    Thanks a bunch..... I don't have internet access so I guess I will
    wait on the phone thingy....
 WA> I was given the microwave one year for my birthday when
 WA> my friend's went together to pay for it. It's a small
 WA> one but it has been great for me. Especially because I

 WA> have my mom who cooks extra when she can and freezes
 WA> it for me and another friend who comes by when I ask to
 WA> help make up some meals that can be frozen for the many
 WA> days when I hurt too badly to do much.
    Great sounds like a really good bunch to be around!
    
 WA> You craft the time to be alone at time...me I'm still
 WA> looking for whoever it is that will come into my life
 WA> to become a life-partner. I used to look for a husband,

    WEll husbands are not all they are cracked up to be..... I know
    there has been times I tried to get rid of the one I have.... He's
    been around though for 19 years and finally we are doing much
    better... Maybe I will keep him.
    
 WA> I am really lucky to have friends to help and it is
 WA> nice that there are things that I can give back such
 WA> as helping watch their kids sometimes.
    Well then you are a blessing for them!
 WA> Right now my mom has been really sick though. They are going
 WA> to schedule surgery to take her gallbladder out and for
 WA> her sake I hope they do it soon!
    Well I am glad that she is going to get something done for that
    gallbladder.  I had mine out two years ago and was very sick at that
    time.  I hope they do too.... I know that it is extremly painful!
    
 WA> Thanks for caring.
    I thank you!
