Things are moving right along here for us.
Within 8-10 days I should be sleeping in my own bed!
I can't believe the time has slipped by so quickly.
Thanks to a few of you that sent us some great packages recently.
Susan, Bella's Incredible "Fairy Godmother", I have received all of your packages and have loved them dearly!
You've made it REALLY HARD to maintain a diet with the kind of stuff you've sent! BTW, 'Barley' is a darned, cute pup!
Mary-Lou… You never cease to impress and the folks loved the snakcs and goodies! And this coming from a "Bengals Fan" to a hardcore "Steelers Fan"

Carol (Granny), got your package and it was right on time; I was running out of soap myself

Maria… EXCELLENT DVDs!!! The only one that didn't work was the '05 Crue show but it doesn't matter.
So, the Steelers are in the playoffs against Jacksonville. As good as this game will probably be, probably
the most exciting of all the first round games, I will probably miss it due to being on my way outa here!!!
I guess that's a fair trade-off. And I am looking forward to watching the penguins' outdoor hockey match against
the buffalo Sabers tomorrow. That's gonna be pretty cool, especially if it snows!
Thanks to everyone that has corresponded with me and sent great packages for the troops over the past 4-5 months!
I couldn't have made this far w/o it!!!
take Care!
