Tommorow the 20th will mark 2 years to the day of my wifes liver transplant. We are thankfull everyday for the gift of life her cousin so unselfishly gave. Kristen risked her life by giving up 60% of her liver so my wife could have a second chance at life. On this anniversary we are attending a couple of Philadelphia Gift of Life Foundation functions trying to bring awareness to organ and tissue donation. Here are some pics of what the gift can do:
1 day before surgery 87lbshttp://gallery.s2ki.com/imagecatalog/imageview/9675/6/ 4 months after surgery http://gallery.s2ki.com/imagecatalog/image...geview/20602/6/ matching scars http://gallery.s2ki.com/imagecatalog/image...geview/20603/6/ recent pic, we were godparents to a freind

On topic:
Tomorrow: Fertilize the lawn. Install the Valentine V1 Radar Detector and Concealed Display in the S2K. Wash the S2k. Watch the NCAA basketball tourney. Go for a drive. Watch the NCAA Tourney.
Sunday: Go flying with my buddies for Sunday morning breakfast. Possibly drive to Philly after that to the Fox and Hound Pub to join some fellow NC State Alumni to watch the Wolfpack play in the NCAA Tourney.
GO WOLFPACK!

Since we just got over a foot of new snow this week I'm gonna head out early this morning and take a snowmobile ride. Then head in cook some rigatoni with ground turkey and spices then maybe take a nap. Then do it all over again on Sunday.

Sorry your daughter's having a tough time, Kyras -- hope she heals and improves rapidly -- Sorry Rob, NY and Blu have to work 
, great anniversary date, Charlie 
I'm so happy your lovely wife is doing well!!! Wonderful. We will be going down to Appomattox for an antique car show, car museum tour and luncheon and then back to Lynchburg for a dinner to celebrate the 2nd birthday of my grandniece. Tomorrow we'll go to church and then to a Lynchburg Symphony Concert in the afternoon. See you guys on Monday -- hope everyone has a great weekend.

Charlie, what a wonderful story and what an incredible recovery. I am so happy for both of you, and I hope she keeps on going strong.
Kyras, I hope your daughter is doing better. Having wisdom teeth pulled is lousy to go through; I used to hate dentists untill I found my current one.
Quiet weekend here, I was hoping to wash the S under the sun today and maybe take a drive but my clutch foot is acting up (gout in the big toe) so I'm hobbling around today. Hilly is thus going to take her mom shopping which leaves me home alone today to model and watch the Darlington Busch race.
Tomorrow, dunno... come what may.
Have a great weekend!!!

Just finished painting the 2nd upstairs bathroom and now taking a lunch break and gonna tackle painting the vacated eldest daughter's bedroom. If time permits I'll be doing some lawn prep and outside stuff but right now it's storming here so open windows and painting .
