Hi Sassy
Sorry to be slow in replying to your nice note!
The holiday season was very nice, in large part because our son came home for about three weeks, so we enjoyed watching movies and cooking favorite comfort foods.
But also, I have not been in great health the last six months, and in December I decided with my doctor that I will have surgery (now scheduled for Feb.) because of pretty severe arthritis. I have been hobbling around with a cane, and feeling very nervous when I have to confront the slippery brick sidewalks at work!
It is a real drag to face immobilizing pain!
Getting your message put a smile on my face, as I remembered . . . well, probably best not to say what I remembered.
A big hug back to you!
Cheers
