Update Thanks for Reminding Me

Bonnie and Beth. I actually have time this weekend, the first in a good many weeks, to gossip a bit.

Looking forward to seeing Laura Lennon this Tue eve in downtown Chicago as she dines there with Roseanne and I and hopefully Alicia (maybe Layla and Norb...we are not sure)

Roseanne has a new swish downtown apartment now in Chicago on Wells and she has related the joy of commuting ten minutes to work instead of about an hour or more one way...YeAH!!!

Beth, so good to talk with you today and hear your perky voice and hear that you are doing fine after your head on collision. THAT is a miracle, agree?

I heard that young Kevin was in town last week..Alicia and Norb and Layla had dins with him..so we hope to see him in his next visit?? and yes Kevin, are you now moving to Georgia????

Do Tell

I moved into a much smaller office this last month. I have shared space with a young buck chiropractor for about a year and a half in my larger office (23 years) and he found a spanking brand new wee darling officeso we moved August 5 We share the rent and continue to take care of our own patients on our opposite hours. I am learning to be a "roomie" and of course God has his work cut out but I am doing okay; I was able to de clutter my life and sold a lot of my extra equipment to a chiro from Georgia. Now I am decluttering my life of crap in my home and some debt and look forward to many good years of working in my profession.

Kathe is back at work teaching first grade now....Mary Jo continues to be reading specialist at her school; Pat is working very part time although he did a big session in the Quad Cities for a Corporate Nonsmoking program and did very nicely..Julie keeps in touch and for all of you who want to know more about him, I know little except he needs our prayers as he derails off his life course and I will leave it to Julie to select what info goes out about him.

Pat and MJ and Kathe and I had a delightful visit with Jo and Bob in July 4th in St. Louis We saw Ann and her gorgeous family; Jackie and her darling son; David and his brood of beauties and Jenny and her beautiful girls.....it was a delight and we were pleased to see how mobile Bob was that day.

We know he struggles with some memory and so I say ME TOO but I do know Jo can tell more stories there.

I heard Nancy is doing great so Mike, keep us abreast of this and prayers to her as well.

Brett started college this week and he is delighted to be teacher's pet already mainly cause he has a brain and some innate intelligence and he is dealing with 19 year old little monkeys....

We wish him well in his new apartment and new life but still WE GET to see him when we wish. Very nice

Alicia of course has this wonderful family that we all adore (yes, we adore you Norb) and just got a raise at her corporation and she is beside herself.

Emily is successfully negotiating her corporate career and her life with very sweet man Serj

Remember now Columbus Day in October, Mary and Ed , Jo and Bob (?) Tom and Jan, Ed?? and Linda??, Pat and MJ Kathe and I and Roseanne and Julie are having the get together.

By the way, we heard Linda got on the transplant list and I am sure we need to remind them we are keeping her in our prayers. I heard good things happening at Mayo Clinic..is that in Wisconsin Bonnie or is there one in Florida too? Keep the postings going to add to the correct info here.

Special past month with Dad's death August 15 and at the ten year mark...amazing.. So sweet to see Brian's Website dedicated to them....

Love and kisses. Good evening from Chicago..May we celebrate our good fate in not being in the hurricane and keep those out east in our thoughts and prayers... PB
