Both Rick and I enjoyed ourselfs. Doran grilled dinner for us, after a couple hours of Terri and I talking and chatting about her trip and looking at my FSL and the CUTE quilt - then Terri and I chatted some more. She has a wonderful craft room. What a neat thing to do, visit with another CUTE family member and get to know them so much better. We really had so much fun, we could have talked for plenty more hours - but it was getting past 10 PM and we had a long drive - so we had to stop for tonight. Terri is a great artist and she does so many crafty things - I hope she shares some of her projects with you sometime soon.

He'll have a early wake up, but it was good for him to get out.

Nice pictures and nice to see a larger photo of cutie's. I can really see you both now. lol. Glad you had a good time together. I love to meet up with the girls each month here in Aus, we have show and tell on what we have made for the month and set some challenges to do to keep it interesting. I am never bored and enjoy my day very much and we take turns to go to each others homes. Hope you catch up lots. Sandra
by shirlener88 09 Jul 2010
Sandra, thank you so much dear one. I was thrilled to catch up with Terri, since her visit to your end of the world. She was a super host and had lots of projects to show me. I loved it. I think what you all do in AUS is so wonderful.
by beatie58 09 Jul 2010
You both look so happy and enjoying your time together...Sally

Shirlene, between your new "do" and the wonderful smiles on your's and Rick's faces leads to me believe that the two of you sre feeling alot better about health and life in general. The pictures show a lot lighter spirit and not so much worry. Staying upbeat and without so much worrying shows me that the two of you are well on your way to a much happier and healthier future. Your smiles are wonderful to see! Oh, and the hair style does make you look younger. Twee seems to be a very nice person all the way around and friends can be just what the DR. ordered. I am so glad that all of you have met and that you and Rick are now able to get out and about. My prayers still go out to you and that continued progress is made until the two of you can get back to a more normal lifestyle. Thanks for sharing these pictures of the three of you. Hugs, Linda

by shirlener88 09 Jul 2010
Thank you each - we did have fun and it is always great to get away from the doctors and therapy - share stories and gather wisdom from each other, too. THANKS!

It looks great. I know what it is like to have a long braid then get it cut short. It takes some time to get used to. Enjoy it.
