Oh, yum, Maria, thank you. Imagine baking when you are sick. You;re a better woman than I. Maybe your upset tummy came from the meds you are taking for your cold? I hope you feel much better today. Isn't Samson a sweetie, worrying about you? He's a good boy.

I'm already showered and dressed, and a load in the washer, after yesterdays sloth, I thought I should shape up a little today. When Dcat and I were on the phone, neither of us had gotten dressed!! It was so nice to chat with her, and Elaine. Taking advantage of my free long distance. I do occasionallly hear some odd beeps and toots over the line though, and wonder if the person I'm talking to hears them too. But free can't be beat. Sending my leftover minutes on the phone card I got at Sam's to my high school best friend, lliving up in Gordon, WI because she's living on a minimal income. Her DD lives in Canada so this will help her out.

Mini finally stood up to Sammi this morning and made him run! It was so funny. He must have gotten on her last nerve! LOL Souky doesn't take any sass from him, but Mini has been pretty passive and usually lets him jump all over her. Not today!

I have to tell you what I did yesterday. A friend of mine had contacted a rescue site here in Wisconsin and adopted a five year old siamese who is very slowly adapting to his new home. I checked the site yesterday out of curiousity, and they had a note that they had a 6 month old female seal point coming in soon. So who filled out an application and sent it in. Uh huh. Moi. LOL I'm thinking it would be good for Sammi to have a cat near his age to play with, and give the poor girls some peace. Don't know if I will get this little girl, but the wheels are turning. Told DH when he came home, and he just laughed. Then he took me out to eat at a cafe down the road. He is just a pushover.

Sarv, you need to have the Norton or some other junk virus filter on your computer. The first thing that happens when you get a new one is a ton of crap emailed to you. I don't know how they do it but it kind of comes with the territory. If you use Yahoo or AOL they have some virus protection built in, but nothing is absolute. And, consider that your brother helping you out does not necessarily mean you have to teen sit, consider it a repayment for last year's fun and games. It will be a quick and easy task for him to get you set up, unlike a week of child supervision.

I hope everyone is feeling much much better. So far I've escaped DH's cold, but I've been sneezing all morning. Probably because I haven't dusted all week!

Suzie, I'm sure your DS is much cheerier now that he's had food! I don't understand why they had him fast so long when the surgery was so late. I'd have been cranky too. Kids heal fast so it won't be long before he's out there trying to break something else! I can't believe my kids survived their childhood without any broken bones, they were always up in trees, or racing around with no regard for safety.

Dcat, after my colonoscopy they warned me not to eat greasy or rich food, so when DD brought me home we had Gnocchi with meat sauce!! LOL It wasn't greasy.......sure tasted good though after nothing but clear liquids and rotorooter.

Sun's out and it's warming up. I may need to wash my windows! Didn't notice how yucky they were during all those long gray Jan and Feb days but now I see little nose prints and haze, so I need to get off here and get out the Perfect Glass spritzer and do some clean up.

Remember how little Sammi was when we got him?

This was January 12 or so.
