Woo, msbelle! That is so fabulous.

No knowledge here but lots of ~ma to your mother, ita !. Also, I enjoyed your priority rankings. Maybe I should employ a similar system.

Menu planning fail - I have everything I need for the yummy eggplant pasta dish I was going to make tonight... except the pasta. Hmm, maybe I'll go ahead and saute the eggplant tonight? That always seems to take longer than I think it will.

Congrats, msbelle!

Timelies all!

Yay msbelle!

So, I sent my cv to the appropriate admin person, who sent it out to various labs, and one of them is interested. I'm meeting with them on Thursday. Of course, I don't know if I'll want the position, and I'm not sure when I'd be available to start(our lab is nowhere near ready to shut down, and we have until at least the end of June to do so), but at least someone's interested.

All good ~ma to your mom, ita.

ETA: Good luck, Sheryl!

MSBELLE that is AWESOME! I am especially happy about the benefits part. Remind me again what this job is and what the commute is, etc?

ita, everyone else has chimed in but I still want to, as well. I hope it's a minor setback only and that your mom will be on the easy side of the hill soon.

'suela, is that contagious??? And I am sorry to hear that you and Sox have similar maladies. I sure hope you didn't trade them off last year at my house.

Allyson, I don't know if that red is your one true red, but it's purty!

Allyson, I love that cover.

WOOHOO MSBELLE!!!

ita, totally a judgement call by the doctor--depends on what the levels are and how much they've rebounded or not.

'suela, is that contagious??? And I am sorry to hear that you and Sox have similar maladies. I sure hope you didn't trade them off last year at my house.

No, to both. I've been struggling with sinus issues for a couple of years, it's just that the current level of annoyance just flared back up into ick. I'd just gotten over a bout before Christmas, too, and now I'm back on Aleve D.

Gonna text my brother and make him write the script he promised at Christmas and then forgot about.

Good luck, Sheryl!

Allyson, in the swatches beneath the picture the red looks closer to burgundy than true red. I can't tell which is the more reliable representation.

Oops. My sister asked me about race-blindness in TV, and I said I didn't have a wide range of things to talk about. And then I gave her the demographics of 18 shows, and their tendency to mention race and how it's dealt with.

I could do with another hobby.

I'll tell my mother to relax, relax, hydrate, eat properly, and listen to her docs. And not to get mad if she ends up having to spend the money.
