    Company Gone
    Mom, sister, and brother in law left this morning. Had a busy week for them. Brother in law cooked good food, sister waited on me hand and foot and 82 year old mom just looked pretty, lol. Got spoiled for a week. Now husband has to pick back up and do the spoiling. Going to be lazy rest of weekend. Hopefully feel better soon, chemo week off next week. Hopefully get some energy back.
    Sandy :)

    That sounds like a great weekend, I was wondering where you were. Will you make apple pie?

    No Pie Lori :-(
    That was going to be Dylan's "job". He almost went to the CIA (Culinary Institute of America) but 6 months of working in a restaurant and cooking there sort of cured him of that which is fine with us. The hours stink and the pays not great unless you "make it". He makes an incredibly flaky crust and is a really good baker. It's apple pickin' time in the Lower Hudson Valley too but unless he wakes up motivated it will have to wait. He's a Geology Major right now but he's only a Freshman so it's certainly subject to change. He does really love it though so who knows.
    The Pot Roast has begun though, I was up at 6am....

    In other news, I went for a spin a week ago last Thursday...
    I Hydro-planed on the NY Thruway. I was only going about 50 (at the most) because it was raining. I had good tires all around but the car lifted and spun into the guardrail in a blink of an eye. I did a 360, managed to avoid other cars and they avoided me. Hit the front & rear, bumpers flew off, headlights flew off, I wound up facing the right direction in the shoulder of the fast lane with the car still running. I calmly got out of my car and picked the big pieces out of the way of traffic, removed my license plate from one bumper, inspected the car to see if it could be driven (it could) then got back in and drove home. People were very nice, one guy asked if I needed help and one lady offered me her umbrella. I've felt hydro-planing before but it has always been a slow drift. Oddly I was unscathed, not even a sore shoulder from my seatbelt.
    The car's totaled but luckily I'm not.

    I found a nice 2006 Subaru Forester that was well-maintained with good mileage at a good price so I should get that Monday...
    Like I often say, you never know what will happen. I guess I'm either not ready to "go" or not finished being tortured!

    Health and an enjoyable weekend to all. Prayers for those struggling.

    Thanks, Pepe. For me, it's
    Thanks, Pepe. For me, it's just a matter of getting through the weekend, what with surgery on Tuesday. I'm in my neurotic survival mode.

    But I'll get through...

    Wow, I'm glad your okay, I know thats scary. Here in Fl, Sarasota Fl, there was a 42 car pile up due to careless driving in the rain. If you google it I'm sure it will come up. I have hydro planned myself and was fortunate that no one was behind me. Theres nothing you can do but hold on. And yes your not ready to go.
