    Micmel, had no idea that surgery would take so long! Thinking of you and wishing you a speedy recovery. Thanks for the updates, Chelle. My 85 yo mother landed in ICU with her recent gallbladder surgery because of lung issues, but she came through it just fine, so I trust Micmel will. (((Hugs)))

    Good afternoon everyone!!! I have some great news! I heard from Micmel herself! She is in a lot of pain and very woozy from all of the anasthetic. She is being watched very closely. She will remain in ICU until tomorrow. Huge sigh of relief!! Micmel will be back soon,but not today. She is just not up to it and needs to sleep.

    She is a real trooper! 13 hour surgery!

    Much love to all!❤️

    Chelle.

    YAY micmel! You wrote to us. 😄 We'll survive just knowing you are taking those pain meds and surviving that long surgery. No wonder you're exhausted! I just had my little bit of anesthesia and slept all of the next day.💞

    Micmel, I am happy that you are back and that surgery was successful. You will be up and about before you know it.

    I am back in NH. That month went by very quickly. We arrived home yesterday,did the grocery shopping on the way home from the airport, baked the pies last night, and am ready to cook Easter dinner. There is still a thin coating of snow in my front yard and a pile out along the street. The temperature isn't too bad, and spring weather is on its way. I am looking forward to digging in my gardens this spring.

    Happy Easter to all who celebrate it. To everyone, Easter or not, enjoy your Sunday.

    Hugs and prayers from, Lynne

    Micmel-nice to "hear" your voice! Congratulations on the new addition! We were all a little fretful during your surgery; so long. With pain diminishing daily, you'll be good as gold very soon!

    Happy Spring to all! Love, MJH

    MJH, What a great picture. I love the pink boas! Do three of the five of you have birthdays close together? It is always nice for friends to go out and celebrate together.

    Mae, I hope you can read this. I did not use refrigerated mashed potatoes, we made our own buttermilk mashed potatoes. Yummy!!
