Wow-- you did a lot! I... watched movies, slept in, ate. Wash, rinse, repeat.

Hi Laurie,
Sorry to hear about your Mom's breast cancer. I hope the treatment goes smoothly. A dear friend just underwent a lumpectomy on Monday. Results of nearby tissue biopsy are not available yet.
It has been so stressful that I vegetated those four days around Thanksgiving and watched the first season of Desperate Housewives (6 cds). Now I'm hooked and waiting for Season 3 to arrive at Smiley.
I went online and researched the syndrome after I received your email about Rose and then read your blog. She is so beautiful.
Gabi just turned 13 on Friday 12/1. I can't believe I now have two teenagers.
Blaine made it into the Varsity wrestling team at East where he's a freshman. I am so proud of him and relieved that his wild, thoughtless, middle school years seem to be behind him. He practices 3 hours every day after school and on Saturday and they have started the matches against other schools. It takes a lot of discipline. He is also getting good grades.
The wrestling team is selling cards (24 visits for $10, I think)for the fitness center so Blaine is also spending a lot of time at the Elitches 24-hr. center. There is no free time for trouble. I may actually start going with him. I need to exercise.
All our best to your family. Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and all that good stuff!
