SATURDAY

Billy came by yesterday evening with some most awesome grilled yard bird. Bill, feel free to bring that kind of slop by here anytime.

Right now just sitting here waiting for the bacon and biscuits to finish off in the oven. For anybody that is interested, the best bacon on the planet comes from Fruitland Meat. Hell, pretty much ANY meat from there will blow grocery store meats outta the water. It's all locally raised w/o all the artificial chemical "enhancements" that you find in commercial meat that will artificially chemically enhance your teenage daughter's equipment to appear 10 years older than it actually is.

And the prices are within a few cents of the grocery store. And another piece of advice, cook your bacon on a cookie sheet in the oven. 12-15 minutes @ 425 should be about right to give you nice, flat rashers of that most excellent of meats.

Speaking of which, I think that is why muslims are always pissed off and blowing stuff up... I mean, how happy would you be if your religion said you couldn't have bacon??

Anna has made more progress since she's been home than she made in the last week in the hospital. Being home and having friends and family coming by is the best therapy she could possibly be getting. She is more mobile and more mentally with it than she was before we got home.

I'm smelling bacon, so I gotta go. Will update later today.

So glad to hear that Anna is enjoying her company and making progress. Thank you for the excellent care (and meat) you are giving her. We are meat-lovers, too!! LOL Give Anna a hug from her cousins. We were planning to visit her in St. Louis this weekend - must be why she left town!! Our love to you both!! Roy and Debbie Shanks

Anna will be @ home 'til 18 JUNE when she starts radiation treatment @ Barnes. So until sometime midday Monday, all visitors are welcome to come by the crib.

Son when would it be a good time to come up and bring your chair and visit. Thought about the end of this month. Let me know okay?? Want to come when it's convenient and won't upset Anna. Know she will be roughing it with the treatments. But need to go to Sam's while I'm there. Take care and love you both bunches and bunches. MOM

Glad you guys are getting a little R&R at home. I don't doubt that it's way better for her than the hospital. I'm going to try to come up & see you both before Anna goes back to Barnes. I'll call first.

ps tell Anna she'll be proud of me, I finally got a facebook acct :)
