No Alen, no Simon. He is being much nicer these days. Still a lot of fun in his kittenish awkward ways, as he falls all over himself. But you can pick him up now and he purrs like an ouboard motor. Now if we could just get him to use the litterbox. Sara and he play all the time, which is good for her, she was getting a little chubby and they both have their night time sleep spots in our bed. So cute.

When ever you get there, YLGuy!!!!    I have just boxed myself up and am at the post office. How do you think I will do for 3 days in a box?  Someone open it up, so I can breath!!

I just got back from Virginia (granddaughter's graduation) and I would love to attend.  I live in San Diego so the meet is just up the street (read freeway) from me.

I am a stranger here because I have not posted hardly at all.  But if you let me know where this shing-ding is taking place I will be there.  And will bring something good to eat, or drink.  W
hatever is needed.  Or paper stuff.

Renal wife,  that would be great if you can be there.  How exciting!  The party just keeps getting bigger.   The rest of us will need to see lots of pictures.     Have a wonderful time!   :2thumbsup;

Ummm, Paris, I don't think the post office will let you mail yourself to California. They told me I had to use this thing called an airplane to go across the states!

I would love to see you there!

But how do I get to know the location of the meet?  I have an idea:  I will look up my profile and if there is a space where I can post my e-mail address and/or cell phone, will do it there.  You can get in  touch with me either on this forum, e-mail or phone.

Renalwife, we will make sure you get the info by tomorrow.    I am in North Carolina, otherwise, I would be right there with you all.

It's hard for me to believe that in less than 24 hours, this will all be history. Unfortunately, Sluff and Okarol could not come. But, hey, life does throw up its roadblocks to us( boy, thats no news is it? ) I am sure we are going to have a great time and with any kind of luck, by this time tomorrow, you will all have pictures of us!!!

I am sorry too Kit. She did say she would try but with 33 accounts to get done by Sunday night, I dont see how she could do it. Did I mention that Paris sent us some wonderful gifts to raffle off and some candy for everyone? What a girl she is, huh?

I am so mad I could spit nails.  Well, I would if I felt better.  Yup, woke up with a sore throat, slight elevation in temperature and a very unhappy tummy, all the signs and symptoms of a cold.  I love you all and don't want to be sharing my nasty germs with you (cuz you know I'm gonna want to get huggy and kissy).  Please take lots of pictures and occasionally think of me   :'(

OMG guys, we had the best time!!!! We had Kit, Marc, Bob and I, Renal Wife and her hubby and 3 girls from my mobile home park. Marc let them all feel his" thrill" and they were truly amazed, as was I. Kit showed us her scar from her surgery. With only 9 people, it was so cozy and intimate and every one got to talk and ask questions. I am so grateful to Kit and to Paris for the raffle gifts, every one loved them. thanks so much to Marc and Patty and every one for sharing all of their knowledge with my 3 friends. They were flabbergasted and now are going to try and take hold of this disease. I will do my best to post pictures today. My one friend said, do you do this every year? I told her, well, we could. so guess what, we probably will!!!
