Re: What Vicki Means To Us/JoySher

Vicky... it's always good to see a post from you honey. I'm glad the morphine gives you comfort and restful sleep. Makes the day a little easier if you're rested doesn't it.

So ya wanna be a daisy huh. I immediately thought of the little song, "Daisy, Daisy, give me your heart so true...". You have certainly done that here, given us your heart so true.

I told Beth I want to be nasturtiums. Bright, bold, colorful, they bloom where they are planted and take only a little care to keep on keepin' on! Oh, and they're peppery if you taste them. Now Vicky, doesn't that sound just like me? Tell me why you want to be a daisy.

I'm praying for Gene and and your family and of course you, every day.

Did you see the pictures of our gathering in WA? Not many of us but gee we had a good time. Steve/Vicky...Kathie/...Joy and Rich and I. All but Steve/Vicky went home the first day because they live within an hours drive and Steve/Vicky and we went to dinner at a great restaurant called 's. Right on the waterfront at the end of Puget Sound. The food was so good I ate like a starved piggy. I had the best prawns I've ever eaten, Steve enjoyed scallops and Vicky and Rich had steaks. And THEN I had dessert! Rhubarb cobbler/ice cream.

I'm still stunned I ate like that but it was so good and the company was so good. The four of us chatted like family would and I hated to see the evening end. Steve/Vicky stayed over but we missed them the following morning.

Vicky fell outside the restaurant and at the time she said she was fine, not hurt. But a couple days later she saw the dr and he Rx muscle relaxers/pain pills. So she did have some injury.

The next day (Sunday) Rich and I went sightseeing (small walks, driving). Went to a Farmer's Market where we bought local apples, Walla Walla sweet onions, 3 bars of lavender hand made soap and red potato's. Shhhhhh, don't tell but we bought a cream roll (real whipped cream) and a chocolate éclair to take back to the motel room. --- we don't eat like this as a rule but again, it was so good! --- We spent the rest of the day curled up on the big king sized bed, read the paper and watched Tiger Wood play golf. BTW. did I say the pastries were so good?

I was 'high' for two days after. We will go back and see who we can see in a few months down the road. It's not far...about a two hour drive.

I don't want to wear your eyeballs out so enough for now. Did I tell you the pastries were so good?

I love you!
