    You are all toooooo kind.

    Thank you.

    It was fun to have my first fabulous dress ever -- even if it took me 52.75 years to get to wear it. Even my brother & sister were raving about it/my dress. So funny to have my "little sibs" oooooing & ahhhhing. Apparently they never suspected I had it in me.

    Ta da.

    Today is a day for recovery/down time/balance/restoration...... appreciation.

    Arnie I'm so happy for your progress. Very gentle hugs. I'm in a very gentle mood, so that will be easy to supply.

    (((((((((((((((Arnie)))))))))))))))

    Footie..... where are you? How are you??? Sending lemonade & hugs out west.

    Mum...... how is your recovery & rebuilding going. Please add another dozen (or hundred) more pics of Jamaica. It sooths my worn out body to think of your sights.

    Dream & Elaine: how are the two of you doing?? You know I send you good thoughts around the clock.

    Sharon, Coonie, Julz........... thanks for all of your prayers, well wishes, crossed fingers, and encouragement as we walked closer and closer to our "foot-bridge of happiness." I dare say, you kept me sane -- grounded, thru all of the whirlwind hoopla of the last six weeks. Thank you for holding me up. I get all choked up thinking about what's just unfolded.

    I feel so fortunate to have been able to participate in all the joy of the past weekend. What a blessing and honor. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Thank you heavenly angels. Thank you earthly angels, too.

    Morning. Mid-morning wave at the waves today.

    Zipping about quickly just to say howdy.

    Must get dressed before my conference call. LOL. Can't imagine how they would be able to see me sitting here in my bathrobe, but sure don't want to take a chance -- that technology has improved that far. Thank goodness it's not on Skype.

    xx00xx00xx00xx

    Julz: what's going on with your son??? Hugs, sweetie.

    Wow...that is a spectacular picture..just oozing with happiness, joy, how cool is this, love, family ...all the best things in life. Boy do we need more of this in the world.

    Faith- I expect that we are different when dressed differently, so it probably is a good thing to change out of your jammies and into your big girl clothes Wink

    Mum & Arnie- how is all going? Sending heaps and heaps of gentle hugs, warm healing light and love for quick and uneventful healing!

    Julz- miss you sweetie, how is everything in Juleeland?

    Sharon and Coonie- may I join you on that bench? feeling the need to be with sisters and friends, oscilating between giggles and quiet moments with people who "get it".

    I sure wish we could all meet up on a beach somewhere...........

    Anyone heard from Dream, Barbe,  Footie?

    PRAYERS NEEDED.

    My DD & SIL are taking WB, my three year old grandson straight to Children's Hospital at the urging of Urgent Care doc. 

    Unknown origin of pain. Doc said anything from viral somthing to appendix. 

    Prayers for him & them & me.

    It boils down that WB has a grandiose case of constipation.

    Not quite sorted out the poop-in-the-potty concept. 

    Prayers for kaka to abate & a deep breath all around. 

    Can you just imagine the angels sorting out that prayer request. 

    DREAM you're going to a BEACHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

    Goodnight Beachettes.....Just passing through on my way to bed.....

    ((((SHARON))))

    Faith....Wow what a Topsy Turvey day for you & the WB.....I am glad all is gonna get back to Normal.....MMMMM what is that! LOL!  Tummy troubles are no fun at All.....As I well know with my boys. Well Son #2  was feeling better & had to wait for the final test to take place because of the Appendectomy he had in the spring....but he put it off too long & now he is having tummy troubles in the same place as the surgery was. Had to make a trip to the ER....& another CT scan showed a small amount of fluid in the area that his appendix was.....blood tests are all good. So we are on to the Colon Scope in a few weeks. If that comes back negative.....I am not sure whats next. But Crohns is not easy to DX....it took my Oldest major bowel resection to DX his....even when he had all the tests done first! Pain Pills till we figure this all out! Also Son #2's Girl's Aunt was just DX with BC.....Another One......

    EWB.....As you read above.....Much on my Plate in Julee'sland! It's so good to see you here! A Beach would be even better!!!! 

    MUM.....I sure hope your feeling Better with each passing day!!!!! 

    Dreammmm......So glad you will get to dip your toes in the surf!!!!!

    Ok.....I gotta get! Nighty Nite Beachy Babes.....(((((((((((HUGS TO ALL))))))))))))

    Funny, funny.

    I have a nephew in Portugal on a two year teaching assignment & he's just emailed us all that he will be in Turkey on Thanksgiving.

    There were quite a few clever remarks to his announcement. LOL

    Great minds think alike, Sharon.

    What are the Canadian traditional side dishes?? You don't have anything to do with Pilgrims do you?? What is the root of your holiday?? Inquisitive minds want to know. (Could also read: Ignorant minds want to know. LOL)

    I just learned that one of my first pals here at the beach, our dear sister, nEEsie -- as I called her.... has lost her Dear Husband Fred to cancer.

    He had been on hospice at home & his battle is now over.

    Neesie was the first person here to make me laugh -- to the point of spewing liquids onto my computer screen. She has a sense of humor that is one of a kind. I know that she'll be missing her beachboy.

    (((((((((((((((((((((((Neesie))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
