MARCH IS ROARING .....


The photo is of John with Allie at the hospital before we brought her home. She will be 24 years old on the 24th of March. Hard to believe. She read us her essay for her grad school application the other day when she was visiting. I was so proud....it was so well written & expressive!
I drove to Richmond today to see her house after the new roommates moved in. It's wonderful. We dodged the St Patrick celebration traffic in the "bottom" and headed over to Trader Joes and then to the VCU bookstore to get some trinkets to take to England with us.
We have quite a full load on our plates for the trip. Hoping to fly to Rome for a day....and ride the Eurostar to Paris for a day also. Of course, we'll tool about London & Great Britain too. I am sure we will bring back lots of tacky paraphinalia(?) they are selling on the street to commemorate the upcoming royal wedding!
Alicia goes for her MRI on the 17th and we have permission for me to sit in the room with her.....afterwards we will know more about her surgery.
March is really roaring. This weeks Japanese earthquake/tsunami with a possible nuclear disaster, Pete down the street from us had a horrific stroke, and a church member is in MCV - she had a heart attack while she was driving and thus had an auto accident......geezzzzzzzz
JR still hasn't sold his old Camry. Plan to put it on Craigslist tomorrow with a photo.
Sleepy...look forward to sleeping in tomorrow morning....oops, spring forward....set the clocks!
