Carrie, hope you feel better soon. I know you will, 'cause I had my gallbladder out and boy I was happy not to have that pain anymore. Did they do laser?

My dad came through his surgery fine. He does have a huge scar though, shaped like a "z." I am now calling him "Zorro." He got out of bed this morning and sat in a chair and ate breakfast.

Aw, shoot. Wish we could go, but Em has homecoming and will be getting ready for the dance. Plus, my mom will be with us (from Glasgow). My dad is having surgery at Norton's tomorrow. They are removing a kidney.

 
At Mon Sep 25, 02:20:00 PM EDT, Anonymous Anonymous said...

CONGRATS CHARLEE-LYNN!!! It sounds like your dance team was a "big hit"! That is great! We knew it was just a matter of time before everyone else knew our little secret about how good you are. I know your mom and sister are so happy for you.

Thanks for asking about Danielle. God love her, she started throwing up at 9:00 p.m. on Thursday night and threw up until 11:30 a.m. on Friday. I can't believe she did not get dehydrated. They called her in some phenagren and I keep making her drink gaterade. She didn't go out of the house Friday or Saturday and only went out for a couple of hours yesterday. She went back to school today but still a little weak.

I can't do dinner Friday night either because of homecoming. Danielle is getting her hair done and then of course we will have to play taxi to dinner and then to the dance.

Keep in touch!

 
At Wed Sep 27, 08:58:00 AM EDT, Blogger Brian G said...

S.E., it looks like it might be just us for dinner if Carrie doesn't get better in time, and the games get rained out for Becky's and Marla's crew. And Laura's somehwere (can't recall) Dee?

I have an idea... we can still go Friday (Maybe Rich Aunt Nikki will come - everyone's welcome) but Jessica's dance team is having a pancake breakfast fundraiser somewhere Saturday morning. It's only $5 a person.

Gosh I look good...

and Miss Jessica looks even better! he he This is us at the St. X vs. Trinity game that Presentation was to dance at half-time but as you all know, was stopped in the first quarter due to heavy rain and lightning. We spent a couple of hours maybe under cover thinking it might let up but we had fun anyway.

P.S. The field pass I got was to get me on the field to record the dance and Jessica's boyfriend, Josh, yes, the same Josh, goes to Trinity. The field pass shows St. X but below it says 'vs. Trinity'. he he


P.S. P.S. Amy called me back yesterday after I pocket dialed her and says we're going to get together Friday night. So lets all have a party! Miss all of you.

What did Jordan think about Michael Bush getting hurt? Tell him to eat all his fruit and vegetables so we can watch him at U of L in about ten years! LOL

Yard Sale!!


Don't forget, the yard sale is Saturday. If you want a space give Mrs. Connie $5.00 for the Add in the CJ. This maybe a great time to sell Dance shoes, leotards, and since Halloween is just around the corner, old costumes!!
But, the yard sale is for everything, not just dance stuff. So bring in your old toys, clothes, household items!!
