Guest guest Posted June 12, 2000 Report Share Posted June 12, 2000 Carol & Esther, I'm so glad that everyone is home and doing well. I can relate to Ron's boredom. That is what got me started with computers. I hope he finds something to occupy his time while he recuperates. The kids will be ecstatic to see Esther back at work!! Great news Esther! It has been a very long time away from work, and I'm sure you will be happy to be back. a ----- Original Message ----- From: Esther & Carol <cheerios@...> < egroups> Sent: Sunday, June 11, 2000 11:38 PM Subject: [ ] Howdy Friends > Howdy, > Want to let you all know that Ron is doing really well and that > Esther > is back home also.

Guest guest Posted June 13, 2000 Report Share Posted June 13, 2000 Tell Ron that my phase has lasted 7 years now LOL! AND I get worse with time! I'll bet Esther enjoyed story time as much as the kids. It's nice that she is back to doing what she likes so much. a ----- Original Message ----- From: Esther & Carol <cheerios@...> < egroups> Sent: Monday, June 12, 2000 9:40 PM Subject: Re: [ ] Howdy Friends > Esther returned to work today and the kids were sooooo excited.
