Frazzled woman here. Wow it has been quiet!

The Hub has been on vacation since last weekend, and just went back today. Thank heavens!

We did have a couple interesting days, going to the Lilac Festival in Rochester, but they bloomed so early, not as many to see in full glory.

So much going on as usual.

Mary, Congratulations to you and your DS! Wow! I know how you feel, next year is my "baby" graduating...the last one. I am having issues with him just going to Prom in a couple weeks.

I have to share my very good surprise last night. I have a secret "son" Justin, whom as called me Mom since he was 9 years old. He was a neighbor boy, whom lost his mom to heart disease at a very early age. Anyway.....he is in the Army for six years now. He has already been to Iraq and is stationed in Germany now. Last night, there was a knock at our front door....and there was my Justin! I can't tell you the tears....and how happy I was to have my arms around that kid! He had spent over 18 hours on a plane....layovers and so much else....and seeing us was his second stop once he hit the ground! I can't wait to spend more time with him during the next two weeks.

The best part, was seeing Justin when he looked at Shane. He used to carry Shane all over the place, buy him legos and Power Rangers. And now Shane is about six to eight inches taller than Justin!

Tubby, Bev, and all needing prayers....I am sending them your way. I think of you all each day.

I have house full of "sickies" with nasty colds and allergies. Ready for a time out!
