Tuesday was a long day. Posted my blog, took my computer into Turk in GP, headed to Costco..... Shopped until I dropped. Home to Ace to get a new battery for my photo viewer, got some kindling from Dave (thanks so much!!!) .. then to drop off Costco items Jeannie wanted and have a glass of wine. Yesterday I did nothing much ... some housework, fed Dave & PJ's fish, messed with this laptop, cooked..... My pals Jeannie and Bill have headed out for a few weeks in their motorhome. No snow on the summit. Should be nice weather all the way.


All I know. Nuff said. HAPPY VALENTINE's DAY! Ciao.

When Brian was born on Valentines day, it was ordained he be the love that he is to his family forever.

Florence Henderson- wow.

I so enjoyed seeing Brian's pictures and it was good to see your Italian son. He is handsome too. That picture of Florence looks like a painting. It was beautiful. Thanks for fixing things. MARIE V

Sue,

As always I look forward to your blog's, I loved your B-Day tribute to your son Brian, AND your Jerry, it had to be a match made in Heaven, I had tears of your memories, and stirring memories of my own life.
I miss seeing you at meetings, perhaps we can get together for lunch, or whatever someday, when our lives settle down. You know how to live life to the fullest and are so family orientated, and all your close friends !
Can I say more, oh yes you even have time for recipes and cooking ! AMAZING !!! ( since I'm not a creative cook ) This is a wonderful way to keep in touch----
Wishing you the best !
