As Penny Powers was saying to Wendy Apgar:
 PP> Well nice people are always missed.... BTW what is your address
 PP> again... and do you have a phone.... I put together some stuff for
 PP> you and now I can't find it.... I thought you probably need
 PP> something to keep your self quiet but busy.
 
 My address is: Wendy Apgar, 16016 SE Division #327, Portland
 OR 97236.  If you want to e-mail me at wendy@zzz.com I will
 give you my phone number.
 PP> Yes miscrowaves are great inventions.... I still don't have one...
 PP> have thought about getting one though... I am glad you are able to
 PP> to live alone but I bet there are times you enjoy the company... I
 PP> know sometimes I just crave the quiet and wish I were alone... I
 PP> am glad you have friends to help out.  They can be a life saver.  I
 PP> have a couple of friends here who have gone out of their ways to
 PP> help me with babysitting of my five year old.  Now that Dad has
 PP> moved to Sioux Falls it is a little to do everything for this
 PP> family myself.
 
 I was given the microwave one year for my birthday when
 my friend's went together to pay for it. It's a small
 one but it has been great for me. Especially because I
 often have to do the quick meals. I'm fortunate to
 have my mom who cooks extra when she can and freezes
 it for me and another friend who comes by when I ask to
 help make up some meals that can be frozen for the many
 days when I hurt too badly to do much.
 You craft the time to be alone at time...me I'm still
 looking for whoever it is that will come into my life
 to become a life-partner. I used to look for a husband,
 but I gave that up long ago and figured that he'd come
 along eventually.
 I am really lucky to have friends to help and it is
 nice that there are things that I can give back such
 as helping watch their kids sometimes.
 PP> Sounds really nice.  Most of the pillows I have done have always
 PP> just been a complete pillow.  I have always wanted to try and make
 PP> one that is a slip cover and comes off forwashing.  I am glad you
 PP> mom was able to make it for you?  I bet it will look simply
 PP> wonderful when it is done.
 
 I have several pillows that have a picture that I x-stitched
 incorporated into the pillow. On one my mom embellished
 with buttons that were my great grandmother's. All of them
 can be removed to wash. They attatch by velcro in the bakc.
 If my mom didn't do that it wouldn't get done because I
 hate that kind of sewing.
 Right now my mom has been really sick though. They are going
 to schedule surgery to take her gallbladder out and for
 her sake I hope they do it soon!
 Thanks for caring.
 Wendy
