Hi everyone,,,,  it's a  nice warm clear day today, a bit on the windy side.. a few clouds, but in the distance.


Please send some PT&P to Bunny for her dd who is in the hospital.. hoping she checks in real early to keep us   posted.  http://messageboards.ivillage.com/n/mb/message.asp?webtag=iv-ivsandbox&msg=7028.9&ctx=0


Miss Coffee is here with me today.  She is much better and back to her "bitey" self, but I can tell she is not 100% , sleeping alot, fry nose, drinking wayyy too much and panting and still on her antibiotics,,,  so I am keeping her indoors.  (need I say I am scared to death that she will eat something again). She spent the weekend with ds (I had a nice break after not worrying anymore on Sat) and he dropped her off early this morning.  I see where the infusion went (bare spot on her upper leg, no one else would notice it though) and they took the stitches out of her tummy so that is now flat.   Her tummy hair is starting to grow back.  We will play "beauty parlour later on (no bath just brushing and teeth).  As you imagine I am watching her like a hawk.


Other than that,  I've started going through the beta cassetes that dh brought back with him from home (these are the original and there are 6 old VHS tapes made of baby ds when he went to his babysitter after I went back to work,,,   from 6 months on,,  the ones that FIL/MIL "gave" us, they took back which is OK as we will go ahead and copy our own originals.  We are hoping they are better quality and we will take them to a different place to be copied and also will take just a few at a time so they don't mix them up. 


Hoping to have a manicure (cancelled my appointment last Friday).   We decided to go back home mid February as there is an international food show that ds & dh need to attend. They will fly  first and I stay here with Coffee from Tuesday through Saturday,, until ds gets back on Saturday  and then I planned to fly out on that Sunday but  we could not get the flight (thanks Lufthansa!) so I will fly on the Wednesday and dh is NOT real happy about it...as he will have been a whole week without me ,,, as I could not change the fact,  I just said "I'll be there when I get there so deal with it",, I'm getting spunky in my old age. It's a crack of dawn flight for me but I'll have no luggage just my purse and my book.   


Other than that,  this week I have no plans.


  What about you all?

I don't like that dragging the leg that Coffee's doing. What is that caused by I'm wondering? Our sweet Coffee Cake needs to get well, poor furbaby!


I'm still waiting to get well. Maybe next week it will happen.


Let's see..the outings I'll probably have to cancel this week will be....


John's birthday tomorrow. Was going to take him shopping for a few things he needs and then take him out to dinner at a nicer restaurant. That will all have to be postponed. :-(


Won't be able to make choir practice Wednesday night. :-(


I will make my mammogram appointment Wednesday morning for it's too hard to get another appointment and I'm already behind waiting for this one. Probably won't be able to work the church office that afternoon though and will probably have to cancel our monthly Neighborhood Dinner that evening too. :-(


Friday I'll order the party food if we will be able to have John's bday party on Saturday. Not counting on that though. :-(


Saturday we'll probably have to cancel the party again. :-(


Sunday I'll probably have to miss my church stuff again. :-(


Waaaaa..it's not that much fun being me these days!


Besides all of that, it's a grey gloomy nasty day at 20*F and icy rain is predicted.


Okay, 'nuf whining..things could always be worse and I am grateful that they're not!


Hope you all have a good week and get to do something fun!

Hi Rusty...I'll skip the weather report since Suzan already gave you a good laugh this morning;-)


I don't know how you walk in that frigid weather....I feel pretty sure I wouldn't...LOL


Keep warm, I wouldn't want you to freeze your "teeny tiny" buns off!

Thanks Fran, there are so many things we want to do, go to, experience, and this is holding us back!


John did get catch my cold, but not nearly as bad as I did, so he's pretty much over it by now. Thank you for asking.


I'm taking care, have no choice! I will do some laundry today though and hope it doesn't make tomorrow a worse day as that has been the pattern with this stuff! Grumble..groan!!!

Poor Coffee. . .is she better today?

No plans here. We got snow yesterday which has pretty much melted off. Still have some in our yard and it is cold, cold, cold! At least the sun is out.

My BIL's oldest girl gave birth to her first child on Saturday. Little boy, 6 lbs 12 oz. and they still haven't named him. Long story about the name. Just hope my BIL knows to keep his trap shut, but for some reason, I don't think he will. Will be interesting to watch.

Otherwise, I'm going to keep a low profile this week. Last week was hell on wheels and I really need to key down.
