Good Morning Valerie Eleneke!
So yesterday was a semi-bust
The flower show was so busy
no one nice to children or women in wheelchairs
who is left to trust?
I did get a couple of ideas pertaining to my garden.
But that wasn't worth the price.
I could have read a book and gotten the same advice.
Lunch was good - Reading Terminal after you left was a place to grab a coffee and chat
while we waited for the Megabus to deliver our Brittany the brat (just kidding - it rhymed with chat).
Last night she finally got her soup! It was a Facebook plea that Doug took to heart.
Problem was the soup had beans so all we did last night was ____ (rhymes with heart lol)
Last night I picked up Troy
what a nice little boy
He's potty trained now
He doesn't need any help
he can do it all by himself
he knows how!
So today I hope you are doing some relaxing
After the fiasco at the Convention Center-
You better!

Good Morning Valerie Eleneke!
I hope your relaxing day was fun!
At the top of your list of things to do - what a minute
there should have been none!
Today you need to get outside for a while
Talk a walk - see if you can complete a mile.
The weather is classic
For March - it is down right FANTASTIC!

Another perfect day outside
High of 70 - you gotta get out in it
Inside is no where to hide
Rake some leaves
plan a garden plot
Somewhere for a Victory spot
Because you overcame this beast
A plot of pink flowers would be great
It is something you can do in the least

So did you take my advice?
Did your head get a tan?
That was yesterday's plan.
It was a gorgeous day
I hope you got to go out in it and play
The solar flares made the day extra hot
We had sporadic power outages whether we wanted them or not.
But whatever the cause of our warm weather
We'll take 70 degrees in March!
Just so you get a tan under your scarf

Well winter has returned!
Good thing for you
you don't need to worry about that cute head of yours getting burned
It is so chilly, a hat is where it's at.
Big warm comfy pjs or sweats
staying in and relaxing and keeping warm is best
I hope you have a fun filled day
Starting at 10 - Fairly Legal marathon on USA.

Oh Thank gosh it is Sunday
this past week cam straight from hell
I am so glad it's over and my Bailey's over ice last night
made me well.
I hope your day was spent relaxing and stress free
So today you are getting ready for church an hour early.
(after the fact - doh!)

OH! What an idiot I am!
It was a subconscious wish
to turn the clocks Back in time!
Springing forward means less sleep
and sleep is a favorite friend of mine
In fact what is my happiest day of the year?
Not Christmas (too stressful)
Not my birthday (too mournful)
No my happiest day of the year is when I can go to bed at 9
and biologically it's 10
I want to give a shout and yell hooray
because for me - sleep makes everything fine
Now that my apology for stupidity is done
I hope you and Paul had some fun!
After Church what did you do?
Hopefully relax because you have a big week to get through!

How did it feel to get out and about?
How was your lunch with our favorite never-married aunt?
Yesterday my swim class nearly killed me
After 15 minutes I was praying for a fire drill.
But thank God, I have an athlete's mentality
I had the will, the water yesterday - didn't kill.

Ninety six years ago today
JP was born
Thank God for that and for the spunk
of a 19 year old girl who thought he was a hunk
Because of their love, our mom came down from above
So enough of the sentimental crap!
He is up in heaven make them all laugh
Him and Gram are flirting up a bunch
That is how heaven works - it is just my hunch.
He is young and spry,
no gray hair or glasses,
having the angels fighting over him
that lucky guy.

So today is the day!
starting my seeds growing on this fine spring like day!
Did you figure out what herbs and plants you want in your planter box?
Just let me know so when the plants pop up, there won't be any shocks
Since you are home for a while, you can plan your NCAA brackets
But the games start today - so don't delay.
If Basketball isn't your thing - turn on USA at 10 for the Burn Notice Marathon
It should go until six, just in time for a dinner fix.
Whatever you do! I hope you have a stress-less day!
Because for the 1ST Thursday since November 10th you have a cancer treatment free day!

Another Friday arrives at our door
I wish I could have just a little bit more
Only 72 more days till we open the outdoor pools
I am so busy now, I don't even have time to drool
(in my sleep) I wake up with lists to do
I love my job, truly I do
I just wish for once sleep wasn't disturbed and my nightly
to do lists I could kick to the curb
BUT enough whining from me
How was your cancer treatment free day?
Did you get an appointment with a radiation doc so
you can find out what they have to say?

So I totally suck
Two 9AMs went by with out a call
I hope you got to sleep in with any luck.
There is no excuse for my stupidity
I was up and at 'em with serendipity
My head is foggy but that is no excuse
Your sister is turning out to be a big loser

Are you feeling any better?
Part of your symptoms
might be related to the weather!
When we were kids
you always got sick
with hay fever and stuffy head
it got so bad you were stuck in bed
That and your sucky periods every month
Made us want to get rid of all the girl stuff

The fact that Jim backed out of this weekend's visit is a blessing in disguise
Driving to NJ two times in one weekend is a drain in the gas can. I am not going to lie
The only bummer is the 31st I can not do. I have to stay behind and monitor the SVYMCA zoo
And poor Dougie pooh- a visit with Jim would have been the 4th thing for him to do.
A monthly visit with the family is the plan.
You should send it to all.
You should plan the occasional Saturday visit
so maybe Jim and Michele could make it down
Because the Gandy-Hobbins-Melvin-Eleneke-Cook Clan can make any frown turn upside down

Do you think me a jerk?
Did you do your homework?
Do you think me a bizotch?
Did you create a calendar to track our monthly visits?
Yesterday I was kind of on cloud nine
to know to God I had a direct line
The fact that you got ride of your period in November
Your monthly flow did surrender
Thank God for that!
It makes me want to jump and shout
And it isn't the direct line that all the shouting is about!
It's about the absence of cramps on a monthly basis!
Holy JAAASUUSS

How was lunch with Aunt Judy Walsh?
Did you fight over the bill or did you get to pay?
Both of you are hard headed Irish women
Did I ever tell you what Doug says?
He calls us Irish Potato heads!
I don't think we deserve that moniker
- but that is what he said!
He compares us to gram!
I tell him 'she was Italian man!
And you know his response - whatever!
Just like gram - oh man!

It's not even 9 AM and I am dealing with work!
That is life but I can hang
I know this job is for me,
and hopefully I'll be retiring
from the YMCA when I am 63
That seems like a good age to retire
but who knows, by the time we get there
due to many medical advances
we may no longer expire.
How was your shopping spree with mom?
Did you find all of the stuff you need?
So you can redecorate you back room?
Shopping and lunch with mom must have been a fun day indeed!

I am totally horrible sister!
Missing the past two days
totally got an earful from the mister!
Work got in the way on both days
brand new rotation at work
had me at the pool before it opened
New insurance co. demands
Into work - so I could command
Then a bunny breakfast on Sunday
had the kids all dressed up at the Y
Ham and eggs - we made just enough
so the staff didn't even get to try
Seeing Uncle George was a blast!
I hope I am that spry at 90 - if I last
Aunt Grace was really surprised
Dinner was good at Nunzio's Italian Restaurant
Now I feel lame with the gift card that I got!
There is now comparison to the Italian on my plate with
OG's regular slate
and now I am calling a few minutes late...

Today I had a major scare!
I lost a tot and couldn't find him anywhere
For 10 minutes we ran through the house
We searched high and low
looking in places small enough for a mouse
3 times we looked in my closet
behind old prom dresses the little guy hid
I was beginning to panic, ready to pop my lid
How did I lose a kid?

Today is a big day for both of us
You are on a trip to see Paul's friend from Hawaii
Last time your drove down south
you didn't even know you were sick
To have battled the beast and won!
I hope this trip to VA is extra special and fun
For me - it's BRUUUUUUUUUCCCE
Nothing is going to stop me from being on the clouds all day!
You'll have great weather for traveling and
I hope you and Paul can enjoy some time away
Make it a date and celebrate
The only thing that will piss me off is if you change your mind
and want to stay behind
No excuses sister of mine
your nails your head
they'll all be fine

So from pictures alone - it looks like we have had a good time
How was the drive?
Did you get to Shehnaz's and take a nap?
I am proud of you - you did something that must have been hard
All that driving in the car
Sleeping in a strange bed
worrying about your nails and your head
I am proud of you Val Babe!

Oh my gosh do I feel old
A night of Bruce
A day in the cold
Today I feel like I am 75 years old
Bruce was totally cool!
I danced around like a little fool
Fist pumping in the air
Like I didn't have a care
How was YOUR show?
Sorry I didn't get to call yesterday
I was at a workshop -outside in the freezing cold
came home and slept till 6:30 PM
Awoken by CC - you have Yoga I was told
UGH! "I just want to sleep"
Came her reply - but you will feel refreshed
I came home & by 8:30 was fast asleep slept till 7 AM
I felt blessed
But two hours later I feel like a mess
