Guess I haven't started a thread of my own in a while...but I'm here every day reading and responding.

Things have been pretty busy in my corner of the world. My brother flew up for 3 days a week ago. It was a whirlwind weekend...I didn't see a lot of him as he had a lot of area to cover while he was here but we did have some time to talk. Part of the reason he was here, in addition to meeting his new grandson, was to start holistic treatment for his recently diagnosed Hepatitis B & C. A very good friend of his has a wellness center in Lake Geneva, WI and is treating him. He also got together with some of his best friends from h.s. who he hadn't seen in over 40 years. (That's another long story.)

In addition to hanging with my brother, and my nephew and his family last weekend I attended the funeral for my girlfriend's s.o. (see prayer requests) and I also got together with some of my h.s. g.f.'s. By Monday I was wiped out!

Looks like we're FINALLY going to get a nice weekend up here...maybe even in the 80's on Sunday. I'm hoping to get some outside work done. My yard and flower beds are a shambles. I've been invited to my bff's house on Sun. for a BBQ but I turned it down. I really need to devote time to my yard.

I also have book club after church on Sunday. We've been reading "The Help" and will be discussing it. What a great book.

Work is still good. I'm always busy but not under any stress. I love my hours (11:30 am - 8:00 pm)...they're just perfect for me seeing as I hate getting up at the crack of dawn to an alarm clock. I'd much rather wake up naturally to birds chirping. We have a new gal in our group...her name is also Kathy...and she's a good addition/fit. A good worker and a go getter! We all seem to finally be working well together as a team...as it should be.

That's what's up around here...Sonny says "hi."

Hi Blu, good to "see" you! I'm so glad you were able to enjoy some of your brother's visit.

I guess you'll be seeing more of your brother if he will be getting treatment up your way.


It seems that your job is a perfect fit! Worth waiting for, I'd
