Hi Allison,
Eh!!! Typically Canadian eh. Is your husband flying to T.O. for those 3 days. Is he staying in a hotel? So are you planning to go with him? I guess I don't understand when you say you would have to stay the weekend before or after. By the way I am going to be 43 in two weeks. I can't believe it. I still feel like I'm 25, still look it too "yeah, I wish". How bout yourself? You mention you have kids. How old are they? Talk to you soon. Karen

Karen, The cost for a flight to TO if you stay a Saturday night is only $300. A flight midweek is $1200. Mark is staying at a hotel but I don't have all the details yet. Wow, you must of hit that wall terribly hard. Were you unconscious? I was but only for a few minutes. We have no kids just a whole wack of cats and 2 puppies I picked up in Sept because I felt I needed a good distraction and more exercise outside. Now it's "What was I thinking?" These two, brother and sister, are just a bundle of energy. It's hard to keep up. They're border collie/blue heeler pups, so the outside cats are always being rounded up. Nobody has lost an eye yet. I'll be 43 in April.

Hi Allison, I just started this weekend work at a private school for girls who have major head problems. I am exhausted. It is very hard on me emotionally more than physically to deal with other people with this injury. I am very embarassed. Especially when I have to cook breakfast or get their medication amd I have to ask for help. I guess it's my pride. I did it anyways.
So you are coming to T.O. with Mark? What an excellent price!!! That would be great! What days? If you do come then we will definately have to make plans to meet and for me to get down to the City. It's 2 hours from here. I'll find a way to get there. I am going there on Dec. 1st to see this plastic surgeon.
So your kids are fluffy and fury and have four legs. That's good. At least they keep you busy. I have two boys. One is 23 years old and the other is 12. The oldest son is on his own in Brampton and my younger son lives with his dad now until this is all sorted out. So let's get this plan in motion if you are up to it and anyone else!!!! Karen

Karen and Allison,

Sounds good to me. I'm booked on the 13th, but can do the other days.

TO is 1.5 hrs away for me and very doable. Or we could meet somewhere between TO and Collingwood.

Hey Courtney~
What is going on??? We need to find a resonable trip for everyone, I think. I wish we could do warm. Whats New Orleans like now? I know its got to be cheap for staying there, don't you think. And, man, talk about a party!! And lunch in Chicago? Saturday? I read Kara, too? Great! Kara are you from Chicago? Your son is the BPI? Get back to me and I can see what I can do about lunch? Its the 5th, right?
