Hi All:
We have had a busy weekend. Some old friends came to see us. We hadn't seen them in about three years. we had all had health problems that kept us from visiting in those in-between years. DH and friend went to Lakeland to the Sun and Fun Airshow on friday. And Roxanne and I did girl stuff. Late breakfast, and then lunch at a fun place, then shopping and finally home. Since yesterday was DH birthday, we all went our for dinner.
Before their visit, I had to really clean our guest room, more than usual, since friend Bill sometimes has shown an allergy to cats, and our Smokey thinks the guest room is her private place. So i had to really clean and wash all the bed linen, etc. and then when all was done keep the door closed so Smokey couldn't get in there. She was not a happy kitty.
Glenda: Interesting that your DIL has made contact with her birth mother. It is strange how different people react. One of my granddaughters is adopted, and she has known it right from early on as my DD made it a point to tell her the story of how they got her. She has never had any interest at all in finding her birth mother. But my other granddaughter was adopted by her mothers husband when she was very little, and then after she grew up she needed to find her birth father. She called him her biological sponsor. Once she made contact then she was satisfied. Hope your DH made out okay with his test. I talked my friend into getting one when she gets back home. She has never had a colonoscopy and after I told her aabout my experience, she decided that she better get one.
Peggy: I agree with you about leaving the time alone. It takes me a good week at least to get on the new time schedule. Nothing seems quite right and I sure do hate to lose that hour of regular sleep when we 'spring ahead'.
Trudy: I'm still looking for muffin recipes, but now that company is gone will get back to my search. Hope you and DH are feeling better.
Slavika: Loved the pictures of you. Magic Maria! Hope the regimen your David has to go through this time won't be so bad. At least he knows a bit more what to expect. Our friend that was just here is taking some sort of Chemo. He gets a shot once a month. He had prostate cancer, which was treated vigorously with seeding and radiation, but now they have found lesions on his spine. Hence the chemo.
Maria: I have continued to go with the short hair too, but I did get a perm and I told her I wanted it short and curly. And I have really liked it. Just put some gel in my hands rub it through my hair let it dry and then fluff if up a bit. So far I have had 3 haircuts and it still has plenty of curl. I suppose that I will need a new perm by the time the next appointment comes around. Sorry that your FIL death has caused the worst to come out in your SIL. It is too bad that stuff like that happens with some people. Hope things can soon get back to normal for you.
Right now I am beginning to plan the Christmas show for next year. This time the gal that directs the Kitchen Band and I will be doing our shows together. Lets everyone only have one night out instead of two. Things get so busy during the Christmas season. I think it is going to be a fun kind of show. Of course time will tell.
Hi Karen: HOpe things are looking up for you. Feeling better.
Gloria: Do all Catholic churches refuse to let non-Catholics receive communion? Or is it just that one has to be a member of a particular church?Being a Baptist, I have never run into that situation. Are you getting into spring now, tulips and daffodils. Love that paart of spring in the North.
Lily: Nice to hear from you and hope you will drop in when you have a minute or two.
Just looked at the clock and realize that it is time to go to bed. Still am not totally on Daylight Savings.
