3/17 Happy St. Paddy's Day!

I'm wearing a Hawaiian shirt because it's the only green I have. For lunch here at work we're having corned beef and cabbage, hope there's something for us vegetarians. Actually, I think I'm the only one. Ah, well. I can eat the green cake and cookies, if necessary.

Russ and I talked on the phone last night for over an hour. It was a nice way to end the day.

Just got off the phone with Beata, with last minute stress "stuff." They're leaving Okinawa in about 10 hours. I'll see them in about 30 hours. Can't believe it's getting so close. I'm so excited, but guess what? I slept eight hours last night. It's been almost a week since I've done so. I'm thrilled.

Safe travels for all today, especially my lovely kids.

Hi Russ. I am Jer's sister-in-law Karen. I am married to her youngest brother Jim. You guys are kind of burning up those phone lines, aren't you? Jer, I don't think it will be just your brothers!

Cindy,

What are you doing home today? We will have to get in touch with Russ to see if he has any questions about our fair Jer! Oh Russ, the stories we could tell you!!! Most of the really good stuff happened before I joined the family, I have only been married into the family for about 12 1/2 years. Cindy is always a great source of info for me! She is a wise woman! Of course we only have good things to tell!!! Right Cindy?!?!?

Hey, DF. I'll pick them up in a little over 17 hours...it's getting close. Then no more excuses for my ignorance. :)

Hello, Heidi. They should be landing here in about 9 and a half hours. They're going to be exhausted, but happy. Jer
