two days down, one more to go!then, back into semi retirement with being mom and teacher.
(if you call that retirement).
So glad today is almost over....kind of had a rough afternoon. I had to go to the doctor with my mom about my walking problem that I have since I did get a hip surgery when I was 15..and it's bugging me. I'm just a bit depressed about what the doctor said to me, it's not what I really wanted to hear.![]()

Hi S.C.
Seems like it has been about five or six days since I came to this thread. We had a last minute trip that we put together from Friday to Monday, and yesterday was my recoop. day. Getting back into the swing of things.
Thank you. Sorry I didn't see that message yesterday. Something is wrong with my subscriptions since I am not getting all of the notifications when people respond.
But yes we are safe. The warning was cancelled yesterday before lunch time.It is scary to have that sort of warning since we live on an island, and we are not able to escape if something does happen.
