Brooksie... I love you, friend! Reading this list just warms my heart and makes me smile. Wish we could go on a long walk and then come back and drink whatever beverage sounds appealing to you as coffee currently does not. :-)
Hear, hear Jackie! Brooke, you made me laugh out loud several times, to which Andrew responded with, "What now?" I love and miss you friend, and am praying this nausea leaves you soon! By the way, Andrew thinks I'm a vampire too : )
