buy it though.

[djAdvocate]

well done, everyone. you beat the Bench.

i am really worried about KD.

[kadee79]

Well, congrats to all 3 of you guys.  I goofed again....I could have sworn I posted a pic for the week...but that's ok, it wound up being in the basement...again.

I'm fine!  Just have had lots of  medical appts. for both me & DH and trying to keep up with all of those is a major headache.  They have discovered gall stones in DH, so more meds for that.  They aren't bad enough to operate yet.  And he has also started going to a local pain clinic for his back pain...but not relief as yet there either.

I've been doing a lot of reading, just got tired of all the garbage about politics.  It's the same things over & over and the stupid ones are still stupid!

I have gotten new hearing aids recently and that has been part of what has kept me off...getting used to them.  We may finally have them fine tuned so now I can hear when DH mumbles under his breath....he has to be more careful now! LOL!!!

[clarkrl2]

kadee78 I'm glad you're OK.
