Thanks Being Me and Tom. Could somebody pass on my apologies to Muriel, I think I stood her up somewhere out there in that winter storm. It's so easy to lose that little box #7! Did I mention that I think I have Bronchitis now too! I've made a doctors appt for tomorrow, I was gonna drop in on my way home from work but when I saw the snow on the side street doctor is on I kept driving! Yup, it just gets better and better, doesn't it. Well, you are right Tom, I will survive even though it's not a Bee Gee's tune! My girls are tough cookies and they've had a damn good upbringing, they will survive too (and prosper!). It's amazing how that parental instinct just jumps up in you any time your kids hurt. I stayed with the pain for years as much for my kids as for the M. I wanted to save it but I wanted to spare them pain so I just kept on taking that pain. There's a little part of me that still says I should have stayed and taken it, for the kids. But, that would have been a very poor choice to make. No way do I want my girls to grow up thinking that the way their Mom treated me was the way a M should be...uh uh. I think I'll be hitting the sack early tonight and getting to the doctors for some anti-biotics tomorrow. Thanks again for caring guys! Btw, latin line dance was cancelled tonight, and I just bought a pair of handcuffs for the occassion too! Oh, and I asked OSB how her plants were today, and she said "they're dead, all dead!" Wow, and I thought I had problems!
