    Jrebel, Chery and Start, thank you so much..

    Sometimes, those that did survive and came back, wonder why they were spared and others weren't. I know my uncle felt this way...

    He survived being shot down; he told me, your life doesn't flash in front of you. You lock on to the ones you love the most and you tell them how much you love them.

    My thoughts are with all those friends that I lost in Nam, especially this weekend.

    Wow dear, that was a long time.
    Jaime enjoyed the stories of her birth every birthday until she got into puberty. Especially when I told her dad to 'shut up and count'! When I was busy huffing and puffing and he was babbling on about something stupid. I also always told her that after she was in my arms for the first time, all the pain I went through was forgotten (well, almost)..
    Neither of us regret those few hours in a lifetime to receive such wonderful rewards afterwards, and I know you feel the same way.

    Congrats Mom!

    I think that's great. One of my brothers was born on Jan 1 and the other was always jealous of all the fireworks until he understood it was not for his brother...

    Right back at you start..

    Guess what (now this is going to make you envious), on Friday there will be a cleaning team of three coming to my place for three hours!
    I talked to the administrator of our Cancer Group which I sort of supervise, and she said that her office has talked about and approved this team and they will foot the bill since I am physically unable to do a lot of the housework lately. This just totally flabbergasted me. I get to 'delegate' WOW.. Poor Larry, he'll probably hide during this time (or run from the vacuum cleaner and be exhausted) and tell me off later when we are alone. He gets more jealous than a two legged man when I have company - and these people will not just be sitting and talking.

    What will be even more fun is watching my ex look out the window and notice the help and attention that I'm getting. He seems to have thought the I would be all alone and helpless without him... NOT! Oh, revenge is such fun. NaNaNaNaNa... I get to be Queen For A Day.. (well 3 hours).

    Gosh, I just noticed that we are over the half-way post mark on this thread already!

    Awww, you are so sweet! Colton says happy birthday to all of you, heehee... he doesn't understand that it isn't everyone's birthday... it is so cute, haha.

    Chery... you are so right... the pain diminished the second he was put on me and I saw his cute little face/fingers/toes/and all the rest ;) Congrats on getting a cleaning treatment! You must be so excited... if only someone would offer services around here, lol.

    Alty... Happy (early) Anniversary! Woo Hoo... here's to 13 more for the both of you :) :)


    Anyone do anything exciting today? Not us... worked this morning and did lots of cleaning there. I took Colton to see his great-gma and we all took a nice walk to the pond to see the ducks (I hope he remembers these times with her when he gets older). Off for the next two days, so maybe I will catch everyone then... big hugs to you all :)

    Thank Firmy. It is 3:19 AM here in Germany, what time do you have?
    Because of the time difference it is usually normal for me to be online at this time, but is it not 'late' for you? Are you OK? If you find it hard to go to sleep, I'll send you a Virtual Lullabye

    How have you been doing lately. I hope all is well and that the weather is comfy. It is a little too humid here so I don't go out much. I like dry heat, but here in Germany there is no such thing.

    Alexander came by with his mom shortly today and he actually called me OMA.. for the first time. They went to Legoland(sp) on the weekend and he just freaked out. He was so afraid of missing something and ran all the time, fell and scraped his cheek - I know kids will do that, but it just hurts me when I see bruises and scrapes on my poor baby. He let me kiss his cheek and that too was a first, specially for an almost two-year-old.

    I know that I rattle on sometimes, but I'm just so excited, as today was surprisingly eventful.

    Hope your's was too.

    Night,night.

    Chery, if we were closer in miles you house would always be clean, Maxy would be playing with Alex while I cook and bake for you! Well, on Tues, Wed, and Thursdays that is, cause the other days I work! I am so happy for you to be QUEEN for three hours! They are surly treating you good! Heehee, I bet "he" is jealous LMAO!
    You are the best OMA ever, I just know he knows it too! ;)
    Hugs and lots a love to you Chery!

    Firmy, I miss you!
    Rp, I need my dose of Sunshine, I will see you tomorrow! Glad he had a nice time, he is three now... ;););)
