->  hn> I must say I liked it better when I was there, everyone was
->  hn> friendly and happy to see you....except in Spain where Gen
->  hn> Franco held sway and NO one was happy.
-> 
-> I know, but, at least we got a chance to go over there.  Afte we came
-> back, we found out that family members with asthma are no longer able to
-> go, due to the shortage of medical care after the early 90s major BRAC &
-> draw down. So, I'm glad we had the time there when we did--got to be in
-> Berlin when the wall came down & the country re-united.
-> 
Lots of memories!

-> ->  hn> Well actually we have more. Anne's sister who lives here in WA 
also
-> ->  hn> has the same service and so does her mother in New York. Anne 
talks

-> -> OK, sorry, I didn't factor in extended family.  We use Skype with them

-> 
->  hn> We thought about it, but this is free so why add another
->  hn> set up when we don't really need to.

-> I've got a computer geek/guru for a spouse, remember?  Besides, Skype
-> has been reasonable & allowed both of us to talk to the other party.
-> We've been using Steve's new phone, on the speaker mode, for that
-> lately.  Got to talk to Rachel the other day after she sent ultrasound
-> pictures, letting us know we'll be grandparents again in early October.
-> 
Well Congrats to you! and to Rachel and David(?) too!

-> -> I know, we've got a nice plan too. Just extended our contract for a
-> -> couple of years when we got new phones last week.
-> 
->  hn> My plan could only be better if we could roll the unused minutes
->  hn> over into the next month...but since we never use more than
->  hn> the allotted minutes we'd soon have massive minutes "on file"!
-> 
-> Sounds like us but have to go with the package of minutes closest to
-> what we use.
-> 
Same here!
-> 
-> -> -> week as well so usually don't have much to do any one day & we 
keep a
-> -> -> good supply of clean clothes.
-> 
-> ->  hn> Doing it Sunday evening works good for us, I'm usually too
-> ->  hn> busy on Mondays .
-> 
-> -> Sunday evenings after church I usually veg out watching various Food
-> -> Network shows. During the day Mondays I'm home long enough to sling 
2-3
-> -> loads of laundry between machines.
-> 
->  hn> Not much on TV on Sundays anymore (sure not like the old days!!),
->  hn> so while Anne does a last bit of school work prep, I do laundry.
->  hn> Works for us LOL
->  hn> Mondays I do errands almost all day!
-> 
-> I like Food Network on Sunday nights, with the remote handy to hit the
-> mute button for the endless repitition of the most annoying commercials.
-> We've been watching the new show, "Ultimate Recipe Showdown" and 
some
-> look rather interesting.  The winners each week get put on the
-> TGIFriday's menu--but there's no TGIF's here.  But, they're also posted
-> on the web site so we may try some of them.
-> 
-> 
We usually watch a dvd or listen to music on Sunday evenings.
chat with you soon
