Good morning Judy. I just had a minute so thought I would check in on Judy MI. Thanks so much for the update. I hope everyone else is having a great day. Take care and when I get home in about 3 weeks I will try to catch up on everything. Until then my post will be hit and miss. Hope I have some pictures of the baby to post by then and get someone to help me. So far all of the pictures are phone pictures and I want the really good ones to post. Take care and have a great day.

Good morning everyone. I will try and read to catch up then post more tomorrow. For those who haven't seen it on facebook my new great granddaughter McKenna Grace was born yesterday afternoon at 2:20 central time. I shared some pictures that my granddaughter took with her phone or had someone take. I don't know how to put them here so if anyone wants to see her just go to my facebook page. I hope all are well. I will be in touch again soon. Lillian

Hi everyone Lillian here again. I thought I would just pop in for a minute and check on everyone. Judy MI glad that you are feeling better. I hope that soon that hole in you lung will heal and you can take care of the rest of your problem.

I am still enjoying my time in Louisiana and still on baby watch. I expect to hear any minute that she is at the hospital. She was well on her way into labor a few minutes ago. I just can't imagine that she won't go today.

My nieces daughter wants me to have her yarn. Jacci was always buying yarn to make another afghan or baby blanket so I am sure there is a lot of it. Kind of threw me at first, reality sinking in. I am sure when I get back to her house in a few weeks it will really hit me hard.

Ann we just seem so intuned all of the time. Night before last I had a dream that I wanted to keep dreaming. In the dream I was with Johnny and he looked so good, it was not in our really young days but we were both much younger. I woke to go to the bathroom and was wanting to continue the dream and believe it or not I did. That was really great. Remember a few years ago when I told you that I had that dream where I was thinking that if I just found his old phone number and called it that I would find him? Well in this dream that is what happened. That is the first dream of him in a while and I felt so good after I woke up.

Well I have to run for now and see what is happening with Bridget. I think I am as nervous as she is so please keep us in your prayers. Love and prayers to all of you. I will post again soon. I am enjoying all of the seafood and other thing s that I don't get often and so far have not gained any extra weight. Boy do I need to lose some of what I already have! lol

Ann I though of you on the 15th but was unable to post. I do understand what you mean about it seeming harder. Loosing my niece on the same day as Johnny had entered the hospital that last weekend didn't help.

I know that you have moved on with your life but I also know that some things never stop hurting. Take care my friend. I do understand. Lillian

This is Lillian. After a month of trying I finally got on with a new user name I set up. For some reason I can not log on to my regular page when not on my home computer. I hope I can type this and not erase it by accident!

Most of you on facebook have seen how things have gone sense I left home. I am enjoying my family and spending probably too much time relaxing.

Many of you know that November 29th is a date that will always be a day of bad memories. That was the day that so much happened with Johnny in 2002 that led to his death on December 2nd that year. I seem to plan my trips so I am busy that day.

I spent the night of the 28th at my nephews house in Red Bluff and caught my bus to the train on the morning of the 29th. Sometime during the night my niece Jacci got out of bed and died. She was found the next morning on the kitchen floor. She had pnumonia and that was listed as primary cause of death. I still think there is more to it because I can't imagine someone just dropping dead of pnumonia. At any rate it has been very hard to wrap my heart and mind around loosing her. She was only 57. We lost her mom last January. She was so young when Jacci was born that my mom pretty much raised the 3 of us together.

I am so glad that I spent Thanksgiving with her. Those dates will have more reason to haunt me now. I guess it is just meant to be.

I am glad to see that you are all having a good start to the new year., Judy MI I hope to catch up on all that is going on with your tests.

So sorry to hear of Geri dying. I wanted to respond but was having trouble getting on here.

I have been eating a lot of things I don't normally have but so far have not gained any extra weight. I am hoping that stays the same. We went to New Orleans Monday and ate Mexican food at Poncho's then after walking the Riverwalk we stopped and had coffee and beignets at Cafe Dumond. Oh so good! I have had shrimp fried twice sense here, fried perch and fried speckled trout. I still hope to have some boiled crabs and maybe some crawfish but crawfish are still pretty expensive so not sure. I did have King Cake for the first time in 2 years last night. In fact I think I will close this book I am writing and have a piece with another cup of coffee. Happy New Year everyone.
