@Dutchy,
Hey my friend.... R is 16 and 35 mins... he's probably awake, he doesn't sleep either

chip off the old block there a?

I will call him late morning and wish him a Happy Birthday - I hope he will speak to me - I think he will. Thank you dear BEAgle for your thoughts.
So glad the weather is turning on the right side for you. I'm watching IKE right now - my nieces inlaws (to be) have been evacuated from Galveston to her in Houston, so I'm waiting their safe arrival and praying all will be alright in the IKE's path.
Missy - you're a good person - believe in you. Try not to think about it... think of good and positive - hope the boys have fab games and you and G-baby have a little one on one time - is he all better now... are you feeling better from your cold?
Love to all xox
