Good morning.
Roger, we are hosting the art show and reception, so we're all bringing things for the reception. I ended up baking a banana bread (quick and easy and delicious!).
Best wishes with all your preparations today, and will keep sending the healing thoughts for you.
Jo, I have a few paintings in the show...there are over 80 pieces of art work this time. Some of us did versions of impressionist paintings, so there's a section on that in addition to the other pieces. It'll be fun. My daughter and husband will be coming. I asked a few friends too, but I think they're mostly busy.
Always nice to get a haircut!
Hi Irene!
It's raining here today, with only a high of 70 expected. It didn't get very warm yesterday either.
Wishing everyone a good Thursday!
Banana Bread with some butter smeared on it is delicious and delicious even without the butter BTW.
Impressionists paintings hmm...
At least the rain ended mid morning and by noon the roads were dry.
Have a Good Day

Roger It is my fault I am stuck I sometimes have more to eat then I am suppose to like some of the fried potatoes when we go out for breakfast on Sunday's . Roger the only way that I know to get the bars is by ordering them on line if I hear of any other place I will let you know. Jo I love when I get my hair done it just feels and looks so nice. Vix enjoy yourself at the art show take care everyone Roger you are in my prayers
The rain started out real slow and slowly built up in how hard and then it was gone
The only way I know of to deal with the fried potatoes that come with egg breakfasts is to tell them no potatoes. Likewise with the rice and Chinese food.
Thank You for the Prayers

Good morning.
I hope Roger is through the worst of it now. Sending healing thoughts.
Hi Jo and Irene.
It's partly cloudy and windy here this morning. Supposed to go up to 75 later. I'm going to downtown Frederick today with a friend. Just to walk around and browse the little shops, maybe have lunch. It should be fun.
The art show went well. There were some guests, and all the artists liked how I hung the pictures.
Happy Friday, everyone.0 -
good morning, vix glad your art show went well. This morning when we walked it was 52 it sure was on the chilly side . I think we are going to home depot today to look at doors we want to replace it when it rains really hard water comes in so it is time to replace it , since we are replacing our steps there we figured we would replace the door also . In time we also are going to replace the steps that go out to our patio. Roger hope the worst is over sending prayers. Hi jo0

Good afternoon;
It is 80 here with a slight breeze. After work I puttered around in the yard for a bit.
Vix-I am glad the art show went well.
Irene-Any pool time today?
I am thinking of Roger and sending healing vibes his way. I hope he is not in too much pain after the surgery.
Nothing planned for the afternoon, I may finish the book I was reading.
Have a good afternoon.0 -

Mostly cloudy here today with a high of 83, t-storms expected in the afternoon.
Jo, hope you enjoyed your puttering and got a chance to relax and read.
Irene, hope you get to enjoy your pool today.
I didn't get to the grocery store yesterday, but went to Frederick and picked up my dry cleaning at Zips. Also checked out a Burlington Coat Factory there. It was kind of a mess, but picked up a some cute shorts onesies for my grandson.
We're going to my daughter's for Father's day this evening. It will be great to have the whole family there.
Happy Sunday!1 -

Good evening;
I heard from Roger's brother today. Here is what he sent me.
To Joanne
I am Rogers Brother, and he has asked me to let some of the folks he is in contact with on the food forum and let them know what is happening. You are on the list. please overlook the cut and paste, as I am doing it to save the time it would take to retype it several times for the others he has asked me to contact
So here we go. He was admitted friday morning to rwj new brunswick. His operation took around 9 to 10 hours. According to the doctors they removed a bit over half of his liver, the gall bladder, some lymph nodes, a very large tumor, and he lost a lot of blood as the tumor had grown blood vessels that were attached to other areas. The tumor size the doc told me on the phone friday eve was " very large" when pressed, stated although a irregular shape, about the size of a small watermelon. When I saw him sunday he was sleeping a lot and very weak. still on IV drips and a epidural for pain control. The DR. was away for the weekend and covering Dr say little
Do not know how long he will be there or what sort of prognosis there is as yet nor do I have any idea what if any follow up protocols there will be.

Hi all,
I got the note from Mike too. It'll probably be a while before we hear from Roger, but it was nice of Mike to let us know. Sending more healing thoughts up to Roger.1 -
Good morning.

Wishing you all a good Tuesday.1 -

Today I have the plumber coming over to replace 2 bathroom and a kitchen faucet they are pretty cool they have led lights on them when you run water it lights up. take care everyone0

Good evening;
It has been raining all day. We are back at the gym this week. I didn't gain any weight on vacation but have been stuck at the same weight for about a month. Ideally I would like to lose another 20 lbs. but I will settle for 10.
Roger- you are in my thoughts and prayers and I hope you are feeling better every day.
Vix-you were a busy girl today.
Irene-do you walk or run on the treadmill? The one I use at the gym has a program on it that I can do laps. I walk a lap, run a lap until I reach 2 miles. I am slowly trying to build up to running a mile.
Have a good evening.

good morning, jo my treadmill has laps also but I walk on mine I did 2 miles today I am afraid of hurting my knee so I just walk. Hi vix . I really miss Roger hope he is sending prayers for him1
-
Good morning.
Healing thoughts being sent to Roger...miss him and his early morning posts.
Irene, that's pretty good on the tread mill.
Jo, you're doing good too...great that you can run on the treadmill.
I'll probably use my eliptical today, maybe some pt exercises, and some cleaning.
Nothing else planned.
Hubby's gone for some blood tests today, and tomorrow he's going to get one of those internal camera tests, so he has to fast later.
Another day into the 80s today with expected t-storms this afternoon.
Have a good Wednesday, everyone.1 -

Jo so nice that you will be off of work for a couple of days. Hey vix that are you planning today? Well today is the day Roger is suppose to come home hope he is doing good take care everyone1

Good morning.
Cloudy, warm, and windy here this morning. Forecast shows partly cloudy with a high of 79.
Enjoy your 3-day weekend, Jo. Strawberry picking sounds like fun...are they organic?
Irene, nice that George has taken off some time. Yay for pool time.
I'm getting my car serviced today...oil change, tire rotation, etc. Not fun, but necessary.
Tomorrow afternoon, we're going to see the florist set up another wedding. That should be fun.
I hope Roger is doing well. Maybe we'll get another note from Mike.
Anyway, have a good Friday, everyone.1 -
Good morning;
I am up early doing some housework, so I can have the rest of the weekend to myself.
Vix-have fun checking out the flowers. I am not sure if the strawberries are organic.
Irene-enjoy your pool time.
Enjoy your weekend.

god morning, Jo the strawberries sound yummy I love strawberries. Since I started eating the built bars for my afternoon snack my weight loss has started again between that and the treadmill so I am 1 happy person here. Vix looking at the flowers sounds like fun. We have no plans for today except hopefully we can get in the pool 1st day in a while that it hasn't rained. Jo enjoy your days off take care hope to hear from Roger or Mike soon.1

Good morning.
I need to get in a little exercise this morning, and maybe a nice hot soak. Maybe a little housework too.
Enjoy your long weekend, Jo. Good to get the housework out of the way to free up the rest of your time off. Have fun picking strawberries.
Irene, congrats on getting the weight loss going again...enjoy your relaxing weekend, and the pool.
Looking forward to this afternoon.
Happy Saturday, everyone.1 -
Heard from Mike today...Roger is in a bad way. He could use some extra prayers and healing thoughts. I think you are both getting the emails too, but just in case you haven't looked. I really hope he comes through this.1
