Totally SKimming -
1. I cannot log in on my Dad's computer as Sandy321 - really... I've tried... I gave up and can be eeyore again - "thanks for noticing me"
2. Ran that Half Marathon in Chicago Last Sunday. Nearly killed me! If not for the WISH team, I would've sat down until a medic came and took me to the finish line, I am NOT kidding. My ankle pain was too much, but gosh darn it i wanted the medal!! I ran 6 miles with a WISH team mate, and talked, I've never been able to keep up with someone and carry on a conversation. Hate that I broke down at the end. Altho it is quite comical now. FDIL did too, we were at teh hotel and just LOL at us - from a chair to the bathroom, to the bed, every hour we'd move to a bed, chair - every hour limping and whining and in pain!! LOL
3. Dogs were "repossesed" by a possessed extremist owner of the Shelter - I was having nightmares of Ellen Degeneres.... really!! SHE called and threatened me with the POLICE if I didnt return both dogs in 15 min. It was horrible. The male dog bit my son and my dh one too many times while I was in Chicago, so my son went to return him, and they FREAKED, either keep both dogs, or return BOTH dogs, its not in the contract I signed, but you cant win with some organizations and besides I had to go to the lake.
4. The lake, I"m at my mom and Dad's lake cottage, with ds and fdil and dd, its a mess. The shower is set for Sat, about 25 people have RSVP'd and my mom is toxic. I hate when she screams at me, yells, and tells me to shut up and slaps me!! My offense? I was trying to comment on John and Kate + 8 - some of the "things" about Kate, well that was just wrong of me!! When mom finally finished her point, and dd and I went to bed (and the lecture included false facts about insemmination, and abortion btw!) dd commented "well that was an interesting lecture". Prayers will be welcomed.
and of course, as I skimmed and read, I do stop, and bow my head in prayer!! adding "HUGS" and love!!
(DH is on his Boy Scout Adult leader training - he just had to take one of the Staff to the hospital, apparantly he reached under another staffers knife to get a potato to chop - who knew a knife could cut?!! *duh)

, Pixie Dust 
, and Prayers 
your way. I am so PROUD of you finishing. I read your report over on the WISH board. You DID it! That's what counts. I always tell myself that I am better than the folks that are still at home in bed or on their couches watching TV. 
Sorry you had to give up both dogs, but it sounds like your "little man" had issues. Hey, I'm starting to think about the half in 2010. Trying to figure out how I can swing that. 
Both of your options for a close-ish girls trip sound pretty fun. I thought of one other possiblity, but I'm not sure how far it would be. What about going to Dresden, Ohio where they make Longaberger baskets? There are some nice B&Bs there and interesting shopping opportunities.
Can they transplant a portion of an adult's liver or does it have to be from a child?
CONGRATS on your race, though!!! 
Hope the shower goes well.
