Happy Tuesday!! I had a perfect day with Robby today, he was in the best mood and no running nose and he took almost a three hour nap. Lisa said over the weekend he got more sleep and she was as happy as I was for his good mood. If all the days were like today I would have no problem.
Jeri, love your new profile picture. Have a wonderful time on your vacation even though it seems like an ungodly time to get up to start.
Phoebe, I am only sitting until the end of the school year, Diane has been doing it a lot longer than me. I have a light at the end of my tunnel and knowing I am helping them to buy a house is incentive enough. Hope you are on the mend, my cough is much better although not completely gone. Love your pj's, very appropriate.
Shirley, I am so sorry about your cousin but it must be a blessing in some way. With that snow storm I bet you can't wait for your vacation. Birthday wishes for both John and Kristina, have a fun celebration.
Patsy, MoMo is so cute, you know how much I love OES.
Chris, I can't believe you are thinking of moving, how long have you been in this house? Are you thinking of moving closer to your kids or just to an over 55 community??
Marcella, a few acres of land would be less work than what you have now?? A cottage sounds wonderful, especially if it were like Jackies.
Anne, if you are uncomfortable about eating the buffet, you could just order tea and a fortune cookie, just tell them you have health issues and don't eat at restaurants.
Diane, a five year old would certainly wear me out, active or not. I personally feel like I am getting too old for all this sitting but again it is only until May. Once the weather breaks and we can go outside things will be better, we have a park within walking distance.
Barbie, I do not have leg cramps but glad Jake has found relief. Babe used to get them often, I think from smoking which he has stopped. I just saw that on Facebook and thought I would post in case it worked for anyone.
Have we heard from Marie and Jackie today??
Have a good evening.
Sandy

Well I lost a big long post but will be back to give my lab report. It was good.
time to round up some chow for dinner.
Marie0 -
I posted this on my news feed:
"Such a lovely day. The tearoom was wonderful and I was able to pick out several options to customize my tea. And it was served in a delicate cup and saucer with a perfect little teapot holding the extra. I will need to go back there again! Then on to a brand new grocer--maybe you have one in your location? Natural Grocers. I love it. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I wish it was a bit closer to where I live but I will definitely go back regularly as they stock a number of items that I currently have to order online. Finally to the Cohen Brothers movie (and yes, I did laugh out loud more than once)--!! Hail, Caesar! Just checking in and I have read your posts."
It was a very nice day. My friend is still healing up from a surgery and has had to take an extended leave as one incision is not healing and she has no stamina, she gets tired fast. This is not like her at all, she's always been a total energizer bunny. She's more like me now, she limits the number of activities she plans for the day and when she's feeling tired she goes home and puts whatever's left on the list for the next day. We had one more stop we had planned for after the movie but she said I need to go home.
Marie, good news on your lab report!! Sorry you lost your post.
Sandy, glad you had a great day with Robby. And I hope you have many more that are the same.
Jeri, I hope you're asleep already! THREE a.m. is definitely really early! Enjoy your trip.
Phoebe, I hope Honey enjoyed her spa treatment. I've never been to a spa! Thanks for the tips regarding my friend and his career. He is home now. He needs a job quite desperately so I believe he just will take any offer he gets (at least I think this is how he ended up in this most recent job). I just pray something more suitable comes along quickly.
Shirley, yipes, blizzard! I hope it's over and the road conditions will be improved tomorrow. And it's almost time for your trip as well. Enjoy the family birthday dinner.
Patsy, I love the pictures of MoMo. Having an encourager is a very nice thing unless it makes you feel guilty. So ride if you want to ride!! Oh I know what you mean about orchids!! There are some fairly inexpensive ones in Trader Joe's and I always pause to look when I go into the store but I don't need anything right now. They have those field run daffodils right now. I may give in and purchase a bunch. Maybe, maybe not. Best wishes on reviewing that book. I hope you honestly like it!
Chris, best wishes to you on selling your home and finding a place where you would like to live. Have you looked at anything yet? Just to see if you like the surroundings? Congratulations to your son, what a marvelous job he is doing!!
Marcella, more office work. Well, now I am feeling guilty as I have not touched anything but my dad's estate work lately. I've done nothing to do start going through last year's donations to put together values for tax purposes. I donated a very, to me at least, unusual donation to the local historical society. In the 1950's the local newspaper had a special edition for the 100th anniversary of the local cities. It was massive with oversize pages (over 100 pages of content). They gave me a receipt but no idea of the value.
Anne, maybe if this works out you could suggest having lunch there next time? My dad liked it when he could convince his friend or his cousin to stay and eat with him at the facility. (I did it all the time.) Neither of them wanted to do that often and preferred to take him out but at that point my dad did not want to go out and really he was in no condition to be taken out in a wheel chair as he was unable to transfer. Anyway, I hope it goes well. Eat as little as possible. Claim illness and/or allergy.
Diane, you are BUSY! I would not have enough energy to look after even a moderately active child! You are great to do this until the end of the school year. I hope the school year is over in May!
Barbie, glad to hear that I am not the only one who falls asleep sort of unexpectedly.
Watching NCIS but need to get up and walk around for a while. I have been sitting too much today. Hugs everyone.
Lin0 -
Hello again had my dinner and another nap. Dang the naps taking up all of my time. and sitting up in a chair to booth. Must be the weather or that time of the year.
My blood sugar was 6.5 kidneys Was in stage 3 where it was stage 4 Anyway my plan is working and will be sticking with it I honestly believe the right food is the best medications.Marie0 -

Hope everyone got a good laugh out of what I had Sandy put on here for me. Lots of us did Home Economics in school so I am sure you will appreciate this. Thanks Sandy !

Another evening shot waiting on HOLD while on the phone regarding the Pharmacy Mail Order cancelling my prescription because my "doctor has not answered the faxes". Tonight I insisted on answers since I knew his office had sent it in 4 times. Well, it seems the instructions were not always the same; one read 2 pills in the morning, 1 pill at night, while another read 1 pill 3 time a day. They all came to 270 pills anyway. but they would have cancelled the RXs had I not kept calling!
My daughter's Mother-in-Law died th Buzzis morning at 4 A.M.. She had gone down to 79 pounds, but had returned to her home from the hospital stay they thought she would never survive. I think she was determined to get back to her own home! Here was a woman in her 90s still attempting to swim 3 miles daily, and finishing up her autobiography while reaching a class
in literature and book reviewing! She and I had he same first name, Barbara, same birthday, and shared a granddaughter born on our birthday! How amazing is that?
I'm not certain what I accomplished today, but I hope my frustrations are finished. I'm really exhausted,
CHRIS, we spent 20 years in our Over 55 community and enjoyed every moment! And I'm not
a "joiner", card player, or party person. But there was enough diversity to satisfy everyone! Good luck whatever you do!
MARIE, sounds like you finally struck the right way of life!
SANDY, did I mention what a sweetheart you are, always trying to help everyone around you, including us?
Actually, I think the same can be said of all of you, so thank you just for being in my life!

Uuuuuuuuh (?) my women's lib thing rose to the surface and I just had to laugh remembering my mom and grandmother when they sewed. My grandmother would be singing and she would unfortunately have an ashtray near at hand. She smoked constantly. Believe me it wasn't a pretty sight. And she had a treadle machine, I think that's what they were called. (Didn't use electricity) She could make anything really. She even made my panties with a ruffle around the leg to match my dress. She NEVER looked neatly put together. Funny to see this ad from another time in history.
Patsy0 -
Just thought you sewers might like to know I have my grandmothers treadle Singer sewing machine. I also have the original bill of sale. She bought the machine in Beverly, East Yorkshire, UK, on May 3rd 1889 and it's made out to Miss Jessop for £4.90 with accessories included! Roughly $10!!!!! She was about 18 I think and her father, my great grandfather, ran the village post office in Atwick, EY.
I also have my mothers Singer sewing machine from the 1940's, but no bill of sale!
Both machines work beautifully, but I'm alas not a seamstress.
Anne.0 -
Jeri - Have a safe, fun and wonderful trip.
Shirley - Hope you’re staying warm with all the snow.
Lin - That’s really neat that you had that paper from the 1950’s for the historical society. Your post reminded me that I have a couple of things that I need to pass on to our local county medical association from our past medical society alliance.
Marie - The right food is absolutely the best medicine! You’re improved numbers would seem to bear out that fact. I’m thrilled to see that you are continually improving and enjoying what you are eating. Way to go!!!
Diane and Sandy - Thank you for sharing the sewing instructions. I know that this will help me do a better job the next time I sit don’t to make something! Sometimes, I forget just how much things have changed.
Anne - That is so cool that you have those sewing machines. And obviously, if you complete all of your chores, get dressed up and look your very best, you actually can be a seamstress!
Buzz - Just don’t even get me going about health care. (always frustrating!) But glad you persevered and got your meds.
…and to those of you with the energy to look after your young grandchildren, I’m seriously impressed. There should be an MFP cardio exercise that you could log for that!
Have a blessed day everyone,
Marcella

What a difference a day makes! Yesterday I was walking George early in frosty sunshine then swimming with friends before changing a headlight in my car with a great deal of help from my neighbour because the small area under the bonnet that holds the bulbs is so difficult to get a hand in, then we cut out a gap in the wood gate at the side of my property and popped in a cat flap so that Jasper with the injured knee doesn't have to climb and jump off it. Today I had thoughts of Barbie trying to encourage her poodles to walk in the rain as George was a miserable pooch being almost dragged around the village in pouring rain!! I've done little since other than light the fire and watch daytime rubbish on tv, something I never do!! Now I feel lethargic and it's my own fault so will get the exercise bike out before my dinner and make up for the lack of movement.
Tomorrow I'm driving back to the city of Plymouth for a dental check up and some shopping but that's all so can get a good walk on the moors in the afternoon. I've read all the posts and love the fact Anne still has gran's Singer. Unfortunately my gran's beautiful antique German boxed sewing machine suffered water damage in my garage a few years ago and was thrown out which I regretted afterwards because there is an organisation that collects old machines and distributes to families in Africa to use and make a business with. There was nothing wrong with the machine itself, just its box!
Hello to everyone and happy Wednesday.
Jackie0 -
My mom also had the Singer sewing machine. It was black and heavy. She used to make my clothes for school and was very talented. Alas, I did not inherit her talent nor did my sister.
I finally got all the details for my cousin's funeral and it will be on Friday from 3pm-8pm and they will hold the memorial after that. I called my sister and asked her if she wanted her name added to the flowers and she said, of course. So the flowers are sent.
I visited my MIL after Yoga class today and we talked about her 90th birthday party, but she said she did not want an open house. Her white blood count has been slowly going up again and she said what if
I don't feel well that day. So we decided on a family only party at our house in April.
It has been busy around here, I am finally going to pack today for our trip.
Jeri - Enjoy the sunshine in Florida and have a good time. You will be at the mercy of your friends
for transportation but hope that goes well.
Lin - Saw your post this morning about your tea room experience sounds like a lovely time.
Marie - Great news about your stats, keep up the good work and the new eating plan.
Diane - so nice to hear from you and you seem very busy with your grandkids and you are having
some great weather. Our sun just came out but it was still snowing this morning.
Sandy - A good day with Robby is always a good day for you.
Chris- will you be staying in the same state if you move?
Barbie- I heard about the soap under the covers from my MIL, she used to do that, or maybe
still does. If I get a leg cramp I am awake, thank goodness. They can be very painful.
Hello to Jackie, Marcella, Anne, Phoebe, Buzz and Patsy. Are group sure is growing. Nice.
Well better get packing.
Shirley0 -
Hello friends, busy day so far. Have a couple loads of laundry out of the way (including removing the dabs of blood from my sliced fingertip). Fresh sheets and towels. Wahoo! Did some cooking, long phone call, had a lovely lunch, listened to a webinar on the economics of pollution (as it pertains to agricultural land). I have web sites to visit to check on information. And have to decide if I want to devote almost 3 hours to a seminar at the library tonight on “your money in retirement.” I don’t know what the heck could take that long but I don’t think I could sit that long. I am such a fidgeter!
Jackie, I hope you have a good trip to the dentist tomorrow and that no work is needed! I am glad you arranged your schedule to allow for fitting in something that you like. Good job on changing that headlight by the way. I would not take that on. I’d be off to the dealership in a flash. They scare you about how you have to set the bulb right so the lights track properly, yada, yada, yada. Congratulations on that accomplishment.
Marcella, I hope long term you end up living in a location that suits both of you. Do you do lots of office work each day? A friend of mine started working for her son part-time to help get the billing up-to-date. Part-time has evolved to more and more. She is now full-time and she is doing the work of church secretary as well. When she’s not doing that she’s usually off to watch some activity of one of her 10 (soon to be 11) grandchildren. She does less baby-sitting now though. Is that a plus?
Anne, wow, it is wonderful that you have those machines. I wanted my Grandmother's treadle machine soooo badly but it was so damaged I had to give it up. She used it to make all of her children’s clothing. When I was a child she finally got a portable table-top Singer machine and used that to make doll clothes for one of my dolls, aprons for many, clothing got herself, etc. She was very talented. She did not dress up though. In fact when it was really hot I am not sure she wore her house slippers!
Patsy, I agree, definitely a different time for certain. At first I wondered if it was a real ad. Cool—ruffles on your panties!
Buzz, what a mess with your prescriptions. Excellent perseverance to get things straightened out.
Diane, good to hear from you. You find the most interesting things on Facebook!
Marie, continued excellent results on the McDougall plan. High five!!
I need to get back to it. About 13,000 steps in today and 17 flights of stairs. Wahoo!
Hugs.

My day started at 6:04 AM with a call from my "grandson in Peru"! It had my daughter's cell number in the ID, and it took a moment to realize someone somewhere had stolen her number AND phone list! Another busy day with records, doctors, internet not working (Comcast was having problems in my area), a dear friend being unresponsive in her bed, and altogether a day I would like to see end! Things happen, and perhaps these last few days will be a memory soon! I hope everyone will be well and only good news happens.
By the way, my old treadle was a White Rotary, which we electrified and I sewed all my kids clothes as well as my own for many years. That was MY therapy back when I had 3 kids, 2 dogs, 5 cats, and a husband with PTSD!!! But I wouldn't change a thing!
Buzz0 -
Happy Wednesday!! My son picked up Robby at three so I have a little extra time before getting ready for bingo and going to the bank. My doctor's office called and said they want me to repeat the blood work for my thyroid, it is a little high. I am not sure when I can do that with watching Robby all day. I will try for a Saturday appointment but they are usually booked.
Some of my other results were highlighted as well so I am not sure what any of this means. I have some back back on my left side that I was contributing to lifting Robby or riding the bike but now I am wondering if there is a kidney problem The nurse didn't explain anything which is frustrating so I sent an email asking if I should be concerned. What ever happened to the doctor giving you the results instead of sending them on a portal online???
Lin, 17 flights of stairs??? My goodness that is a lot of stairs along with 13,000 steps. You should be exhausted.
Shirley, I bet you feel better knowing you can make the service before your vacation. You will be able to enjoy yourself without any regrets. 90 years old for your MIL's next birthday and she still lives alone?? She sounds amazing.
Jackie, with all that you do it doesn't sound lazy to me to just sit by the fire and relax.
Marcella, there are a lot of steps while watching Robby but not as much as Barbie or Lin.
I am grateful he takes a long nap even when I can't seem to nap during the day.
Time seems to be slipping away and I still have to shower. Sorry for those I missed.

Dear friends,
Just a quick note. It is my hubby who thinks we should move. I love our home, its beautiful. The real estate guy came and said it was beautiful with great up grades. We went and looked at a couple places today some to high priced some just not what we want.
hubby thought maybe a 55 + would be OK but he agreed it's hard to leave this place. So maybe he will change his mind and just stay here.
The only problem is the driveway has a big incline and he's afraid someone could fall in the winter getting up it.
So my house got an early spring cleaning and it looks great.
Sandy good luck at bingo.
Shirley. Hope your yoga is fun and relaxing.
Buzz, My mom has a old trudle sewing machine, wish I had one.
Lin, enjoy your meeting
Happy day to all
Chris0 -
My grandmother's machine was the kind with the paddle thing. Then someone converted it to electric. My late mother in law sewed anything. She liked my blouse, borrowed it, cut out a pattern and made several for me. I'm too big for them but I can't give them away, sniffle.
Weird day, involving me sleeping too too late. It never seems to catch me up on sleep and of course, I'm wide awake now. Jim requested peanut butter cookies, which I'm about to bake, after the dough has chilled.
Buzz, I hope your weather this week will be good so that Jeri can enjoy it too. I heard about some kind of storm? I could have dreamed it. I'm dreaming nutty stuff.
Dolly wants to go outside but she's not going to until the very last minute when we go back to work. Still limping. :-[
Time to preheat the oven.
Phoebe0 -
Enjoyed reading all about the family sewing machines, especially Annes since she still has the original receipt. I see those antique machines periodically being sold. Some of them really are in nice cabinetry, but wonder how functional they are these days. I used the large black Singer, which was electric that belonged to my mother in the early 1960s. The rule was she would buy me one outfit for school and I had to make anything else I wanted. Being I was a hard child to fit it was probably best because then I had things to wear then. Too much of a perfectionist for my own good. Made clothes for our kids during the toddler yrs and I haven't stitched a thing since due to problems with my machine. It could never get fixed right, so I donated it. Always thought I would like to make a quilt when I retired, but have yet to do it. The new machines are so elaborate and far more than I want to deal with. I really need to take a quilting class to inspire me, but then I would have to set up a sewing room like Chris and Marie. Now that would take some real juggling of space in our senior 55+ home. Where there is a well there is a way...right ?
Pouring rain out tonight with very strong winds. They picked up the 2 large wicker rockers, which were covered and sent them fly across the back of the house. Wonder if my two bird houses still exist ? Shall find out tomorrow.
Surprise....no looking after our granddaughter today, but she will be back tomorrow. Sounds like a game day to me if the rain sticks around. Found her some Silly Putty and a Jump Rope at the Dollar Tree yesterday. She was happy.
Time to call it a night. Sweet dreams ladies....
Diane0 -
Good very cold morning, BUT it will be minus 2 this afternoon!
For anybody who MIGHT be interested here's the receipt for grannies sewing machine, if not, apologies for wasting space!
Anne.

Anne - Love the receipt!
Chris - When my next door neighbor retired, he and his wife were going to move and downsize. After looking around, they decided it was more cost effective to stay where they were and invest in adding a new outdoor patio area for a home they already loved. Whatever you guys decide, have fun with the process!
Well, today is my errand day. I'm in desperate need of a new pair of casual flat shoes to wear and my narrow feet make that a difficult task. But, I think I will stop by the outlet mall to see what I can find before picking up my milk, eggs and veggies from the market. Also have a big pile of laundry calling my name today. Fun times!
Marcella0 -
Good morning - I love the receipt Anne. I adore just looking at the lovely writing. I never did do cursive all that well. Sorry it is still cold that means no trip to the store?
Chris, I have been thinking about my 2-story house and I do not wish to move but have been thinking about what I could do to keep myself right here longer. Anything I think of would be wildly expensive. So I just go on as is.
Marcella, a new pair of casual flats. Hummmm. I send along best wishes. Sometimes it is easy to find something new, other times, insanely difficult. Since I need size 11, the choices are always limited at best. Then the width, sometimes medium width is fine, in other styles I need to try wide. Happy hunting.
Diane, enjoy your day off and I hope you did not lose your bird houses! That was a *strong* wind!
Phoebe, how did the cookies turn out? I had a portable machine with a foot pedal. Oh my gosh, I would hit that pedal too hard and off to the races! I didn't do much sewing. I did almost everything by hand. My mom had a machine in a case and to run it you pushed with the side of your leg. I don't think I was destined to sew!!
Chris, I hope you and DH will continue to be happy no matter where you live.
Sandy, my doctor doesn't call or have anyone call, they just put the results in the mail to me and someone scribbles on it that everything's okay or an assistant will call and ask where to phone in a prescription change for my synthroid. There are no explanations these days.
Buzz, ha, finding a relative in Peru. Oh yes, you bet. Lately I have been winning cruise after cruise. I've stopped picking up the phone if I see an unknown phone number.
Shirley, is the snow melting? I hope the roads will be okay for you on Friday to attend the services.
I need a trip to Walmart this morning (and a couple of other stops) so need to get going soon).
Hugs.

Anne love the receipt and in such good condition woof love t o see the sewing machine. singer made such wonderful Maxchine back in the heyday but now they are such cheaply made. I know for I have one for of them in my closets
Thanks Anne for sharing. Love it.

Happy Thursday!! Lisa texted me at bingo last night to say she was staying home with Robby to wait for a repairman. Rob left work early yesterday thinking he was coming yesterday but he got a call saying they were confirming for today so Lisa took the day off.
I am glad she did though, I am going to the doctor this afternoon. Last night at bingo my cough came back with a vengeance and I am tired of coughing. I am hoping they will also repeat the blood work but they said they might not because of being sick. If I talk about a flu or pneumonia shot next year remind me that I don't want any. The good news is that I won a total of $88.
Lin, I miss the old days and the old doctors. I even had a pediatrician who came to my house when my first son was ill. Things changed that same year (1963) and house calls were no longer done but you could still call at the last minute and get in to see the doctor. Heck, I am not even seeing my regular doctor, I have to see one of her associates. Not sure what the purpose of having a primary doctor is when they are too busy to see you. Thanks for letting me rant!!!!
Marcella, I meant no disrespect to your husband, it is just a changing world with health care and most of it is not the doctor's fault.
Anne, love the receipt and still love cursive writing. With cell phones and keyboards not a lot of people use cursive, same for addition without a cash register that does it for them.
Diane, those are some powerful wind gusts to pick up chairs, I hope you didn't get any other damage. Funny, how we both had a day off from our sitting, feels good doesn't it??
Phoebe, I try to catch up on sleep when I don't have Robby, but I stay up too late on those days just like if I were a child with no school the next day. Poor Dolly, hope she mends quickly. Lucky Jim to have a wife who bakes for him at his request.
Chris, years and years ago, Babe and I looked at a Dell Web over 55 community. We actually loved it, but it was too far from his son's and he wasn't ready to make any moves. It has a lot to do if you were interested but also was just a nice environment. Of course the biggest problem was you couldn't have a fence and we liked that our dogs had a fenced yard to just spend time outside by themselves. I guess it all worked out for the best.
Jackie and Marie, hope all is well with you. Shirley is probably busy packing and Jeri should be in the sunshine state warming up.
Have a good day.
Sandy

What a beauty. Along the receipt what a great antique Love it. Thanks so much for posting Anne.0

There's an enclosed wooden box inside the wooden cover to store ones needles and threads, pretty neat! This machine is still in working order, it just needs oiling. My mothers 76 year old Singer still works as well and she made a lot of her clothes on it until well into her eighties. Her mother, my granny Gawan, died when Mom was only 6 weeks old, but before she married, granny Miss Porter, was a tailoress. I wish I'd inherited their skills!! The gym shorts we had to make at school put me off for life! Fancy expecting little girls to enjoy sewing when struggling with heavy duty navy blue fabric! Before the shorts, long droopy navy blue knickers which encouraged one to struggle with the shorts! A crueller age for kiddies in the free world wouldn't you say?

Love it Anne!!!!0

A quickie after reading all your posts (no PHOEBE, those tornadoes were not in Boca, just a bit further south!), ANNE's mention of the sturdy blue gym shorts she hated making! What memories you brought back struggling to make those in something like the 4th grade! Enough to discourage one for life! But when my kids were young I discovered my folk's old White Rotary, and then Vogue patterns, and was I ever hooked! I have to go help my cleaning gal, thank goodness, as she and I make the bed together much better than I, alone, or Mike and me together! Stay well, have a happy day...
Buzz0 -
Anne, I love the photos too. the receipt is so pretty!! and the machine... oh my.. beautiful.
I bought a machine with the cabinet for $80. I have no idea if it works. It is electric.. the wires look old. The cabinet drawer had all kind of treasures..to me anyway..old needle packages, bobbins, etc.. gobs of needles. I think the name on the machine is blue ridge. I use my Kenmore machine on the closed sewing cabinet.
I'm working on taxes, ooops not supposed to be here!!
Phoebe0 -
Went to the doctor got a prescription to suppress my cough and was told to buy Robitussin DM and a nasal spray and drink lots of water. She explained my blood tests results which in essence said as you get older you lose less function of your kidneys so there is nothing to worry about. I had the repeat blood test of the thyroid and now just have to wait for those results. She said a viral cough can last as long as three months but hopefully mine won't.
I asked about sitting for Robby and she said to just be careful, wash my hands a lot and don't cough on him DUH!! At least I feel better knowing I don't have walking pneumonia and it is a possibility that I got my cough from Robby.
It worked out great with Lisa taking off today and she said she might take tomorrow off because her mother and father put in a bid on a house in Florida and an appraiser is coming to appraise their house in Illinois. This would be a winter home away from Illinois winters. If her brother can do it she will go to work otherwise she is willing to take off again and I will have another day off.
Have a good night.
Sandy
