Next week he'll fly to Houston to complete the procedure, which essentially involves several hours of blood donation (for lack of a better explanation) to harvest his stem cells. I can't even find the words to express my feelings about the most generous gift that Chris is donating to this woman who I'm sure will be eternally grateful for a second chance at life. Chris, who is 20 years old, is our oldest grandson. He makes us so very proud!!❤️ Maryann. Your grandson is doing an amazing thing and you are right to be extremely proud of Chris. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm done for the day.😊 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn’t answer any of the questions about his future when asked. Alex Ferguson was going to be sacked before he won the FA cup and he went on to be one of the greats! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is as many as we put down at our place, but I try to just do it every other year, with a little top dressing in between. If you had the storm we just had, you probably had some wash away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My knees are right against the seat in front of me. I can't imagine squeezing in another 4 inches of legroom. These theaters were built when everyone was a lot smaller. 🤣 Are you staying at the Michelangelo? That was a great suggestion for our stay in January...especially that Grand Suite. Enjoy the Bar-Bill Tavern when you get to Buffalo! Just got back from seeing Back to the Future , very enjoyable play , highly recommend and I bought tickets yesterday from tkts and this theater had plenty of leg room, I have a list of theaters that I will not ever go to again now it’s a little longer . I definitely need to research the leg room whenever possible. Had lunch in a seafood restaurant extremely small oysters but did have an excellent lobster roll. My cousin is playing at Swing 46 most of the night so we will definitely will listen to him possibly a return to Becco. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare h20skibum Posted May 25 #122440 Share Posted May 25 Couple of busy days for us. Getting ready now to drive to our granddaughter’s dance recital tonight. Four different costume changes for her. Had to buy our tickets from Ticketmaster, so this must be the big time. We are in between rain showers, so I hope it holds off till she gets inside the venue so her hair stays nice. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Momof3gurlz Posted May 25 #122444 Share Posted May 25 Andy opened our pool today. It’s a little green but not too bad. Ellie’s ready even if the pool isn’t. Speaking of mulch, we’re in the process of replacing all the mulch around the perimeter of the pool with small stones. Andy’s tired of the work and expense to put down fresh mulch every year. I also picked up a new trinket this morning. Still on baby alert. 2 cm dilated as of Friday’s appointment. 30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shrimp tempura roll, avocado, masago, cream cheese topped with spicy crab meat. Speaking of Sushi, do you know what the Sushi said as the bee flew by? ...... Wasabi Yum, that looks good. We used to belong to Sam’s Club and they made sushi right there. It was very good, but unfortunately we don’t belong there anymore. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sure remember the days when our 3 daughters were in dance school, and the many costumes $$ One of our granddaughters had a couple of years of dance recitals, our other two granddaughters did Irish Step dancing, so theirs were at Irish Feish(sp?) Our oldest granddaughter Erin even went on to teach Irish Step dancing for a year or two. Enjoy, Mark! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
