Hey there, Sassy ladies! I'm liking the daily new eye candy on this thread - Keep it up, Judi! Only I think we will have to ditch Jerry - I am beginning to wonder if he's a dirty old man.

A cheerful, friendly dirty old man.
Becca - I forgot to congratulate Brendan and Justin on their swims Thursday night! Way to go, fellas! Barney wants to know what Brendan was swimming, and BamBam is glad that Justin is on his wavelength, thinking about how to get across the pool

!
Bonnie - did you survive the day with all of the absent teachers? Have a blast at Great Wolf Lodge - it's the perfect weekend for it as it will be so hot and miserable. We were thinking about going to Busch Gardens on Sunday, but I think it will be too hot.
Heather - I agree with your mama, don't borrow trouble. Would you like me to talk to my Ped. Nurse Practitioner friend and try to get info? It sounds like it's not a common problem so I don't know if she's seen it before but I can ask. It seems from the reading I have been doing that even if it is the problem they suspect, that it can be treated with supplements and diet. Hugs to you, my dear!
Judi - isn't tough love fun? Glad she ate the egg! How are the hospice nurses? Where do you find all of those man pictures, or are they all friends of yours?
Angie - what have you been reading in your tv-less state? I must say, I am quite addicted to my reality tv as well. Mr. FofP started it, so I will blame him. Does Mr. Angie watch the shows as well? I am considering watching that Greatest American Dog thing. What about you?
Tricia - do you miss Kendall already? Do you think she will write you a letter? I always have to send Barney with a SASE or there is no hope in getting a letter. I wonder if I will have to do such things when he's in college.
Hi Granny, Shannon, Kimmy, and Julie! Any big weekend plans?
We blew off swim BamBam's swim practice today and went to the zoo in Richmond instead. It was hot, but a lot of fun. They have giraffes and camels that you can feed and there are a lot of monkeys. One monkey in particular was having a fine time with his private parts, the sight of which turned Barney's ears red. But, he was an excellent acrobat (which I am sure the female monkeys appreciate) and a fantastic sense of humor so I guess we can overlook his side activities. Then tonight we had the annual pool party for the team which was really a lot of fun. The kids get so excited just to be swimming at night - what is it about swimming at night? Feels decadent, I guess. I used to love it when I was a kid.
Holy crap, there are only 3 months until I turn 40. Foo. Mental note - throw out all calendars asap.
Happy Saturday to all, and to all a good night!
