    Have a five day work week coming up - haven't had one of those since October!! Then we need to fly to Kauai Friday afternoon for a funeral - going to be a tight week!!

    1. Pay bills
    2. Organize Kauai trip
    3. Haircut
    4. Cancel online class

    Doesn't sound like much fun, but I really need to get these things done to have time for fun!!

    Sounds like we all need to be conservative AND FLEXIBLE this week..........me too, as I have a week full of running errands almost every day. UGH!

    VL take it easy so you don't relapse.

    DC - let us know what is going on and what you find out.

    This week I will:

    REMAIN FLEXIBLE

    Continue on the cleaning up of messes.
    Work on cutting more things.... that DON'T include my finger!
    Finish other hook holder.
    Bathe kids and trim - try this one again!
    Mail box to DC.
