I do wish we were having the gorgeous flowers you have been showing us. Winter is not too far away here and the garden is closing down , having said that the weather is so much better than in our Summer, lovely sunny days and crisp night , wonderful for sleeping. I would love some author's names for your mystery books I have changed my preference for reading , mostly because I have read most books in our library and the ones I have requested are still coming.The Help has 512 people before me so as you can see it will be awhile. WE are having a new library in about 12 mths so looking forward to that.I am a real book reader don't like any electronic books, have to have the book in my hands.Guess I must be old fashioned. Sara, so sorry about your mother , she sounds so frail. Hug her gently from me. Re the ads at the top of our posts. Here we must have different ads to you, at the moment it is about fabric, strange.Jane getting old is a problem there is always something hurting. Please take care you have had more than your share of them, Hugs to all ,Bee in NZ.

I'm Baaaaaack!!

Hi Everyone!

Finally, I received my invitation to once more join the WWQP Chat page! I've missed you guys.
I just visited Sondra in CA and lamented that I had been unable to get back on the page since the format changed and she told me to try again. It took her about 12 requests. I guess I did a lot better; I was successful after about 3 tries.

Lots of things have happened in my life, but I am just fine. Still working in the Lab, but half-time at the moment. This suits me fine for the time being.

My Dad died on April 1st and I have been really busy with estate stuff. We had to sell his house, clean everything out, etc. I'm sure many of you have been through this already and know the amount of work involved. I miss him a lot. It was so quick. He was diagnosed in mid December of 06 with a bile duct tumor. Bad news... because in general, people don't live very long if the tumor is large. It often is because people don't show symptoms until the very end.
Although it sounds awful, at least it was quick.... unlike with my Mom. She suffered a long time. Dad had about 6 hellish weeks when he tried chemo to buy a little time. As with Mom, I think it made him go down hill all the more quickly.
Anyway, enough of that for the moment.
I haven't had time yet to catch up on some of the posts to see what's up with y'all, but I'll try to stop in more often!
