So, just got back from Holland last night...with a raging case of stomach flu (NOT a good thing to have on a 10-hour plus, nonstop flight...lol!).

The house in Holland is now secure, and ready for us to put our 6 months here/6 months there plan into place...don't know if or when, I still have my mother here, and she is not completely well.

Sadly, we returned to news that our one remaining cat has gone missing...sigh...

I thought many times about you all...but I was on VERY slow dialup computer access, so this site wouldn't even load correctly...

I send my hugs,

hugs, Kathi

    Welcome Home
    Welcome home, Kathi! I imagine your own bed, and perhaps your own bathroom were a particularly welcome sight!

    Glad things went well in Holland; sorry your mom is not well, but I trust all will fall into place as it should.

    Hopefully the cat will find its way back home to you as well!

    I will be in touch, as "rumor" has it you are having company from Washington starting tomorrow??? I am not sure if I can, but I am trying to find a way to meet up with the two of you~ it has been too long! I'll let you know!

    Take care of yourself! You'll need your energy! :-)

    Hugs,
    Claudia

    Welcome back! I saw your
    Welcome back! I saw your picture on your web page a long time ago when I first found this site. I saw your short hair, and thought, "How cute! How long! (compared to my bladness)" and lastly, "I can't wait till my hair looks like that." Tonight when I saw your picture next to your post and considered my hair, guess what? It looks like that! This may seem silly, but I have had this goal for many months and I am pretty emotional about it. Funny - the things we set as goals and the amazing amount of strength and meaning they can give us.
    Thanks for the picture! love, Joyce
    P.S. I am sure your hair is much longer now. That's okay - I need a new goal!

    We had to postpone...sigh...
    I ended up in the ER yesterday from dehydration from this darn flu!!! Nearly passed out at a client's, they bundled me up and took me to the hospital. Once there, the tests also found a slight heart problem, so they kept me a bit longer, and fully hydrated me (I am STILL peeing...lol!). All seems a bit better today, but I am still weak.

    As a result, I called Sharon and we decided to reschedule. I will keep you posted as to when...sorry for the false alarm!

    Hugs, Kathi

    ((((((((((((((((HUGS))))))))))))))))
    Dang girl~ when you make a grand entrance, you don't fool around, do you??? I am glad you have been rehydrated, and that you were back home to get to the Hospital. Not that there is anything wrong with a hospital in the Netherlands, the Hollanders would have taken great care of you I am sure. Just the same...I'm glad you are home~ and peeing!!

    Let me know whaen you and Sharon reschedule~ I really want to get together! Palm Springs, maybe? We can "take in the waters" at the Spa.....

    Hugs,
    Claudia
