Hi everyone&#33;<br /><br />It was a good night tonight...we went out to dinner at Buca Di Beppo and had some yummy chicken saltimbucca, garlic mashed potatoes, and antipasta salad, and the best tiramisu.  As Tonia would say...yummo&#33;   Our weather is above zero this week, so that&#39;s a good thing, but it is still in the 20s and 30s for highs.  We had around 2 inches of snow tonight.  Still waiting patiently for Spring, but my patience is wearing thin.  LOL<br /><br />Rose...thanks for the well wishes. I am getting better.  Happy Birthday to DD.  Bon Voyage...Hope you and Cynthia have a wonderful cruise&#33;<br /><br />Steve and Lynda...Bon Voyage&#33;  Have a wonderful cruise&#33;<br /><br />Mary Lou...found the right pillows and they fit in the shams really well.  The bed looks very modern now.  I did just get a new comforter last year but it was a cheapie just to keep warm.  Now I have a really nice one to look pretty, too.  Glad you enjoyed the Beach Boys&#33;  Love their music.  I met them in person back when I was still in High School and they were just getting started.  They were at Excelsior Amusement park here in MN.  We talked to them for awhile, and Mike Love went on some rides with one of my girl friends after their bandstand show.   Then they had a dance later on at the pavilion across the street.  They gave us a note to give to the door man at the back door and we got in right up front of the stage.  What a night...I danced until I got blisters, and it was so loud my ears rang for a week.  lol  So much fun&#33;&#33;&#33;  I&#39;ll never forget it.<br /><br />Carmen..M...thanks for the well wishes&#33;  My dream is of a world cruise, too. Hope we can both do it someday&#33;  Maybe we&#39;ll be on the same ship&#33;   <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 />Maria...hope you&#39;re feeling better.  Thanks for the great tip on the fabric stores.  Next time I will check them out.  I don&#39;t sew so I usually don&#39;t think of going there.  You sound like you&#39;re really talented.  Ken, too..that is so nice of him to make so many great things for family.<br /><br />Cheryl...hope you&#39;re feeling better.  The Fibro can really wipe us out some times.  I went for months one time with severe pain, fatigue and more.  Makes us really appreciate the good days, though.  Enjoy your nice weather days.<br /><br />Rat...loved your pictures of Crazie.  Glad you had a good cruise and you and family didn&#39;t get sick.<br /><br />Sue...hope Pappy is OK.  I know how much you love him.  Hugs&#33;<br /><br />Tonia...hope your hands are feeling better.  When I was working I had to wear a hand brace, too, for Carpal Tunnel problems.  No fun<br /><br />Jackie...Hugs&#33;<br /><br />Cheryl Sea...Welcome aboard&#33;&#33;&#33;<br /><br />Ed...hope you are able to get the medicine down in kitty&#33;  Good luck&#33;<br /><br /><br />Joey, Keith and Rita, Cheryl (GottaCruise), Jen, Howard, and ALL Cruise Crazies have a great day&#33;&#33;&#33;<br /><br />
