Hello all.  I got to piddling around and finally ended up going up to bed between 6:00-6:30 a.m.  I slept until about 10:00. <br /><br />Robert, it was so good to see you popping in - I am still keeping you in my prayers  That kind of work has to be so mentally stressful.  I appreciate all that you and all of our other officers do to protect us.  <br /><br />I love my husband dearly, but I cannot tell you how nice it was to wake up and have the whole house to myself.  Greg called me a bit ago - he isn&#39;t nearly as excited as I am&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;<br /><br />Falina, sorry about your laptop problems.  As you know, when I had to resort to the desktop, I was rarely on.  I enjoy sitting in my recliner in front of the tv, and doing my online chatting.  Hope they get you fixed up quickly.<br /><br />Joey - now you can go back to sleeping in the middle of the bed&#33;&#33;&#33;<br /><br />Andrea, are the girls getting really excited?  Have you showed them pics of the ship and the places they will be going?  Hope you all have a wonderful cruise...<br /><br />Ed, how wonderful that Roe has met someone already.  Maybe, if she feels up to it during the week, she and her new friend can hook up for dinner sometime.<br /><br />Martha, do you live anywhere near the Outer Banks?  We have never been there, but it has been on our &quot;list&quot; for quite some time.  Some of our friends rent a beach house there every August and the pics she has sent are just gorgeous.<br /><br />Sue, glad you are feeling better, but you still need to take it easy girl&#33;&#33;&#33;<br /><br />Mary Lou, did you accomplish much before Jim got up?<br /><br />Deb, you said there was snow forecast for tomorrow - are you as sick of winter as Falina, Jenn and I are???<br /><br />Well, guess I had best get my housework finished up - be back later...
