Wow, that sounds really good, Thoughtful! Keep us posted!

Why thank you, Mags! But in my least busy Fray/Mote days I wasn't a very dependable Cafe person. I'm still very much at work (five preps+ESL) through the end of May, but compared to what I have been doing, my job and two reasonable graduate classes and a few other events, including a Praxis II test and graduation, don't look like a bad spring schedule.

Beautiful couple, Mags!

21264. TheWizardOfWhimsy - 3/3/2007 6:07:13 PM

Indeed!

21265. wonkers2 - 3/3/2007 6:47:06 PM

Yes! Your son and his bride?

21266. alistairConnor - 3/3/2007 7:39:30 PM

Woo-hoo!

A very handsome couple!

21267. arkymalarky - 3/3/2007 10:16:58 PM

Gorgeous!

Thank you all--yes, wonk, that's my baby--Keoni says that he looks like me--I can't see it, but he has my eyes.

21269. judithathome - 3/4/2007 6:17:22 AM

Keoni knows whereof he speaks, Mags...he used to be an investigator and took classes in face recognition.

21270. arkymalarky - 3/4/2007 4:13:06 PM

How's Leslie, Judith?

21271. judithathome - 3/4/2007 9:17:16 PM

He is going to the vascular surgeon on Tuesday. He may have another clot in his leg.

21272. wonkers2 - 3/4/2007 9:35:22 PM

Just out of curiosity what are the symptoms of blood clots in the legs? I get pains in my right upper leg when I sit a lot or on long plane flights and worry about clots.

21273. judithathome - 3/4/2007 10:15:07 PM

There's pain in the artery and he said the front part of his foot and his toes are numb...

21274. judithathome - 3/4/2007 10:17:03 PM

The surgeon told him he should walk at least an hour every day after the surgery and I think Leslie slept for like four days last week and woke up to this...I just want to beat his head against the wall! But he's a grown man and a mom can only do so much.

21275. wonkers2 - 3/5/2007 4:30:14 AM

I thought the leg blockages were usually in veins, not arteries. A friend had that. It was called DVT, "deep vein thrombosis." That's what I've wondered about when I get a pain in the back of my right thigh. ???

21276. Magoseph - 3/5/2007 6:51:33 PM

Thoughtful, how is your mom doing?

Wonks, have you considered that you could have a problem with a muscle in your upper leg?

Anyway, if the pain has not subsided for a while, you should see to it and the sooner the better.

21277. Ms. No - 3/5/2007 7:57:43 PM

Wonderful news about your mom, Thoughtful, but "I had a heart attack" is perhaps not the kindest expletive to use when you're talking about a scare at the hospital --- you scared me! ;->

21278. Ms. No - 3/5/2007 8:02:17 PM

I'm taking it in shifts with some other friends to care for a friend of mine who got thrown from her horse this weekend. Nothing broken, but she tore - read "shreadded" -the long tendon that runs from the groin to about midway down the femur so she's pretty well incapacitated. This is complimented/complicated by the torn muscles in her abdomen and thigh/groin and then just general soreness from the final landing.

21279. alistairConnor - 3/5/2007 9:15:30 PM

Ow! There are a thousand ways to fall off a horse. Not many of them pleasant. That doesn't sound like a good one.
Dangerous business, riding horses. I love it. But find I don't have the time these days.

My friend with the horses has had a couple of falls recently, and messed up his hands a bit
