Spring is wonderful, especially when the perfume of the blossom trees carries on the breeze.

The Skagit County Tulip Festival is in April. A short hour drive from Seattle.

Good morning all.

One down

One to go -

Baby Jack was born about 5 hours ago. Hopefully this snowstorm we're having right now won't be too horrible so I can go and see him tonight!

YAY! Congrats, Mamie!

[Mamie]

Posted: 3/7/07 at 8:15am

Thanks Girly. I'll admit to a little bit of disappointment that this one wasn't a girl. The odds were better for a girl from these two but it looks like we're just going to have bunches of baby boys running around! (LOL - I love that mental picture!)

Here's an Irish breakfast for everyone - to celebrate little Jack McGowan's arrival. (The world really needed another Irishman in it!)

Who was that cool breeze with the hot coffee that passed by?

Congratulations, Mamie! The family is growing by the day.

I hate snowy days. The phone is ringing off the hook - parents want their kids to go home NOW before the roads get bad. The first call came in FIVE minutes after classes began. If you don't want your daughter to drive in the snow, DON'T HAVE HER DRIVE TO SCHOOL ON A DAY WHEN THE CHANCE OF SNOW IS 100 PERCENT!!!

End of rant. Thank you.

You're right, Moony.

My boss (the COO) is just a pain in the neck about travel arrangements. I made his travel arrangements for this week two weeks ago, and of course, this a.m. he wants them completely changed.

And of course, he leaves this afternoon. *sigh*

To quote Moony, "End of rant. Thank you."

What time do classes start at your school, Moony?

[Bluemoon]

Posted: 3/7/07 at 9:03am

7:50am, girly. School is out at 2:30pm.

Where's Boobs - was he the person who bought the winning mega-million ticket in NJ?

[Rathnait62]

Posted: 3/7/07 at 9:05am

If he was, he's on a plane to Sydney. We'll never hear tell of him again.

STROKE: Remember The 1st Three Letters... S.T.R.



A neurologist says that if he can get to a stroke victim within 3 hours he can totally reverse the effects of a stroke...totally. He said the trick was getting a stroke recognized, diagnosed, and then getting the patient medically cared for within 3 hours, which is tough.

RECOGNIZING A STROKE
Thank God for the sense to remember the "3" steps, STR . Read and Learn!
Sometimes symptoms of a stroke are difficult to identify. Unfortunately, the lack of awareness spells disaster. The stroke victim may suffer severe brain damage when people nearby fail to recognize the symptoms of a stroke.

Now doctors say a bystander can recognize a stroke by asking ! three simple questions:

S * Ask the individual to SMILE .

(If the smile is lopsided, a stroke is likely to have occurred.)
T * Ask the person to TALK to SPEAK A SIMPLE SENTENCE
(If the speech is slurred, a stroke is likely to h ave occurred.)

(Coherently) (i.e It is sunny out today)

R * Ask him or her to RAISE BOTH ARMS. !
(If he or she cannot raise one arm, a stroke is likely to have occurred.)

*NOTE: Another 'sign' of a stroke is this: Ask the person to 'stick' out their
tongue. If the tongue is 'crooked', if it goes to one side or the other,
that is also an indication of a stroke If he or she has trouble with
ANY ONE of these tasks, call 911 immediately and describe the
symptoms to the dispatcher.

You had a stroke?

So you're taking your mega-millions and going to med school?

[Mamie]

Posted: 3/7/07 at 9:12am

Doesn't look like the post of a man who just won the lottery.

[Broadwayboobs]

Posted: 3/7/07 at 9:13am

Sweetie..if I won the mega-million..I'd buy a doctor. :-0

[Rathnait62]

Why?

[Broadwayboobs]

Why not?
