I am so happy things are looking up fo...AMEN, TODD! I am so happy things are looking up for you. I, too, love that corned beef and cabbage on St. Pat's Day even though I'm 100% Danish. So I made a corned beef in the crockpot and then used the same juice to cook the cabbage. Delicious! Greasy, yes, and my gallstone is kicking at me, but it was worth it.<br /><br />I'm an old geezer, too, and I certainly remember '45's. Never heard the one you had by the Beach Boys, though. Course I wasn't really a big Beach Boys fan. . . my heart belonged almost solely to the Beatles; back in my day, you were either a Stones or a Beatles lover, the Stones lovers being a wilder set than the Beatles ones, little old sheltered me went with the Beatles. I always secretly hoped to marry Paul, although I thought John was the most brilliant of the four. Ringo? Feh . . . George was too quiet for me, but kinda sexy and mysterious. <br /> Was/is it easy to get a bone marrow donor? I thought there was a long waiting list for that as for other bodily donations. I, too, have heard that is a rough process during which you will be extremely vulnerable to any infection, but I also have no doubt you will come through this with flying colors. You are in my prayers daily, my friend and in my heart and mind always. You are not alone although in those deep dark hours of the night (and I've had many of those), everything can look bleaker. One of my favorite quotes (Biblical though it is in origin) is "Weeping may tary for the night, but joy cometh with the morning." or something like that. It actually first heard it from the movie title JOY IN THE MORNING, a movie starring Richard Chamberlain (a major former heartthrob of mine) and Yvette Mimieux, and I've loved the quote ever since, although I don't think the movie was all that stellar. - Gentle hugs -Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10475880460158720077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1935863796778960516.post-42417430166059005112013-03-17T21:24:02.917-06:002013-03-17T21:24:02.917-06:00Todd!
