I love pink, it is my favorite color too, I use a lot of purple on my page because Reed loves purple. Ugh, let's be grumpy together! Too much stuff going on for me as well. My brain hurts! Good luck with work today. Only two days left for me and then the weekend is going to be time fro me to chill out. Thank goodness my better half does the laundry. It rained and was dark and dreary yesterday, today it is like spring here, I guess our non-winter is over. Don't work too hard! I hope that you get some sunshine soon. Sorry about your BIL, that is happening so much now, it's scary. Happy March.
HI Joanne- Hope you enjoyed your weekend with Pete. How long does it take for him to drive from Pgh ? Looks like another beautiful day for us, going up to 60 again. Yesterday was my 13th year anniversary with D. I am just grateful that I don't have any complications. The time seemed to fly by, but the days went slowly. I celebrated by eating a piece of delicious dark choc. that Jim bought me for Valentines Day. Yummy !! Have a good week !!Cat
Hello Joanne. Just popping in to say hello and hope you are doing well. I know Pete is there so you will have a wonderful day. Take good care as I do care. HUGS,Reed
hi Joanne. Manny is coming to that ADA conference, it is a thrill to meet him. Donna H also will be there. I'd love to meet her. still haven't decided if I'll go.
ed is on indeed every day, also LinkedIn and the Ladders, Careers in Food, a few others. He has an MBA in Finance and has been upper management in sales and marketing for years, mostly in the food industry (consumer products).
Good Morning,Joanne. I woke up at 2 and said to myself OH NO NOT ONE OF THOSE NIGHTS I turned over and the next thing I knew it was g:45 PTL. My BG 118 unusual for me but I will take it. At 7 it was 73 and humid. How are things with you. You still doing fairly well? You tire easily? I hope things continue to improve for you. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Tom must have fish..Lenten Fridays. I hate Florida fish. I will go to the Seafood shoppe to see what they have. He is giving up so much stuff for Lent I should save money. Yiou have a wonderful day. I care. HUGS.Reed
Hi Joanne, how are you? Did you work yesterday? I hope it went well. I would think it would take some getting used to, adjusting your diet and energy levels, and dealing with the added stress of work, sometimes is hard on my stomach and that is without surgery! Sometimes it is just craziness. I am so glad that it is Friday today. The past few days I have been driving all over the place and having meetings. So much so that I am behind on my regular work, we are getting a new Electronic Health Record starting March 1, and in my job new software as well. My eyeballs feel like onions trying to learn all this new stuff. It will be nice once it is rolled out, but will be crazy at first as we try to implement it. Today I have heartburn from all the running to class and back to work to try to catch up from being gone a lot. TGIF. I will be happy when today is done and I can regroup. I am going to come home tonight and forget about everything to do with work.
I bet you are excited about the new baby! I would be thrilled I love babies, you are truly blessed. I am so happy for you.
I hope that you have a nice weekend, anything exciting planned? My idea of great plans for the weekend now is relaxing and calming down from work, not going to go a million miles a minute for two days will seem like heaven.
Joanne-That is terrific news about your newly expected grand (daughter). I take it from the graphic that it is a girl. Samantha will have a cousin close to her age. I hope the pregnancy continues to go well for your dil. I am OK taking one day at a time and enjoying our "spring" weather. Hope work isn't too difficult for you this week. Cat
Well 1st off they told her that she was due on the 20th of June then she changed drs and he told her that she was due on the 15th of July so the 4th might be it for her. LOL! I'm kinda holding out for the 29th of June b/c that's my annaversery. I will be married to my husband for 28 years on the 29th of June this year.
hi Joanne, I saw on Reed's page you're going to be a grandmother again, great news! say, how far are you from Philly? Manny and bunch of TuD are going to be there for the ADA conference in June. I am thinking of going. I think it's June 8-12, but we would meet on the Saturday or Sunday. That THON is fabulous.
Good Morning,Joanne. Gret news you are to be a Grandmother again. I bet Brian is so happy. I shall pray that all goes well. A lady at TOPS had PAD in her leg she said the surgeon was the greatest same one Russ is seeing. She told me that yesterday morning and the surgeon's office called in the afternoon. Russ sees him 3/22. I went to bed at 10:45 and the next thing I kbew it was 6:30. Things are back to normal here. I hope you are feeling better and not too tired.77 degrees here where is Winter? Take good care of yourself. I care. HUGS,Reed

Hi Joanne, I read your note on Reed's page. I am so glad that things went well at the Thon this year. I know it was a bittersweet day for you. I think that you are such a dear and giving person. Thank you for the photo you sent to me, such a sweet special child. It is so sad that any young child has to suffer. I am glad that you are having a good day today. Here it is sunny, warm and I am having a quiet and lazy day today. I hope that I get motivated soon. I have lost a few pounds. Have to keep chipping away at it. I will be thinking of you when you go to work and I hope that things go well for you. Take care.

Glad the thon went well sounds like fun. My BG 92. Glad your numbers continue to be well. Take good care of yourself. I care. HUGS,Reed
