Shirley/Re: & the June Caboose

[Guest guest]

Shirley,

First off, congratulations on getting to the other side. I thought

about you all weekend wondering how you were doing. I just found

someone at work to fix my computer, the only problem is how am I

going to get it to him since I am off work for the next 3 weeks? I

am going to try to find a way to update you all after my surgery. I

am sure I will figure out something!

It looks like I have everything on your list except the Boost Breeze

which I will venture out this afternoon for last minute items and

hopefully I will stumble across this. I thought at the hospital on

my dry-erase board I would write the message MY DOCTOR DID THIS TO

ME. I am sure I will get some laughs out of that one.

Thanks so much for all your support. It really means the world to

me!

Well it's almost time for this caboose to depart the station...I

will talk to you on the other side!

25.5 hours to go!!
