Ok - I am ALL caught up on everyone. Whew - since this is my first foray into the DIS message boards, I have to ask.... are we the CHATTIEST group that is currently active. Holey-moley!! We love us some chitter-chatter!

Today I am feeling better

and getting ready for my trip out to Chicago (via train.... whoa....). Should be a lot of fun. I am going for the Pampered Chef National Confernce, however all I can think about is all the fun things to do in Chicago - White Sox game, Magnificent Mile shopping, Sears Tower.... don't know how much of the conference I will actually see!!
Dave's dad is doing better (I think...) He was moved out of ICU and into a normal room - still waiting for infeciton to go away so they can do surgery, but they are going to fix ONE of the things first and hope the others correct with that one. Doctors are amazing I must say. Thanks for all the prayers and thoughts!
Dave is calling me to bed, so I better go. I do have some more packing to do, but that can wait.... (laundry still going).
TTFN!
