Today's Meme:none this week...
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Yesterday was fun. Cheryl wasn't feeling so good, but she made it through the whole day at work and I am so proud of her! She got her raise! She is my rock when I start to fall apart. She's amazing. Today she has minor foot surgery, so please keep her in your thoughts. update:10:05AM appointment rescheduled because of snow.
Think..."NO SNOW"... it might help ^_^

Today's Meme: Thursday Three
1. Who is your best friend and why? Kevin... he is my soul mate... he is the love of my life... we are matched for life.
2. Who is your best online friend and why? I don't have a "best" friend online... I have many friends, but none are more precious to me than the others... they are all precious to me! ^_^
3. Are they both very different or alike? very different, by virtue of the face that Kevin and I have known eachother for 30+ yrs.

Today's Meme:#18. LULU'S LINES
TRIGGER 1::: Around the corner....... and down the street is a lady. She is kind and very helpful. She has no one to care for her, so we visit as often as possible. She’s a dear… She’s getting old… we should get her phone number so we can call often…

TRIGGER 2::: I was in awe……. The first time I laid eyes on my baby boy…long legs and arms that reached out from a skinny little body… our eyes met, and I knew he was … going to be a handful!

Today's Meme: Monday Madness
1. How many memes do you participate in regularly? If they are all up, I think 7.
2. How do you decide which memes you participate in? The ones that "strike my fancy".
3. Do you run one of your own meme? No... I'm not that creative.
If so, please leave your link! If not, have you thought of running your own? Yes, once... but then I looked at how much work was involved and how little time I have on the computer these days.
4. Is there a certain day of the week that works better for you to answer memes than others? Every day is a good day ^_^

Yesterday was another wonderful day here. I enjoyed our weekly trip to Borders. We took Cheryl with and she got her Christmas Cards(Hello Kitty ones, don't ya know!)
Kevin worked on little projects around the house. We are blessed, even if we don't have a lot of money this year for Christmas. Love is what Christmas is about anyways, right?
