Hi everyone! Glad to hear the good news about your Dad, Catherine. Hope he continues to do well and remain pain free.

We had a nice Easter weekend with Ellen and Scott. Katie didn't come - didn't have $$$ for gasoline. Ellen made an Indian dish Saturday night - Vindaloo - which was very nice. Sunday was baked ham, etc. Hope Jane got all moved and glad Nancy and boys were able to help her so much.

I plan to spend all week trying to get my garden in shape. Yesterday we had rain/snow - no accumulation, it was kind of weird. It was rather warm for snow, and the flakes were gigantic. We did trot around town - copied IRS forms and got them mailed.

Saturday morning Ellen and I wandered thru the new Lowe's here. They had gotten in their spring flower shipment - lots of annuals in full bloom. I resisted buying - I know they will not survive these cold nights and people will be sorely disappointed. I did get 3 very nice gardenia plants - they were not very expensive - and fertilizer, grass seed, etc.

Sandi went to the groomer on Friday so she looks a lot better. She was pretty worn out when she came home and Fritz was VERY interested in sniffing her- lol and she was NOT very tolerant. She is pretty even-tempered so all she did was snarl at him. When Max arrived he too was very interested. Sandi and Fritz are both exhausted and slept practically around the clock since Max left. Today I expect they will be back to normal.

The television in our bedroom has "crapped out." Anyone got any advice on a new one? Will wait til we get our income tax refund, but am looking for the cheapest place.

Okay everyone - have fun today - over and out.

Mom
