  1. Hi Geri,

    I've always loved hearing from you and seeing your smiling face in your profile picture. I'm so sorry that you've had such difficulties. Life can really suck sometimes but yes, you're right about the alternative.

    Rest easy, let them ALL take care of you and get better. Stay in touch and happy birthday.

  2. Good Morning,

    It's beautiful here in Orlando. Mid 80's and a nice breeze from the ENE. OK, that's all I can offer meteor-logically. Went to church, great service, great book study after. Stopped at a roadside produce stand (yes they have them even in Orlando) Got some yummy peaches, tomatoes and a watermelon.

    I have sand hill cranes that walk through my yard, almost daily. Right now, Mom and Dad have two chicks in tow. It's so neat to see Mom or Dad (don't know which one) scooping up a worm or bug and transferring it to the open mouth of the chicks. Even though these birds wreak havoc to the yard, they're still fun to watch.

    Judy in MI. I'm anxious for my trip in late summer/early fall. I'll be traveling from Muskegon up to Kingston Ontario so I know I'll be fairly close to you. I can't wait to experience the beauty of your state.

    Not much happening today. Will sit back and read. Hope you ALL have a glorious Sunday.

  3. Good Morning All,

    72 degrees and sunny. It's a beautiful day, again.

    This morning I'll pick up some friends to take them to the airport. They're flying to Minnesota, taking a bus to Iowa to pick up an RV to drive to Alaska. Sounds like a great trip. I'd love to be going along.

    Then I'm off to work at church for the day. After church I'm going to visit my sister who is about an hour away. We'll go to an Antique & Flea Market Extravaganza in Mt Dora tomorrow, which is one of my favorite things to do. They have tons of antiques and I love seeing ideas for decorating.

    Hoping you all have a great TGIF and can enjoy the weekend, stress free, pain free and happy.

    God love you all.

  4. Hello All....

    It's 66 degrees now, will get up to 88 and our humidity is coming back. We had several days of high pressure and it was near perfect.

    So happy to wake up this AM and see that Randy's sister, Heidi is cancer free. Thank God.

    Yesterday I responded to the "Air" and when I pushed the submit button I was brought back to the site and saw that Judy in KW was doing it at the same time. Does anyone know where the posts go that get lost in cyberspace?

    Today Bill would have been 63 and we would have been married 13 years. Happy Birthday Bill, I know you're having the time of your life "up there". Can't wait to see you again.

  5. Judy, I can't imagine how awful this must be for you. To go from feeling just fine and "normal" and them BAM....spasm. I will pray, I am praying that your body behaves tomorrow during the EMG.

    Sending hugs and good thoughts too.

  6. Hello All,

    I know it's a little late for Monday's Air but it's been another busy day. The weather here is perfect. Mid 80's, breezy and very low humidity.

    Hello Crowley, TX. Can't even imagine how you can stay on the road with 30 mph winds-hope they weren't that high this am. So sorry your shingles are still giving you trouble. I was fortunate to have a shingles vaccination last year.

    Donny, I'd so love to smell those lilacs-I have such wonderful memories of growing up in Wisconsin and smelling them. I have several gardenia bushes in full bloom right now and they're wonderful too.

    Heidi, so glad your Mother's Day was simple and sweet. That's what motherhood is all about.

    Judy in KW. Yes Judy, I'll be here until Aug 6th. We'll definitely do something. Drive to the coast or do lunch. I'd love you to come to my house too. By the way, your coach is beautiful. Bill and I always said when we grow up we'll get a pusher. I guess we never got to grow up.

    Judy in MI. I see you're a church lady too. I love it. Glad to see your staying busy. It will surely keep you out of trouble (unless you get that sporty new ride, that is)

    My Mother's Day was wonderful. Had a houseful of women, family and friends. Champagne brunch........presents....just plain fun.

    Hope you all have a wonderful week.

  7. We here seem to have great luck in the prayer department and could use one for Heidi, My little sister!

    I'm pretty confident that prayers and luck aren't even in the same category.

    Heidi will be in my prayers and I'll continue to pray for you and your grueling work schedule. So happy to hear it was caught early.

  8. Happy Mothers Day all, you too Eric.

    We had a lovely brunch here at the house. There were 10 of us. Yummy food, yummier mimosa's. What a delight to have all the women I love here with me. I am so very blessed.

    It's a beautiful day.

  9. It's almost Saturday and I finally am able to read the air. Busy day....Judy, I hope you enjoy your time with your son and his family and they keep you so busy that you don't have time to worry. Ned, a vacation in Waikiki sounds like heaven, let us know how it goes. Donny, glad to see you're getting out and about and yes, nice to see the snow is gone, for now. Eric, I wonder what you'll be judging tomorrow. Randy, how long can you keep up with hours like that?

    Hoping you all are able to enjoy your weekend (except Randy) he'll be working like a dog.

    Night, night

  10. Good Morning All,

    It's 74 in Orlando and a bit overcast. Had rain yesterday in town but out here, we're dry as can be. May has come in with the heat of summer and we won't see the 70's again, during the day, until late October or early November.

    Donny, I see snow and sleet in Wyoming. I guess you just never know what you're going to get up there.

    Judy in MI. Hope you're feeling better today and you got through the night without too much spasm/pain.

    Today is the day I'm meeting Judy in KW. We're meeting for coffee @ 10. Woohoo. I've been looking forward to this. Hopefully this trip to MD Anderson will be a productive, good visit with good results.

    That's all for now, I'm pretty new at this "Air" thing.

    Have a good day, all.

  11. Barb,

    We're all here for you in thoughts and prayers. Hopefully you'll be able to rest and take care. I pray the Drs are able to get you feeling better soon. We'll miss you but it's your turn to have someone look after you. May God bless you.

  12. Judy in KW.......so happy I got a chance to finally speak with you. Sorry about your eyes tiring quickly. I know the computer wreaks havoc on mine sometime. Looking forward to meeting you on Thursday.

    Judy in MI.......too bad you didn't have some kind of a solution by now. What do they have in mind if it's neuropathy? Have you tried Neurontin?

  13. Good Morning,

    Absolutely beautiful day in Orlando. All the windows are open and the breeze is blowing through the house. What shall I do today? It's a perfect day to wash windows but I'm afraid I'll have to be a tad bit more motivated to get that accomplished.

    Judy and Eric. Bill and I too, traveled in our RV from 2002 to 2007. We traveled throughout the US and Canada missing only 5 states. We LOVED it out West. The whole US is so beautiful. I have always been amazed at the different landscapes encountered while traveling into a new state, especially in the West. I loved traveling through small towns and meeting people in local shops and restaurants. I really miss those days. I have a big trip planned for Aug to Oct. Looking forward to that.

    Hope everyone's day is good today. Looks like it's pretty cool up North but we're enjoying a low humidity day. WooHoo!!

  14. Mornin' All,

    We got lots of rain and storms during the night but this morning the sun is shining brightly and everything is a beautiful shade of green.

    Today I'm off to have lunch with an old friend I haven't seen in years. She found me on Facebook. We're eating at a Thai restaurant. Should be fun.

    Judy, I know nothing about battery back-ups. Bill was my computer Guru and I sure do miss him knowing everything I didn't know about computers. Good luck figuring it out.

    I know you're getting ready to head North tomorrow. Look forward to having coffee with you on Wednesday or Thursday. Feel free to call me when you have time.

    Hope everyone has a great day.

  15. Eric,

    I'm the 26th of May, 1947 so we're close.

    Mike,

    I loved Dennis Weaver. He was one of those guys who was just a cool cowboy. Now my favorite cowboy actor is Robert Duvall.

    Bruce,

    I'd love to cut yours. Of course that's easy to say because I know I don't have to do it. Right now, I have to go out and add oil to my lawn tractor.

    Bill taught me a whole lot while he was sick and prepared me for many things, the how to's and the when to's and so on but I still don't have to like doing these things manly things. He always used to joke and say "gee Laurie, do you have to be a girl all your life?" when I wouldn't know how to do manly things. Boy, I sure have learned a lot in the last 2 years and I sure do miss him.

  16. Judy, your dinner party sounded great. Like Bruce said, people love food. I know I love when someone else is doing the cooking and entertainment. I know you're not looking forward to this week, but I'm looking forward to meeting with you. Have safe travels.

    Eric, even though I'm a girl those shows are all too familiar. Must be we were born around the same time.

    We've got hot here in Orlando. All that troublesome weather is heading down this way. Tornado warnings for all of Central Florida. I just finished cutting the grass so I'm good for another week with that.

    Mike, I don't know anything about pigeons but I'm sorry yours are gone.

    Hope everyone has a great day.

  17. It's bad, it's horrible and I do feel for you. I've been there, it's scary, I know. You WILL get through these days. Take one day at a time, one minute. He will give you strength, let Him.

    You've come to the right place for advice, answers, concern, an ear to listen and words of encouragement and knowledge to help.

    Tell us more, tell us your names, unload everything you're feeling, we want to help.
