:o)
Going to the Grand Canyon (the bottom of it) as an anniversary celebration. (OK........we're a little weird).
Later on elder son and wife are coming home for a visit from South America. Yessss!!!!!!!
Later than that going to western PA.
Then going to Minnesota.............again.
Perhaps life will settle for me some day.........but I have NO idea when. All I know is that I WANT to get together with everyone again!!
Ah, yes! It’s good to see pictures of him smiling. He hasn’t had very much to smile about lately, has he.
We’re going to miss him! One of the most intelligent and influential VPs we’ve ever had!
***FABulous jacket, Mrs. B!!! What a classy lady.***
Yes, it even has sleeves that come down to the wrist.
(( HUGS & HAPPY MOMMY’S DAY TO EVERYONE ))
Wonderful, wonderful, beautiful, beautiful Dose, Wolfstar.
Thank you for the links and postings, DrDeb.
mystery = One of your Pugs in the photo with your darling grandsons! SO CUTE!!
LUVW = hey Grandma BRAT — another *thud* photo of POTUS! I love it!!
Gotta run. Thanks again for the Dose, Wolfstar and for posting POTUS’s schedule for this upcoming week.
TONY BLAIR is coming to visit!!! How about THAT, snugs?
I think it was around the very first of July
(((((((((((BRAT))))))))))
I have MISSED you! Thanks for running through on your
way to heaven knows where!
See ya? Glad you liked the pic. He is a hunka-hunka, isn’t he?
Happy Birthday to your Mom...a bit early. Wow.....good for your her....a Dem and voting for our W!
go to www.whitehouse.gov/greetings. scroll down a bit and there’s a link that will take you to a form to complete.
Bet your Mom, like Mom, would be thrilled to receive card from President and Mrs. Bush.
Oh, what a fantastic tribute to Dose Mom’s.....a tip of the hat from W ! This is really nice, LUVW!
Why thank you....I am glad you enjoyed it.
He is a hottie, huh? :D
Thanks for the message about the replay of the Jamestown celebration at 2am.
I had checked cspan, and did not find the posting. So I just went back to the “earlier today” section to see if they had posted the live event. They had.
Then I went back to tonight’s schedule and discovered that if we do math looking for ‘unposted minutes’ this is what we find:
12:30 AM EDT
1:25 (est.) Video Magazine
Road to the White House
C-SPAN
02:41 AM EDT
1:52 (est.)
House Committee
Wounded and Returning Veterans
Veterans Affairs
Robert Filner , D-CA
R. James Nicholson , Department of Veterans Affairs
12:30 + 1:25 = 1:55 [end of posted program]
1:55 + 45 {the time noted at the noon live broadcast] = 2:40 which just happens to be the time posted for their next scheduled program.
No one at cspan will ever convince me that this is inadvertant or a coincidence. They deliberately refuse to post the President’s appearances whenever they can get away with it.
I am going to try to call in tomorrow morning during open phones to see if I can point out this bias on-air.
Eleanor, I would agree.....think your Dad will better enjoy his presents now that he’s settled back at home.
I am soooo happy for both of you. Hope he continues to feel better each day!
Wouldn’t you love to know what’s in that case?
Wonder if it’s his lunch! LOL!
‘He is a hottie, huh? :D’
Oh yeah! Think my hubby gets a bit green eyed cause he knows, like you, I love W...lol. But, I reassure him, I love W only in the most respectful way!
OMG, the boys have grown so....they are ADORABLE!!
I remember when Brandon was born......
I can see that watching these two beautiful little boys can bring a lot of joy. God bless them.
...and, of course, watching Mike cook was also a good thing...lol!
That is a FABULOUS photo, Nancy. They’re getting SO big .. SO fast!! Darn .. the time, it’s flying ... just yesterday, you posted the baby pictures. SO glad Jon called you .. I know it made your day. I just love that picture from the sandbox .. God bless him and all of you, and all our brave military and families.
LOVE the Dose, Wolfie .. those pics at Jamestown are awesome. To think of what the early Americans endured is staggering. What a wimpy, whiny society we’ve become in the main today. Thank you! Hope your babies took sweet care of you today .. ;)
On another note .. would appreciate your prayers. I’m doing something I’ve really been putting off for a long while: having a knee replacement .. sched. for June 5. I hate the thought of any surgery, darn scared of it .. but I’m bone on bone in both knees - no cartilege, and was suddenly told that my position would be ending Aug. 1. So while I’ve got insurance, I have to end at least half of my misery, which has just gotten worse by the day. I know it’ll be painful, but it’ll get so much worse if I don’t do it. Thank God .. no general anesthesia ... I’ll get an epidural. YAY!
It’s really restricting me so much, and maybe I’ll be able to be more mobile and active, which will maybe allow me to find another job when this is over. If all my prayers are answered, if I heal well, I could possibly get the other one done 6 weeks later, but that’s a close call.
Plans are for it to be the relatively new minimally invasive procedure, so no muscles should be cut, thereby eliminating the need to go to a rehab facility. I should be in hosp. for about 4 days, and come home. I’m hoping I’ll be able to continue working from home that next week, with the physical therapist coming here 3 times a week for a few weeks. I’ll be on a walker for about 10 days, then graduate to a cane for another week or so, God willing.
I truly HATE and fear the thought of surgery .. so I’m praying for calmness and peace about it, and good healing.
Had a spectacular Mother’s Day .. really the weekend. Last night, my #1 son had a huge milestone b-day bash at a great
restaurant and club for about 80. I was a bit sad, because son #2 is on a new job adventure, traveling for the whole summer for a telecom company, and I knew he’d be hating missing this memorable occasion for his bro. About an hour after I got there, as I was chatting with some friends .. I turned, and #2 was standing there with MD flowers!! He had told NO one .. and surprised us all.
I bawled like a baby ... but what a night, what a gift for all of us .. so much fun after that, and we met today for brunch before his flight to return to OK.
OWF and Dolly .. he leaves tomorrow for his next event somewhere in OH .. if I find out, I’ll let ya know. His appearance would be hard to miss .. they drive a lime green dually truck and pull a 40’ trailer with a lime green restored ‘58 Chevy truck on it .. their corp. logo icon... and set up their tents at county, state fairs, special events, etc.
Hope all the Dose Moms had a wonderful day. God bless us all, our dear President and family and our incredibly courageous military and their families..
DrDeb, thank you for the wonderful ‘conductor W’ post and pics. W is just such a down to earth person.....one of the reasons I love him.
