Mmm, cookies...
I have a five-year-old nephew who couldn't be more swishy, and I'm making him the flower boy. He is ridiculously excited. I just hope his siblings don't shame him out of his excitement. I've already heard his big sister making fun of him once.
Lyra - were they
behind at the start by that much? I didn't think so - I thought it was getting lost that did it for them.
I was really hoping they'd make it. Win it, actually. Now I'm pulling for J and U, with Rob and Amber next.
Also,
I want to go to Botswana.
Except for
wasting so much time at the wrong water tower, the brothers
did run a pretty good leg. I'm curious how far behind they were, because it was pretty clear that the producers were editing the show to make it look closer than it was.
A note from Jeff's sister, with permission to share...
He was happy for such a quick response, and said I can go ahead and tell you what's going on.
Jeff is in Shands...almost 5 years ago he had a kidney transplant, and now they fear he may be rejecting it 'cause the kidney's not working so well.
His spirits are high, and so far we really don't know much of anything...they're collecting info, etc...don't know how long this will take or how long he'll be in...
Good news: We're blessed he's in the right place for this.
Thanks for the warm wishes!
Jodi
oh poor Jeff. best to him and his family. go go gadget kidney.
Thanks, Laura. For e-mailing and sharing the response (I was about to click on "send" right when I saw your post, and I'm glad I didn't - I guess Jeff's sister has enough on her hands right now).
All the possible health vibes for Jeff, and calmness to both him and his family.
He is ridiculously excited.
That's so cute! Is that the first - I'm not sure how to phrase it - close-family wedding he's going to attend?
Oh dear, I hope they can fix Jeff's kidney!
Everything good and health-inducing to Jeff and his fam and friends.
Well, if Jeff ends up needing a new kidney he should let the hive-mind know.
It would be a first for us but I wouldn't be shocked if we pulled it off. Or out. Or, well, you know...
Oh wow, that's rough. Here's wishing health-ma to Jeff.
