    Julz...TAKE ME WITH YOU!!!!  LOL  Hope you have fun sweetie...

    Faith...thank you for all the prayers for dd...I prayed for your trip and constantly keeping Saint and her family and you in mine.

    To all dustbunnies... We brought our daughter home last night!  She's moving with a walker...but still in much pain.  It's good to have her home...or her second home.  She's not allowed to go home untill the physical therapists (in house) give her the ok.  Was a lonnnnnnnnnng day yesterday with ups and downs....we didn't bring her home until after 9 p.m.  But, after rads today we're all gonna stay in our p.j's and try to get some much needed rest....

    I love you all...and think of you guys often and pray for you all the time.  I told my dh this a.m. that it'll be nice to get back to normal and he said, "What's normal?"  lol  Soooooooooo true.

    A little prayer if you have time - Mom was taken to the ER again with temp of 101.   She is 96 and the doctor said most "elderly" do not get a temperature.   I should get there Thursday mid day and this is not a trip I look forward to.   Gotta get papers and documents ready and oil changed on the car.   

    Sorry I will miss the meet up, Faith.  Give everyone a hug for me and have a blast.   Hugs, Nancy

    Prayers for your mom, Nancy.

    Still praying for Arnie and DD. Get some rest!

    Praying for Saint also and all who love her.

    It's chilly here this morning! I didn't want to get out of my warm bed! Apparently the cats didn't either because they were cuddled up with me. Ah well, gotta get busy. Thanksgiving is at my house and we leave on the cruise in 18 days. So much to do!!

    I am 6 weeks PFC today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I feel good.

    Hugs to all!

    Oh my...

    Shiny - I love the girls get away..have done that w/ dd but usually connected with a gymnastic meet but what a wonderful time we would have. It continues today, great "habit" to have. 

    Arnie - very very gentle hugs, good to hear dd is almost home now.

    Nancy - hoping all is ok with your mom, its a scary thing.

    Julz et al ...have a wonderful get together! Hugs all around Smile

    Faith - big breathe, don't forget to take some time just for you.

    Barbe - how's all up north?

    MaryRose - have a wonderful time on the cruise - hoping its some place not too hot, not too cold but just right.

    Hugs to everyone.

    Arnie - I think that's a good idea - you and DD in PJs - add hot chocolate and have a wonderful day.  Prayers she heals quickly and is soon out of pain.  Hugs.

    Julz - have a great time on oyour cruise!

    Faith - safe travels - prayers for Sain - any news?

    Nancy - also sending gentle hugs to your Mom and you.  Safe travels.

    Barbe - thanks for the support.  I guess "sisters" says it all!

    Mary - congratulations - cats never like to be up and about when they can stay in a warm bed.  It could be worse!

    Ok, don't hate me, but I discover that there is a Container Store not too far from me and am off to go exploring. I hear that they have all kinds of, well, containers and other organizing things. Maybe, just maybe I will a life altering item that will suddenly make the house organized and neat, and easy to maintain.  Well.....it could happen. A girl's gotta have her dreams...Wink

    Great blog Jane.We should all write novels like the housewife who wrote the Twilight series.No literacy skills just decided to write down the vivid dreams she was having. I believe most of us have interesting lives  we should be sharing.

    Am going to try to sleep tonight, no quite right, so yesterday was not a winner. Just before I set off for my sleep challange.. just wanted to pop in and send you all my best. What with all the difficult times some of our girils are having, My heart and mind is often " on the boards" or praying for someone here. Loads of very peachy vibes to you all daaaaaaaaaaaaaaalings.

    Arnie ((hugs)). Hope you and your DD managed to rest a this afternoon, goodness knows, you both sure need it. Hope that your DD's meds are doing the trick, and lessening the pain by now. Please God! Sure do think of you. wish I could have the little ones here for a playdate and tea with me and mine. Sending you my best.

    For all the bunnies connecting with other bunnies today, wow, so brill! Wish I was there.

    Nancy, so sorry about your mum, I hope she is feeling better by now. Sending prayers for the both of you.

    Faith, and Saint.. prayers on tap.

    Coonie, daaaaaaaaling, sounds like if you and Barbe and EWB and I got together, we'd have a blast shopping together. ((hug)) Love storage ewb

    I really don't feel sharp so let me off with the list, that is not a list, I can't seem to type, feeling a bit spinny.. best get some zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

    I just got off the phone w/Saint.

    Posted long ramble(s) on her two threads. Not good. So hard.

    Thank heaven above that we had our marathon brunch today. I'm not sure I could face tonight, had we not had such a great time of laughing and story telling and great company.

    I can not begin to tell you what today meant to me. I can not scratch the surface of what you collective bunnies mean to me.

    Julz gave me a parting hug -- from the collective rest of you -- and I thought I was going to lose it.

    Now I'm just letting the floodgates open.

    basket case, basket case, basket case

    Oh thank heavens. My dearest real life friend has just arrived/flown in from OH to spend the night in my palace. She will hug me in real life. She has her Masters in counseling...... she's going to have to earn her keep. LOL.

    She's knocking on the door.

    LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE

    Yeah, Coonie I saw the empty dessert plate.

    Am soooooooo jealous that I live a million miles away and cannot go and have cake with my friends.

    I WANT CAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    But made promise to DD that today I would try to lose some of the weight that BC gave me  and so I would look like a little brick waddling around.

    Mmmmmm    Maybe I could just eat cake for lunch instead ?????  Think I will start tomorrow what with Saint and Faiths difficult time, my dental procedure this morning, being jealous and just down right tired.    Looks like cake for lunch.    

    Ssssshhhhhhh don't tell the teen angel ( but I do know she does get on the computer and keep up on us girl)

    Big bunny hugs to all and with a squeeze for all that need a little extra

    Thanks for all the prayers and good wishes.  Oh Faith,how I missed your meet up, but my car is all road ready - my mechanic LOVES my car and would never let me go on this trip unless he checked every little thing.  He even topped off my washer fluid - it was down a hair and a half...   So, I got most done and had time to stop into the bridge group.  I bid and made a slam - total points for that round was 2650... High scorer of the day.   Several phone calls and I just go off the phone with sis in Colorado to bring her up to date.   And my friend Amy, with lung cancer,  has been hospitalized with brain mets. She is too unstable to start radiation, which they think will help.   

    The specialist of hugs, prayers and blessings for Saint.   Hugs and blessings and peace and love for ALL - I dare not start typing names or I will forget someone.    Nancy
