Good morning Elizabeth!Smile Oh my, that elephant looked very menacing. That must have hurt, Elizabeth. Glad the weather is somewhat drier today for you. That is a good idea, going for a walk. Hope you have a much better day today.Smile

I feel fuzzy in the head and tired today. I cleaned both my bathrooms from top to bottom. And yesterday, i cleaned my (almost white) carpet. I am so glad i upgraded that carpet....2 dogs and a pig.LOL Our cars become pigmobiles and the house becomes a pig stye.lmao! Well, i can only do so much. But my carpet comes up beautiful every time i shampoo it. Whenever i feel better, i will rinse the carpet in the livingroom. Gonna take a nap now, honey. Talk to you real soon, ok?

Hugs, Sis,

Doris

Kathy, i hope you are ok honey.Smile How are you losing weight? I tried everything, including a month of starvation (with vitamins) and lost nothing. Congratulations on that 5 pounds. That is a lot! Would you leave me a post telling me how you are doing it? I would really appreciate it. Take care in the heat today, Kathy.

Love, Hugs and Prayers,

Doris

((((Elizabeth)))) i am so happy to have been of some help to you. That makes all the pain i went through, worth it. Of course i will pray for your friend, honey. I feel such empathy for people who get sick and smoking is the cause of it. You are such a good friend to her, too, Elizabeth. I hope she opens up to you like you opened up to us...like a beautiful blooming flower.

Bless you both,

Hugs and prayers,

Doris
