I have imported my blog posts from the days of Multiply and I also post my writings from my Weight Watchers blog. I hope to inspire someone and I hope to continually inspire myself. I welcome your comments. Excuse the language in the older posts, I have evolved....some, LOL.
I love old movies, especially black movies, but they're so hard to find. Not blaxpoitation movies of the 70's, but movies from the 30's - 60's.
I ran across this on YouTube. It's only 1 out of 6, but very interesting if you have the time to watch.
Portrait - Here We Go Again
I was watching Family Matters last night and they performed at the Junior Prom
I don't know about you, but the last few days haven't been easy for me. Do me a favor. Get up out of your seat. Close your office door. Turn up the volume, press play and take a break with me.
Don't think about anything else but getting your groove on while this is playing.
It's not going to solve anything, but dammit for a few minutes everything's on hold!
Chicago Tribune: Ill. Gov. Blagojevich in federal custody
CHICAGO (Reuters) – Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich has been taken into federal custody at his home, the Chicago Tribune reported on Tuesday citing unnamed sources.
The newspaper said on its website that the U.S. attorney's office in Chicago would not confirm the information.
Blagojevich was the subject of a federal corruption probe.

I am providing a link to the transplant information on the site of the hospital I will have the surgery at when the time comes, but I called and got some additional information today.
For the 1st round of testing, possible donors need to call Barnes Kidney Transplant Division (after I turn in my application) at 1-866-867-3627. They will give the required information over the phone and be sent a packet. If they live out of town (from St. Louis), they will also be sent a kit for their blood to be drawn locally and sent back via prepaid package.
If they prove to be a good possible match, there will be further blood tests done, chest xrays, EKG and for women a pap and mammogram. Which can also be done at a local hospital or if those tests have already been done recently, they will send a packet out which will include a letter for their doctor's office to fax the information they need.
If the possible donor passes those tests and it looks like the match will be a good one, a third series of tests will be done at Barnes. It will be a 1/2 day of tests that will be paid for by Barnes.
(They test 5 donors at a time)
Barnes does NOT pay for travel.
The final eligible donor will go to St. Louis for the surgery and my insurance pays for their hospital stay.
