Thread Drift

Nobody here thinks you're annoying, Oak.

I agree. I have missed you in the running thread. It is nice to have someone else training for a race.

I saw my first "picture" of my grandchild today, at 10.5 weeks gestation. Ultrasound technology has sure improved in the past 30 or so years!
You could clearly see the baby's legs, and it looked like they were moving around furiously. The doctor told my DIL the baby is very active.
I think we have a cyclist here...
Definitive due date for this one is August 12th. Since my other son's kid is due either last week in August or first week in September, I suppose there's a chance they could be born on the same day. DH and his brother were born on the same day, 10 years apart and my older son and DH's brother's son were born on the same day, 8 years apart.

How exciting!

Cool beans, Crankin!


If all goes as planned my honey and I will be heading back to IL for a short visit in mid February! Not our favorite time of year but her work doesn't seem to care that it's cold. It will be nice to see friends, enjoy some culture, and eat in our favorite places again... probably should have kept my winter coat.

Yep, I always kept my winter coat, while living in Florida. I actually needed it in AZ, contrary to what most people think.

So I'm watching "Jezebel." New Orleans, 1852, Bette Davis wears a RED DRESS to a ball even though unmarried girls are supposed to wear white dresses. She is shunned by everyone. Her fiance (Henry Fonda) leaves her, goes to NYC and marries a nice northern girl. Then he catches yellow fever. To atone for wearing the red dress, Bette Davis volunteers to go with him to the island where all the people with yellow fever and leprosy are sent.

It's a really good thing I wasn't born in antebellum New Orleans. I can't even count the number of red sweaters I own. Hell, I wore one today.

I love that movie!
And yes, it's a good thing I did not live then.
