It is just about mid Feb. I have been very busy in a strange kind of way. Brain Surgery for one thing. This has really made me come to grips. Life is so very special and now I realize what it means to "Enjoy every sandwich." Looking forward to the upcoming year. I am currently been appointed as Regional Coordinator for The Kennebec County Area for Maine Crafts Association. I hope to have a get together/get to know soon. I have some post operatation check ups in mid March. Soon come after that. Life is Good, Bless us All!!!!

Successful Operation
Although Winter, recovery brings more color to my world

Wait for Spring
Check up…Lungs Clear

Rest and slowly awake
