photos/follow me to Orlando ! /Baby due...

January 30
I have been desperately trying to post more photos-
need some good advice- anyone?
I guess what I have done has been hit or miss !?
I think I put the file name in the right place- but it won't go....

Happy Birthday to our niece, JGW, ... on 2/2........with hugs and lots of love.

It is calming to have free time this morning...having taken some vicodin to ease the pain in left arm....and back into the old habit of exchanging monday "moanin' " e mails ..

We have not yet heard any news on Jill Carroll -
Unless,until she is released- we won't be hearing anything ...
Our only real news is that grandchild #2 is due early April- not May - someone was 4 weeks off in the "count" *_*
Weather -wise, this is the first winter I have NOT spent fantasizing about being somewhere warm.....unseasonably warm this year. or perhaps just resigned to the idea that we won't be traveling anytime soon.
I do plan to be in Orlando, Florida the 3rd weekend of October for the 9th Annual Thyroid Cancer Survivors' Conference. I hope to stay Thursday through monday or Tuesday.
I invite anyone- everyone who may want to meet me there....
as soon as I have hotel info- I will put it here.
I plan to attend the dinner/ auction on Friday evening and some of the Conference sessions- but will have plenty of free time to sit in the sun and visit.
info available at www.thyca.org
The 4th weekend in August we plan to be in Buffalo, NY to celebrate Erika's marriage to John.
JVB is doing much better- in Midland TX- but is lonely for his friends.
Ruby B is also planning a wedding this year! to Joe ( formerly know as "Jobless Joe"-but has since found employment *_* ) Our Congrats to both couples.


The Chinese Year of the Dog- (Now through feb 7 2007) is most propitious for weddings.
according to an article in the X yesterday.

Hope to hear from you soon.....
~~enjoy your day

Jill Carroll

Mary Ann Carroll, Jill's mom, taught a Humanities class at Plymouth Salem high school-
all 3 of our children took her course; we met Mrs Carroll.
This class was one of the most popular - a 2 semester study of western civilization.
History, culture and literature.
We know Jill was raised by a family with our same values and priorities.
Compassion, understanding and tolerance was the base of the course
and the path Jill was taught to follow.
Let us come together with all thoughts to bringing this young woman home.
She is one of our daughters.
go to the Christian Science Monitor for updates.
