So my horoscope today says-

Don't be afraid of stirring up some mischief if you need the mental stimulation. You'll accomplish more if you're having fun.

LOL!!!!! So I'm off to cause some trouble!!!!!!

Dawg, they started off saying it was a boy...and then they changed their minds....

Sept. 23. Monday we hit the 23 week mark. Sorry if this is too much info, but I think it's cool.....

23 weeks ago Monday was Christmas Eve....

Wow...23 weeks...Believe me it seems like brandi was pregnant for 2 straight years so I even have the weeks memorized. I think around 26 weeks on to the end the real fun starts...you know aching back swollen legs and feet. Her moods could change super fast...which mean one minute you are her hero then the next minute she thinks you are Satan and will never let you touch her again...Personally I liked weeks 12 through 23 or 24...you know the baby starts moving and you can even feel it..brandi all of a sudden got a lot of energy and felt amazing and of course the morning sickness ended luckily around week 10. Anyhow good luck to you and your wife...this next few months will be amazing and you will never be the same after you hear the baby cry for the first time!

I try!!!!!!:lol:

Your in Ha ?Have a great time..it is beautiful there and they even have snow up in the mts!!!

Rain is in the forecast every day, but being here is mostly about seeing Gloria, so we don't mind. We make our own sunshine. They're renovating the hotel, so we don't have our usual view, but it's still better than going to the office!

Getting ready for the day, then we'll have breakfast at our favorite local place and pick up the rental car. I'm always too fried to drive the night we arrive.

Hilo "sunshine" ...

It's weird because it rained every day we were there too! I guess that Island just gets a lot of rain! We stayed at a hotel on the beach that had huge balconies.it was gloomy like I said but one day it was just cloudy so we sat out on the balcony and had wine and saw whales swimming very close to the shore...it was just beautiful! Have a great time and try to relax...you will be back in the office soon enough!

Made it to Hilo---we paid for wi-fi access while we're here, so I have to get my money's worth. My body doesn't know what time zone it's in. Off to bed soon. It's 2:45am back home.

I'm glad you made it safe - enjoy! Give my best to Gloria!

 

[Meceka]

good morning!

my view as I talk to you this morning!

We are off to the teddy bear factory and then to the Morgan horse museum today. After that will take in some of the jazz festival in downtown Burlington.

Have a great day everyone!

Sounds like a fun day, esp. the jazz festival - enjoy!

Hi all, please keep my friend Joanna in your thoughts & prayers. Her little pup, Lilly, was just ran over. She died instantly.
My heart breaks for Jo.
This is Harlowe's best buddy's Mom from Las Vegas.

Thanks.

Oh, how sad - prayers on the way for Joanna and Lilly's friends and family!

Hope you can catch up on sleep tonight!

Glad you've had a break from the storms. And thank God they sprayed for mosquitoes.

Harlowe is doing better. She's very uneasy with them, but not terrified any longer. She does follow us around the house, and want to be near us, but she isn't hiding or shaking, so I'm glad about that. Thanks for asking.

How is Mouse? Still praying for her, and sending extra hugs.

Nice finds on the two Christmas books!

I'm glad Harlowe is doing better with the storms! Mouse has her ups and downs. Last night/this morning was an up - she woke me up at 4:30 to let me know she was hunting. It seems to me that she is maintaining, which is good, but I won't know for sure until the vet sees her and that is at least two weeks away. Thank you for the prayers - most definitely needed for her! {{{HUGS}}}

Good afternoon, MMC!

Good afternoon, friends! How are you all doing? I am well. Just sitting on the balcony, as DS is taking a nap. DH and EA are down at the pools. I was down there earlier and just came back up a little bit ago.

What is new and exciting? Nothing really here. Waiting to see if it is going to start raining. It's a 30 to 40% chance tonight, but a 80% tomorrow and 100% on Friday. Hopefully it holds out yet this evening for some fun. We're going to go out for dinner and I think play mini golf.

Hope you're all doing well - we're enjoying our vacation - a few glitches with our hotel, enough that will make me probably not go back there next year, but we're still having an awesome time.

Well, I am off to read some more of the boards while DS naps. Talk to you all later. God Bless! Keep smiling! :!!

Just a quick post before I take a nap, LOL!!! We are back home from Mt. Shasta, and I am beat. MC, my book arrived, and I will read the introduction before naptime. Then it's off to lalaland. The Stingiest Man in Town was also in the same package. TTYL

MGRamsey, I forgot to tell you that on our way to and from Mt. Shasta, we saw signs showing a mama bear and cub crossing. I immediately thought of you. Take care. How is the bear business, by the way?

HomemakinGirl, how are the ducks?

Update---the sun is out! This is from our hotel room balcony overlooking the bay.

No sign of the bear the last couple of days. Hopefully he has moved on. We will continue to try and make sure there is nothing for him to eat around the house.
