TOD: In a word: Mom's.

This Christmas she sent a few of my favorites: Zimmsterne (cinnamon stars), Springerle (an anise cookie that gets better with time, so I haven't touched those yet), coconut merengues, chocolate surprise cookies (the surprise is a marshmallow baked into a chocolate peanut butter cookie and then glazed with a mocha frosting), cream cheese cookies and gingerbread.

DR Matthew, when are you heading to London?

Larry - the ticket is for April 2, so I'll probably leave the Monday or Tuesday after Easter (March 27)

I haven't really been to London - I have spent 5 hours there during a trip to Paris, but the terrorists decided that was the day to bomb one of the tube stations, so my day was cut short.

I'm looking forward to seeing what I can see in the little time I have there - see the sites, see some shows, etc.  Looking forward to seeing Phantom and Les Mis - for they would be the mother-ship all of productions, etc.

I am home. Nothing from Jonathan, and Joshie told me to go home and he'd call me later. So I did.

DR John G - in response to your concern last night about your parents:  It's not easy and, no matter how right you know your actions are, you will feel guilty.  Richard and I were both very fortunate that our mothers made their own decisions about moving to retirement communities and giving up their cars, so I have no insights there.  I will keep you and your sister in my thoughts and prayers as you paddle into these turbulent waters.

Good morning. I spent the weekend near Blythe, California. On purpose.

Thank you. Dad got his problem with the insurance company straightened out this morning, which is when he seems to be more with it. I'm just afraid his diabetes meds need to be adjusted and no one will ever convey that properly to his doctor. And of course, the general situation changes that occur with aging.

Well, he's ahead of me!  I just spent 15 minutes listening to the worst hold music ever trying to talk to someone about my new health reimbursement account.  Finally gave up and will try again later.

We also got our questions answered and are now much smarter than we were.....healthcare wise....

The first page of the letter I got denied me some things.....the second page, which I hadn't bothered to read since the first page said DENIED all over it....tells me that I do indeed have increased benefits and some lower co-pays on many things.

Hi, everyone.

Just a quick pop-in to say sorry that I have been absent a while. I got in over my head, schedule-wise, the week before Christmas. And once you miss a week at HHW, it is very hard to catch up! But caught up, I have. I have read every single word of every daily notes and every single post!

Was shocked to read the horror of the Toyland denouement.
