Hi everyone...<br /><br />I can&#39;t believe I&#39;m still up typing this at 4:30 in the morning.  Such a bad habit staying up all night....LOL  It&#39;s now 9 degrees...it&#39;s way too cold for this time of the year.  I hope we have a break before it really gets cold.  It should warm up to 25 today and 35 on Saturday, though&#33;  LOL  Marc is doing well...thanks again for all the prayers and well wishes.  He is facing six weeks of a treatment that will use a live TB bacteria, so, I&#39;m a little concerned over that, but will check into it more.  He has been given explanations on how to handle it all and sterilize.  <br /><br />Mary Lou...he is doing very well...thanks for asking...he is in good spirits also.  We have a few concerns about the treatment, but, one day at a time... <img src="http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":biggrin:" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />   I&#39;m so sorry about your cousin&#39;s wife.  I will say some prayers for them.  That was so nice of the HA to give Ashleigh and TJ a trophy and Deb and Mike the portrait.  So cute about Ash.<br /><br />Chris...so sorry about the coming layoffs in December...seems we are all facing some rough times ahead.  <br /><br />Joey...so sorry about the adoption process.  Hope things will go better for you soon.<br /><br />Shaunna...Happy belated Birthday to Steve&#33;  Hope you both had a nice celebration.<br /><br />Ed...so glad all is coming together for Roe&#39;s treatment...even the insurance companies...hope you have a great cruise&#33;<br /><br />Falina...what great news that the insurance company will cover the tow bill.

Hope it warms up for you...when you&#39;re cold, just think of us here in MN at 9 degrees this morning.   <img src="http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":biggrin:" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />   Sorry about your sprinkler.<br /><br />Jackie...no dieting till after the 1st.  LOL  That&#39;s when I&#39;m starting anyway.  I&#39;m sure it would be helpful to try now, but it will be much harder with all the parties and things coming up this season.  Hope Gucci is feeling better.  Congrats on passing your exam&#33;  Enjoy planning for the new babies.  It&#39;s sooo fun&#33;<br /><br />Steve...hope you are feeling better&#33;<br /><br />Kevin...think I&#39;ll try your kind of diet&#33;  LOL<br /><br />Cheryl...hope all goes well with Greg&#39;s job.  Hope your computer problems are resolved soon.  Congrats to your son on quitting smoking&#33;  We are smoke free in MN, too, except for the Indian casinos.<br /><br />Keith.. Well said&#33;<br /><br />Karla...congrats on being a grandparent, and on your cruise&#33;<br /><br />Hi Jen, Carmen, Martha, Andrea and all Cruise Crazies&#33;<br /><br />Have a great day, everyone&#33;
