I just looked at Mike's blog, which I haven't seen in months and thought about how I'd like to get back with my blog again. Something went wrong where I couldn't upload any pictures, so I stopped working on it. I'll try and start again. As some of you may know, I've had a wild and wooly winter (I love alliteration). I sold my house in Cincy and moved to Portland at the beginning of December, 2010. If I didn't have the help of some wonderful friends,I'd still be packing. However Mollie and Adrienne and Cara (daughter-friend) all came to my aid. Hope I didn't leave anyone out. Anyway my belongings went into a pod and then into storage in Portland, and I went to Fred and Sharon's. But all the time I was at Fred's I was nervously planning for my trip to India, which I had started to plan before I even knew the house would sell. The house had been on the market for a solid year and I had almost given up hope. But wonder of wonder, there they were, a sweet little couple who loved my sweet little house and it was gone!

Well India was wonderful and amazing. I can't tell you all about it now. I was there from January 7th to February 8th. When I came back I moved into a wonderful apartment in a 100 year old building. Now I'm trying very hard to get settled. I'm sleeping on a mattress on a frame with no box spring. The mattress keeps sinking into the floor, so I have to sleep carefully. Got to get that box spring soon! Also a headboard, so I can read in bed( my favorite occupation.) Also, I think all these electronic things are out to strangle me! The printer won't work, the Macbook is mixed up, the cell phone is broken- Verizon is sending me a new one. The home phone finally works. I think I'll go now. Hope to write more another day. Love, love, love, Judy
