GREAT...

well. this has been an interesting morning! i was locked out of The O!! and just a few minutes ago, a Miraculous Healing occurred (nothing i did here...) and i got in. cyberspace is inexplicable to me. i do tend to blame stuff like this on the little men who live inside my computer. as good an...

an outrage. there is no other word for it. there can be NO reason for something like this. Je Suis Charlie.

Chris. good GRIEF!! and that's probably from the bad job the kiddo did with inserting the thing, right? hopefully that's not going to be a problem for you upcoming surgery. you should find out. i hope you get this resolved fast and safely. do everything you can to help yourself out with all...

Nancy, thanks for reminding me to do an update about my Package Saga. i found out a bit before Christmas that it had arrived overseas. so, i heaved a sigh of relief, though my son hadn't gotten it yet. THEN, a few days ago, i decided to check again to see what the holdup was. so i went onto the...

blerg.:faint2: 14 degrees, snowing and wrecks all over the place out there. i did just hear trom Hubby and DD, and they made it into work. this week is going to absolutely STINK!! :smow: on days like this i am SOOOO glad i don't have to go out. Chris, do you LIkE having DH go shopping with you...

i'm BAAAAACK!! sorry to cause some consternation with my absence. i decided to pretty much take a break from nearly all things cyber for the last week. now that Hubby is back to work, i can resume normal life. i'll never be able to address what everyone has written over the last week...

howdy. just me for a fast fly-by. i've been AWR. (Absent Without Reasons.) i am going through an uncommunicative sort of time. plus i haven't been doing much of anything, making much of anything or thinking much of anything. so BORRRRRR---ing! :yawn: sorry no personals today. i'll get back on my...

hiya! as you said, Chris: whew:faint2: no, i'm exaggerating, but it was a bit of a rush, a bit of craziness. ha. well, literal craziness. my bipolar nephew and his equally troubled wife did their best to drop bombs on the family Christmas celebration, but we deflected them all. he has chosen...

taking a break from the cleaning and sauerkraut to fly by and wish everyone a Merry Christmas!! i'm so thankful for you guys. you are all very special gifts! xxx:becky:

forgot the QOTD: shower. 100% of the time. hi, Shar. we have a ROMEO contingent around my old hometown. guys who graduated with me and the year before get together. i love that name! they call themselves that, too.

well. i just lost my entire post. great. well, let me try again. Chris, what i wrote to you in the lost post was that most days i believe that you don't let yourself realize how amazing you are. so, today, sit down with some of that wine and think about all the stuff you DID get done! i hope...
