Ärende: RE: Flat Stanley
========================
Hey Ruth!
-> 
-> -> Timmy's class started in September so the various Stanleys could travel
-> -> to several places thru the school year.  I know his went to New Jersey
-> 
->  hn> I'll have to remember to ask Anne if they are or not!
-> 
-> Does she share his adventures with you?

I get regaled daily about events in the classroom...and I asked...no Flat 
Stanley this year.
-> 
-> -> Yes, at least you're not too far from your girl.  We're almost as far as
-> -> we were when we were in HI.
-> 
->  hn> It IS wonderful to have her in the same time zone! And only a day's
->  hn> drive away in case of emergencies!
-> 
-> That is good!  We had to hop a red eye from Honolulu on 05 to get to AZ.
-> But, David got tickets for the 3 of them to come east for spring break;
-> we'll meet them in Nashville.
-> 
It's very good! And a source of peace of mind that we are really only and 
hour and a half away by air!
-> 
-> ->  hn> out and bought her some neopreme chest waders for doing her
->  hn> research
-> ->  hn> work out on the mudflats and we found the "perfect" pair on sale 
for
-> ->  hn> $70 (normally $170!!!) Today she's having one of her good friends
-> 
-> -> Sounds good.  We got new chairs for the computer desks (after my 
chair
-> -> had a problem) and some plastic mats to go over the carpeting, allowing
-> -> the chairs to roll easier.  We also got a couple of the mats for my
-> -> sewing room. (G) I also found my pepper vinegar at Kroger's the other
-> -> night; it tasted good on last night's collard greens.
-> 
->  hn> I have my black eyed peas and ham hocks ready for new years 
morning.
->  hn> Caviar and Champagne for new year's eve!
-> 
-> Cheese & crackers, plus plenty of liquids and antibiotics for me for New
-> Year' eve.  Hasn't been much solid food today either.

Not feeling well again? You've had a rough year...let's hope this new year will

be much more healthy for you!
-> 
-> ->  hn> High School over and they are going to watch movies and giggle a 
lot
-> ->  hn> (grin) so I'm planning on making a fun "buffet" for them (and us I
-> ->  hn> suppose) to enjoy throughout the day. It's a lot of fun having her
-> ->  hn> around for a bit!
-> 
-> -> Enjoy her while you can, giggles & all.
-> 
I did! We just got back from driving her down to Portland Oregon to catch a 
flight back to Sacramento, so we are "just the two of us again" and while I 
love my little girl, it's nice to have the house to ourselves again (grin)

->  hn> Oh we certainly are! Even the quiet moments just sitting and chatting
->  hn> are very enjoyable! I'll be sad to see her go on Tuesday...but it will
->  hn> be nice to get back to our routine too!
-> 
-> I understand.  Steve goes back on the regular schedule on Wed.  By then
-> I'll be feeling good enough I'll be glad to see him go but now I'm
-> enjoying his taking care of me and the house.
-> 
->  hn> Happy New Year!
-> 
-> And you also.
-> 
Anne goes back tomorrow....and I go back to my chores and errands (grin)
chat with you soon
