July 14

Hi Sistahs,

Seems I'm the only guy to stick around. What's up with that?:eek

I'm gearing up for a second test of will tonight. A close family friend is back intown after a long holiday and will be taking us to dinner. He's a very generous person and likes to splurge on fine food and of course fine wines at restaurants. I'm looking forward to seeing him and having a great dinner but am of course feeling edgy already (in the am) about not having any vino.

I know I'll make it through just fine even though he's one of my favorite drinking buddies. He's the kind of friend who'll be very supportive of my new life and will probably even order and drink less in my presence. I'll go armed with some extra L-glut to take if needed and I'll enjoy the dinner and company no matter what.

Just wanted to get that off my chest and move on. Thanks for all your support abster friends.

Loved the Helen Keller quote!

How did we all get so lucky to be here with Dr. CV and gracious big sister Brigid?

'Morning stainers,

Day 38 out of 39 here. 38 smiley faces, Gabby. Now drop and give me 39!

Susan, I'm sure you'll miss your friend. You just never know how much someone will impact life. Every time you look at those beans growing, you'll be reminded of all those life's lessons he shared with you...

This must be one of those days for unusual posts because my Grandmother passed away last night too. She exited this world with the same class and dignity she lived in this world with... At 95 years old, mentally sharp as a tack and a devout Christian, she simply went to sleep. By now she's prolly blissfully strolling arm in arm down golden streets with her lovely Lord. Good for you, Granny!

HAPPY - FOR GRANNY'S NEWEST ADVENTURE - NOT HUNGOVER FRIDAY Y'ALL!

For Jane

Dear Jane,
so sorry to hear that your grandmother passed on. Yes,
she is probably having an intense chat with the big G.
Perhaps you can dig out some of your old photos this weekend in rememberance.
Love Lori: c

Re: For Jane

Lori,

It's weird, but just like Susans beans... My daughter recently found a copy of a poem that I'd written to my Grandmother back in 1993! So, it was actually sitting on my desk when I got the call.

I'll miss her. But she's got BETTER things to do now...
