Who knew?? heh. At work the past few days, we have had a steady stream of Cincinnati peoples coming thru, and it was only the second day of it that I asked anything about it. The guy I asked seemed bemused about my not-knowing who the team was, etc. <br /><br />I mentioned it to Spouse who laughed and said, if they were going to NewOrleans, then they were a part of the SugarBowl today! So, yeah. There are all sorts of realities out there for folks to find!:-)<br /><br />Risa-- I caught the re-run of the Sligh-blogpost-discussion on The View the other day. I have always liked that Sherri Shepherd, and hearing Mariah Carey talking about fame and stuff after the segment, I thought it boostered some of the things Chris mentioned. I was glad I caught that show.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31810036.post-33273283273686867422010-01-01T20:14:09.231-05:002010-01-01T20:14:09.231-05:00Hey, guys, in case anyone feels inclined, our frie...Hey, guys, in case anyone feels inclined, our friend Lauren's webpage is www.caringbridge.org/visit/laurensetzler.

You made the decision that was best for your family and your mom. It's good that you go visit often. I'm sorry you didn't get to see Chris.<br /><br />Risa-Sorry to hear about the 24-year old daughter of your dear friend. I will keep her family and her in my prayers.<br /><br />Thanks to everyone for the kind words for Tony and his wife Christine and her family. There will be a short memorial and Celebration of Life on Sunday afternoon. Tony's ashes will be taken back to his native Hawaii.<br /><br />I wish everyone the best for 2010!<br />AmyAmy's Purple Poodleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14600225714012700362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31810036.post-48739644581513644152010-01-01T11:17:51.812-05:002010-01-01T11:17:51.812-05:00Happy New Years Day to my blogger girls and family...Happy New Years Day to my blogger girls and family.<br /><br />Football overload today and my famous Prime Rib chili..yum<br /><br />Oh, and go Ducks...Cathy Stormshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02581096318771432003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31810036.post-7893964948494982009-12-31T17:54:22.407-05:002009-12-31T17:54:22.407-05:00LOL, GDA, getting a decade ahead of myself aren...LOL, GDA, getting a decade ahead of myself aren't I???<br /> B<br />Happy New Year to all my dear Blogger Girls and Fro Friends and to the dude who brought all together, Chris and his family!<br /><br />May 2010 be our best year ever!<br /><br />Sending you love from a Fogged-in DJ in the TN mountains.DJ in ALhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10688855990272617413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31810036.post-64571532022926264942009-12-31T14:03:34.540-05:002009-12-31T14:03:34.540-05:00DJ,

The world sounds like it lost a good and caring soul. Maybe God has a plan for him, on the other side. <br /><br />Cathy-- I'm sorry to hear about your mother, but it sounds like she is very lucky to have found a good nursing home, and to have a daughter like you. I don't think she could want more, than that.:-)<br /><br />As for Risa's 24 yr old friend... gosh. I hope that this is something that she is able to beat, and that it will add to her a measure of grace and compassion she can then share with her therapy-patients, someday. There has to be a happy ending in this, somewhere. She will be in my thoughts.<br /><br />Chris--I heard HCG on the radio last night, and it sounds as good as the first time I heard it, to my ears. It's still, really beautiful. I hope it gets the acknowledgement it deserves, at the awards shows this spring.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31810036.post-32672981736786409562009-12-29T23:38:02.786-05:002009-12-29T23:38:02.786-05:00Amy, I'm so sorry to hear the loss of such a f...Amy, I'm so sorry to hear the loss of such a fine man. Cathy, you definitely are doing right by your mom. She needs to be where people are trained to take care of her health problems.<br /><br />I have a prayer request. The 24 year old daughter of some dear family friends has been diagnosed with leukemia, and is starting chemotherapy tomorrow. She is such a lovely and smart young lady....one semester away from graduating from physical therapy school. She faces 3-4 straight weeks of chemo treatment to begin with. I believe in the power of prayer and am asking y'all to include her on your prayer list. Thank you in advance.<br /><br />Chris, safe travels back from San Diego, if you're not already home.<br /><br />Risarisaleahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00754939096270758631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31810036.post-72855854773113452562009-12-29T18:46:40.590-05:002009-12-29T18:46:40.590-05:00Amy I'm very sorry to hear about your loss (&a...Amy I'm very sorry to hear about your loss (& your community's). All will be in my prayers.<br /><br />I stopped by my local Family Christian Store today and they had a stack of the various artist Christmas album, "When Love Was Born" for half off! The song of Chris' that is included is "When You Come Home Again" and it's the 5th of 15 tracks.<br /><br />They had a stack left. If anyone is having trouble finding it and would like it for their Sligh cd collection, let me know and I can try to go pick a few up and ship them off. (They're no longer available online).<br /><br />LoriHstryQThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13979990637763042578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31810036.post-85001373618938389662009-12-29T15:10:12.146-05:002009-12-29T15:10:12.146-05:00Amy -

...Amy -<br />I'm sorry for the loss of your friend. <br /><br />Cathy - <br />Harry's mom is in a nursing home. She voluntarily committed herself there last year because she couldn't take care of herself anymore at home, even with an aide. She likes the food and is content. We are also more at ease knowing that when she falls or gets sick, she will be taken care of and hospitalized, if needed. We visit regularly. You made the right decision, because professionals are probably needed for her at this time.rosaleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02008139855126202575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31810036.post-9016332985594727012009-12-29T11:50:13.338-05:002009-12-29T11:50:13.338-05:00Amy, So sorry to hear about your friend.

My mom had to be put in the hospital on Christmas morning with back pain. Turns out the bones in her lower back are totally gone and now she is in a nursing facility for the duration. There is nothing they can do for her and she will be in a wheel chair for the rest of her life and she can't stay alone. It's a very hard time for my family and for my mom. She's lived with me forever so it's taking some getting used to. I know in my heart we have made the right decision but it is still one of the hardest decisions I have ever had to make.<br /><br />Carmen, safe journeys for you and Chris today...Cathy Stormshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02581096318771432003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31810036.post-9649666761571886722009-12-29T00:23:51.210-05:002009-12-29T00:23:51.210-05:00Today I found out that a member of the ski group I...Today I found out that a member of the ski group I belong to passed away after falling through a hole where ice had cracked while ice fishing. He must have been alone because he was found dead a day later after crawling out of the hole-he froze to death. He was a local optomitrist who once guided blind and visually impaired skiers, his private optomitry practice was one of our sponsors, and he was an advocate for people with visual impairment and blindness in the community in which I live. His name was Tony Ikehara. He left behind a wife, Christine, and children. Please keep his wife and family in your prayers. This is a sad way to end 2009.<br /><br />AmyAmy's Purple Poodleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14600225714012700362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31810036.post-6718417511323869952009-12-27T21:27:14.975-05:002009-12-27T21:27:14.975-05:00Hope everyone had a great Christmas or Hannukah an...Hope everyone had a great Christmas or Hannukah and are enjoying your "Santa loot".
