I have a therapy appointment that night, I switched it so I wouldn't miss. Tough decision. I'll think about it, k?

Drag me Baby, drag me! And Nancy Sisterwoman--I soooo hope you can reschedule and get dragged, too! If not, (or even if) we should be making plans to Kroc Center it soon!

Yes indeed, Nancy--it's going to be a tough decision because both of these are important to your health and well-being. If you can reschedule, I'd love to drive you and Donna north.

Donna, I get off work at 5pm and can be by your place around 5:30 to get you. I'll probably call ahead so you can come down to the street. Don't worry, I'll slow down and open the window!

Just slow down to 20mph so I can get a running start! Will you have time to eat? Anything you'd like me to bring? Thanks for driving, Dearie!

Remember the old (I mean REALLY old) commercials of Hertz rent a cars? "Let Hertz put you in the driver's seat"? I am totally on that, even tho they were whimpy and always dropped their people in convertibles.

Seriously, Rene, you want me to bring some cheese sticks and lunch meat? I have turkey and ham. Cherries if you can do them. Let me know, I'll pack us a lunch for our journey up to "The North!"

I'll be fine. I usually bring beef jerky and cashews for my ride north. That's my go-to survival food. I have protein bars too. I swear, it's like packing for a baby...making sure I have food and drink, "just in case." I've become a collector of coolers!

Cherries sound good, but I haven't tried them yet. Driving is probably not the best time to see if I dump on them, huh?

Sounds like a plan, although I don't sabotage..maybe I just need more exercise. Sitting on my ass all day at work doesn't help!

Jennimaria, I should have pm'ed you last week, I was in Phoenix on the 13th in the evening & left on the 14th. I'll be flying back in on the 27th, but won't really have any time for a visit with anyone.
