I’ve had some up and downs these last few months, but overall…we are all still living and healthy! With the stress I’ve been under…well, let’s just say that is a miracle! I mean I’m not blaming all the bad luck on the voodoo like the Olympic relay teams, but I did entertain a fleeting thought of maybe doing a cleansing with an egg. <--- South Texas joke
