======================
Hiya Ruth!
-> 
-> -> Except for the opportune bronchitis bug that snuck in earlier this
-> -> week--and is now being treated.  Saw the ortho doctor today & got the
-> -> stiches out.  No more crutches but a cam walker (progressing as I can 
to
-> -> regular shoes) and cane.
-> 
->  hn> chicken soup!
-> 
-> A bit of this and that, taking it easy, trying to get lots of rest and
-> fluids, letting Steve fuss over me...........
-> 
Well you knew he was gonna do that anyway! I'll be making chicken soup 
later this week! Today is pork roast, tomorrow is valentines day so I'm not 
sure what special dish I'll make for Anne. I'm thinking teriaki beef and rice, 
she likes that!

-> ->  hn> don't know where your family is!
-> 
-> -> I know; that's why we left notes quite often, more so after both girls
-> -> were gone.  Made it a bit easier after I got a cell phone; he called
-> -> once when he'd forgotten about a meeting I had.
-> 
->  hn> It's nice now, I sleep at night like "regular" folks (grin), but at
->  hn> times my body
->  hn> still wants to revert to that old pattern!
-> 
-> Give it time; you've been retired what, 2 years?
-> 
It will be three years in April...and still at times my body wants to revert
back 
to the old patterns! 

-> -> some of our church folks gently teased us about that. Tho at times, I
-> -> think if were a believer in reincarnation, I must have been a southerner
-> -> in the 1850s-60s time frame.
-> 
->  hn> I think I was 6 or 7 before I learned that ****yankee was two words
->  hn> (grin)!
-> 
-> Seeing it in print?
-> 
Nope, if I remember correctly I used it in school and got "corrected" by the 
teacher (grin).

-> -> -> were relatively near civilisation and could get your hunger pangs
-> -> -> satisfied quickly once you decided to.
-> 
-> ->  hn> Which is why I didn't have my photovest on at the  time.
-> 
-> -> Yes; I've been using my hipsack more often the last week or so; these
-> -> sweats don't have pockets.  Can't sneak a piece of candy easily. (G)
-> 
->  hn> Chocolate?
-> 
-> What else? (G)
-> 
(grin) Anne is the same way!

-> -> I know; I meant as in he didn't have to go out and get anything special
-> -> for the date on the calendar.  We're having a sweetheart banquet at
-> -> church on the 17th which looks like it'll be fun from the "promos" being
-> -> done in the morning worship time.
-> 
->  hn> I got Annie a digital camera (point and shoot basically) for
->  hn> Valentines day...but Fed Ex seems to have lost it (I've gotten them to
->  hn> start a tracer on it) so I'll go get some nice chocolate truffles for
->  hn> her till it gets here!
-> 
-> Sounds like a winner to me!
-> 
Just got off the phone with FedeX...the package got mistakenly shipped to 
Willmington CT and now it's on a truck headed back west...but it certainly 
won't get here in time for valentines day...and I uhhhh experessed my 
extreme displeasure with fed ex for their poor customer service...and after my 
prompting, the decided that they'd refund my shipping charges...now all I 
have to do is convince the seller where I bought the camera that they in  
turn should refund that to me as they charged me for shipping fees. 
chat with you soon
