Hi There!

I've been gone awhile. After so many years of blipping I finally had a blank spot, but I've got a good excuse. I'm back home after heart surgery, and we are trying to figure out how to manage a lot of changes in our lives. The surgery was a little more complicated than they had hoped, the hospital stay a little longer than predicted, but everything conspired to get me back here, to allow me the absolute joy of seeing a wall of these flowers on my walk around the block. Color, smell, sensation, delight all come back in a rush. I am blessed to be here. I get another chance.
