You might be moving into your new home around then or thereabouts. How exciting!

Good morning MMC! Happy Friday Eve!! I got logged in here this morning & then all craziness ensued! It's not been overly busy at work just people coming & going!
Thanks again for all the thoughts & prayers for Mom. She still remains in the hospital - day #9. White blood count was up again this morning! DARN IT! Sure hope one of these days she gets a good report!! Hopefully sooner rather than later! My friend does reflexology & she wants to work on Mom tonight. My sis is going to run it by her at lunch....I'm not so sure my Mom will be on board, but we will see!
Hope you are all having a wonderful morning...and now it's almost lunch time/afternoon!!!!

They are usually hot and humid, 80-90 degrees Fahrenheit.

Yes, late summer or early Fall I think! We are excited!

Great to hear from you. Were your ears ringing?
That's an excellent idea for your friend to work on your Mom, hope she's on board.
Continued prayers for her, friend. Hope today is a much better day for her.

Good evening,

I took a day off from MMC yesterday, it was our getaway trip for my wife and I. We didn't bring our electronics with us. We went to the Mohegan Sun casino in Connecticut. We had a great time, had some great food, did some shopping, very little gambling. We had a great time, but we missed the boys. We enjoyed the Bobby's Burger Palace (a Bobby Flay restaurant) we went there for lunch yesterday and today, some of the best burgers we ever had. There was also a Carlo's Bakery (Cake Boss) there, we tried some very tasty baked goods. Buddy wasn't there, so no luck meeting him.
I am heading to bed, driving took a lot out of me.
I hope you all had a good day.

Goodnight, friends.

Glad you had such a fun day with your wife!!!

Good morning!

Chilly out there today. My project went very well yesterday ~ lots more to do yet and it might take a few months to finish, but at least I am off to a good start. Working on reports this morning and later I am making spaghetti sauce with beef bacon and broccoli. Yummy!

Have a safe and merry day!

Sounds delicious! Bet it smells great too! Enjoy!!!

Good Morning, friends~

Merry Friday Eve!

Update on Harlowe:
I Spoke to her vet yesterday, and she wants me to finish the antibiotics for her infection, wait a week to make sure it's cleared up and no further signs of it, and if all good-then re-introduce her 3 associated heart meds. Starting with the heart med for her enlarged heart. Just one at a time. Even though she is fairly confident that it was the infection making her so sick, she wants to be cautious. Then, after a week of doing okay with that, introduce the antibiotic associated with the dental, and then the lung meds. She just wants to make sure they're not interacting together for Har, either.
I asked her again about the size of them, and if she could have them cut even smaller, and she suggested buying a pill cutter at a pharmacy. I didn't know they were available to us, so hopefully that will help with getting her to take them better.
Harlowe had an okay day yesterday, stomach has been upset. But she isn't physically getting sick, thankfully. And is eating & drinking fine. Poor thing, you could hear her belly, it was so loud. Fingers crossed its a better day for her.

We have a weekend of beautiful weather coming up, and I'm looking forward to it!

Wishing you a cozy & blessed day!

Praying har does well taking the meds, and they do what they are supposed too with no side effects! xx All sounds like good news though. So happy she is eating. Hope the pills work as well for her as they did for Chico!
Have a good day snowflake!

Booooooooooo!

Good Thursday Morning MMC! It's Friday Eve and that is a good thing! I'm leaving work a couple of hours early today to go to the dentist. Actually I am leaving an hour earlier than I really have to. I'm gonna come home and get a few things done before going to the dentist. Biggest reason I'm leaving a little earlier than I have to is because I have so much vacation time I'm about to "cap". When I hit 150 hours of PTO I can not gain any more until I use some. I will not let that happen! I'm at 146+ right now so yeah I have to use an hour or two before I accrue again in 2 weeks. Then my 3 day weekends will start rolling in! We're almost through winter I feel...or at least I hope . Glad to hear Harlowe is doing a little better snowflake!
Everyone hang in there cause it's Thursday so after one more day today our favorite comes tomorrow!

What a terrible problem to have! Have a good day!

Good morning everyone ~
Just a quick hello, we will be attending my friends moms funeral this morning. I have to get everyone up and moving in a couple of minutes. I will try and pop back in later this afternoon.
I hope everyone is well and has a nice day!

Thinking of you! (((HUGS)))

Good morning everyone. Sorry I have been a way for a few days. The household has been passing around sickness. While I am feeling better, though my voice is still funky, my youngest has taken up the banner of illness. So, he is home from school for the second day. So, here I am as well. Luckily he does not feel too bad. He has a cough and a low grade fever, but it is enough that he cannot go to school. Our school has been devastated by illness for the last few weeks. I am sure the crazy weather does not help.
Anyway, I hope everyone has a great day. My son is a Christmas fanatic like the rest of us here, so we will probably watch a Christmas show or two today. Yesterday we watched a bunch of Christmas cartoons, Tom and Jerry, Bugs Bunny and stuff like that.

Hope everyone at your house is back to 100% soon!!! The weather we are supposed to have this weekend may not help with sickness! But it sure looks nice! Enjoy the Christmas shows. What a great way to spend a sick day!

Thank you so much snowflake!! My ears were ringing!
My sis is at the hospital now, so we'll see what she has to say. I think Mom is tired of people messing with her! But what do we have to lose??!!
Hope your day is going well!! (((Hugs)))) to you & Har!!!! Happy Friday Eve! Woo Hoo!

Wow we were only just talking about you!
I think it's a great idea about the refloxology and I hope your mum will be open to it! Prayers continue for your mum. I hope she turns a corner soon.

Enjoy lunch! It's dinner time here!

I can understand how she feels, at the same time I bet it would be very beneficial to her. Prayers.

Thanks, it's going well. I'm starving, can't wait for lunch.
Any suggestions on what I should eat?!
Forgot my lunch at home.

Mmmm, they sound delicious!! Save me some

I'm not sure, Adi has an appointment over the dinner hour so I will probably just snack on cheese & crackers. Sounds pretty lame, but I hate to cook for one. I better eat a big lunch!
