Ahh... Friday again.

Well, I'm doing a little better than I was last Friday! Still very tired and somewhat walloped by whatever knocked me out last week. I'm just trying to have coffee at regular intervals to stay awake and semi-focused. :D I'll get a handle on it yet! I do have the upcoming weekend to sleep in if I choose....

We had a "going away" luncheon for our secretary this week. Luckily a new one started this past Monday. It's sad to see her go. I've been here 12 years and I've seen many come and go. Sad...

As far as my sister, she has an appointment on Feb. 19 for another consultation with the ACS. Supposedly they will set her up with a surgery date at that point. She says they are just booked solid with people who need their help. (Says a lot more than I care to about our health care in this country.) I worry about her a lot. I'll be going to visit her and the rest of my family next month.

In other news, only son called last night. Even though he lives a mere 3 miles away, we haven't heard from him in more than a month. He seemed in good spirits. He wanted to go play poker with his dad. (They used to do that ALL the time together.) So I picked him up and off they went! At this point, I'm just glad to know he's alive and well and wanting to spend time with us. Don't know how long it will last, but with "grown" children, anything is good.

And now I'm off to make coffee!

Hope you have a wonderful weekend!! And if you have bad weather, be careful, be safe, and take care of yourselves!!

Yeah, I hate to say it but our health care system pretty much sucks! Unfortunately, I'm not sure that socialized medicine is the answer either. I just hope your sister gets the care she needs soon. I'm keeping her in my prayers!

Have a wonderful weekend, sweetie. And try to stay WARM! I heard it's supposed to warm up ... into the 50's! A virtual heat wave! WOO-HOO!

Hugs & Love!

p.s. Glad #1 son finally called. I know how hard it can be, but be patient. Eventually ... hopefully ... he will figure out that his parents really aren't the bad guys. That's when you can really enjoy each other.

Hi There!!!

Pray all is well with the family. Kids that are grown and gone sometimes forget us, sometimes they don't. He is scarce right now, but wait till he has his own family. They will come back in droves!!!!!! Good droves, though!! Love you...
