        <![CDATA[ Rave:  one week from today I leave for my maiden voyage to NYC.  Even though it&#39;s my first trip, I&#39;m not going to do the typical first-time
routine...it&#39;s all going to be about the food.  Can&#39;t wait!


Rant:  it&#39;s been screaming hot here this week.


Rave:  summer with the kids is soooo much better when there&#39;s a pool in the backyard.


Rave:  babies.  So many friends are having babies!  I&#39;m bringing dinner to a couple of new moms next week.


Rant:  I promised... ]]>

The best friends have been those who have been there throughout talking about the future, and envisioning the whole, healthy, complete attitude, and not those
who have talked about his good life as if it was over. You&#39;ve been there for me and said the right things, and I appreciate it.

<br>
<br>
Simone1a:  I agree with your friend.  When you&#39;re feeling better, you can travel &amp; leave the security system on  - at home alone - with no
repercussions!  Sometimes, when I&#39;m opening the door in the dark for our son&#39;s dog to go &#39;out&#39;, I wonder exactly how that&#39;s
&#39;secure&#39;?  Also, my arm purely aches at night from throwing his squeaky... ]]></description>

<br>
<br>
Good luck with your new puppy. I told my sister I was considering getting a puppy, if for no other reason, for my personal safety. Although she is a dog lover,
her advice was: get a security system. <img src="http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/frown.gif"> ]]></description>

everything I ask him to.  And, shhhhh, he&#39;s in bed by nine!  I hope we get to sleep till six.

Just found out that the last chemo worked for Dave!  His white blood count came down from anywhere between 70 and 90 to a normal range of 6.5  Unbelievable! 
We&#39;re dancing!  It sure took a long time for any positive results, and we... ]]></description>

behind home, slightly towards first. I was bummed Tek and Lowell were both out, but Papi showed up and so did his bat. Youk is the best and when Papelbon is
ready to take the field, what an incredible energy boost - when you hear the first notes of Shipping up to Boston.!!! ]]></description>

<br>
<br>
I&#39;m kicking myself for turning down the tickets for Saturday. Beckett pitches a complete game shutout, and I could&#39;ve been there <img src="http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/frown.gif"> (of course,
it&#39;s nowhere near as bad as the drizzly night last year that someone offered me a nice grandstand ticket to see Jon Lester face the Royals.... ]]></description>
