2. I've been stumped on a research project - since playing this game
I feel better about what I am trying to accomplish and I've made notes of new words to use.

And rice is going to those who need it.

8. Just visited it briefly, because there are homemade enchiladas cooking for dinner,

and I certainly don't want to be late for THAT.

Actually, since you asked (and thank you for doing so), I've had a DRAMATIC positive change in my health in the last few weeks.

My God, it isn't until you get sick that you appreciate the miracle of waking up in the morning and feeling NORMAL.

I'm back to myself, and I'm working - I am SO back. And just in time to save Mrs R from worrying herself to death...I was turning into a ghost right in front of her.

I really, REALLY like your new house. I'm sure you're enjoying it, after all you've been through.

12. I am thrilled that you are feeling better
and sorry you have been sick and Mrs R so worried.

You go put that meal in your belly and enjoy.

The door to my little tree house is open should you ever head south - and now I have a pontoon boat that I'm fixing up to enjoy in the spring.

Go eat and enjoy your evening. :hug:
