Right now I'm wondering if Az has room for me in one of her suitcases? I've always wanted to go to London, too. And now you may get to live there! Lucky girl!!!

That's wonderful AZ, I've been dreaming of a trip to Ireland/London... here's a sight I've added to my favs...

Tours

Now this guy is on PBS, and he does the tours of around the world... and you are looking for the residential areas... but I like that he bypasses the "tourist" places... and on the message board they talked of a hotel that was good, near Picadilly I think... anyway, maybe you can find something entertaining!!

Thanks, Reader! There is some good info on that site. I'm going to have lots of time on my own to knock around while my bf is in business meetings. :-)

Right now I am reposting a plea I made in the Updates Folder because I am not sure how many people will see it there--

"Would someone trade places with me for tonight? My SiL is really worrying me and I am finding myself very anxious, distracted and skittish today on her behalf. My brother said she keeps having panic attacks every time she thinks about leaving the house. Her MS symptoms have also been bad and I am just terribly worried about her and feel very sad today and I just don't feel up to tackling the update for tonight. I would appreciate it."

Thanks. I'm not up for it so hopefully someone will step forward, and if not, it will have to be a nonupdate night. I seem to be taking on my SiL's anxiety. I had an anxiety attack myself on the way to work this morning. Too bad I can't actually absorb it for her and spare her from having to go through it herself. :-(

I saw that HP. THANK YOU! I left you a note in the Updates Folder. You have calmed my mind a fraction by agreeing to do this. My thoughts are skittering all over the place today. I will be fine; I just need to relax and be strong. I think this is hitting me so hard because I've been in the place she is and I know how scary it is and I HATE that she is going through this. She has enough on her plate with the MS, which has been getting progressively worse these last 3 years. I just feel so helpless and I hate that. Thank you again. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Right Now, I'm kicking myself. I got it in my head to make a cookbook of family favorite recipes for each of my college kids. I made the mistake of telling other family members of my plan so I have grandmothers and aunts calling wanting to add recipes to the book. I know I should be thankful but it's turning into a huge project when I had planned for it to be just a simple guide for familiar comfort foods.

Right now I'm reminded of that saying "Man plans, God laughs". or something like that.

Right now, I want to let Secretsmile know what a wonderful thing a family cookbook is. When my grandmother passed, my cousin took all of my grandmother's recipes and put them together in binders, one for each grandchild. It is something so special and a treasure I plan on passsing down to my children.

I think it's a wonderful thing that your doing and your children will appreciate it.

right now, i'm utterly exhausted here at work. i could have slept for another two days. everything is moved to the new house, now it is going to take days and days to unpack and put everything into its new place. my kitties are still a little shell shocked. they seem to like my room best (it is the only one that is extremely similar to the one that they left.) i'll actually be able to go home for lunch now. my dsl still wasn't working last night (they said it would be 5 to 7 days to move it over.) i can't keep up with the BB threads on dialup. i don't have mountains of work today (thank goodness! hope everyone had a good labor day weekend.

Right now, take your time, Hermi. We want you back in full glory, wisecracking and 'cutting' your butt and all.

And right now, Secretsmile, I love that! Despite your 'cookbook that ate Binghampton' issue!! LOL! I still miss two of Ed's mother's recipes because no one thought to ask her for them before she passed away.

Our Corp Comm Dept developed a cookbook with a whole corporation full of cooks! Aaah. We made it into an inexpensive, spiral-bound book --with contributor's name by each recipe, separated into sections and featuring an index. Then we had it printed and gave a copy to each employee and retiree at Christmas. It was the biggest hit!

You know how inexpensive it is to make copies nowadays in the size and color, etc, that you want--with any color/quality paper and binder thingee? You could turn this into Secretsmile Christmas presents!

Right now, I'm LOL @ HP's term for this ever growing cookbook! I have bought binders and plastic protective sleeves for the pages and have every intention of giving them as Christmas gifts. When my grandmother died my aunt did make copies of her hand written cookbook, and I have made additional copies for my children. (I plan on keeping those as future wedding gifts.)

My only complaint is this was to be a "nuclear family" favorites cookbook. Just the foods that my children picked for their birthday dinners, or the comfort foods they'd request when sick.

ppsstt...now I'm being forced to add foods that were on the table at family gatherings, and that my kids wouldn't touch! LOL!

Right now, Secretsmile, I'm glad you enjoyed that! You have it all figured out already, I see. Well, you could section off the 'nuclear family' recipes you know--diff colored paper or separated with divider, etc. Then they'll instantly know to ignore all but the 'blue' pages. (Or you could footnote the gross ones with a vomiting smiley by the page number! Hee hee.)

Right now I just got the baby to sleep. I'm going to beat on sis when I drop the baby off later, lol. She had told me the baby had a dr. appt today and they would drop her off afterwards. They get here this morning, bring all the baby's stuff in, then tell me not only did she have a check up but she got two shots as well. Poor babys been crying for over an hour. Wouldn't eat or drink or sleep. I think the tylenol finally kicked in because she just cried herself to sleep. Grrrr on sis, lol.

Right now I have a suggestion for Secretsmile's cookbook...it will be on blue paper so that you can ignore it! When we did a similar project, we asked that everyone put in a personal memory of said recipe and not just the recipe itself. The cookbook was a big hit in our circle. I still use it often and we created it nearly 15 years ago.

Right now, I should have been on my way to Florida, but the rain and the winds named Frances derailed that plan, so now I have to wait until November. Luckily Jet Blue is honoring the ticket till then. It was a free ticket that my sister won and was supposed to be used no later than October 7th, but they are being really nice. Jet Blue is the best airline.
