Hi Everyone&#33;<br /><br />It&#39;s 17 degrees right now.  Seems like we&#39;re going backwards instead of forward with Spring.  LOL  Guess it&#39;s that way in a lot of areas.   Feeling sad for all the people being affected by the flooding in Fargo and Northwestern Minnesota. It&#39;s looking really bad this year. They do seem to have trouble with the Red River rising a lot. It has been cold, and snowing up there besides, so it&#39;s hard for them to be out in that and do the sand bagging and all.   Nothing much to report here...we went to dinner tonight after 5PM Mass with our friends and had a nice evening.<br /><br />Mary Lou...congrats to Heather on her license.  So glad TJ had a good night.  Yes...on our celebration of good news...I think we will wait till after Lent and go out and whoop it up.  April 14th is our 25th anniversary, so we will do some celebrating then, too.<br /><br />Jackie...yes on the Spinal Stenosis sucks&#33;  LOL  Big time, I say&#33;  So glad to hear you are feeling better.  I can&#39;t believe that you were lined up for surgery without even being asked.  I love your pictures&#33;  Glad you had a great time with family&#33;<br /><br />Andrea..congrats on the good news that you and Debbie will cruise together on the CC cruise&#33;  Glad you had a nice birthday&#33;  Marc and I and our youngest stayed at an old but well-known hotel when we were in Hot Springs after going through the Ozarks back in the &#39;80s.  We could walk out our room on a high floor and there was a pool and hot tub, and you were almost into the woods. We went climbing and walking around and had fun.  Can&#39;t remember the name of the hotel, though.<br /><br />Joey...saying a little prayer for you and David that all goes well&#33;<br /><br />Deb...congrats on booking the CC cruise.  You and Andrea will have a blast&#33;  Glad your DH and you had a nice birthday celebration.

Now you need a warm up to melt it all&#33;  <br /><br />Cheryl, GC)  So glad Wayne is doing better&#33;  That must have been so scary for him...and you.

Those tornadoes are so scary&#33;<br /><br />Jackie...YES...Spinal Stenosis, Sucks&#33;   Big time&#33;  LOL  I&#39;m so glad you are feeling better..you have been through so much&#33;  I love your pictures&#33;  So glad you had a nice time with family&#33;  <br /><br />Kevin...hope you&#39;re not snowed in&#33;<br /><br />Jen..sending hugs&#33;&#33;&#33;<br /><br />Falina..Welcome back&#33;...so glad all went well&#33;  Can&#39;t wait to see the pictures&#33;  Congrats on your winnings&#33;<br /><br />Hi to Jim, James, Ed, Steve, Robert, Carmen, and Hi to all our Cruise Crazies&#33;<br /><br />Have a great Sunday, everyone&#33;&#33;&#33;
