Well hi there =) You were wondering when I was going to drop by today weren't you? Figured I'd wait til the very end of the day so I could tell you all about it. Today was good Mom, the days working up to it...no so much, felt like someone was sitting on my chest for the last few days. Something about losing the love of your life on the love of your life's birthday, UGH! Made a little birthday tribute for the birthday girl. I worked on it for days and when I went to download it they wanted $150.00, UGH! My subscription ran out. Fortunately I had a different program on my laptop, time rushed me and it was no where near the quality of what I had originally made up... But it got finished in time for her happy birthday! Sooo, about today. I was working on the computer this morning. Jumped up to get some coffee. Grabbed your cup from the cupboard and as I was filling it up the clock said 8:18 ...yep yep, our sign =) and the BEST way to start my day! THANK YOU!! Tay had clinic today, she had kind of a rough night last night, pretty nauseous so before we headed out this morning I loaded her up with fluids, zofran, prednisone and tylenol. Must have worked cuz she giggled the rest of the day! I baked some fresh chocolate chip cookies before we left to take to clinic and she got lots and lots of happy birthday wishes! Her nurse even brought her a gift =) Her counts came back really good. Red cells are starting to falter...at this rate it'll be a few more weeks yet before she'll need blood. At least her neutrophils are holding strong! It was a pretty quick 3 hour visit and I even had a nice chat with the coffee lady. Also stopped by the gift shop. Every now and then I stroll through and something will jump out at me. Today it was a gift for a friend. She needs a smile or two or three. Hopefully this will do it. As I was waiting for valet to bring me my truck the attendant noticed my Cubs shirt. Seems he's also a Cubs fan and well...when one Cub fan meets another, conversation happens =) LOVE MY CUBBIES Mom, I could talk about them forever, but valet was pretty on top of things today so the 'talk' only lasted about 10 minutes. Speaking of they're playing your Tigers tonight. In the middle of a rain delay now, but your putting the hammer to us so I am **hoping** like heck it gets postponed and we can start a new game all over again!! The drive home was quite dramatic! I was getting on 131, accelerating...and my gas pedal stuck! Scariest driving experience I've ever had! I called Ford as soon as I got home. My truck isn't even a year old, that should NOT have happened. They were VERY concerned. Wanted me to bring it right in. Bry has a dentist appointment tomorrow so I'm dropping Tay off at Grams and then I'll take it in on my way to the dentist. They have another vehicle for me for the few days it may be there. But whew! Crap, ball game resumed, lol. I love you! Thanks for seeing me through another year of 'today'. I love and miss you!! (((((((HUGS)))))) *******KISSES******** PS. I have your flowers sitting right next to Tay's =)
