I'm back - kind of . . .

Wow - thought I would only be "off radar" for about 2 weeks, but it has definitely been longer. My simple surgery turned into 1 simple one, and another emergency surgery 3 days later to repair more problems. I spent 13 days in the hospital, but have been home one week today. And today was the first time I felt up to sitting at the computer long enough to read a few blogs and check my email.

Thanks to some of my local readers for the calls, visits, cards, and flowers. I can't say how much I appreciate knowing my friends were thinking of me.
