I took a few moments to get a couple photos of my Forsythia bush today, before all the blooms go away... And I just wanted to let everyone know I'm still alive... I want to thank everyone for all the wonderful comments, sitemails and emails - you all are just the best! Things here have been insanely busy lately, but I think I see a little light at the end of the tunnel - hopefully it's not a train! LOL! Things are still very difficult with my dad - his short-term memory is almost non-existant... He can tell you stories about his childhood, or his experiences in WW2. But he can't remember what you told him 5 minutes ago, or even what day it is. He's back at his apartment for now, but I don't know how much longer he'll be able to stay there. At any rate, I'm just taking things one day at a time. I'm trying to stay somewhat caught up on comments, and have been working on a few projects as time permits. I plan on being back in the swing of things very soon, and for my come-back post........ Well, it's a surprise! :-D Hope everyone had a great St. Patty's Day, and didn't drink too much green beer! :-D Bless you all - I'll be back soon! Rod
