Hi everyone&#33;&#33;<br /><br />We have a beautiful Spring day here today.  It&#39;s now 69 degrees, with sunshine&#33;  I did decide to stay in, though, so that I could catch up a bit on my posts and e-mails.  Marc was over helping his daughter with some electrical work, so it gave me a little time alone.  Glad to hear everyone feeling the earthquake is ok.  It always seems strange to hear of the Midwest having one, but I know about the New Madrid fault.  Marc and I had our 24th wedding anniversary last Monday.  We didn&#39;t even go out to dinner since we are on a diet program called &quot;Seattle Sutton.&quot;  It will be our second week starting Monday.  I did be sure to tell him that we have to celebrate another time, though.  LOL  We will be watching Isabelle for a couple of days next Monday and Tuesday while my daughter goes to Vegas for a work connference.  We will just have her during the day while DH works.  <br /><br />Jen...hope your asthma and reflux is doing better. Glad you had a nice time at the race track.  I used to love to go to the races.<br /><br />Gail...congrats on your cruise booking on the &quot;Solstice.&quot;  I&#39;ve never been a jealous person, but the &quot;Solstice... fab&#33; <img src="http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":biggrin:" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />  <img src="http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":biggrin:" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> <br /><br />Joey...glad all went well with David&#39;s interview.

The color sounds really pretty&#33;  You are sure right about the job the pictures are...sorry about your mom...good luck when you start on them...it is a lot of work, but also brings back great memories, and well worth it.<br /><br />Steve...sorry to hear about the layoff of your friend.  Too much of that going on today, for sure.  It&#39;s nice to hear that your job is secure.  Glad your boxer is doing well.

You have been way too busy.  Yes...the pictures sure put me down memory lane for awhile.  Lots of great memories, for sure.    So glad you found a nice dress for your friend.  Hope your allergies are better.<br /><br />Sue...so glad your blood test was good.  Hope that blood clot clears up.  I have battled with that myself.  Glad you realized the medication for Pappy was wrong before you gave it to him.<br /><br />Debbie...sounds like you went through what I did with all the pictures.  Sorry about your mom and dad, and brother.  I, also, made a wonderful photo collage for my mom&#39;s funeral.  I put pictures from all the times of her life, and with friends, and all of us kids and grandkids.  Sorry that you will have to have surgery for Plantar Fasciitis.  I have that, also.  I was lucky though, I had my feet wrapped, and had cortisone shots, and now wear Spencer orthotics, and I&#39;m doing great now.  So sorry about the screen and fear of a break-in.  That must leave you with a bad feeling, for sure.  We installed a good alarm system a few years back.  Makes me feel better when I&#39;m home alone, too.<br /><br />Elva...so nice to see you posting&#33; <br /><br /><br />Cheryl...love the job you did on your bedroom.  I think Scotty will love a &quot;Denver Broncos&quot; bedroom. Great idea&#33;  Sorry about your mom...we must have had about the same amount of pictures...I couldn&#39;t believe it...she had most of them all scattered alone in dresser drawers.  What a job&#33;  That&#39;s so nice that you still have your senior picture that you like.  I can&#39;t believe that you don&#39;t like most of your pictures, though...from the one you used to post...you are gorgeous.  So glad you&#39;re feeling better after this last radiation treatment.  Hugs&#33;<br /><br />Karla...so glad you had a nice anniversary dinner.  Hope all the wedding plans are going well.  Glad your MIL is doing well.  So nice that you had a nice time at the class reunion.  <br /><br />Debbie and Jerry...Welcome...I see you are from Tucson.  I was just there for the first time last month.  I just loved it.  My brother has a second home there in the mountain area.  It was sooo beautiful there.<br /><br />Keth and Rita...so glad you didn&#39;t have any damage from the earthquake.  Sorry to hear that you will need cataract surgery, Keith.  This getting older thing definitely has it&#39;s pros and cons.   <img src="http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":biggrin:" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />   Glad your tulips are ok.  I love tulips...especially yellow ones.<br /><br />Tonia...so glad your cough is better.  Sorry to hear about the problems at work.  Good luck with your new job search.  I&#39;m sooo sorry to hear about your niece...she is so young to go through something like this.  My thoughts and prayers will be with her.  Hugs&#33;<br /><br />Carmen...take care of that infection.  So glad you have some time to enjoy your summer place.
