Guest guest Posted June 18, 2002 Report Share Posted June 18, 2002 Terrible about the possibility of your brother's job!! I have a young friend here who is chewing her nails about her job with World Com (owner of MCI). She is a technical writer and trainer so maybe won't be laid off as soon possibly as some others. Best wishes to and prayers for your brother and family! How are you? Did you hear from the doctor? Take it easy and pamper Mrs. Special You.

Guest guest Posted July 3, 2002 Report Share Posted July 3, 2002 I know, Zanna, I don't consider myself pretty by society's terms either. But then, screw society! You are pretty...it comes from within, shines through in your spirit and makes you beautiful. Believe that...I don't lie about stuff like this.

Guest guest Posted August 8, 2002 Report Share Posted August 8, 2002 Hey Zanna, thats better, I want a big piece and a ride on your scooter, lol. The docs office called Tuesday and this nurse said my blood work was alot worse. I asked them what, which ones, what they were, or what they were talking about and she said I don't know! I am feeling pretty cruddy, started to go to the hosp. the other night with my heart racing and my legs are so weak. I think my body likes 15mg of pred better than 10. Hows Kylies sunburn? I hope it is better than s. Hers doesn't hurt so much now but it is peeling big time on her shoulders. Looks bad cause she was getting a dark tan and the new skin looks sunburned. Wow, a 12 yr. old 5'10''. No wonder none of those girls mess with her. Thats how tall I am. Ash is excited about her new school. They let her pick out the classes she wanted to take, at her other school there were no choices. Well I gotta go lay back down, I just havent felt well. This heat I think makes everyone feel yuky. Take care, Lem > Ok, Lem, I am sorry and yes, that was mean.
