May 10th

Hello to all. It has been a great week. Highlight was Thursday when the entire family, minus Andy, ten of us, went to Claimjumper in Lake Oswego. We had never been there and the portions were huge, so we were told; everyone leaves there stuffed. My meal consisted of onion rings and a chocolate milkshake for my appetizer. The main course was ribs and chicken, huge baked potato, roasted vegetables, garlic cheese toast, big portion of my mom's ribeye steak, followed by mud pie that I split with my daughters and then I ate another one by myself. After all of this I was still hungry, so I guess my appetite is back. As far as sleep, they found one medication that is working and I am alternating between this and another one that is not working so well. We are right in the midst of packing. Tiffany spent the entire weekend with us and she helped put a huge dent in the house. Our house is in utter chaos to say the least. Our plan is to have everything boxed and ready to go before the June 1st move. I only have two more times in which I have to mow our huge lawn. Looking forward to a smaller place!

I have a George Peppard look to me, as my brother said (Banechek (sp?)). He says I should keep this style, but after being bald I will be danged if anyone will try to cut this. No, I don't plan on acquiring a pony tail.

As you can guess, things are happily chaotic. As always, I am so thankful to my family and all of my friends.
