Yep I just have the one shot a day...the pens looked so convenient. I dunno what their reasoning is. I should have the doctor prescribe it that way and see what they say. Just to mess with them. Currently I think the prescrition is for the vials a...

Hope you are well...Indeed a bummer about Dad Vail. Central Jersey? Ugh...oh well. Not sure what my son's crew schedule is for the spring. I am trying to keep up with him in the hopes of getting myself into good enough shape to row myself. Not even close yet. B-)

Later,
Jax

well coming from someone who always worked Holidays I know what its like. Didn't always do it for the $$ but becuz it was required. For a while when Brian was in school he worked at the local hospital pharmacy and did all the holidays too, so we just celebrated later when we all were home, It was harder when they were little and Christmas morning was a big deal. Now we go to Christmas Eve services @ 9pm and then come home turn on the music and pop open the drinks, open presents and usually up till like 2 am. Good times = )

well you sound like you've been busy. Wow I bet those are BIG bucks days for you at work. I gave up working holidays but remembering getting double time and a half for Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years. Now those days are the days I get to spend with my kids. Years ago they were here all the time so it didn't bother me to work them. Now they come first. I do pumpkin pie and apple tarts ( no lids) My kids would die if I didn't bake,lol. Hope ur day is good. Found out from my son that the Bryce Jordan Center at Penn State went blue on Saturday and had some things going on like @ Temple. Mount Nittany Med Center also was blue.... my area here is disappointing. Take care. Nice music =)
