I'm sorry that you've been so sick! There are so many nasty bacterial and viral infections going around. My friend just flew to the Dominican Republic and came back with partial neck paralysis and a flu

Thanks! Beginner's luck with the nine cents I would imagine. ; )

That's too bad. I'd check with them again if it's been six years. Thank you!

¡Gracias, amigo! Sí, definitivamente he encontrado lo que me hace feliz. Lo mejor de escribir es que puedes hacerlo casi toda la vida. Fui un tonto al pensar que podría caer en una semijubilación. :)
