I know - SO comforting aren't I? :D Yay for dose 8 and that you are past the half way point. So sorry though for the nausea and distended tummy. That hurts. I get a distended tummy with a malady I have and it's really uncomfortable at best and painful at worst. I go from a normal of four months pregnant-looking to nine months in a half-an-hour. It's been happening all week, at night, but next time it happens I will think of you and think of it as communication with my faraway friend! Belly buddies. Let's come up with another way to feel connected. hahaRobynn's Ravingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02619286823020924023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4795026946181152215.post-69660731774894734872013-04-23T11:12:17.091-05:002013-04-23T11:12:17.091-05:00I take myself back through my pics- often these da...I take myself back through my pics- often these days Vic- so true :)Vickyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02595982706357639001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4795026946181152215.post-67464755587628264642013-04-23T11:11:38.591-05:002013-04-23T11:11:38.591-05:00I've seen all the flooding this week in your a...I've seen all the flooding this week in your area Verna- scary- hopefully the water will begin to abate and recede soon - we are just gearing up for ours :)Vickyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02595982706357639001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4795026946181152215.post-19354973541470317922013-04-23T11:10:26.306-05:002013-04-23T11:10:26.306-05:00Ha- yes and it isn't much better this week yet...Ha- yes and it isn't much better this week yet either :) Soon- the melt will come!

And the "our" son Jackie, indeed for all of the years, all of the time, all of the sweet ways you have followed his little life- he is- in an honorary way- "our" son :) <br /><br />Love to you!Vickyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02595982706357639001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4795026946181152215.post-32165775099197619972013-04-17T22:49:23.639-05:002013-04-17T22:49:23.639-05:00Thanks for bringing us to the ocean with you Vicky...Thanks for bringing us to the ocean with you Vicky!

GREAT!!!<br />Smiles abound from me as I watched and listened to that.<br />As you rest (and I am glad that you are resting, my friend,) I have a hug for you to give to your Mama. Sending nothing but love and hugs to her. Mothers are a treasure for always, and I know that you and your family are taking the best care and giving the best love to her. Give her my best, would you.<br />As you continue your meds, I am so glad to read that you are over half way through taking them. So happy to hear that. I pray for comfort when discomfort creeps in. <br />Finally...I LOVE the photo of the snow, Vicky. As I've said many times on many of my friends' blogs (yours included)...I don't get to see snow. I love to see it...photos of it...the softness of it, and to know that you still are able to enjoy it brings happiness to me. What the heck! Put up the Christmas tree if you have to!! :))) Enjoy the wonders of God's gifts...whether they be white or green. I love you, my friend.<br />JackieJackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01214796594702277709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4795026946181152215.post-57815303577733628502013-04-17T12:39:04.013-05:002013-04-17T12:39:04.013-05:00I know- right?

It seems as if old man winter is holding on with all his might! We here seem to be going right into summer as we are looking at the 80's and into the 90's next week. I really don't like the 90's and wish it would wait until July! <br /><br />I'm happy to hear that you are tolerating your medication. You are in the home stretch now having already taken 8 out of 14 doses!!! Yay!!!<br /><br />Your pictures and video are wonderful and really show all you got to experience and enjoy as a family. I love the upside down building!!! <br /><br />Hugs my friend!

And while I probably don't want snow in April, I'll also try not to complain about skipping over spring and jumping right into 90 degrees in April. :)<br /><br />Glad to hear you're hanging in there.
