Greetings to one & all in MD Land. Those of you that are my closer friends may have thought I've fallen off the face of the Earth. These past couple of months have been anything but dull... thankfully, I've weathered the storms that have passed, & actually feel like getting out their in Cyberland again. After my uncle's death, we were clobbered with one snowstorm after another up here, followed by cold snaps to boot. This put me in a very monotone mood, & all I felt like doing was sleeping. There was only so much I could do inside.. I cleaned out my closet, did some E-Baying, watched TV, called friends, etc., but that still left too many hours of the day with nothing to do. And with roads that were either snow or ice covered, I wasn't about to venture out any distance. By mid-April, the weather finally loosened it's grip, & we had some milder days & FINALLY the snow started melting... but not without a couple more cold snaps & snowfalls. In late April, my dad experienced shortness of breath after exertion, & had heart tests done. Thankfully, his heart is in excellent shape, so it may be a touch of asthma or emphysema from the 45 years he worked with ink products. A couple of weeks ago, my mom slipped in WalMart & fell & broke her arm & shoulder. She has surgery on May 21st for this. I will not shop @ WalMart ever again, after finding out from her injury lawyer that WalMart isn't covering one dime, as they do not have liability insurance, hence why they they can have such low prices. I myself developed UTI symptoms, which after lots of tests came back negative, & was determined to have been caused by stress. Thankfully, my physical last week went very well, & the doc said I'm in excellent health. Also during all this, my aunt & uncle had short hospital stays as well. So, I hope & pray I get a bit of a break now, as my faith was definitely pushed to it's outer limits. I'm looking forward to my annual trip to the Railroad Park in Rochelle, IL. from May 21-26. If any of you live in the northern IL. / Rockford / Rochelle areas, feel free to stop by & say hi. It would be great to meet some new faces. Happy Mothers Day to all the moms out there! *HUGS & FOOTRUBS* ladies.. *HANDSHAKES* guys..
