I am booked to go Edmonton!! I'll be on the same flight with my mom when she goes back on May 21st.

One of our dogs Polly back home is almost 17- I got her for my 18th B-Day and she is having some health problems, so far she is doing ok but I pray I will get another visit with her.

wooooooooohooooooo that's great MissStacey!! Will be wonderful to see Polly!

Don't know if I told you that Gene and I are driving to Toronto to see my parents on Friday! This will be my first time back in Canada since I moved. On the way back we'll probably stop in and see Gene's parents. His Dad is doing much better, but will still be in the hospital over the weekend. He had a couple of blood clots in his lungs that they're trying to get rid of. We won't be back until probably Sunday the 27th.

Wow. That is AWESOME, Carla! On both counts.

Thanks for the well wishes, everyone. It's been a terrible year for my uncle. When my aunt died unexpectedly last year (brain aneurism) he took it really hard. In fact, my cousins were making funeral preps for him as well as my aunt because he immediately went into the hospital and it was touch and go. They let him out for her funeral and he's been in and out of the hospital with pneumonia and stuff ever since. I guess he's at peace now.

Today my cousin is having her breast reconstructed. She is a breast cancer survivor and the operation, chemo, and radiation did a number on her. She is scheduled to be in the operating room for 8.5 hours because they need to remove some ribs which were damaged in the process. Also, the remaining skin had been too far damaged to insert a balloon to stretch it to accommodate an implant so they are removing fat from her stomach and creating a breast from that. She doesn't think she is getting a nipple, though. They told her to eat lots of McDonald's to gain some weight so they had something to work with. I was like "Wow. How cool is that? You can eat anything and everything and then they slice it all off and give you a tummy tuck while you get brand new perky boobies!" But, anyway.... she will be in my thoughts and prayers today and I will be on pins and needles until Cousin Tony calls. (I told Deb it's alright for her..... All she has to do is go to sleep and wake up, so the time will fly for her. For us, the time is going to go soooooo sloooooow.)

I hope everything goes great for her!

Yes, Ma'am.

Or Liz could always flash us an obscene hand gesture...

Kind of funny!! I order my pets flea meds and heartworm pills form an Australia company (much cheaper) and guess what? Australia using the metric system as well. So on a pet forum i visit, this lady complains that she bought the same flea meds from the same company that i use and she states they are FAKE!!! Why? because the dosage units are metric units!! lol

Heh. That seems silly. I'm American and I know that the sciences in the United States (including medicine) use the metric system. Apparently, she doesn't know what she's talking about.

mg/dl vs. mmol/l, quit using molality and stick with molarity like the rest of the universe. Dammit, I'm fed up with multiplying and dividing by 18 (glucose), 39 (cholesterol), 88 (creatinine) and 89 (triglycerides).

We have way too much free time and spy on people ..... NOW, when Mumsie does it, it usually involves darkness and its called being a Peeping Tom

Quit picking on Laura.

One thing I don't understand is why Len always wears a raincoat when she rides the subway, even when it's sunny out. I just don't understand it.
