Dear Carolyn, I appreciate your concern and your comments! Hopefully you'll find improvement and cure of your problems still by July! I guess I'll have to live with my problems as physiotherapy of my right arm and hand didn't show any improvement. And I think it will be the same with my left shoulder. Great entry of yours for Rick's contest!...Love, Gert

A winner for sure. This wayward soul crossed over the line a way back somewhere, but did an about-face and when stopped by an officer was able to walk the line just fine. LOve, daver
