Once again, I cannot believe it's been so long since I've written here. Good news/bad news: I've written hardly anything, anywhere. Finally wrote and mailed a letter to Loretta this week. Fingers crossed I'll write more soon (hoping to pen one to Andrea and another to Doris by weekend's end). SIGH.

On my mind: 

Struggling to get some "house" things done: new roof, mower repaired, lawn care, animal/pest removal. Ever try to find the right person for the job? As a homeowner, it seems to be both a crapshoot and just plain luck. I've followed up on many suggestions for someone to do something, only to find out that person was awful or had severely critical reviews. Sadly, I'm getting to critical mass on a couple: the roof is leaking and we now have both mice and a groundhog. UGH!

Health issues have blossomed and grown. Yeah, part of the aging process. But some are at critical mass (just like my house ones, eh?). Dang! Right now, dealing with a sinus infection that has affected my hearing (lots of noise in my ears, too) and my energy level (to almost none).

All things I'd rather not think about and so, I'm in stuck mode.

Miss my husband; miss my wonderful animals. Grateful for sunny days.
