hi Pete, how's everything going? what are you up to these days? I just wanted to stop by to see if you've done your Big Blue Test Today. Dont' forget that every time you log a Big Blue Test $5 is donated to diabetes charities that are providing life-saving supplies and services.

If you haven't yet, go log a Big Blue Test at http://www.bigbluetest.org/. If you have, do another!

Hello Pete. We had wild storm #4 last night and we are gearing up for another one. Russ is in a big blue stocing. He has no fractures or blood clots but his foot has fluid and inflamed. Cannot walk on it so I am his Caregiver. So there goes the weekend. Tom comes tonight so that will be a big help. You doing anything exciting? Take good care and have a good weekend. Reed

Bravo on being a featured member Pete!!

well the picture of you with manny and Emily just told the story. I remember that orange thing. She's just as beautiful as Manny, they are a great couple. I love her stuff.

It's really the best energy to be with these guys. I wrote about the first time meeting him here

I may have a chance to meet her next month at the Philly meetup. I knew she lived in your neighborhood. anyway, so nice to see you around!

Hey Pete!! How u doing??? Glad ur back with us!!

wonderful! have fun, tell them I said hi. I had a feeling you were with that firm, what an experience.

just wondering, did you work for Dewey? been reading about them in the NYTimes. my best friend works in the careers industry, writing resumes, etc. you will need a LinkedIn profile. also check out job-hunt.org (that's a dash in there) - my friend's name is Meg Guiseppi, she is the "personal branding" expert on the site. there's a ton of useful info there. also, I know Manny's looking for a admin assistant if you can go to Berkeley. Emily Coles, the new program manager for Tu, lives in the Castro, please friend her here, she's just wonderful.

Pete, I'm so happy to see you back, sorry to hear about the job situation, my husband's been out too, it's very tough.

Hello Pete. So good to have you back. And what a day to come back my 85th birthday. I wondered what happened to you. Sorry about the unemployment . You were doing so well. Did they shut up shop or downsixze. I will pray you get something soon. Right now a rip roaring thunderstorm. We needed rain so badly. My BG 104 so I am doing well. More later. Reed

Hey bud! just read your "letter"....what the $#%k went on btwn you and Missy? I was gonna message you this morning and ask again where you have been, but didnt want to bug you. Sounds like you have had much shit to deal with! Why are you meeting up with Manny? I have been wanting to message with him since I first got to TU. What is going on? I have been dealing with my neurologist almost every day now....have had 2 (two) more strokes since the first back in 05. Makes me peril.....cant help but think the "end" is near! F****** diabetes. What is happening with Missy? She hasnt responded to me in the past few months also. I would recommend to and Jimmy at least speak with a rep from Binder & Binder, they are the BEST at dealing with disability issues! Tell me how it goes...and KEEP IN TOUCH! At some point Gayle and I want to come out (probably when we are visiting her family) and hook up!

Wishing you HAPPY HOLIDAYS Jimmy too and may the year 2012 be an AWESOME YEAR FOR US ALL> REED

How are you Pete? Hope you are okay.
