I know someone on here likes Luke Bryan:

He's friends with a cousin of mine. They went to college together. Nice guy from what I understand. He's from Leesburg, GA, not to far away.

Also, Buster Posey, the catcher for the SF Giants, and Phillip Phillips.

Leesburg is a tiny town, but they have many famous folks form there!

Hey guys,While we were away in Utah we had a house sitter named Julie,she is a local college student and a animal lover as well. I like her and we both trust her in our house,and when we got back she said everything went smoothly. Just a while ago I was going out to the mailbox and spoke to the neighbor and he said snowball got loose weds night and basically the whole block went out on a search mission for our beloved pooch! Me and brandi usually never leave him alone except the 8 hours of work which he is use to. But for days to be gone just upset him to the point he broke loose to go find his parents!! Anyways he came back about 5 am and everything is fine,but I just don't know why Julie did not tell us,I understand accidents happen and Brandi feels the same way. Well we are not going to mention it to her and meanwhile I am so glad Snowball came back and is safe and sound!!!

So glad Snowball came back....aww that was a close call xo

I went for the bone scan today. I had to go in at 10:30 to get the glow-in-the-dark shot. Then we left and did a little shopping and returned at 1:30 to do the scan. The technician asked me when my appointment with my breast doctor was, and I told him that after the doctor received their report, we would set up an appointment for him to tell me the results. He said he would have the results ready in five to ten minutes!!! So, I quickly called Dr. Grady and his nurse said they would fit me in TODAY and I would not have to make a return trip!!! The trip is 140 miles round trip. They were going to fax the results to him, but then they put them into an unsealed envelope for me to hand-carry. Of course I sneaked a peek and saw these words: "There is increased uptake about the shoulders, the cervical spine, hips, knees, and feet, but there are no definite focal abnormalities in the skeleton otherwise which would be suggestive of skeletal metastases. There is unusual soft tissue accumulation of tracer laterally below the right breast and medial to the lesser trochanters which is of doubtful clinical significance. The right kidney appears smaller than does the left." When I spoke with the doctor, he told me that the cancer pill I am taking could cause some pain; so I will check with my oncologist next week on that. PTL!!! Now, I am going to try to upload the pics we took yesterday! I cannot thank all of you enough for the prayers and positive thoughts. And, yes, Snowflake, I did feel uplifted by all of y'all's hands!!!

Thank God!

I'm glad that snowball came back!!!!! I'm guessing that she was just scared and didn't want to tell you but if the whole neighborhood helped in the search, then she should have figured out that they would tell you.

We are on our way to Chico for Hubby to get a new stereo installed for him to use the new iPod I got him for Christmas. Then we are going to Red Lobster for the lobsterfest. We have a $10 off coupon and I received three Red Lobster gift cards for Christmas. TTYWWR (Talk To You When We Return!)

Bring me back some biscuits!!!

Ha! My grandmother used to argue with my aunt who lived down the road about whose turn it was to use the phone! It had one long ring for my grandparents and two short rings for my aunt.
