Good Afternoon&#33;<br /><br />I&#39;m back from work and now I have a date with my closet.  <br /><br />James, hang in there&#33;  I had my gallbladder out a year ago this December and I do remember the gas pains for a few days afterwards.  Oh Lord it was awful.  I had DH getting me gas-x and it helped a little but it was pretty bad.  I think by day five it had subsided.  They don&#39;t really put that in the brochure and the pain can be awful but it will get better.<br /><br />Hi Keith&#33;  It was weird the game being on so late.  I watched a little before I finally went to bed.<br /><br />Hi MaryLou&#33;  I&#39;m so excited I can almost not stand it.  As Jackie would say...only five more sleeps before I leave.<br /><br />Cheryl, hope the birthday celebration is going good&#33;  Happy birthday to Gregory.<br /><br />Rose, cooking sounds so nice.  I can almost smell it.......<br /><br />Sue...hang in there.  Relaxation will come soon...<br /><br />Falina...glad you are feeling much better...good luck to the Seahawks&#33;<br /><br />Kevin...I must clean out my closet.  All I heard about with my neighbors being gone is how my kids (who used to dog sit years ago) looked in their closet and found &quot;toys.&quot;  I need to go through my closet because I think I have some &quot;tame toys&quot; that need to be thrown away.  I can&#39;t believe I&#39;m telling you all this.  I don&#39;t need the furry cuffs any more well quite simply because we (if we were that kind of people) have the real thing since DH is a peace officer.   I do not want my neighbor checking my closet looking for my cat and finding something.  Besides there may be things hidden (old clothes) and it could save me shopping more before the cruise.  Kind of like Christmas early you know.  I think we went through a bunny cuff stage in our mid thirties and I want to make sure that is all gone now.  We don&#39;t do anything like that any more.  Do I make myself clear&#33;  My kids are gone now so when we would get away we would have them watch things or board the pets.  This is the first time we have left our home available to friends and well, I have an image to maintain.<br /><br />Hi Ed... church is a fine place to be.  Must be the real Ed today.  Go for me too.  DH went yesterday by himself.  I was just too wiped out.<br /><br />Tonia... the card was sooo cute&#33;  Thanks&#33;&#33;&#33;<br /><br />Hi Deb...yep I agree... Ed&#39;s friends are totally welcome&#33;&#33;&#33;  Oh and your little storm sounded awesome. I miss storms... safe storms that is.<br /><br />Oh Jenn... you are always BRIGHT AND SUNNY&#33;  Happy Sunday.. hope you are feeling a little better&#33;<br /><br />Oh... DH is breathing down my shoulder wanting help bringing down the Thanksgiving decorations so gotta go.....<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
