    Hey everybody!! It's really me this time. This will be pretty short 'cuz I am just home on "furlough" for a couple of hours today. The great great great news is that I'll be home for good tomorrow afternoon!! I'll post more information tomorrow, but for now I'll just say that I am doing much better and so very anxious to be home. Lots of new challenges, for sure, but a very positive step!

    Thanks to you all for all of the encouraging words, cards, letters, etc. You gals are truly wonderful and have been a huge part of this healing process for me.

    I'll be back in a day or two with more...

    Jeannie--That's great news! Just in time because I was going to send you a letter tomorrow. Sorry I didn't get anything to you this week, but I lost my wonderful, sweet Agnes on Friday. Last week was terrible. It's been very difficult for all us of -- human and canine -- in our house. Please PM me your home address, as I'd love to keep corresponding. In the meantime, keep up the good work!!!
