Today is DS Dave&#39;s  41st birthday.  Could I possibly have a son that old.     I wish we lived closer so I could see him today.   HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAVE.  I owe you a special birthday dinner.<br /><br />Jim has an appointment at 8AM for the silly foot brace that we drove 1 1/2 hours for and then found out we needed to go to a place 5 minutes away.    <br /><br />Had a great visit with the girls yesterday and Heather&#39;s boyfriend is very nice.     I still have a bit of a problem over the age difference (9 years) although the funny part is that there is the same age difference between Debbie &amp; Mike.    Those 9 years didn&#39;t seem so big when Deb was 29 and Mike was 38 when they met though.   I guess it is because Heather is only 19.  Jim really gave Art the 3rd degree and he just fit right in and Ash &amp; TJ really liked him so I guess he passed the test all around.   <br /><br />Jenn - glad you had a nice day with your Aunt yesterday.    I hope you relaxed to a while.<br /><br />Jackie -it&#39;s  great that you saw the launch right from your front yard.    They say it is quite a spectacular sight and I hope to see it one day.<br /><br />Ed - now isn&#39;t it nice not to have to run out to the airport today?<br /><br />Robert - sounds like you have a lot of cruise planning to do to fill your retirement hours.     The Panama Canal cruise is my very favorite one and I would go again in a heartbeat.<br /><br />Martha - last day off for you.    Enjoy.<br /><br />Shari - sending prayers for good news from Marc&#39;s Dr.    The waiting is just terrible.<br /><br />Falina - sorry you have still more snow.    It seems this winter will never end.<br /><br />I need to get Jim up and moving.     After his appointment I think we will head up to BJ&#39;s (wholesale outlet store) and see if we can spend more than Steve spent last week.   I&#39;m sure we can break his total easily since I have to stock up for our company later this week.   <br /><br />Make today special - I&#39;ll be back later.
