Break Time!~!~!~!~!~!~!

Just sitting here at work, giving my eyeballs a break. I do this occasionally throughout the day. Just don't always have time to respond to anything, but wanted to let y'all know that I do lurk often and keep up as much as I can.

Okay, several of you asked about Gmary and Pcola. She and Lee (brother-in-law) went back last week and little sis stayed behind w/ the baby. Gmary is staying with a neighbor for the time being. I do not know what the status is on repairing her house, time frame or anything. At least she has insurance.

As for mom's house, well.....the floors were hard wood on a crawl-space slab (whatever you call that, the house is over 50 yrs old) so they are warped. The heating duct is about to come through the ceiling, the house is full of mold spores, the walls are falling apart, etc...basically it is uninhabitable so FEMA was contacted (since that house was not insured) and Lee has rented an apartment in a neighboring town until the loan goes through and they can find some honest & reliable contractors to do the repairs. No time frame on that either. Anyway Lauren and the baby will be going back on Saturday, and I can tell she is anxious to get home.

In other news, sweetfeets made the all A-B Honor Roll ~~~yippeeeeeee~~. Not much has changed with the situation with his dad ~~sigh~~. Little brother may be released in December ~~ummmm, don't know what my emotion is on that one~~, and my mom is not speaking to me right now b/c I made the mistake of mentioning a small, hard lump in the lower part of my right breast, figuring it's a cyst since breast cancer does not run in our family. I will go to the doctor and have it looked at when I have time, but my argument is that I was just at the OBGYN two months ago for my annual pap, and they had regular bloodwork drawn and everything, NOTHING out of the norm appeared. So, I am convinced that it's a cyst and nothing more. Mothers.....~~arrrrggggghhhhh~~!!!!!

Well, that's it for now. Hope everyone is doing well. ps congrats Robin!

Sadie, I agree with Pam! I am a little nervous about my previous advice. It's true what I said, but if something is wrong I would feel just terrible that you waited! Listen to Pam, SHE's the nurse, I'm just a know it all from reading too much! Hugs, Sandra

Hi Sadie - I'm sure I'm just echoing everyone else here, but...


Good news on the house repairs and money, hopefully they can get fixed up and settled soon.


CONGRATS to sweetfeets - that is SO great :)


((((((((((((Hugs)))))))))))) on the situation with your brother, I know its a tough one.


Please get to the doctor soon. You're *probably* right about the cyst, but much better to be safe than sorry. (((((((hugs))))))


I can't wait to meet you and meet n greet!!!


Hugs!
