Good morning all.  It was supposed to be cold with a rain/snow mix today but the sun is shining brightly - I don&#39;t mind when the forecasters are wrong when it turns out like this.  Have to take the dogs to the vet today.<br /><br />Mary Lou, we leave for Texas next Friday, the 17th, in the early afternoon.  We will arrive at Bev and Jud&#39;s the following afternoon.  I am so excited and have been busy packing things up.  We are taking the truck so Greg can trailer his motorcycle, so the things I normally pack in bags, have to go in plastic bins.  I will be attending a baby shower there in Texas and also one in Oklahome, so I have lots of baby clothes plus 2 handmade crocheted baby blankets to pack up.  I am taking boxes and gift wrap and will wrap everything when we arrive, to save on space.  I hope you get some warm weather soon&#33;&#33;&#33;<br /><br />Martha, hope you get to feeling better soon - I have allergies and know how miserable they can be.  I think you should have taken off your clothes before going into the hospital - who knows, you might have gotten a a raise&#33;&#33;&#33;<br /><br />Hello to Carmen, Jim, Kevin, Ed, Steve, Jackie, Rose, Sue, Deb, Andrea, Falina, Joey, Cheryl, James, and anyone else I missed.  I hope all of you have a wonderful day... <br /><br />
