Hi Hap,

-> Back again, with the laundry changed out.

 hn> I got the veggies all chopped and in bowls
 hn> waiting for me to make dinner.
 hn> Will get to dishes after this message (grin)

We kind of picked at things for supper since we had a more complete mid
day meal.  I did the clean up before sitting down with the computer tho.

->  hn> It's not my cup of tea that's for sure!  I like
->  hn> Pineapple, but never with mayo...I like mayo
->  hn> (a bit) but never with pineapple!

-> But if I made this some time and you tried it, you might like it. (G)

 hn> I'd probably try it...but I make no promises! I like
 hn> my pineapple fresh and cut into spears best!

That is probably the best way to have it, especially if it's the low
acid type.  But, it adds something to the cole slaw, turns it into
something not so ordinary.

->  hn> Gonna do some Quilting?

-> Yes, I've got Sarah's Star Tracks cut out.  It's a rainbow of colors, 6
-> each in the Friendship Star and Duck Tracks blocks to be set 3 X 4,
-> alternating.  So far I've got 24 different fabrics in it, will probably
-> add one more for the baacking.  It'll be 36" by 48" when finished.

 hn> After she grows out of it, it may be
 hn> a beautiful wall hanging!


That's the plan.  It's a compliment to Robert's Rainbow--one that I made
for Robert when he was a baby. That had 14 different fabrics in it and
it was the same size.

 hn> I have my appointment with the surgeon
 hn> tomorrow...we'll probably set a sugery date
 hn> at that time, and I'll broach the right knee
 hn> into the conversation then. (grin)

Hope all went well.  I had some routine, follow on) appointments today,
getting established with the UNC oncolog department. I dropped a pound
in the last week.

->  hn> Well they say the rehab for that arthroscopic
->  hn> surgery is fairly quick and easy...I'll know more

-> Your right or left shoulder?  If it's your right, don't count on using a
-> kitchen knife much for the first few weeks.  If it's a rotator cuff, you
-> won't be able to do much at all initially.  Plan on learning how to stir
-> pots with your left hand (I'm presuming you are right handed.), buying

 hn> Right shoulder (and yes I'm right handed), and
 hn> yes I suspect it's the rotator cuff. Still have not
 hn> even hinted that to the surgeon yet.

Hopefully that's changed and she knows to schedule you for a 2'fer.


-> hn> I may need more duct tape!!

-> It's what holds America together according to Garrison Keillor.  We
-> heard part of Prairie Home Companion on Sunday afternoon, including a
-> comercial for Cafe Boeuf.  When we were at Fort Huachuca, we listened to

 hn> We used to listen to it every Saturday night, and
 hn> when Amanda went to College, she was only about
 hn> 5 miles from the theater where they produce the show.
 hn> But she never went...and we never did either on any
 hn> of our visits.


He came to HI while we were there but since we didn't financially
support the public radio station, we couldn't get tickets.  They only
offered to $upporters--probably would have gotten more if they'd made
seats available for not yet supporters.


 hn> Ah well, no Powder Milk biscuits for me!


Give me a slice of the rhubarb pie. (G)
