I got my flu shot yesterday morning, I was on line at 7:15 am. Boy, was I achy last night, went to sleep early. Not sure if it was from the shot or from being tense, I hate needles!!!
Debbie, Good luck to Katie to at the doctor's visit.
Patsy, I'm glad you have rain boots, I ended up wearing my high top sneakers but I don't have far to walk; I carried my sandals.
Anna, Nice to hear good news, glad Jessica is OK. Yeah, best place to grow up in B'klyn, such a warm feeling talking about the holidays and living there.

EVERYONE, HAVE A GREAT DAY!!!

T.G.I.F.

Morning from very wet and windy Manhattan -

I woke about 3:30 this morning cause I thought my house was going to blow away! Between the wind and the heavy rain the noise was unbelievable. Oh well, I'll need a nap around 11!!

Happy Birthday Lisa and Joe! Wow 60 - when I was young I thought they were soooo old - now I'm not that far behind. How'd that happen??

Patsy I know you like to read - read The Kitchen House by Kathleen Grissom. It's about a young white girl who's raised by black slaves in Virginia in the 1800's. I'm almost to the end of it and wish it were longer. It's very good.

Terry you asked about the tickets and unfortunately I didn't get them. I keep checking to see about another discount. I'll keep you posted.

Everyone have a good day. Stay dry.

Later....

Hi Everyone:

Sorry I haven't posted in such a long time. But you can be sure I have been peeking in. My special kudos to Anthony - you are the one that is really keeping this board going. And I do enjoy the oldies you post. Keep up the good work.

Hope everyone is well. I will try to post more often. Just sort of a down mood lately. I've got to snap out of it.

P.S. I am really curious about Paul. Has anyone heard from him outside of this board? I hope he's o.k.

Take care and love to all, Barbara

Hi Guys,

Anthony - Sorry about your basement, that sucks, what a mess....

Barbara - Hi, good to see you on here, I think a lot of us are down in the dumps, summer went too fast and now all the craziness the next couple of months...we all need to hit the lottery....!!!

Happy Birthday to Joe and Lisa and Carol's daughter Christine....
