Here's another cloud over our heads today:

Ohio's Largest EMS Providers Close...

Our son Rob worked for one of these companies in Cincinnati.  He received the news via phone at 10pm Friday evening.


How awful!  I am so sorry, Ginny!

Thanks, DR Elmore.

In her PARADE magazine column yesterday, Connie Schultz (wife of Sen. Sherrod Brown) said, "We're only as happy as our unhappiest child..."  Right now, for me, that's not very.

I'm completed iced in, by the way.  It looks like a "dusting" outside, but it's a never-ending sheet of glazed ice, from the door all the way down the 200-300-foot driveway to the road.  (I really do intend to measure that someday.)

Yeah, DR John G.  Not good news to get anytime, but right at Christmastime really sucks.

I was wondering why I was having an especially tough time getting warm this morning...it is only 18 degrees outside!

Our winters here in Salem, Oregon, 97301 are not normally this chilly...in fact, it is rare that we get below freezing.

Thanks, DR MBarnum.  This week he has to concentrate on the final exam for his anatomy & physiology class (pre-req for physician assistant school).

Just found out that one of the nicest people I've met in San Antonio's restaurant scene died this morning from cancer. It's come as a big shock. We'd been praying for her husband, who has been in need of a kidney transplant for several years. Never knew that she had health issues, too.
