Enjoy the weekend, all, and congrats on getting through the week!

Almeeker, sorry to hear your mom has fibro; it is one horrible condition. I hope she manages OK. Poeple don't know it's not just pain; it's so many other things too: fatigue, emory and vision problems, IBS and all sorts of lovely stuff.

Anyway, hope you all are well, enjoing your weekend and crossing stuff off your to do lists or hey even just relaxing, that's fine too.

Hey Canary,
you mentioned that you have used acupuncture for your Fibro. Does it help? I am so sorry to see that you suffer with this awful disease. It sure seems like with all the medical break throughs these days we ought to have a better handle on this one. I admire your attitude and diligence in the face of all that discomfort and pain.

Quinn and Ruby, I think you 2 got a gold stars this week! And CJ, you'll get to the trim when the time in right. At least is sounds like you got your office under control.

And to everyone else, there's always next week.

Green Bay at Atlanta- What an awesome game it will be. (Don't tell anyone, but as big of a Packer fan as I am, I think we're going to get killed!) Maybe all of my fellow "Cheese Heads" can help shovel Atlanta out while they're there. We do travel with shovels in our trunks, you know.) lol

No worries, mambo...football's not really my sport either, more like hometown proud, as I was born and raised in Baltimore. Of course, the Orioles are my team, too, and I take no end of ridicule for that.

Aaaanndd...looks like the Falcons will go down, too. But what I am really gunning for is the beginning of the Australian Open on Monday!
