The bitter cold continues here but since Sears will be coming to service my washer/dryer (routine maintenance) sometime between Noon and 5PM I guess I will just find things to keep me busy indoors today.  Yesterday was the first time I noticed the cold really affecting my breathing so I need to slow down a bit.<br /><br />Joe &amp; Jim glad to hear the pacemaker checks went well.   Sorry you are facing the stress test on Friday Joey - sending prayers and good thoughts your way that all goes well.<br /><br />Shari - you really are a night-owl.    How late do you sleep when you are up so late?    I&#39;m starting my day when you are ending yours.<br /><br />Cheryl - how great that your cousin made contact with you after all these years.     I hope you get to have a wonderful reunion.<br /><br />Falina - Can&#39;t wait to see the dress you bought for DD&#39;s wedding.<br /><br />Deb &amp; Sue - bundle up if you really must go out.   What is happening with this crazy weather we are having.<br /><br />Martha - How is Lee doing?   Any relief from the meds being increased?    <br /><br />Ed - Enjoy your dinner out tonight after you pick up Roe.    Already 2 weeks done for her.    Love the picutre you posted of the Microsoft tech support team.  <br /><br />Shaunna - have a fun casino night.      <br /><br />Jackie - Jim is a courier for the bank.   Despite the electronic age there are still some things that have to be hand delivered between branches.   Of course that is what they are working on which will eventually eliminate his job but there are still supplies and packages that have to be hand delivered and outsourcing to a courier service right now is cost prohibitive.   Hope it stays that way for a while.  It&#39;s a great job though for retirees - Monday - Friday 8:45 - 4:00 and 2 hours on Saturday morning - then you have a week off.   They like you to stick to your work schedule but if something comes up and your partner will cover for you they don&#39;t really care who comes to work as long as someone does.   <br /><br />Speaking of Jim&#39;s job it time to get him up and moving so I&#39;ll be back later on to chat further.<br />Please be careful out there - this weather is really very dangerous.<br />
