I have been missing OH and all of you my friends, my family.

Late November, early December Leo had a health scare. What was initially thought to be the return of kidney stones turned more serious. His kidneys were spilling too much sugar..well over 1000 mg per dl when it should be 100-200. Then his liver was / is inflamed. And if that is not enough he now shares with me DDD..degenerative disc disease. He has it in the lumbar spine an I have it in the cervical spine. He has also been diagnosed as borderline diabetic and takes Metformin 500 mg daily. Thanks to all of you who prayed and sent well wishes through facebook and myspace.

Kristin came home from Univ. of Tampa for 6 LONG weeks! Doug had an audition / interview at Berklee College of Music in Boston, MA. His piano and guitar teachers gave letters of recommendation and feel his chances of admission are excellent! We should find out by Feb. 1.

My husband , 2 of our 3 kids and I celebrated a blessed Christmas and an uneventful New Year.Our eldest son was unable to join us; he was laid off his construction job as a restoration carpenter just 3 days before Christmas.
 I thoroughly enjoyed having a 2 week Christmas break from work. I am so fulfilledwith my job as Activity Center Leader for the before and after school program. Although my official "working hours" are 6 hours a day, much like a teacher i find i bring work home. There are always games, crafts and special events to plan for 60 children ages 5-12.

Blessings to all of you.
