Good Morning!

MICHAEL: Congrats on First! The video is disabled..I'm going over to YouTube to watch..bbiab..

Zona said...

MICHAEL: Well that's a sad/nice story..I'm not sure I understand everyone signing though..that kind of threw me. It's sweet..unusual..but sweet. At least he knows how much they care about him..I think that's important.

I'm kinda bleary this morning..up too late..awake too early..not sure why either. If I figure that out..I'll be sure to let you know..lol..

Have a good Saturday everyone!

Good Morning Michael - Congrats on being first. The video is disabled so I will have to wait until after breakfast to find out what made you cry.

Good Morning Zona - I am bleary too. I am trying to perk up because we are going Valentine shopping this morning. It is still dark but I hope it is a sunny day like yesterday. It was lovely here.
Will write you later.

Have a great Saturday everyone.

Michael - Finally had a chance to view the video. It was so touching. It made me cry too. That ALS is such a wicket disease. There is always controversy here if someone gets to the point where they can't do anything and would like someone to help end his/her life. We have lawyers here who went to jail because they helped Sue Rodriquez end it all. It is still in the B.C. courts.

We decided for a variety of reasons to postpone our shopping trip. The sun is shining beautifully so we may take the dogs for a walk and ride my scooter, the first time in a while. That should be fun.

Michael Well, thanks for making me cry! I already feel like crap. I slept until after 12:30 and my uvula (sp) is so swollen I feel like I'm choking. Hot coffee feels good in my throat, though. As for your avatar....Yikes! You look a little bloated. lol

Zona I liked the idea of them signing the casket and expressing their love and gratitude. It's symbolic those feelings will stay with him forever, even after this lifetime.

Just_Lin said...

Tinka It's a beautiful day here, too. I wish I felt better. It's not an easy day. My son and I are both sick and the grandkids are here.

Just_Lin - I hope you feel better soon. Our grandkids are sick so I hope Jack doesn't catch something from Kevin. This is the time of year for it. ((((Hugs))))

Shirley: time to hand out r suits again-- too many germs floating around

Good job on being first today , Michael. I ha ent checked out the blog yet but will soon. It already sounds sad.

Tink, did u go for that scooter ride? Sounds like a nice day for it.

Zona---take a little nap. I already did and I hadn't been up very long. I guess that's what being snowed in does to you.

We will venture out tomorrow to my nephews for a super bowl party. At least we r in a townhouse and the HOA tales care of the plowing.

JL- I hope u and ur son get better soon and that the kids stay well. No hugging grandma.

Just_Lin said...

I made some homemade chicken noodle soup so maybe that will be our miracle cure. One can always hope.

Just_Lin said...

Dianne The kids were the ones sick last weekend so I think they gave it to me. So many people are sick with flu and colds right now. : (

Belles uvula was swollen when she was in heat...

It only took a week or two for it to get back to normal...

Just_Lin said...

LOL Michael I think you're thinking of something else.
