<p>Yup, good vibes to <strong>Grayson</strong>!  And to <strong>Moe</strong> and <strong>Beaker</strong> and anyone else that wants 'em...</p>

 

[Litchfield Hills]

<p>Thinking lots of happy, healthy and safe vibes for Grayson & KJ, Moe and her family, Torques clan, and anyone else who needs them.  And hopefully a happy birthday to Colin!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I have this week off (using up vacation days).  So far, I have cleaned out the fridge, dusted, and done two loads of laundry.  I sure do know how to have fun!!</p>

<p>Greetings, all.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>KJ</strong> - we're thinking of you and little Grayson today.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Fun:  (yesterday)  Met up with a friend from high school for lunch at PF Chang's.  Enjoyed the company (been far too long) and had a very healthy lunch with their Ahi tuna appetizer + a side of steamed veggies.    Makes me wish there was a PF Chang's closer than an hour's drive.  Yummie.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Beakerbabe</strong> - As I don't expect her to be posting soon, has anyone heard if Colin has made his appearance yet?</p>
<p> </p>

<p><span>I'm going to see my mother this morning with my sister, so my father doesn't have to come into Boston so early.  We think the next move is likely that she'll have to go to a nursing home/hospice, but I suppose we'll know more later today or this week.  I told my father last night that we have to be included in meetings with the docs and the decisions that get made, mostly because he's so distraught, I think we need to be part of the decisions.</span></p>

<p>Welcome, Colin!!!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Lots and lots of strength and love to <strong>KJ</strong> and her family, and <strong>Maureen</strong> and her family. </p>

 

[Runninlaw]

<p>Hey Theia!  How are you?  I was picking out a happy birthday smile and thought of you and GoV when I saw this:  <span><img alt="hal.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/hal.gif" style="width:63px;height:15px;"></span></p>

<p><span><img alt="biggrin.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="width:16px;height:16px;"></span>   I've noticed that one too.  Too funny.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'm doing fine.  Stressed, tired, broke... Yep, it's Christmastime!   <span><img alt="biggrin.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="width:16px;height:16px;"></span>  Hope everyone else is doing well!</p>

 

[Brandy]

<p>Happy birthday Colin!  </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Good vibes to KJ and baby Grayson and to Moe and her family.  This kind of stuff is so hard on all sorts of levels.  Big hugs to all</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Litch - come over to my house when you are done with yours  </p>

 

[Ailarie]

<p>Oops... oversight on my part earlier.    (((((((((((((((((((( <strong>Maureen</strong> ))))))))))))))))))))))  I think that it's very wise for you and/or sis to be involved with the discussions with the doctors.  Whether he says it out loud or not, I'm sure your dad welcomes the involvement.</p>

I have a recipe for chocolate mint sandwich cookies. It's a peppermint patty squished between 2 chocolate cookies while the cookies are still warm. DEEEEELICIOUS.</p>

<p>Hair cut this afternoon. WOOHOO!!!! And sewing more buttons on niece Anne's scarf. Somehow I only allowed 1 button per owl. But owls have TWO eyes. Duh. And then blocking it, and working on a neck gator for my mom. Oh, and I should glaze a kiln load today. That'll take a few hours.</p>

<p>Welcome to the world, <strong>Colin</strong>!  A friend had a baby here on Friday, so I'm swimming in new babies!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hopefully, I'll get my grades posted today and then I'm officially done with this semester.  It's been poopy.</p>
<p>Drama around the family photo calendar, but I should be able to resolve it before present time.  Thankfully, my family's not doing presents until the 29th so I have extra time.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>When <span style="color:rgb(0,100,0);"><strong>Maria</strong></span> said it was her Friday, I was tricked into thinking it was Thursday today...but it's Monday.  Oh, well.  I guess technically, it's my Thursday!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Have a good one, peeps!</p>
