Catching Up 4/10/07

How can days pass without getting to my blog? I have to say again how wonderful it was to hear from so many of you - some even concerned as to my health since I hadn't blogged for some days. Thank you for your concern - I guess I'm an every-few-days blogger for now so don't worry about me. My health is just fine for the moment - pancreas willing, it'll stay that way.

Notes to those who commented:

Chris: It's been so wonderful knowing you all these years. Enjoy the Cold North.
Sherri: You do so much - keep on doing what you're doing to help the needy ones.
Gretchen: Thank you for your kind words. The first time we met I said I wanted you to have my grandchildren - offer still stands if it was my choice...... you're a true kindred spirit.

My radio show went well on Friday - I enjoy that so much and this weekend was a double-header. I also appeared as a guest on Rick Moore's Wake Up Call on WNRN 91.9 on Sunday. What fun that was! We had caller after caller with wonderful questions. Rick, as always, started the show with his own sensitive words of wisdom. I need to say thank you to Rick for inviting me on the show regularly for all these years (since 1999?). When I figure out how to do it, I'll connect this blog to my website so you can go back and listen to any of the shows on 7th Wave Network or WNRN.

The remainder of Easter Sunday was quiet and peaceful. My daughter and granddaughter came down for dinner and before we ate we fed apples to the cows - quite a sight actually. The neighbor has six cows in his field (2 mamas and 4 younguns) and they have decided they just love apples (which I take to them every few days). They gallop full speed to the fence when they see us coming - cows shouldn't be able to move that fast - looks like an Old West stampede. It's fun getting to know them - never really knew cows personally before. As I get to know their different personalities and appreciate them as unique beings, I'm happy I'm a vegetarian and I won't meet them on my dinner table.

Here it is Tuesday and I'm supposed to be in Richmond shopping and eating with my best friend Florence (she's on Spring Break from teaching) but her car is in the shop and her mother's car (which was supposed to be in the shop) was stolen (and soon recovered). It's always one thing or another, right? So, I'm enjoying a day of blogging and running errands.

Again I want to thank everyone who either blogged back, called, or sent me an email - it's so wonderful to hear from everyone. Heading to the gym (don't really feel like it, but better go - ever feel like that?). Bye for now.
