Thanks, all. A quiet and productive day catching up on home chores for the next round of aquatics, a nice birthday present from Hardi, and Stromboli with Stout followed by HOCKEY. Also I treated myself to the odd venture in transferring a tape to MP3 for a long-lost, prized tape; the latest Google search for its maker turned up a FABOO set of pages I'll use at a workshop that will honor her (and others) as a preserver of spirituals.
Honestly, there were many days when I really didn't think I'd make it ti 55, but dang! Here Ah am and going strong!
