Afternoon all&#33; I&#39;m back from NY and our visit with Howie&#39;s mom and my new Great Nephew. Howie&#39;s mom looked pretty good, we both thought better than last time so that made him happy. My great nephew is so cute but spoiled already by everyone. It was nice to spend time with my sister, and nephew &amp; his wife. I really got to know his wife better and I really like her. We had an awful time getting home on Delta. We should have been home by 6 PM but got home at 10:30 last night. The plane had issues and we were sitting on the tarmac for about 40 minutes, followed by another hour at the gate to see if they could fix it. Then we were given another plane and had to sit and wait until that one was ready. It was a nightmare, with no food and only a bottle of water they gave us. Fortunately I had some of the NY goodies I was bringing home so we at least had some bread. This was just handled poorly and this is the last time I&#39;ll fly Delta.....seems like the have an awful lot of planes breaking down. <br />
<br />
My mom had her tests and now we wait. Please continue to pray for her. Hopefully we&#39;ll hear something in the next day or 2. It was very difficult to see my family and not be able to say anything.  Thank you all for your prayers, they are much appreciated since my cruise family and my DH are the only ones that know. <br />

Tonia I&#39;m so sorry about the scare with the anesthesia. That&#39;s always the reason I keep avoiding the carpel tunnel surgery, I don&#39;t do well with anesthesia. Glad to hear you OK now. Keep us posted and take those little pills&#33; LOL<br />
<br />
Maria that Zuccini Parm sounds great&#33; I never thought of doing that, only the traditional eggplant. May have to try it. Any tricks to it???<br />

Jackie, I&#39;m catching up on your journal at the same time I&#39;m reading the dock. I&#39;m loving all those wonderful scenery pictures, brings back so many wonderful memories. DH isn&#39;t an RV type but I&#39;d love to do what your doing. We always talk about spending a month in Alaska someday. I hope we get to do it.<br />

Jenn glad your enjoying the Red Hat ladies. Hope your day with mom was OK. Mom&#39;s are special and we love them but they drive us nuts&#33; LOL<br />
