Afternoon all&#33; Sorry I’ve been AWOL but I’ve had some kind of bug the last 2 days. Somewhat better but still not right. Somehow I have to get on a plane tomorrow morning to fly to NY for the wedding. Glad to hear we’re not alone with crazy non-speaking relatives.  My new appliances look great but I really haven’t used them much except the refrigerator. Toast doesn’t require much…..LOL&#33;<br /><br />Steve sorry to hear about your neighbors house. Glad to hear your boxer chased off the man at the fence. How scary for Lynda.<br /><br />Marylou have a great time with Colin and Paige this weekend.  Sorry to hear you have an ear infection. Hope you feel better soon.<br /><br /><br />Karla happy to hear the kids house is a go. I think my son is set to try an offer again next week. We’ll see.<br /> <br />AMC fans…….looks like we’ll be without Annie soon. They recently got a new writer so things should be shaking up even more.<br /><br />Carmen try to take some time for yourself when your home, work sounds way too stressful for you.<br /><br />Andrea as hard as the subject of death is it has to be discussed, never a pleasant arrangement. My parents went and did all their arrangements and just gave us the details.  It was an awkward discussion but will save us lots of headaches later. Glad you got through it. I sure do understand your thoughts on your siblings…….same here in our family.<br /><br />Shari sorry to hear your fibromyalgia is acting up again. Feel better&#33;<br /><br />Ed have a safe trip. Good thoughts and prayers got out to you and Roe.<br /><br />Joey it’s amazing the stuff they have now to keep kids out…..too bad the kids can open the stuff and we can’t like the medication lids from our prescriptions….LOL<br /><br />Welcome back Debbie&#33; Glad your trip ended on a good note.<br /><br />Well off to finish a few last minute details. Hope everyone has a safe weekend. I’ll be back Monday afternoon. Be well all.<br />
