Hi Everyone&#33;<br /><br />Had a great weekend.  We had our daughter and two youngest granddaughters over, Avery and Isabelle.  They are growing so fast...they are just adorable.  It was so nice to rock in the rocking chair and cuddle with Izzy.  Last night we went out to dinner at a local restaurant.  Today was a relaxing day.  Even had left over pot roast for dinner.  LOL  Was still good though.    This coming week should be a busy week.  Our weather has been warming up.  It&#39;s only 4:43 in the morning, and it&#39;s 30 degrees ABOVE zero.  Yea&#33;<br /><br />Saying prayers for our friends in Australia...and also PA<br /><br />Mary Lou...as you can see...I&#39;m not doing too well on the hours yet.  LOL  Or the diet.  LOL  So sorry to hear about the fires.  Hope they get them contained soon.  Can&#39;t believe that people set those on purpose.  <br /><br />Jen...so sorry about the troubles with your mom...hugs...so glad your DD is doing better.<br /><br />Ed...hope Roe can rest well and feel better soon.<br /><br />Joey...so glad David is feeling better.  Glad you survived the sump pump ordeal.  The fires in Australia...I have a friend there who says it is very, very bad. The temperatures were around 115 degrees with the wind, and they had power outages all over and many homes lost and many lives lost.  Some towns all but wiped out.  They had a fire close to them but it was contained.  <br /><br />Andrea...hope you and Rose feel better soon.<br /><br />Falina...so glad you are feeling better. Love the kittys..they are sooo cute.<br /><br />Cheryl...so glad you are sleeping better.  It&#39;s miraculous what a good nights sleep can do.  I think Scotty will love the Black Hills trip.  I have been twice and just love the area.<br /><br />Deb...Happy Anniversary&#33;  That was nice of DH to get you the book and make the CD.  I have the book &quot;Dewey&#39; and started reading it a while back but hadn&#39;t had time to get back to it.  It looks like it&#39;s a really good story.  I agree with you on the Grammys.<br /><br />Kevin...snowshoeing 10,000 feet up in the mountains with moonlight and sparkling snow sounds sooo wonderful. Especially since it wasn&#39;t too cold.   <img src="http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":biggrin:" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> <br /><br />Sue...glad you&#39;re feeling better and the weather has warmed up a bit.<br /><br />Jim...I&#39;ll have one of those diet donuts.  LOL<br /><br />Shaunna...hope you had fun at the casino.<br /><br />Martha...don&#39;t work too hard now.<br /><br />Jackie...hope the chiropracter can help you...so glad you had some time to spend with little Luc.  Feel better, soon&#33;<br /><br />James...hope Donna is feeling better.  Hope you had fun at the &quot;doggie brunch.&quot;<br /><br />Steve...hope things go well at work, and with the pension.  Too funny, what little Chase said.  On Christmas we sat across the aisle from a little boy in our church, and he looked at Marc and pointed and said &quot;Santa Claus.&quot;  LOL  Marc has an almost white beard.  LOL<br /><br />Rose...the tax season must be so frustrating...time for a cruise soon.  Glad your weather is warming up.<br /><br />Hope everyone has a great day&#33;&#33; The temperature has actually gone up 2 degrees since I typed this.
