Yay for the baby!!
I am still praying.
I went to the Apollo today... could not get in... I would have never been able to wait on that line.
Every foot was another bootlegger seller of MJ shirts, hats, pins, posters, bootleg CDs, DVDs... madness!
Here are some pictures:

Baby boy came out weighing 1lb 12oz.

The little dude has already pulled out his breathing tube twice and breathed on his own without it.
He still has his teeny tiny oxygen mask on.

There is no fluid on the brain as far as the doctors can tell. (hurray!)

New mom was able to go in with him and touch him!
She will probably be released to go home tomorrow.
Baby boy is predicted to have a lengthy hospital stay - probably until the original due date.

With every hour that passes his chances get better.

The little guy is not out of the woods yet, but at least everyone is able to take a much needed deep breath.

That is an outstanding report!

He's really big for his age...any chance dates were off and he can go home even sooner? Wonderful wonderful!

Duranie- Dude. That's insane! At least you got to witness the madness!

Euridice · Jul 1st, 2009, 01:13 PM

Oh, FT, I am relieved to hear this news. I'd been checking back to see how things came out. I will keep your friends and their baby in my thoughts and am hoping he continues to make such great progress!!

Wow, duranie!!

Irainei, the fun and madness continues at your house!! Your reports are never boring!!

Car will be 346.90....barf. But not bad for a car manufactured in late 2002 (2003 model). Other than brakes, oil, balancing, and tires, this is the first ever work, so it was a good purchase. I leased initially then bought it when it was worth more than the purchase price.

irainei · Jul 1st, 2009, 01:46 PM

NC- that's nothing...at least it isn't a few Gs

E- I didn't even bother telling y'alls the pants and diaper on the ankles and walking down the hallway story... So much happens on a daily basis and I'm just so pooped lately. LOL

No Cute · Jul 1st, 2009, 02:05 PM

Not bad at all, but should have been cheaper for what it is, but I went to the dealership on dh's suggestion. Now he's like, "why'd you go there..." lol. At least with the dealership, I'll have some post purchase protections.

Nicola shell in Large: anyone? The colors are a bit deeper and a bit more muted.

Euridice · Jul 1st, 2009, 03:31 PM

I must have missed something....what is in that picture, No Cute? What is a Nicola shell? Those are pretty colors...

No Cute · Jul 1st, 2009, 03:41 PM

It's a shirt that doesn't fit my girls

...sleeveless shell type thing. Want it? I'm following Sandy's give away trend and paying the goodness forward

if anyone wants a colorful summer blouse.

Euridice · Jul 1st, 2009, 03:55 PM

ohhh, I see, and yes, I saw that before I read your post in the mindful thread. Thanks, but I don't think that would work for me and my, er, girls, either!

No Cute · Jul 1st, 2009, 08:00 PM

My friend placed her order for three bags, so purse porn for all of us in about a month! Yippee!!!

sandysandiego · Jul 1st, 2009, 09:16 PM

So exciting! We need others to buy some bags to look at! Maybe that way we will have more willpower to resist! Way too many sales right now. I was good and didn't get anything at the BE sale!

duranie70 · Jul 2nd, 2009, 10:25 AM

I wonder when my Mini E is coming?
I warned my hubby last night (finally) Told him I paid for it 2 months ago and it is not even finished yet but not to worry, selling things off.
He saw I was upset about selling things and he said, "Don't worry.. when you get a job you can rebuy the bags you are selling in colors you like even more" That was a nice thought. Visions of a BE whisper to me full size in pebbly petrol dance in my head... I know- I know- its just 1 bag though...

I am praying when I do find something I won't be making less but by the looks of things out there... I can not believe the starting rates of salaries.

Did I tell you all a head hunter called me about a job- making $8K less then I was making? When I said, "No thanks" she yelled "Good LUCK" and hung up the phone on me.
