Ärende: back to school                                           [2]
====================================================================
Hi Hap,

-> here at school but that was before I decided to take classes and sew for
-> others. Somehow, I didn't think I'd be quite this busy tho.

 HN> You're not the sort to just sit and watch
 HN> TV...and keeping active is better than that
 HN> in any case!

Got that down! This morning, knowing I wanted to do curry for supper &
that we were going to visit friends (She's laid up from hip surgey.) in
the afternoon, I got going on it. Cooked the beef & onion mix, then
added the potatoes & cooked them until just short of tender. All I had
to do when we got home was reheat & thicken it, reheat some rice and
heat a can of peas & paneer cheese. Got that on close out at Lowe's last
week; going there tomorrow & see if more are available. Steve tried out
the tortilla press we got a while ago--tortillas were somewhat on the
thick side but made a good substitute for naan.

I've also got my sewing room mostly all cleaned up and stowed; now I can
start on some long awaited projects that had been put off for various
reasons. I'll resume work with Santa this spring but in the meantime,
hope to have a lot of my back projects finished off.  My classes resume
January 26; Steve's do on the 23rd.


->  HN> her radiation treatment, doctors appointments
->  HN> and labworks every afternoon.
->  HN> so far it's working.

-> First week down. Keep feeding her good; she needs to keep her strength
-> up. We finished each week of radiation with a celebratory meal out. The
-> last treatment had a bigger celebration--supper out followed by a
-> Mannheim Steamroller concert. BTW, I got a certificate of "graduation"
-> when I finished my treatments, anything like that for Anne?

 HN> She got one from Chemo..still a ways
 HN> yet to go with the radiation. Took her
 HN> out to dinner last night as she was
 HN> very hungry and I had been too busy
 HN> myself all day to have anything prepped.

Probably felt good for both of you to be out on a date. (G)

 HN> The Mariners are expected to be one of
 HN> the prime bidders for Prince Fielder..so

Do they have the cash or will they have to trade off a big salaried
player to get him? Ichiro Suzuki was part of a Jeopardy clue earlier
this week, in a motorcycle category.


 HN> there's lots of speculation and "gossip"
 HN> about those developments but I'm not
 HN> convinced that's the right way to go for
 HN> the future...but they seldom (well ok,
 HN> NEVER) ask for my input!

Do you think they would honestly consider your opinion? If you had some
weight behind it, as in successfully predicting who would do well on the
team, maybe they would ask you. Nice to think they would but I wouldn't
hold my breath waiting for them to call. You'ld turn all shades of blue;
I doubt Anne would appreciate that. (G)
