Sue,
What is the auto train?

DD,
I wish I were on the beach in one of your beautiful pictures soaking up some sun.

Hi Adele,
I think most of the pro teams do charity work. Some as individual players and some as a team effort. I’m glad they do that-especially when they do things like visiting children’s hospitals and such. Speaking of that we saw where Justin Timberlake was touring in some city and some kids from the Children’s hospital posted a video asking…[Read more]

Adele,
I have one word for you Mucinex for that chest congestion. Okay. will write more later. lol
Gail

Hi Sue,
Well we were lucky and ended up with only three or four inches. I swear the forecasters like to make things more dramatic and exaggerated just to get viewers or something. A lot of things were cancelled last night including the dance/fair at the school that Piper and Jenny were going to attend. We ended up not going over there last night…[Read more]

Adele,
I hope the shoulder is starting to get some relief and the cold is getting better. When it rains it pours sometimes.
I hope Tillie will continue to participate in the family activities.
Little Aizen is so cute in his new jacket. Looks like he has some room to grow.
That cat is really eyeing that cupcake. it was a pretty cupcake. The cat…[Read more]

Barbara,
I was just thinking that Neal is an air traffic controller so he must be working without pay. I will pray this stupid government shutdown ends soon. I don’t even want a wall and I certainly don’t want to pay taxes to build it. I don’t think a wall will keep out bad people-it’s just not that simple. I was afraid Brent might be affected…[Read more]

Sue,
I hope you don’t get too much snow to shovel. It’s supposed to start here this afternoon. I really don’t know how you manage-you must be super woman as I could not shovel snow. It scares me thinking that you have to go out and do that.
What is biofreeze/ Is it like aspercream or ben gay?
I will probably be rooting for the Chiefs as we have…[Read more]

DD,
I’m sorry that you lost your wallet. That always sucks as you have to cancel cards and watch accounts. it’s such a headache.
I hope you get the cute PT guy again. That will make going a bit more pleasant.
You sound like a big basketball fan. Did you see the Globetrotters yet. I thought you said you had tickets but I can’t remember when it…[Read more]

Hi Barbara,
We only had a couple inches of snow from the last storm but I think Colleen got quite a bit. They are predicting more for this weekend so we’ll see what we get out of this one.
I can see that maybe Jerry is a bit set in his ways. As to the medical marijuana-it’s not at all the same as recreational marijuana that he lectured the boys…[Read more]

Hi Barbara,
What good advice you gave Adele! It helps us all so much to have you to make suggestions concerning our medical care. Thank you so much.
I only wish there would be something new that could help Jerry. Living in constant pain is so draining and it effects all areas of your life. Some days it just makes you want to lay down and weep.…[Read more]

Hi Everyone,
DD, sorry I missed your birthday. Belated wishes. I hope that you get your wi-fi fixed soon so you can come back and join us.
Sue, sorry about the Eagles. Now you can sit on the sidelines with me.
Adele, congrats to the Pats. They are just a football machine right now.
I hope everything will work out well with Tillie coming back…[Read more]

Hi Adele,
I hope that you get lots of good information from every one who is working on Tillie’s case. I hope they can give you lots of tips to help you at home too. You know I look at it this way, if you have trouble yourself going up and down those steps it’s hard to expect a 92 year old woman to do it too. Maybe you could install one of those…[Read more]

Hi Adele,
I hope that you got to see Tillie and that she is doing well. Hopefully after this with the hospice people and whoever else will come in that you will have an easier time taking care of Tillie. Hopefully they will have prescribed something for the anxiety. I wonder if you can get her refills for her other meds while she is in there. that…[Read more]

Hi Colleen,
The other kids did play Charades and Flushing Frenzy with us. Before that Lachlan was playing on his tablet and the new playstation or xbox that they got for Christmas. It was supposed to be for all three kids but it seems like the boys always take that stuff over. I remember when Nintendo first came out how much Brent wanted one. They…[Read more]

Hi Colleen,
I do remember the Super Bowl shuffle. That was a very memorable team. I am thinking that somewhere in the house there is probably a VHS tape with the Super Bowl shuffle on it.
Well I had a busy day yesterday. Piper was basically in charge of my activities. First she did let me eat my breakfast though. I had brought over some raisin…[Read more]

Hi Sue,
Congratulations. It was a hard fought game. I told you I was uneasy about our kicker. He has missed too many during the season. Too bad the first one when they called time out didn’t count. lol I feel bad for the guy but he’s just not reliable. They played a good game and it was against the Super Bowl champs so they have nothing to be…[Read more]

Hi Adele,
I hope that you are feeling better and that Gary did not get sick.
Greg’s Mom had never written a check until after her husband died either. I find that to be totally amazing. I have had a check book since I was 18. Actually, I have always paid all the bills around here too so Greg would not know what to expect when if I was not…[Read more]

Hi Colleen,
I see this weekend that Hallmark has gone back to pretty much their regular programming. They really started the Christmas movies early this year. It seems like it was the beginning of October. I can wait until November. Besides, if I get the hankering to watch a Christmas movie we have quite a few on DVD that I can watch any time I…[Read more]

Barbara,
We get that black ice too where you don’t even know it’s there until you get on to it. It can be on sidewalks too-so you have to be careful even walking.
I think that’s so amazing when children go from not talking to talking. I just wish I could see what was inside their little brains. How all those meaningless sounds begin to make…[Read more]
