Surviving

I haven't quite been in the mood to write lately. My wife has been through a series of illnesses and mishaps, and we have spent a good deal of time in the hospital with her.

She's home now, but she still requires physical rehab to get her muscles back in shape, as well as our close attention to her needs. We are optimistic at this point.

I'm sure most of you have experienced the illness of a loved one, and during those trying times, thoughts of romance have been placed on hold. That's pretty much how I feel right now.

However, we'll eventually return to the frame of mind that generated thoughts of the way romance used to be. As I mentioned, we're optimistic.

'Til then (a Mills Brothers tune), our posts will be sporadic.
