Note from Julie Humphreys
Hi Stacey, We’re glad to hear that you are doing so well. Where and when can I see you? You will be pleased to hear that Lucy came home with a blue ribbon last Saturday (she actually beat you-know-who), and Ian came in fourth. We miss you. Julie PS Shouldn’t you be drinking protein shakes…

Note from Anonymous she-climbs buddy
Hello, Stacey: Thanks for the recipe! Sounds yummy AND healthy. 63 calories? I remember – was it only 7 months ago? When you were determined to put on weight pre-surgery? There was lots of ice cream, and steak and eggs for breakfast. Unfortunately, I think your friends were the ones who gained the weight, what…

Unfortunately, today I felt some pain and tiredness so I rested on the couch most of the day. I must have walked over a mile total yesterday, and have to save my energy for now. Myrna, my caregiver and I, have been finding some great recipes. Here is a very easy and tasty recipe perhaps…

Note from Felix

That was my fault; I modified the guestbook so that “[u r l]” (all the letters together with no spaces) would be filtered out) to foil the last spammers…

Note from Norrie Gill
Hi Stacey, I thought I would read your journal to catch up with what’s new. It reads like a suspense novel. All these unplanned adventures would be overwhelming for most but I am proud of the way you meet each new challenge and keep on plugging along. What an example you are for those beautiful…

Note from Miki
Stacey, your last message has cracked me up. I’m pretty sure that you aren’t inserting icons into your messages, as funny as it would be, given all the postings from go-men, etc. I think anytime you type a “u” “r” or “l” it gets goofed up. I’m no computer programmer, so I just think it’s…

Note from Stacey
Felix, thanks for taking care of the spammers for me. John, good to hear from you. It has been good to be out of the hospital. In the past few days, I have been spending some quality time with my mother and Robert. I have been making some good strides in recovery this week. Instead…

Note from Felix
Hi Stacey, congrats on the surgery and being able to go home! And don’t worry about the [url] spammer; I’m on top of it now. Wishing you a speedy recovery. love, Felix, from Fremont
