Nothing much going on for me today! Just getting stuff together to head up north tomorrow morning. My grandson is bouncing off the wall about going to Chicago. He calls it his Chicago because we are going to the area he likes( He loves the downtown Area because of the buildings) and when I remind him we are going to my Chicago which is really Downers Grove he gives me a frown! Oh well his day is Wed mine is Thursday and then we will head home Friday! When we leave I drive him abit downtown just to make him happy. We will be taking the train so we can really enjoy the sights before school starts. Yeasterday was my 31 wedding anniversery! He was in Houston,Tx and I was in Illinois. So to celebrate I went and had a baby chocolate icecream cone. Ate the icecream throught the cone away. He went and had a doughnut and coffee. Wow we really can celebrate can't we! All kidding aside it really was a great day. So Ill check back in later and maybe while I am gone if I find time. Christina glad you had a great time on vacation! Lucy hope you get some needed sleep today! Karen

Present and accounted for

! Lucy, maybe your headache and pain was from being hungry? I'm glad it went away. I agree, it's nice to be at work when nobody is there. I go for my 3rd fill on Thursday. I'm pretty sure it was Dr. G. *****leased me the day after my surgery. WOW... on Monday, it will be 3 months out for me, too. Tonight I'm going for a massage, my lower back pain has been flaring up and going down my leg. I've got a call in to my pain doctor about that, I had that minor car accident (not my fault) last Wednesday so I don't know if this is related...I get this same thing every so often so who knows? You know what's awesome...Grilled chicken breast that's been marinated and cooked so it's really tender, that's what I've had the last couple of days. I buy the Greek yogurt, sometimes mix it with flavored yogurt, and that is good to lend some moisture along with all the other benefits of yogurt. So, yeah, I'm a broken record but I need to get on that recumbant bike at home since it's too hot and humid to walk the dogs very far....also I just ordered a couple of dvd's based on belly dancing/Bollywood-Indian dancing. It looks like they have some "10 minute" sessions so I really should have NO excuse not to exercise. And to think I used to go to Karate 3 times a week for several years and was strong like bull!!

Congratulations on your anniversary, Karen. We had our 25th this past March. Have a great rest of the day, everyone!

Good evening Lucy and the rest of Illinois! I am back from a very nice, relaxing vacation in the U.P. We had a great time and the weather was gorgeous! No humidity and between 75 and 83, sunny the whole time! We swam, went to an international food festival, the kids jumped off of a cliff into Lake Superior and we all climbed Sugarloaf Mountain! The veiws from the top of the mountain were breath-taking! 2 years ago, I NEVER would have made it. It was definately an NSV! Now......we have to unpack, do laundry and gt back to work in the morning. Oh well......that kind of stuff can't last forever (at least not until we win the lottery!) lol I'd better get moving, just wanted to check in.......

Tell someone that you love them!

Hi Dawn, We took a weekend trip to the UP last year, but only as far as just over the bridge...on the banks of Lake Huron. I agree, soooo beautiful. We decided to really go and have a vacation there one day. Of course we had to hit a souvenier shop to get a YOOPER shirt.
